* switch ->put_link() from dentry to inodeAl Viro2015-05-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | only one instance looks at that argument at all; that sole exception wants inode rather than dentry. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* don't pass nameidata to ->follow_link()Al Viro2015-05-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | its only use is getting passed to nd_jump_link(), which can obtain it from current->nameidata Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* new ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventionsAl Viro2015-05-111-8/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a) instead of storing the symlink body (via nd_set_link()) and returning an opaque pointer later passed to ->put_link(), ->follow_link() _stores_ that opaque pointer (into void * passed by address by caller) and returns the symlink body. Returning ERR_PTR() on error, NULL on jump (procfs magic symlinks) and pointer to symlink body for normal symlinks. Stored pointer is ignored in all cases except the last one. Storing NULL for opaque pointer (or not storing it at all) means no call of ->put_link(). b) the body used to be passed to ->put_link() implicitly (via nameidata). Now only the opaque pointer is. In the cases when we used the symlink body to free stuff, ->follow_link() now should store it as opaque pointer in addition to returning it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* ovl: rearrange ovl_follow_link to it doesn't need to call ->put_linkNeilBrown2015-05-111-13/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ovl_follow_link current calls ->put_link on an error path. However ->put_link is about to change in a way that it will be impossible to call it from ovl_follow_link. So rearrange the code to avoid the need for that error path. Specifically: move the kmalloc() call before the ->follow_link() call to the subordinate filesystem.

* ovl: Use macros to present ovl_xattrhujianyang2014-12-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds two macros: OVL_XATTR_PRE_NAME and OVL_XATTR_PRE_LEN to present ovl_xattr name prefix and its length. Also, a new macro OVL_XATTR_OPAQUE is introduced to replace old *ovl_opaque_xattr*. Fix the length of "trusted.overlay." to *16*.

* ovl: fix race in private xattr checksMiklos Szeredi2014-11-201-9/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Xattr operations can race with copy up. This does not matter as long as we consistently fiter out "trunsted.overlay.opaque" attribute on upper directories. Previously we checked parent against OVL_PATH_MERGE. This is too general, and prone to race with copy-up. I.e. we found the parent to be on the lower layer but ovl_dentry_real() would return the copied-up dentry, possibly with the "opaque" attribute. So instead use ovl_path_real() and decide to filter the attributes based on the actual type of the dentry we'll use. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
* overlay filesystemMiklos Szeredi2014-10-241-0/+425
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.
