7dc72d5f7a NFS: Fix inode corruption in nfs_prime_dcache()
Due to inode number reuse in filesystems, we can end up corrupting the
inode on our client if we apply the file attributes without ensuring that
the filehandle matches.
Typical symptoms include spurious "mode changed" reports in the syslog.

We still do want to ensure that we don't invalidate the dentry if the
inode number matches, but we don't have a filehandle.

78d04af499 NFS: nfs_prime_dcache must validate the filename
Before we try to stash it in the dcache, we need to at least check
that the filename passed to us by the server is non-empty and doesn't
contain any illegal '\0' or '/' characters.

7f155c7026 NFS client updates for Linux 4.8
Highlights include:
 
 Stable bugfixes:
  - nfs: don't create zero-length requests
  - Several LAYOUTGET bugfixes
 
 Features:
  - Several performance related features
    - More aggressive caching when we can rely on close-to-open cache
      consistency
    - Remove serialisation of O_DIRECT reads and writes
    - Optimise several code paths to not flush to disk unnecessarily. However
      allow for the idiosyncracies of pNFS for those layout types that need
      to issue a LAYOUTCOMMIT before the metadata can be updated on the server.
    - SUNRPC updates to the client data receive path
  - pNFS/SCSI support RH/Fedora dm-mpath device nodes
  - pNFS files/flexfiles can now use unprivileged ports when the generic NFS
    mount options allow it.
 
 Bugfixes:
  - Don't use RDMA direct data placement together with data integrity or
    privacy security flavours
  - Remove the RDMA ALLPHYSICAL memory registration mode as it has potential
    security holes.
  - Several layout recall fixes to improve NFSv4.1 protocol compliance.

554828ee0d Merge branch 'salted-string-hash'
This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the
_beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end.

That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we
can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache
setup, and do less at lookup runtime.

It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in
a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended
interface ends up working well for other cases too.

Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a
'salt' pointer of NULL.

d20cb71dbf make nfs_atomic_open() call d_drop() on all ->open_context() errors.
In "NFSv4: Move dentry instantiation into the NFSv4-specific atomic open code"
unconditional d_drop() after the ->open_context() had been removed.  It had
been correct for success cases (there ->open_context() itself had been doing
dcache manipulations), but not for error ones.  Only one of those (ENOENT)
got a compensatory d_drop() added in that commit, but in fact it should've
been done for all errors.  As it is, the case of O_CREAT non-exclusive open
on a hashed negative dentry racing with e.g. symlink creation from another
client ended up with ->open_context() getting an error and proceeding to
call nfs_lookup().  On a hashed dentry, which would've instantly triggered
BUG_ON() in d_materialise_unique() (or, these days, its equivalent in
d_splice_alias()).

8387ff2577 vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash
We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
instead of late.

A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
NULL pointer as a no-salt.

09cbfeaf1a mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -> get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

e8ecde25f5 Make sure that highmem pages are not added to symlink page cache
inode_nohighmem() is sufficient to make sure that page_get_link()
won't try to allocate a highmem page.  Moreover, it is sufficient
to make sure that page_symlink/__page_symlink won't do the same
thing.  However, any filesystem that manually preseeds the symlink's
page cache upon symlink(2) needs to make sure that the page it
inserts there won't be a highmem one.

Fortunately, only nfs and shmem have run afoul of that...

5c5fc09a11 NFS: Ensure we revalidate attributes before using execute_ok()
Donald Buczek reports that NFS clients can also report incorrect
results for access() due to lack of revalidation of attributes
before calling execute_ok().
Looking closely, it seems chdir() is afflicted with the same problem.

Fix is to ensure we call nfs_revalidate_inode_rcu() or
nfs_revalidate_inode() as appropriate before deciding to trust
execute_ok().

762674f86d NFSv4: Don't perform cached access checks before we've OPENed the file
Donald Buczek reports that a nfs4 client incorrectly denies
execute access based on outdated file mode (missing 'x' bit).
After the mode on the server is 'fixed' (chmod +x) further execution
attempts continue to fail, because the nfs ACCESS call updates
the access parameter but not the mode parameter or the mode in
the inode.

The root cause is ultimately that the VFS is calling may_open()
before the NFS client has a chance to OPEN the file and hence revalidate
the access and attribute caches.

Al Viro suggests:
>>> Make nfs_permission() relax the checks when it sees MAY_OPEN, if you know
>>> that things will be caught by server anyway?
>>
>> That can work as long as we're guaranteed that everything that calls
>> inode_permission() with MAY_OPEN on a regular file will also follow up
>> with a vfs_open() or dentry_open() on success. Is this always the
>> case?
>
> 1) in do_tmpfile(), followed by do_dentry_open() (not reachable by NFS since
> it doesn't have ->tmpfile() instance anyway)
>
> 2) in atomic_open(), after the call of ->atomic_open() has succeeded.
>
> 3) in do_last(), followed on success by vfs_open()
>
> That's all.  All calls of inode_permission() that get MAY_OPEN come from
> may_open(), and there's no other callers of that puppy.

If the server does not return a valid set of attributes that we can
use to either create a file or refresh the inode, then there is no
value in calling nfs_prime_dcache().

However if we're just refreshing the inode using the attributes that

6c441c254e NFS: Don't invalidate a submounted dentry in nfs_prime_dcache()
If we're traversing a directory which contains a submounted filesystem,
or one that has a referral, the NFS server that is processing the READDIR
request will often return information for the underlying (mounted-on)
directory. It may, or may not, also return filehandle information.

If this happens, and the lookup in nfs_prime_dcache() returns the
dentry for the submounted directory, the filehandle comparison will
fail, and we call d_invalidate(). Post-commit 8ed936b567
("vfs: Lazily remove mounts on unlinked files and directories."), this
means the entire subtree is unmounted.

The following minimal patch addresses this problem by punting on
the invalidation if there is a submount.

Kudos to Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> for having tracked down this
issue (see link).

50d77739fa NFS: fix two problems in lookup_revalidate in RCU-walk
1/ rcu_dereference isn't correct: that field isn't
   RCU protected.   It could potentially change at any time
   so ACCESS_ONCE might be justified.

   changes to ->d_parent are protected by ->d_seq.  However
   that isn't always checked after ->d_revalidate is called,
   so it is safest to keep the double-check that ->d_parent
   hasn't changed at the end of these functions.

2/ in nfs4_lookup_revalidate, "->d_parent" was forgotten.
   So 'parent' was not the parent of 'dentry'.
   This fails safe is the context is that dentry->d_inode is
   NULL, and the result of parent->d_inode being NULL is
   that ECHILD is returned, which is always safe.

f682a398b2 NFS: allow lockless access to access_cache
The access cache is used during RCU-walk path lookups, so it is best
to avoid locking if possible as taking a lock kills concurrency.

The rbtree is not rcu-safe and cannot easily be made so.
Instead we simply check the last (i.e. most recent) entry on the LRU
list.  If this doesn't match, then we return -ECHILD and retry in
lock/refcount mode.

This requires freeing the nfs_access_entry struct with rcu, and
requires using rcu access primatives when adding entries to the lru, and
when examining the last entry.

Calling put_rpccred before kfree_rcu looks a bit odd, but as
put_rpccred already provides rcu protection, we know that the cred will
not actually be freed until the next grace period, so any concurrent
access will be safe.

This patch provides about 5% performance improvement on a stat-heavy
synthetic work load with 4 threads on a 2-core CPU.

912a108da7 NFS: teach nfs_neg_need_reval to understand LOOKUP_RCU
This requires nfs_check_verifier to take an rcu_walk flag, and requires
an rcu version of nfs_revalidate_inode which returns -ECHILD rather
than making an RPC call.

With this, nfs_lookup_revalidate can call nfs_neg_need_reval in
RCU-walk mode.

We can also move the LOOKUP_RCU check past the nfs_check_verifier()
call in nfs_lookup_revalidate.

If RCU_WALK prevents nfs_check_verifier or nfs_neg_need_reval from
doing a full check, they return a status indicating that a revalidation
is required.  As this revalidation will not be possible in RCU_WALK
mode, -ECHILD will ultimately be returned, which is the desired result.

f3324a2a94 NFS: support RCU_WALK in nfs_permission()
nfs_permission makes two calls which are not always safe in RCU_WALK,
rpc_lookup_cred and nfs_do_access.

The second can easily be made rcu-safe by aborting with -ECHILD before
making the RPC call.

The former can be made rcu-safe by calling rpc_lookup_cred_nonblock()
instead.
As this will almost always succeed, we use it even when RCU_WALK
isn't being used as it still saves some spinlocks in a common case.
We only fall back to rpc_lookup_cred() if rpc_lookup_cred_nonblock()
fails and MAY_NOT_BLOCK isn't set.

This optimisation (always trying rpc_lookup_cred_nonblock()) is
particularly important when a security module is active.
In that case inode_permission() may return -ECHILD from
security_inode_permission() even though ->permission() succeeded in
RCU_WALK mode.
This leads to may_lookup() retrying inode_permission after performing
unlazy_walk().  The spinlock that rpc_lookup_cred() takes is often
more expensive than anything security_inode_permission() does, so that
spinlock becomes the main bottleneck.

d51ac1a8e9 NFS: prepare for RCU-walk support but pushing tests later in code.
nfs_lookup_revalidate, nfs4_lookup_revalidate, and nfs_permission
all need to understand and handle RCU-walk for NFS to gain the
benefits of RCU-walk for cached information.

Currently these functions all immediately return -ECHILD
if the relevant flag (LOOKUP_RCU or MAY_NOT_BLOCK) is set.

This patch pushes those tests later in the code so that we only abort
immediately before we enter rcu-unsafe code.  As subsequent patches
make that rcu-unsafe code rcu-safe, several of these new tests will
disappear.

With this patch there are several paths through the code which will no
longer return -ECHILD during an RCU-walk.  However these are mostly
error paths or other uninteresting cases.

A noteworthy change in nfs_lookup_revalidate is that we don't take
(or put) the reference to ->d_parent when LOOKUP_RCU is set.
Rather we rcu_dereference ->d_parent, and check that ->d_inode
is not NULL.  We also check that ->d_parent hasn't changed after
all the tests.

In nfs4_lookup_revalidate we simply avoid testing LOOKUP_RCU on the
path that only calls nfs_lookup_revalidate() as that function
already performs the required test.

49317a7fda NFS: nfs4_lookup_revalidate: only evaluate parent if it will be used.
nfs4_lookup_revalidate only uses 'parent' to get 'dir', and only
uses 'dir' if 'inode == NULL'.

So we don't need to find out what 'parent' or 'dir' is until we
know that 'inode' is NULL.

By moving 'dget_parent' inside the 'if', we can reduce the number of
call sites for 'dput(parent)'.
