9bbfc964b8 fanotify: CONFIG_HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS for sys_fanotify_mark
Please note that you need the patch below in addition, otherwise the
syscall wrapper stuff won't work on those 32 bit architectures which enable
the wrappers.

When enabled the syscall wrapper defines always take long parameters and then
cast them to whatever is needed. This approach doesn't work for the 32 bit
case where the original syscall takes a long long parameter, since we would
lose the upper 32 bits.
So syscalls with 64 bit arguments are special cases wrt to syscall wrappers
and enp up in the ugliness below (see also sys_fallocate). In addition these
special cased syscall wrappers have the drawback that ftrace syscall tracing
doesn't work on them, since they don't get defined by using the usual macros.

2a3edf8604 fanotify: fanotify_mark syscall implementation
NAME
	fanotify_mark - add, remove, or modify an fanotify mark on a
filesystem object

SYNOPSIS
	int fanotify_mark(int fanotify_fd, unsigned int flags, u64 mask,
			  int dfd, const char *pathname)

DESCRIPTION
	fanotify_mark() is used to add remove or modify a mark on a filesystem
	object.  Marks are used to indicate that the fanotify group is
	interested in events which occur on that object.  At this point in
	time marks may only be added to files and directories.

	fanotify_fd must be a file descriptor returned by fanotify_init()

	The flags field must contain exactly one of the following:

	FAN_MARK_ADD - or the bits in mask and ignored mask into the mark
	FAN_MARK_REMOVE - bitwise remove the bits in mask and ignored mark
		from the mark

	The following values can be OR'd into the flags field:

	FAN_MARK_DONT_FOLLOW - same meaning as O_NOFOLLOW as described in open(2)
	FAN_MARK_ONLYDIR - same meaning as O_DIRECTORY as described in open(2)

	dfd may be any of the following:
	AT_FDCWD: the object will be lookup up based on pathname similar
		to open(2)

	file descriptor of a directory: if pathname is not NULL the
		object to modify will be lookup up similar to openat(2)

	file descriptor of the final object: if pathname is NULL the
		object to modify will be the object referenced by dfd

	The mask is the bitwise OR of the set of events of interest such as:
	FAN_ACCESS		- object was accessed (read)
	FAN_MODIFY		- object was modified (write)
	FAN_CLOSE_WRITE		- object was writable and was closed
	FAN_CLOSE_NOWRITE	- object was read only and was closed
	FAN_OPEN		- object was opened
	FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD	- interested in objected that happen to
				  children.  Only relavent when the object
				  is a directory
	FAN_Q_OVERFLOW		- event queue overflowed (not implemented)

RETURN VALUE
	On success, this system call returns 0. On error, -1 is
	returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
	EINVAL An invalid value was specified in flags.

	EINVAL An invalid value was specified in mask.

	EINVAL An invalid value was specified in ignored_mask.

	EINVAL fanotify_fd is not a file descriptor as returned by
	fanotify_init()

	EBADF fanotify_fd is not a valid file descriptor

	EBADF dfd is not a valid file descriptor and path is NULL.

	ENOTDIR dfd is not a directory and path is not NULL

	EACCESS no search permissions on some part of the path

	ENENT file not found

	ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory is available.

CONFORMING TO
	These system calls are Linux-specific.

52c923dd07 fanotify: fanotify_init syscall implementation
NAME
	fanotify_init - initialize an fanotify group

SYNOPSIS
	int fanotify_init(unsigned int flags, unsigned int event_f_flags, int priority);

DESCRIPTION
	fanotify_init() initializes a new fanotify instance and returns a file
	descriptor associated with the new fanotify event queue.

	The following values can be OR'd into the flags field:

	FAN_NONBLOCK Set the O_NONBLOCK file status flag on the new open file description.
		Using this flag saves extra calls to fcntl(2) to achieve the same
		result.

	FAN_CLOEXEC Set the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag on the new file descriptor.
		See the description of the O_CLOEXEC flag in open(2) for reasons why
		this may be useful.

	The event_f_flags argument is unused and must be set to 0

	The priority argument is unused and must be set to 0

RETURN VALUE
	On success, this system call return a new file descriptor. On error, -1 is
	returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
	EINVAL An invalid value was specified in flags.

	EINVAL A non-zero valid was passed in event_f_flags or in priority

	ENFILE The system limit on the total number of file descriptors has been reached.

	ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory is available.

CONFORMING TO
	These system calls are Linux-specific.

9dced01a09 fanotify: do not clone on merge unless needed
Currently if 2 events are going to be merged on the notication queue with
different masks the second event will be cloned and will replace the first
event.  However if this notification queue is the only place referencing
the event in question there is no reason not to just update the event in
place.  We can tell this if the event->refcnt == 1.  Since we hold a
reference for each queue this event is on we know that when refcnt == 1
this is the only queue.  The other concern is that it might be about to be
added to a new queue, but this can't be the case since fsnotify holds a
reference on the event until it is finished adding it to queues.

ff0b16a985 fanotify: fscking all notification system
fanotify is a novel file notification system which bases notification on
giving userspace both an event type (open, close, read, write) and an open
file descriptor to the object in question.  This should address a number of
races and problems with other notification systems like inotify and dnotify
and should allow the future implementation of blocking or access controlled
notification.  These are useful for on access scanners or hierachical storage
management schemes.

This patch just implements the basics of the fsnotify functions.

7131485a93 fsnotify: mount point listeners list and global mask
currently all of the notification systems implemented select which inodes
they care about and receive messages only about those inodes (or the
children of those inodes.)  This patch begins to flesh out fsnotify support
for the concept of listeners that want to hear notification for an inode
accessed below a given monut point.  This patch implements a second list
of fsnotify groups to hold these types of groups and a second global mask
to hold the events of interest for this type of group.

The reason we want a second group list and mask is because the inode based
notification should_send_event support which makes each group look for a mark
on the given inode.  With one nfsmount listener that means that every group would
have to take the inode->i_lock, look for their mark, not find one, and return
for every operation.   By seperating vfsmount from inode listeners only when
there is a inode listener will the inode groups have to look for their
mark and take the inode lock.  vfsmount listeners will have to grab the lock and
look for a mark but there should be fewer of them, and one vfsmount listener
won't cause the i_lock to be grabbed and released for every fsnotify group
on every io operation.

the inotify event merging logic out of the generic fsnotify notification.c
and into the inotify code.  This allows each use of fsnotify to provide
their own merge functionality.

e08733446e inotify: race use after free/double free in inotify inode marks
There is a race in the inotify add/rm watch code.  A task can find and
remove a mark which doesn't have all of it's references.  This can
result in a use after free/double free situation.

Task A					Task B
------------				-----------
inotify_new_watch()
 allocate a mark (refcnt == 1)
 add it to the idr
					inotify_rm_watch()
					 inotify_remove_from_idr()
					  fsnotify_put_mark()
					      refcnt hits 0, free
 take reference because we are on idr
 [at this point it is a use after free]
 [time goes on]
 refcnt may hit 0 again, double free

The fix is to take the reference BEFORE the object can be found in the
idr.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

9e572cc987 inotify: do not reuse watch descriptors
Since commit 7e790dd5fc ("inotify: fix
error paths in inotify_update_watch") inotify changed the manor in which
it gave watch descriptors back to userspace.  Previous to this commit
inotify acted like the following:

  inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
  inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
  inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 2

but after this patch inotify would return watch descriptors like so:

  inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
  inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
  inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1

which I saw as equivalent to opening an fd where

  open(file) = 1;
  close(1);
  open(file) = 1;

seemed perfectly reasonable.  The issue is that quite a bit of userspace
apparently relies on the behavior in which watch descriptors will not be
quickly reused.  KDE relies on it, I know some selinux packages rely on
it, and I have heard complaints from other random sources such as debian
bug 558981.

Although the man page implies what we do is ok, we broke userspace so
this patch almost reverts us to the old behavior.  It is still slightly
racey and I have patches that would fix that, but they are rather large
and this will fix it for all real world cases.  The race is as follows:

 - task1 creates a watch and blocks in idr_new_watch() before it updates
   the hint.
 - task2 creates a watch and updates the hint.
 - task1 updates the hint with it's older wd
 - task removes the watch created by task2
 - task adds a new watch and will reuse the wd originally given to task2

it requires moving some locking around the hint (last_wd) but this should
solve it for the real world and be -stable safe.

As a side effect this patch papers over a bug in the lib/idr code which
is causing a large number WARN's to pop on people's system and many
reports in kerneloops.org.  I'm working on the root cause of that idr
bug seperately but this should make inotify immune to that issue.

  rename("/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename1", "/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename2")
  rename("/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename2", "/tmp/ino7UrgoJ")

The duplicate events should be coalesced into a single event. But those two
events do not be coalesced into a single event, due to some bad check in
event_compare(). It can not match the two NULL inodes as the same event.

9f0d793b52 fsnotify: do not set group for a mark before it is on the i_list
fsnotify_add_mark is supposed to add a mark to the g_list and i_list and to
set the group and inode for the mark.  fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry uses
the fact that ->group != NULL to know if this group should be destroyed or
if it's already been done.

But fsnotify_add_mark sets the group and inode before it actually adds the
mark to the i_list and g_list.  This can result in a race in inotify, it
requires 3 threads.

sys_inotify_add_watch("file")	sys_inotify_add_watch("file")	sys_inotify_rm_watch([a])
inotify_update_watch()
inotify_new_watch()
inotify_add_to_idr()
   ^--- returns wd = [a]
				inotfiy_update_watch()
				inotify_new_watch()
				inotify_add_to_idr()
				fsnotify_add_mark()
				   ^--- returns wd = [b]
				returns to userspace;
								inotify_idr_find([a])
								   ^--- gives us the pointer from task 1
fsnotify_add_mark()
   ^--- this is going to set the mark->group and mark->inode fields, but will
return -EEXIST because of the race with [b].
								fsnotify_destroy_mark()
								   ^--- since ->group != NULL we call back
									into inotify_freeing_mark() which calls
								inotify_remove_from_idr([a])

since fsnotify_add_mark() failed we call:
inotify_remove_from_idr([a])     <------WHOOPS it's not in the idr, this could
					have been any entry added later!

The fix is to make sure we don't set mark->group until we are sure the mark is
on the inode and fsnotify_add_mark will return success.

regression in that inotify never gets events.  The inotify group mask is
always 0.  This mask should be updated any time a new mark is added.

When an event has no pathname, there's no need to pad it with a null byte and

0db501bd06 inotify: Ensure we alwasy write the terminating NULL.
Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0'
byte to user space after the filename.  Since the rewrite that
terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of
event_size.  Ouch!

So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to
set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the
strange nul_inotify_event.  I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero
will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more
efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to
do.

The inotify_add_watch man page specifies that inotify_add_watch() will

current issues with multiple IN_IGNORED on a queue having tail drop

4a148ba988 inotify: check filename before dropping repeat events
inotify drops events if the last event on the queue is the same as the
current event.  But it does 2 things wrong.  First it is comparing old->inode
with new->inode.  But after an event if put on the queue the ->inode is no
longer allowed to be used.  It's possible between the last event and this new
event the inode could be reused and we would falsely match the inode's memory
address between two differing events.

The second problem is that when a file is removed fsnotify is passed the
negative dentry for the removed object rather than the postive dentry from
immediately before the removal.  This mean the (broken) inotify tail drop code
was matching the NULL ->inode of differing events.

The fix is to check the file name which is stored with events when doing the
tail drop instead of wrongly checking the address of the stored ->inode.

inotify_add_watch had a couple of problems.  The biggest being that if
inotify_add_watch was called on the same inode twice (to update or change the

fsnotify_find_mark_entry but was not being dropped at the end of the
inotify_add_watch call.  Thus if inotify_rm_watch was called although the mark
was removed from the inode, the refcnt wouldn't hit zero and we would leak
memory.

528da3e9e2 inotify: inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice
inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice for the same mark since it
is called directly in inotify_rm_watch and when the mark is being destroyed for
another reason.  As an example assume that the file being watched was just
deleted so inotify_destroy_mark_entry would get called from the path
fsnotify_inoderemove() -> fsnotify_destroy_marks_by_inode() ->
fsnotify_destroy_mark_entry() -> inotify_destroy_mark_entry().  If this
happened at the same time as userspace tried to remove a watch via
inotify_rm_watch we could attempt to remove the mark from the idr twice and
could thus double dec the ref cnt and potentially could be in a use after
free/double free situation.  The fix is to have inotify_rm_watch use the
generic recursive safe fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry() so we are sure the
inotify_destroy_mark_entry() function can only be called one.

This patch also renames the function to inotify_ingored_remove_idr() so it is
clear what is actually going on in the function.

1ef5f13c6c fsnotify: fsnotify marks on inodes pin them in core
This patch pins any inodes with an fsnotify mark in core.  The idea is that
as soon as the mark is removed from the inode->fsnotify_mark_entries list
the inode will be iput.  In reality is doesn't quite work exactly this way.
The igrab will happen when the mark is added to an inode, but the iput will
happen when the inode pointer is NULL'd inside the mark.

It's possible that 2 racing things will try to remove the mark from
different directions.  One may try to remove the mark because of an
explicit request and one might try to remove it because the inode was
deleted.  It's possible that the removal because of inode deletion will
remove the mark from the inode's list, but the removal by explicit request
will actually set entry->inode == NULL; and call the iput.  This is safe.

This patch creates a way for fsnotify groups to attach marks to inodes.
These marks have little meaning to the generic fsnotify infrastructure
and thus their meaning should be interpreted by the group that attached
them to the inode's list.

dnotify and inotify  will make use of these markings to indicate which
inodes are of interest to their respective groups.  But this implementation
has the useful property that in the future other listeners could actually
use the marks for the exact opposite reason, aka to indicate which inodes
it had NO interest in.

90586523eb fsnotify: unified filesystem notification backend
fsnotify is a backend for filesystem notification.  fsnotify does
not provide any userspace interface but does provide the basis
needed for other notification schemes such as dnotify.  fsnotify
can be extended to be the backend for inotify or the upcoming
fanotify.  fsnotify provides a mechanism for "groups" to register for
some set of filesystem events and to then deliver those events to
those groups for processing.

fsnotify has a number of benefits, the first being actually shrinking the size
of an inode.  Before fsnotify to support both dnotify and inotify an inode had

        unsigned long           i_dnotify_mask; /* Directory notify events */
        struct dnotify_struct   *i_dnotify; /* for directory notifications */
        struct list_head        inotify_watches; /* watches on this inode */
        struct mutex            inotify_mutex;  /* protects the watches list

But with fsnotify this same functionallity (and more) is done with just

        __u32                   i_fsnotify_mask; /* all events for this inode */
        struct hlist_head       i_fsnotify_mark_entries; /* marks on this inode */

That's right, inotify, dnotify, and fanotify all in 64 bits.  We used that
much space just in inotify_watches alone, before this patch set.

fsnotify object lifetime and locking is MUCH better than what we have today.
inotify locking is incredibly complex.  See 8f7b0ba1c8 as an example of
what's been busted since inception.  inotify needs to know internal semantics
of superblock destruction and unmounting to function.  The inode pinning and
vfs contortions are horrible.

no fsnotify implementers do allocation under locks.  This means things like
f04b30de3 which (due to an overabundance of caution) changes GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_NOFS can be reverted.  There are no longer any allocation rules when using
or implementing your own fsnotify listener.

fsnotify paves the way for fanotify.  In brief fanotify is a notification
mechanism that delivers the lisener both an 'event' and an open file descriptor
to the object in question.  This means that fanotify is pathname agnostic.
Some on lkml may not care for the original companies or users that pushed for
TALPA, but fanotify was designed with flexibility and input for other users in
mind.  The readahead group expressed interest in fanotify as it could be used
to profile disk access on boot without breaking the audit system.  The desktop
search groups have also expressed interest in fanotify as it solves a number
of the race conditions and problems present with managing inotify when more
than a limited number of specific files are of interest.  fanotify can provide
for a userspace access control system which makes it a clean interface for AV
vendors to hook without trying to do binary patching on the syscall table,
LSM, and everywhere else they do their things today.  With this patch series
fanotify can be implemented in less than 1200 lines of easy to review code.
Almost all of which is the socket based user interface.

This patch series builds fsnotify to the point that it can implement
dnotify and inotify_user.  Patches exist and will be sent soon after
acceptance to finish the in kernel inotify conversion (audit) and implement
fanotify.

There is what we believe to be a false positive reported by lockdep.

inotify_inode_queue_event() => take inotify_mutex => kernel_event() =>
kmalloc() => SLOB => alloc_pages_node() => page reclaim => slab reclaim =>
dcache reclaim => inotify_inode_is_dead => take inotify_mutex => deadlock

The plan is to fix this via lockdep annotation, but that is proving to be
quite involved.

The patch flips the allocation over to GFP_NFS to shut the warning up, for
the 2.6.30 release.

Hopefully we will fix this for real in 2.6.31.  I'll queue a patch in -mm
to switch it back to GFP_KERNEL so we don't forget.

aabb8fdb41 fs: avoid I_NEW inodes
To be on the safe side, it should be less fragile to exclude I_NEW inodes
from inode list scans by default (unless there is an important reason to
have them).

Normally they will get excluded (eg.  by zero refcount or writecount etc),
however it is a bit fragile for list walkers to know exactly what parts of
the inode state is set up and valid to test when in I_NEW.  So along these
lines, move I_NEW checks upward as well (sometimes taking I_FREEING etc
checks with them too -- this shouldn't be a problem should it?)

inotify_handle_get_wd() does idr_pre_get() which does a
kmem_cache_alloc() without __GFP_FS - and is hence deadlockable under
extreme MM pressure.

3632dee2f8 inotify: clean up inotify_read and fix locking problems
If userspace supplies an invalid pointer to a read() of an inotify
instance, the inotify device's event list mutex is unlocked twice.
This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure
unprotected, and we can trigger oopses by accessing the inotify
instance from different tasks concurrently.

The best fix (contributed largely by Linus) is a total rewrite
of the function in question:

4ae8978cf9 inotify: fix type errors in interfaces
The problems lie in the types used for some inotify interfaces, both at the kernel level and at the glibc level. This mail addresses the kernel problem. I will follow up with some suggestions for glibc changes.

For the sys_inotify_rm_watch() interface, the type of the 'wd' argument is
currently 'u32', it should be '__s32' .  That is Robert's suggestion, and
is consistent with the other declarations of watch descriptors in the
kernel source, in particular, the inotify_event structure in
include/linux/inotify.h:

struct inotify_event {
        __s32           wd;             /* watch descriptor */
        __u32           mask;           /* watch mask */
        __u32           cookie;         /* cookie to synchronize two events */
        __u32           len;            /* length (including nulls) of name */
        char            name[0];        /* stub for possible name */
};

The patch makes the changes needed for inotify_rm_watch().

272eb01485 filesystem notification: create fs/notify to contain all fs notification
Creating a generic filesystem notification interface, fsnotify, which will be
used by inotify, dnotify, and eventually fanotify is really starting to
clutter the fs directory.  This patch simply moves inotify and dnotify into
fs/notify/inotify and fs/notify/dnotify respectively to make both current fs/
and future notification tidier.
