Linus Torvalds f1ef09fde1 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "There is a lot here. A lot of these changes result in subtle user
  visible differences in kernel behavior. I don't expect anything will
  care but I will revert/fix things immediately if any regressions show
  up.

  From Seth Forshee there is a continuation of the work to make the vfs
  ready for unpriviled mounts. We had thought the previous changes
  prevented the creation of files outside of s_user_ns of a filesystem,
  but it turns we missed the O_CREAT path. Ooops.

  Pavel Tikhomirov and Oleg Nesterov worked together to fix a long
  standing bug in the implemenation of PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER where only
  children that are forked after the prctl are considered and not
  children forked before the prctl. The only known user of this prctl
  systemd forks all children after the prctl. So no userspace
  regressions will occur. Holding earlier forked children to the same
  rules as later forked children creates a semantic that is sane enough
  to allow checkpoing of processes that use this feature.

  There is a long delayed change by Nikolay Borisov to limit inotify
  instances inside a user namespace.

  Michael Kerrisk extends the API for files used to maniuplate
  namespaces with two new trivial ioctls to allow discovery of the
  hierachy and properties of namespaces.

  Konstantin Khlebnikov with the help of Al Viro adds code that when a
  network namespace exits purges it's sysctl entries from the dcache. As
  in some circumstances this could use a lot of memory.

  Vivek Goyal fixed a bug with stacked filesystems where the permissions
  on the wrong inode were being checked.

  I continue previous work on ptracing across exec. Allowing a file to
  be setuid across exec while being ptraced if the tracer has enough
  credentials in the user namespace, and if the process has CAP_SETUID
  in it's own namespace. Proc files for setuid or otherwise undumpable
  executables are now owned by the root in the user namespace of their
  mm. Allowing debugging of setuid applications in containers to work
  better.

  A bug I introduced with permission checking and automount is now
  fixed. The big change is to mark the mounts that the kernel initiates
  as a result of an automount. This allows the permission checks in sget
  to be safely suppressed for this kind of mount. As the permission
  check happened when the original filesystem was mounted.

  Finally a special case in the mount namespace is removed preventing
  unbounded chains in the mount hash table, and making the semantics
  simpler which benefits CRIU.

  The vfs fix along with related work in ima and evm I believe makes us
  ready to finish developing and merge fully unprivileged mounts of the
  fuse filesystem. The cleanups of the mount namespace makes discussing
  how to fix the worst case complexity of umount. The stacked filesystem
  fixes pave the way for adding multiple mappings for the filesystem
  uids so that efficient and safer containers can be implemented"

Nikolay Borisov 1cce1eea0a inotify: Convert to using per-namespace limits
This patchset converts inotify to using the newly introduced
per-userns sysctl infrastructure.

Currently the inotify instances/watches are being accounted in the
user_struct structure. This means that in setups where multiple
users in unprivileged containers map to the same underlying
real user (i.e. pointing to the same user_struct) the inotify limits
are going to be shared as well, allowing one user(or application) to exhaust
all others limits.

Fix this by switching the inotify sysctls to using the
per-namespace/per-user limits. This will allow the server admin to
set sensible global limits, which can further be tuned inside every
individual user namespace. Additionally, in order to preserve the
sysctl ABI make the existing inotify instances/watches sysctls
modify the values of the initial user namespace.

There are only two calls sites of fsnotify_duplicate_mark(). Those are
in kernel/audit_tree.c and both are bogus. Vfsmount pointer is unused
for audit tree, inode pointer and group gets set in
fsnotify_add_mark_locked() later anyway, mask and free_mark are already
set in alloc_chunk(). In fact, calling fsnotify_duplicate_mark() is
actively harmful because following fsnotify_add_mark_locked() will leak
group reference by overwriting the group pointer. So just remove the two
calls to fsnotify_duplicate_mark() and the function.

Jan Kara 5716863e0f fsnotify: Fix possible use-after-free in inode iteration on umount
fsnotify_unmount_inodes() plays complex tricks to pin next inode in the
sb->s_inodes list when iterating over all inodes. Furthermore the code has a
bug that if the current inode is the last on i_sb_list that does not have e.g.
I_FREEING set, then we leave next_i pointing to inode which may get removed
from the i_sb_list once we drop s_inode_list_lock thus resulting in
use-after-free issues (usually manifesting as infinite looping in
fsnotify_unmount_inodes()).

Fix the problem by keeping current inode pinned somewhat longer. Then we can
make the code much simpler and standard.

When freeing permission events by fsnotify_destroy_event(), the warning
WARN_ON(!list_empty(&event->list)); may falsely hit.

This is because although fanotify_get_response() saw event->response

of the event from the list.  Add proper locking around the WARN_ON() to
avoid the false warning.

Jan Kara 073f65522a fanotify: use notification_lock instead of access_lock
Fanotify code has its own lock (access_lock) to protect a list of events
waiting for a response from userspace.

However this is somewhat awkward as the same list_head in the event is
protected by notification_lock if it is part of the notification queue
and by access_lock if it is part of the fanotify private queue which
makes it difficult for any reliable checks in the generic code.  So make
fanotify use the same lock - notification_lock - for protecting its
private event list.

Jan Kara 1404ff3cc3 fsnotify: drop notification_mutex before destroying event
fsnotify_flush_notify() and fanotify_release() destroy notification
event while holding notification_mutex.

The destruction of fanotify event includes a path_put() call which may
end up calling into a filesystem to delete an inode if we happen to be
the last holders of dentry reference which happens to be the last holder
of inode reference.

That in turn may violate lock ordering for some filesystems since
notification_mutex is also acquired e. g. during write when generating
fanotify event.

Also this is the only thing that forces notification_mutex to be a
sleeping lock.  So drop notification_mutex before destroying a
notification event.

Jan Kara 96d41019e3 fanotify: fix list corruption in fanotify_get_response()
fanotify_get_response() calls fsnotify_remove_event() when it finds that
group is being released from fanotify_release() (bypass_perm is set).

However the event it removes need not be only in the group's notification
queue but it can have already moved to access_list (userspace read the
event before closing the fanotify instance fd) which is protected by a
different lock.  Thus when fsnotify_remove_event() races with
fanotify_release() operating on access_list, the list can get corrupted.

Fix the problem by moving all the logic removing permission events from
the lists to one place - fanotify_release().

Jan Kara 35e481761c fsnotify: avoid spurious EMFILE errors from inotify_init()
Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped.
That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be
closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each
mark holds a reference to the inotify instance).  However marks are
freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if
user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing
inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user
point of view there is always at most one existing instance.  Thus
inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user
point of view.  This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on
some machines.

We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed
while destroying inotify instance.  We wait for SRCU period to end in
that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being
added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance.  So it
takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path
as well and not from a dedicated work item.

We don't require a dedicated thread for fsnotify cleanup.  Switch it
over to a workqueue job instead that runs on the system_unbound_wq.

In the interest of not thrashing the queued job too often when there are

Jeff Layton 13d34ac6e5 Revert "fsnotify: destroy marks with call_srcu instead of dedicated thread"
This reverts commit c510eff6be ("fsnotify: destroy marks with
call_srcu instead of dedicated thread").

Eryu reported that he was seeing some OOM kills kick in when running a
testcase that adds and removes inotify marks on a file in a tight loop.

The above commit changed the code to use call_srcu to clean up the
marks.  While that does (in principle) work, the srcu callback job is
limited to cleaning up entries in small batches and only once per jiffy.
It's easily possible to overwhelm that machinery with too many call_srcu
callbacks, and Eryu's reproduer did just that.

There's also another potential problem with using call_srcu here.  While
you can obviously sleep while holding the srcu_read_lock, the callbacks
run under local_bh_disable, so you can't sleep there.

It's possible when putting the last reference to the fsnotify_mark that
we'll end up putting a chain of references including the fsnotify_group,
uid, and associated keys.  While I don't see any obvious ways that that
could occurs, it's probably still best to avoid using call_srcu here
after all.

This patch reverts the above patch.  A later patch will take a different
approach to eliminated the dedicated thread here.

Jeff Layton c510eff6be fsnotify: destroy marks with call_srcu instead of dedicated thread
At the time that this code was originally written, call_srcu didn't
exist, so this thread was required to ensure that we waited for that
SRCU grace period to settle before finally freeing the object.

It does exist now however and we can much more efficiently use call_srcu
to handle this.  That also allows us to potentially use srcu_barrier to
ensure that they are all of the callbacks have run before proceeding.
In order to conserve space, we union the rcu_head with the g_list.

This will be necessary for nfsd which will allocate marks from a
dedicated slabcache.  We have to be able to ensure that all of the
objects are destroyed before destroying the cache.  That's fairly

Dave Hansen d30e2c05a1 inotify: actually check for invalid bits in sys_inotify_add_watch()
The comment here says that it is checking for invalid bits.  But, the mask
is *actually* checking to ensure that _any_ valid bit is set, which is
quite different.

Without this check, an unexpected bit could get set on an inotify object.
Since these bits are also interpreted by the fsnotify/dnotify code, there
is the potential for an object to be mishandled inside the kernel.  For
instance, can we be sure that setting the dnotify flag FS_DN_RENAME on an
inotify watch is harmless?

Add the actual check which was intended.  Retain the existing inotify bits
are being added to the watch.  Plus, this is existing behavior which would
be nice to preserve.

I did a quick sniff test that inotify functions and that my
'inotify-tools' package passes 'make check'.

Dave Hansen 6933599697 inotify: hide internal kernel bits from fdinfo
There was a report that my patch:

    inotify: actually check for invalid bits in sys_inotify_add_watch()

broke CRIU.

The reason is that CRIU looks up raw flags in /proc/$pid/fdinfo/* to
figure out how to rebuild inotify watches and then passes those flags
directly back in to the inotify API.  One of those flags
(FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD) is set in mark->mask, but is not part of the inotify
API.  It is used inside the kernel to _implement_ inotify but it is not
and has never been part of the API.

My patch above ensured that we only allow bits which are part of the API
(IN_ALL_EVENTS).  This broke CRIU.

FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD is really internal to the kernel.  It is set _anyway_ on
all inotify marks.  So, CRIU was really just trying to set a bit that was
already set.

This patch hides that bit from fdinfo.  CRIU will not see the bit, not try
to set it, and should work as before.  We should not have been exposing
this bit in the first place, so this is a good patch independent of the
CRIU problem.

Jan Kara 4712e722f9 fsnotify: get rid of fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked()
fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked() is subtle to use because it temporarily
releases group->mark_mutex.  To avoid future problems with this
function, split it into two.

fsnotify_detach_mark() is the part that needs group->mark_mutex and
fsnotify_free_mark() is the part that must be called outside of
group->mark_mutex.  This way it's much clearer what's going on and we
also avoid some pointless acquisitions of group->mark_mutex.

A check in inotify_fdinfo() checking whether mark is valid was always

Dave Hansen 7c49b86164 fs/notify: optimize inotify/fsnotify code for unwatched files
I have a _tiny_ microbenchmark that sits in a loop and writes single
bytes to a file.  Writing one byte to a tmpfs file is around 2x slower
than reading one byte from a file, which is a _bit_ more than I expecte.
This is a dumb benchmark, but I think it's hard to deny that write() is
a hot path and we should avoid unnecessary overhead there.

I did a 'perf record' of 30-second samples of read and write.  The top
item in a diffprofile is srcu_read_lock() from fsnotify().  There are
active inotify fd's from systemd, but nothing is actually listening to
the file or its part of the filesystem.

I *think* we can avoid taking the srcu_read_lock() for the common case
where there are no actual marks on the file.  This means that there will
both be nothing to notify for *and* implies that there is no need for
clearing the ignore mask.

This patch gave a 13.1% speedup in writes/second on my test, which is an
improvement from the 10.8% that I saw with the last version.

Dave Chinner 74278da9f7 inode: convert inode_sb_list_lock to per-sb
The process of reducing contention on per-superblock inode lists
starts with moving the locking to match the per-superblock inode
list. This takes the global lock out of the picture and reduces the
contention problems to within a single filesystem. This doesn't get
rid of contention as the locks still have global CPU scope, but it
does isolate operations on different superblocks form each other.

Jan Kara 8f2f3eb59d fsnotify: fix oops in fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags()
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can race with
fsnotify_destroy_marks() so that when fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked()
drops mark_mutex, a mark from the list iterated by
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can be freed and thus the next
entry pointer we have cached may become stale and we dereference free
memory.

Fix the problem by first moving marks to free to a special private list
and then always free the first entry in the special list.  This method
is safe even when entries from the list can disappear once we drop the
lock.

Linus Torvalds d725e66c06 Revert "fsnotify: fix oops in fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags()"
This reverts commit a2673b6e04.

Kinglong Mee reports a memory leak with that patch, and Jan Kara confirms:

 "Thanks for report! You are right that my patch introduces a race
  between fsnotify kthread and fsnotify_destroy_group() which can result
  in leaking inotify event on group destruction.

  I haven't yet decided whether the right fix is not to queue events for
  dying notification group (as that is pointless anyway) or whether we
  should just fix the original problem differently...  Whenever I look
  at fsnotify code mark handling I get lost in the maze of locks, lists,
  and subtle differences between how different notification systems
  handle notification marks :( I'll think about it over night"

and after thinking about it, Jan says:

 "OK, I have looked into the code some more and I found another
  relatively simple way of fixing the original oops.  It will be IMHO
  better than trying to fixup this issue which has more potential for
  breakage.  I'll ask Linus to revert the fsnotify fix he already merged
  and send a new fix"

mark_mutex, a mark from the list iterated by
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can be freed and we dereference free

Fix the problem by keeping mark_mutex held in
fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked().  The reason why we drop that mutex is that
we need to call a ->freeing_mark() callback which may acquire mark_mutex
again.  To avoid this and similar lock inversion issues, we move the call
to ->freeing_mark() callback to the kthread destroying the mark.

Paul Gortmaker c013d5a458 fs/notify: don't use module_init for non-modular inotify_user code
The INOTIFY_USER option is bool, and hence this code is either
present or absent.  It will never be modular, so using
module_init as an alias for __initcall is rather misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which
makes sense for fs code) will thus change this registration
from level 6-device to level 5-fs (i.e. slightly earlier).
However no observable impact of that small difference has
been observed during testing, or is expected.

Suzuki K. Poulose b3c1030d50 fanotify: fix event filtering with FAN_ONDIR set
With FAN_ONDIR set, the user can end up getting events, which it hasn't
marked.  This was revealed with fanotify04 testcase failure on
Linux-4.0-rc1, and is a regression from 3.19, revealed with 66ba93c0d7
("fanotify: don't set FAN_ONDIR implicitly on a marks ignored mask").

   # /opt/ltp/testcases/bin/fanotify04
   [ ... ]
  fanotify04    7  TPASS  :  event generated properly for type 100000
  fanotify04    8  TFAIL  :  fanotify04.c:147: got unexpected event 30
  fanotify04    9  TPASS  :  No event as expected

The testcase sets the adds the following marks : FAN_OPEN | FAN_ONDIR for
a fanotify on a dir.  Then does an open(), followed by close() of the
directory and expects to see an event FAN_OPEN(0x20).  However, the
fanotify returns (FAN_OPEN|FAN_CLOSE_NOWRITE(0x10)).  This happens due to
the flaw in the check for event_mask in fanotify_should_send_event() which
does:

	if (event_mask & marks_mask & ~marks_ignored_mask)
		return true;

where, event_mask == (FAN_ONDIR | FAN_CLOSE_NOWRITE),
       marks_mask == (FAN_ONDIR | FAN_OPEN),
       marks_ignored_mask == 0

Fix this by masking the outgoing events to the user, as we already take
care of FAN_ONDIR and FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD.

David Howells e36cb0b89c VFS: (Scripted) Convert S_ISLNK/DIR/REG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_*(dentry)
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.

The following perl+coccinelle script was used:

use strict;

my @callers;
open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*->d_inode\' |') ||
    die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers";
@callers = <$fd>;
close($fd);
unless (@callers) {
    print "No matches\n";
    exit(0);
}

my @cocci = (
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISLNK(E->d_inode->i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_symlink(E)',

    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISREG(E->d_inode->i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_reg(E)' );

my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci";
open($fd, ">$coccifile") || die $coccifile;
print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci);
close($fd);

foreach my $file (@callers) {
    chomp $file;
    print "Processing ", $file, "\n";
    system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 ||

Lino Sanfilippo 66ba93c0d7 fanotify: don't set FAN_ONDIR implicitly on a marks ignored mask
Currently FAN_ONDIR is always set on a mark's ignored mask when the
event mask is extended without FAN_MARK_ONDIR being set.  This may
result in events for directories being ignored unexpectedly for call
sequences like

  fanotify_mark(fd, FAN_MARK_ADD, FAN_OPEN | FAN_ONDIR , AT_FDCWD, "dir");
  fanotify_mark(fd, FAN_MARK_ADD, FAN_CLOSE, AT_FDCWD, "dir");

Also FAN_MARK_ONDIR is only honored when adding events to a mark's mask,
but not for event removal.  Fix both issues by not setting FAN_ONDIR
implicitly on the ignore mask any more.  Instead treat FAN_ONDIR as any
other event flag and require FAN_MARK_ONDIR to be set by the user for
both event mask and ignore mask.  Furthermore take FAN_MARK_ONDIR into
account when set for event removal.

Peter Zijlstra 536ebe9ca9 sched, fanotify: Deal with nested sleeps
As per e23738a730 ("sched, inotify: Deal with nested sleeps").

fanotify_read is a wait loop with sleeps in. Wait loops rely on
task_struct::state and sleeps do too, since that's the only means of
actually sleeping. Therefore the nested sleeps destroy the wait loop
state and the wait loop breaks the sleep functions that assume
TASK_RUNNING (mutex_lock).

Fix this by using the new woken_wake_function and wait_woken() stuff,
which registers wakeups in wait and thereby allows shrinking the
task_state::state changes to the actual sleep part.

Linus Torvalds 86c6a2fddf Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle are:

   - 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.

     This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest
     blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop.  Such
     bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.

     Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
     is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() ->
     sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug().

     There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
     primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
     kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
     isn't much of a nuisance.

     This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered
     with it, so no messages are expected normally.

   - Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for
     CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y.

   - Another round of sched/dl fixes and refinements.

  Plus various smaller fixes and cleanups"

Al Viro 8ce74dd605 Merge tag 'trace-seq-file-cleanup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace into for-next
Pull the beginning of seq_file cleanup from Steven:
  "I'm looking to clean up the seq_file code and to eventually merge the
  trace_seq code with seq_file as well, since they basically do the same thing.

  Part of this process is to remove the return code of seq_printf() and friends
  as they are rather inconsistent. It is better to use the new function
  seq_has_overflowed() if you want to stop processing when the buffer
  is full. Note, if the buffer is full, the seq_file code will throw away
  the contents, allocate a bigger buffer, and then call your code again
  to fill in the data. The only thing that breaking out of the function
  early does is to save a little time which is probably never noticed.

  I started with patches from Joe Perches and modified them as well.
  There's many more places that need to be updated before we can convert
  seq_printf() and friends to return void. But this patch set introduces
  the seq_has_overflowed() and does some initial updates."
