* fanotify: do not recalculate the mask if the ignored mask changedEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | If fanotify sets a new bit in the ignored mask it will cause the generic fsnotify layer to recalculate the real mask. This is stupid since we didn't change that part. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fanotify: ignore events on directories unless specifically requestedEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | fanotify has a very limited number of events it sends on directories. The usefulness of these events is yet to be seen and still we send them. This is particularly painful for mount marks where one might receive many of these useless events. As such this patch will drop events on IS_DIR() inodes unless they were explictly requested with FAN_ON_DIR. This means that a mark on a directory without FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD or FAN_ON_DIR is meaningless and will result in no events ever (although it will still be allowed since detecting it is hard) Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fsnotify: rename FS_IN_ISDIR to FS_ISDIREric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | The _IN_ in the naming is reserved for flags only used by inotify. Since I am about to use this flag for fanotify rename it to be generic like the rest. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fanotify: do not send events for irregular filesEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | fanotify_should_send_event has a test to see if an object is a file or directory and does not send an event otherwise. The problem is that the test is actually checking if the object with a mark is a file or directory, not if the object the event happened on is a file or directory. We should check the latter.

* fanotify: limit number of listeners per userEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | fanotify currently has no limit on the number of listeners a given user can have open. This patch limits the total number of listeners per user to 128. This is the same as the inotify default limit. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fanotify: allow userspace to override max marksEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some fanotify groups, especially those like AV scanners, will need to place lots of marks, particularly ignore marks. Since ignore marks do not pin inodes in cache and are cleared if the inode is removed from core (usually under memory pressure) we expose an interface for listeners, with CAP_SYS_ADMIN, to override the maximum number of marks and be allowed to set and 'unlimited' number of marks. Programs which make use of this feature will be able to OOM a machine. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fanotify: limit the number of marks in a single fanotify groupEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | There is currently no limit on the number of marks a given fanotify group can have. Since fanotify is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN this was not seen as a serious DoS threat. This patch implements a default of 8192, the same as inotify to work towards removing the CAP_SYS_ADMIN gating and eliminating the default DoS'able status. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fanotify: allow userspace to override max queue depthEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | fanotify has a defualt max queue depth. This patch allows processes which explicitly request it to have an 'unlimited' queue depth. These processes need to be very careful to make sure they cannot fall far enough behind that they OOM the box. Thus this flag is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fsnotify: implement a default maximum queue depthEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently fanotify has no maximum queue depth. Since fanotify is CAP_SYS_ADMIN only this does not pose a normal user DoS issue, but it certianly is possible that an fanotify listener which can't keep up could OOM the box. This patch implements a default 16k depth. This is the same default depth used by inotify, but given fanotify's better queue merging in many situations this queue will contain many additional useful events by comparison.

* fanotify: ignore fanotify ignore marks if open writersEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fanotify will clear ignore marks if a task changes the contents of an inode. The problem is with the races around when userspace finishes checking a file and when that result is actually attached to the inode. This race was described as such: Consider the following scenario with hostile processes A and B, and victim process C: 1. Process A opens new file for writing. File check request is generated. 2. File check is performed in userspace. Check result is "file has no malware". 3. The "permit" response is delivered to kernel space. 4. File ignored mark set. 5. Process A writes dummy bytes to the file. File ignored flags are cleared. 6. Process B opens the same file for reading. File check request is generated. 7. File check is performed in userspace. Check result is "file has no malware". 8. Process A writes malware bytes to the file. There is no cached response yet. 9. The "permit" response is delivered to kernel space and is cached in fanotify. 10. File ignored mark set. 11. Now any process C will be permitted to open the malware file. There is a race between steps 8 and 10 While fanotify makes no strong guarantees about systems with hostile processes there is no reason we cannot harden against this race. We do that by simply ignoring any ignore marks if the inode has open writers (aka i_writecount > 0). (We actually do not ignore ignore marks if the FAN_MARK_SURV_MODIFY flag is set) Reported-by: Vasily Novikov <vasily.novikov@kaspersky.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fsnotify: call fsnotify_parent in perm eventsEric Paris2010-10-28

* fsnotify: correctly handle return codes from listenersEric Paris2010-10-28

* fanotify: implement fanotify listener orderingEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fanotify listeners needs to be able to specify what types of operations they are going to perform so they can be ordered appropriately between other listeners doing other types of operations. They need this to be able to make sure that things like hierarchichal storage managers will get access to inodes before processes which need the data. This patch defines 3 possible uses which groups must indicate in the fanotify_init() flags. FAN_CLASS_PRE_CONTENT FAN_CLASS_CONTENT FAN_CLASS_NOTIF Groups will receive notification in that order. The order between 2 groups in the same class is undeterministic. FAN_CLASS_PRE_CONTENT is intended to be used by listeners which need access to the inode before they are certain that the inode contains it's final data. A hierarchical storage manager should choose to use this class. FAN_CLASS_CONTENT is intended to be used by listeners which need access to the inode after it contains its intended contents. This would be the appropriate level for an AV solution or document control system. FAN_CLASS_NOTIF is intended for normal async notification about access, much the same as inotify and dnotify. Syncronous permissions events are not permitted at this class. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
* fsnotify: implement ordering between notifiersEric Paris2010-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | fanotify needs to be able to specify that some groups get events before others. They use this idea to make sure that a hierarchical storage manager gets access to files before programs which actually use them. This is purely infrastructure. Everything will have a priority of 0, but the infrastructure will exist for it to be non-zero. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

* fsnotify: use dget_parentChristoph Hellwig2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use dget_parent instead of opencoding it. This simplifies the code, but more importanly prepares for the more complicated locking for a parent dget in the dcache scale patch series. It means we do grab a reference to the parent now if need to be watched, but not with the specified mask. If this turns out to be a problem we'll have to revisit it, but for now let's keep as much as possible dcache internals inside dcache.[ch].

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

* | fanotify: disable fanotify syscallsEric Paris2010-10-11
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch disables the fanotify syscalls by just not building them and letting the cond_syscall() statements in kernel/sys_ni.c redirect them to sys_ni_syscall(). It was pointed out by Tvrtko Ursulin that the fanotify interface did not include an explicit prioritization between groups. This is necessary for fanotify to be usable for hierarchical storage management software, as they must get first access to the file, before inotify-like notifiers see the file. This feature can be added in an ABI compatible way in the next release (by using a number of bits in the flags field to carry the info) but it was suggested by Alan that maybe we should just hold off and do it in the next cycle, likely with an (new) explicit argument to the syscall. I don't like this approach best as I know people are already starting to use the current interface, but Alan is all wise and noone on list backed me up with just using what we have. I feel this is needlessly ripping the rug out from under people at the last minute, but if others think it needs to be a new argument it might be the best way forward. Three choices: Go with what we got (and implement the new feature next cycle). Add a new field right now (and implement the new feature next cycle). Wait till next cycle to release the ABI (and implement the new feature next cycle). This is number 3.

* fsnotify: drop two useless bools in the fnsotify main loopEric Paris2010-08-27
| | | | | | | | | The fsnotify main loop has 2 bools which indicated if we processed the inode or vfsmount mark in that particular pass through the loop.

* fsnotify: fix list walk orderEric Paris2010-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Marks were stored on the inode and vfsmonut mark list in order from highest memory address to lowest memory address.

It was possible that extra events would be sent to userspace when inode marks ignoring events wouldn't get matched with the vfsmount marks. This problem only affected fanotify when using both vfsmount and inode marks simultaneously. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

* fanotify: flush outstanding perm requests on group destroyEric Paris2010-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an fanotify listener is closing it may cause a deadlock between the listener and the original task doing an fs operation. If the original task is waiting for a permissions response it will be holding the srcu lock. The listener cannot clean up and exit until after that srcu lock is syncronized. Thus deadlock. The fix introduced here is to stop accepting new permissions events when a listener is shutting down and to grant permission for all outstanding events. Thus the original task will eventually release the srcu lock and the listener can complete shutdown.

* fsnotify: fix ignored mask handling between inode and vfsmount marksEric Paris2010-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The interesting 2 list lockstep walking didn't quite work out if the inode marks only had ignores and the vfsmount list requested events. The code to shortcut list traversal would not run the inode list since it didn't have real event requests. This code forces inode list traversal when a vfsmount mark matches the event type. Maybe we could add an i_fsnotify_ignored_mask field to struct inode to get the shortcut back, but it doesn't seem worth it to grow struct inode again. I bet with the recent changes to lock the way we do now it would actually not be a major perf hit to just drop i_fsnotify_mark_mask altogether. But that is for another day.

| * fsnotify: pass both the vfsmount mark and inode markEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | should_send_event() and handle_event() will both need to look up the inode event if they get a vfsmount event. Lets just pass both at the same time since we have them both after walking the lists in lockstep. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: walk the inode and vfsmount lists simultaneouslyEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently walk the list of marks on an inode followed by the list of marks on the vfsmount. These are in order (by the memory address of the group) so lets walk them both together. Eventually we can pass both the inode mark and the vfsmount mark to helpers simultaneously.

| * fsnotify: rework ignored mark flushingEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | currently ignored_mark clearing is done in a seperate list traversal before the actual list traversal to send events. There is no need for this. Do them at the same time. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: remove global fsnotify groups listsEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The global fsnotify groups lists were invented as a way to increase the performance of fsnotify by shortcutting events which were not interesting. With the changes to walk the object lists rather than global groups lists these shortcuts are not useful. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: remove group->maskEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | group->mask is now useless. It was originally a shortcut for fsnotify to save on performance. These checks are now redundant, so we remove them. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: remove the global masksEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because we walk the object->fsnotify_marks list instead of the global fsnotify groups list we don't need the fsnotify_inode_mask and fsnotify_vfsmount_mask as these were simply shortcuts in fsnotify() for performance. They are now extra checks, rip them out. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: cleanup should_send_eventEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The change to use srcu and walk the object list rather than the global fsnotify_group list means that should_send_event is no longer needed for a number of groups and can be simplified for others. Do that. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fanotify: use the mark in handler functionsEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fanotify now gets a mark in the should_send_event and handle_event functions. Rather than look up the mark themselves fanotify should just use the mark it was handed. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * dnotify: use the mark in handler functionsEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dnotify now gets a mark in the should_send_event and handle_event functions. Rather than look up the mark themselves dnotify should just use the mark it was handed. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * inotify: use the mark in handler functionsEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | inotify now gets a mark in the should_send_event and handle_event functions. Rather than look up the mark themselves inotify should just use the mark it was handed. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: send fsnotify_mark to groups in event handling functionsEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the change of fsnotify to use srcu walking the marks list instead of walking the global groups list we now know the mark in question. The code can send the mark to the group's handling functions and the groups won't have to find those marks themselves. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: Exchange list heads instead of moving elementsAndreas Gruenbacher2010-07-28

| * fsnotify: srcu to protect read side of inode and vfsmount locksEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently reading the inode->i_fsnotify_marks or vfsmount->mnt_fsnotify_marks lists are protected by a spinlock on both the read and the write side. This patch protects the read side of those lists with a new single srcu. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: use an explicit flag to indicate fsnotify_destroy_mark has been calledEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently fsnotify check is mark->group is NULL to decide if fsnotify_destroy_mark() has already been called or not. With the upcoming rcu work it is a heck of a lot easier to use an explicit flag than worry about group being set to NULL. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: use _rcu functions for mark list traversalEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In preparation for srcu locking use all _rcu appropiete functions for mark list addition, removal, and traversal. The operations are still done under a spinlock at the end of this patch. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * fsnotify: place marks on object in order of group memory addressEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | fsnotify_marks currently are placed on objects (inodes or vfsmounts) in arbitrary order. This patch places them in order of the group memory address. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * vfs/fsnotify: fsnotify_close can delay the final work in fputEric Paris2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fanotify almost works like so: user context calls fsnotify_* function with a struct file. fsnotify takes a reference on the struct path user context goes about it's buissiness at some later point in time the fsnotify listener gets the struct path fanotify listener calls dentry_open() to create a file which userspace can deal with listener drops the reference on the struct path at some later point the listener calls close() on it's new file With the switch from struct path to struct file this presents a problem for fput() and fsnotify_close(). fsnotify_close() is called when the filp has already reached 0 and __fput() wants to do it's cleanup. The solution presented here is a bit odd. If an event is created from a struct file we take a reference on the file. We check however if the f_count was already 0 and if so we take an EXTRA reference EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ZERO. In __fput() (where we know the f_count hit 0 once) we check if the f_count is non-zero and if so we drop that 'extra' ref and return without destroying the file.
