* sysfs: give different locking key to regular and bin filesTejun Heo2013-12-081-5/+3Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 027a485d12e0 ("sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files depending on mmap") assigned different lockdep key to sysfs_open_file->mutex depending on whether the file implements mmap or not in an attempt to avoid spurious lockdep warning caused by merging of regular and bin file paths. While this restored some of the original behavior of using different locks (at least lockdep is concerned) for the different clases of files. The restoration wasn't full because now the lockdep key assignment depends on whether the file has mmap or not instead of whether it's a regular file or not. This means that bin files which don't implement mmap will get assigned the same lockdep class as regular files. This is problematic because file_operations for bin files still implements the mmap file operation and checking whether the sysfs file actually implements mmap happens in the file operation after grabbing @sysfs_open_file->mutex. We still end up adding locking dependency from mmap locking to sysfs_open_file->mutex to the regular file mutex which triggers spurious circular locking warning. Fix it by restoring the original behavior fully by differentiating lockdep key by whether the file is regular or bin, instead of the existence of mmap.

The warning is false positive as of->mutex is per open-file and the two paths belong to two different files. This warning didn't trigger before regular and bin file supports were merged because only bin file supported mmap and the other side of locking happened only on regular files which used equivalent but separate locking. It'd be best if we give separate locking classes per file but we can't easily do that. Let's differentiate on ->mmap() for now. Later we'll add explicit file operations struct and can add per-ops lockdep key there.

* sysfs: use generic_file_llseek() for sysfs_file_operationsTejun Heo2013-11-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 13c589d5b0ac6 ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files") converted regular sysfs files to use seq_file. The commit substituted generic_file_llseek() with seq_lseek() for llseek implementation. Before the change, all regular sysfs files were allowed to seek to any position in [0, PAGE_SIZE] as the file size is always PAGE_SIZE and generic_file_llseek() allows any seeking inside the range under file size; however, seq_lseek()'s behavior is different. It traverses the output by repeatedly invoking ->show() until it reaches the target offset or traversal indicates EOF. As seq_files are fully dynamic and may not end at all, it doesn't support seeking from the end (SEEK_END). Apparently, there are userland tools which uses SEEK_END to discover the buffer size to use and the switch to seq_lseek() disturbs them as SEEK_END fails with -EINVAL. The only benefits of using seq_lseek() instead of generic_file_llseek() are * Early failure. If traversing to certain file position should fail, seq_lseek() will report such failures on lseek(2) instead of the following read/write operations. * EOF detection. While SEEK_END is not supported, SEEK_SET/CUR + large offset can be used to detect eof - eof at the time of the seek anyway as the file size may change dynamically. Both aren't necessary for sysfs or prospect kernfs users. Revert to genefic_file_llseek() and preserve the original behavior.

* sysfs: merge sysfs_elem_bin_attr into sysfs_elem_attrTejun Heo2013-10-291-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 3124eb1679 ("sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling") folded bin file handling into regular file handling. Among other things, bin file now shares the same open path including sysfs_open_dirent association using sysfs_dirent->s_attr.open. This is buggy because ->s_bin_attr lives in the same union and doesn't have the field. This bug doesn't trigger because sysfs_elem_bin_attr doesn't have an active field at the conflicting position. It does have a field "buffers" but it isn't used anymore. This patch collapses sysfs_elem_bin_attr into sysfs_elem_attr so that the bin_attr is accessed through ->s_attr.bin_attr which lives with ->s_attr.attr in an anonymous union. The code paths already assume bin_attr contains attr as the first element, so this doesn't add any more assumptions while making it explicit that the two types are handled together.

* sysfs: fix sysfs_write_file for bin fileMing Lei2013-10-251-3/+2Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before patch(sysfs: prepare path write for unified regular / bin file handling), when size of bin file is zero, writting still can continue, but this patch changes the behaviour. The worse thing is that firmware loader is broken by this patch, and user space application can't write to firmware bin file any more because both firmware loader and drivers can't know at advance how large the firmware file is and have to set its initialized size as zero. This patch fixes the problem and keeps behaviour of writting to bin as before.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While looking at the code, I noticed that bin_attribute read() and write() ops copy the inode size into an int for futher comparisons. Some bin_attributes can be fairly large. For example, pci creates some for BARs set to the BAR size and giant BARs are around the corner, so this is going to break something somewhere eventually.

As file ops access should be protected by an active reference, the new function includes a lockdep assertion on the sysfs_dirent; unfortunately, I forgot to take attr->ignore_lockdep flag into account and the lockdep assertion trips spuriously for files which opt out from active reference lockdep checking. # cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.2/usb1/authorized ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 540 at /work/os/work/fs/sysfs/file.c:79 sysfs_file_ops+0x4e/0x60() Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 540 Comm: cat Not tainted 3.11.0-work+ #3 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 0000000000000009 ffff880016205c08 ffffffff81ca0131 0000000000000000 ffff880016205c40 ffffffff81096d0d ffff8800166cb898 ffff8800166f6f60 ffffffff8125a220 ffff880011ab1ec0 ffff88000aff0c78 ffff880016205c50 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81ca0131>] dump_stack+0x4e/0x82 [<ffffffff81096d0d>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7d/0xa0 [<ffffffff81096dea>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [<ffffffff8125994e>] sysfs_file_ops+0x4e/0x60 [<ffffffff8125a274>] sysfs_open_file+0x54/0x300 [<ffffffff811df612>] do_dentry_open.isra.17+0x182/0x280 [<ffffffff811df820>] finish_open+0x30/0x40 [<ffffffff811f0623>] do_last+0x503/0xd90 [<ffffffff811f0f6b>] path_openat+0xbb/0x6d0 [<ffffffff811f23ba>] do_filp_open+0x3a/0x90 [<ffffffff811e09a9>] do_sys_open+0x129/0x220 [<ffffffff811e0abe>] SyS_open+0x1e/0x20 [<ffffffff81caf3c2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b ---[ end trace aa48096b111dafdb ]--- Rename fs/sysfs/dir.c::ignore_lockdep() to sysfs_ignore_lockdep() and move it to fs/sysfs/sysfs.h and make sysfs_file_ops() skip lockdep assertion if sysfs_ignore_lockdep() is true.

* sysfs: merge regular and bin file handlingTejun Heo2013-10-061-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the previous changes, sysfs regular file code is ready to handle bin files too. This patch makes bin files share the regular file path. * sysfs_create/remove_bin_file() are moved to fs/sysfs/file.c. * sysfs_init_inode() is updated to use the new sysfs_bin_operations instead of bin_fops for bin files. * fs/sysfs/bin.c and the related pieces are removed. This patch shouldn't introduce any behavior difference to bin file accesses. Overall, this unification reduces the amount of duplicate logic, makes behaviors more consistent and paves the road for building simpler and more versatile interface which will allow other subsystems to make use of sysfs for their pseudo filesystems. v2: Stale fs/sysfs/bin.c reference dropped from Documentation/DocBook/filesystems.tmpl.

* sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular filesTejun Heo2013-10-061-91/+73Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs read path implements its own buffering scheme between userland and kernel callbacks, which essentially is a degenerate duplicate of seq_file. This patch replaces the custom read buffering implementation in sysfs with seq_file. While the amount of code reduction is small, this reduces low level hairiness and enables future development of a new versatile API based on seq_file so that sysfs features can be shared with other subsystems. As write path was already converted to not use sysfs_open_file->page, this patch makes ->page and ->count unused and removes them. Userland behavior remains the same except for some extreme corner cases - e.g. sysfs will now regenerate the content each time a file is read after a non-contiguous seek whereas the original code would keep using the same content. While this is a userland visible behavior change, it is extremely unlikely to be noticeable and brings sysfs behavior closer to that of procfs.

* sysfs: use transient write bufferTejun Heo2013-10-061-62/+52Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There isn't much to be gained by keeping around kernel buffer while a file is open especially as the read path planned to be converted to use seq_file and won't use the buffer.

This simplifies the write path, enables removing sysfs_open_file->page once read path is updated and will help merging bin file write path which already requires the use of a transient buffer due to a locking order issue. As the function comments of flush_write_buffer() and sysfs_write_buffer() are being updated anyway, reformat them so that they're more conventional. v2: Use min_t() instead of min() in sysfs_write_file() to avoid build warning on arm.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ->needs_read_fill is used to implement the following behaviors. 1. Ensure buffer filling on the first read. 2. Force buffer filling after a write. 3. Force buffer filling after a successful poll. However, #2 and #3 don't really work as sysfs doesn't reset file position. While the read buffer would be refilled, the next read would continue from the position after the last read or write, requiring an explicit seek to the start for it to be useful, which makes ->needs_read_fill superflous as read buffer is always refilled if f_pos == 0. Update sysfs_read_file() to test buffer->page for #1 instead and remove ->needs_read_fill. While this changes behavior in extreme corner cases - e.g. re-reading a sysfs file after seeking to non-zero position after a write or poll, it's highly unlikely to lead to actual breakage.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs_addrm_start/finish() enclose sysfs_dirent additions and deletions and sysfs_addrm_cxt is used to record information necessary to finish the operations.

This assumption has been fine until now but we want to make some operations behave recursively and, while having @parent_sd recorded in sysfs_addrm_cxt doesn't necessarily prevents that, it becomes confusing. This patch removes sysfs_addrm_cxt->parent_sd and makes sysfs_add_one() take an explicit @parent_sd parameter. Note that sysfs_remove_one() doesn't need the extra argument as its parent is always known from the target @sd.

For example, we end up forcing vast majority of sysfs_get_dirent() users to do sysfs_get_dirent(parent, NULL, name), which is silly and error-prone especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without causing compilation warning. This renames sysfs_get_dirent() to sysfs_get_dirent_ns() and swap the positions of @name and @ns, and sysfs_get_dirent() is now a wrapper around sysfs_get_dirent_ns(). This makes confusions a lot less likely. There are other interfaces which take @ns before @name. They'll be updated by following patches. This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes. v2: EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() wasn't updated leading to undefined symbol error on module builds. Reported by build test robot. Fixed.

* sysfs: make attr namespace interface less convolutedTejun Heo2013-09-261-71/+24Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs ns (namespace) implementation became more convoluted than necessary while trying to hide ns information from visible interface. The relatively recent attr ns support is a good example. * attr ns tag is determined by sysfs_ops->namespace() callback while dir tag is determined by kobj_type->namespace(). The placement is arbitrary. * Instead of performing operations with explicit ns tag, the namespace callback is routed through sysfs_attr_ns(), sysfs_ops->namespace(), class_attr_namespace(), class_attr->namespace(). It's not simpler in any sense. The only thing this convolution does is traversing the whole stack backwards. The namespace callbacks are unncessary because the operations involved are inherently synchronous. The information can be provided in in straight-forward top-down direction and reversing that direction is unnecessary and against basic design principles. This backward interface is unnecessarily convoluted and hinders properly separating out sysfs from driver model / kobject for proper layering. This patch updates attr ns support such that * sysfs_ops->namespace() and class_attr->namespace() are dropped. * sysfs_{create|remove}_file_ns(), which take explicit @ns param, are added and sysfs_{create|remove}_file() are now simple wrappers around the ns aware functions. * ns handling is dropped from sysfs_chmod_file(). Nobody uses it at this point. sysfs_chmod_file_ns() can be added later if necessary. * Explicit @ns is propagated through class_{create|remove}_file_ns() and netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns(). * driver/net/bonding which is currently the only user of attr namespace is updated to use netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns() with @bh->net as the ns tag instead of using the namespace callback. This patch should be an equivalent conversion without any functional difference. It makes the code easier to follow, reduces lines of code a bit and helps proper separation and layering.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | directories. Recently an OOPS was observed from the usb serial io_ti driver when it tried to remove sysfs directories. Upon investigation it turns out this driver was always buggy and that a recent sysfs change had stopped guarding itself against removing attributes from sysfs directories that had already been removed. :( Historically we have been silent about attempting to files from nonexistent sysfs directories and have politely returned error codes. That has resulted in people writing broken code that ignores the error codes. Issue a kernel WARNING and a stack backtrace to make it clear in no uncertain terms that abusing sysfs is not ok, and the callers need to fix their code. This change transforms the io_ti OOPS into a more comprehensible error message and stack backtrace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs is a core piece of ifrastructure that many people use and few people have all of the rules in their head on how to use it correctly. Add warnings for people using tagged directories improperly to that any misuses can be caught and diagnosed quickly. A single inexpensive test in sysfs_find_dirent is almost sufficient to catch all possible misuses.

* sysfs: Implement support for tagged files in sysfs.Eric W. Biederman2011-10-201-2/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Looking up files in sysfs is hard to understand and analyize because we currently allow placing untagged files in tagged directories. In the implementation of that we have two subtly different meanings of NULL. NULL meaning there is no tag on a directory entry and NULL meaning we don't care which namespace the lookup is performed for. This multiple uses of NULL have resulted in subtle bugs (since fixed) in the code. Currently it is only the bonding driver that needs to have an untagged file in a tagged directory. To untagle this mess I am adding support for tagged files to sysfs. Modifying the bonding driver to implement bonding_masters as a tagged file. Registering bonding_masters once for each network namespace. Then I am removing support for untagged entries in tagged sysfs directories. Resulting in code that is much easier to reason about.

When implementing a network namespace I need to be able to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this is a problem for /sys/class/net/*, /sys/devices/virtual/net/*, and potentially a few other directories of the form /sys/ ... /net/*. What this patch does is to add an additional tag field to the sysfs dirent structure. For directories that should show different contents depending on the context such as /sys/class/net/, and /sys/devices/virtual/net/ this tag field is used to specify the context in which those directories should be visible. Effectively this is the same as creating multiple distinct directories with the same name but internally to sysfs the result is nicer. I am calling the concept of a single directory that looks like multiple directories all at the same path in the filesystem tagged directories. For the networking namespace the set of directories whose contents I need to filter with tags can depend on the presence or absence of hotplug hardware or which modules are currently loaded. Which means I need a simple race free way to setup those directories as tagged. To achieve a reace free design all tagged directories are created and managed by sysfs itself. Users of this interface: - define a type in the sysfs_tag_type enumeration. - call sysfs_register_ns_types with the type and it's operations - sysfs_exit_ns when an individual tag is no longer valid - Implement mount_ns() which returns the ns of the calling process so we can attach it to a sysfs superblock. - Implement ktype.namespace() which returns the ns of a syfs kobject. Everything else is left up to sysfs and the driver layer. For the network namespace mount_ns and namespace() are essentially one line functions, and look to remain that. Tags are currently represented a const void * pointers as that is both generic, prevides enough information for equality comparisons, and is trivial to create for current users, as it is just the existing namespace pointer. The work needed in sysfs is more extensive. At each directory or symlink creating I need to check if the directory it is being created in is a tagged directory and if so generate the appropriate tag to place on the sysfs_dirent. Likewise at each symlink or directory removal I need to check if the sysfs directory it is being removed from is a tagged directory and if so figure out which tag goes along with the name I am deleting. Currently only directories which hold kobjects, and symlinks are supported. There is not enough information in the current file attribute interfaces to give us anything to discriminate on which makes it useless, and there are no potential users which makes it an uninteresting problem to solve.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is pointless. The purpose of the active references are to allows us to block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom methods from accessing data structures after the files have been removed. Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance we will remove a directory with active children. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs_notify_dirent is a simple atomic operation that can be used to alert user-space that new data can be read from a sysfs attribute. Unfortunately it cannot currently be called from non-process context because of its use of spin_lock which is sometimes taken with interrupts enabled. So change all lockers of sysfs_open_dirent_lock to disable interrupts, thus making sysfs_notify_dirent safe to be called from non-process context (as drivers/md does in md_safemode_timeout). sysfs_get_open_dirent is (documented as being) only called from process context, so it uses spin_lock_irq. Other places use spin_lock_irqsave. The usage for sysfs_notify_dirent in md_safemode_timeout was introduced in 2.6.28, so this patch is suitable for that and more recent kernels.
