Impure directories are ones which contain objects with origins (i.e. those
that have been copied up). These are relevant to readdir operation only
because of the d_ino field, no other transformation is necessary. Also a
directory can become impure between two getdents(2) calls.
This patch creates a cache for impure directories. Unlike the cache for
merged directories, this one only contains entries with origin and is not
refcounted but has a its lifetime tied to that of the dentry.
Similarly to the merged cache, the impure cache is invalidated based on a
version number. This version number is incremented when an entry with
origin is added or removed from the directory.
If the cache is empty, then the impure xattr is removed from the directory.
This patch also fixes up handling of d_ino for the ".." entry if the parent
directory is merged.

inode_doinit_with_dentry() in SELinux wants to read the upper inode's xattr
to get security label, and ovl_xattr_get() calls ovl_dentry_real(), which
depends on dentry->d_inode, but d_inode is null and not initialized yet at
this point resulting in an Oops.
Fix by getting the upperdentry info from the inode directly in this case.

With inodes index enabled, an overlay inode nlink counts the union of upper
and non-covered lower hardlinks. During the lifetime of a non-pure upper
inode, the following nlink modifying operations can happen:
1. Lower hardlink copy up
2. Upper hardlink created, unlinked or renamed over
3. Lower hardlink whiteout or renamed over
For the first, copy up case, the union nlink does not change, whether the
operation succeeds or fails, but the upper inode nlink may change.
Therefore, before copy up, we store the union nlink value relative to the
lower inode nlink in the index inode xattr trusted.overlay.nlink.
For the second, upper hardlink case, the union nlink should be incremented
or decremented IFF the operation succeeds, aligned with nlink change of the
upper inode. Therefore, before link/unlink/rename, we store the union nlink
value relative to the upper inode nlink in the index inode.
For the last, lower cover up case, we simplify things by preceding the
whiteout or cover up with copy up. This makes sure that there is an index
upper inode where the nlink xattr can be stored before the copied up upper
entry is unlink.
Return the overlay inode nlinks for indexed upper inodes on stat(2).

Bad index entries are entries whose name does not match the

Bad index entries could be a result of a system power off in

Stale index entries are entries whose origin file handle is
stale. Stale index entries could be a result of copying layers

When inodes index feature is enabled, lookup in indexdir for the index
entry of lower real inode or copy up origin inode. The index entry name
is the hex representation of the lower inode file handle.
If the index dentry in negative, then either no lower aliases have been
copied up yet, or aliases have been copied up in older kernels and are
not indexed.
If the index dentry for a copy up origin inode is positive, but points
to an inode different than the upper inode, then either the upper inode
has been copied up and not indexed or it was indexed, but since then
index dir was cleared. Either way, that index cannot be used to indentify
the overlay inode.
If a positive dentry that matches the upper inode was found, then it is
safe to use the copy up origin st_ino for upper hardlinks, because all
indexed upper hardlinks are represented by the same overlay inode as the
copy up origin.
Set the INDEX type flag on an indexed upper dentry. A non-upper dentry
may also have a positive index from copy up of another lower hardlink.
This situation will be handled by following patches.

We already mark a non-merge dir "impure" when moving a non-pure child

Mark also a merge dir "impure" when moving a non-pure child entry inside

Store the lower inode file handle in upper inode extended attribute
overlay.origin on copy up to use it later for these cases. Store the lower

FWIW, there's a bit of abuse of struct kstat in overlayfs object
creation paths - for one thing, it ends up with a very small subset
of struct kstat (mode + rdev), for another it also needs link in
case of symlinks and ends up passing it separately.
IMO it would be better to introduce a separate object for that.
In principle, we might even lift that thing into general API and switch

Current code returns EXDEV when a directory would need to be copied up to
move. We could copy up the directory tree in this case, but there's
another, simpler solution: point to old lower directory from moved upper
directory.
This is achieved with a "trusted.overlay.redirect" xattr storing the path
relative to the root of the overlay. After such attribute has been set,
the directory can be moved without further actions required.
This is a backward incompatible feature, old kernels won't be able to
correctly mount an overlay containing redirected directories.

If a directory has the "trusted.overlay.redirect" xattr, it means that the
value of the xattr should be used to find the underlying directory on the
next lower layer.
The redirect may be relative or absolute. Absolute redirects begin with a
slash.
A relative redirect means: instead of the current dentry's name use the
value of the redirect to find the directory in the next lower
layer. Relative redirects must not contain a slash.
An absolute redirect means: look up the directory relative to the root of
the overlay using the value of the redirect in the next lower layer.
Redirects work on lower layers as well.

Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
Currently ovl_lookup() checks existence of lower file even if there's a
non-directory on upper (which is always opaque). This is done so that
remove can decide whether a whiteout is needed or not.
It would be better to defer this check to unlink, since most of the time
the gathered information about opaqueness will be unused.
This adds a helper ovl_lower_positive() that checks if there's anything on
the lower layer(s).
The following patches also introduce changes to how the "opaque" attribute
is updated on directories: this attribute is added when the directory is
creted or moved over a whiteout or object covering something on the lower
layer. However following changes will allow the attribute to remain on the
directory after being moved, even if the new location doesn't cover
anything. Because of this, we need to check lower layers even for opaque
directories, so that whiteout is only created when necessary.
This function will later be also used to decide about marking a directory
opaque, so deal with negative dentries as well. When dealing with
negative, it's enough to check for being a whiteout
If the dentry is positive but not upper then it also obviously needs
whiteout/opaque.

When mounting overlayfs it needs a clean "work" directory under the
supplied workdir.
Previously the mount code removed this directory if it already existed and
created a new one. If the removal failed (e.g. directory was not empty)
then it fell back to a read-only mount not using the workdir.
While this has never been reported, it is possible to get a non-empty
"work" dir from a previous mount of overlayfs in case of crash in the
middle of an operation using the work directory.
In this case the left over state should be discarded and the overlay
filesystem will be consistent, guaranteed by the atomicity of operations on
moving to/from the workdir to the upper layer.
This patch implements cleaning out any files left in workdir. It is
implemented using real recursion for simplicity, but the depth is limited
to 2, because the worst case is that of a directory containing whiteouts
under "work".

When a copy up of a directory occurs which has the opaque xattr set, the
xattr remains in the upper directory. The immediate behavior with overlayfs
is that the upper directory is not treated as opaque, however after a
remount the opaque flag is used and upper directory is treated as opaque.
This causes files created in the lower layer to be hidden when using
multiple lower directories.
Fix by not copying up the opaque flag.
To reproduce:
----8<---------8<---------8<---------8<---------8<---------8<----
mkdir -p l/d/s u v w mnt

well.
2) Setting ACL can fail for various reasons. We do not need to copy up in

Inode attributes are copied up to overlay inode (uid, gid, mode, atime,
mtime, ctime) so generic code using these fields works correcty. If a hard
link is created in overlayfs separate inodes are allocated for each link.
If chmod/chown/etc. is performed on one of the links then the inode
belonging to the other ones won't be updated.
This patch attempts to fix this by sharing inodes for hard links.
Use inode hash (with real inode pointer as a key) to make sure overlay
inodes are shared for hard links on upper. Hard links on lower are still
split (which is not user observable until the copy-up happens, see
Documentation/filesystems/overlayfs.txt under "Non-standard behavior").
The inode is only inserted in the hash if it is non-directoy and upper.
