fanotify has a very limited number of events it sends on directories. The
usefulness of these events is yet to be seen and still we send them. This
is particularly painful for mount marks where one might receive many of
these useless events. As such this patch will drop events on IS_DIR()
inodes unless they were explictly requested with FAN_ON_DIR.
This means that a mark on a directory without FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD or
FAN_ON_DIR is meaningless and will result in no events ever (although it
will still be allowed since detecting it is hard)

fanotify currently has no limit on the number of listeners a given user can
have open. This patch limits the total number of listeners per user to
128. This is the same as the inotify default limit.
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
Some fanotify groups, especially those like AV scanners, will need to place
lots of marks, particularly ignore marks. Since ignore marks do not pin
inodes in cache and are cleared if the inode is removed from core (usually
under memory pressure) we expose an interface for listeners, with
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, to override the maximum number of marks and be allowed to
set and 'unlimited' number of marks. Programs which make use of this
feature will be able to OOM a machine.

There is currently no limit on the number of marks a given fanotify group
can have. Since fanotify is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN this was not seen as
a serious DoS threat. This patch implements a default of 8192, the same as
inotify to work towards removing the CAP_SYS_ADMIN gating and eliminating
the default DoS'able status.

fanotify has a defualt max queue depth. This patch allows processes which
explicitly request it to have an 'unlimited' queue depth. These processes
need to be very careful to make sure they cannot fall far enough behind
that they OOM the box. Thus this flag is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
Currently fanotify has no maximum queue depth. Since fanotify is
CAP_SYS_ADMIN only this does not pose a normal user DoS issue, but it
certianly is possible that an fanotify listener which can't keep up could
OOM the box. This patch implements a default 16k depth. This is the same
default depth used by inotify, but given fanotify's better queue merging in
many situations this queue will contain many additional useful events by
comparison.

fanotify is supposed to be able to flush all marks. This is mostly useful
for the AV community to flush all cached decisions on a security policy
change. This functionality has existed in the kernel but wasn't correctly
exposed to userspace.

fsnotify perm events do not call fsnotify parent. That means you cannot
register a perm event on a directory and enforce permissions on all inodes in
that directory. This patch fixes that situation.
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
When fsnotify groups return errors they are ignored. For permissions
events these should be passed back up the stack, but for most events these
should continue to be ignored.

Currently the userspace struct exposed by fanotify uses
__attribute__((packed)) to make sure that alignment works on multiarch
platforms. Since this causes a severe performance penalty on some
platforms we are going to switch to using explicit alignment notation on
the 64bit values so we don't have to use 'packed'

The fanotify listeners needs to be able to specify what types of operations
they are going to perform so they can be ordered appropriately between other
listeners doing other types of operations. They need this to be able to make
sure that things like hierarchichal storage managers will get access to inodes
before processes which need the data. This patch defines 3 possible uses
which groups must indicate in the fanotify_init() flags.
FAN_CLASS_PRE_CONTENT
FAN_CLASS_CONTENT
FAN_CLASS_NOTIF
Groups will receive notification in that order. The order between 2 groups in
the same class is undeterministic.
FAN_CLASS_PRE_CONTENT is intended to be used by listeners which need access to
the inode before they are certain that the inode contains it's final data. A
hierarchical storage manager should choose to use this class.
FAN_CLASS_CONTENT is intended to be used by listeners which need access to the
inode after it contains its intended contents. This would be the appropriate
level for an AV solution or document control system.
FAN_CLASS_NOTIF is intended for normal async notification about access, much the
same as inotify and dnotify. Syncronous permissions events are not permitted
at this class.
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
fanotify needs to be able to specify that some groups get events before
others. They use this idea to make sure that a hierarchical storage
manager gets access to files before programs which actually use them. This
is purely infrastructure. Everything will have a priority of 0, but the
infrastructure will exist for it to be non-zero.

Commit 84061e0 fixed an accounting bug only to introduce the
possibility of a kernel OOPS if the journal has a non-zero j_errno
field indicating that the file system had detected a fs inconsistency.
After the journal replay, if the journal superblock indicates that the
file system has an error, this indication is transfered to the file
system and then ext4_commit_super() is called to write this to the
disk.
But since the percpu counters are now initialized after the journal
replay, the call to ext4_commit_super() will cause a kernel oops since
it needs to use the percpu counters the ext4 superblock structure.
The fix is to skip setting the ext4 free block and free inode fields
if the percpu counter has not been set.
Thanks to Ken Sumrall for reporting and analyzing the root causes of
this bug.

f446daaea9
mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging
but since we forked write_cache_pages, we need to reimplement
it there (and in ext4_da_writepages, since range_cyclic handling
was moved to there)
If you start a large buffered IO to a file, and then set
fsync after it, you'll find that fsync does not complete
until the other IO stops.
If you continue re-dirtying the file (say, putting dd
with conv=notrunc in a loop), when fsync finally completes
(after all IO is done), it reports via tracing that
it has written many more pages than the file contains;
in other words it has synced and re-synced pages in
the file multiple times.
This then leads to problems with our writeback_index
update, since it advances it by pages written, and
essentially sets writeback_index off the end of the
file...
With the following patch, we only sync as much as was
dirty at the time of the sync.

Adds an filesystem independent ioctl to allow implementation of file
system batched discard support. I takes fstrim_range structure as an
argument. fstrim_range is definec in the include/fs.h and its
definition is as follows.
struct fstrim_range {
start;
len;
minlen;
}
start - first Byte to trim
len - number of Bytes to trim from start
minlen - minimum extent length to trim, free extents shorter than this
number of Bytes will be ignored. This will be rounded up to fs
block size.
It is also possible to specify NULL as an argument. In this case the
arguments will set itself as follows:
start = 0;
len = ULLONG_MAX;
minlen = 0;
So it will trim the whole file system at one run.
After the FITRIM is done, the number of actually discarded Bytes is stored
in fstrim_range.len to give the user better insight on how much storage
space has been really released for wear-leveling.

Many tracepoints were populating an ext4_allocation_context
to pass in, but this requires a slab allocation even when
tracepoints are off. In fact, 4 of 5 of these allocations
were only for tracing. In addition, we were only using a
small fraction of the 144 bytes of this structure for this
purpose.
We can do away with all these alloc/frees of the ac and
simply pass in the bits we care about, instead.
I tested this by turning on tracing and running through
xfstests on x86_64. I did not actually do anything with

Our QA reported an oops in the ext4_mb_release_group_pa tracing,
and Josef Bacik pointed out that it was because we may have a
non-null but uninitialized ac_inode in the allocation context.
I can reproduce it when running xfstests with ext4 tracepoints on,
on a CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG kernel.
We call trace_ext4_mb_release_group_pa from 2 places,
ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations and
ext4_mb_discard_lg_preallocations
In both cases we allocate an ac as a container just for tracing (!)
and never fill in the ac_inode. There's no reason to be assigning,
testing, or printing it as far as I can see, so just remove it from
the tracepoint.

This fixes a hang seen in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode
on a lot of Power 6 systems running with ext4. When we get
in the hung state, all I/O to the disk in question gets blocked
where we stay indefinitely. Looking at the task list, I can see
we are stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode waiting on a
wake up. I added some debug code to detect this scenario and
dump additional data if we were stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode
for longer than 30 minutes. When it hit, I was able to see that
i_flags was 0, suggesting we missed the wake up.
This patch changes i_flags to be an unsigned long, uses bit operators
to access it, and adds barriers around the accesses. Prior to applying
this patch, we were regularly hitting this hang on numerous systems
in our test environment. After applying the patch, the hangs no longer
occur.
