* fsnotify: remove pointless NULL initializersJan Kara2014-01-222-4/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We usually rely on the fact that struct members not specified in the initializer are set to NULL. So do that with fsnotify function pointers as well.

* fsnotify: do not share events between notification groupsJan Kara2014-01-2210-611/+279Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently fsnotify framework creates one event structure for each notification event and links this event into all interested notification groups. This is done so that we save memory when several notification groups are interested in the event. However the need for event structure shared between inotify & fanotify bloats the event structure so the result is often higher memory consumption. Another problem is that fsnotify framework keeps path references with outstanding events so that fanotify can return open file descriptors with its events. This has the undesirable effect that filesystem cannot be unmounted while there are outstanding events - a regression for inotify compared to a situation before it was converted to fsnotify framework. For fanotify this problem is hard to avoid and users of fanotify should kind of expect this behavior when they ask for file descriptors from notified files. This patch changes fsnotify and its users to create separate event structure for each group. This allows for much simpler code (~400 lines removed by this patch) and also smaller event structures. For example on 64-bit system original struct fsnotify_event consumes 120 bytes, plus additional space for file name, additional 24 bytes for second and each subsequent group linking the event, and additional 32 bytes for each inotify group for private data. After the conversion inotify event consumes 48 bytes plus space for file name which is considerably less memory unless file names are long and there are several groups interested in the events (both of which are uncommon). Fanotify event fits in 56 bytes after the conversion (fanotify doesn't care about file names so its events don't have to have it allocated). A win unless there are four or more fanotify groups interested in the event. The conversion also solves the problem with unmount when only inotify is used as we don't have to grab path references for inotify events.

* inotify: fix race when adding a new watchLino Sanfilippo2013-07-091-9/+4Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In inotify_new_watch() the number of watches for a group is compared against the max number of allowed watches and increased afterwards. The check and incrementation is not done atomically, so it is possible for multiple concurrent threads to pass the check and increment the number of marks above the allowed max. This patch uses an inotify groups mark_lock to ensure that both check and incrementation are done atomic. Furthermore we dont have to worry about the race that allows a concurrent thread to add a watch just after inotify_update_existing_watch() returned with -ENOENT anymore, since this is also synchronized by the groups mark mutex now.

* fanotify: fix races when adding/removing marksLino Sanfilippo2013-07-091-12/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For both adding an event to an existing mark and destroying a mark we first have to find it via fsnotify_find_[inode|vfsmount]_mark(). But getting the mark and adding an event (or destroying it) is not done atomically. This opens a race where a thread is about to destroy a mark while another thread still finds the same mark and adds an event to its mask although it will be destroyed. Another race exists concerning the excess of a groups number of marks limit: When a mark is added the number of group marks is checked against the max number of marks per group and increased afterwards. Since check and increment is also not done atomically, this may result in 2 or more processes passing the check at the same time and increasing the number of group marks above the allowed limit. With this patch both races are avoided by doing the concerning operations with the groups mark mutex locked.

* | inotify: invalid mask should return a error number but not set itZhao Hongjiang2013-05-011-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we run the crackerjack testsuite, the inotify_add_watch test is stalled. This is caused by the invalid mask 0 - the task is waiting for the event but it never comes. inotify_add_watch() should return -EINVAL as it did before commit 676a0675cf92 ("inotify: remove broken mask checks causing unmount to be EINVAL"). That commit removes the invalid mask check, but that check is needed. Check the mask's ALL_INOTIFY_BITS before the inotify_arg_to_mask() call. If none are set, just return -EINVAL. Because IN_UNMOUNT is in ALL_INOTIFY_BITS, this change will not trigger the problem that above commit fixed.

* hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin2013-02-283-24/+17Star

I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

* | inotify: remove broken mask checks causing unmount to be EINVALJim Somerville2013-02-221-4/+0Star
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Running the command: inotifywait -e unmount /mnt/disk immediately aborts with a -EINVAL return code. This is however a valid parameter. This abort occurs only if unmount is the sole event parameter. If other event parameters are supplied, then the unmount event wait will work. The problem was introduced by commit 44b350fc23e ("inotify: Fix mask checks"). In that commit, it states: The mask checks in inotify_update_existing_watch() and inotify_new_watch() are useless because inotify_arg_to_mask() sets FS_IN_IGNORED and FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD bits anyway. But instead of removing the useless checks, it did this: mask = inotify_arg_to_mask(arg); - if (unlikely(!mask)) + if (unlikely(!(mask & IN_ALL_EVENTS))) return -EINVAL; The problem is that IN_ALL_EVENTS doesn't include IN_UNMOUNT, and other parts of the code keep IN_UNMOUNT separate from IN_ALL_EVENTS. So the check should be: if (unlikely(!(mask & (IN_ALL_EVENTS | IN_UNMOUNT)))) But inotify_arg_to_mask(arg) always sets the IN_UNMOUNT bit in the mask anyway, so the check is always going to pass and thus should simply be removed. Also note that inotify_arg_to_mask completely controls what mask bits get set from arg, there's no way for invalid bits to get enabled there. Lets fix it by simply removing the useless broken checks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Boyd Yang reported a problem for the case that multiple threads of the same thread group are waiting for a reponse for a permission event. In this case it is possible that some of the threads are never woken up, even if the response for the event has been received (see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131822913806350&w=2). The reason is that we are currently merging permission events if they belong to the same thread group. But we are not prepared to wake up more than one waiter for each event. We do wait_event(group->fanotify_data.access_waitq, event->response || atomic_read(&group->fanotify_data.bypass_perm)); and after that event->response = 0; which is the reason that even if we woke up all waiters for the same event some of them may see event->response being already set 0 again, then go back to sleep and block forever. With this patch we avoid that more than one thread is waiting for a response by not merging permission events for the same thread group any more.

However, if I understand correctly, this occurs since we dont hold any locks when we call iput() in mark_destroy(), right? With the patches you tested, iput() is also not called within any lock, since the groups mark_mutex is released temporarily before iput() is called. This is, since the original codes behaviour is similar. However since we now have a mutex as the biggest lock, we can do what you suggested (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg46107.html) and call iput() with the mutex held to avoid the race. The patch below implements this. It uses nested locking to avoid deadlock in case we do the final iput() on an inode which still holds marks and thus would take the mutex again when calling fsnotify_inode_delete() in destroy_inode().

We also use get a group reference for duplicated marks and for private event data. Now we dont free a group any more when the number of marks becomes 0 but when the groups ref count does. Since this will only happen when all marks are removed from a groups mark list, we dont have to set the groups number of marks to 1 at group creation. Beside clearing all marks in fsnotify_destroy_group() we do also flush the groups event queue. This is since events may hold references to groups (due to private event data) and we have to put those references first before we get a chance to put the final ref, which will result in a call to fsnotify_final_destroy_group().

Repeated attempts over time to actually get him to apply it have never had a reply from anyone who has raised it So apply it anyway Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Reported-by: Anders Blomdell <anders.blomdell@control.lth.se> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

|/ | | | | | | | | | * do copy_to_user() before prepare_for_access_response(); that kills the need in remove_access_response(). * don't do fd_install() until we are past the last possible failure exit. Don't use sys_close() on cleanup side - just put_unused_fd() and fput(). Less racy that way... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
