netfs: do not unlock and put the folio twice

2022-07-22T08:21:42+00:00

[ Upstream commit fac47b43c760ea90e64b895dba60df0327be7775 ] check_write_begin() will unlock and put the folio when return non-zero. So we should avoid unlocking and putting it twice in netfs layer. Change the way ->check_write_begin() works in the following two ways: (1) Pass it a pointer to the folio pointer, allowing it to unlock and put the folio prior to doing the stuff it wants to do, provided it clears the folio pointer. (2) Change the return values such that 0 with folio pointer set means continue, 0 with folio pointer cleared means re-get and all error codes indicating an error (no special treatment for -EAGAIN).

netfs: Fix gcc-12 warning by embedding vfs inode in netfs_i_context

2022-06-22T12:28:12+00:00

commit 874c8ca1e60b2c564a48f7e7acc40d328d5c8733 upstream. While randstruct was satisfied with using an open-coded "void *" offset cast for the netfs_i_context <-> inode casting, __builtin_object_size() as used by FORTIFY_SOURCE was not as easily fooled. This was causing the following complaint[1] from gcc v12: In file included from include/linux/string.h:253, from include/linux/ceph/ceph_debug.h:7, from fs/ceph/inode.c:2: In function 'fortify_memset_chk', inlined from 'netfs_i_context_init' at include/linux/netfs.h:326:2, inlined from 'ceph_alloc_inode' at fs/ceph/inode.c:463:2: include/linux/fortify-string.h:242:25: warning: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning] 242 | __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fix this by embedding a struct inode into struct netfs_i_context (which should perhaps be renamed to struct netfs_inode). The struct inode vfs_inode fields are then removed from the 9p, afs, ceph and cifs inode structs and vfs_inode is then simply changed to "netfs.inode" in those filesystems. Further, rename netfs_i_context to netfs_inode, get rid of the netfs_inode() function that converted a netfs_i_context pointer to an inode pointer (that can now be done with &ctx->inode) and rename the netfs_i_context() function to netfs_inode() (which is now a wrapper around container_of()). Most of the changes were done with: perl -p -i -e 's/vfs_inode/netfs.inode/'g \ `git grep -l 'vfs_inode' -- fs/{9p,afs,ceph,cifs}/*.[ch]` Kees suggested doing it with a pair structure[2] and a special declarator to insert that into the network filesystem's inode wrapper[3], but I think it's cleaner to embed it - and then it doesn't matter if struct randomisation reorders things. Dave Chinner suggested using a filesystem-specific VFS_I() function in each filesystem to convert that filesystem's own inode wrapper struct into the VFS inode struct[4]. Version #2: - Fix a couple of missed name changes due to a disabled cifs option. - Rename nfs_i_context to nfs_inode - Use "netfs" instead of "nic" as the member name in per-fs inode wrapper structs.
