The creation of a submount is open-coded in fuse_dentry_automount().
This brings a lot of complexity and we recently had to fix bugs
because we weren't setting SB_BORN or because we were unlocking
sb->s_umount before sb was fully configured. Most of these could
have been avoided by using the mount API instead of open-coding.
Basically, this means coming up with a proper ->get_tree()
implementation for submounts and call vfs_get_tree(), or better
fc_mount().
The creation of the superblock for submounts is quite different from
the root mount. Especially, it doesn't require to allocate a FUSE
filesystem context, nor to parse parameters.
Introduce a dedicated context ops for submounts to make this clear.
This is just a placeholder for now, fuse_get_tree_submount() will
be populated in a subsequent patch.
Only visible change is that we stop allocating/freeing a useless FUSE
filesystem context with submounts.

Even if POSIX doesn't mandate it, linux users legitimately expect sync() to
flush all data and metadata to physical storage when it is located on the
same system. This isn't happening with virtiofs though: sync() inside the
guest returns right away even though data still needs to be flushed from
the host page cache.
This is easily demonstrated by doing the following in the guest:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/foo bs=1M count=5K ; strace -T -e sync sync
5120+0 records in
5120+0 records out
5368709120 bytes (5.4 GB, 5.0 GiB) copied, 5.22224 s, 1.0 GB/s
sync() = 0 <0.024068>
and start the following in the host when the 'dd' command completes
in the guest:
$ strace -T -e fsync /usr/bin/sync virtiofs/foo
fsync(3) = 0 <10.371640>
There are no good reasons not to honor the expected behavior of sync()
actually: it gives an unrealistic impression that virtiofs is super fast
and that data has safely landed on HW, which isn't the case obviously.
Implement a ->sync_fs() superblock operation that sends a new FUSE_SYNCFS
request type for this purpose. Provision a 64-bit placeholder for possible
future extensions. Since the file server cannot handle the wait == 0 case,
we skip it to avoid a gratuitous roundtrip. Note that this is
per-superblock: a FUSE_SYNCFS is send for the root mount and for each
submount.
Like with FUSE_FSYNC and FUSE_FSYNCDIR, lack of support for FUSE_SYNCFS in
the file server is treated as permanent success. This ensures
compatibility with older file servers: the client will get the current
behavior of sync() not being propagated to the file server.
Note that such an operation allows the file server to DoS sync(). Since a
typical FUSE file server is an untrusted piece of software running in
userspace, this is disabled by default. Only enable it with virtiofs for
now since virtiofsd is supposedly trusted by the guest kernel.

If an incoming FUSE request can't fit on the virtqueue, the request is
placed onto a workqueue so a worker can try to resubmit it later where
there will (hopefully) be space for it next time.
This is fine for requests that aren't larger than a virtqueue's maximum
capacity. However, if a request's size exceeds the maximum capacity of the
virtqueue (even if the virtqueue is empty), it will be doomed to a life of
being placed on the workqueue, removed, discovered it won't fit, and placed
on the workqueue yet again.
Furthermore, from section 2.6.5.3.1 (Driver Requirements: Indirect
Descriptors) of the virtio spec:
"A driver MUST NOT create a descriptor chain longer than the Queue
Size of the device."
To fix this, limit the number of pages FUSE will use for an overall
request. This way, each request can realistically fit on the virtqueue
when it is decomposed into a scattergather list and avoid violating section
2.6.5.3.1 of the virtio spec.

Jan Kara's analysis of the syzbot report (edited):
The reproducer opens a directory on FUSE filesystem, it then attaches
dnotify mark to the open directory. After that a fuse_do_getattr() call
finds that attributes returned by the server are inconsistent, and calls
make_bad_inode() which, among other things does:
inode->i_mode = S_IFREG;
This then confuses dnotify which doesn't tear down its structures
properly and eventually crashes.
Avoid calling make_bad_inode() on a live inode: switch to a private flag on
the fuse inode. Also add the test to ops which the bad_inode_ops would
have caught.
This bug goes back to the initial merge of fuse in 2.6.14...

Virtiofs can be slow with small writes if xattr are enabled and we are
doing cached writes (No direct I/O). Ganesh Mahalingam noticed this.
Some debugging showed that file_remove_privs() is called in cached write
path on every write. And everytime it calls security_inode_need_killpriv()
which results in call to __vfs_getxattr(XATTR_NAME_CAPS). And this goes to
file server to fetch xattr. This extra round trip for every write slows
down writes tremendously.
Normally to avoid paying this penalty on every write, vfs has the notion of
caching this information in inode (S_NOSEC). So vfs sets S_NOSEC, if
filesystem opted for it using super block flag SB_NOSEC. And S_NOSEC is
cleared when setuid/setgid bit is set or when security xattr is set on
inode so that next time a write happens, we check inode again for clearing
setuid/setgid bits as well clear any security.capability xattr.
This seems to work well for local file systems but for remote file systems
it is possible that VFS does not have full picture and a different client
sets setuid/setgid bit or security.capability xattr on file and that means
VFS information about S_NOSEC on another client will be stale. So for
remote filesystems SB_NOSEC was disabled by default.
Commit 9e1f1de02c ("more conservative S_NOSEC handling") mentioned that
these filesystems can still make use of SB_NOSEC as long as they clear
S_NOSEC when they are refreshing inode attriutes from server.
So this patch tries to enable SB_NOSEC on fuse (regular fuse as well as
virtiofs). And clear SB_NOSEC when we are refreshing inode attributes.
This is enabled only if server supports FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2. This says
that server will clear setuid/setgid/security.capability on
chown/truncate/write as apporpriate.
This should provide tighter coherency because now suid/sgid/
security.capability will be cleared even if fuse client cache has not seen
these attrs.
Basic idea is that fuse client will trigger suid/sgid/security.capability
clearing based on its attr cache. But even if cache has gone stale, it is
fine because FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 will make sure WRITE clear
suid/sgid/security.capability.
We make this change only if server supports FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2. This
should make sure that existing filesystems which might be relying on
seucurity.capability always being queried from server are not impacted.
This tighter coherency relies on WRITE showing up on server (and not being
cached in guest). So writeback_cache mode will not provide that tight
coherency and it is not recommended to use two together. Having said that
it might work reasonably well for lot of use cases.
This change improves random write performance very significantly. Running
virtiofsd with cache=auto and following fio command:
fio --ioengine=libaio --direct=1 --name=test --filename=/mnt/virtiofs/random_read_write.fio --bs=4k --iodepth=64 --size=4G --readwrite=randwrite
Bandwidth increases from around 50MB/s to around 250MB/s as a result of
applying this patch. So improvement is very significant.

We already have FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV flag that says that file server will
remove suid/sgid/caps on truncate/chown/write. But that's little different
from what Linux VFS implements.
To be consistent with Linux VFS behavior what we want is.
- caps are always cleared on chown/write/truncate
- suid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID.
- sgid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID as well as file has group execute
permission.
As previous flag did not provide above semantics. Implement a V2 of the
protocol with above said constraints.
Server does not know if caller has CAP_FSETID or not. So for the case
of write()/truncate(), client will send information in special flag to
indicate whether to kill priviliges or not. These changes are in subsequent
patches.
FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 relies on WRITE being sent to server to clear
suid/sgid/security.capability. But with ->writeback_cache, WRITES are
cached in guest. So it is not recommended to use FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2
and writeback_cache together. Though it probably might be good enough
for lot of use cases.

Currently when acquiring an sb for virtiofs fuse_mount_get() is being
called from virtio_fs_set_super() if a new sb is being filled and
fuse_mount_put() is called unconditionally after sget_fc() returns.
The exact same result can be obtained by checking whether
fs_contex->s_fs_info was set to NULL (ref trasferred to sb->s_fs_info) and
only calling fuse_mount_put() if the ref wasn't transferred (error or
matching sb found).
This allows getting rid of virtio_fs_set_super() and fuse_mount_get().

FUSE servers can indicate crossmount points by setting FUSE_ATTR_SUBMOUNT
in fuse_attr.flags. The inode will then be marked as S_AUTOMOUNT, and the
.d_automount implementation creates a new submount at that location, so
that the submount gets a distinct st_dev value.
Note that all submounts get a distinct superblock and a distinct st_dev
value, so for virtio-fs, even if the same filesystem is mounted more than
once on the host, none of its mount points will have the same st_dev. We
need distinct superblocks because the superblock points to the root node,
but the different host mounts may show different trees (e.g. due to
submounts in some of them, but not in others).
Right now, this behavior is only enabled when fuse_conn.auto_submounts is
set, which is the case only for virtio-fs.

We want to allow submounts for the same fuse_conn, but with different
superblocks so that each of the submounts has its own device ID. To do
so, we need to split all mount-specific information off of fuse_conn
into a new fuse_mount structure, so that multiple mounts can share a
single fuse_conn.
We need to take care only to perform connection-level actions once (i.e.
when the fuse_conn and thus the first fuse_mount are established, or
when the last fuse_mount and thus the fuse_conn are destroyed). For
example, fuse_sb_destroy() must invoke fuse_send_destroy() until the
last superblock is released.
To do so, we keep track of which fuse_mount is the root mount and
perform all fuse_conn-level actions only when this fuse_mount is
involved.

Currently in fuse we don't seem have any lock which can serialize fault
path with truncate/punch_hole path. With dax support I need one for
following reasons.
1. Dax requirement
DAX fault code relies on inode size being stable for the duration of
fault and want to serialize with truncate/punch_hole and they explicitly
mention it.
static vm_fault_t dax_iomap_pmd_fault(struct vm_fault *vmf, pfn_t *pfnp,
const struct iomap_ops *ops)
/*
* Check whether offset isn't beyond end of file now. Caller is
* supposed to hold locks serializing us with truncate / punch hole so
* this is a reliable test.
*/
max_pgoff = DIV_ROUND_UP(i_size_read(inode), PAGE_SIZE);
2. Make sure there are no users of pages being truncated/punch_hole
get_user_pages() might take references to page and then do some DMA
to said pages. Filesystem might truncate those pages without knowing
that a DMA is in progress or some I/O is in progress. So use
dax_layout_busy_page() to make sure there are no such references
and I/O is not in progress on said pages before moving ahead with
truncation.
3. Limitation of kvm page fault error reporting
If we are truncating file on host first and then removing mappings in
guest lateter (truncate page cache etc), then this could lead to a
problem with KVM. Say a mapping is in place in guest and truncation
happens on host. Now if guest accesses that mapping, then host will
take a fault and kvm will either exit to qemu or spin infinitely.
IOW, before we do truncation on host, we need to make sure that guest
inode does not have any mapping in that region or whole file.
4. virtiofs memory range reclaim
Soon I will introduce the notion of being able to reclaim dax memory
ranges from a fuse dax inode. There also I need to make sure that
no I/O or fault is going on in the reclaimed range and nobody is using
it so that range can be reclaimed without issues.
Currently if we take inode lock, that serializes read/write. But it does
not do anything for faults. So I add another semaphore fuse_inode->i_mmap_sem
for this purpose. It can be used to serialize with faults.
As of now, I am adding taking this semaphore only in dax fault path and
not regular fault path because existing code does not have one. May
be existing code can benefit from it as well to take care of some
races, but that we can fix later if need be. For now, I am just focussing
only on DAX path which is new path.
Also added logic to take fuse_inode->i_mmap_sem in
truncate/punch_hole/open(O_TRUNC) path to make sure file truncation and
fuse dax fault are mutually exlusive and avoid all the above problems.

Previous patch changed handling of remount/reconfigure to ignore all
options, including those that are unknown to the fuse kernel fs. This was
done for backward compatibility, but this likely only affects the old
mount(2) API.
The new fsconfig(2) based reconfiguration could possibly be improved. This
would make the new API less of a drop in replacement for the old, OTOH this
is a good chance to get rid of some weirdnesses in the old API.
Several other behaviors might make sense:
1) unknown options are rejected, known options are ignored
2) unknown options are rejected, known options are rejected if the value
is changed, allowed otherwise
3) all options are rejected
Prior to the backward compatibility fix to ignore all options all known
options were accepted (1), even if they change the value of a mount
parameter; fuse_reconfigure() does not look at the config values set by
fuse_parse_param().
To fix that we'd need to verify that the value provided is the same as set
in the initial configuration (2). The major drawback is that this is much
more complex than just rejecting all attempts at changing options (3);
i.e. all options signify initial configuration values and don't make sense
on reconfigure.
This patch opts for (3) with the rationale that no mount options are
reconfigurable in fuse.

The command

succeeds on kernel versions prior to v5.4 and fails on kernel version at or
after. This is because fuse_parse_param() rejects any unrecognised options
in case of FS_CONTEXT_FOR_RECONFIGURE, just as for FS_CONTEXT_FOR_MOUNT.
This causes a regression in case the fuse filesystem is in fstab, since
remount sends all options found there to the kernel; even ones that are
meant for the initial mount and are consumed by the userspace fuse server.
Fix this by ignoring mount options, just as fuse_remount_fs() did prior to

fuse_fill_super_common() allocates and installs one fuse_device. Hence
virtiofs allocates and install all fuse devices by itself except one.
This makes logic little twisted. There does not seem to be any real need
that why virtiofs can't allocate and install all fuse devices itself.
So opt out of fuse device allocation and installation while calling
fuse_fill_super_common().
Regular fuse still wants fuse_fill_super_common() to install fuse_device.
It needs to prevent against races where two mounters are trying to mount
fuse using same fd. In that case one will succeed while other will get
-EINVAL.
virtiofs does not have this issue because sget_fc() resolves the race
w.r.t multiple mounters and only one instance of virtio_fs_fill_super()
should be in progress for same filesystem.

Merge tag 'virtio-fs-5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse
Pull fuse virtio-fs support from Miklos Szeredi:
"Virtio-fs allows exporting directory trees on the host and mounting
them in guest(s).
This isn't actually a new filesystem, but a glue layer between the
fuse filesystem and a virtio based back-end.
It's similar in functionality to the existing virtio-9p solution, but
significantly faster in benchmarks and has better POSIX compliance.
Further permformance improvements can be achieved by sharing the page
cache between host and guest, allowing for faster I/O and reduced
memory use.
Kata Containers have been including the out-of-tree virtio-fs (with
the shared page cache patches as well) since version 1.7 as an
experimental feature. They have been active in development and plan to
switch from virtio-9p to virtio-fs as their default solution. There
has been interest from other sources as well.
The userspace infrastructure is slated to be merged into qemu once the
kernel part hits mainline.
This was developed by Vivek Goyal, Dave Gilbert and Stefan Hajnoczi"

Add a basic file system module for virtio-fs. This does not yet contain
shared data support between host and guest or metadata coherency speedups.
However it is already significantly faster than virtio-9p.
Design Overview
===============
With the goal of designing something with better performance and local file
system semantics, a bunch of ideas were proposed.
- Use fuse protocol (instead of 9p) for communication between guest and
host. Guest kernel will be fuse client and a fuse server will run on
host to serve the requests.
- For data access inside guest, mmap portion of file in QEMU address space
and guest accesses this memory using dax. That way guest page cache is
bypassed and there is only one copy of data (on host). This will also
enable mmap(MAP_SHARED) between guests.
- For metadata coherency, there is a shared memory region which contains
version number associated with metadata and any guest changing metadata
updates version number and other guests refresh metadata on next access.
This is yet to be implemented.
How virtio-fs differs from existing approaches
==============================================
The unique idea behind virtio-fs is to take advantage of the co-location of
the virtual machine and hypervisor to avoid communication (vmexits).
DAX allows file contents to be accessed without communication with the
hypervisor. The shared memory region for metadata avoids communication in
the common case where metadata is unchanged.
By replacing expensive communication with cheaper shared memory accesses,
we expect to achieve better performance than approaches based on network
file system protocols. In addition, this also makes it easier to achieve
local file system semantics (coherency).
These techniques are not applicable to network file system protocols since
the communications channel is bypassed by taking advantage of shared memory
on a local machine. This is why we decided to build virtio-fs rather than
focus on 9P or NFS.
Caching Modes
=============
Like virtio-9p, different caching modes are supported which determine the
coherency level as well. The “cache=FOO” and “writeback” options control
the level of coherence between the guest and host filesystems.
- cache=none
metadata, data and pathname lookup are not cached in guest. They are
always fetched from host and any changes are immediately pushed to host.
- cache=always
metadata, data and pathname lookup are cached in guest and never expire.
- cache=auto
metadata and pathname lookup cache expires after a configured amount of
time (default is 1 second). Data is cached while the file is open
(close to open consistency).
- writeback/no_writeback
These options control the writeback strategy. If writeback is disabled,
then normal writes will immediately be synchronized with the host fs.
If writeback is enabled, then writes may be cached in the guest until
the file is closed or an fsync(2) performed. This option has no effect
on mmap-ed writes or writes going through the DAX mechanism.

As of now fuse_dev_alloc() both allocates a fuse device and installs it in
fuse_conn list. fuse_dev_alloc() can fail if fuse_device allocation fails.
virtio-fs needs to initialize multiple fuse devices (one per virtio queue).
It initializes one fuse device as part of call to fuse_fill_super_common()
and rest of the devices are allocated and installed after that.
But, we can't afford to fail after calling fuse_fill_super_common() as we
don't have a way to undo all the actions done by fuse_fill_super_common().
So to avoid failures after the call to fuse_fill_super_common(),
pre-allocate all fuse devices early and install them into fuse connection
later.
This patch provides two separate helpers for fuse device allocation and
fuse device installation in fuse_conn.

The /dev/fuse device uses fiq->waitq and fasync to signal that requests are
available. These mechanisms do not apply to virtio-fs. This patch
introduces callbacks so alternative behavior can be used.
Note that queue_interrupt() changes along these lines:
spin_lock(&fiq->waitq.lock);
wake_up_locked(&fiq->waitq);
+ kill_fasync(&fiq->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
spin_unlock(&fiq->waitq.lock);
- kill_fasync(&fiq->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
Since queue_request() and queue_forget() also call kill_fasync() inside
the spinlock this should be safe.

fuse_fill_super() includes code to process the fd= option and link the
struct fuse_dev to the fd's struct file. In virtio-fs there is no file
descriptor because /dev/fuse is not used.
This patch extracts fuse_fill_super_common() so that both classic fuse and
virtio-fs can share the code to initialize a mount.

The size of struct fuse_req was reduced from 392B to 144B on a non-debug
config, thus the sanitize_global_limit() helper was setting a larger
default limit. This doesn't really reflect reduction in the memory used by
requests, since the fields removed from fuse_req were added to fuse_args
derived structs; e.g. sizeof(struct fuse_writepages_args) is 248B, thus
resulting in slightly more memory being used for writepage requests
overalll (due to using 256B slabs).
Make the calculatation ignore the size of fuse_req and use the old 392B
value.

We can use the "force" flag to make sure the DESTROY request is always sent
to userspace. So no need to keep it allocated during the lifetime of the

Instead of complex games with a reserved request, just use __GFP_NOFAIL.
Both calers (flush, readdir) guarantee that connection was already
initialized, so no need to wait for fc->initialized.
Also remove unneeded clearing of FR_BACKGROUND flag.
