d796e77f1d ovl: fix failure to fsync lower dir
As a writable mount, it is not expected for overlayfs to return
EINVAL/EROFS for fsync, even if dir/file is not changed.

This commit fixes the case of fsync of directory, which is easier to
address, because overlayfs already implements fsync file operation for
directories.

The problem reported by Raphael is that new PostgreSQL 10.0 with a
database in overlayfs where lower layer in squashfs fails to start.
The failure is due to fsync error, when PostgreSQL does fsync on all
existing db directories on startup and a specific directory exists
lower layer with no changes.

b04a23421b Merge branch 'overlayfs-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs
Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Report constant st_ino values across copy-up even if underlying
   layers are on different filesystems, but using different st_dev
   values for each layer.

   Ideally we'd report the same st_dev across the overlay, and it's
   possible to do for filesystems that use only 32bits for st_ino by
   unifying the inum space. It would be nice if it wasn't a choice of 32
   or 64, rather filesystems could report their current maximum (that
   could change on resize, so it wouldn't be set in stone).

 - miscellaneus fixes and a cleanup of ovl_fill_super(), that was long
   overdue.

 - created a path_put_init() helper that clears out the pointers after
   putting the ref.

   I think this could be useful elsewhere, so added it to <linux/path.h>

b93436320c ovl: re-structure overlay lower layers in-memory
Define new structures to represent overlay instance lower layers and
overlay merge dir lower layers to make room for storing more per layer
information in-memory.

Instead of keeping the fs instance lower layers in an array of struct
vfsmount, keep them in an array of new struct ovl_layer, that has a
pointer to struct vfsmount.

Instead of keeping the dentry lower layers in an array of struct path,
keep them in an array of new struct ovl_path, that has a pointer to
struct dentry and to struct ovl_layer.

Add a small helper to find the fs layer id that correspopnds to a lower
struct ovl_path and use it in ovl_lookup().

If a non-merge dir in an overlay mount has an overlay.origin xattr, it

then the lower dir was removed under it.

fa0096e3ba ovl: do not cleanup unsupported index entries
With index=on, ovl_indexdir_cleanup() tries to cleanup invalid index
entries (e.g. bad index name). This behavior could result in cleaning of
entries created by newer kernels and is therefore undesirable.
Instead, abort mount if such entries are encountered. We still cleanup
'stale' entries and 'orphan' entries, both those cases can be a result
of offline changes to lower and upper dirs.

When encoutering an index entry of type directory or whiteout, kernel
was supposed to fallback to read-only mount, but the fill_super()
operation returns EROFS in this case instead of returning success with
read-only mount flag, so mount fails when encoutering directory or
whiteout index entries. Bless this behavior by returning -EINVAL on
directory and whiteout index entries as we do for all unsupported index
entries.

4edb83bb10 ovl: constant d_ino for non-merge dirs
Impure directories are ones which contain objects with origins (i.e. those
that have been copied up).  These are relevant to readdir operation only
because of the d_ino field, no other transformation is necessary.  Also a
directory can become impure between two getdents(2) calls.

This patch creates a cache for impure directories.  Unlike the cache for
merged directories, this one only contains entries with origin and is not
refcounted but has a its lifetime tied to that of the dentry.

Similarly to the merged cache, the impure cache is invalidated based on a
version number.  This version number is incremented when an entry with
origin is added or removed from the directory.

If the cache is empty, then the impure xattr is removed from the directory.

This patch also fixes up handling of d_ino for the ".." entry if the parent
directory is merged.

b5efccbe0a ovl: constant d_ino across copy up
When all layers are on the same fs, and iterating a directory which may
contain copy up entries, call vfs_getattr() on the overlay entries to make
sure that d_ino will be consistent with st_ino from stat(2).

There is an overhead of lookup per upper entry in readdir.

The overhead is minimal if the iterated entries are already in dcache.  It
is also quite useful for the common case of 'ls -l' that readdir() pre
populates the dcache with the listed entries, making the following stat()
calls faster.

61b674710c ovl: do not cleanup directory and whiteout index entries
Directory index entries are going to be used for looking up
redirected upper dirs by lower dir fh when decoding an overlay
file handle of a merge dir.

Whiteout index entries are going to be used as an indication that
an exported overlay file handle should be treated as stale (i.e.
after unlink of the overlay inode).

We don't know the verification rules for directory and whiteout
index entries, because they have not been implemented yet, so fail
to mount overlay rw if those entries are found to avoid corrupting
an index that was created by a newer kernel.

415543d5c6 ovl: cleanup bad and stale index entries on mount
Bad index entries are entries whose name does not match the
origin file handle stored in trusted.overlay.origin xattr.
Bad index entries could be a result of a system power off in
the middle of copy up.

Stale index entries are entries whose origin file handle is
stale. Stale index entries could be a result of copying layers
or removing lower entries while the overlay is not mounted.
The case of copying layers should be detected earlier by the
verification of upper root dir origin and index dir origin.

Both bad and stale index entries are detected and removed
on mount.

eea2fb4851 ovl: proper cleanup of workdir
When mounting overlayfs it needs a clean "work" directory under the
supplied workdir.

Previously the mount code removed this directory if it already existed and
created a new one.  If the removal failed (e.g. directory was not empty)
then it fell back to a read-only mount not using the workdir.

While this has never been reported, it is possible to get a non-empty
"work" dir from a previous mount of overlayfs in case of crash in the
middle of an operation using the work directory.

In this case the left over state should be discarded and the overlay
filesystem will be consistent, guaranteed by the atomicity of operations on
moving to/from the workdir to the upper layer.

This patch implements cleaning out any files left in workdir.  It is
implemented using real recursion for simplicity, but the depth is limited
to 2, because the worst case is that of a directory containing whiteouts
under "work".

3fe6e52f06 ovl: override creds with the ones from the superblock mounter
In user namespace the whiteout creation fails with -EPERM because the
current process isn't capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) when setting xattr.

A simple reproducer:

$ mkdir upper lower work merged lower/dir
$ sudo mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged
$ unshare -m -p -f -U -r bash

Now as root in the user namespace:

\# touch merged/dir/{1,2,3} # this will force a copy up of lower/dir
\# rm -fR merged/*

This ends up failing with -EPERM after the files in dir has been
correctly deleted:

unlinkat(4, "2", 0)                     = 0
unlinkat(4, "1", 0)                     = 0
unlinkat(4, "3", 0)                     = 0
close(4)                                = 0
unlinkat(AT_FDCWD, "merged/dir", AT_REMOVEDIR) = -1 EPERM (Operation not
permitted)

Interestingly, if you don't place files in merged/dir you can remove it,
meaning if upper/dir does not exist, creating the char device file works
properly in that same location.

This patch uses ovl_sb_creator_cred() to get the cred struct from the
superblock mounter and override the old cred with these new ones so that
the whiteout creation is possible because overlay is wrong in assuming that
the creds it will get with prepare_creds will be in the initial user
namespace.  The old cap_raise game is removed in favor of just overriding
the old cred struct.

This patch also drops from ovl_copy_up_one() the following two lines:

override_cred->fsuid = stat->uid;
override_cred->fsgid = stat->gid;

This is because the correct uid and gid are taken directly with the stat
struct and correctly set with ovl_set_attr().

45aebeaf4f ovl: Ensure upper filesystem supports d_type
In some instances xfs has been created with ftype=0 and there if a file
on lower fs is removed, overlay leaves a whiteout in upper fs but that
whiteout does not get filtered out and is visible to overlayfs users.

And reason it does not get filtered out because upper filesystem does
not report file type of whiteout as DT_CHR during iterate_dir().

So it seems to be a requirement that upper filesystem support d_type for
overlayfs to work properly. Do this check during mount and fail if d_type
is not supported.

This patch fixes kernel crash at removing directory which contains

Cache of directory content passed as "list" contains entries from all

(moved into work at this stage) will return negative entry. Plus this
cache is filled long before and we can race with external removal.

Example:
 mkdir -p lower0/dir lower1/dir upper work overlay
 touch lower0/dir/a lower0/dir/b

49c21e1cac ovl: check whiteout while reading directory
Don't make a separate pass for checking whiteouts, since we can do it while
reading the upper directory.

This will make it easier to handle multiple layers.

3f822c6264 ovl: don't poison cursor
ovl_cache_put() can be called from ovl_dir_reset() if the cache needs to be
rebuilt.  We did list_del() on the cursor, which results in an Oops on the
poisoned pointer in ovl_seek_cursor().

d1b72cc6d8 overlayfs: fix lockdep misannotation
In an overlay directory that shadows an empty lower directory, say
/mnt/a/empty102, do:

 	touch /mnt/a/empty102/x
 	unlink /mnt/a/empty102/x
 	rmdir /mnt/a/empty102

It's actually harmless, but needs another level of nesting between
I_MUTEX_CHILD and I_MUTEX_NORMAL.

e9be9d5e76 overlay filesystem
Overlayfs allows one, usually read-write, directory tree to be
overlaid onto another, read-only directory tree.  All modifications
go to the upper, writable layer.

This type of mechanism is most often used for live CDs but there's a
wide variety of other uses.

The implementation differs from other "union filesystem"
implementations in that after a file is opened all operations go
directly to the underlying, lower or upper, filesystems.  This
simplifies the implementation and allows native performance in these
cases.

The dentry tree is duplicated from the underlying filesystems, this
enables fast cached lookups without adding special support into the
VFS.  This uses slightly more memory than union mounts, but dentries
are relatively small.

Currently inodes are duplicated as well, but it is a possible
optimization to share inodes for non-directories.

Opening non directories results in the open forwarded to the
underlying filesystem.  This makes the behavior very similar to union
mounts (with the same limitations vs. fchmod/fchown on O_RDONLY file
descriptors).

Usage:

  mount -t overlayfs overlayfs -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper/upper,workdir=/upper/work /overlay

The following cotributions have been folded into this patch:

Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>:
 - minimal remount support
 - use correct seek function for directories
 - initialise is_real before use
 - rename ovl_fill_cache to ovl_dir_read

Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org>:
 - fix a deadlock in ovl_dir_read_merged
 - fix a deadlock in ovl_remove_whiteouts

Erez Zadok <ezk@fsl.cs.sunysb.edu>
 - fix cleanup after WARN_ON

Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@googlemail.com>
 - fix up permission to confirm to new API

Robin Dong <hao.bigrat@gmail.com>
 - fix possible leak in ovl_new_inode
 - create new inode in ovl_link

Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com>
 - switch to __inode_permission()
 - copy up i_uid/i_gid from the underlying inode

AV:
 - ovl_copy_up_locked() - dput(ERR_PTR(...)) on two failure exits
 - ovl_clear_empty() - one failure exit forgetting to do unlock_rename(),
   lack of check for udir being the parent of upper, dropping and regaining
   the lock on udir (which would require _another_ check for parent being
   right).
 - bogus d_drop() in copyup and rename [fix from your mail]
 - copyup/remove and copyup/rename races [fix from your mail]
 - ovl_dir_fsync() leaving ERR_PTR() in ->realfile
 - ovl_entry_free() is pointless - it's just a kfree_rcu()
 - fold ovl_do_lookup() into ovl_lookup()
 - manually assigning ->d_op is wrong.  Just use ->s_d_op.
 [patches picked from Miklos]:
 * copyup/remove and copyup/rename races
 * bogus d_drop() in copyup and rename
