* VFS: Sanity check mount flags passed to change_mnt_propagation()Valerie Aurora2010-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sanity check the flags passed to change_mnt_propagation(). Exactly one flag should be set. Return EINVAL otherwise. Userspace can pass in arbitrary combinations of MS_* flags to mount(). do_change_type() is called if any of MS_SHARED, MS_PRIVATE, MS_SLAVE, or MS_UNBINDABLE is set. do_change_type() clears MS_REC and then calls change_mnt_propagation() with the rest of the user-supplied flags. change_mnt_propagation() clearly assumes only one flag is set but do_change_type() does not check that this is true. For example, mount() with flags MS_SHARED | MS_RDONLY does not actually make the mount shared or read-only but does clear MNT_UNBINDABLE.

* fs: brlock vfsmount_lockNick Piggin2010-08-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fs: brlock vfsmount_lock Use a brlock for the vfsmount lock. It must be taken for write whenever modifying the mount hash or associated fields, and may be taken for read when performing mount hash lookups. A new lock is added for the mnt-id allocator, so it doesn't need to take the heavy vfsmount write-lock. The number of atomics should remain the same for fastpath rlock cases, though code would be slightly slower due to per-cpu access. Scalability is not not be much improved in common cases yet, due to other locks (ie. dcache_lock) getting in the way. However path lookups crossing mountpoints should be one case where scalability is improved (currently requiring the global lock). The slowpath is slower due to use of brlock. On a 64 core, 64 socket, 32 node Altix system (high latency to remote nodes), a simple umount microbenchmark (mount --bind mnt mnt2 ; umount mnt2 loop 1000 times), before this patch it took 6.8s, afterwards took 7.1s, about 5% slower.

* | Fix sget() race with failing mountAl Viro2010-08-09
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If sget() finds a matching superblock being set up, it'll grab an active reference to it and grab s_umount. That's fine - we'll wait for completion of foofs_get_sb() that way. However, if said foofs_get_sb() fails we'll end up holding the halfway-created superblock. deactivate_locked_super() called by foofs_get_sb() will just unlock the sucker since we are holding another active reference to it. What we need is a way to tell if superblock has been successfully set up. Unfortunately, neither ->s_root nor the check for MS_ACTIVE quite fit. Cheap and easy way, suitable for backport: new flag set by the (only) caller of ->get_sb(). If that flag isn't present by the time sget() grabbed s_umount on preexisting superblock it has found, it's seeing a stillborn and should just bury it with deactivate_locked_super() (and repeat the search). Longer term we want to set that flag in ->get_sb() instances (and check for it to distinguish between "sget() found us a live sb" and "sget() has allocated an sb, we need to set it up" in there, instead of checking ->s_root as we do now).

* | Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commitAl Viro2010-05-15
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention; we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

* VFS: Clean up shared mount flag propagationValerie Aurora2010-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The handling of mount flags in set_mnt_shared() got a little tangled up during previous cleanups, with the following problems: * MNT_PNODE_MASK is defined as a literal constant when it should be a bitwise xor of other MNT_* flags * set_mnt_shared() clears and then sets MNT_SHARED (part of MNT_PNODE_MASK) * MNT_PNODE_MASK could use a comment in mount.h * MNT_PNODE_MASK is a terrible name, change to MNT_SHARED_MASK This patch fixes these problems.

We either get CL_MAKE_SHARED (for the continuation of peer group) or CL_SLAVE (slave that is not shared) or both (beginning of peer group among slaves). Massage the code to make that explicit, kill CL_PROPAGATION test in clone_mnt() (nothing sets CL_MAKE_SHARED without CL_PROPAGATION and in clone_mnt() we are checking CL_PROPAGATION after we'd found that there's no CL_SLAVE, so the check for CL_MAKE_SHARED would do just as well).

PS: there's a large pending series reworking the refcounting and lifetime rules for vfsmounts that will, among other things, allow to rip a subtree away _without_ dissolving connections in it, to be garbage-collected when all active references are gone. It's considerably saner wrt "is the subtree busy" logics, but it's nowhere near being ready for merge at the moment; this changeset is one of the things becoming possible with that sucker, but it certainly shouldn't have been picked during this cycle.

* fs: fix overflow in sys_mount() for in-kernel callsVegard Nossum2009-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_mount() reads/copies a whole page for its "type" parameter. When do_mount_root() passes a kernel address that points to an object which is smaller than a whole page, copy_mount_options() will happily go past this memory object, possibly dereferencing "wild" pointers that could be in any state (hence the kmemcheck warning, which shows that parts of the next page are not even allocated). (The likelihood of something going wrong here is pretty low -- first of all this only applies to kernel calls to sys_mount(), which are mostly found in the boot code. Secondly, I guess if the page was not mapped, exact_copy_from_user() _would_ in fact handle it correctly because of its access_ok(), etc. checks.) But it is much nicer to avoid the dubious reads altogether, by stopping as soon as we find a NUL byte. Is there a good reason why we can't do something like this, using the already existing strndup_from_user()?

* VFS: Add VFS helper functions for setting up private namespacesTrond Myklebust2009-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this patch is to improve the remote mount path lookup support for distributed filesystems such as the NFSv4 client. When given a mount command of the form "mount server:/foo/bar /mnt", the NFSv4 client is required to look up the filehandle for "server:/", and then look up each component of the remote mount path "foo/bar" in order to find the directory that is actually going to be mounted on /mnt. Following that remote mount path may involve following symlinks, crossing server-side mount points and even following referrals to filesystem volumes on other servers. Since the standard VFS path lookup code already supports walking paths that contain all these features (using in-kernel automounts for following referrals) we would like to be able to reuse that rather than duplicate the full path traversal functionality in the NFSv4 client code. This patch therefore defines a VFS helper function create_mnt_ns(), that sets up a temporary filesystem namespace and attaches a root filesystem to it. It exports the create_mnt_ns() and put_mnt_ns() function for use by filesystem modules.

* fs: introduce mnt_clone_writenpiggin@suse.de2009-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the first patch. Before: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 After: avg = 453.12 std = 9.58257 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence) It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write if the file is open for write. After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it. A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm. Before: avg = 501.9 std = 14.7773 After: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite a bit of variation there still) It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It does increase the size of a vfsmount, however. It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in the single threaded path performance for the moment.
