new primitive: discard_new_inode()

2018-10-10T06:56:04+00:00

commit c2b6d621c4ffe9936adf7a55c8b1c769672c306f upstream. We don't want open-by-handle picking half-set-up in-core struct inode from e.g. mkdir() having failed halfway through. In other words, we don't want such inodes returned by iget_locked() on their way to extinction. However, we can't just have them unhashed - otherwise open-by-handle immediately *after* that would've ended up creating a new in-core inode over the on-disk one that is in process of being freed right under us. Solution: new flag (I_CREATING) set by insert_inode_locked() and removed by unlock_new_inode() and a new primitive (discard_new_inode()) to be used by such halfway-through-setup failure exits instead of unlock_new_inode() / iput() combinations. That primitive unlocks new inode, but leaves I_CREATING in place. iget_locked() treats finding an I_CREATING inode as failure (-ESTALE, once we sort out the error propagation). insert_inode_locked() treats the same as instant -EBUSY. ilookup() treats those as icache miss.

make sure that __dentry_kill() always invalidates d_seq, unhashed or not

2018-08-09T22:07:15+00:00

RCU pathwalk relies upon the assumption that anything that changes ->d_inode of a dentry will invalidate its ->d_seq. That's almost true - the one exception is that the final dput() of already unhashed dentry does *not* touch ->d_seq at all. Unhashing does, though, so for anything we'd found by RCU dcache lookup we are fine. Unfortunately, we can *start* with an unhashed dentry or jump into it. We could try and be careful in the (few) places where that could happen. Or we could just make the final dput() invalidate the damn thing, unhashed or not. The latter is much simpler and easier to backport, so let's do it that way. Reported-by: "Dae R. Jeong" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Al Viro

root dentries need RCU-delayed freeing

2018-08-06T13:13:32+00:00

Since mountpoint crossing can happen without leaving lazy mode, root dentries do need the same protection against having their memory freed without RCU delay as everything else in the tree. It's partially hidden by RCU delay between detaching from the mount tree and dropping the vfsmount reference, but the starting point of pathwalk can be on an already detached mount, in which case umount-caused RCU delay has already passed by the time the lazy pathwalk grabs rcu_read_lock(). If the starting point happens to be at the root of that vfsmount *and* that vfsmount covers the entire filesystem, we get trouble.

get rid of dead code in d_find_alias()

2018-05-13T16:08:32+00:00

All "try disconnected alias if nothing else fits" logics in d_find_alias() got accidentally disabled by Neil a while ago; for most of the callers it was the right thing to do, so fixes belong in few callers that *do* want disconnected aliases. This just takes the now-dead code in d_find_alias() out. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

do d_instantiate/unlock_new_inode combinations safely

2018-05-11T19:36:37+00:00

For anything NFS-exported we do _not_ want to unlock new inode before it has grown an alias; original set of fixes got the ordering right, but missed the nasty complication in case of lockdep being enabled - unlock_new_inode() does lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key(inode) which can only be done before anyone gets a chance to touch ->i_mutex. Unfortunately, flipping the order and doing unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate() opens a window when mkdir can race with open-by-fhandle on a guessed fhandle, leading to multiple aliases for a directory inode and all the breakage that follows from that. Correct solution: a new primitive (d_instantiate_new()) combining these two in the right order - lockdep annotate, then d_instantiate(), then the rest of unlock_new_inode(). All combinations of d_instantiate() with unlock_new_inode() should be converted to that.
