Somewhere along the way the autofs expire operation has changed to hold
a spin lock over expired dentry selection. The autofs indirect mount
expired dentry selection is complicated and quite lengthy so it isn't
appropriate to hold a spin lock over the operation.
Commit 47be61845c ("fs/dcache.c: avoid soft-lockup in dput()") added a
might_sleep() to dput() causing a WARN_ONCE() about this usage to be
issued.
But the spin lock doesn't need to be held over this check, the autofs
dentry info. flags are enough to block walks into dentrys during the
expire.
I've left the direct mount expire as it is (for now) because it is much
simpler and quicker than the indirect mount expire and adding spin lock
release and re-aquires would do nothing more than add overhead.
Fixes: 47be61845c ("fs/dcache.c: avoid soft-lockup in dput()")

Convert the following where appropriate:
(1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).
(2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).
(3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
a ->d_automount op.
In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).
Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.
However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.
There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

->fs_lock protects AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING. We need to be sure that once
the flag is set, no new references beneath the dentry are taken. So
rcu-walk currently needs to take fs_lock before checking the flag. This
hurts performance.
Change the expiry to a two-stage process. First set AUTOFS_INF_NO_RCU
which forces any path walk into ref-walk mode, then drop the lock and
call synchronize_rcu(). Once that returns we can be sure no rcu-walk is
active beneath the dentry and we can check reference counts again.
Now during an RCU-walk we can test AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING without taking
the lock as along as we test AUTOFS_INF_NO_RCU too. If either are set,
we must abort the RCU-walk If neither are set, we know that refcounts
will be tested again after we finish the RCU-walk so we are safe to
continue.
->fs_lock is still taken in d_manage() to check for a non-trap
directory. That will be resolved in the next patch.

This series teaches autofs about RCU-walk so that we don't drop straight
into REF-walk when we hit an autofs directory, and so that we avoid
spinlocks as much as possible when performing an RCU-walk.
This is needed so that the benefits of the recent NFS support for
RCU-walk are fully available when NFS filesystems are automounted.
Patches have been carefully reviewed and tested both with test suites
and in production - thanks a lot to Ian Kent for his support there.
This patch (of 6):
Any attempt to look up a pathname that passes though an autofs4 mount is
currently forced out of RCU-walk into REF-walk.
This can significantly hurt performance of many-thread work loads on
many-core systems, especially if the automounted filesystem supports
RCU-walk but doesn't get to benefit from it.
So if autofs4_d_manage is called with rcu_walk set, only fail with -ECHILD
if it is necessary to wait longer than a spinlock.

Biederman's umount-on-rmdir series changes d_invalidate() to sumarily remove
mounts under the passed in dentry regardless of whether they are busy
or not. So calling this in fs/autofs4/expire.c:autofs4_tree_busy() is
definitely the wrong thing to do becuase it will silently umount entries
instead of just cleaning stale dentrys.
But this call shouldn't be needed and testing shows that automounting
continues to function without it.
As Al Viro correctly surmises the original intent of the call was to
perform what shrink_dcache_parent() does.
If at some time in the future I see stale dentries accumulating
following failed mounts I'll revisit the issue and possibly add a
shrink_dcache_parent() call if needed.

The autofs4 module doesn't consider symlinks for expire as it did in the
older autofs v3 module (so it's actually a long standing regression).
The user space daemon has focused on the use of bind mounts instead of
symlinks for a long time now and that's why this has not been noticed.
But with the future addition of amd map parsing to automount(8), not to
mention amd itself (of am-utils), symlink expiry will be needed.
The direct and offset mount types can't be symlinks and the tree mounts of
version 4 were always real mounts so only indirect mounts need expire
symlinks.
Since the current users of the autofs4 module haven't reported this as a
problem to date this patch probably isn't a candidate for backport to
stable.

When checking if an autofs mount point is busy it isn't sufficient to
only check if it's a mount point.
For example, if the mount of an offset mountpoint in a tree is denied
for this host by its export and the dentry becomes a process working
directory the check incorrectly returns the mount as not in use at
expire.
This can happen since the default when mounting within a tree is
nostrict, which means ingnore mount fails on mounts within the tree and
continue. The nostrict option is meant to allow mounting in this case.

In some cases when an autofs indirect mount is contained in a file
system that is marked as shared (such as when systemd does the
equivalent of "mount --make-rshared /" early in the boot), mounts
stop expiring.
When this happens the first expiry check on a mountpoint dentry in
autofs_expire_indirect() sees a mountpoint dentry with a higher
than minimal reference count. Consequently the dentry is condidered
busy and the actual expiry check is never done.
This particular check was originally meant as an optimisation to
detect a path walk in progress but with the addition of rcu-walk
it can be ineffective anyway.
Removing the test allows automounts to expire again since the
actual expire check doesn't rely on the dentry reference count.

Following a report of a crash during an automount expire I found that
the locking in fs/autofs4/expire.c:get_next_positive_subdir() was wrong.
Not only is the locking wrong but the function is more complex than it
needs to be.
The function is meant to calculate (and dget) the next entry in the list
of directories contained in the root of an autofs mount point (an autofs
indirect mount to be precise). The main problem was that the d_lock of
the owner of the list was not being taken when walking the list, which
lead to list corruption under load. The only other lock that needs to
be taken is against the next dentry candidate so it can be checked for

This patch required a previous patch to add the ->d_automount()
dentry operation.
Add a function to use the newly defined ->d_manage() dentry operation
for blocking during mount and expire.
Whether the VFS calls the dentry operations d_automount() and d_manage()
is controled by the DMANAGED_AUTOMOUNT and DMANAGED_TRANSIT flags. autofs
uses the d_automount() operation to callback to user space to request
mount operations and the d_manage() operation to block walks into mounts
that are under construction or destruction.
In order to prevent these functions from being called unnecessarily the
DMANAGED_* flags are cleared for cases which would cause this. In the
common case the DMANAGED_AUTOMOUNT and DMANAGED_TRANSIT flags are both
set for dentrys waiting to be mounted. The DMANAGED_TRANSIT flag is
cleared upon successful mount request completion and set during expire
runs, both during the dentry expire check, and if selected for expire,
is left set until a subsequent successful mount request completes.
The exception to this is the so-called rootless multi-mount which has
no actual mount at its base. In this case the DMANAGED_AUTOMOUNT flag
is cleared upon successful mount request completion as well and set
again after a successful expire.

Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956

[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:

which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

Rather than keep a d_mounted count in the dentry, set a dentry flag instead.
The flag can be cleared by checking the hash table to see if there are any
mounts left, which is not time critical because it is performed at detach time.
The mounted state of a dentry is only used to speculatively take a look in the
mount hash table if it is set -- before following the mount, vfsmount lock is
taken and mount re-checked without races.
This saves 4 bytes on 32-bit, nothing on 64-bit but it does provide a hole I
might use later (and some configs have larger than 32-bit spinlocks which might
make use of the hole).
Autofs4 conversion and changelog by Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>:
In autofs4, when expring direct (or offset) mounts we need to ensure that we
block user path walks into the autofs mount, which is covered by another mount.
To do this we clear the mounted status so that follows stop before walking into
the mount and are essentially blocked until the expire is completed. The
automount daemon still finds the correct dentry for the umount due to the
follow mount logic in fs/autofs4/root.c:autofs4_follow_link(), which is set as
an inode operation for direct and offset mounts only and is called following
the lookup that stopped at the covered mount.
At the end of the expire the covering mount probably has gone away so the
mounted status need not be restored. But we need to check this and only restore
the mounted status if the expire failed.
XXX: autofs may not work right if we have other mounts go over the top of it?

info spin lock. This reduces the number of spin locks we use by one and
makes the code for the following patch (to redirect ->d_revalidate() to
->lookup()) a little simpler.

to use "struct path" one case was missed in the autofs4 module
which causes mounts to no longer expire.

- the type assigned at mount when no type is given is changed
from 0 to AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT. This was done because 0 and
AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT were being treated implicitly as the same
type.
- previously, an offset mount had it's type set to
AUTOFS_TYPE_DIRECT|AUTOFS_TYPE_OFFSET but the mount control
re-implementation needs to be able distinguish all three types.
So this was changed to make the type setting explicit.
- a type AUTOFS_TYPE_ANY was added for use by the re-implementation
when checking if a given path is a mountpoint. It's not really a
type as we use this to ask if a given path is a mountpoint in the
autofs_dev_ioctl_ismountpoint() function.
- functions to set and test the autofs mount types have been added to
improve readability and make the type usage explicit.
- the mount type is used from user space for the mount control
re-implementtion so, for consistency, all the definitions have
been moved to the user space include file include/linux/auto_fs4.h.

When checking a directory tree in autofs_tree_busy() we can incorrectly
decide that the tree isn't busy. This happens for the case of an active
offset mount as autofs4_follow_mount() follows past the active offset
mount, which has an open file handle used for expires, causing the file
handle not to count toward the busyness check.

Add a miscellaneous device to the autofs4 module for routing ioctls. This
provides the ability to obtain an ioctl file handle for an autofs mount
point that is possibly covered by another mount.
The actual problem with autofs is that it can't reconnect to existing
mounts. Immediately one things of just adding the ability to remount
autofs file systems would solve it, but alas, that can't work. This is
because autofs direct mounts and the implementation of "on demand mount
and expire" of nested mount trees have the file system mounted on top of
the mount trigger dentry.
To resolve this a miscellaneous device node for routing ioctl commands to
these mount points has been implemented in the autofs4 kernel module and a
library added to autofs. This provides the ability to open a file
descriptor for these over mounted autofs mount points.
Please refer to Documentation/filesystems/autofs4-mount-control.txt for a
discussion of the problem, implementation alternatives considered and a
description of the interface.

For direct and offset type mounts that are covered by another mount we
cannot check the AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING flag during a path walk which leads
to lookups walking into an expiring mount while it is being expired.
For example, for the direct multi-mount map entry with a couple of
offsets:
/race/mm1 / <server1>:/<path1>
/om1 <server2>:/<path2>
/om2 <server1>:/<path3>
an autofs trigger mount is mounted on /race/mm1 and when accessed it is
over mounted and trigger mounts made for /race/mm1/om1 and /race/mm1/om2.
So it isn't possible for path walks to see the expiring flag at all and
they happily walk into the file system while it is expiring.
When expiring these mounts follow_down() must stop at the autofs mount and
all processes must block in the ->follow_link() method (except the daemon)
until the expire is complete. This is done by decrementing the d_mounted
field of the autofs trigger mount root dentry until the expire is
completed. In ->follow_link() all processes wait on the expire and the
mount following is completed for the daemon until the expire is complete.

The selection of a dentry for expiration and the setting of the
AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING flag isn't done atomically which can lead to lookups
walking into an expiring mount.
What happens is that an expire is initiated by the daemon and a dentry is
selected for expire but, since there is no lock held between the selection
and setting of the expiring flag, a process may find the flag clear and
continue walking into the mount tree at the same time the daemon attempts
the expire it.

Here are some more places where path_{get,put}() can be used instead of
dput()/mntput() pair. Besides that it fixes a bug in autofs4_mount_busy()
where mntput() was called before dput().
