Linus Torvalds 48023102b7 Merge branch 'overlayfs-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs
Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:
 "In addition to bug fixes and cleanups there are two new features from
  Amir:

   - Consistent inode number support for the case when layers are not
     all on the same filesystem (feature is dubbed "xino").

   - Optimize overlayfs file handle decoding. This one touches the
     exportfs interface to allow detecting the disconnected directory
     case"

Linus Torvalds 4ac1800f81 We decided to request the latest three patches to be merged into this
merge window while it's still open.
 
 1. The first patch adds a new function to lockref: lockref_put_not_zero
 2. The second patch fixes GFS2's glock dump code so it uses the new lockref
    function. This fixes a problem whereby lock dumps could miss glocks.
 3. I made a minor patch to update some comments and fix the lock ordering
    text in our gfs2-glocks.txt Documentation file.

Linus Torvalds b284d4d5a6 The big ticket items are:
- support for rbd "fancy" striping (myself).  The striping feature bit
   is now fully implemented, allowing mapping v2 images with non-default
   striping patterns.  This completes support for --image-format 2.
 
 - CephFS quota support (Luis Henriques and Zheng Yan).  This set is
   based on the new SnapRealm code in the upcoming v13.y.z ("Mimic")
   release.  Quota handling will be rejected on older filesystems.
 
 - memory usage improvements in CephFS (Chengguang Xu).  Directory
   specific bits have been split out of ceph_file_info and some effort
   went into improving cap reservation code to avoid OOM crashes.
 
 Also included a bunch of assorted fixes all over the place from
 Chengguang and others.

David Howells 6f8880d8e6 afs: Implement @sys substitution handling
Implement the AFS feature by which @sys at the end of a pathname component
may be substituted for one of a list of values, typically naming the
operating system.  Up to 16 alternatives may be specified and these are
tried in turn until one works.  Each network namespace has[*] a separate
independent list.

Upon creation of a new network namespace, the list of values is
initialised[*] to a single OpenAFS-compatible string representing arch type
plus "_linux26".  For example, on x86_64, the sysname is "amd64_linux26".

[*] Or will, once network namespace support is finalised in kAFS.

The list may be set by:

	# for i in foo bar linux-x86_64; do echo $i; done >/proc/fs/afs/sysname

for which separate writes to the same fd are amalgamated and applied on
close.  The LF character may be used as a separator to specify multiple
items in the same write() call.

The list may be cleared by:

	# echo >/proc/fs/afs/sysname

and read by:

	# cat /proc/fs/afs/sysname
	foo
	bar
	linux-x86_64

Merge tag 'fscache-next-20180406' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs

Pull fscache updates from David Howells:
 "Three patches that fix some of AFS's usage of fscache:

   (1) Need to invalidate the cache if a foreign data change is detected
       on the server.

   (2) Move the vnode ID uniquifier (equivalent to i_generation) from
       the auxiliary data to the index key to prevent a race between
       file delete and a subsequent file create seeing the same index
       key.

   (3) Need to retire cookies that correspond to files that we think got
       deleted on the server.

  Four patches to fix some things in fscache and cachefiles:

   (4) Fix a couple of checker warnings.

   (5) Correctly indicate to the end-of-operation callback whether an
       operation completed or was cancelled.

   (6) Add a check for multiple cookie relinquishment.

   (7) Fix a path through the asynchronous write that doesn't wake up a
       waiter for a page if the cache decides not to write that page,
       but discards it instead.

  A couple of patches to add tracepoints to fscache and cachefiles:

   (8) Add tracepoints for cookie operators, object state machine
       execution, cachefiles object management and cachefiles VFS
       operations.

   (9) Add tracepoints for fscache operation management and page
       wrangling.

  And then three development patches:

  (10) Attach the index key and auxiliary data to the cookie, pass this
       information through various fscache-netfs API functions and get
       rid of the callbacks to the netfs to get it.

       This means that the cache can get at this information, even if
       the netfs goes away. It also means that the cache can be lazy in
       updating the coherency data.

  (11) Pass the object data size through various fscache-netfs API
       rather than calling back to the netfs for it, and store the value
       in the object.

       This makes it easier to correctly resize the object, as the size
       is updated on writes to the cache, rather than calling back out
       to the netfs.

  (12) Maintain a catalogue of allocated cookies. This makes it possible
       to catch cookie collision up front rather than down in the bowels
       of the cache being run from a service thread from the object
       state machine.

       This will also make it possible in the future to reconnect to a
       cookie that's not gone dead yet because it's waiting for
       finalisation of the storage and also make it possible to bring
       cookies online if the cache is added after the cookie has been
       obtained"

David Howells ee1235a9a0 fscache: Pass object size in rather than calling back for it
Pass the object size in to fscache_acquire_cookie() and
fscache_write_page() rather than the netfs providing a callback by which it
can be received.  This makes it easier to update the size of the object
when a new page is written that extends the object.

The current object size is also passed by fscache to the check_aux
function, obviating the need to store it in the aux data.

Linus Torvalds 274c0e74e5 f2fs-for-4.17-rc1
In this round, we've mainly focused on performance tuning and critical bug fixes
 occurred in low-end devices. Sheng Yong introduced lost_found feature to keep
 missing files during recovery instead of thrashing them. We're preparing coming
 fsverity implementation. And, we've got more features to communicate with users
 for better performance. In low-end devices, some memory-related issues were
 fixed, and subtle race condtions and corner cases were addressed as well.
 
 Enhancement:
  - large nat bitmaps for more free node ids
  - add three block allocation policies to pass down write hints given by user
  - expose extension list to user and introduce hot file extension
  - tune small devices seamlessly for low-end devices
  - set readdir_ra by default
  - give more resources under gc_urgent mode regarding to discard and cleaning
  - introduce fsync_mode to enforce posix or not
  - nowait aio support
  - add lost_found feature to keep dangling inodes
  - reserve bits for future fsverity feature
  - add test_dummy_encryption for FBE
 
 Bug fix:
  - don't use highmem for dentry pages
  - align memory boundary for bitops
  - truncate preallocated blocks in write errors
  - guarantee i_times on fsync call
  - clear CP_TRIMMED_FLAG correctly
  - prevent node chain loop during recovery
  - avoid data race between atomic write and background cleaning
  - avoid unnecessary selinux violation warnings on resgid option
  - GFP_NOFS to avoid deadlock in quota and read paths
  - fix f2fs_skip_inode_update to allow i_size recovery
 
 In addition to them, there are several minor bug fixes and clean-ups.

David Howells 402cb8dda9 fscache: Attach the index key and aux data to the cookie
Attach copies of the index key and auxiliary data to the fscache cookie so
that:

 (1) The callbacks to the netfs for this stuff can be eliminated.  This
     can simplify things in the cache as the information is still
     available, even after the cache has relinquished the cookie.

 (2) Simplifies the locking requirements of accessing the information as we
     don't have to worry about the netfs object going away on us.

 (3) The cache can do lazy updating of the coherency information on disk.
     As long as the cache is flushed before reboot/poweroff, there's no
     need to update the coherency info on disk every time it changes.

 (4) Cookies can be hashed or put in a tree as the index key is easily
     available.  This allows:

     (a) Checks for duplicate cookies can be made at the top fscache layer
     	 rather than down in the bowels of the cache backend.

     (b) Caching can be added to a netfs object that has a cookie if the
     	 cache is brought online after the netfs object is allocated.

A certain amount of space is made in the cookie for inline copies of the
data, but if it won't fit there, extra memory will be allocated for it.

The downside of this is that live cache operation requires more memory.

Luis Henriques 9122eed528 ceph: quota: report root dir quota usage in statfs
This commit changes statfs default behaviour when reporting usage
statistics.  Instead of using the overall filesystem usage, statfs now
reports the quota for the filesystem root, if ceph.quota.max_bytes has
been set for this inode.  If quota hasn't been set, it falls back to the
old statfs behaviour.

A new mount option is also added ('noquotadf') to disable this behaviour.

This patch adds the infrastructure required to support cephfs quotas as it
is currently implemented in the ceph fuse client.  Cephfs quotas can be
set on any directory, and can restrict the number of bytes or the number
of files stored beneath that point in the directory hierarchy.

Quotas are set using the extended attributes 'ceph.quota.max_files' and
'ceph.quota.max_bytes', and can be removed by setting these attributes to
'0'.

Junling Zheng 93cf93f17c f2fs: introduce mount option for fsync mode
Commit "0a007b97aad6"(f2fs: recover directory operations by fsync)
fixed xfstest generic/342 case, but it also increased the written
data and caused the performance degradation. In most cases, there's
no need to do so heavy fsync actually.

So we introduce new mount option "fsync_mode={posix,strict}" to
control the policy of fsync. "fsync_mode=posix" is set by default,
and means that f2fs uses a light fsync, which follows POSIX semantics.
And "fsync_mode=strict" means that it's a heavy fsync, which behaves
in line with xfs, ext4 and btrfs, where generic/342 will pass, but
the performance will regress.

Support the AFS dynamic root which is a pseudo-volume that doesn't connect
to any server resource, but rather is just a root directory that
dynamically creates mountpoint directories where the name of such a
directory is the name of the cell.

Such a mount can be created thus:

	mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn

Dynamic root superblocks aren't shared except by bind mounts and
propagation.  Cell root volumes can then be mounted by referring to them by
name, e.g.:

	ls /afs/grand.central.org/
	ls /afs/.grand.central.org/

  - A new driver "ocxl" for "Open Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface
    (OpenCAPI)" devices.
 
  - Support for new device tree properties on PowerVM to describe hotpluggable
    memory and devices.
 
  - Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 64-bit VDSO.
 
  - Freescale updates from Scott:
      "Contains fixes for CPM GPIO and an FSL PCI erratum workaround, plus a

Linus Torvalds ab486bc9a5 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Add a console_msg_format command line option:

     The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
     value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
     level>[timestamp] text" format.

     This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
     example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
     at hands.

 - Reduce the risk of softlockup:

     Pass the console owner in a busy loop.

     This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
     Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
     the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
     On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
     a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
     console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
     the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
     waiter.

     The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
     Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
     when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
     much to flush.

     There is increasing number of people having problems with
     printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
     solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
     direction.

 - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():

     This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
     to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
     This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
     above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.

 - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:

     It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
     descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
     transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.

     Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
     a special elf section and could be easily detected.

 - Remove printk_symbol() API:

     It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
     helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.

 - Remove redundant memsets:

     Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
     command line option.

Michael Ellerman 1d65b1c886 powerpc/cell: Remove axonram driver
The QS21/22 IBM Cell blades had a southbridge chip called Axon. This
could have DDR DIMMs attached to it, though they were not directly
usable as RAM, instead they could be used as some sort of buffer, if
applications were written specifically to use the block device
provided by the driver.

Although the driver supposedly had direct access support, it was
apparently never tested (see commit 91117a2024 ("axonram: Fix bug in
direct_access")).

These machines have not been available for over 5 years, and were
never widely in use. It seems highly unlikely anyone is using this
driver.

In general we're happy to leave old drivers in the tree, but because
DAX is involved this driver is caught up in the ongoing work in that
area, but none of the DAX folks are able to test it.

So remove the driver, if any one *is* using it, we'll be happy to put
it back.

Amir Goldstein f168f1098d ovl: add support for "nfs_export" configuration
Introduce the "nfs_export" config, module and mount options.

The NFS export feature depends on the "index" feature and enables two
implicit overlayfs features: "index_all" and "verify_lower".
The "index_all" feature creates an index on copy up of every file and
directory. The "verify_lower" feature uses the full index to detect
overlay filesystems inconsistencies on lookup, like redirect from
multiple upper dirs to the same lower dir.

NFS export can be enabled for non-upper mount with no index. However,
because lower layer redirects cannot be verified with the index, enabling
NFS export support on an overlay with no upper layer requires turning off
redirect follow (e.g. "redirect_dir=nofollow").

The full index may incur some overhead on mount time, especially when
verifying that lower directory file handles are not stale.

NFS export support, full index and consistency verification will be
implemented by following patches.

NeilBrown f1ee616214 VFS: don't keep disconnected dentries on d_anon
The original purpose of the per-superblock d_anon list was to
keep disconnected dentries in the cache between consecutive
requests to the NFS server.  Dentries can be disconnected if
a client holds a file open and repeatedly performs IO on it,
and if the server drops the dentry, whether due to memory
pressure, server restart, or "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches".

This purpose was thwarted by commit 75a6f82a0d ("freeing unlinked
file indefinitely delayed") which caused disconnected dentries
to be freed as soon as their refcount reached zero.

This means that, when a dentry being used by nfsd gets disconnected, a
new one needs to be allocated for every request (unless requests
overlap).  As the dentry has no name, no parent, and no children,
there is little of value to cache.  As small memory allocations are
typically fast (from per-cpu free lists) this likely has little cost.

This means that the original purpose of s_anon is no longer relevant:
there is no longer any need to keep disconnected dentries on a list so
they appear to be hashed.

However, s_anon now has a new use.  When you mount an NFS filesystem,
the dentry stored in s_root is just a placebo.  The "real" root dentry
is allocated using d_obtain_root() and so it kept on the s_anon list.
I don't know the reason for this, but suspect it related to NFSv4
where a mount of "server:/some/path" require NFS to look up the root
filehandle on the server, then walk down "/some" and "/path" to get
the filehandle to mount.

Whatever the reason, NFS depends on the s_anon list and on
shrink_dcache_for_umount() pruning all dentries on this list.  So we
cannot simply remove s_anon.

We could just leave the code unchanged, but apart from that being
potentially confusing, the (unfair) bit-spin-lock which protects
s_anon can become a bottle neck when lots of disconnected dentries are
being created.

So this patch renames s_anon to s_roots, and stops storing
disconnected dentries on the list.  Only dentries obtained with
d_obtain_root() are now stored on this list.  There are many fewer of
these (only NFS and NILFS2 use the call, and only during filesystem
mount) so contention on the bit-lock will not be a problem.

Possibly an alternate solution should be found for NFS and NILFS2, but
that would require understanding their needs first.

Miklos Szeredi 438c84c2f0 ovl: don't follow redirects if redirect_dir=off
Overlayfs is following redirects even when redirects are disabled. If this
is unintentional (probably the majority of cases) then this can be a
problem.  E.g. upper layer comes from untrusted USB drive, and attacker
crafts a redirect to enable read access to otherwise unreadable
directories.

If "redirect_dir=off", then turn off following as well as creation of
redirects.  If "redirect_dir=follow", then turn on following, but turn off
creation of redirects (which is what "redirect_dir=off" does now).

This is a backward incompatible change, so make it dependent on a config
option.

Roman Gushchin c643401218 proc, coredump: add CoreDumping flag to /proc/pid/status
Right now there is no convenient way to check if a process is being
coredumped at the moment.

It might be necessary to recognize such state to prevent killing the
process and getting a broken coredump.  Writing a large core might take
significant time, and the process is unresponsive during it, so it might
be killed by timeout, if another process is monitoring and
killing/restarting hanging tasks.

We're getting a significant number of corrupted coredump files on
machines in our fleet, just because processes are being killed by
timeout in the middle of the core writing process.

We do have a process health check, and some agent is responsible for
restarting processes which are not responding for health check requests.
Writing a large coredump to the disk can easily exceed the reasonable
timeout (especially on an overloaded machine).

This flag will allow the agent to distinguish processes which are being
coredumped, extend the timeout for them, and let them produce a full
coredump file.

To provide an ability to detect if a process is in the state of being
coredumped, we can expose a boolean CoreDumping flag in
/proc/pid/status.

Example:
$ cat core.sh
  #!/bin/sh

  echo "|/usr/bin/sleep 10" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
  sleep 1000 &
  PID=$!

  cat /proc/$PID/status | grep CoreDumping
  kill -ABRT $PID
  sleep 1
  cat /proc/$PID/status | grep CoreDumping

$ ./core.sh
  CoreDumping:	0
  CoreDumping:	1
