* fs: add new get acl methodChristian Brauner2022-10-201-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1]. Since some filesystem rely on the dentry being available to them when setting posix acls (e.g., 9p and cifs) they cannot rely on the old get acl inode operation to retrieve posix acl and need to implement their own custom handlers because of that. In a previous patch we renamed the old get acl inode operation to ->get_inode_acl(). We decided to rename it and implement a new one since ->get_inode_acl() is called generic_permission() and inode_permission() both of which can be called during an filesystem's ->permission() handler. So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would have amounted to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We avoided that change. This adds a new ->get_acl() inode operations which takes a dentry argument which filesystems such as 9p, cifs, and overlayfs can implement to get posix acls.

* fs: rename current get acl methodChristian Brauner2022-10-201-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1]. The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl() inode operation is called from: acl_permission_check() -> check_acl() -> get_acl() which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g., overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We should avoid this unnecessary change. So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from ->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for permission checking during lookup can simply not implement ->get_inode_acl(). This is intended to be a non-functional change.

* vfs: open inside ->tmpfile()Miklos Szeredi2022-09-241-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is in preparation for adding tmpfile support to fuse, which requires that the tmpfile creation and opening are done as a single operation. Replace the 'struct dentry *' argument of i_op->tmpfile with 'struct file *'. Call finish_open_simple() as the last thing in ->tmpfile() instances (may be omitted in the error case). Change d_tmpfile() argument to 'struct file *' as well to make callers more readable.

Previously NFSD would purge open and lock state for an unresponsive client after one lease period (typically 90 seconds). Now, after one lease period, another client can open and lock those files and the unresponsive client's lease is purged; otherwise if the unresponsive client's open and lock state is uncontended, the server retains that open and lock state for up to 24 hours, allowing the client's workload to resume after a lengthy network partition. A longstanding issue with NFSv4 file creation is also addressed. Previously a file creation can fail internally, returning an error to the client, but leave the newly created file in place as an artifact. The file creation code path has been reorganized so that internal failures and race conditions are less likely to result in an unwanted file creation. A fault injector has been added to help exercise paths that are run during kernel metadata cache invalidation. These caches contain information maintained by user space about exported filesystems. Many of our test workloads do not trigger cache invalidation.

| * fs/lock: add 2 callbacks to lock_manager_operations to resolve conflictDai Ngo2022-05-191-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add 2 new callbacks, lm_lock_expirable and lm_expire_lock, to lock_manager_operations to allow the lock manager to take appropriate action to resolve the lock conflict if possible. A new field, lm_mod_owner, is also added to lock_manager_operations. The lm_mod_owner is used by the fs/lock code to make sure the lock manager module such as nfsd, is not freed while lock conflict is being resolved. lm_lock_expirable checks and returns true to indicate that the lock conflict can be resolved else return false. This callback must be called with the flc_lock held so it can not block. lm_expire_lock is called to resolve the lock conflict if the returned value from lm_lock_expirable is true. This callback is called without the flc_lock held since it's allowed to block. Upon returning from this callback, the lock conflict should be resolved and the caller is expected to restart the conflict check from the beginnning of the list. Lock manager, such as NFSv4 courteous server, uses this callback to resolve conflict by destroying lock owner, or the NFSv4 courtesy client (client that has expired but allowed to maintains its states) that owns the lock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, serializing operations such as page fault, read, or readahead against hole punching is rather difficult. The basic race scheme is like: fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) read / fault / .. truncate_inode_pages_range() <create pages in page cache here> <update fs block mapping and free blocks> Now the problem is in this way read / page fault / readahead can instantiate pages in page cache with potentially stale data (if blocks get quickly reused). Avoiding this race is not simple - page locks do not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given range. inode->i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under mmap_sem which ranks below inode->i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer. So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock - that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads / readahead. Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

* | vfs: add fileattr opsMiklos Szeredi2021-04-121-3/+8
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a substantial amount of boilerplate in filesystems handling FS_IOC_[GS]ETFLAGS/ FS_IOC_FS[GS]ETXATTR ioctls. Also due to userspace buffers being involved in the ioctl API this is difficult to stack, as shown by overlayfs issues related to these ioctls. Introduce a new internal API named "fileattr" (fsxattr can be confused with xattr, xflags is inappropriate, since this is more than just flags). There's significant overlap between flags and xflags and this API handles the conversions automatically, so filesystems may choose which one to use. In ->fileattr_get() a hint is provided to the filesystem whether flags or xattr are being requested by userspace, but in this series this hint is ignored by all filesystems, since generating all the attributes is cheap. If a filesystem doesn't implemement the fileattr API, just fall back to f_op->ioctl(). When all filesystems are converted, the fallback can be removed. 32bit compat ioctls are now handled by the generic code as well. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
* acl: handle idmapped mountsChristian Brauner2021-01-241-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The posix acl permission checking helpers determine whether a caller is privileged over an inode according to the acls associated with the inode. Add helpers that make it possible to handle acls on idmapped mounts. The vfs and the filesystems targeted by this first iteration make use of posix_acl_fix_xattr_from_user() and posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user() to translate basic posix access and default permissions such as the ACL_USER and ACL_GROUP type according to the initial user namespace (or the superblock's user namespace) to and from the caller's current user namespace. Adapt these two helpers to handle idmapped mounts whereby we either map from or into the mount's user namespace depending on in which direction we're translating. Similarly, cap_convert_nscap() is used by the vfs to translate user namespace and non-user namespace aware filesystem capabilities from the superblock's user namespace to the caller's user namespace. Enable it to handle idmapped mounts by accounting for the mount's user namespace. In addition the fileystems targeted in the first iteration of this patch series make use of the posix_acl_chmod() and, posix_acl_update_mode() helpers. Both helpers perform permission checks on the target inode. Let them handle idmapped mounts. These two helpers are called when posix acls are set by the respective filesystems to handle this case we extend the ->set() method to take an additional user namespace argument to pass the mount's user namespace down.

| * nfsd: clients don't need to break their own delegationsJ. Bruce Fields2020-05-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently revoke read delegations on any write open or any operation that modifies file data or metadata (including rename, link, and unlink). But if the delegation in question is the only read delegation and is held by the client performing the operation, that's not really necessary. It's not always possible to prevent this in the NFSv4.0 case, because there's not always a way to determine which client an NFSv4.0 delegation came from. (In theory we could try to guess this from the transport layer, e.g., by assuming all traffic on a given TCP connection comes from the same client. But that's not really correct.) In the NFSv4.1 case the session layer always tells us the client. This patch should remove such self-conflicts in all cases where we can reliably determine the client from the compound. To do that we need to track "who" is performing a given (possibly lease-breaking) file operation. We're doing that by storing the information in the svc_rqst and using kthread_data() to map the current task back to a svc_rqst. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
