Pull directory locking updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to add centralized APIs for directory locking
operations.
This series is part of a larger effort to change directory operation
locking to allow multiple concurrent operations in a directory. The
ultimate goal is to lock the target dentry(s) rather than the whole
parent directory.
To help with changing the locking protocol, this series centralizes
locking and lookup in new helper functions. The helpers establish a
pattern where it is the dentry that is being locked and unlocked
(currently the lock is held on dentry->d_parent->d_inode, but that can
change in the future).
This also changes vfs_mkdir() to unlock the parent on failure, as well
as dput()ing the dentry. This allows end_creating() to only require
the target dentry (which may be IS_ERR() after vfs_mkdir()), not the
parent"

Occasionally the caller of end_creating() wants to keep using the dentry.
Rather then requiring them to dget() the dentry (when not an error)
before calling end_creating(), provide end_creating_keep() which does
this.
cachefiles and overlayfs make use of this.

vfs_mkdir() already drops the reference to the dentry on failure but it
leaves the parent locked.
This complicates end_creating() which needs to unlock the parent even
though the dentry is no longer available.
If we change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure as well as releasing the
dentry, we can remove the "parent" arg from end_creating() and simplify
the rules for calling it.
Note that cachefiles_get_directory() can choose to substitute an error
instead of actually calling vfs_mkdir(), for fault injection. In that
case it needs to call end_creating(), just as vfs_mkdir() now does on
error.
ovl_create_real() will now unlock on error. So the conditional
end_creating() after the call is removed, and end_creating() is called
internally on error.

start_removing_dentry() is similar to start_removing() but instead of
providing a name for lookup, the target dentry is given.
start_removing_dentry() checks that the dentry is still hashed and in
the parent, and if so it locks and increases the refcount so that
end_removing() can be used to finish the operation.
This is used in cachefiles, overlayfs, smb/server, and apparmor.
There will be other users including ecryptfs.
As start_removing_dentry() takes an extra reference to the dentry (to be
put by end_removing()), there is no need to explicitly take an extra
reference to stop d_delete() from using dentry_unlink_inode() to negate
the dentry - as in cachefiles_delete_object(), and ksmbd_vfs_unlink().
cachefiles_bury_object() now gets an extra ref to the victim, which is
drops. As it includes the needed end_removing() calls, the caller
doesn't need them.

start_removing() is similar to start_creating() but will only return a
positive dentry with the expectation that it will be removed. This is
used by nfsd, cachefiles, and overlayfs. They are changed to also use
end_removing() to terminate the action begun by start_removing(). This
is a simple alias for end_dirop().
Apart from changes to the error paths, as we no longer need to unlock on
a lookup error, an effect on callers is that they don't need to test if
the found dentry is positive or negative - they can be sure it is
positive.

start_creating() is similar to simple_start_creating() but is not so
simple.
It takes a qstr for the name, includes permission checking, and does NOT
report an error if the name already exists, returning a positive dentry
instead.
This is currently used by nfsd, cachefiles, and overlayfs.
end_creating() is called after the dentry has been used.
end_creating() drops the reference to the dentry as it is generally no
longer needed. This is exactly the first section of end_creating_path()
so that function is changed to call the new end_creating()
These calls help encapsulate locking rules so that directory locking can
be changed.
Occasionally this change means that the parent lock is held for a
shorter period of time, for example in cachefiles_commit_tmpfile().
As this function now unlocks after an unlink and before the following
lookup, it is possible that the lookup could again find a positive
dentry, so a while loop is introduced there.
In overlayfs the ovl_lookup_temp() function has ovl_tempname()
split out to be used in ovl_start_creating_temp(). The other use
of ovl_lookup_temp() is preparing for a rename. When rename handling
is updated, ovl_lookup_temp() will be removed.

A rename operation can only rename within a single mount. Callers of
vfs_rename() must and do ensure this is the case.
So there is no point in having two mnt_idmaps in renamedata as they are
always the same. Only one of them is passed to ->rename in any case.
This patch replaces both with a single "mnt_idmap" and changes all
callers.

all users of 'struct renamedata' have the dentry for the old and new
directories, and often have no use for the inode except to store it in
the renamedata.
This patch changes struct renamedata to hold the dentry, rather than
the inode, for the old and new directories, and changes callers to
match. The names are also changed from a _dir suffix to _parent. This
is consistent with other usage in namei.c and elsewhere.
This results in the removal of several local variables and several
dereferences of ->d_inode at the cost of adding ->d_inode dereferences
to vfs_rename().

cachefiles uses some VFS interfaces (such as vfs_mkdir) which take an
explicit mnt_idmap, and it passes &nop_mnt_idmap as cachefiles doesn't
yet support idmapped mounts.
It also uses the lookup_one_len() family of functions which implicitly
use &nop_mnt_idmap. This mixture of implicit and explicit could be
confusing. When we eventually update cachefiles to support idmap mounts it
would be best if all places which need an idmap determined from the
mount point were similar and easily found.
So this patch changes cachefiles to use lookup_one(), lookup_one_unlocked(),
and lookup_one_positive_unlocked(), passing &nop_mnt_idmap.
This has the benefit of removing the remaining user of the
lookup_one_len functions where permission checking is actually needed.
Other callers don't care about permission checking and using these
function only where permission checking is needed is a valuable
simplification.
This requires passing the name in a qstr. This is easily done with
QSTR() as the name is always nul terminated, and often strlen is used
anyway. ->d_name_len is removed as no longer useful.

Commit c54b386969a5 ("VFS: Change vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry.")
changed cachefiles_get_directory, replacing "subdir" with a ERR_PTR
from the result of cachefiles_inject_write_error, which is either 0
or some error code. This causes an oops when the resulting pointer
is passed to vfs_mkdir.
Use a similar pattern to what is used earlier in the function; replace
subdir with either the return value from vfs_mkdir, or the ERR_PTR
of the cachefiles_inject_write_error() return value, but only if it
is non zero.

vfs_mkdir() does not guarantee to leave the child dentry hashed or make
it positive on success, and in many such cases the filesystem had to use
a different dentry which it can now return.
This patch changes vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry provided by the
filesystems which is hashed and positive when provided. This reduces
the number of cases where the resulting dentry is not positive to a
handful which don't deserve extra efforts.
The only callers of vfs_mkdir() which are interested in the resulting
inode are in-kernel filesystem clients: cachefiles, nfsd, smb/server.
The only filesystems that don't reliably provide the inode are:
- kernfs, tracefs which these clients are unlikely to be interested in
- cifs in some configurations would need to do a lookup to find the
created inode, but doesn't. cifs cannot be exported via NFS, is
unlikely to be used by cachefiles, and smb/server only has a soft
requirement for the inode, so this is unlikely to be a problem in
practice.
- hostfs, nfs, cifs may need to do a lookup (rarely for NFS) and it is
possible for a race to make that lookup fail. Actual failure
is unlikely and providing callers handle negative dentries graceful
they will fail-safe.
So this patch removes the lookup code in nfsd and smb/server and adjusts
them to fail safe if a negative dentry is provided:
- cache-files already fails safe by restarting the task from the
top - it still does with this change, though it no longer calls
cachefiles_put_directory() as that will crash if the dentry is
negative.
- nfsd reports "Server-fault" which it what it used to do if the lookup
failed. This will never happen on any file-systems that it can actually
export, so this is of no consequence. I removed the fh_update()
call as that is not needed and out-of-place. A subsequent
nfsd_create_setattr() call will call fh_update() when needed.
- smb/server only wants the inode to call ksmbd_smb_inherit_owner()
which updates ->i_uid (without calling notify_change() or similar)
which can be safely skipping on cifs (I hope).
If a different dentry is returned, the first one is put. If necessary
the fact that it is new can be determined by comparing pointers. A new
dentry will certainly have a new pointer (as the old is put after the
new is obtained).
Similarly if an error is returned (via ERR_PTR()) the original dentry is
put.

Currently, cachefiles_commit_tmpfile() will only be called if object->flags
is set to CACHEFILES_OBJECT_USING_TMPFILE. Only cachefiles_create_file()
and cachefiles_invalidate_cookie() set this flag. Both of these functions
replace object->file with the new tmpfile, and both are called by
fscache_cookie_state_machine(), so there are no concurrency issues.
So the equation "d_backing_inode(dentry) == file_inode(object->file)" in
cachefiles_commit_tmpfile() will never hold true according to the above
conditions. This patch removes this part of the redundant code and does not
involve any other logical changes.

In other words, ->s_vfs_rename_mutex is sufficient to stabilize "X is an

it can go from false to true, and one can construct a deadlock on that.

Fscache has an optimisation by which reads from the cache are skipped
until we know that (a) there's data there to be read and (b) that data
isn't entirely covered by pages resident in the netfs pagecache. This is
done with two flags manipulated by fscache_note_page_release():
if (...
test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_HAVE_DATA, &cookie->flags) &&
test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags))
clear_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags);
where the NO_DATA_TO_READ flag causes cachefiles_prepare_read() to
indicate that netfslib should download from the server or clear the page
instead.
The fscache_note_page_release() function is intended to be called from
->releasepage() - but that only gets called if PG_private or PG_private_2
is set - and currently the former is at the discretion of the network
filesystem and the latter is only set whilst a page is being written to
the cache, so sometimes we miss clearing the optimisation.
Fix this by following Willy's suggestion[1] and adding an address_space
flag, AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS, that causes filemap_release_folio() to always call
->release_folio() if it's set, even if PG_private or PG_private_2 aren't
set.
Note that this would require folio_test_private() and page_has_private() to
become more complicated. To avoid that, in the places[*] where these are
used to conditionalise calls to filemap_release_folio() and
try_to_release_page(), the tests are removed the those functions just
jumped to unconditionally and the test is performed there.
[*] There are some exceptions in vmscan.c where the check guards more than
just a call to the releaser. I've added a function, folio_needs_release()
to wrap all the checks for that.
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS should be set if a non-NULL cookie is obtained from
fscache and cleared in ->evict_inode() before truncate_inode_pages_final()
is called.
Additionally, the FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ flag needs to be cleared
and the optimisation cancelled if a cachefiles object already contains data
when we open it.

Pull vfs file handling updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains Amir's work to fix a long-standing problem where an
unprivileged overlayfs mount can be used to avoid fanotify permission
events that were requested for an inode or superblock on the
underlying filesystem.
Some background about files opened in overlayfs. If a file is opened
in overlayfs @file->f_path will refer to a "fake" path. What this
means is that while @file->f_inode will refer to inode of the
underlying layer, @file->f_path refers to an overlayfs
{dentry,vfsmount} pair. The reasons for doing this are out of scope
here but it is the reason why the vfs has been providing the
open_with_fake_path() helper for overlayfs for very long time now. So
nothing new here.
This is for sure not very elegant and everyone including the overlayfs
maintainers agree. Improving this significantly would involve more
fragile and potentially rather invasive changes.
In various codepaths access to the path of the underlying filesystem
is needed for such hybrid file. The best example is fsnotify where
this becomes security relevant. Passing the overlayfs
@file->f_path->dentry will cause fsnotify to skip generating fsnotify
events registered on the underlying inode or superblock.
To fix this we extend the vfs provided open_with_fake_path() concept
for overlayfs to create a backing file container that holds the real
path and to expose a helper that can be used by relevant callers to
get access to the path of the underlying filesystem through the new
file_real_path() helper. This pattern is similar to what we do in
d_real() and d_real_inode().
The first beneficiary is fsnotify and fixes the security sensitive
problem mentioned above.
There's a couple of nice cleanups included as well.
Over time, the old open_with_fake_path() helper added specifically for
overlayfs a long time ago started to get used in other places such as
cachefiles. Even though cachefiles have nothing to do with hybrid
files.
The only reason cachefiles used that concept was that files opened
with open_with_fake_path() aren't charged against the caller's open
file limit by raising FMODE_NOACCOUNT. It's just mere coincidence that
both overlayfs and cachefiles need to ensure to not overcharge the
caller for their internal open calls.
So this work disentangles FMODE_NOACCOUNT use cases and backing file
use-cases by adding the FMODE_BACKING flag which indicates that the
file can be used to retrieve the backing file of another filesystem.
(Fyi, Jens will be sending you a really nice cleanup from Christoph
that gets rid of 3 FMODE_* flags otherwise this would be the last
fmode_t bit we'd be using.)
So now overlayfs becomes the sole user of the renamed
open_with_fake_path() helper which is now named backing_file_open().
For internal kernel users such as cachefiles that are only interested
in FMODE_NOACCOUNT but not in FMODE_BACKING we add a new
kernel_file_open() helper which opens a file without being charged
against the caller's open file limit. All new helpers are properly
documented and clearly annotated to mention their special uses.
We also rename vfs_tmpfile_open() to kernel_tmpfile_open() to clearly
distinguish it from vfs_tmpfile() and align it the other kernel_*()
internal helpers"

Convert to struct mnt_idmap.
Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in
256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts").
This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a
mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to
conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for
bugs.
Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the
really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems
only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

Use the vfs_tmpfile_open() helper instead of doing tmpfile creation and
opening separately.
The only minor difference is that previously no permission checking was
done, while vfs_tmpfile_open() will call may_open() with zero access mask
(i.e. no access is checked). Even if this would make a difference with
callers caps (don't see how it could, even in the LSM codepaths) cachfiles
raises caps before performing the tmpfile creation, so this extra
permission check will not result in any regression.

that to the two callers where it makes sense and add a WARN_ON() to the
third.
file_inode(file) is never NULL on an opened file. Remove check in

Do not open code cachefiles_do_unmark_inode_in_use() in

Fscache/CacheFiles used to serve as a local cache for a remote
networking fs. A new on-demand read mode will be introduced for
CacheFiles, which can boost the scenario where on-demand read semantics
are needed, e.g. container image distribution.
The essential difference between these two modes is seen when a cache
miss occurs: In the original mode, the netfs will fetch the data from
the remote server and then write it to the cache file; in on-demand
read mode, fetching the data and writing it into the cache is delegated
to a user daemon.
As the first step, notify the user daemon when looking up cookie. In
this case, an anonymous fd is sent to the user daemon, through which the
user daemon can write the fetched data to the cache file. Since the user
daemon may move the anonymous fd around, e.g. through dup(), an object
ID uniquely identifying the cache file is also attached.
Also add one advisory flag (FSCACHE_ADV_WANT_CACHE_SIZE) suggesting that
the cache file size shall be retrieved at runtime. This helps the
scenario where one cache file contains multiple netfs files, e.g. for
the purpose of deduplication. In this case, netfs itself has no idea the
size of the cache file, whilst the user daemon should give the hint on
it.

Unmark inode in use if error encountered. If the in-use flag leakage
occurs in cachefiles_open_file(), Cachefiles will complain "Inode
already in use" when later another cookie with the same index key is
looked up.
If the in-use flag leakage occurs in cachefiles_create_tmpfile(), though
the "Inode already in use" warning won't be triggered, fix the leakage
anyway.

Implement the wrangling of backing files, including the following pieces:
(1) Lookup and creation of a file on disk, using a tmpfile if the file
isn't yet present. The file is then opened, sized for DIO and the
file handle is attached to the cachefiles_object struct. The inode is
marked to indicate that it's in use by a kernel service.
(2) Invalidation of an object, creating a tmpfile and switching the file
pointer in the cachefiles object.
(3) Committing a file to disk, including setting the coherency xattr on it
and, if necessary, creating a hard link to it.
Note that this would be a good place to use Omar Sandoval's vfs_link()
with AT_LINK_REPLACE[1] as I may have to unlink an old file before I
can link a tmpfile into place.
(4) Withdrawal of open objects when a cache is being withdrawn or a cookie
is relinquished. This involves committing or discarding the file.

Implement the ability for the userspace daemon to try and cull a file or
directory in the cache. Two daemon commands are implemented:
(1) The "inuse" command. This queries if a file is in use or whether it
can be deleted. It checks the S_KERNEL_FILE flag on the inode
referred to by the specified filename.
(2) The "cull" command. This asks for a file or directory to be removed,
where removal means either unlinking it or moving it to the graveyard
directory for userspace to dismantle.

The various vfs_*() helpers are called by filesystems or by the vfs
itself to perform core operations such as create, link, mkdir, mknod, rename,
rmdir, tmpfile and unlink. Enable them to handle idmapped mounts. If the
inode is accessed through an idmapped mount map it into the
mount's user namespace and pass it down. Afterwards the checks and
operations are identical to non-idmapped mounts. If the initial user
namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see
identical behavior as before.
