324a56e16e kernfs: s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ and rename its friends accordingly
kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/
* s/sysfs_elem_symlink/kernfs_elem_symlink/
* s/sysfs_elem_attr/kernfs_elem_file/
* s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/
* s/sd/kn/ in kernfs proper
* s/parent_sd/parent/
* s/target_sd/target/
* s/dir_sd/parent/
* s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/
* misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above

Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them.  All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial.  While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

- mic / gpio renames were missing.  Spotted by kbuild test robot.

a7560a0132 sysfs: fix use-after-free in sysfs_kill_sb()
While restructuring the [u]mount path, 4b93dc9b1c ("sysfs, kernfs:
prepare mount path for kernfs") incorrectly updated sysfs_kill_sb() so
that it first kills super_block and then tries to dereference its
namespace tag to drop it.  Fix it by caching namespace tag before
killing the superblock and then drop the cached namespace tag.

9b2db6e189 sysfs: bail early from kernfs_file_mmap() to avoid spurious lockdep warning
This is v3.14 fix for the same issue that a8b1474442 ("sysfs: give
different locking key to regular and bin files") addresses for v3.13.
Due to the extensive kernfs reorganization in v3.14 branch, the same
fix couldn't be ported as-is.  The v3.13 fix was ignored while merging
it into v3.14 branch.

027a485d12 ("sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files
depending on mmap") assigned different lockdep key to
sysfs_open_file->mutex depending on whether the file implements mmap
or not in an attempt to avoid spurious lockdep warning caused by
merging of regular and bin file paths.

While this restored some of the original behavior of using different
locks (at least lockdep is concerned) for the different clases of
files.  The restoration wasn't full because now the lockdep key
assignment depends on whether the file has mmap or not instead of
whether it's a regular file or not.

This means that bin files which don't implement mmap will get assigned
the same lockdep class as regular files.  This is problematic because
file_operations for bin files still implements the mmap file operation
and checking whether the sysfs file actually implements mmap happens
in the file operation after grabbing @sysfs_open_file->mutex.  We
still end up adding locking dependency from mmap locking to
sysfs_open_file->mutex to the regular file mutex which triggers
spurious circular locking warning.

For v3.13, a8b1474442 ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular
and bin files") fixed it by giving sysfs_open_file->mutex different
lockdep keys depending on whether the file is regular or bin instead
of whether mmap exists or not; however, due to the way sysfs is now
layered behind kernfs, this approach is no longer viable.  kernfs can
tell whether a sysfs node has mmap implemented or not but can't tell
whether a bin file from a regular one.

This patch updates kernfs such that kernfs_file_mmap() checks
SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_MMAP and bail before grabbing sysfs_open_file->mutex so
that it doesn't add spurious locking dependency from mmap to
sysfs_open_file->mutex and changes sysfs so that it specifies
kernfs_ops->mmap iff the sysfs file implements mmap.  Combined, this
ensures that sysfs_open_file->mutex is grabbed under mmap path iff the
sysfs file actually implements mmap.  As sysfs_open_file->mutex is
already given a different lockdep key if mmap is implemented, this
removes the spurious locking dependency.

bfc5c17337 sysfs, kernfs: remove cross inclusions of internal headers
fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h needed to include fs/sysfs/sysfs.h because
part of kernfs core implementation was living in sysfs.

fs/sysfs/sysfs.h needed to include fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h because
include/linux/kernfs.h didn't expose enough interface.

The separation is complete and neither is true anymore.  Remove the
cross inclusion and make sysfs a proper user of kernfs.

4b93dc9b1c sysfs, kernfs: prepare mount path for kernfs
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
rearranges mount path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.

* As sysfs_super_info won't be visible outside kernfs proper,
  kernfs_super_ns() is added to allow kernfs users to access a
  super_block's namespace tag.

* Generic mount operation is separated out into kernfs_mount_ns().
  sysfs_mount() now just performs sysfs-specific permission check,
  acquires namespace tag, and invokes kernfs_mount_ns().

* Generic superblock release is separated out into kernfs_kill_sb()
  which can be used directly as file_system_type->kill_sb().  As sysfs
  needs to put the namespace tag, sysfs_kill_sb() wraps
  kernfs_kill_sb() with ns tag put.

* sysfs_dir_cachep init and sysfs_inode_init() are separated out into
  kernfs_init().  kernfs_init() uses only small amount of memory and
  trying to handle and propagate kernfs_init() failure doesn't make
  much sense.  Use SLAB_PANIC for sysfs_dir_cachep and make
  sysfs_inode_init() panic on failure.

  After this change, kernfs_init() should be called before
  sysfs_init(), fs/namespace.c::mnt_init() modified accordingly.

df394fb56c sysfs, kernfs: make super_blocks bind to different kernfs_roots
kernfs is being updated to allow multiple sysfs_dirent hierarchies so
that it can also be used by other users.  Currently, sysfs
super_blocks are always attached to one kernfs_root - sysfs_root - and
distinguished only by their namespace tags.

This patch adds sysfs_super_info->root and update
sysfs_fill/test_super() so that super_blocks are identified by the
combination of both the associated kernfs_root and namespace tag.
This allows mounting different kernfs hierarchies.

ba7443bc65 sysfs, kernfs: implement kernfs_create/destroy_root()
There currently is single kernfs hierarchy in the whole system which
is used for sysfs.  kernfs needs to support multiple hierarchies to
allow other users.  This patch introduces struct kernfs_root which
serves as the root of each kernfs hierarchy and implements
kernfs_create/destroy_root().

* Each kernfs_root is associated with a root sd (sysfs_dentry).  The
  root is freed when the root sd is released and kernfs_destory_root()
  simply invokes kernfs_remove() on the root sd.  sysfs_remove_one()
  is updated to handle release of the root sd.  Note that ps_iattr
  update in sysfs_remove_one() is trivially updated for readability.

* Root sd's are now dynamically allocated using sysfs_new_dirent().
  Update sysfs_alloc_ino() so that it gives out ino from 1 so that the
  root sd still gets ino 1.

* While kernfs currently only points to the root sd, it'll soon grow
  fields which are specific to each hierarchy.  As determining a given
  sd's root will be necessary, sd->s_dir.root is added.  This backlink
  fits better as a separate field in sd; however, sd->s_dir is inside
  union with space to spare, so use it to save space and provide
  kernfs_root() accessor to determine the root sd.

* As hierarchies may be destroyed now, each mount needs to hold onto
  the hierarchy it's attached to.  Update sysfs_fill_super() and
  sysfs_kill_sb() so that they get and put the kernfs_root
  respectively.

* sysfs_root is replaced with kernfs_root which is dynamically created
  by invoking kernfs_create_root() from sysfs_init().

This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

v2: kernfs_create_root() forgot to set @sd->priv.  Fixed.

internal states and whether sysfs is mounted or not doesn't make any
difference to sysfs's internal operation.

internal mounting doesn't server any purpose anymore.  Remove it.

kernfs_get() doesn't return the input param as its return value.  This
change is intentional.  While passing through the input increases
writability in some areas, it is unnecessary and has been shown to

517e64f578 sysfs, kernfs: revamp sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotation
Currently, sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotation uses
attribute->[s]key as the lockdep key, which forces
kernfs_create_file_ns() to assume that sysfs_dirent->priv is pointing
to a struct attribute which may not be true for non-sysfs users.  This
patch restructures the lockdep annotation such that

* kernfs_ops contains lockdep_key which is used by default for files
  created kernfs_create_file_ns().

* kernfs_create_file_ns_key() is introduced which takes an extra @key
  argument.  The created file will use the specified key for
  active_ref lockdep annotation.  If NULL is specified, lockdep for
  the file is disabled.

* sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated to use
  kernfs_create_file_ns_key() with the appropriate key from the
  attribute or NULL if ignore_lockdep is set.

This makes the lockdep annotation properly contained in kernfs while
allowing sysfs to cleanly keep its current behavior.  This patch
doesn't introduce any behavior differences.

471bd7b78b sysfs, kernfs: add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size
sysfs sets the size of regular files unconditionally at PAGE_SIZE and
takes the size of bin files from bin_attribute.  The latter is a
pretty bad interface which forces bin_attribute users to create a
separate copy of bin_attribute for each instance of the file -
e.g. pci resource files.

Add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size so that the size can be specified
separately.  This unifies inode init paths of ATTR and BIN_ATTR
identical and allows for generic size handling for kernfs.

Unfortunately, this grows the size of sysfs_dirent by sizeof(loff_t).

f6acf8bb6a sysfs, kernfs: introduce kernfs_ops
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
introduces kernfs_ops which hosts methods kernfs users implement and
updates fs/sysfs/file.c such that sysfs_kf_*() functions populate
kernfs_ops and kernfs_file_*() functions call the matching entries
from kernfs_ops.

kernfs_ops contains the following groups of methods.

* seq_show() - for kernfs files which use seq_file for reads.

* read() - for direct read implementations.  Used iff seq_show() is
  not implemented.

* write() - for writes.

* mmap() - for mmaps.

Notes:

* sysfs_elem_attr->ops is added so that kernfs_ops can be accessed
  from sysfs_dirent.  kernfs_ops() helper is added to verify locking
  and access the field.

* SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_(SEQ_SHOW|MMAP) added.  sd->s_attr->ops is accessible
  only while holding active_ref and there are cases where we want to
  take different actions depending on which ops are implemented.
  These two flags cache whether the two ops are implemented for those.

* kernfs_file_*() no longer test sysfs type but chooses different
  behaviors depending on which methods in kernfs_ops are implemented.
  The conversions are trivial except for the open path.  As
  kernfs_file_open() now decides whether to allow read/write accesses
  depending on the kernfs_ops implemented, the presence of methods in
  kobjs and attribute_bin should be propagated to kernfs_ops.

c6fb449515 sysfs, kernfs: prepare open, release, poll paths for kernfs
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
prepares the rest - open, release and poll.  There isn't much to do.
Just renaming is enough.  As sysfs_file_operations and
sysfs_bin_operations are identical now, use the same file_operations
for both - kernfs_file_operations.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

fdbffaa478 sysfs, kernfs: prepare mmap path for kernfs
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
rearranges mmap path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.

sysfs_kf_bin_mmap() which handles the interaction with bin_attribute
mmap method is factored out of sysfs_bin_mmap(), which is renamed to
kernfs_file_mmap().  All vma ops are renamed accordingly.

sysfs_bin_mmap() is updated such that it can be used for both file
types.  This will eventually allow using the same file_operations for
both file types, which is necessary to separate out kernfs.

c2b19daf67 sysfs, kernfs: prepare read path for kernfs
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
rearranges read path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.

* Regular file read path is refactored such that
  kernfs_seq_start/next/stop/show() handle all the boilerplate work
  including locking and updating event count for poll, while
  sysfs_kf_seq_show() deals with interaction with kobj show method.

* Bin file read path is refactored such that kernfs_file_direct_read()
  handles all the boilerplate work including buffer management and
  locking, while sysfs_kf_bin_read() deals with interaction with
  bin_attribute read method.

kernfs_file_read() is added.  It invokes either the seq_file or direct
read path depending on the file type.  This will eventually allow
using the same file_operations for both file types, which is necessary
to separate out kernfs.

While this patch changes the order of some operations, it shouldn't
change any visible behavior.

v2: Dropped unnecessary zeroing of @count from sysfs_kf_seq_show().
    Add comments explaining single_open() behavior.  Both suggested by
    Pavel.

v3: seq_stop() is called even after seq_start() failed.
    kernfs_seq_start() updated so that it doesn't unlock
    sysfs_open_file->mutex on failure so that kernfs_seq_stop()
    doesn't try to unlock an already unlocked mutex.  Reported by
    Fengguang.

7c6e2d362c sysfs, kernfs: replace sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with ->priv
A directory sysfs_dirent points to the associated kobj.  A regular or
bin file points to the associated [bin_]attribute.  This patch
replaces sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with void *
->priv.

This is to prepare for kernfs interface so that sysfs can specify the
private data in the same way for directories and files.  This lower
debuggability but not by much - the whole thing was overlaid in a
union anyway.  If debuggability becomes an issue, we can later add
->priv accessors which explicitly check for the sysfs_dirent type and
performs casting.

c84a3b2779 sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling, take #2
The way namespace tags are implemented in sysfs is more complicated
than necessary.  As each tag is a pointer value and required to be
non-NULL under a namespace enabled parent, there's no need to record
separately what type each tag is.  If multiple namespace types are
needed, which currently aren't, we can simply compare the tag to a set
of allowed tags in the superblock assuming that the tags, being
pointers, won't have the same value across multiple types.

This patch rips out kobj_ns_type handling from sysfs.  sysfs now has
an enable switch to turn on namespace under a node.  If enabled, all
children are required to have non-NULL namespace tags and filtered
against the super_block's tag.

kobject namespace determination is now performed in
lib/kobject.c::create_dir() making sysfs_read_ns_type() unnecessary.
The sanity checks are also moved.  create_dir() is restructured to
ease such addition.  This removes most kobject namespace knowledge
from sysfs proper which will enable proper separation and layering of
sysfs.

This is the second try.  The first one was cb26a31157 ("sysfs: drop
kobj_ns_type handling") which tried to automatically enable namespace
if there are children with non-NULL namespace tags; however, it was
broken for symlinks as they should inherit the target's tag iff
namespace is enabled in the parent.  This led to namespace filtering
enabled incorrectly for wireless net class devices through phy80211
symlinks and thus network configuration failure.  a1212d278c
("Revert "sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling"") reverted the commit.

This shouldn't introduce any behavior changes, for real.

v2: Dummy implementation of sysfs_enable_ns() for !CONFIG_SYSFS was
    missing and caused build failure.  Reported by kbuild test robot.

027a485d12 sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files depending on mmap
The following two commits implemented mmap support in the regular file
path and merged bin file support into the regular path.

 73d9714627 ("sysfs: copy bin mmap support from fs/sysfs/bin.c to fs/sysfs/file.c")

After the merge, the following commands trigger a spurious lockdep
warning.  "test-mmap-read" simply mmaps the file and dumps the
content.

This happens because one file nests sr_mutex, which nests mm->mmap_sem
under it, under of->mutex while mmap implementation naturally nests
of->mutex under mm->mmap_sem.  The warning is false positive as
of->mutex is per open-file and the two paths belong to two different
files.  This warning didn't trigger before regular and bin file
supports were merged because only bin file supported mmap and the
other side of locking happened only on regular files which used
equivalent but separate locking.

It'd be best if we give separate locking classes per file but we can't
easily do that.  Let's differentiate on ->mmap() for now.  Later we'll
add explicit file operations struct and can add per-ops lockdep key
there.

0cae60f914 sysfs: rename sysfs_assoc_lock and explain what it's about
sysfs_assoc_lock is an odd piece of locking.  In general, whoever owns
a kobject is responsible for synchronizing sysfs operations and sysfs
proper assumes that, for example, removal won't race with any other
operation; however, this doesn't work for symlinking because an entity
performing symlink doesn't usually own the target kobject and thus has
no control over its removal.

sysfs_assoc_lock synchronizes symlink operations against kobj->sd
disassociation so that symlink code doesn't end up dereferencing
already freed sysfs_dirent by racing with removal of the target
kobject.

This is quite obscure and the generic name of the lock and lack of
comments make it difficult to understand its role.  Let's rename it to
sysfs_symlink_target_lock and add comments explaining what's going on.

044e3bc333 sysfs: use generic_file_llseek() for sysfs_file_operations
13c589d5b0 ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files")
converted regular sysfs files to use seq_file.  The commit substituted
generic_file_llseek() with seq_lseek() for llseek implementation.

Before the change, all regular sysfs files were allowed to seek to any
position in [0, PAGE_SIZE] as the file size is always PAGE_SIZE and
generic_file_llseek() allows any seeking inside the range under file
size; however, seq_lseek()'s behavior is different.  It traverses the
output by repeatedly invoking ->show() until it reaches the target
offset or traversal indicates EOF.  As seq_files are fully dynamic and
may not end at all, it doesn't support seeking from the end
(SEEK_END).

Apparently, there are userland tools which uses SEEK_END to discover
the buffer size to use and the switch to seq_lseek() disturbs them as
SEEK_END fails with -EINVAL.

The only benefits of using seq_lseek() instead of
generic_file_llseek() are

* Early failure.  If traversing to certain file position should fail,
  seq_lseek() will report such failures on lseek(2) instead of the
  following read/write operations.

* EOF detection.  While SEEK_END is not supported, SEEK_SET/CUR +
  large offset can be used to detect eof - eof at the time of the seek
  anyway as the file size may change dynamically.

Both aren't necessary for sysfs or prospect kernfs users.  Revert to
genefic_file_llseek() and preserve the original behavior.

1c1365e374 sysfs: return correct error code on unimplemented mmap()
Both POSIX.1-2008 and Linux Programmer's Manual have a dedicated return
error code for a case, when a file doesn't support mmap(), it's ENODEV.

This change replaces overloaded EINVAL with ENODEV in a situation
described above for sysfs binary files.

d1c1459e45 sysfs: separate out dup filename warning into a separate function
Separate out sysfs_warn_dup() out of sysfs_add_one().  This will help
separating out the core sysfs functionalities into kernfs so that it
can be used by non-sysfs users too.

This doesn't make any functional changes.
