66ba93c0d7 fanotify: don't set FAN_ONDIR implicitly on a marks ignored mask
Currently FAN_ONDIR is always set on a mark's ignored mask when the
event mask is extended without FAN_MARK_ONDIR being set.  This may
result in events for directories being ignored unexpectedly for call
sequences like

  fanotify_mark(fd, FAN_MARK_ADD, FAN_OPEN | FAN_ONDIR , AT_FDCWD, "dir");
  fanotify_mark(fd, FAN_MARK_ADD, FAN_CLOSE, AT_FDCWD, "dir");

Also FAN_MARK_ONDIR is only honored when adding events to a mark's mask,
but not for event removal.  Fix both issues by not setting FAN_ONDIR
implicitly on the ignore mask any more.  Instead treat FAN_ONDIR as any
other event flag and require FAN_MARK_ONDIR to be set by the user for
both event mask and ignore mask.  Furthermore take FAN_MARK_ONDIR into
account when set for event removal.

a118449a77 fanotify: only destroy mark when both mask and ignored_mask are cleared
In fanotify_mark_remove_from_mask() a mark is destroyed if only one of
both bitmasks (mask or ignored_mask) of a mark is cleared.  However the
other mask may still be set and contain information that should not be
lost.  So only destroy a mark if both masks are cleared.

536ebe9ca9 sched, fanotify: Deal with nested sleeps
As per e23738a730 ("sched, inotify: Deal with nested sleeps").

fanotify_read is a wait loop with sleeps in. Wait loops rely on
task_struct::state and sleeps do too, since that's the only means of
actually sleeping. Therefore the nested sleeps destroy the wait loop
state and the wait loop breaks the sleep functions that assume
TASK_RUNNING (mutex_lock).

Fix this by using the new woken_wake_function and wait_woken() stuff,
which registers wakeups in wait and thereby allows shrinking the
task_state::state changes to the actual sleep part.

0b37e097a6 fanotify: enable close-on-exec on events' fd when requested in fanotify_init()
According to commit 80af258867 ("fanotify: groups can specify their
f_flags for new fd"), file descriptors created as part of file access
notification events inherit flags from the event_f_flags argument passed
to syscall fanotify_init(2)[1].

Unfortunately O_CLOEXEC is currently silently ignored.

Indeed, event_f_flags are only given to dentry_open(), which only seems to
care about O_ACCMODE and O_PATH in do_dentry_open(), O_DIRECT in
open_check_o_direct() and O_LARGEFILE in generic_file_open().

It's a pity, since, according to some lookup on various search engines and
http://codesearch.debian.net/, there's already some userspace code which
use O_CLOEXEC:

- in systemd's readahead[2]:

    fanotify_fd = fanotify_init(FAN_CLOEXEC|FAN_NONBLOCK, O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE|O_CLOEXEC|O_NOATIME);

- in clsync[3]:

    #define FANOTIFY_EVFLAGS (O_LARGEFILE|O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC)

    int fanotify_d = fanotify_init(FANOTIFY_FLAGS, FANOTIFY_EVFLAGS);

- in examples [4] from "Filesystem monitoring in the Linux
  kernel" article[5] by Aleksander Morgado:

    if ((fanotify_fd = fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC,
                                      O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC | O_LARGEFILE)) < 0)

Additionally, since commit 48149e9d3a ("fanotify: check file flags
passed in fanotify_init").  having O_CLOEXEC as part of fanotify_init()
second argument is expressly allowed.

So it seems expected to set close-on-exec flag on the file descriptors if
userspace is allowed to request it with O_CLOEXEC.

But Andrew Morton raised[6] the concern that enabling now close-on-exec
might break existing applications which ask for O_CLOEXEC but expect the
file descriptor to be inherited across exec().

In the other hand, as reported by Mihai Dontu[7] close-on-exec on the file
descriptor returned as part of file access notify can break applications
due to deadlock.  So close-on-exec is needed for most applications.

More, applications asking for close-on-exec are likely expecting it to be
enabled, relying on O_CLOEXEC being effective.  If not, it might weaken
their security, as noted by Jan Kara[8].

So this patch replaces call to macro get_unused_fd() by a call to function
get_unused_fd_flags() with event_f_flags value as argument.  This way
O_CLOEXEC flag in the second argument of fanotify_init(2) syscall is
interpreted and close-on-exec get enabled when requested.

5838d4442b fanotify: fix double free of pending permission events
Commit 8581679424 ("fanotify: Fix use after free for permission
events") introduced a double free issue for permission events which are
pending in group's notification queue while group is being destroyed.
These events are freed from fanotify_handle_event() but they are not
removed from groups notification queue and thus they get freed again
from fsnotify_flush_notify().

Fix the problem by removing permission events from notification queue
before freeing them if we skip processing access response.  Also expand
comments in fanotify_release() to explain group shutdown in detail.

48149e9d3a fanotify: check file flags passed in fanotify_init
Without this patch fanotify_init does not validate the value passed in
event_f_flags.

When a fanotify event is read from the fanotify file descriptor a new
file descriptor is created where file.f_flags = event_f_flags.

Internal and external open flags are stored together in field f_flags of
struct file.  Hence, an application might create file descriptors with
internal flags like FMODE_EXEC, FMODE_NOCMTIME set.

Jan Kara and Eric Paris both aggreed that this is a bug and the value of
event_f_flags should be checked:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/522
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/539

This updated patch version considers the comments by Michael Kerrisk in
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/4/10

With the patch the value of event_f_flags is checked.
When specifying an invalid value error EINVAL is returned.

Internal flags are disallowed.

File creation flags are disallowed:
O_CREAT, O_DIRECTORY, O_EXCL, O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_TRUNC, and O_TTY_INIT.

Flags which do not make sense with fanotify are disallowed:
__O_TMPFILE, O_PATH, FASYNC, and O_DIRECT.

This leaves us with the following allowed values:

O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR are basic functionality. The are stored in the
bits given by O_ACCMODE.

O_APPEND is working as expected. The value might be useful in a logging
application which appends the current status each time the log is opened.

O_LARGEFILE is needed for files exceeding 4GB on 32bit systems.

O_NONBLOCK may be useful when monitoring slow devices like tapes.

O_NDELAY is equal to O_NONBLOCK except for platform parisc.
To avoid code breaking on parisc either both flags should be
allowed or none. The patch allows both.

__O_SYNC and O_DSYNC may be used to avoid data loss on power disruption.

O_NOATIME may be useful to reduce disk activity.

O_CLOEXEC may be useful, if separate processes shall be used to scan files.

Once this patch is accepted, the fanotify_init.2 manpage has to be updated.

0a8dd2db57 fanotify: FAN_MARK_FLUSH: avoid having to provide a fake/invalid fd and path
Originally from Tvrtko Ursulin (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/12/112)

Avoid having to provide a fake/invalid fd and path when flushing marks

Currently for a group to flush marks it has set it needs to provide a
fake or invalid (but resolvable) file descriptor and path when calling
fanotify_mark.  This patch pulls the flush handling a bit up so file
descriptor and path are completely ignored when flushing.

I reworked the patch to be applicable again (the signature of
fanotify_mark has changed since Tvrtko's work).

1e2ee49f7f fanotify: fix -EOVERFLOW with large files on 64-bit
On 64-bit systems, O_LARGEFILE is automatically added to flags inside
the open() syscall (also openat(), blkdev_open(), etc).  Userspace
therefore defines O_LARGEFILE to be 0 - you can use it, but it's a
no-op.  Everything should be O_LARGEFILE by default.

But: when fanotify does create_fd() it uses dentry_open(), which skips
all that.  And userspace can't set O_LARGEFILE in fanotify_init()
because it's defined to 0.  So if fanotify gets an event regarding a
large file, the read() will just fail with -EOVERFLOW.

This patch adds O_LARGEFILE to fanotify_init()'s event_f_flags on 64-bit
systems, using the same test as open()/openat()/etc.

d507816b58 fanotify: move unrelated handling from copy_event_to_user()
Move code moving event structure to access_list from copy_event_to_user()
to fanotify_read() where it is more logical (so that we can immediately
see in the main loop that we either move the event to a different list
or free it).  Also move special error handling for permission events
from copy_event_to_user() to the main loop to have it in one place with
error handling for normal events.  This makes copy_event_to_user()
really only copy the event to user without any side effects.

f083441ba8 fanotify: use fanotify event structure for permission response processing
Currently, fanotify creates new structure to track the fact that
permission event has been reported to userspace and someone is waiting
for a response to it.  As event structures are now completely in the
hands of each notification framework, we can use the event structure for
this tracking instead of allocating a new structure.

Since this makes the event structures for normal events and permission
events even more different and the structures have different lifetime
rules, we split them into two separate structures (where permission
event structure contains the structure for a normal event).  This makes
normal events 8 bytes smaller and the code a tad bit cleaner.

"fsnotify: do not share events between notification groups") broke
sending of cookies with inotify events. We didn't propagate the value
passed to fsnotify() properly and passed 4 uninitialized bytes to
userspace instead (so it is also an information leak). Sadly I didn't
notice this during my testing because inotify cookies aren't used very
much and LTP inotify tests ignore them.

Fix the problem by passing the cookie value properly.

We also disallow merging of permission event with any other event so
that we know the permission event which we just created is the one on
which we should wait for permission response.

83c4c4b0a3 fsnotify: remove .should_send_event callback
After removing event structure creation from the generic layer there is
no reason for separate .should_send_event and .handle_event callbacks.
So just remove the first one.

7053aee26a fsnotify: do not share events between notification groups
Currently fsnotify framework creates one event structure for each
notification event and links this event into all interested notification
groups.  This is done so that we save memory when several notification
groups are interested in the event.  However the need for event
structure shared between inotify & fanotify bloats the event structure
so the result is often higher memory consumption.

Another problem is that fsnotify framework keeps path references with
outstanding events so that fanotify can return open file descriptors
with its events.  This has the undesirable effect that filesystem cannot
be unmounted while there are outstanding events - a regression for
inotify compared to a situation before it was converted to fsnotify
framework.  For fanotify this problem is hard to avoid and users of
fanotify should kind of expect this behavior when they ask for file
descriptors from notified files.

This patch changes fsnotify and its users to create separate event
structure for each group.  This allows for much simpler code (~400 lines
removed by this patch) and also smaller event structures.  For example
on 64-bit system original struct fsnotify_event consumes 120 bytes, plus
additional space for file name, additional 24 bytes for second and each
subsequent group linking the event, and additional 32 bytes for each
inotify group for private data.  After the conversion inotify event
consumes 48 bytes plus space for file name which is considerably less
memory unless file names are long and there are several groups
interested in the events (both of which are uncommon).  Fanotify event
fits in 56 bytes after the conversion (fanotify doesn't care about file
names so its events don't have to have it allocated).  A win unless
there are four or more fanotify groups interested in the event.

The conversion also solves the problem with unmount when only inotify is
used as we don't have to grab path references for inotify events.

7b18527c4a fanotify: fix races when adding/removing marks
For both adding an event to an existing mark and destroying a mark we
first have to find it via fsnotify_find_[inode|vfsmount]_mark().  But
getting the mark and adding an event (or destroying it) is not done
atomically.  This opens a race where a thread is about to destroy a mark
while another thread still finds the same mark and adds an event to its
mask although it will be destroyed.

Another race exists concerning the excess of a groups number of marks
limit: When a mark is added the number of group marks is checked against
the max number of marks per group and increased afterwards.  Since check
and increment is also not done atomically, this may result in 2 or more
processes passing the check at the same time and increasing the number
of group marks above the allowed limit.

With this patch both races are avoided by doing the concerning
operations with the groups mark mutex locked.

 "This pull mostly is about locking changes in the fsnotify system.  By

  This also restores signal driven I/O for inotify, which has been

Ugh.  I *hate* the timing of this.  It was rebased after the merge

03a1cec1f1 fanotify: dont merge permission events
Boyd Yang reported a problem for the case that multiple threads of the same
thread group are waiting for a reponse for a permission event.
In this case it is possible that some of the threads are never woken up, even
if the response for the event has been received
(see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131822913806350&w=2).

The reason is that we are currently merging permission events if they belong to
the same thread group. But we are not prepared to wake up more than one waiter
for each event. We do

wait_event(group->fanotify_data.access_waitq, event->response ||
			atomic_read(&group->fanotify_data.bypass_perm));
and after that
  event->response = 0;

which is the reason that even if we woke up all waiters for the same event
some of them may see event->response being already set 0 again, then go back to
sleep and block forever.

With this patch we avoid that more than one thread is waiting for a response
by not merging permission events for the same thread group any more.

09e5f14e57 fanotify: on group destroy allow all waiters to bypass permission check
When fanotify_release() is called, there may still be processes waiting for
access permission. Currently only processes for which an event has already been
queued into the groups access list will be woken up.  Processes for which no
event has been queued will continue to sleep and thus cause a deadlock when
fsnotify_put_group() is called.
Furthermore there is a race allowing further processes to be waiting on the
access wait queue after wake_up (if they arrive before clear_marks_by_group()
is called).
This patch corrects this by setting a flag to inform processes that the group
is about to be destroyed and thus not to wait for access permission.

[additional changelog from eparis]
Lets think about the 4 relevant code paths from the PoV of the
'operator' 'listener' 'responder' and 'closer'.  Where operator is the
process doing an action (like open/read) which could require permission.
Listener is the task (or in this case thread) slated with reading from
the fanotify file descriptor.  The 'responder' is the thread responsible
for responding to access requests.  'Closer' is the thread attempting to
close the fanotify file descriptor.

The 'operator' is going to end up in:
fanotify_handle_event()
  get_response_from_access()
    (THIS BLOCKS WAITING ON USERSPACE)

The 'listener' interesting code path
fanotify_read()
  copy_event_to_user()
    prepare_for_access_response()
      (THIS CREATES AN fanotify_response_event)

The 'responder' code path:
fanotify_write()
  process_access_response()
    (REMOVE A fanotify_response_event, SET RESPONSE, WAKE UP 'operator')

The 'closer':
fanotify_release()
  (SUPPOSED TO CLEAN UP THE REST OF THIS MESS)

What we have today is that in the closer we remove all of the
fanotify_response_events and set a bit so no more response events are
ever created in prepare_for_access_response().

The bug is that we never wake all of the operators up and tell them to
move along.  You fix that in fanotify_get_response_from_access().  You
also fix other operators which haven't gotten there yet.  So I agree
that's a good fix.

fa218ab98c fanotify: correct broken ref counting in case adding a mark failed
If adding a mount or inode mark failed fanotify_free_mark() is called explicitly.
But at this time the mark has already been put into the destroy list of the
fsnotify_mark kernel thread. If the thread is too slow it will try to decrease
the reference of a mark, that has already been freed by fanotify_free_mark().
(If its fast enough it will only decrease the marks ref counter from 2 to 1 - note
that the counter has been increased to 2 in add_mark() - which has practically no
effect.)

This patch fixes the ref counting by not calling free_mark() explicitly, but
decreasing the ref counter and rely on the fsnotify_mark thread to cleanup in
case adding the mark has failed.

8fcd65280a fanotify: ignore events on directories unless specifically requested
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)

ac7e22dcfa fanotify: allow userspace to override max marks
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.

5322a59f14 fanotify: ignore fanotify ignore marks if open writers
fanotify will clear ignore marks if a task changes the contents of an
inode.  The problem is with the races around when userspace finishes
checking a file and when that result is actually attached to the inode.
This race was described as such:

Consider the following scenario with hostile processes A and B, and
victim process C:
1. Process A opens new file for writing. File check request is generated.
2. File check is performed in userspace. Check result is "file has no malware".
3. The "permit" response is delivered to kernel space.
4. File ignored mark set.
5. Process A writes dummy bytes to the file. File ignored flags are cleared.
6. Process B opens the same file for reading. File check request is generated.
7. File check is performed in userspace. Check result is "file has no malware".
8. Process A writes malware bytes to the file. There is no cached response yet.
9. The "permit" response is delivered to kernel space and is cached in fanotify.
10. File ignored mark set.
11. Now any process C will be permitted to open the malware file.
There is a race between steps 8 and 10

While fanotify makes no strong guarantees about systems with hostile
processes there is no reason we cannot harden against this race.  We do
that by simply ignoring any ignore marks if the inode has open writers (aka
i_writecount > 0).  (We actually do not ignore ignore marks if the
FAN_MARK_SURV_MODIFY flag is set)

4231a23530 fanotify: implement fanotify listener ordering
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.

6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

2eebf582c9 fanotify: flush outstanding perm requests on group destroy
When an fanotify listener is closing it may cause a deadlock between the
listener and the original task doing an fs operation.  If the original task
is waiting for a permissions response it will be holding the srcu lock.  The
listener cannot clean up and exit until after that srcu lock is syncronized.
Thus deadlock.  The fix introduced here is to stop accepting new permissions
events when a listener is shutting down and to grant permission for all
outstanding events.  Thus the original task will eventually release the srcu
lock and the listener can complete shutdown.

cb2d429faf fsnotify: add group priorities
This introduces an ordering to fsnotify groups.  With purely asynchronous
notification based "things" implementing fsnotify (inotify, dnotify) ordering
isn't particularly important.  But if people want to use fsnotify for the
basis of sycronous notification or blocking notification ordering becomes
important.

eg. A Hierarchical Storage Management listener would need to get its event
before an AV scanner could get its event (since the HSM would need to
bring the data in for the AV scanner to scan.)  Typically asynchronous notification
would want to run after the AV scanner made any relevant access decisions
so as to not send notification about an event that was denied.

4d92604cc9 fanotify: clear all fanotify marks
fanotify listeners may want to clear all marks.  They may want to do this
to destroy all of their inode marks which have nothing but ignores.
Realistically this is useful for av vendors who update policy and want to
clear all of their cached allows.

c9778a98e7 fanotify: allow ignored_masks to survive modify
Some users may want to truely ignore an inode even if it has been modified.
Say you are wanting a mount which contains a log file and you really don't
want any notification about that file.  This patch allows the listener to
do that.

b9e4e3bd04 fanotify: allow users to set an ignored_mask
Change the sys_fanotify_mark() system call so users can set ignored_masks
on inodes.  Remember, if a user new sets a real mask, and only sets ignored
masks, the ignore will never be pinned in memory.  Thus ignored_masks can
be lost under memory pressure and the user may again get events they
previously thought were ignored.

32a4df13b8 fanotify: ignored_mask to ignore events
When fanotify receives an event it will check event->mask & ~ignored_mask.
If no bits are left the event will not be sent.

90b1e7a578 fsnotify: allow marks to not pin inodes in core
inotify marks must pin inodes in core.  dnotify doesn't technically need to
since they are closed when the directory is closed.  fanotify also need to
pin inodes in core as it works today.  But the next step is to introduce
the concept of 'ignored masks' which is actually a mask of events for an
inode of no interest.  I claim that these should be liberally sent to the
kernel and should not pin the inode in core.  If the inode is brought back
in the listener will get an event it may have thought excluded, but this is
not a serious situation and one any listener should deal with.

This patch lays the ground work for non-pinning inode marks by using lazy
inode pinning.  We do not pin a mark until it has a non-zero mask entry.  If a
listener new sets a mask we never pin the inode.

33d3dfff45 fanotify: remove outgoing function checks in fanotify.h
A number of validity checks on outgoing data are done in static inlines but
are only used in one place.  Instead just do them where they are used for
readability.
