| * fs: push sync_filesystem() down to the file system's remount_fs()Theodore Ts'o2014-03-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied, unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful, except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting remounted read-only. However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something like romfs).

* debugfs: debugfs_remove_recursive() must not rely on list_empty(d_subdirs)Oleg Nesterov2013-07-311-47/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | debugfs_remove_recursive() is wrong, 1. it wrongly assumes that !list_empty(d_subdirs) means that this dir should be removed. This is not that bad by itself, but: 2. if d_subdirs does not becomes empty after __debugfs_remove() it gives up and silently fails, it doesn't even try to remove other entries. However ->d_subdirs can be non-empty because it still has the already deleted !debugfs_positive() entries. 3. simple_release_fs() is called even if __debugfs_remove() fails. Suppose we have dir1/ dir2/ file2 file1 and someone opens dir1/dir2/file2. Now, debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1/dir2) succeeds, and dir1/dir2 goes away. But debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1) silently fails and doesn't remove this directory. Because it tries to delete (the already deleted) dir1/dir2/file2 again and then fails due to "Avoid infinite loop" logic. Test-case: #!/bin/sh cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo 'p:probe/sigprocmask sigprocmask' >> kprobe_events sleep 1000 < events/probe/sigprocmask/id & echo -n >| kprobe_events [ -d events/probe ] && echo "ERR!! failed to rm probe" And after that it is not possible to create another probe entry. With this patch debugfs_remove_recursive() skips !debugfs_positive() files although this is not strictly needed. The most important change is that it does not try to make ->d_subdirs empty, it simply scans the whole list(s) recursively and removes as much as possible.

* fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.Eric W. Biederman2013-03-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty. Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no problems from identical code from different trees showing up in linux-next. After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* debugfs: dont stop on first failed recursive deleteSteven Rostedt2009-06-151-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | debugfs: dont stop on first failed recursive delete While running a while loop of removing a module that removes a debugfs directory with debugfs_remove_recursive, and at the same time doing a while loop of cat of a file in that directory, I would hit a point where somehow the cat of the file caused the remove to fail. The result is that other files did not get removed when the module was removed. I simple read of one of those file can oops the kernel because the operations to the file no longer exist (removed by module). The funny thing is that the file being cat'ed was removed. It was the siblings that were not. I see in the code to debugfs_remove_recursive there's a test that checks if the child fails to bail out of the loop to prevent an infinite loop. What this patch does is to still try any siblings in that directory. If all the siblings fail, or there are no more siblings, then we exit the loop. This fixes the above symptom, but... This is no full proof. It makes the debugfs_remove_recursive a bit more robust, but it does not explain why the one file failed. There may be some kind of delay deletion that makes the debugfs think it did not succeed. So this patch is more of a fix for the symptom but not the disease. This patch still makes the debugfs_remove_recursive more robust and until I can find out why the bug exists, this patch will keep the kernel from oopsing in most cases. Even after the cause is found I think this change can stand on its own and should be kept.

* debugfs: function to know if debugfs is initializedFrederic Weisbecker2009-03-231-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: add new debugfs API With ftrace, some tracers are registered in early initcalls and attempt to create files on the debugfs filesystem. Depending on when they are activated, they can try to create their file at any time. Some checks can be done on the tracing area but providing a helper to know if debugfs is registered make it really more easy.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | debugfs_remove_recursive() will remove a dentry and all its children. Drivers can use this to zap their whole debugfs tree so that they don't need to keep track of every single debugfs dentry they created. It may fail to remove the whole tree in certain cases: sh-3.2# rmmod atmel-mci < /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/ios/clock mmc0: card b368 removed atmel_mci atmel_mci.0: Lost dma0chan1, falling back to PIO sh-3.2# ls /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/ ios But I'm not sure if that case can be handled in any sane manner.

* debugfs: remove rmdir() non-empty complaintJens Axboe2007-07-181-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi, This patch kills the pointless debugfs rmdir() printk() when called on a non-empty directory. blktrace will sometimes have to call it a few times when forcefully ending a trace, which polutes the log with pointless warnings. Rationale: - It's more code to work-around this "problem" in the debugfs users, and you would have to add code to check for empty directories to do so (or assume that debugfs is using simple_ helpers, but that would be a layering violation). - Other rmdir() implementations don't complain about something this silly.

* DebugFS : file/directory removal fixMathieu Desnoyers2006-12-131-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix file and directory removal in debugfs. Add inotify support for file removal. The following scenario : create dir a create dir a/b cd a/b (some process goes in cwd a/b) rmdir a/b rmdir a fails due to the fact that "a" appears to be non empty. It is because the "b" dentry is not deleted from "a" and still in use. The same problem happens if "b" is a file. d_delete is nice enough to know when it needs to unhash and free the dentry if nothing else is using it or, if someone is using it, to remove it from the hash queues and wait for it to be deleted when it has no users. The nice side-effect of this fix is that it calls the file removal notification. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
