Yan, Zheng 4a7795d35e vfs: fix reference leak in d_prune_aliases()
In "d_prune_alias(): just lock the parent and call __dentry_kill()" the old
dget + d_drop + dput has been replaced with lock_parent + __dentry_kill;
unfortunately, dput() does more than just killing dentry - it also drops the
reference to parent.  New variant leaks that reference and needs dput(parent)
after killing the child off.

Mikulas Patocka 08d4f77222 dcache: fix kmemcheck warning in switch_names
This patch fixes kmemcheck warning in switch_names. The function
switch_names swaps inline names of two dentries. It swaps full arrays
d_iname, no matter how many bytes are really used by the strings. Reading
data beyond string ends results in kmemcheck warning.

We fix the bug by marking both arrays as fully initialized.

Al Viro 51486b900e fix inode leaks on d_splice_alias() failure exits
d_splice_alias() callers expect it to either stash the inode reference
into a new alias, or drop the inode reference.  That makes it possible
to just return d_splice_alias() result from ->lookup() instance, without
any extra housekeeping required.

Unfortunately, that should include the failure exits.  If d_splice_alias()
returns an error, it leaves the dentry it has been given negative and
thus it *must* drop the inode reference.  Easily fixed, but it goes way
back and will need backporting.

Al Viro 29355c3904 d_prune_alias(): just lock the parent and call __dentry_kill()
The only reason for games with ->d_prune() was __d_drop(), which
was needed only to force dput() into killing the sucker off.

Note that lock_parent() can be called under ->i_lock and won't
drop it, so dentry is safe from somebody managing to kill it
under us - it won't happen while we are holding ->i_lock.

__dentry_kill() is called only with ->d_lockref.count being 0
(here and when picked from shrink list) or 1 (dput() and dropping
the ancestors in shrink_dentry_list()), so it will never be called
twice - the first thing it's doing is making ->d_lockref.count
negative and once that happens, nothing will increment it.

Eric W. Biederman 8ed936b567 vfs: Lazily remove mounts on unlinked files and directories.
With the introduction of mount namespaces and bind mounts it became
possible to access files and directories that on some paths are mount
points but are not mount points on other paths.  It is very confusing
when rm -rf somedir returns -EBUSY simply because somedir is mounted
somewhere else.  With the addition of user namespaces allowing
unprivileged mounts this condition has gone from annoying to allowing
a DOS attack on other users in the system.

The possibility for mischief is removed by updating the vfs to support
rename, unlink and rmdir on a dentry that is a mountpoint and by
lazily unmounting mountpoints on deleted dentries.

In particular this change allows rename, unlink and rmdir system calls
on a dentry without a mountpoint in the current mount namespace to
succeed, and it allows rename, unlink, and rmdir performed on a
distributed filesystem to update the vfs cache even if when there is a
mount in some namespace on the original dentry.

There are two common patterns of maintaining mounts: Mounts on trusted
paths with the parent directory of the mount point and all ancestory
directories up to / owned by root and modifiable only by root
(i.e. /media/xxx, /dev, /dev/pts, /proc, /sys, /sys/fs/cgroup/{cpu,
cpuacct, ...}, /usr, /usr/local).  Mounts on unprivileged directories
maintained by fusermount.

In the case of mounts in trusted directories owned by root and
modifiable only by root the current parent directory permissions are
sufficient to ensure a mount point on a trusted path is not removed
or renamed by anyone other than root, even if there is a context
where the there are no mount points to prevent this.

In the case of mounts in directories owned by less privileged users
races with users modifying the path of a mount point are already a
danger.  fusermount already uses a combination of chdir,
/proc/<pid>/fd/NNN, and UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW to prevent these races.  The
removable of global rename, unlink, and rmdir protection really adds
nothing new to consider only a widening of the attack window, and
fusermount is already safe against unprivileged users modifying the
directory simultaneously.

In principle for perfect userspace programs returning -EBUSY for
unlink, rmdir, and rename of dentires that have mounts in the local
namespace is actually unnecessary.  Unfortunately not all userspace
programs are perfect so retaining -EBUSY for unlink, rmdir and rename
of dentries that have mounts in the current mount namespace plays an
important role of maintaining consistency with historical behavior and
making imperfect userspace applications hard to exploit.

v2: Remove spurious old_dentry.
v3: Optimized shrink_submounts_and_drop
    Removed unsued afs label
v4: Simplified the changes to check_submounts_and_drop
    Do not rename check_submounts_and_drop shrink_submounts_and_drop

    Rely on the parent inode mutex to make d_revalidate and d_invalidate
    an atomic unit.
v5: Refcount the mountpoint to detach in case of simultaneous
    renames.

Eric W. Biederman bafc9b754f vfs: More precise tests in d_invalidate
The current comments in d_invalidate about what and why it is doing
what it is doing are wildly off-base.  Which is not surprising as
the comments date back to last minute bug fix of the 2.2 kernel.

The big fat lie of a comment said: If it's a directory, we can't drop
it for fear of somebody re-populating it with children (even though
dropping it would make it unreachable from that root, we still might
repopulate it if it was a working directory or similar).

[AV] What we really need to avoid is multiple dentry aliases of the
same directory inode; on all filesystems that have ->d_revalidate()
we either declare all positive dentries always valid (and thus never
fed to d_invalidate()) or use d_materialise_unique() and/or d_splice_alias(),
which take care of alias prevention.

The current rules are:
- To prevent mount point leaks dentries that are mount points or that
  have childrent that are mount points may not be be unhashed.
- All dentries may be unhashed.
- Directories may be rehashed with d_materialise_unique

check_submounts_and_drop implements this already for well maintained
remote filesystems so implement the current rules in d_invalidate
by just calling check_submounts_and_drop.

The one difference between d_invalidate and check_submounts_and_drop
is that d_invalidate must respect it when a d_revalidate method has
earlier called d_drop so preserve the d_unhashed check in
d_invalidate.

Al Viro 8d85b4845a Allow sharing external names after __d_move()
* external dentry names get a small structure prepended to them
(struct external_name).
* it contains an atomic refcount, matching the number of struct dentry
instances that have ->d_name.name pointing to that external name.  The
first thing free_dentry() does is decrementing refcount of external name,
so the instances that are between the call of free_dentry() and
RCU-delayed actual freeing do not contribute.
* __d_move(x, y, false) makes the name of x equal to the name of y,
external or not.  If y has an external name, extra reference is grabbed
and put into x->d_name.name.  If x used to have an external name, the
reference to the old name is dropped and, should it reach zero, freeing
is scheduled via kfree_rcu().
* free_dentry() in dentry with external name decrements the refcount of
that name and, should it reach zero, does RCU-delayed call that will
free both the dentry and external name.  Otherwise it does what it
used to do, except that __d_free() doesn't even look at ->d_name.name;
it simply frees the dentry.

All non-RCU accesses to dentry external name are safe wrt freeing since they
all should happen before free_dentry() is called.  RCU accesses might run
into a dentry seen by free_dentry() or into an old name that got already
dropped by __d_move(); however, in both cases dentry must have been
alive and refer to that name at some point after we'd done rcu_read_lock(),
which means that any freeing must be still pending.

Al Viro 6d13f69444 missing data dependency barrier in prepend_name()
AFAICS, prepend_name() is broken on SMP alpha.  Disclaimer: I don't have
SMP alpha boxen to reproduce it on.  However, it really looks like the race
is real.

CPU1: d_path() on /mnt/ramfs/<255-character>/foo
CPU2: mv /mnt/ramfs/<255-character> /mnt/ramfs/<63-character>

CPU2 does d_alloc(), which allocates an external name, stores the name there
including terminating NUL, does smp_wmb() and stores its address in
dentry->d_name.name.  It proceeds to d_add(dentry, NULL) and d_move()
old dentry over to that.  ->d_name.name value ends up in that dentry.

In the meanwhile, CPU1 gets to prepend_name() for that dentry.  It fetches
->d_name.name and ->d_name.len; the former ends up pointing to new name
(64-byte kmalloc'ed array), the latter - 255 (length of the old name).
Nothing to force the ordering there, and normally that would be OK, since we'd
run into the terminating NUL and stop.  Except that it's alpha, and we'd need
a data dependency barrier to guarantee that we see that store of NUL
__d_alloc() has done.  In a similar situation dentry_cmp() would survive; it
does explicit smp_read_barrier_depends() after fetching ->d_name.name.
prepend_name() doesn't and it risks walking past the end of kmalloc'ed object
and possibly oops due to taking a page fault in kernel mode.

Mikhail Efremov d2fa4a8476 vfs: Don't exchange "short" filenames unconditionally.
Only exchange source and destination filenames
if flags contain RENAME_EXCHANGE.
In case if executable file was running and replaced by
other file /proc/PID/exe should still show correct file name,
not the old name of the file by which it was replaced.

The scenario when this bug manifests itself was like this:
* ALT Linux uses rpm and start-stop-daemon;
* during a package upgrade rpm creates a temporary file
  for an executable to rename it upon successful unpacking;
* start-stop-daemon is run subsequently and it obtains
  the (nonexistant) temporary filename via /proc/PID/exe
  thus failing to identify the running process.

Note that "long" filenames (> DNAiME_INLINE_LEN) are still
exchanged without RENAME_EXCHANGE and this behaviour exists
long enough (should be fixed too apparently).
So this patch is just an interim workaround that restores
behavior for "short" names as it was before changes
introduced by commit da1ce0670c ("vfs: add cross-rename").

See https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/7/6 for details.

AV: the comments about being more careful with ->d_name.hash
than with ->d_name.name are from back in 2.3.40s; they
became obsolete by 2.3.60s, when we started to unhash the
target instead of swapping hash chain positions followed
by d_delete() as we used to do when dcache was first
introduced.

Linus Torvalds 99d263d4c5 vfs: fix bad hashing of dentries
Josef Bacik found a performance regression between 3.2 and 3.10 and
narrowed it down to commit bfcfaa77bd ("vfs: use 'unsigned long'
accesses for dcache name comparison and hashing"). He reports:

 "The test case is essentially

      for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++)
              mkdir("a$i");

  On xfs on a fio card this goes at about 20k dir/sec with 3.2, and 12k
  dir/sec with 3.10.  This is because we spend waaaaay more time in
  __d_lookup on 3.10 than in 3.2.

  The new hashing function for strings is suboptimal for <
  sizeof(unsigned long) string names (and hell even > sizeof(unsigned
  long) string names that I've tested).  I broke out the old hashing
  function and the new one into a userspace helper to get real numbers
  and this is what I'm getting:

      Old hash table had 1000000 entries, 0 dupes, 0 max dupes
      New hash table had 12628 entries, 987372 dupes, 900 max dupes
      We had 11400 buckets with a p50 of 30 dupes, p90 of 240 dupes, p99 of 567 dupes for the new hash

  My test does the hash, and then does the d_hash into a integer pointer
  array the same size as the dentry hash table on my system, and then
  just increments the value at the address we got to see how many
  entries we overlap with.

  As you can see the old hash function ended up with all 1 million
  entries in their own bucket, whereas the new one they are only
  distributed among ~12.5k buckets, which is why we're using so much
  more CPU in __d_lookup".

The reason for this hash regression is two-fold:

 - On 64-bit architectures the down-mixing of the original 64-bit
   word-at-a-time hash into the final 32-bit hash value is very
   simplistic and suboptimal, and just adds the two 32-bit parts
   together.

   In particular, because there is no bit shuffling and the mixing
   boundary is also a byte boundary, similar character patterns in the
   low and high word easily end up just canceling each other out.

 - the old byte-at-a-time hash mixed each byte into the final hash as it
   hashed the path component name, resulting in the low bits of the hash
   generally being a good source of hash data.  That is not true for the
   word-at-a-time case, and the hash data is distributed among all the
   bits.

The fix is the same in both cases: do a better job of mixing the bits up
and using as much of the hash data as possible.  We already have the
"hash_32|64()" functions to do that.

J. Bruce Fields 1a0a397e41 dcache: d_obtain_alias callers don't all want DISCONNECTED
There are a few d_obtain_alias callers that are using it to get the
root of a filesystem which may already have an alias somewhere else.

This is not the same as the filehandle-lookup case, and none of them
actually need DCACHE_DISCONNECTED set.

It isn't really a serious problem, but it would really be clearer if we
reserved DCACHE_DISCONNECTED for those cases where it's actually needed.

In the btrfs case this was causing a spurious printk from
nfsd/nfsfh.c:fh_verify when it found an unexpected DCACHE_DISCONNECTED
dentry.  Josef worked around this by unsetting DCACHE_DISCONNECTED
manually in 3a0dfa6a12 "Btrfs: unset DCACHE_DISCONNECTED when mounting

J. Bruce Fields da093a9b76 dcache: d_splice_alias should ignore DCACHE_DISCONNECTED
Any IS_ROOT() alias should be safe to use; there's nothing special about
DCACHE_DISCONNECTED dentries.

Note that this is in fact useful for filesystems such as btrfs which can
legimately encounter a directory with a preexisting IS_ROOT alias on a
lookup that crosses into a subvolume.  (Those aliases are currently
marked DCACHE_DISCONNECTED--but not really for any good reason, and
we'll change that soon.)

J. Bruce Fields 908790fa3b dcache: d_splice_alias mustn't create directory aliases
Currently if d_splice_alias finds a directory with an alias that is not
IS_ROOT or not DCACHE_DISCONNECTED, it creates a duplicate directory.

Duplicate directory dentries are unacceptable; it is better just to
error out.

(In the case of a local filesystem the most likely case is filesystem
corruption: for example, perhaps two directories point to the same child
directory, and the other parent has already been found and cached.)

Note that distributed filesystems may encounter this case in normal
operation if a remote host moves a directory to a location different
from the one we last cached in the dcache.  For that reason, such
filesystems should instead use d_materialise_unique, which tries to move
the old directory alias to the right place instead of erroring out.

J. Bruce Fields 75a2352d01 dcache: close d_move race in d_splice_alias
d_splice_alias will d_move an IS_ROOT() directory dentry into place if
one exists.  This should be safe as long as the dentry remains IS_ROOT,
but I can't see what guarantees that: once we drop the i_lock all we
hold here is the i_mutex on an unrelated parent directory.

Instead copy the logic of d_materialise_unique.

Al Viro c2338f2dc7 lock_parent: don't step on stale ->d_parent of all-but-freed one
Dentry that had been through (or into) __dentry_kill() might be seen
by shrink_dentry_list(); that's normal, it'll be taken off the shrink
list and freed if __dentry_kill() has already finished.  The problem
is, its ->d_parent might be pointing to already freed dentry, so
lock_parent() needs to be careful.

We need to check that dentry hasn't already gone into __dentry_kill()
*and* grab rcu_read_lock() before dropping ->d_lock - the latter makes
sure that whatever we see in ->d_parent after dropping ->d_lock it
won't be freed until we drop rcu_read_lock().

Linus Torvalds 9f12600fe4 dcache: add missing lockdep annotation
lock_parent() very much on purpose does nested locking of dentries, and
is careful to maintain the right order (lock parent first).  But because
it didn't annotate the nested locking order, lockdep thought it might be
a deadlock on d_lock, and complained.

Add the proper annotation for the inner locking of the child dentry to
make lockdep happy.

Introduced by commit 046b961b45 ("shrink_dentry_list(): take parent's
->d_lock earlier").

Al Viro b2b80195d8 dealing with the rest of shrink_dentry_list() livelock
We have the same problem with ->d_lock order in the inner loop, where
we are dropping references to ancestors.  Same solution, basically -
instead of using dentry_kill() we use lock_parent() (introduced in the
previous commit) to get that lock in a safe way, recheck ->d_count
(in case if lock_parent() has ended up dropping and retaking ->d_lock
and somebody managed to grab a reference during that window), trylock
the inode->i_lock and use __dentry_kill() to do the rest.

Al Viro 046b961b45 shrink_dentry_list(): take parent's ->d_lock earlier
The cause of livelocks there is that we are taking ->d_lock on
dentry and its parent in the wrong order, forcing us to use
trylock on the parent's one.  d_walk() takes them in the right
order, and unfortunately it's not hard to create a situation
when shrink_dentry_list() can't make progress since trylock
keeps failing, and shrink_dcache_parent() or check_submounts_and_drop()
keeps calling d_walk() disrupting the very shrink_dentry_list() it's
waiting for.

Solution is straightforward - if that trylock fails, let's unlock
the dentry itself and take locks in the right order.  We need to
stabilize ->d_parent without holding ->d_lock, but that's doable
using RCU.  And we'd better do that in the very beginning of the
loop in shrink_dentry_list(), since the checks on refcount, etc.
would need to be redone anyway.

That deals with a half of the problem - killing dentries on the
shrink list itself.  Another one (dropping their parents) is
in the next commit.

locking parent is interesting - it would be easy to do rcu_read_lock(),
lock whatever we think is a parent, lock dentry itself and check
if the parent is still the right one.  Except that we need to check
that *before* locking the dentry, or we are risking taking ->d_lock
out of order.  Fortunately, once the D1 is locked, we can check if
D2->d_parent is equal to D1 without the need to lock D2; D2->d_parent
can start or stop pointing to D1 only under D1->d_lock, so taking
D1->d_lock is enough.  In other words, the right solution is
rcu_read_lock/lock what looks like parent right now/check if it's
still our parent/rcu_read_unlock/lock the child.

Al Viro 64fd72e0a4 lift the "already marked killed" case into shrink_dentry_list()
It can happen only when dentry_kill() is called with unlock_on_failure
equal to 0 - other callers had dentry pinned until the moment they've
got ->d_lock and DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED is set only after lockref_mark_dead().

IOW, only one of three call sites of dentry_kill() might end up reaching
that code.  Just move it there.
