Pointer to ->free_mark callback unnecessarily occupies one long in each fsnotify_mark although they are the same for all marks from one notification group. Move the callback pointer to fsnotify_ops. Reviewed-by:

Currently we initialize mark->group only in fsnotify_add_mark_lock(). However we will need to access fsnotify_ops of corresponding group from fsnotify_put_mark() so we need mark->group initialized earlier. Do that in fsnotify_init_mark() which has a consequence that once fsnotify_init_mark() is called on a mark, the mark has to be destroyed by fsnotify_put_mark(). Reviewed-by:

When userspace task processing fanotify permission events screws up and does not respond, fsnotify_mark_srcu SRCU is held indefinitely which causes further hangs in the whole notification subsystem. Although we cannot easily solve the problem of operations blocked waiting for response from userspace, we can at least somewhat localize the damage by dropping SRCU lock before waiting for userspace response and reacquiring it when userspace responds.

Pass fsnotify_iter_info into ->handle_event() handler so that it can release and reacquire SRCU lock via fsnotify_prepare_user_wait() and fsnotify_finish_user_wait() functions. These functions also make sure current marks are appropriately pinned so that iteration protected by srcu in fsnotify() stays safe. Reviewed-by:

fanotify wants to drop fsnotify_mark_srcu lock when waiting for response from userspace so that the whole notification subsystem is not blocked during that time. This patch provides a framework for safely getting mark reference for a mark found in the object list which pins the mark in that list. We can then drop fsnotify_mark_srcu, wait for userspace response and then safely continue iteration of the object list once we reaquire fsnotify_mark_srcu. Reviewed-by:

Currently we queue all marks for destruction on group shutdown and then destroy them from fsnotify_destroy_group() instead from a worker thread which is the usual path. However worker can already be processing some list of marks to destroy so this does not make 100% all marks are really destroyed by the time group is shut down. This isn't a big problem as each mark holds group reference and thus group stays partially alive until all marks are really freed but there's no point in complicating our lives - just wait for the delayed work to be finished instead.

Instead of removing mark from object list from fsnotify_detach_mark(), remove the mark when last reference to the mark is dropped. This will allow fanotify to wait for userspace response to event without having to hold onto fsnotify_mark_srcu. To avoid pinning inodes by elevated refcount (and thus e.g. delaying file deletion) while someone holds mark reference, we detach connector from the object also from fsnotify_destroy_marks() and not only after removing last mark from the list as it was now.

Currently we queue mark into a list of marks for destruction in __fsnotify_free_mark() and keep the last mark reference dangling. After the worker waits for SRCU period, it drops the last reference to the mark which frees it. This scheme has the disadvantage that if we hold reference to a mark and drop and reacquire SRCU lock, the mark can get freed immediately which is slightly inconvenient and we will need to avoid this in the future. Move to a scheme where queueing of mark into a list of marks for destruction happens when the last reference to the mark is dropped. Also drop reference to the mark held by group list already when mark is removed from that list instead of dropping it only from the destruction worker. Reviewed-by:

Dropping mark reference can result in mark being freed. Although it should not happen in inotify_remove_from_idr() since caller should hold another reference, just don't risk lock up just after WARN_ON unnecessarily. Also fold do_inotify_remove_from_idr() into the single callsite as that function really is just two lines of real code. Reviewed-by:

Currently we free fsnotify_mark_connector structure only when inode / vfsmount is getting freed. This can however impose noticeable memory overhead when marks get attached to inodes only temporarily. So free the connector structure once the last mark is detached from the object. Since notification infrastructure can be working with the connector under the protection of fsnotify_mark_srcu, we have to be careful and free the fsnotify_mark_connector only after SRCU period passes.

So far list of marks attached to an object (inode / vfsmount) was protected by i_lock or mnt_root->d_lock. This dictates that the list must be empty before the object can be destroyed although the list is now anchored in the fsnotify_mark_connector structure. Protect the list by a spinlock in the fsnotify_mark_connector structure to decouple lifetime of a list of marks from a lifetime of the object. This also simplifies the code quite a bit since we don't have to differentiate between inode and vfsmount lists in quite a few places anymore. Reviewed-by:

After removing all the indirection it is clear that hlist_del_init_rcu(&mark->obj_list); in fsnotify_destroy_marks() is not needed as the mark gets removed from the list shortly afterwards in fsnotify_destroy_mark() -> fsnotify_detach_mark() -> fsnotify_detach_from_object(). Also there is no problem with mark being visible on object list while we call fsnotify_destroy_mark() as parallel destruction of marks from several places is properly handled (as mentioned in the comment in fsnotify_destroy_marks(). So just remove the list removal and also the stale comment. Reviewed-by:

We lock object list lock in fsnotify_detach_from_object() twice - once to detach mark and second time to recalculate mask. That is unnecessary and later it will become problematic as we will free the connector as soon as there is no mark in it. So move recalculation of fsnotify mask into the same critical section that is detaching mark. This also removes recalculation of child dentry flags from fsnotify_detach_from_object(). That is however fine. Those marks will get recalculated once some event happens on a child. Reviewed-by:

fsnotify_detach_mark() calls fsnotify_destroy_inode_mark() or fsnotify_destroy_vfsmount_mark() to remove mark from object list. These two functions are however very similar and differ only in the lock they use to protect the object list of marks. Simplify the code by removing the indirection and removing mark from the object list in a common function. Reviewed-by:

Adding notification mark to object list has been currently done through fsnotify_add_{inode|vfsmount}_mark() helpers from fsnotify_add_mark_locked() which call fsnotify_add_mark_list(). Remove this unnecessary indirection to simplify the code. Pushing all the locking to fsnotify_add_mark_list() also allows us to allocate the connector structure with GFP_KERNEL mode. Reviewed-by: -

Move pointer to inode / vfsmount from mark itself to the fsnotify_mark_connector structure. This is another step on the path towards decoupling inode / vfsmount lifetime from notification mark lifetime. Reviewed-by:

Currently notification marks are attached to object (inode or vfsmnt) by a hlist_head in the object. The list is also protected by a spinlock in the object. So while there is any mark attached to the list of marks, the object must be pinned in memory (and thus e.g. last iput() deleting inode cannot happen). Also for list iteration in fsnotify() to work, we must hold fsnotify_mark_srcu lock so that mark itself and mark->obj_list.next cannot get freed. Thus we are required to wait for response to fanotify events from userspace process with fsnotify_mark_srcu lock held. That causes issues when userspace process is buggy and does not reply to some event - basically the whole notification subsystem gets eventually stuck. So to be able to drop fsnotify_mark_srcu lock while waiting for response, we have to pin the mark in memory and make sure it stays in the object list (as removing the mark waiting for response could lead to lost notification events for groups later in the list). However we don't want inode reclaim to block on such mark as that would lead to system just locking up elsewhere. This commit is the first in the series that paves way towards solving these conflicting lifetime needs. Instead of anchoring the list of marks directly in the object, we anchor it in a dedicated structure (fsnotify_mark_connector) and just point to that structure from the object. The following commits will also add spinlock protecting the list and object pointer to the structure. Reviewed-by:

Audit tree currently uses inode pointer as a key into the hash table. Getting that from notification mark will be somewhat more difficult with coming fsnotify changes. So abstract getting of hash key from the audit chunk and inode so that we can change the method to obtain a key easily. Reviewed-by:
