Overlayfs's volatile option allows the user to bypass all forced sync calls
to the upperdir filesystem. This comes at the cost of safety. We can never
ensure that the user's data is intact, but we can make a best effort to
expose whether or not the data is likely to be in a bad state.
The best way to handle this in the time being is that if an overlayfs's
upperdir experiences an error after a volatile mount occurs, that error
will be returned on fsync, fdatasync, sync, and syncfs. This is
contradictory to the traditional behaviour of VFS which fails the call
once, and only raises an error if a subsequent fsync error has occurred,
and been raised by the filesystem.
One awkward aspect of the patch is that we have to manually set the
superblock's errseq_t after the sync_fs callback as opposed to just
returning an error from syncfs. This is because the call chain looks
something like this:
sys_syncfs ->
sync_filesystem ->
__sync_filesystem ->
/* The return value is ignored here
sb->s_op->sync_fs(sb)
_sync_blockdev
/* Where the VFS fetches the error to raise to userspace */
errseq_check_and_advance
Because of this we call errseq_set every time the sync_fs callback occurs.
Due to the nature of this seen / unseen dichotomy, if the upperdir is an
inconsistent state at the initial mount time, overlayfs will refuse to
mount, as overlayfs cannot get a snapshot of the upperdir's errseq that
will increment on error until the user calls syncfs.

When inode has no listxattr op of its own (e.g. squashfs) vfs_listxattr
calls the LSM inode_listsecurity hooks to list the xattrs that LSMs will
intercept in inode_getxattr hooks.
When selinux LSM is installed but not initialized, it will list the
security.selinux xattr in inode_listsecurity, but will not intercept it
in inode_getxattr. This results in -ENODATA for a getxattr call for an
xattr returned by listxattr.
This situation was manifested as overlayfs failure to copy up lower
files from squashfs when selinux is built-in but not initialized,
because ovl_copy_xattr() iterates the lower inode xattrs by
vfs_listxattr() and vfs_getxattr().
ovl_copy_xattr() skips copy up of security labels that are indentified by
inode_copy_up_xattr LSM hooks, but it does that after vfs_getxattr().
Since we are not going to copy them, skip vfs_getxattr() of the security
labels.

The function ovl_dir_real_file() currently uses the inode lock to serialize
writes to the od->upperfile field.
However, this function will get called by ovl_ioctl_set_flags(), which
utilizes the inode lock too. In this case ovl_dir_real_file() will try to
claim a lock that is owned by a function in its call stack, which won't get
released before ovl_dir_real_file() returns.
Fix by replacing the open coded compare and exchange by an explicit atomic

This replaces uuid with null in overlayfs file handles and thus relaxes
uuid checks for overlay index feature. It is only possible in case there is
only one filesystem for all the work/upper/lower directories and bare file
handles from this backing filesystem are unique. In other case when we have
multiple filesystems lets just fallback to "uuid=on" which is and
equivalent of how it worked before with all uuid checks.
This is needed when overlayfs is/was mounted in a container with index
enabled (e.g.: to be able to resolve inotify watch file handles on it to
paths in CRIU), and this container is copied and started alongside with the
original one. This way the "copy" container can't have the same uuid on the
superblock and mounting the overlayfs from it later would fail.
That is an example of the problem on top of loop+ext4:

losetup -fP loopbackfile.img
losetup -a

Container folks are complaining that dnf/yum issues too many sync while
installing packages and this slows down the image build. Build requirement
is such that they don't care if a node goes down while build was still
going on. In that case, they will simply throw away unfinished layer and
start new build. So they don't care about syncing intermediate state to the
disk and hence don't want to pay the price associated with sync.
So they are asking for mount options where they can disable sync on overlay
mount point.
They primarily seem to have two use cases.
- For building images, they will mount overlay with nosync and then sync
upper layer after unmounting overlay and reuse upper as lower for next
layer.
- For running containers, they don't seem to care about syncing upper layer
because if node goes down, they will simply throw away upper layer and
create a fresh one.
So this patch provides a mount option "volatile" which disables all forms
of sync. Now it is caller's responsibility to throw away upper if system
crashes or shuts down and start fresh.
With "volatile", I am seeing roughly 20% speed up in my VM where I am just
installing emacs in an image. Installation time drops from 31 seconds to 25
seconds when nosync option is used. This is for the case of building on top
of an image where all packages are already cached. That way I take out the
network operations latency out of the measurement.
Giuseppe is also looking to cut down on number of iops done on the disk. He
is complaining that often in cloud their VMs are throttled if they cross
the limit. This option can help them where they reduce number of iops (by
cutting down on frequent sync and writebacks).

This commit checks for marked incompat features, warns about them
and fails to mount the overlay, for example:
overlayfs: overlay with incompat feature 'volatile' cannot be mounted
Very old kernels (i.e. v3.18) will fail to remove a non-empty "work"
dir and fail the mount. Newer kernels will fail to remove a "work"
dir with entries nested 3 levels and fall back to read-only mount.
User mounting with old kernel will see a warning like these in dmesg:
overlayfs: cleanup of 'incompat/...' failed (-39)
overlayfs: cleanup of 'work/incompat' failed (-39)
overlayfs: cleanup of 'ovl-work/work' failed (-39)
overlayfs: failed to create directory /vdf/ovl-work/work (errno: 17);
mounting read-only
These warnings should give the hint to the user that:
1. mount failure is caused by backward incompatible features
2. mount failure can be resolved by manually removing the "work" directory
There is nothing preventing users on old kernels from manually removing
workdir entirely or mounting overlay with a new workdir, so this is in
no way a full proof backward compatibility enforcement, but only a best
effort.

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.
In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:
git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
xargs perl -pi -e \
's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'
drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.
No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

We recently moved setting inode flag OVL_UPPERDATA to ovl_lookup().
When looking up an overlay dentry, upperdentry may be found by index
and not by name. In that case, we fail to read the metacopy xattr
and falsly set the OVL_UPPERDATA on the overlay inode.
This caused a regression in xfstest overlay/033 when run with
OVERLAY_MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o metacopy=on".

The check if user has changed the overlay file was wrong, causing unneeded
call to ovl_change_flags() including taking f_lock on every file access.

Without upperdir mount option, there is no index dir and the dependency
checks nfs_export => index for mount options parsing are incorrect.
Allow the combination nfs_export=on,index=off with no upperdir and move
the check for dependency redirect_dir=nofollow for non-upper mount case
to mount options parsing.

With index feature enabled, on failure to create index dir, overlay is
being mounted read-only. However, we do not forbid user to remount overlay
read-write. Fix that by setting ofs->workdir to NULL, which prevents
remount read-write.

Commit 9df085f3c9a2 ("ovl: relax requirement for non null uuid of lower
fs") relaxed the requirement for non null uuid with single lower layer to
allow enabling index and nfs_export features with single lower squashfs.
Fabian reported a regression in a setup when overlay re-uses an existing
upper layer and re-formats the lower squashfs image. Because squashfs
has no uuid, the origin xattr in upper layer are decoded from the new
lower layer where they may resolve to a wrong origin file and user may
get an ESTALE or EIO error on lookup.
To avoid the reported regression while still allowing the new features
with single lower squashfs, do not allow decoding origin with lower null
uuid unless user opted-in to one of the new features that require
following the lower inode of non-dir upper (index, xino, metacopy).

Mounting with nfs_export=on, xfstests overlay/031 triggers a kernel panic
since v5.8-rc1 overlayfs updates.
overlayfs: orphan index entry (index/00fb1..., ftype=4000, nlink=2)
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030
RIP: 0010:ovl_cleanup_and_whiteout+0x28/0x220 [overlay]
Bisect point at commit c21c839b8448 ("ovl: whiteout inode sharing")
Minimal reproducer:
--------------------------------------------------
rm -rf l u w m
mkdir -p l u w m
mkdir -p l/testdir
touch l/testdir/testfile
mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=l,upperdir=u,workdir=w,nfs_export=on overlay m
echo 1 > m/testdir/testfile
umount m
rm -rf u/testdir
mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=l,upperdir=u,workdir=w,nfs_export=on overlay m
umount m
--------------------------------------------------
When mount with nfs_export=on, and fail to verify an orphan index, we're
cleaning this index from indexdir by calling ovl_cleanup_and_whiteout().
This dereferences ofs->workdir, that was earlier set to NULL.
The design was that ovl->workdir will point at ovl->indexdir, but we are
assigning ofs->indexdir to ofs->workdir only after ovl_indexdir_cleanup().
There is no reason not to do it sooner, because once we get success from
ofs->indexdir = ovl_workdir_create(... there is no turning back.
