66c7e1d319 afs: Split the dynroot stuff out and give it its own ops tables
Split the AFS dynamic root stuff out of the main directory handling file
and into its own file as they share little in common.

The dynamic root code also gets its own dentry and inode ops tables.

a4ff7401fb afs: Keep track of invalid-before version for dentry coherency
Each afs dentry is tagged with the version that the parent directory was at
last time it was validated and, currently, if this differs, the directory
is scanned and the dentry is refreshed.

However, this leads to an excessive amount of revalidation on directories
that get modified on the client without conflict with another client.  We
know there's no conflict because the parent directory's data version number
got incremented by exactly 1 on any create, mkdir, unlink, etc., therefore
we can trust the current state of the unaffected dentries when we perform a
local directory modification.

Optimise by keeping track of the last version of the parent directory that
was changed outside of the client in the parent directory's vnode and using
that to validate the dentries rather than the current version.

dd9fbcb8e1 afs: Rearrange status mapping
Rearrange the AFSFetchStatus to inode attribute mapping code in a number of
ways:

 (1) Use an XDR structure rather than a series of incremented pointer
     accesses when decoding an AFSFetchStatus object.  This allows
     out-of-order decode.

 (2) Don't store the if_version value but rather just check it and abort if
     it's not something we can handle.

 (3) Store the owner and group in the status record as raw values rather
     than converting them to kuid/kgid.  Do that when they're mapped into
     i_uid/i_gid.

 (4) Validate the type and abort code up front and abort if they're wrong.

 (5) Split the inode attribute setting out into its own function from the
     XDR decode of an AFSFetchStatus object.  This allows it to be called
     from elsewhere too.

 (6) Differentiate changes to data from changes to metadata.

 (7) Use the split-out attribute mapping function from afs_iget().

6f8880d8e6 afs: Implement @sys substitution handling
Implement the AFS feature by which @sys at the end of a pathname component
may be substituted for one of a list of values, typically naming the
operating system.  Up to 16 alternatives may be specified and these are
tried in turn until one works.  Each network namespace has[*] a separate
independent list.

Upon creation of a new network namespace, the list of values is
initialised[*] to a single OpenAFS-compatible string representing arch type
plus "_linux26".  For example, on x86_64, the sysname is "amd64_linux26".

[*] Or will, once network namespace support is finalised in kAFS.

The list may be set by:

	# for i in foo bar linux-x86_64; do echo $i; done >/proc/fs/afs/sysname

for which separate writes to the same fd are amalgamated and applied on
close.  The LF character may be used as a separator to specify multiple
items in the same write() call.

The list may be cleared by:

	# echo >/proc/fs/afs/sysname

and read by:

	# cat /proc/fs/afs/sysname
	foo
	bar
	linux-x86_64

402cb8dda9 fscache: Attach the index key and aux data to the cookie
Attach copies of the index key and auxiliary data to the fscache cookie so
that:

 (1) The callbacks to the netfs for this stuff can be eliminated.  This
     can simplify things in the cache as the information is still
     available, even after the cache has relinquished the cookie.

 (2) Simplifies the locking requirements of accessing the information as we
     don't have to worry about the netfs object going away on us.

 (3) The cache can do lazy updating of the coherency information on disk.
     As long as the cache is flushed before reboot/poweroff, there's no
     need to update the coherency info on disk every time it changes.

 (4) Cookies can be hashed or put in a tree as the index key is easily
     available.  This allows:

     (a) Checks for duplicate cookies can be made at the top fscache layer
     	 rather than down in the bowels of the cache backend.

     (b) Caching can be added to a netfs object that has a cookie if the
     	 cache is brought online after the netfs object is allocated.

A certain amount of space is made in the cookie for inline copies of the
data, but if it won't fit there, extra memory will be allocated for it.

The downside of this is that live cache operation requires more memory.

pointers are now hashed making them less useful.  Further, the debug ids

4d673da145 afs: Support the AFS dynamic root
Support the AFS dynamic root which is a pseudo-volume that doesn't connect
to any server resource, but rather is just a root directory that
dynamically creates mountpoint directories where the name of such a

Such a mount can be created thus:

	mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn

Dynamic root superblocks aren't shared except by bind mounts and
propagation.  Cell root volumes can then be mounted by referring to them by
name, e.g.:

	ls /afs/grand.central.org/
	ls /afs/.grand.central.org/

The kernel will upcall to consult the DNS if the address wasn't supplied

f8de483e74 afs: Properly reset afs_vnode (inode) fields
When an AFS inode is allocated by afs_alloc_inode(), the allocated
afs_vnode struct isn't necessarily reset from the last time it was used as
an inode because the slab constructor is only invoked once when the memory
is obtained from the page allocator.

This means that information can leak from one inode to the next because
we're not calling kmem_cache_zalloc().  Some of the information isn't
reset, in particular the permit cache pointer.

Bring the clearances up to date.

0fafdc9f88 afs: Fix file locking
Fix the AFS file locking whereby the use of the big kernel lock (which
could be slept with) was replaced by a spinlock (which couldn't).  The
problem is that the AFS code was doing stuff inside the critical section
that might call schedule(), so this is a broken transformation.

Fix this by the following means:

 (1) Use a state machine with a proper state that can only be changed under
     the spinlock rather than using a collection of bit flags.

 (2) Cache the key used for the lock and the lock type in the afs_vnode
     struct so that the manager work function doesn't have to refer to a
     file_lock struct that's been dequeued.  This makes signal handling
     safer.

 (4) Move the unlock from afs_do_unlk() to afs_fl_release_private() which
     means that unlock is achieved in other circumstances too.

 (5) Unlock the file on the server before taking the next conflicting lock.

Also change:

 (1) Check the permits on a file before actually trying the lock.

 (2) fsync the file before effecting an explicit unlock operation.  We
     don't fsync if the lock is erased otherwise as we might not be in a
     context where we can actually do that.

Further fixes:

 (1) Fixed-fileserver address rotation is made to work.  It's only used by
     the locking functions, so couldn't be tested before.

98bf40cd99 afs: Protect call->state changes against signals
Protect call->state changes against the call being prematurely terminated
due to a signal.

What can happen is that a signal causes afs_wait_for_call_to_complete() to
abort an afs_call because it's not yet complete whilst afs_deliver_to_call()
is delivering data to that call.

If the data delivery causes the state to change, this may overwrite the state
of the afs_call, making it not-yet-complete again - but no further
notifications will be forthcoming from AF_RXRPC as the rxrpc call has been
aborted and completed, so kAFS will just hang in various places waiting for
that call or on page bits that need clearing by that call.

A tracepoint to monitor call state changes is also provided.

dab17c1add afs: Fix directory read/modify race
Because parsing of the directory wasn't being done under any sort of lock,
the pages holding the directory content can get invalidated whilst the
parsing is ongoing.

Further, the directory page check function gets called outside of the page
lock, so if the page gets cleared or updated, this may return reports of
bad magic numbers in the directory page.

Also, the directory may change size whilst checking and parsing are
ongoing, so more care needs to be taken here.

Fix this by:

 (1) Perform the page check from the page filling function before we set
     PageUptodate and drop the page lock.

 (2) Check for the file having shrunk and the page having been abandoned
     before checking the page contents.

 (3) Lock the page whilst parsing it for the directory iterator.

Whilst we're at it, add a tracepoint to report check failure.

bf99a53ce2 afs: Make use of the YFS service upgrade to fully support IPv6
YFS VL servers offer an upgraded Volume Location service that can return
IPv6 addresses to fileservers and volume servers in addition to IPv4
addresses using the YFSVL.GetEndpoints operation which we should use if
it's available.

To this end:

 (1) Make rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() return the call's current service ID so
     that the caller can detect service upgrade and see what the service
     was upgraded to.

 (2) When we see a VL server address we haven't seen before, send a
     VL.GetCapabilities operation to it with the service upgrade bit set.

     If we get an upgrade to the YFS VL service, change the service ID in
     the address list for that address to use the upgraded service and set
     a flag to note that this appears to be a YFS-compatible server.

 (3) If, when a server's addresses are being looked up, we note that we
     previously detected a YFS-compatible server, then send the
     YFSVL.GetEndpoints operation rather than VL.GetAddrsU.

 (4) Build a fileserver address list from the reply of YFSVL.GetEndpoints,
     including both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.  Volume server addresses are
     discarded.

 (5) The address list is sorted by address and port now, instead of just
     address.  This allows multiple servers on the same host sitting on
     different ports.

d2ddc776a4 afs: Overhaul volume and server record caching and fileserver rotation
The current code assumes that volumes and servers are per-cell and are
never shared, but this is not enforced, and, indeed, public cells do exist
that are aliases of each other.  Further, an organisation can, say, set up
a public cell and a private cell with overlapping, but not identical, sets
of servers.  The difference is purely in the database attached to the VL
servers.

The current code will malfunction if it sees a server in two cells as it
assumes global address -> server record mappings and that each server is in
just one cell.

Further, each server may have multiple addresses - and may have addresses
of different families (IPv4 and IPv6, say).

To this end, the following structural changes are made:

 (1) Server record management is overhauled:

     (a) Server records are made independent of cell.  The namespace keeps
     	 track of them, volume records have lists of them and each vnode
     	 has a server on which its callback interest currently resides.

     (b) The cell record no longer keeps a list of servers known to be in
     	 that cell.

     (c) The server records are now kept in a flat list because there's no
     	 single address to sort on.

     (d) Server records are now keyed by their UUID within the namespace.

     (e) The addresses for a server are obtained with the VL.GetAddrsU
     	 rather than with VL.GetEntryByName, using the server's UUID as a
     	 parameter.

     (f) Cached server records are garbage collected after a period of
     	 non-use and are counted out of existence before purging is allowed
     	 to complete.  This protects the work functions against rmmod.

     (g) The servers list is now in /proc/fs/afs/servers.

 (2) Volume record management is overhauled:

     (a) An RCU-replaceable server list is introduced.  This tracks both
     	 servers and their coresponding callback interests.

     (b) The superblock is now keyed on cell record and numeric volume ID.

     (c) The volume record is now tied to the superblock which mounts it,
     	 and is activated when mounted and deactivated when unmounted.
     	 This makes it easier to handle the cache cookie without causing a
     	 double-use in fscache.

     (d) The volume record is loaded from the VLDB using VL.GetEntryByNameU
     	 to get the server UUID list.

     (e) The volume name is updated if it is seen to have changed when the
     	 volume is updated (the update is keyed on the volume ID).

 (3) The vlocation record is got rid of and VLDB records are no longer
     cached.  Sufficient information is stored in the volume record, though
     an update to a volume record is now no longer shared between related
     volumes (volumes come in bundles of three: R/W, R/O and backup).

and the following procedural changes are made:

 (1) The fileserver cursor introduced previously is now fleshed out and
     used to iterate over fileservers and their addresses.

 (2) Volume status is checked during iteration, and the server list is
     replaced if a change is detected.

 (3) Server status is checked during iteration, and the address list is
     replaced if a change is detected.

 (4) The abort code is saved into the address list cursor and -ECONNABORTED
     returned in afs_make_call() if a remote abort happened rather than
     translating the abort into an error message.  This allows actions to
     be taken depending on the abort code more easily.

     (a) If a VMOVED abort is seen then this is handled by rechecking the
     	 volume and restarting the iteration.

     (b) If a VBUSY, VRESTARTING or VSALVAGING abort is seen then this is
         handled by sleeping for a short period and retrying and/or trying
         other servers that might serve that volume.  A message is also
         displayed once until the condition has cleared.

     (c) If a VOFFLINE abort is seen, then this is handled as VBUSY for the
     	 moment.

     (d) If a VNOVOL abort is seen, the volume is rechecked in the VLDB to
     	 see if it has been deleted; if not, the fileserver is probably
     	 indicating that the volume couldn't be attached and needs
     	 salvaging.

     (e) If statfs() sees one of these aborts, it does not sleep, but
     	 rather returns an error, so as not to block the umount program.

 (5) The fileserver iteration functions in vnode.c are now merged into
     their callers and more heavily macroised around the cursor.  vnode.c
     is removed.

 (6) Operations on a particular vnode are serialised on that vnode because
     the server will lock that vnode whilst it operates on it, so a second
     op sent will just have to wait.

 (7) Fileservers are probed with FS.GetCapabilities before being used.
     This is where service upgrade will be done.

 (8) A callback interest on a fileserver is set up before an FS operation
     is performed and passed through to afs_make_call() so that it can be
     set on the vnode if the operation returns a callback.  The callback
     interest is passed through to afs_iget() also so that it can be set
     there too.

In general, record updating is done on an as-needed basis when we try to
access servers, volumes or vnodes rather than offloading it to work items
and special threads.

Notes:

 (1) Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can be added
     back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998).

 (2) VBUSY is retried forever for the moment at intervals of 1s.

 (3) /proc/fs/afs/<cell>/servers no longer exists.

8b2a464ced afs: Add an address list concept
Add an RCU replaceable address list structure to hold a list of server
addresses.  The list also holds the

To this end:

 (1) A cell's VL server address list can be loaded directly via insmod or
     echo to /proc/fs/afs/cells or dynamically from a DNS query for AFSDB
     or SRV records.

 (2) Anyone wanting to use a cell's VL server address must wait until the
     cell record comes online and has tried to obtain some addresses.

 (3) An FS server's address list, for the moment, has a single entry that
     is the key to the server list.  This will change in the future when a
     server is instead keyed on its UUID and the VL.GetAddrsU operation is
     used.

 (4) An 'address cursor' concept is introduced to handle iteration through
     the address list.  This is passed to the afs_make_call() as, in the
     future, stuff (such as abort code) that doesn't outlast the call will
     be returned in it.

In the future, we might want to annotate the list with information about
how each address fares.  We might then want to propagate such annotations
over address list replacement.

Whilst we're at it, we allow IPv6 addresses to be specified in
colon-delimited lists by enclosing them in square brackets.

989782dcdc afs: Overhaul cell database management
Overhaul the way that the in-kernel AFS client keeps track of cells in the
following manner:

 (1) Cells are now held in an rbtree to make walking them quicker and RCU
     managed (though this is probably overkill).

 (2) Cells now have a manager work item that:

     (A) Looks after fetching and refreshing the VL server list.

     (B) Manages cell record lifetime, including initialising and
     	 destruction.

     (B) Manages cell record caching whereby threads are kept around for a
     	 certain time after last use and then destroyed.

     (C) Manages the FS-Cache index cookie for a cell.  It is not permitted
     	 for a cookie to be in use twice, so we have to be careful to not
     	 allow a new cell record to exist at the same time as an old record
     	 of the same name.

 (3) Each AFS network namespace is given a manager work item that manages
     the cells within it, maintaining a single timer to prod cells into
     updating their DNS records.

     This uses the reduce_timer() facility to make the timer expire at the
     soonest timed event that needs happening.

 (4) When a module is being unloaded, cells and cell managers are now
     counted out using dec_after_work() to make sure the module text is
     pinned until after the data structures have been cleaned up.

 (5) Each cell's VL server list is now protected by a seqlock rather than a
     semaphore.

Overhaul permit caching in AFS by making it per-vnode and sharing permit
lists where possible.

When most of the fileserver operations are called, they return a status
structure indicating the (revised) details of the vnode or vnodes involved
in the operation.  This includes the access mark derived from the ACL
(named CallerAccess in the protocol definition file).  This is cacheable
and if the ACL changes, the server will tell us that it is breaking the
callback promise, at which point we can discard the currently cached
permits.

With this patch, the afs_permits structure has, at the end, an array of
{ key, CallerAccess } elements, sorted by key pointer.  This is then cached
in a hash table so that it can be shared between vnodes with the same
access permits.

Permit lists can only be shared if they contain the exact same set of
key->CallerAccess mappings.

Note that that table is global rather than being per-net_ns.  If the keys
in a permit list cross net_ns boundaries, there is no problem sharing the
cached permits, since the permits are just integer masks.

Since permit lists pin keys, the permit cache also makes it easier for a
future patch to find all occurrences of a key and remove them by means of
setting the afs_permits::invalidated flag and then clearing the appropriate
key pointer.  In such an event, memory barriers will need adding.

Lastly, the permit caching is skipped if the server has sent either a
vnode-specific or an entire-server callback since the start of the
operation.

c435ee3455 afs: Overhaul the callback handling
Overhaul the AFS callback handling by the following means:

 (1) Don't give up callback promises on vnodes that we are no longer using,
     rather let them just expire on the server or let the server break
     them.  This is actually more efficient for the server as the callback
     lookup is expensive if there are lots of extant callbacks.

 (2) Only give up the callback promises we have from a server when the
     server record is destroyed.  Then we can just give up *all* the
     callback promises on it in one go.

 (3) Servers can end up being shared between cells if cells are aliased, so
     don't add all the vnodes being backed by a particular server into a
     big FID-indexed tree on that server as there may be duplicates.

     Instead have each volume instance (~= superblock) register an interest
     in a server as it starts to make use of it and use this to allow the
     processor for callbacks from the server to find the superblock and
     thence the inode corresponding to the FID being broken by means of
     ilookup_nowait().

 (4) Rather than iterating over the entire callback list when a mass-break
     comes in from the server, maintain a counter of mass-breaks in
     afs_server (cb_seq) and make afs_validate() check it against the copy
     in afs_vnode.

     It would be nice not to have to take a read_lock whilst doing this,
     but that's tricky without using RCU.

 (5) Save a ref on the fileserver we're using for a call in the afs_call
     struct so that we can access its cb_s_break during call decoding.

 (6) Write-lock around callback and status storage in a vnode and read-lock
     around getattr so that we don't see the status mid-update.

This has the following consequences:

 (1) Data invalidation isn't seen until someone calls afs_validate() on a
     vnode.  Unfortunately, we need to use a key to query the server, but
     getting one from a background thread is tricky without caching loads
     of keys all over the place.

 (2) Mass invalidation isn't seen until someone calls afs_validate().

 (3) Callback breaking is going to hit the inode_hash_lock quite a bit.
     Could this be replaced with rcu_read_lock() since inodes are destroyed
     under RCU conditions.

f044c8847b afs: Lay the groundwork for supporting network namespaces
Lay the groundwork for supporting network namespaces (netns) to the AFS
filesystem by moving various global features to a network-namespace struct
(afs_net) and providing an instance of this as a temporary global variable
that everything uses via accessor functions for the moment.

The following changes have been made:

 (1) Store the netns in the superblock info.  This will be obtained from
     the mounter's nsproxy on a manual mount and inherited from the parent
     superblock on an automount.

 (2) The cell list is made per-netns.  It can be viewed through
     /proc/net/afs/cells and also be modified by writing commands to that
     file.

 (3) The local workstation cell is set per-ns in /proc/net/afs/rootcell.
     This is unset by default.

 (4) The 'rootcell' module parameter, which sets a cell and VL server list
     modifies the init net namespace, thereby allowing an AFS root fs to be
     theoretically used.

 (5) The volume location lists and the file lock manager are made
     per-netns.

 (6) The AF_RXRPC socket and associated I/O bits are made per-ns.

The various workqueues remain global for the moment.

Changes still to be made:

 (1) /proc/fs/afs/ should be moved to /proc/net/afs/ and a symlink emplaced
     from the old name.

 (2) A per-netns subsys needs to be registered for AFS into which it can
     store its per-netns data.

 (3) Rather than the AF_RXRPC socket being opened on module init, it needs
     to be opened on the creation of a superblock in that netns.

 (4) The socket needs to be closed when the last superblock using it is
     destroyed and all outstanding client calls on it have been completed.
     This prevents a reference loop on the namespace.

 (5) It is possible that several namespaces will want to use AFS, in which
     case each one will need its own UDP port.  These can either be set
     through /proc/net/afs/cm_port or the kernel can pick one at random.
     The init_ns gets 7001 by default.

Other issues that need resolving:

 (1) The DNS keyring needs net-namespacing.

 (2) Where do upcalls go (eg. DNS request-key upcall)?

 (3) Need something like open_socket_in_file_ns() syscall so that AFS
     command line tools attempting to operate on an AFS file/volume have
     their RPC calls go to the right place.

944c74f472 afs: Distinguish mountpoints from symlinks by file mode alone
In AFS, mountpoints appear as symlinks with mode 0644 and normal symlinks
have mode 0777, so use this to distinguish them rather than reading the
content and parsing it.  In the case of a mountpoint, the symlink body is a
formatted string indicating the location of the target volume.

Note that with this, kAFS no longer 'pre-fetches' the contents of symlinks,
so afs_readpage() may fail with an access-denial because when the VFS calls
d_automount(), it wraps the call in an credentials override that sets the
initial creds - thereby preventing access to the caller's keyrings and the
authentication keys held therein.

To this end, a patch reverting that change to the VFS is required also.

a528d35e8b statx: Add a system call to make enhanced file info available
Add a system call to make extended file information available, including
file creation and some attribute flags where available through the
underlying filesystem.

The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a
u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the
synchronisation mode.  This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*()
function.

Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions
vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage.

========
OVERVIEW
========

The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall
with an extended stat structure.

A number of requests were gathered for features to be included.  The
following have been included:

 (1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.

 (2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
     future expansion.

 (3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an
     __s64).

 (4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could
     be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of
     FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime).

     This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could
     be exported by NFSD [Steve French].

 (5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a
     netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly
     without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas
     Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC).

 (6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks
     its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust]
     (AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC).

And the following have been left out for future extension:

 (7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh
     Kumar].

     Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves
     i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr().  It could get
     it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead.

     (There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since
     not all filesystems do this the same way).

 (8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such
     as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen)
     [Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert].

 (9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers
     [Bernd Schubert].

     (This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the
     open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to
     whether it's a security hole or not).

(10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger].

     (No particular data were offered, but things like last backup
     timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come
     into this category).

(11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A
     filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if
     that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't
     exist or are fabricated locally...

     (This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea
     for this).

(12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in
     struct xstat [Steve French].

     (Deferred to fsinfo).

(13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the
     granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French].

     (Deferred to fsinfo).

(14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value.  These could be translated to BSD's st_flags.
     Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4
     define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel
     may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too).

     (Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general
     feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't
     be exposed through statx this way).

(15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer,
     Michael Kerrisk].

     (Deferred, probably to fsinfo.  Finding out if there's an ACL or
     seclabal might require extra filesystem operations).

(16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner].

     (A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for
     this - if there proves to be a need).

(17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this.

===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============

The new system call is:

	int ret = statx(int dfd,
			const char *filename,
			unsigned int flags,
			unsigned int mask,
			struct statx *buffer);

The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a
similar way to fstatat().  There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be
emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags.  There is
also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL
filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd.

Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store
can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically
only affects network filesystems):

 (1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this
     respect.

 (2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise
     its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to
     occur to get the timestamps correct.

 (3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a
     network filesystem.  The resulting values should be considered
     approximate.

mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of
interest to the caller.  The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to
get the basic set returned by stat().  It should be noted that asking for
more information may entail extra I/O operations.

buffer points to the destination for the data.  This must be 256 bytes in
size.

======================
MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD
======================

The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute
set:

	struct statx_timestamp {
		__s64	tv_sec;
		__s32	tv_nsec;
		__s32	__reserved;
	};

	struct statx {
		__u32	stx_mask;
		__u32	stx_blksize;
		__u64	stx_attributes;
		__u32	stx_nlink;
		__u32	stx_uid;
		__u32	stx_gid;
		__u16	stx_mode;
		__u16	__spare0[1];
		__u64	stx_ino;
		__u64	stx_size;
		__u64	stx_blocks;
		__u64	__spare1[1];
		struct statx_timestamp	stx_atime;
		struct statx_timestamp	stx_btime;
		struct statx_timestamp	stx_ctime;
		struct statx_timestamp	stx_mtime;
		__u32	stx_rdev_major;
		__u32	stx_rdev_minor;
		__u32	stx_dev_major;
		__u32	stx_dev_minor;
		__u64	__spare2[14];
	};

The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are:

	STATX_TYPE		Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT
	STATX_MODE		Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT
	STATX_NLINK		Want/got stx_nlink
	STATX_UID		Want/got stx_uid
	STATX_GID		Want/got stx_gid
	STATX_ATIME		Want/got stx_atime{,_ns}
	STATX_MTIME		Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns}
	STATX_CTIME		Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns}
	STATX_INO		Want/got stx_ino
	STATX_SIZE		Want/got stx_size
	STATX_BLOCKS		Want/got stx_blocks
	STATX_BASIC_STATS	[The stuff in the normal stat struct]
	STATX_BTIME		Want/got stx_btime{,_ns}
	STATX_ALL		[All currently available stuff]

stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the
data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be
placed.

Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields
plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution.  Note
that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond
fields will also be negative if not zero.

The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a
file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does.  The following
attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value:

	STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED		File is compressed by the fs
	STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE		File is marked immutable
	STATX_ATTR_APPEND		File is append-only
	STATX_ATTR_NODUMP		File is not to be dumped
	STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED		File requires key to decrypt in fs

Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by:

	KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS

[Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed
through this interface?]

New flags include:

	STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT		Object is an automount trigger

These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially,
depending on what they are.

Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes:

 (0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize.

     These are local system information and are always available.

 (1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino,
     stx_size, stx_blocks.

     These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not.  The
     corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they
     actually have valid values.

     If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated.  For
     example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server,
     unless as a byproduct of updating something requested.

     If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as
     UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask,
     even if the caller asked for the value.  In such a case, the returned
     value will be a fabrication.

     Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for
     instance Windows reparse points.

 (2) stx_rdev_*.

     This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a
     blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0.

 (3) stx_btime.

     Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist.

TESTING
=======

The following test program can be used to test the statx system call:

	samples/statx/test-statx.c

Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine.
The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled.

Here's some example output.  Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to
another FSID.  Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting
this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.

	[root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx -A /warthog/data
	statx(/warthog/data) = 0
	results=7ff
	  Size: 4096            Blocks: 8          IO Block: 1048576  directory
	Device: 00:26           Inode: 1703937     Links: 125
	Access: (3777/drwxrwxrwx)  Uid:     0   Gid:  4041
	Access: 2016-11-24 09:02:12.219699527+0000
	Modify: 2016-11-17 10:44:36.225653653+0000
	Change: 2016-11-17 10:44:36.225653653+0000
	Attributes: 0000000000001000 (-------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---m---- --------)

Secondly, the result of automounting on that directory.

	[root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx /warthog/data
	statx(/warthog/data) = 0
	results=7ff
	  Size: 4096            Blocks: 8          IO Block: 1048576  directory
	Device: 00:27           Inode: 2           Links: 125
	Access: (3777/drwxrwxrwx)  Uid:     0   Gid:  4041
	Access: 2016-11-24 09:02:12.219699527+0000
	Modify: 2016-11-17 10:44:36.225653653+0000
	Change: 2016-11-17 10:44:36.225653653+0000

b4db2b35fc afs: Use core kernel UUID generation
AFS uses a time based UUID to identify the host itself.  This requires
getting a timestamp which is currently done through the getnstimeofday()
interface that we want to eventually get rid of.

Instead of replacing it with a ktime-based interface, simply remove the
entire function and use generate_random_uuid() instead, which has a v4
("completely random") UUID instead of the time-based one.

ff54877310 afs: Move UUID struct to linux/uuid.h
Move the afs_uuid struct to linux/uuid.h, rename it to uuid_v1 and change
the u16/u32 fields to __be16/__be32 instead so that the structure can be
cast to a 16-octet network-order buffer.
