  • commit 1e2e547a93a00ebc21582c06ca3c6cfea2a309ee upstream.

    For anything NFS-exported we do _not_ want to unlock new inode
    before it has grown an alias; original set of fixes got the
    ordering right, but missed the nasty complication in case of
    lockdep being enabled - unlock_new_inode() does
    lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key(inode)
    which can only be done before anyone gets a chance to touch
    ->i_mutex. Unfortunately, flipping the order and doing
    unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate() opens a window when
    mkdir can race with open-by-fhandle on a guessed fhandle, leading
    to multiple aliases for a directory inode and all the breakage
    that follows from that.

    Correct solution: a new primitive (d_instantiate_new())
    combining these two in the right order - lockdep annotate, then
    d_instantiate(), then the rest of unlock_new_inode(). All
    combinations of d_instantiate() with unlock_new_inode() should
    be converted to that.

  • When CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_XATTR is off, jffs2_xattr_handlers is defined as
    NULL. With sb->s_xattr == NULL, the generic_{get,set,remove}xattr
    functions produce the same result as setting the {get,set,remove}xattr
    inode operations to NULL, so there is no need for these macros.

  • We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
    did it late at lookup time. It turns out that we can simplify that
    lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
    instead of late.

    A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
    pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

    Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
    NULL pointer as a no-salt.

  • Convert the following where appropriate:

    (1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).

    (2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).

    (3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
    complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
    d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
    question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
    a ->d_automount op.

    In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
    NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
    d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
    use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).

    Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
    DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
    manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
    case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
    type of the lower dentry.

    However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
    the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.

    There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
    DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
    intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

    The following perl+coccinelle script was used:

    use strict;

    my @callers;
    open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*->d_inode\' |') ||
    die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers";
    @callers = ;
    close($fd);
    unless (@callers) {
    print "No matches\n";
    exit(0);
    }

    my @cocci = (
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISLNK(E->d_inode->i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_symlink(E)',
    '',
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISDIR(E->d_inode->i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_dir(E)',
    '',
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISREG(E->d_inode->i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_reg(E)' );

    my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci";
    open($fd, ">$coccifile") || die $coccifile;
    print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci);
    close($fd);

    foreach my $file (@callers) {
    chomp $file;
    print "Processing ", $file, "\n";
    system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 ||
    die "spatch failed";
    }

  • Just the flags; only NFS cares even about that, but there are
    legitimate uses for such argument. And getting rid of that
    completely would require splitting ->lookup() into a couple
    of methods (at least), so let's leave that alone for now...

  • SELinux would like to implement a new labeling behavior of newly created
    inodes. We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating
    process. This new behavior would also take into account the name of the
    new object when deciding the new label. This is not the (supposed) full path,
    just the last component of the path.

    This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating
    /etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these
    operations. We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some
    difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops
    to get things set up correctly. This patch does not implement new
    behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it
    does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook. If no such name
    exists it is fine to pass NULL.
