commit f5c16f29bf5e57ba4051fc7785ba7f035f798c71 upstream.
13c589d5b0ac ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files")
switched sysfs from custom read implementation to seq_file to enable
later transition to kernfs. After the change, the buffer passed to
->show() is acquired through seq_get_buf(); unfortunately, this
introduces a subtle behavior change. Before the commit, the buffer
passed to ->show() was always zero as it was allocated using
get_zeroed_page(). Because seq_file doesn't clear buffers on
allocation and neither does seq_get_buf(), after the commit, depending
on the behavior of ->show(), we may end up exposing uninitialized data
to userland thus possibly altering userland visible behavior and
leaking information.Fix it by explicitly clearing the buffer.

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref and deactivates using
__kernfs_deactivate_self(), removes the self node, and restores active
ref to the dead node using __kernfs_reactivate_self() so that the ref
is balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes
an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it.

Add support for mkdir(2), rmdir(2) and rename(2) syscalls. This is
implemented through optional kernfs_dir_ops callback table which can
be specified on kernfs_create_root(). An implemented callback is
invoked when the matching syscall is invoked.As kernfs keep dcache syncs with internal representation and
revalidates dentries on each access, the implementation of these
methods is extremely simple. Each just discovers the relevant
kernfs_node(s) and invokes the requested callback which is allowed to
do any kernfs operations and the end result doesn't necessarily have
to match the expected semantics of the syscall.This will be used to convert cgroup to use kernfs instead of its own
filesystem implementation.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

Because sysfs used struct attribute which are supposed to stay
constant, sysfs didn't copy names when creating regular files. The
specified string for name was supposed to stay constant. Such
distinction isn't inherent for kernfs. kernfs_create_file[_ns]()
should be able to take the same @name as kernfs_create_dir[_ns]()As there can be huge number of sysfs attributes, we still want to be
able to use static names for sysfs attributes. This patch renames
kernfs_create_file_ns_key() to __kernfs_create_file() and adds
@name_is_static parameter so that the caller can explicitly indicate
that @name can be used without copying. kernfs is updated to use
KERNFS_STATIC_NAME to distinguish static and copied names.This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

This is v3.14 fix for the same issue that a8b14744429f ("sysfs: give
different locking key to regular and bin files") addresses for v3.13.
Due to the extensive kernfs reorganization in v3.14 branch, the same
fix couldn't be ported as-is. The v3.13 fix was ignored while merging
it into v3.14 branch.027a485d12e0 ("sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files
depending on mmap") assigned different lockdep key to
sysfs_open_file->mutex depending on whether the file implements mmap
or not in an attempt to avoid spurious lockdep warning caused by
merging of regular and bin file paths.While this restored some of the original behavior of using different
locks (at least lockdep is concerned) for the different clases of
files. The restoration wasn't full because now the lockdep key
assignment depends on whether the file has mmap or not instead of
whether it's a regular file or not.This means that bin files which don't implement mmap will get assigned
the same lockdep class as regular files. This is problematic because
file_operations for bin files still implements the mmap file operation
and checking whether the sysfs file actually implements mmap happens
in the file operation after grabbing @sysfs_open_file->mutex. We
still end up adding locking dependency from mmap locking to
sysfs_open_file->mutex to the regular file mutex which triggers
spurious circular locking warning.For v3.13, a8b14744429f ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular
and bin files") fixed it by giving sysfs_open_file->mutex different
lockdep keys depending on whether the file is regular or bin instead
of whether mmap exists or not; however, due to the way sysfs is now
layered behind kernfs, this approach is no longer viable. kernfs can
tell whether a sysfs node has mmap implemented or not but can't tell
whether a bin file from a regular one.This patch updates kernfs such that kernfs_file_mmap() checks
SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_MMAP and bail before grabbing sysfs_open_file->mutex so
that it doesn't add spurious locking dependency from mmap to
sysfs_open_file->mutex and changes sysfs so that it specifies
kernfs_ops->mmap iff the sysfs file implements mmap. Combined, this
ensures that sysfs_open_file->mutex is grabbed under mmap path iff the
sysfs file actually implements mmap. As sysfs_open_file->mutex is
already given a different lockdep key if mmap is implemented, this
removes the spurious locking dependency.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly. This patch
rearranges mount path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.* As sysfs_super_info won't be visible outside kernfs proper,
kernfs_super_ns() is added to allow kernfs users to access a
super_block's namespace tag.* Generic mount operation is separated out into kernfs_mount_ns().
sysfs_mount() now just performs sysfs-specific permission check,
acquires namespace tag, and invokes kernfs_mount_ns().* Generic superblock release is separated out into kernfs_kill_sb()
which can be used directly as file_system_type->kill_sb(). As sysfs
needs to put the namespace tag, sysfs_kill_sb() wraps
kernfs_kill_sb() with ns tag put.* sysfs_dir_cachep init and sysfs_inode_init() are separated out into
kernfs_init(). kernfs_init() uses only small amount of memory and
trying to handle and propagate kernfs_init() failure doesn't make
much sense. Use SLAB_PANIC for sysfs_dir_cachep and make
sysfs_inode_init() panic on failure.After this change, kernfs_init() should be called before
sysfs_init(), fs/namespace.c::mnt_init() modified accordingly.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

kernfs is being updated to allow multiple sysfs_dirent hierarchies so

distinguished only by their namespace tags.This patch adds sysfs_super_info->root and update

There currently is single kernfs hierarchy in the whole system which
is used for sysfs. kernfs needs to support multiple hierarchies to
allow other users. This patch introduces struct kernfs_root which
serves as the root of each kernfs hierarchy and implements
kernfs_create/destroy_root().* Each kernfs_root is associated with a root sd (sysfs_dentry). The
root is freed when the root sd is released and kernfs_destory_root()
simply invokes kernfs_remove() on the root sd. sysfs_remove_one()
is updated to handle release of the root sd. Note that ps_iattr
update in sysfs_remove_one() is trivially updated for readability.* Root sd's are now dynamically allocated using sysfs_new_dirent().
Update sysfs_alloc_ino() so that it gives out ino from 1 so that the
root sd still gets ino 1.* While kernfs currently only points to the root sd, it'll soon grow
fields which are specific to each hierarchy. As determining a given
sd's root will be necessary, sd->s_dir.root is added. This backlink
fits better as a separate field in sd; however, sd->s_dir is inside
union with space to spare, so use it to save space and provide
kernfs_root() accessor to determine the root sd.* As hierarchies may be destroyed now, each mount needs to hold onto
the hierarchy it's attached to. Update sysfs_fill_super() and
sysfs_kill_sb() so that they get and put the kernfs_root
respectively.* sysfs_root is replaced with kernfs_root which is dynamically created
by invoking kernfs_create_root() from sysfs_init().This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

e.g. pci resource files.Add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size so that the size can be specified
separately. This unifies inode init paths of ATTR and BIN_ATTR
identical and allows for generic size handling for kernfs.Unfortunately, this grows the size of sysfs_dirent by sizeof(loff_t).

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly. This patch
introduces kernfs_ops which hosts methods kernfs users implement and
updates fs/sysfs/file.c such that sysfs_kf_*() functions populate
kernfs_ops and kernfs_file_*() functions call the matching entries
from kernfs_ops.kernfs_ops contains the following groups of methods.
* seq_show() - for kernfs files which use seq_file for reads.
* read() - for direct read implementations. Used iff seq_show() is
not implemented.* write() - for writes.
* mmap() - for mmaps.
Notes:
* sysfs_elem_attr->ops is added so that kernfs_ops can be accessed
from sysfs_dirent. kernfs_ops() helper is added to verify locking
and access the field.* SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_(SEQ_SHOW|MMAP) added. sd->s_attr->ops is accessible
only while holding active_ref and there are cases where we want to
take different actions depending on which ops are implemented.
These two flags cache whether the two ops are implemented for those.* kernfs_file_*() no longer test sysfs type but chooses different
behaviors depending on which methods in kernfs_ops are implemented.
The conversions are trivial except for the open path. As
kernfs_file_open() now decides whether to allow read/write accesses
depending on the kernfs_ops implemented, the presence of methods in
kobjs and attribute_bin should be propagated to kernfs_ops.
sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated so that it propagates presence /
absence of the callbacks through _empty, _ro, _wo, _rw kernfs_ops.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
