mm: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() in file_has_valid_mmap_hooks()
Having encountered a trinity report in linux-next (Linked in the 'Closes'
tag) it appears that there are legitimate situations where a file-backed
mapping can be acquired but no file->f_op->mmap or
file->f_op->mmap_prepare is set, at which point do_mmap() should simply
error out with -ENODEV.
Since previously we did not warn in this scenario and it appears we rely
upon this, restore this situation, while retaining a WARN_ON_ONCE() for
the case where both are set, which is absolutely incorrect and must be
addressed and thus always requires a warning.
If further work is required to chase down precisely what is causing this,
then we can later restore this, but it makes no sense to hold up this
series to do so, as this is existing and apparently expected behaviour.

mm: introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback
Patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook", v2. During the mmap() of a file-backed mapping, we invoke the underlying driver file's mmap() callback in order to perform driver/file system initialisation of the underlying VMA. This has been a source of issues in the past, including a significant security concern relating to unwinding of error state discovered by Jann Horn, as fixed in commit |

Ext4 bug fixes and cleanups, including:
* hardening against maliciously fuzzed file systems
* backwards compatibility for the brief period when we attempted to
ignore zero-width characters
* avoid potentially BUG'ing if there is a file system corruption found
during the file system unmount
* fix free space reporting by statfs when project quotas are enabled
and the free space is less than the remaining project quota
Also improve performance when replaying a journal with a very large
number of revoke records (applicable for Lustre volumes).

Pull vfs mount namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
"This expands the ability of anonymous mount namespaces:
- Creating detached mounts from detached mounts
Currently, detached mounts can only be created from attached
mounts. This limitaton prevents various use-cases. For example, the
ability to mount a subdirectory without ever having to make the
whole filesystem visible first.
The current permission modelis:
(1) Check that the caller is privileged over the owning user
namespace of it's current mount namespace.
(2) Check that the caller is located in the mount namespace of the
mount it wants to create a detached copy of.
While it is not strictly necessary to do it this way it is
consistently applied in the new mount api. This model will also be
used when allowing the creation of detached mount from another
detached mount.
The (1) requirement can simply be met by performing the same check
as for the non-detached case, i.e., verify that the caller is
privileged over its current mount namespace.
To meet the (2) requirement it must be possible to infer the origin
mount namespace that the anonymous mount namespace of the detached
mount was created from.
The origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount is the mount
namespace that the mounts that were copied into the anonymous mount
namespace originate from.
In order to check the origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount
namespace the sequence number of the original mount namespace is
recorded in the anonymous mount namespace.
With this in place it is possible to perform an equivalent check
(2') to (2). The origin mount namespace of the anonymous mount
namespace must be the same as the caller's mount namespace. To
establish this the sequence number of the caller's mount namespace
and the origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace are
compared.
The caller is always located in a non-anonymous mount namespace
since anonymous mount namespaces cannot be setns()ed into. The
caller's mount namespace will thus always have a valid sequence
number.
The owning namespace of any mount namespace, anonymous or
non-anonymous, can never change. A mount attached to a
non-anonymous mount namespace can never change mount namespace.
If the sequence number of the non-anonymous mount namespace and the
origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace match, the
owning namespaces must match as well.
Hence, the capability check on the owning namespace of the caller's
mount namespace ensures that the caller has the ability to copy the
mount tree.
- Allow mount detached mounts on detached mounts
Currently, detached mounts can only be mounted onto attached
mounts. This limitation makes it impossible to assemble a new
private rootfs and move it into place. Instead, a detached tree
must be created, attached, then mounted open and then either moved
or detached again. Lift this restriction.
In order to allow mounting detached mounts onto other detached
mounts the same permission model used for creating detached mounts
from detached mounts can be used (cf. above).
Allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts leaves three
cases to consider:
(1) The source mount is an attached mount and the target mount is
a detached mount. This would be equivalent to moving a mount
between different mount namespaces. A caller could move an
attached mount to a detached mount. The detached mount can now
be freely attached to any mount namespace. This changes the
current delegatioh model significantly for no good reason. So
this will fail.
(2) Anonymous mount namespaces are always attached fully, i.e., it
is not possible to only attach a subtree of an anoymous mount
namespace. This simplifies the implementation and reasoning.
Consequently, if the anonymous mount namespace of the source
detached mount and the target detached mount are the identical
the mount request will fail.
(3) The source mount's anonymous mount namespace is different from
the target mount's anonymous mount namespace.
In this case the source anonymous mount namespace of the
source mount tree must be freed after its mounts have been
moved to the target anonymous mount namespace. The source
anonymous mount namespace must be empty afterwards.
By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts a caller
may do the following:
fd_tree1 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/tmp", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to two different detached mount trees
that belong to two different anonymous mount namespace.
It is important to note that fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 both refer to
the root of their respective anonymous mount namespaces.
By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts the
caller may now do:
move_mount(fd_tree1, "", fd_tree2, "",
MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH | MOVE_MOUNT_T_EMPTY_PATH)
This will cause the detached mount referred to by fd_tree1 to be
mounted on top of the detached mount referred to by fd_tree2.
Thus, the detached mount fd_tree1 is moved from its separate
anonymous mount namespace into fd_tree2's anonymous mount
namespace.
It also means that while fd_tree2 continues to refer to the root of
its respective anonymous mount namespace fd_tree1 doesn't anymore.
This has the consequence that only fd_tree2 can be moved to another
anonymous or non-anonymous mount namespace. Moving fd_tree1 will
now fail as fd_tree1 doesn't refer to the root of an anoymous mount
namespace anymore.
Now fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to separate detached mount trees
referring to the same anonymous mount namespace.
This is conceptually fine. The new mount api does allow for this to
happen already via:
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt
mkdir -p /mnt/A
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt/A
fd_tree3 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE | AT_RECURSIVE)
fd_tree4 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt/A", 0)
Both fd_tree3 and fd_tree4 refer to two different detached mount
trees but both detached mount trees refer to the same anonymous
mount namespace. An as with fd_tree1 and fd_tree2, only fd_tree3
may be moved another mount namespace as fd_tree3 refers to the root
of the anonymous mount namespace just while fd_tree4 doesn't.
However, there's an important difference between the
fd_tree3/fd_tree4 and the fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example.
Closing fd_tree4 and releasing the respective struct file will have
no further effect on fd_tree3's detached mount tree.
However, closing fd_tree3 will cause the mount tree and the
respective anonymous mount namespace to be destroyed causing the
detached mount tree of fd_tree4 to be invalid for further mounting.
By allowing to mount detached mounts on detached mounts as in the
fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example both struct files will affect each other.
Both fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to struct files that have
FMODE_NEED_UNMOUNT set.
To handle this we use the fact that @fd_tree1 will have a parent
mount once it has been attached to @fd_tree2.
When dissolve_on_fput() is called the mount that has been passed in
will refer to the root of the anonymous mount namespace. If it
doesn't it would mean that mounts are leaked. So before allowing to
mount detached mounts onto detached mounts this would be a bug.
Now that detached mounts can be mounted onto detached mounts it
just means that the mount has been attached to another anonymous
mount namespace and thus dissolve_on_fput() must not unmount the
mount tree or free the anonymous mount namespace as the file
referring to the root of the namespace hasn't been closed yet.
If it had been closed yet it would be obvious because the mount
namespace would be NULL, i.e., the @fd_tree1 would have already
been unmounted. If @fd_tree1 hasn't been unmounted yet and has a
parent mount it is safe to skip any cleanup as closing @fd_tree2
will take care of all cleanup operations.
- Allow mount propagation for detached mount trees

bdev: add back PAGE_SIZE block size validation for sb_set_blocksize()
The commit titled "block/bdev: lift block size restrictions to 64k" lifted the block layer's max supported block size to 64k inside the helper blk_validate_block_size() now that we support large folios. However in lifting the block size we also removed the silly use cases many filesystems have to use sb_set_blocksize() to *verify* that the block size <= PAGE_SIZE. The call to sb_set_blocksize() was used to check the block size <= PAGE_SIZE since historically we've always supported userspace to create for example 64k block size filesystems even on 4k page size systems, but what we didn't allow was mounting them. Older filesystems have been using the check with sb_set_blocksize() for years. While, we could argue that such checks should be filesystem specific, there are much more users of sb_set_blocksize() than LBS enabled filesystem on upstream, so just do the easier thing and bring back the PAGE_SIZE check for sb_set_blocksize() users and only skip it for LBS enabled filesystems. This will ensure that tests such as generic/466 when run in a loop against say, ext4, won't try to try to actually mount a filesystem with a block size larger than your filesystem supports given your PAGE_SIZE and in the worst case crash.

VFS: Change vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry.
vfs_mkdir() does not guarantee to leave the child dentry hashed or make it positive on success, and in many such cases the filesystem had to use a different dentry which it can now return. This patch changes vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry provided by the filesystems which is hashed and positive when provided. This reduces the number of cases where the resulting dentry is not positive to a handful which don't deserve extra efforts. The only callers of vfs_mkdir() which are interested in the resulting inode are in-kernel filesystem clients: cachefiles, nfsd, smb/server. The only filesystems that don't reliably provide the inode are: - kernfs, tracefs which these clients are unlikely to be interested in - cifs in some configurations would need to do a lookup to find the created inode, but doesn't. cifs cannot be exported via NFS, is unlikely to be used by cachefiles, and smb/server only has a soft requirement for the inode, so this is unlikely to be a problem in practice. - hostfs, nfs, cifs may need to do a lookup (rarely for NFS) and it is possible for a race to make that lookup fail. Actual failure is unlikely and providing callers handle negative dentries graceful they will fail-safe. So this patch removes the lookup code in nfsd and smb/server and adjusts them to fail safe if a negative dentry is provided: - cache-files already fails safe by restarting the task from the top - it still does with this change, though it no longer calls cachefiles_put_directory() as that will crash if the dentry is negative. - nfsd reports "Server-fault" which it what it used to do if the lookup failed. This will never happen on any file-systems that it can actually export, so this is of no consequence. I removed the fh_update() call as that is not needed and out-of-place. A subsequent nfsd_create_setattr() call will call fh_update() when needed. - smb/server only wants the inode to call ksmbd_smb_inherit_owner() which updates ->i_uid (without calling notify_change() or similar) which can be safely skipping on cifs (I hope). If a different dentry is returned, the first one is put. If necessary the fact that it is new can be determined by comparing pointers. A new dentry will certainly have a new pointer (as the old is put after the new is obtained). Similarly if an error is returned (via ERR_PTR()) the original dentry is put.

fs: place f_ref to 3rd cache line in struct file to resolve false sharing
When running syscall pread in a high core count system, f_ref contends with the reading of f_mode, f_op, f_mapping, f_inode, f_flags in the same cache line. This change places f_ref to the 3rd cache line where fields are not updated as frequently as the 1st cache line, and the contention is grealy reduced according to tests.

Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *
Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

fuse: don't truncate cached, mutated symlink
Fuse allows the value of a symlink to change and this property is exploited by some filesystems (e.g. CVMFS). It has been observed, that sometimes after changing the symlink contents, the value is truncated to the old size. This is caused by fuse_getattr() racing with fuse_reverse_inval_inode(). fuse_reverse_inval_inode() updates the fuse_inode's attr_version, which results in fuse_change_attributes() exiting before updating the cached attributes This is okay, as the cached attributes remain invalid and the next call to fuse_change_attributes() will likely update the inode with the correct values. The reason this causes problems is that cached symlinks will be returned through page_get_link(), which truncates the symlink to inode->i_size. This is correct for filesystems that don't mutate symlinks, but in this case it causes bad behavior. The solution is to just remove this truncation. This can cause a regression in a filesystem that relies on supplying a symlink larger than the file size, but this is unlikely. If that happens we'd need to make this behavior conditional.

This costs a strlen() call when instatianating a symlink. Preferably it would be hidden behind VFS_WARN_ON (or compatible), but there is no such facility at the moment. With the facility in place the call can be patched out in production kernels. In the meantime, since the cost is being paid unconditionally, use the result to a fixup the bad caller.

The context in which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace handler. The new pre-content event is available only for users with global CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the system. Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has been improved and now file->f_mode encodes whether pre-content event needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file->f_mode check. As a bonus this also removes the checks whether the old FS_ACCESS event needs to be generated from the fast path. Also the place where the event is generated during page fault has been moved so now filemap_fault() generates the event if and only if there is no uptodate folio in the page cache. Also we have dropped FS_PRE_MODIFY event as current real-world users of the pre-content functionality don't really use it so let's start with the minimal useful feature set" * tag 'fsnotify_hsm_for_v6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs: (21 commits) fanotify: Fix crash in fanotify_init(2) fs: don't block write during exec on pre-content watched files fs: enable pre-content events on supported file systems ext4: add pre-content fsnotify hook for DAX faults btrfs: disable defrag on pre-content watched files xfs: add pre-content fsnotify hook for DAX faults fsnotify: generate pre-content permission event on page fault mm: don't allow huge faults for files with pre content watches fanotify: disable readahead if we have pre-content watches fanotify: allow to set errno in FAN_DENY permission response fanotify: report file range info with pre-content events fanotify: introduce FAN_PRE_ACCESS permission event fsnotify: generate pre-content permission event on truncate fsnotify: pass optional file access range in pre-content event fsnotify: introduce pre-content permission events fanotify: reserve event bit of deprecated FAN_DIR_MODIFY fanotify: rename a misnamed constant fanotify: don't skip extra event info if no info_mode is set fsnotify: check if file is actually being watched for pre-content events on open fsnotify: opt-in for permission events at file open time ... |

Pull vfs libfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This improves the stable directory offset behavior in various ways.
Stable offsets are needed so that NFS can reliably read directories on
filesystems such as tmpfs:
- Improve the end-of-directory detection
According to getdents(3), the d_off field in each returned
directory entry points to the next entry in the directory. The
d_off field in the last returned entry in the readdir buffer must
contain a valid offset value, but if it points to an actual
directory entry, then readdir/getdents can loop.
Introduce a specific fixed offset value that is placed in the d_off
field of the last entry in a directory. Some user space
applications assume that the EOD offset value is larger than the
offsets of real directory entries, so the largest valid offset
value is reserved for this purpose. This new value is never
allocated by simple_offset_add().
When ->iterate_dir() returns, getdents{64} inserts the ctx->pos
value into the d_off field of the last valid entry in the readdir
buffer. When it hits EOD, offset_readdir() sets ctx->pos to the EOD
offset value so the last entry is updated to point to the EOD
marker.
When trying to read the entry at the EOD offset, offset_readdir()
terminates immediately.
- Rely on d_children to iterate stable offset directories
Instead of using the mtree to emit entries in the order of their
offset values, use it only to map incoming ctx->pos to a starting
entry. Then use the directory's d_children list, which is already
maintained properly by the dcache, to find the next child to emit.
- Narrow the range of directory offset values returned by
simple_offset_add() to 3 .. (S32_MAX - 1) on all platforms. This
means the allocation behavior is identical on 32-bit systems,
64-bit systems, and 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels. The new
range still permits over 2 billion concurrent entries per
directory.
- Return ENOSPC when the directory offset range is exhausted. Hitting
this error is almost impossible though.
- Remove the simple_offset_empty() helper"

simple_empty() and simple_offset_empty() perform the same task. The latter's use as a canary to find bugs has not found any new issues. A subsequent patch will remove the use of the mtree for iterating directory contents, so revert back to using a similar mechanism for determining whether a directory is indeed empty.

vfs: support caching symlink lengths in inodes
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about 1.5% speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4. Filesystems opt in by calling inode_set_cached_link() when creating an inode. The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as i_devices, thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more space. Churn-wise the current readlink_copy() helper is patched to accept the size instead of calculating it.

fsnotify: introduce pre-content permission events
The new FS_PRE_ACCESS permission event is similar to FS_ACCESS_PERM, but it meant for a different use case of filling file content before access to a file range, so it has slightly different semantics. Generate FS_PRE_ACCESS/FS_ACCESS_PERM as two seperate events, so content scanners could inspect the content filled by pre-content event handler. Unlike FS_ACCESS_PERM, FS_PRE_ACCESS is also called before a file is modified by syscalls as write() and fallocate(). FS_ACCESS_PERM is reported also on blockdev and pipes, but the new pre-content events are only reported for regular files and dirs. The pre-content events are meant to be used by hierarchical storage managers that want to fill the content of files on first access. There are some specific requirements from filesystems that could be used with pre-content events, so add a flag for fs to opt-in for pre-content events explicitly before they can be used.

fsnotify: opt-in for permission events at file open time
Legacy inotify/fanotify listeners can add watches for events on inode, parent or mount and expect to get events (e.g. FS_MODIFY) on files that were already open at the time of setting up the watches. fanotify permission events are typically used by Anti-malware sofware, that is watching the entire mount and it is not common to have more that one Anti-malware engine installed on a system. To reduce the overhead of the fsnotify_file_perm() hooks on every file access, relax the semantics of the legacy FAN_ACCESS_PERM event to generate events only if there were *any* permission event listeners on the filesystem at the time that the file was opened. The new semantic is implemented by extending the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit into two FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits, that are used to store a mode for which of the events types to report. This is going to apply to the new fanotify pre-content events in order to reduce the cost of the new pre-content event vfs hooks.

For this implementation, there's a mount option for casefolding. The rest of the patchset follows a similar approach as ext4 and f2fs. The use case for this feature is similar to the use case for ext4, to better support compatibility layers (like Wine), particularly in combination with sandboxing/container tools (like Flatpak). Those containerization tools can share a subset of the host filesystem with an application. In the container, the root directory and any parent directories required for a shared directory are on tmpfs, with the shared directories bind-mounted into the container's view of the filesystem. If the host filesystem is using case-insensitive directories, then the application can do lookups inside those directories in a case-insensitive way, without this needing to be implemented in user-space. However, if the host is only sharing a subset of a case-insensitive directory with the application, then the parent directories of the mount point will be part of the container's root tmpfs.

Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains changes the changes for files for this cycle:
- Introduce a new reference counting mechanism for files.
As atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a try_cmpxchg() loop
it has O(N^2) behaviour under contention with N concurrent
operations and it is in a hot path in __fget_files_rcu().
The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an
unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make
this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in
question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow
protection.
However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory
barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and
also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts
of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack.
This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic
library.
This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent
improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads.
- Add a fastpath for find_next_zero_bit(). Skip 2-levels searching
via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that
contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8%
and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160.
- Conditionally clear full_fds_bits since it's very likely that a bit
in full_fds_bits has been cleared during __clear_open_fds(). This
improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read up to 13%, and write up to 5% on
Intel ICX 160.
- Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to
lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid
once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're
always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing
helper and remove the legacy variants.
- Remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h>.
- Avoid cmpxchg() in close_files() as nobody else has a reference to
the files_struct at that point.
- Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it.
- Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files().
- Merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() into one.
- Make __set_open_fd() set cloexec as well instead of doing it in two
separate steps"

"Features:
- Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks
Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients
This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock
It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
not define its own lock() file operation
However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
exported over NFS
Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem

Pull vfs multigrain timestamps from Christian Brauner:
"This is another try at implementing multigrain timestamps. This time
with significant help from the timekeeping maintainers to reduce the
performance impact.
Thomas provided a base branch that contains the required timekeeping
interfaces for the VFS. It serves as the base for the multi-grain
timestamp work:
- Multigrain timestamps allow the kernel to use fine-grained
timestamps when an inode's attributes is being actively observed
via ->getattr(). With this support, it's possible for a file to get
a fine-grained timestamp, and another modified after it to get a
coarse-grained stamp that is earlier than the fine-grained time. If
this happens then the files can appear to have been modified in
reverse order, which breaks VFS ordering guarantees.
To prevent this, a floor value is maintained for multigrain
timestamps. Whenever a fine-grained timestamp is handed out, record
it, and when later coarse-grained stamps are handed out, ensure
they are not earlier than that value. If the coarse-grained
timestamp is earlier than the fine-grained floor, return the floor
value instead.
The timekeeper changes add a static singleton atomic64_t into
timekeeper.c that is used to keep track of the latest fine-grained
time ever handed out. This is tracked as a monotonic ktime_t value
to ensure that it isn't affected by clock jumps. Because it is
updated at different times than the rest of the timekeeper object,
the floor value is managed independently of the timekeeper via a
cmpxchg() operation, and sits on its own cacheline.
Two new public timekeeper interfaces are added:
(1) ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64_mg() fills a timespec64 with the
later of the coarse-grained clock and the floor time
(2) ktime_get_real_ts64_mg() gets the fine-grained clock value,
and tries to swap it into the floor. A timespec64 is filled
with the result.
- The VFS has always used coarse-grained timestamps when updating the
ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing
filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around
1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting
via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of
changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to
help the client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with
NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a
change attribute and are subject to the same problems with
timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with
timestamps (e.g backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would
improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the
underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata
updates.
This adds a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are
being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in
inode->i_ctime_nsec as a flag that indicates whether the current
timestamps have been queried via stat() or the like. When it's set,
we allow the kernel to use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's
necessary to make the ctime show a different value.
This solves the problem of being able to distinguish the timestamp
between updates, but introduces a new problem: it's now possible
for a file being changed to get a fine-grained timestamp. A file
that is altered just a bit later can then get a coarse-grained one
that appears older than the earlier fine-grained time. This
violates timestamp ordering guarantees.
This is where the earlier mentioned timkeeping interfaces help. A
global monotonic atomic64_t value is kept that acts as a timestamp
floor. When we go to stamp a file, we first get the latter of the
current floor value and the current coarse-grained time. If the
inode ctime hasn't been queried then we just attempt to stamp it
with that value.
If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse
time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, then we accept
that value. If it isn't, then we get a fine-grained time and try to
swap that into the global floor. Whether that succeeds or fails, we
take the resulting floor time, convert it to realtime and try to
swap that into the ctime.
We take the result of the ctime swap whether it succeeds or fails,
since either is just as valid.
Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag.
Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same
floor value as multigrain filesystems)"

fs: reduce pointer chasing in is_mgtime() test
The is_mgtime test checks whether the FS_MGTIME flag is set in the fstype. To get there from the inode though, we have to dereference 3 pointers. Add a new IOP_MGTIME flag, and have inode_init_always() set that flag when the fstype flag is set. Then, make is_mgtime test for IOP_MGTIME instead.
