[ 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 -&gt;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).

commit 8692969e9164c15474b356b9898e5b9b21a85643 upstream.

Currently, we'll call ceph_check_caps, but if we're still waiting
on the reply, we'll end up spinning around on the same inode in
flush_dirty_session_caps. Wait for the async create reply before
flushing caps.

<title>netfs: Fix gcc-12 warning by embedding vfs inode in netfs_i_context</title>

<id>urn:sha1:44db13d252a202be58afe4a1b5f507779c40501c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 874c8ca1e60b2c564a48f7e7acc40d328d5c8733 upstream.

While randstruct was satisfied with using an open-coded "void *" offset
cast for the netfs_i_context &lt;-&gt; 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 &amp;ctx-&gt;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.

[ This also undoes commit 507160f46c55 ("netfs: gcc-12: temporarily
  disable '-Wattribute-warning' for now") that is no longer needed ]

[ Upstream commit 507160f46c55913955d272ebf559d63809a8e560 ]

This is a pure band-aid so that I can continue merging stuff from people
while some of the gcc-12 fallout gets sorted out.

In particular, gcc-12 is very unhappy about the kinds of pointer
arithmetic tricks that netfs does, and that makes the fortify checks
trigger in afs and ceph:

  In function ‘fortify_memset_chk’,
      inlined from ‘netfs_i_context_init’ at include/linux/netfs.h:327:2,
      inlined from ‘afs_set_netfs_context’ at fs/afs/inode.c:61:2,
      inlined from ‘afs_root_iget’ at fs/afs/inode.c:543:2:
  include/linux/fortify-string.h:258:25: warning: call to ‘__write_overflow_field’ declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
    258 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
        |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

and the reason is that netfs_i_context_init() is passed a 'struct inode'
pointer, and then it does

        struct netfs_i_context *ctx = netfs_i_context(inode);

        memset(ctx, 0, sizeof(*ctx));

where that netfs_i_context() function just does pointer arithmetic on
the inode pointer, knowing that the netfs_i_context is laid out
immediately after it in memory.

This is all truly disgusting, since the whole "netfs_i_context is laid
out immediately after it in memory" is not actually remotely true in
general, but is just made to be that way for afs and ceph.

See for example fs/cifs/cifsglob.h:

  struct cifsInodeInfo {
        struct {
                /* These must be contiguous */
                struct inode    vfs_inode;      /* the VFS's inode record */
                struct netfs_i_context netfs_ctx; /* Netfslib context */
        };
	[...]

and realize that this is all entirely wrong, and the pointer arithmetic
that netfs_i_context() is doing is also very very wrong and wouldn't
give the right answer if netfs_ctx had different alignment rules from a
'struct inode', for example).

Anyway, that's just a long-winded way to say "the gcc-12 warning is
actually quite reasonable, and our code happens to work but is pretty
disgusting".

This is getting fixed properly, but for now I made the mistake of
thinking "the week right after the merge window tends to be calm for me
as people take a breather" and I did a sustem upgrade.  And I got gcc-12
as a result, so to continue merging fixes from people and not have the
end result drown in warnings, I am fixing all these gcc-12 issues I hit.

Including with these kinds of temporary fixes.

[ Upstream commit 825978fd6a0defc3c29d8a38b6cea76a0938d21e ]

1, mount with wsync.
2, create a file with O_RDWR, and the request was sent to mds.0:

   ceph_atomic_open()--&gt;
     ceph_mdsc_do_request(openc)
     finish_open(file, dentry, ceph_open)--&gt;
       ceph_open()--&gt;
         ceph_init_file()--&gt;
           ceph_init_file_info()--&gt;
             ceph_uninline_data()--&gt;
             {
               ...
               if (inline_version == 1 || /* initial version, no data */
                   inline_version == CEPH_INLINE_NONE)
                     goto out_unlock;
               ...
             }

The inline_version will be 1, which is the initial version for the
new create file. And here the ci-&gt;i_inline_version will keep with 1,
it's buggy.

3, buffer write to the file immediately:

   ceph_write_iter()--&gt;
     ceph_get_caps(file, need=Fw, want=Fb, ...);
     generic_perform_write()--&gt;
       a_ops-&gt;write_begin()--&gt;
         ceph_write_begin()--&gt;
           netfs_write_begin()--&gt;
             netfs_begin_read()--&gt;
               netfs_rreq_submit_slice()--&gt;
                 netfs_read_from_server()--&gt;
                   rreq-&gt;netfs_ops-&gt;issue_read()--&gt;
                     ceph_netfs_issue_read()--&gt;
                     {
                       ...
                       if (ci-&gt;i_inline_version != CEPH_INLINE_NONE &amp;&amp;
                           ceph_netfs_issue_op_inline(subreq))
                         return;
                       ...
                     }
     ceph_put_cap_refs(ci, Fwb);

The ceph_netfs_issue_op_inline() will send a getattr(Fsr) request to
mds.1.

4, then the mds.1 will request the rd lock for CInode::filelock from
the auth mds.0, the mds.0 will do the CInode::filelock state transation
from excl --&gt; sync, but it need to revoke the Fxwb caps back from the
clients.

While the kernel client has aleady held the Fwb caps and waiting for
the getattr(Fsr).

It's deadlock!

Before waiting for a request's safe reply, we will send the mdlog flush
request to the relevant MDS. And this will also flush the mdlog for all
the other unsafe requests in the same session, so we can record the last
session and no need to flush mdlog again in the next loop. But there
still have cases that it may send the mdlog flush requst twice or more,
but that should be not often.

Rename wait_unsafe_requests() to
flush_mdlog_and_wait_mdsc_unsafe_requests() to make it more
descriptive.

[ Upstream commit d7a2dc523085f8b8c60548ceedc696934aefeb0e ]

`rctime' has been a pain point in cephfs due to its buggy
nature - inconsistent values reported and those sorts.
Fixing rctime is non-trivial needing an overall redesign
of the entire nested statistics infrastructure.

As a workaround, PR

     http://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/37938

allows this extended attribute to be manually set. This allows
users to "fixup" inconsistent rctime values. While this sounds
messy, its probably the wisest approach allowing users/scripts
to workaround buggy rctime values.

The above PR enables Ceph MDS to allow manually setting
rctime extended attribute with the corresponding user-land
changes. We may as well allow the same to be done via kclient
for parity.

commit ea16567f11018e2f58e72b667b0c803ff92b8153 upstream.

The cephfs kernel client started to show  the message:

 ceph: mds0 session blocklisted

when mounting a filesystem.  This is due to the fact that the session
messages are being incorrectly decoded: the skip needs to take into
account the 'len'.

While there, fixed some whitespaces too.

The pages in the file mapping maybe reclaimed and reused by other
subsystems and the page-&gt;private maybe used as flags field or
something else, if later that pages are used by page caches again
the page-&gt;private maybe not cleared as expected.

Here will check the PG_private bit instead of the folio-&gt;private.

Currently when we create a file, we spin up an xattr buffer to send
along with the create request. If we end up doing an async create
however, then we currently pass down a zero-length xattr buffer.

Fix the code to send down the xattr buffer in req-&gt;r_pagelist. If the
xattrs span more than a page, however give up and don't try to do an
async create.
