logfs: remove from tree

2016-12-15T04:48:11+00:00

Logfs was introduced to the kernel in 2009, and hasn't seen any non drive-by changes since 2012, while having lots of unsolved issues including the complete lack of error handling, with more and more issues popping up without any fixes. The logfs.org domain has been bouncing from a mail, and the maintainer on the non-logfs.org domain hasn't repsonded to past queries either. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Al Viro

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

2016-04-04T17:41:08+00:00

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ; - >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.

2013-03-04T03:36:31+00:00

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

New field of struct super_block - ->s_max_links. Maximal allowed value of ->i_nlink or 0; in the latter case all checks still need to be done in ->link/->mkdir/->rename instances. Note that this limit applies both to directoris and to non-directories. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

logfs: set superblock shutdown flag after generic sb shutdown

2012-01-28T06:07:47+00:00

While unmounting the file system LogFS calls generic_shutdown_super. The function does file system independent superblock shutdown. However, it might result in call file system specific inode eviction. LogFS marks FS shutting down by setting bit LOGFS_SB_FLAG_SHUTDOWN in super->s_flags. Since, inode eviction might call truncate on inode, following BUG is observed when file system is unmounted: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at /home/prasad/logfs/segment.c:362! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU 3 Modules linked in: logfs binfmt_misc ppdev virtio_blk parport_pc lp parport psmouse floppy virtio_pci serio_raw virtio_ring virtio Pid: 1933, comm: umount Not tainted 3.0.0+ #4 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010:[] [] logfs_segment_write+0x211/0x230 [logfs] RSP: 0018:ffff880062d7b9e8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 000000000000000e RBX: ffff88006eca9000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: ffff88006fd87c40 RSI: ffffea00014ff468 RDI: ffff88007b68e000 RBP: ffff880062d7ba48 R08: 8000000020451430 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: dead000000100100 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff88006fd87c40 R13: ffffea00014ff468 R14: ffff88005ad0a460 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007f25d50ea760(0000) GS:ffff88007fd80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 0000000000d05e48 CR3: 0000000062c72000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process umount (pid: 1933, threadinfo ffff880062d7a000, task ffff880070b44500) Stack: ffff880062d7ba38 ffff88005ad0a508 0000000000001000 0000000000000000 8000000020451430 ffffea00014ff468 ffff880062d7ba48 ffff88005ad0a460 ffff880062d7bad8 ffffea00014ff468 ffff88006fd87c40 0000000000000000 Call Trace: [] logfs_write_i0+0x12e/0x190 [logfs] [] __logfs_write_rec+0x140/0x220 [logfs] [] __logfs_write_rec+0xf2/0x220 [logfs] [] logfs_write_rec+0x64/0xd0 [logfs] [] __logfs_write_buf+0x106/0x110 [logfs] [] logfs_write_buf+0x4e/0x80 [logfs] [] __logfs_write_inode+0x98/0x110 [logfs] [] logfs_truncate+0x54/0x290 [logfs] [] logfs_evict_inode+0xdc/0x190 [logfs] [] evict+0x85/0x170 [] iput+0xe6/0x1b0 [] shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree+0x218/0x280 [] shrink_dcache_for_umount+0x51/0x90 [] generic_shutdown_super+0x2c/0x100 [] logfs_kill_sb+0x57/0xf0 [logfs] [] deactivate_locked_super+0x45/0x70 [] deactivate_super+0x4a/0x70 [] mntput_no_expire+0xa4/0xf0 [] sys_umount+0x6f/0x380 [] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: 55 c8 49 8d b6 a8 00 00 00 45 89 f9 45 89 e8 4c 89 e1 4c 89 55 b8 c7 04 24 00 00 00 00 e8 68 fc ff ff 4c 8b 55 b8 e9 3c ff ff ff <0f> 0b 0f 0b c7 45 c0 00 00 00 00 e9 44 fe ff ff 66 66 66 66 66 RIP [] logfs_segment_write+0x211/0x230 [logfs] RSP ---[ end trace fe6b040cea952290 ]--- Therefore, move super->s_flags setting after the fs-indenpendent work has been finished.
