commit 52dfd86aa568e433b24357bb5fc725560f1e22d8 upstream.
Opening a new file is done in 2 steps on regular filesystems:
1. Call the create inode-op on the parent-dir to create an inode
to hold the meta-data related to the file.
2. Call the open file-op to get a handle for the file.
vboxsf however does not really use disk-backed inodes because it
is based on passing through file-related system-calls through to
the hypervisor. So both steps translate to an open(2) call being
passed through to the hypervisor. With the handle returned by
the first call immediately being closed again.
Making 2 open calls for a single open(..., O_CREATE, ...) calls
has 2 problems:
a) It is not really efficient.
b) It actually breaks some apps.
An example of b) is doing a git clone inside a vboxsf mount.
When git clone tries to create a tempfile to store the pak
files which is downloading the following happens:
1. vboxsf_dir_mkfile() gets called with a mode of 0444 and succeeds.
2. vboxsf_file_open() gets called with file->f_flags containing
O_RDWR. When the host is a Linux machine this fails because doing
a open(..., O_RDWR) on a file which exists and has mode 0444 results
in an -EPERM error.
Other network-filesystems and fuse avoid the problem of needing to
pass 2 open() calls to the other side by using the atomic_open
directory-inode op.
This commit fixes git clone not working inside a vboxsf mount,
by adding support for the atomic_open directory-inode op.
As an added bonus this should also make opening new files faster.
The atomic_open implementation is modelled after the atomic_open
implementations from the 9p and fuse code.

commit ab0c29687bc7a890d1a86ac376b0b0fd78b2d9b6 upstream
Make vboxsf_dir_create() optionally return the vboxsf-handle for
the created file. This is a preparation patch for adding atomic_open
support.

commit cc3ddee97cff034cea4d095de4a484c92a219bf5 upstream
Honor the excl flag to the dir-inode create op, instead of behaving
as if it is always set.
Note the old behavior still worked most of the time since a non-exclusive
open only calls the create op, if there is a race and the file is created
between the dentry lookup and the calling of the create call.
While at it change the type of the is_dir parameter to the
vboxsf_dir_create() helper from an int to a bool, to be consistent with
the use of bool for the excl parameter.

VirtualBox hosts can share folders with guests, this commit adds a
VFS driver implementing the Linux-guest side of this, allowing folders
exported by the host to be mounted under Linux.
This driver depends on the guest <-> host IPC functions exported by
the vboxguest driver.
