Most commonly neither I_LRU_ISOLATING nor I_SYNC are set, but the stock kernel takes a back-to-back relock trip to check for them. It probably can be avoided altogether, but for now massage things back to just one lock acquire. Signed-off-by:

According to bpftrace on these routines most calls result in cmpxchg, which already provides the same guarantee. In inode_maybe_inc_iversion elision is possible because even if the wrong value was read due to now missing smp_mb fence, the issue is going to correct itself after cmpxchg. If it appears cmpxchg wont be issued, the fence + reload are there bringing back previous behavior. Signed-off-by:

Add ability to set per-dentry mount expire timeout to autofs. There are two fairly well known automounter map formats, the autofs format and the amd format (more or less System V and Berkley). Some time ago Linux autofs added an amd map format parser that implemented a fair amount of the amd functionality. This was done within the autofs infrastructure and some functionality wasn't implemented because it either didn't make sense or required extra kernel changes. The idea was to restrict changes to be within the existing autofs functionality as much as possible and leave changes with a wider scope to be considered later. One of these changes is implementing the amd options: 1) "unmount", expire this mount according to a timeout (same as the current autofs default). 2) "nounmount", don't expire this mount (same as setting the autofs timeout to 0 except only for this specific mount) . 3) "utimeout=<seconds>", expire this mount using the specified timeout (again same as setting the autofs timeout but only for this mount). To implement these options per-dentry expire timeouts need to be implemented for autofs indirect mounts. This is because all map keys (mounts) for autofs indirect mounts use an expire timeout stored in the autofs mount super block info. structure and all indirect mounts use the same expire timeout. Now I have a request to add the "nounmount" option so I need to add the per-dentry expire handling to the kernel implementation to do this. The implementation uses the trailing path component to identify the mount (and is also used as the autofs map key) which is passed in the autofs_dev_ioctl structure path field. The expire timeout is passed in autofs_dev_ioctl timeout field (well, of the timeout union). If the passed in timeout is equal to -1 the per-dentry timeout and flag are cleared providing for the "unmount" option. If the timeout is greater than or equal to 0 the timeout is set to the value and the flag is also set. If the dentry timeout is 0 the dentry will not expire by timeout which enables the implementation of the "nounmount" option for the specific mount. When the dentry timeout is greater than zero it allows for the implementation of the "utimeout=<seconds>" option. Signed-off-by:

In do_dentry_open() the usage is: f->f_op = fops_get(inode->i_fop); In generated asm the compiler emits 2 reads from inode->i_fop instead of just one. This popped up due to false-sharing where loads from that offset end up bouncing a cacheline during parallel open. While this is going to be fixed, the spurious load does not need to be there. This makes do_dentry_open() go down from 1177 to 1154 bytes. fops_put() is patched to maintain some consistency. No functional changes. Reviewed-by:

Christian Brauner authored
During O_CREAT we unconditionally audit the parent inode. This makes it difficult to support a fastpath for O_CREAT when the file already exists because we have to drop out of RCU lookup needlessly. We worked around this by checking whether audit was actually active but that's also suboptimal. Instead, move the audit of the parent inode down into lookup_open() at a point where it's mostly certain that the file needs to be created. This also reduced the inconsistency that currently exists: while audit on the parent is done independent of whether or no the file already existed an audit on the file is only performed if it has been created. By moving the audit down a bit we emit the audit a little later but it will allow us to simplify the fastpath for O_CREAT significantly. Signed-off-by: -
Jeff Layton authored
Today, when opening a file we'll typically do a fast lookup, but if O_CREAT is set, the kernel always takes the exclusive inode lock. I assume this was done with the expectation that O_CREAT means that we always expect to do the create, but that's often not the case. Many programs set O_CREAT even in scenarios where the file already exists. This patch rearranges the pathwalk-for-open code to also attempt a fast_lookup in certain O_CREAT cases. If a positive dentry is found, the inode_lock can be avoided altogether, and if auditing isn't enabled, it can stay in rcuwalk mode for the last step_into. One notable exception that is hopefully temporary: if we're doing an rcuwalk and auditing is enabled, skip the lookup_fast. Legitimizing the dentry in that case is more expensive than taking the i_rwsem for now. Signed-off-by:

These inlines show up in the fast path (e.g., in do_dentry_open()) and induce said full barrier regarding i_flctx access when in most cases the pointer is NULL. The pointer can be safely checked before issuing the barrier, dodging it in most cases as a result. It is plausible the consume fence would be sufficient, but I don't want to go audit all callers regarding what they before calling here. Signed-off-by:

Both i_mode and noexec checks wrapped in WARN_ON stem from an artifact of the previous implementation. They used to legitimately check for the condition, but that got moved up in two commits: 633fb6ac ("exec: move S_ISREG() check earlier") 0fd338b2 ("exec: move path_noexec() check earlier") Instead of being removed said checks are WARN_ON'ed instead, which has some debug value. However, the spurious path_noexec check is racy, resulting in unwarranted warnings should someone race with setting the noexec flag. One can note there is more to perm-checking whether execve is allowed and none of the conditions are guaranteed to still hold after they were tested for. Additionally this does not validate whether the code path did any perm checking to begin with -- it will pass if the inode happens to be regular. Keep the redundant path_noexec() check even though it's mindless nonsense checking for guarantee that isn't given so drop the WARN. Reword the commentary and do small tidy ups while here.

When deactivating any type of superblock, it had to wait for the in-flight wb switches to be completed. wb switches are executed in inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() which needs to acquire the wb_switch_rwsem and races against sync_inodes_sb(). If there are too much dirty data in the superblock, the waiting time may increase significantly. For superblocks without cgroup writeback such as tmpfs, they have nothing to do with the wb swithes, so the flushing can be avoided. Signed-off-by:

Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> says: Systemd has a helper called openat_report_new() that returns whether a file was created anew or it already existed before for cases where O_CREAT has to be used without O_EXCL (cf. [1]). That apparently isn't something that's specific to systemd but it's where I noticed it. The current logic is that it first attempts to open the file without O_CREAT | O_EXCL and if it gets ENOENT the helper tries again with both flags. If that succeeds all is well. If it now reports EEXIST it retries. That works fairly well but some corner cases make this more involved. If this operates on a dangling symlink the first openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL will return ENOENT but the second openat() with O_CREAT | O_EXCL will fail with EEXIST. The reason is that openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL follows the symlink while O_CREAT | O_EXCL doesn't for security reasons. So it's not something we can really change unless we add an explicit opt-in via O_FOLLOW which seems really ugly. The caller could try and use fanotify() to register to listen for creation events in the directory before calling openat(). The caller could then compare the returned tid to its own tid to ensure that even in threaded environments it actually created the file. That might work but is a lot of work for something that should be fairly simple and I'm uncertain about it's reliability. The caller could use a bpf lsm hook to hook into security_file_open() to figure out whether they created the file. That also seems a bit wild. So let's add F_CREATED_QUERY which allows the caller to check whether they actually did create the file. That has caveats of course but I don't think they are problematic: * In multi-threaded environments a thread can only be sure that it did create the file if it calls openat() with O_CREAT. In other words, it's obviously not enough to just go through it's fdtable and check these fds because another thread could've created the file. * If there's any codepaths where an openat() with O_CREAT would yield the same struct file as that of another thread it would obviously cause wrong results. I'm not aware of any such codepaths from openat() itself. Imho, that would be a bug. * Related to the previous point, calling the new fcntl() on files created and opened via special-purpose system calls or ioctl()s would cause wrong results only if the affected subsystem a) raises FMODE_CREATED and b) may return the same struct file for two different calls. I'm not seeing anything outside of regular VFS code that raises FMODE_CREATED. There is code for b) in e.g., the drm layer where the same struct file is resurfaced but again FMODE_CREATED isn't used and it would be very misleading if it did.
