adc5e8b58f kernfs: drop s_ prefix from kernfs_node members
kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

s_ prefix for kernfs members is used inconsistently and a misnomer
now.  It's not like kernfs_node is used widely across the kernel
making the ability to grep for the members particularly useful.  Let's
just drop the prefix.

324a56e16e kernfs: s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ and rename its friends accordingly
kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/

* s/target_sd/target/
* s/dir_sd/parent/
* s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/
* misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above

Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them.  All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial.  While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

9b2db6e189 sysfs: bail early from kernfs_file_mmap() to avoid spurious lockdep warning
This is v3.14 fix for the same issue that a8b1474442 ("sysfs: give
different locking key to regular and bin files") addresses for v3.13.
Due to the extensive kernfs reorganization in v3.14 branch, the same
fix couldn't be ported as-is.  The v3.13 fix was ignored while merging
it into v3.14 branch.

027a485d12 ("sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files
depending on mmap") assigned different lockdep key to
sysfs_open_file->mutex depending on whether the file implements mmap
or not in an attempt to avoid spurious lockdep warning caused by
merging of regular and bin file paths.

While this restored some of the original behavior of using different
locks (at least lockdep is concerned) for the different clases of
files.  The restoration wasn't full because now the lockdep key
assignment depends on whether the file has mmap or not instead of
whether it's a regular file or not.

This means that bin files which don't implement mmap will get assigned
the same lockdep class as regular files.  This is problematic because
file_operations for bin files still implements the mmap file operation
and checking whether the sysfs file actually implements mmap happens
in the file operation after grabbing @sysfs_open_file->mutex.  We
still end up adding locking dependency from mmap locking to
sysfs_open_file->mutex to the regular file mutex which triggers
spurious circular locking warning.

For v3.13, a8b1474442 ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular
and bin files") fixed it by giving sysfs_open_file->mutex different
lockdep keys depending on whether the file is regular or bin instead
of whether mmap exists or not; however, due to the way sysfs is now
layered behind kernfs, this approach is no longer viable.  kernfs can
tell whether a sysfs node has mmap implemented or not but can't tell
whether a bin file from a regular one.

This patch updates kernfs such that kernfs_file_mmap() checks
SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_MMAP and bail before grabbing sysfs_open_file->mutex so
that it doesn't add spurious locking dependency from mmap to
sysfs_open_file->mutex and changes sysfs so that it specifies
kernfs_ops->mmap iff the sysfs file implements mmap.  Combined, this
ensures that sysfs_open_file->mutex is grabbed under mmap path iff the
sysfs file actually implements mmap.  As sysfs_open_file->mutex is
already given a different lockdep key if mmap is implemented, this
removes the spurious locking dependency.

414985ae23 sysfs, kernfs: move file core code to fs/kernfs/file.c
Move core file code to fs/kernfs/file.c.  fs/sysfs/file.c now contains
sysfs kernfs_ops callbacks, sysfs wrappers around kernfs interfaces,
and sysfs_schedule_callback().  The respective declarations in
fs/sysfs/sysfs.h are moved to fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h.

This is pure relocation.

ccf73cf336 sysfs, kernfs: introduce kernfs[_find_and]_get() and kernfs_put()
Introduce kernfs interface for finding, getting and putting
sysfs_dirents.

* sysfs_find_dirent() is renamed to kernfs_find_ns() and lockdep
  assertion for sysfs_mutex is added.

* sysfs_get_dirent_ns() is renamed to kernfs_find_and_get().

* Macro inline dancing around __sysfs_get/put() are removed and
  kernfs_get/put() are made proper functions implemented in
  fs/sysfs/dir.c.

While the conversions are mostly equivalent, there's one difference -
kernfs_get() doesn't return the input param as its return value.  This
change is intentional.  While passing through the input increases
writability in some areas, it is unnecessary and has been shown to
cause confusion regarding how the last ref is handled.

517e64f578 sysfs, kernfs: revamp sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotation
Currently, sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotation uses
attribute->[s]key as the lockdep key, which forces
kernfs_create_file_ns() to assume that sysfs_dirent->priv is pointing
to a struct attribute which may not be true for non-sysfs users.  This
patch restructures the lockdep annotation such that

* kernfs_ops contains lockdep_key which is used by default for files
  created kernfs_create_file_ns().

* kernfs_create_file_ns_key() is introduced which takes an extra @key
  argument.  The created file will use the specified key for
  active_ref lockdep annotation.  If NULL is specified, lockdep for
  the file is disabled.

* sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated to use
  kernfs_create_file_ns_key() with the appropriate key from the
  attribute or NULL if ignore_lockdep is set.

This makes the lockdep annotation properly contained in kernfs while
allowing sysfs to cleanly keep its current behavior.  This patch
doesn't introduce any behavior differences.

a7dc66dfb4 sysfs, kernfs: remove SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR
After kernfs_ops and sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size addition, the
distinction between SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR and SYSFS_KOBJ_ATTR is only

Afterwards, they behave exactly the same.

sysfs_add_file[_mode_ns]() are updated to take bool @is_bin instead of
@type.

471bd7b78b sysfs, kernfs: add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size
sysfs sets the size of regular files unconditionally at PAGE_SIZE and
takes the size of bin files from bin_attribute.  The latter is a
pretty bad interface which forces bin_attribute users to create a
separate copy of bin_attribute for each instance of the file -
e.g. pci resource files.

Add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size so that the size can be specified
separately.  This unifies inode init paths of ATTR and BIN_ATTR
identical and allows for generic size handling for kernfs.

Unfortunately, this grows the size of sysfs_dirent by sizeof(loff_t).

f6acf8bb6a sysfs, kernfs: introduce kernfs_ops
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
introduces kernfs_ops which hosts methods kernfs users implement and
updates fs/sysfs/file.c such that sysfs_kf_*() functions populate
kernfs_ops and kernfs_file_*() functions call the matching entries
from kernfs_ops.

kernfs_ops contains the following groups of methods.

* seq_show() - for kernfs files which use seq_file for reads.

* read() - for direct read implementations.  Used iff seq_show() is
  not implemented.

* write() - for writes.

* mmap() - for mmaps.

Notes:

* sysfs_elem_attr->ops is added so that kernfs_ops can be accessed
  from sysfs_dirent.  kernfs_ops() helper is added to verify locking
  and access the field.

* SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_(SEQ_SHOW|MMAP) added.  sd->s_attr->ops is accessible
  only while holding active_ref and there are cases where we want to
  take different actions depending on which ops are implemented.
  These two flags cache whether the two ops are implemented for those.

* kernfs_file_*() no longer test sysfs type but chooses different
  behaviors depending on which methods in kernfs_ops are implemented.
  The conversions are trivial except for the open path.  As
  kernfs_file_open() now decides whether to allow read/write accesses
  depending on the kernfs_ops implemented, the presence of methods in
  kobjs and attribute_bin should be propagated to kernfs_ops.
  sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated so that it propagates presence /
  absence of the callbacks through _empty, _ro, _wo, _rw kernfs_ops.

c2b19daf67 sysfs, kernfs: prepare read path for kernfs
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into

* Regular file read path is refactored such that
  kernfs_seq_start/next/stop/show() handle all the boilerplate work
  including locking and updating event count for poll, while
  sysfs_kf_seq_show() deals with interaction with kobj show method.

* Bin file read path is refactored such that kernfs_file_direct_read()
  handles all the boilerplate work including buffer management and
  locking, while sysfs_kf_bin_read() deals with interaction with
  bin_attribute read method.

kernfs_file_read() is added.  It invokes either the seq_file or direct
read path depending on the file type.  This will eventually allow
using the same file_operations for both file types, which is necessary
to separate out kernfs.

While this patch changes the order of some operations, it shouldn't

v2: Dropped unnecessary zeroing of @count from sysfs_kf_seq_show().
    Add comments explaining single_open() behavior.  Both suggested by
    Pavel.

v3: seq_stop() is called even after seq_start() failed.
    kernfs_seq_start() updated so that it doesn't unlock
    sysfs_open_file->mutex on failure so that kernfs_seq_stop()
    doesn't try to unlock an already unlocked mutex.  Reported by

7c6e2d362c sysfs, kernfs: replace sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with ->priv
A directory sysfs_dirent points to the associated kobj.  A regular or
bin file points to the associated [bin_]attribute.  This patch
replaces sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with void *

This is to prepare for kernfs interface so that sysfs can specify the
private data in the same way for directories and files.  This lower
debuggability but not by much - the whole thing was overlaid in a
union anyway.  If debuggability becomes an issue, we can later add
->priv accessors which explicitly check for the sysfs_dirent type and
performs casting.

This happens because one file nests sr_mutex, which nests mm->mmap_sem
under it, under of->mutex while mmap implementation naturally nests
of->mutex under mm->mmap_sem.  The warning is false positive as
of->mutex is per open-file and the two paths belong to two different
files.  This warning didn't trigger before regular and bin file
supports were merged because only bin file supported mmap and the
other side of locking happened only on regular files which used
equivalent but separate locking.

It'd be best if we give separate locking classes per file but we can't
easily do that.  Let's differentiate on ->mmap() for now.  Later we'll
add explicit file operations struct and can add per-ops lockdep key
there.

044e3bc333 sysfs: use generic_file_llseek() for sysfs_file_operations
13c589d5b0 ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files")
converted regular sysfs files to use seq_file.  The commit substituted
generic_file_llseek() with seq_lseek() for llseek implementation.

Before the change, all regular sysfs files were allowed to seek to any
position in [0, PAGE_SIZE] as the file size is always PAGE_SIZE and
generic_file_llseek() allows any seeking inside the range under file
size; however, seq_lseek()'s behavior is different.  It traverses the
output by repeatedly invoking ->show() until it reaches the target
offset or traversal indicates EOF.  As seq_files are fully dynamic and
may not end at all, it doesn't support seeking from the end
(SEEK_END).

Apparently, there are userland tools which uses SEEK_END to discover
the buffer size to use and the switch to seq_lseek() disturbs them as
SEEK_END fails with -EINVAL.

The only benefits of using seq_lseek() instead of
generic_file_llseek() are

* Early failure.  If traversing to certain file position should fail,
  seq_lseek() will report such failures on lseek(2) instead of the
  following read/write operations.

* EOF detection.  While SEEK_END is not supported, SEEK_SET/CUR +
  large offset can be used to detect eof - eof at the time of the seek
  anyway as the file size may change dynamically.

Both aren't necessary for sysfs or prospect kernfs users.  Revert to
genefic_file_llseek() and preserve the original behavior.

56b3f3b884 sysfs: merge sysfs_elem_bin_attr into sysfs_elem_attr
3124eb1679 ("sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling") folded bin
file handling into regular file handling.  Among other things, bin
file now shares the same open path including sysfs_open_dirent
association using sysfs_dirent->s_attr.open.  This is buggy because
->s_bin_attr lives in the same union and doesn't have the field.  This
bug doesn't trigger because sysfs_elem_bin_attr doesn't have an active
field at the conflicting position.  It does have a field "buffers" but
it isn't used anymore.

This patch collapses sysfs_elem_bin_attr into sysfs_elem_attr so that
the bin_attr is accessed through ->s_attr.bin_attr which lives with
->s_attr.attr in an anonymous union.  The code paths already assume
bin_attr contains attr as the first element, so this doesn't add any
more assumptions while making it explicit that the two types are
handled together.

b9c0622516 sysfs: fix sysfs_write_file for bin file
Before patch(sysfs: prepare path write for unified regular / bin
file handling), when size of bin file is zero, writting still can
continue, but this patch changes the behaviour.

The worse thing is that firmware loader is broken by this patch,
and user space application can't write to firmware bin file any more
because both firmware loader and drivers can't know at advance how
large the firmware file is and have to set its initialized size as
zero.

This patch fixes the problem and keeps behaviour of writting to bin
as before.

d723a92dd4 sysfs/bin: Fix size handling overflow for bin_attribute
While looking at the code, I noticed that bin_attribute read() and write()
ops copy the inode size into an int for futher comparisons.

Some bin_attributes can be fairly large. For example, pci creates some for
BARs set to the BAR size and giant BARs are around the corner, so this is
going to break something somewhere eventually.

Let's use the right type.

375b611e60 ("sysfs: remove sysfs_buffer->ops") introduced
sysfs_file_ops() which determines the associated file operation of a

active reference, the new function includes a lockdep assertion on the
sysfs_dirent; unfortunately, I forgot to take attr->ignore_lockdep
flag into account and the lockdep assertion trips spuriously for files
which opt out from active reference lockdep checking.

3124eb1679 sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling
With the previous changes, sysfs regular file code is ready to handle
bin files too.  This patch makes bin files share the regular file
path.

* sysfs_create/remove_bin_file() are moved to fs/sysfs/file.c.

* sysfs_init_inode() is updated to use the new sysfs_bin_operations
  instead of bin_fops for bin files.

* fs/sysfs/bin.c and the related pieces are removed.

This patch shouldn't introduce any behavior difference to bin file
accesses.

Overall, this unification reduces the amount of duplicate logic, makes
behaviors more consistent and paves the road for building simpler and
more versatile interface which will allow other subsystems to make use
of sysfs for their pseudo filesystems.

13c589d5b0 sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files
sysfs read path implements its own buffering scheme between userland
and kernel callbacks, which essentially is a degenerate duplicate of
seq_file.  This patch replaces the custom read buffering
implementation in sysfs with seq_file.

While the amount of code reduction is small, this reduces low level
hairiness and enables future development of a new versatile API based
on seq_file so that sysfs features can be shared with other
subsystems.

As write path was already converted to not use sysfs_open_file->page,
this patch makes ->page and ->count unused and removes them.

Userland behavior remains the same except for some extreme corner
cases - e.g. sysfs will now regenerate the content each time a file is
read after a non-contiguous seek whereas the original code would keep
using the same content.  While this is a userland visible behavior
change, it is extremely unlikely to be noticeable and brings sysfs
behavior closer to that of procfs.

8ef445f080 sysfs: use transient write buffer
There isn't much to be gained by keeping around kernel buffer while a
file is open especially as the read path planned to be converted to
use seq_file and won't use the buffer.  This patch makes
sysfs_write_file() use per-write transient buffer instead of
sysfs_open_file->page.

This simplifies the write path, enables removing sysfs_open_file->page
once read path is updated and will help merging bin file write path
which already requires the use of a transient buffer due to a locking
order issue.

As the function comments of flush_write_buffer() and
sysfs_write_buffer() are being updated anyway, reformat them so that
they're more conventional.

aea585ef8f sysfs: remove sysfs_buffer->needs_read_fill
->needs_read_fill is used to implement the following behaviors.

1. Ensure buffer filling on the first read.
2. Force buffer filling after a write.
3. Force buffer filling after a successful poll.

However, #2 and #3 don't really work as sysfs doesn't reset file
position.  While the read buffer would be refilled, the next read
would continue from the position after the last read or write,
requiring an explicit seek to the start for it to be useful, which
makes ->needs_read_fill superflous as read buffer is always refilled
if f_pos == 0.

Update sysfs_read_file() to test buffer->page for #1 instead and
remove ->needs_read_fill.  While this changes behavior in extreme
corner cases - e.g. re-reading a sysfs file after seeking to non-zero
position after a write or poll, it's highly unlikely to lead to actual
breakage.  This change is to prepare for using seq_file in the read
path.

While at it, reformat a comment in fill_write_buffer().

sysfs_addrm_start/finish() enclose sysfs_dirent additions and
deletions and sysfs_addrm_cxt is used to record information necessary
to finish the operations.  Currently, sysfs_addrm_start() takes
@parent_sd, records it in sysfs_addrm_cxt, and assumes that all
operations in the block are performed under that @parent_sd.

This assumption has been fine until now but we want to make some
operations behave recursively and, while having @parent_sd recorded in
sysfs_addrm_cxt doesn't necessarily prevents that, it becomes
confusing.

This patch removes sysfs_addrm_cxt->parent_sd and makes
sysfs_add_one() take an explicit @parent_sd parameter.  Note that
sysfs_remove_one() doesn't need the extra argument as its parent is
always known from the target @sd.

The pre-existing sysfs interfaces which take explicit namespace

58292cbe66 sysfs: make attr namespace interface less convoluted
sysfs ns (namespace) implementation became more convoluted than
necessary while trying to hide ns information from visible interface.
The relatively recent attr ns support is a good example.

* attr ns tag is determined by sysfs_ops->namespace() callback while
  dir tag is determined by kobj_type->namespace().  The placement is
  arbitrary.

* Instead of performing operations with explicit ns tag, the namespace
  callback is routed through sysfs_attr_ns(), sysfs_ops->namespace(),
  class_attr_namespace(), class_attr->namespace().  It's not simpler
  in any sense.  The only thing this convolution does is traversing
  the whole stack backwards.

The namespace callbacks are unncessary because the operations involved
are inherently synchronous.  The information can be provided in in
straight-forward top-down direction and reversing that direction is
unnecessary and against basic design principles.

This backward interface is unnecessarily convoluted and hinders
properly separating out sysfs from driver model / kobject for proper
layering.  This patch updates attr ns support such that

* sysfs_ops->namespace() and class_attr->namespace() are dropped.

* sysfs_{create|remove}_file_ns(), which take explicit @ns param, are
  added and sysfs_{create|remove}_file() are now simple wrappers
  around the ns aware functions.

* ns handling is dropped from sysfs_chmod_file().  Nobody uses it at
  this point.  sysfs_chmod_file_ns() can be added later if necessary.

* Explicit @ns is propagated through class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
  and netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns().

* driver/net/bonding which is currently the only user of attr
  namespace is updated to use netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
  with @bh->net as the ns tag instead of using the namespace callback.

This patch should be an equivalent conversion without any functional
difference.  It makes the code easier to follow, reduces lines of code
a bit and helps proper separation and layering.
