implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Currently sysfs_get_inode magically returns an inode on

The vfs depends upon filesystem methods to update the
vfs inode. Sysfs adds to the normal number of places
where the vfs inode is updated by also updatng the
vfs inode in sysfs_refresh_inode.
Typically the inode mutex is used to serialize updates
to the vfs inode, but grabbing the inode mutex in
sysfs_permission and sysfs_getattr causes deadlocks,
because sometimes the vfs calls those operations with
the inode mutex held. Therefore sysfs can not use the
inode mutex to serial updates to the vfs inode.
The sysfs_mutex is acquired in all of the routines
where sysfs updates the vfs inode, and with a small
change we can consistently protext sysfs vfs inode
updates with the sysfs_mutex. To protect the sysfs
vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex simply requires
extending the scope of sysfs_mutex in sysfs_setattr
over inode_setattr, and over inode_change_ok (so we
have an unchanging inode when we perform the check).

There is currently a bug in sysfs_sd_setattr inherited from
sysfs_setattr in 2.6.32 where the first time we set the attributes
on a sysfs file we allocate backing store but do not set the
backing store attributes. Resulting in overly restrictive
permissions on sysfs files.
The fix is to simply modify the code so that it always executes
when we update the sysfs attributes, as we did in 2.6.31 and earlier.

inode_change_ok already clears the SGID bit when necessary
so there is no reason for sysfs_setattr to carry code to do
the same, and it is good to kill the extra copy because when
I moved the code last in certain corner cases the code will
look at the wrong gid.

By teaching sysfs_revalidate to hide a dentry for
a sysfs_dirent if the sysfs_dirent has been renamed,
and by teaching sysfs_lookup to return the original
dentry if the sysfs dirent has been renamed. I can
show the results of renames correctly without having to
update the dcache during the directory rename.
This massively simplifies the rename logic allowing a lot
of weird sysfs special cases to be removed along with
a lot of now unnecesary helper code.

With the implementation of sysfs_getattr and sysfs_permission
sysfs becomes able to lazily propogate inode attribute changes
from the sysfs_dirents to the vfs inodes. This paves the way
for deleting significant chunks of now unnecessary code.
While doing this we did not reference sysfs_setattr from
sysfs_symlink_inode_operations so I added along with
sysfs_getattr and sysfs_permission.

the attributes of a vfs inode.

This patch adds a setxattr handler to the file, directory, and symlink
inode_operations structures for sysfs. The patch uses hooks introduced in the
previous patch to handle the getting and setting of security information for
the sysfs inodes. As was suggested by Eric Biederman the struct iattr in the
sysfs_dirent structure has been replaced by a structure which contains the
iattr, secdata and secdata length to allow the changes to persist in the event
that the inode representing the sysfs_dirent is evicted. Because sysfs only
stores this information when a change is made all the optional data is moved
into one dynamically allocated field.
This patch addresses an issue where SELinux was denying virtd access to the PCI
configuration entries in sysfs. The lack of setxattr handlers for sysfs
required that a single label be assigned to all entries in sysfs. Granting virtd
access to every entry in sysfs is not an acceptable solution so fine grained
labeling of sysfs is required such that individual entries can be labeled
appropriately.

The sysfs_dirent serves as both an inode and a directory entry
for sysfs. To prevent the sysfs inode numbers from being freed
prematurely hold a reference to sysfs_dirent from the sysfs inode.

sysfs allows attribute files to be truncated, e.g. using ftruncate(), with the
expected effect on their inode. For most attributes, this doesn't change the
"real" size of the file i.e. how much can be read from it. However, the
parameter validation for reading and writing binary attribute files is based
on the inode size and not the size specified in the file's bin_attribute, so it
can be broken by this. For example, if we try using dd to write to such a file:
# pwd
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:08:00.0
# ls -l config
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 1 17:35 config
# dd if=/dev/zero of=config bs=4 count=1
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
# ls -l config
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 1 17:50 config
# dd if=/dev/zero of=config bs=4 count=1 seek=128
dd: writing `config': No space left on device
1+0 records in
0+0 records out
Also, after truncation to 0, parameter validation for read and write is
disabled. Most bin_attribute read and write methods also validate the size and
offset, but for some this will allow out-of-range access. This may be a
security issue, though access to such files is often limited to root. In any
case, the validation should remain for safety's sake!)
This was previously reported in Bugzilla as bug 9867.
sysfs should ignore size changes or else refuse them (by returning -EINVAL).
This patch makes it ignore them.

Misc cleanups:
- convert bdi_cap_writeback_dirty() and friends to static inline functions
- create a flag that includes all three dirty/writeback related flags,
since almst all users will want to have them toghether

When adding or removing a sysfs_dirent, the user used to be required
to call link/unlink separately. It was for two reasons - code looked
like that before sysfs_addrm_cxt conversion and to avoid looping
through parent_sd->children list twice during removal.
Performance optimization during removal just isn't worth it. Make
sysfs_add/remove_one() call sysfs_link/unlink_sibing() implicitly.
This makes code simpler albeit slightly less efficient. This change
doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior change.

While shadow directories appear to be a good idea, the current scheme
of controlling their creation and destruction outside of sysfs appears
to be a locking and maintenance nightmare in the face of sysfs
directories dynamically coming and going. Which can now occur for
directories containing network devices when CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is
not set.
This patch removes everything from the initial shadow directory support
that allowed the shadow directory creation to be controlled at a higher
level. So except for a few bits of sysfs_rename_dir everything from
commit b592fcfe7f06c15ec11774b5be7ce0de3aa86e73 is now gone.

The original add/remove code had the following problems.
* parent's timestamps are updated on dentry instantiation. this is
incorrect with reclaimable files.
* updating parent's timestamps isn't synchronized.
* parent nlink update assumes the inode is accessible which won't be
true once directory dentries are made reclaimable.
This patch restructures add/remove paths to resolve the above
problems. Add/removal are done in the following steps.
1. sysfs_addrm_start() : acquire locks including sysfs_mutex and other
resources.
2-a. sysfs_add_one() : add new sd. linking the new sd into the
children list is caller's responsibility.
2-b. sysfs_remove_one() : remove a sd. unlinking the sd from the
children list is caller's responsibility.
3. sysfs_addrm_finish() : release all resources and clean up.
Steps 2-a and/or 2-b can be repeated multiple times.
Parent's inode is looked up during sysfs_addrm_start(). If available
(always at the moment), it's pinned and nlink is updated as sd's are
added and removed. Timestamps are updated during finish if any sd has
been added or removed. If parent's inode is not available during
start, sysfs_mutex ensures that parent inode is not created till
add/remove is complete.
All the complexity is contained inside the helper functions.
Especially, dentry/inode handling is properly hidden from the rest of
sysfs which now mostly operate on sysfs_dirents. As an added bonus,
codes which use these helpers to add and remove sysfs_dirents are now
more structured and simpler.

As kobj sysfs dentries and inodes are gonna be made reclaimable,
i_mutex can't be used to protect sysfs_dirent tree. Use sysfs_mutex
globally instead. As the whole tree is protected with sysfs_mutex,
there is no reason to keep sysfs_rename_sem. Drop it.
While at it, add docbook comments to functions which require
sysfs_mutex locking.

Replace sysfs_lock and kobj_sysfs_assoc_lock with sysfs_assoc_lock.
sysfs_lock was originally to be used to protect sysfs_dirent tree but
mutex seems better choice, so there is no reason to keep sysfs_lock
separate. Merge the two spinlocks into one.

As kobj sysfs dentries and inodes are gonna be made reclaimable,
dentry can't be used as naming token for sysfs file/directory, replace
kobj->dentry with kobj->sd. The only external interface change is
shadow directory handling. All other changes are contained in kobj
and sysfs.

Rename sysfs_dirent->s_type to s_flags, pack type into lower eight
bits and reserve the rest for flags. sysfs_type() can used to access
the type. All existing sd->s_type accesses are converted to use
sysfs_type(). While at it, type test is changed to equality test
instead of bit-and test where appropriate.

sysfs_drop_dentry() used to go through sd->s_dentry and
sd->s_parent->s_dentry to access the inodes. This is incorrect
because inode can be cached without dentry.
This patch makes sysfs_drop_dentry() access inodes using ilookup() on
sd->s_ino. This is both correct and simpler.

Make sysfs_dirent use singly linked list for its tree structure.
sysfs_link_sibling() and sysfs_unlink_sibling() functions are added to
handle simpler cases. It adds some complexity and cpu cycle overhead
but reduced memory footprint is worthwhile on big machines.
This change reduces the sizeof sysfs_dirent from 104 to 88 on 64bit
and from 60 to 52 on 32bit.

After dentry is reclaimed, sysfs always used to allocate new dentry
and inode if the file is accessed again. This causes problem with
operations which only pin the inode. For example, if inotify watch is
added to a sysfs file and the dentry for the file is reclaimed, the
next update event creates new dentry and new inode making the inotify
watch miss all the events from there on.
This patch fixes it by using iget_locked() instead of new_inode().
sysfs_new_inode() is renamed to sysfs_get_inode() and inode is
initialized iff the inode is newly allocated. sysfs_instantiate() is
responsible for unlocking new inodes.

Reorganize/clean up sysfs_new_inode() and sysfs_create().
* sysfs_init_inode() is separated out from sysfs_new_inode() and is
responsible for basic initialization.
* sysfs_instantiate() replaces the last step of sysfs_create() and is
responsible for dentry instantitaion.
* type-specific initialization is moved out to the callers.
* mode is specified only once when creating a sysfs_dirent.
* spurious list_del_init(&sd->s_sibling) dropped from create_dir()
This change is to
* prepare for inode allocation fix.
* separate alloc and init code for synchronization update.
* make dentry/inode initialization more flexible for later changes.
This patch doesn't introduce visible behavior change.

This patch reimplements sysfs_drop_dentry() such that remove_dir() can
use it to drop dentry instead of using a separate mechanism. With
this change, making directories reclaimable is much easier.
This patch used to contain fixes for two race conditions around
sd->s_dentry but that part has been separated out and included into
mainline early as commit 6aa054aadfea613a437ad0b15d38eca2b963fc0a and
dd14cbc994709a1c5a64ed3621f583c49a27e521.

Now that sysfs_dirent can be disconnected from kobject on deletion,
there is no need to orphan each attribute files. All [bin_]attribute
nodes are automatically orphaned when the parent node is deleted.
Kill attribute file orphaning.

sysfs: implement sysfs_dirent active reference and immediate disconnect
Opening a sysfs node references its associated kobject, so userland
can arbitrarily prolong lifetime of a kobject which complicates
lifetime rules in drivers. This patch implements active reference and
makes the association between kobject and sysfs immediately breakable.
Now each sysfs_dirent has two reference counts - s_count and s_active.
s_count is a regular reference count which guarantees that the
containing sysfs_dirent is accessible. As long as s_count reference
is held, all sysfs internal fields in sysfs_dirent are accessible
including s_parent and s_name.
The newly added s_active is active reference count. This is acquired
by invoking sysfs_get_active() and it's the caller's responsibility to
ensure sysfs_dirent itself is accessible (should be holding s_count
one way or the other). Dereferencing sysfs_dirent to access objects
out of sysfs proper requires active reference. This includes access
to the associated kobjects, attributes and ops.
The active references can be drained and denied by calling
sysfs_deactivate(). All active sysfs_dirents must be deactivated
after deletion but before the default reference is dropped. This
enables immediate disconnect of sysfs nodes. Once a sysfs_dirent is
deleted, it won't access any entity external to sysfs proper.
Because attr/bin_attr ops access both the node itself and its parent
for kobject, they need to hold active references to both.
sysfs_get/put_active_two() helpers are provided to help grabbing both
references. Parent's is acquired first and released last.
Unlike other operations, mmapped area lingers on after mmap() is
finished and the module implement implementing it and kobj need to
stay referenced till all the mapped pages are gone. This is
accomplished by holding one set of active references to the bin_attr
and its parent if there have been any mmap during lifetime of an
openfile. The references are dropped when the openfile is released.
This change makes sysfs lifetime rules independent from both kobject's
and module's. It not only fixes several race conditions caused by
sysfs not holding onto the proper module when referencing kobject, but
also helps fixing and simplifying lifetime management in driver model
and drivers by taking sysfs out of the equation.

Make sd->s_element a union of sysfs_elem_{dir|symlink|attr|bin_attr}
and rename it to s_elem. This is to achieve...
* some level of type checking : changing symlink to point to
sysfs_dirent instead of kobject is much safer and less painful now.
* easier / standardized dereferencing
* allow sysfs_elem_* to contain more than one entry
Where possible, pointer is obtained by directly deferencing from sd
instead of going through other entities. This reduces dependencies to
dentry, inode and kobject. to_attr() and to_bin_attr() are unused now
and removed.
This is in preparation of object reference simplification.

Add s_name to sysfs_dirent. This is to further reduce dependency to
the associated dentry. Name is copied for directories and symlinks
but not for attributes.
Where possible, name dereferences are converted to use sd->s_name.
sysfs_symlink->link_name and sysfs_get_name() are unused now and
removed.
This change allows symlink to be implemented using sysfs_dirent tree
proper, which is the last remaining dentry-dependent sysfs walk.

Allowing attribute and symlink dentries to be reclaimed means
sd->s_dentry can change dynamically. However, updates to the field
are unsynchronized leading to race conditions. This patch adds
sysfs_lock and use it to synchronize updates to sd->s_dentry.
Due to the locking around ->d_iput, the check in sysfs_drop_dentry()
is complex. sysfs_lock only protect sd->s_dentry pointer itself. The
validity of the dentry is protected by dcache_lock, so whether dentry
is alive or not can only be tested while holding both locks.
This is minimal backport of sysfs_drop_dentry() rewrite in devel
branch.
