exportfs: be careful to only return expected errors.

2016-10-06T13:07:44Z

When nfsd calls fh_to_dentry, it expect ESTALE or ENOMEM as errors. In particular it can be tempting to return ENOENT, but this is not handled well by nfsd. Rather than requiring strict adherence to error code code filesystems, treat all unexpected error codes the same as ESTALE. This is safest. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

introduce a parallel variant of ->iterate()

2016-05-02T23:49:29Z

New method: ->iterate_shared(). Same arguments as in ->iterate(), called with the directory locked only shared. Once all filesystems switch, the old one will be gone. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

wrappers for ->i_mutex access

2016-01-22T23:04:28Z

parallel to mutex_{lock,unlock,trylock,is_locked,lock_nested}, inode_foo(inode) being mutex_foo(&inode->i_mutex). Please, use those for access to ->i_mutex; over the coming cycle ->i_mutex will become rwsem, with ->lookup() done with it held only shared. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

VFS: (Scripted) Convert S_ISLNK/DIR/REG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_*(dentry)

2015-02-22T16:38:41Z

Convert the following where appropriate: (1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry). (2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry). (3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with a ->d_automount op. In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer). Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the type of the lower dentry. However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem. There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes. The following perl+coccinelle script was used: use strict; my @callers; open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*->d_inode\' |') || die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers"; @callers = <$fd>; close($fd); unless (@callers) { print "No matches\n"; exit(0); } my @cocci = ( '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISLNK(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_symlink(E)', '', '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISDIR(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_dir(E)', '', '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISREG(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_reg(E)' ); my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci"; open($fd, ">$coccifile") || die $coccifile; print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci); close($fd); foreach my $file (@callers) { chomp $file; print "Processing ", $file, "\n"; system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 || die "spatch failed"; } [AV: overlayfs parts skipped] Signed-off-by: David Howells Signed-off-by: Al Viro

exportfs: fix quadratic behavior in filehandle lookup

2013-11-09T05:16:38Z

Suppose we're given the filehandle for a directory whose closest ancestor in the dcache is its Nth ancestor. The main loop in reconnect_path searches for an IS_ROOT ancestor of target_dir, reconnects that ancestor to its parent, then recommences the search for an IS_ROOT ancestor from target_dir. This behavior is quadratic in N. And there's really no need to restart the search from target_dir each time: once a directory has been looked up, it won't become IS_ROOT again. So instead of starting from target_dir each time, we can continue where we left off. This simplifies the code and improves performance on very deep directory heirachies. (I can't think of any reason anyone should need heirarchies a hundred or more deep, but the performance improvement may be valuable if only to limit damage in case of abuse.)
