fanotify: Return EPERM when a process is not privileged

The fsnotify main loop has 2 bools which indicated if we processed the
inode or vfsmount mark in that particular pass through the loop. These
bool can we replaced with the inode_group and vfsmount_group variables
and actually make the code a little easier to understand.

Marks were stored on the inode and vfsmonut mark list in order from
highest memory address to lowest memory address. The code to walk those
lists thought they were in order from lowest to highest with
unpredictable results when trying to match up marks from each. 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.

This reminded me... you have two pr_debugs in fanotify_should_send_event
which output redundant information. Maybe you intended it like that so
it is selectable how much log spam you want, or if not you may want to
apply this patch.

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.

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.

The fsnotify main loop has 2 booleans which tell if a particular mark was
sent to the listeners or if it should be processed in the next pass. The
problem is that the booleans were not reset on each traversal of the loop.
So marks could get skipped even when they were not sent to the notifiers.

The fanotify code is supposed to get the group from the mark. It accidentally
only used the inode_mark. If the vfsmount_mark was set but not the inode_mark
it would deref the NULL inode_mark. Get the group from the correct place.

Fixes a regression caused by 21edad32205e97dc7ccb81a85234c77e760364c8
When file name encryption was enabled, ecryptfs_lookup() failed to use
the encrypted and encoded version of the upper, plaintext, file name
when performing a lookup in the lower file system. This made it
impossible to lookup existing encrypted file names and any newly created
files would have plaintext file names in the lower file system.

Just scrubbing some warnings so I can see real problem ones in the build
noise. For 32bit we need to coax gcc politely into believing we really
honestly intend to the casts. Using (u64)(unsigned long) means we cast from
a pointer to a type of the right size and then extend it. This stops the

We used to use i_head_snapc to keep track of which snapc the current epoch
of dirty data was dirtied under. It is used by queue_cap_snap to set up
the cap_snap. However, since we queue cap snaps for any dirty caps, not
just for dirty file data, we need to keep a valid i_head_snapc anytime
we have dirty|flushing caps. This fixes a NULL pointer deref in
queue_cap_snap when writing back dirty caps without data (e.g.,
snaptest-authwb.sh).

If we hold the EXCL cap, we cannot trust the dir stats from the MDS (num
files, subdirs) and must not incorrectly conclude that the directory is
empty. If we do, we get can bad results from lookup (bad ENOENT) and
bad readdir results.

When making a request in the virtual snapdir or a snapped portion of the
namespace, we should choose the MDS based on the first nonsnap parent (and
its caps). If that is not the best place, we will get forward hints to
find the right MDS in the cluster. This fixes ESTALE errors when using
the .snap directory and namespace with multiple MDSs.

When we snapshot dirty metadata that needs to be written back to the MDS,
include dirty xattr metadata. Make the capsnap reference the encoded
xattr blob so that it will be written back in the FLUSHSNAP op.
Also fix the capsnap creation guard to include dirty auth or file bits,
not just tests specific to dirty file data or file writes in progress
(this fixes auth metadata writeback).

We should include the xattr metadata blob in the cap update message any
time we are flushing dirty state, NOT just when we are also dropping the

The use of a completion when waiting for session shutdown during umount is
inappropriate, given the complexity of the condition. For multiple MDS's,
this resulted in the umount thread spinning, often preventing the session
close message from being processed in some cases.
Switch to a waitqueue and defined a condition helper. This cleans things
up nicely.

If we already had a RW open for a file, and get a readonly open, we were
piggybacking on the existing RW open. That's inconsistent with the
downgrade logic which blows away the RW open assuming you'll still have
a readonly open.
Also, make sure there is a readonly or writeonly open available for
locking, again to prevent bad behavior in downgrade cases when any RW
open may be lost.

It's OK for this function to return without setting filp--we do it in

And there's a legitimate case where we can hit this, since we do permit

Looks like the commit 0b8f18e3 assumed that cifs_get_inode_info() and
friends fail only due to memory allocation error when the inode is NULL
which is not the case if CIFSSMBQPathInfo() fails and returns an error.
Fix this by propagating the actual error code back.

cifs_find_smb_ses assumes that the vol->password field is a valid

If xfs_map_blocks returns EAGAIN because of lock contention we must redirty the
page and not disard the pagecache content and return an error from writepage.
We used to do this correctly, but the logic got lost during the recent
reshuffle of the writepage code.

Formatting items requires memory allocation when using delayed
logging. Currently that memory allocation is done while holding the
CIL context lock in read mode. This means that if memory allocation
takes some time (e.g. enters reclaim), we cannot push on the CIL
until the allocation(s) required by formatting complete. This can
stall CIL pushes for some time, and once a push is stalled so are
all new transaction commits.
Fix this splitting the item formatting into two steps. The first
step which does the allocation and memcpy() into the allocated
buffer is now done outside the CIL context lock, and only the CIL
insert is done inside the CIL context lock. This avoids the stall
issue.

Delayed logging adds some serialisation to the log force process to
ensure that it does not deference a bad commit context structure
when determining if a CIL push is necessary or not. It does this by
grabing the CIL context lock exclusively, then dropping it before
pushing the CIL if necessary. This causes serialisation of all log
forces and pushes regardless of whether a force is necessary or not.
As a result fsync heavy workloads (like dbench) can be significantly
slower with delayed logging than without.
To avoid this penalty, copy the current sequence from the context to
the CIL structure when they are swapped. This allows us to do
unlocked checks on the current sequence without having to worry
about dereferencing context structures that may have already been
freed. Hence we can remove the CIL context locking in the forcing
code and only call into the push code if the current context matches
the sequence we need to force.
By passing the sequence into the push code, we can check the
sequence again once we have the CIL lock held exclusive and abort if
the sequence has already been pushed. This avoids a lock round-trip
and unnecessary CIL pushes when we have racing push calls.
The result is that the regression in dbench performance goes away -
this change improves dbench performance on a ramdisk from ~2100MB/s
to ~2500MB/s. This compares favourably to not using delayed logging
which retuns ~2500MB/s for the same workload.

When we need to cover the log, we issue dummy transactions to ensure
the current log tail is on disk. Unfortunately we currently use the
root inode in the dummy transaction, and the act of committing the
transaction dirties the inode at the VFS level.
As a result, the VFS writeback of the dirty inode will prevent the
filesystem from idling long enough for the log covering state
machine to complete. The state machine gets stuck in a loop issuing
new dummy transactions to cover the log and never makes progress.
To avoid this problem, the dummy transactions should not cause
externally visible state changes. To ensure this occurs, make sure
that dummy transactions log an unchanging field in the superblock as
it's state is never propagated outside the filesystem. This allows
the log covering state machine to complete successfully and the
filesystem now correctly enters a fully idle state about 90s after
the last modification was made.
