afs: Simplify error handling

Simplify error handling a bit by moving it from the afs_addr_cursor struct
to the afs_operation and afs_vl_cursor structs and using the error
prioritisation function for accumulating errors from multiple sources (AFS
tries to rotate between multiple fileservers, some of which may be
inaccessible or in some state of offlinedness).

netfs: Fix gcc-12 warning by embedding vfs inode in netfs_i_context

While randstruct was satisfied with using an open-coded "void *" offset
cast for the netfs_i_context <-> inode casting, __builtin_object_size() as
used by FORTIFY_SOURCE was not as easily fooled. This was causing the
following complaint[1] from gcc v12:

In file included from include/linux/string.h:253,
from include/linux/ceph/ceph_debug.h:7,
from fs/ceph/inode.c:2:
In function 'fortify_memset_chk',
inlined from 'netfs_i_context_init' at include/linux/netfs.h:326:2,
inlined from 'ceph_alloc_inode' at fs/ceph/inode.c:463:2:
include/linux/fortify-string.h:242:25: warning: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
242 | __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by embedding a struct inode into struct netfs_i_context (which
should perhaps be renamed to struct netfs_inode). The struct inode
vfs_inode fields are then removed from the 9p, afs, ceph and cifs inode
structs and vfs_inode is then simply changed to "netfs.inode" in those
filesystems.

Further, rename netfs_i_context to netfs_inode, get rid of the
netfs_inode() function that converted a netfs_i_context pointer to an
inode pointer (that can now be done with &ctx->inode) and rename the
netfs_i_context() function to netfs_inode() (which is now a wrapper
around container_of()).

Most of the changes were done with:

perl -p -i -e 's/vfs_inode/netfs.inode/'g \
`git grep -l 'vfs_inode' -- fs/{9p,afs,ceph,cifs}/*.[ch]`

Kees suggested doing it with a pair structure[2] and a special
declarator to insert that into the network filesystem's inode
wrapper[3], but I think it's cleaner to embed it - and then it doesn't
matter if struct randomisation reorders things.

Dave Chinner suggested using a filesystem-specific VFS_I() function in
each filesystem to convert that filesystem's own inode wrapper struct
into the VFS inode struct[4].

Version #2:
- Fix a couple of missed name changes due to a disabled cifs option.
- Rename nfs_i_context to nfs_inode
- Use "netfs" instead of "nic" as the member name in per-fs inode wrapper
structs.

[ This also undoes commit 507160f46c55 ("netfs: gcc-12: temporarily
disable '-Wattribute-warning' for now") that is no longer needed ]

afs: Fix speculative status fetches

The generic/464 xfstest causes kAFS to emit occasional warnings of the
form:

kAFS: vnode modified {100055:8a} 30->31 YFS.StoreData64 (c=6015)

This indicates that the data version received back from the server did not
match the expected value (the DV should be incremented monotonically for
each individual modification op committed to a vnode).

What is happening is that a lookup call is doing a bulk status fetch
speculatively on a bunch of vnodes in a directory besides getting the
status of the vnode it's actually interested in. This is racing with a
StoreData operation (though it could also occur with, say, a MakeDir op).

On the client, a modification operation locks the vnode, but the bulk
status fetch only locks the parent directory, so no ordering is imposed
there (thereby avoiding an avenue to deadlock).

On the server, the StoreData op handler doesn't lock the vnode until it's
received all the request data, and downgrades the lock after committing the
data until it has finished sending change notifications to other clients -
which allows the status fetch to occur before it has finished.

This means that:

- a status fetch can access the target vnode either side of the exclusive
section of the modification

- the status fetch could start before the modification, yet finish after,
and vice-versa.

- the status fetch and the modification RPCs can complete in either order.

- the status fetch can return either the before or the after DV from the
modification.

- the status fetch might regress the locally cached DV.

Some of these are handled by the previous fix[1], but that's not sufficient
because it checks the DV it received against the DV it cached at the start
of the op, but the DV might've been updated in the meantime by a locally
generated modification op.

Fix this by the following means:

(1) Keep track of when we're performing a modification operation on a
vnode. This is done by marking vnode parameters with a 'modification'
note that causes the AFS_VNODE_MODIFYING flag to be set on the vnode
for the duration.

(2) Alter the speculation race detection to ignore speculative status
fetches if either the vnode is marked as being modified or the data
version number is not what we expected.

Note that whilst the "vnode modified" warning does get recovered from as it
causes the client to refetch the status at the next opportunity, it will
also invalidate the pagecache, so changes might get lost.

afs: Fix silly rename

Fix AFS's silly rename by the following means:

(1) Set the destination directory in afs_do_silly_rename() so as to avoid
misbehaviour and indicate that the directory data version will
increment by 1 so as to avoid warnings about unexpected changes in the
DV. Also indicate that the ctime should be updated to avoid xfstest
grumbling.

(2) Note when the server indicates that a directory changed more than we
expected (AFS_OPERATION_DIR_CONFLICT), indicating a conflict with a
third party change, checking on successful completion of unlink and
rename.

The problem is that the FS.RemoveFile RPC op doesn't report the status
of the unlinked file, though YFS.RemoveFile2 does. This can be
mitigated by the assumption that if the directory DV cranked by
exactly 1, we can be sure we removed one link from the file; further,
ordinarily in AFS, files cannot be hardlinked across directories, so
if we reduce nlink to 0, the file is deleted.

However, if the directory DV jumps by more than 1, we cannot know if a
third party intervened by adding or removing a link on the file we
just removed a link from.

The same also goes for any vnode that is at the destination of the
FS.Rename RPC op.

(3) Make afs_vnode_commit_status() apply the nlink drop inside the cb_lock
section along with the other attribute updates if ->op_unlinked is set
on the descriptor for the appropriate vnode.

(4) Issue a follow up status fetch to the unlinked file in the event of a
third party conflict that makes it impossible for us to know if we
actually deleted the file or not.

(5) Provide a flag, AFS_VNODE_SILLY_DELETED, to make afs_getattr() lie to
the user about the nlink of a silly deleted file so that it appears as
0, not 1.

Found with the generic/035 and generic/084 xfstests.

afs: Fix use of afs_check_for_remote_deletion()

afs_check_for_remote_deletion() checks to see if error ENOENT is returned
by the server in response to an operation and, if so, marks the primary
vnode as having been deleted as the FID is no longer valid.

However, it's being called from the operation success functions, where no
abort has happened - and if an inline abort is recorded, it's handled by
afs_vnode_commit_status().

Fix this by actually calling the operation aborted method if provided and
having that point to afs_check_for_remote_deletion().

afs: Build an abstraction around an "operation" concept

Turn the afs_operation struct into the main way that most fileserver
operations are managed. Various things are added to the struct, including
the following:

(1) All the parameters and results of the relevant operations are moved
into it, removing corresponding fields from the afs_call struct.
afs_call gets a pointer to the op.

(2) The target volume is made the main focus of the operation, rather than
the target vnode(s), and a bunch of op->vnode->volume are made
op->volume instead.

(3) Two vnode records are defined (op->file[]) for the vnode(s) involved
in most operations. The vnode record (struct afs_vnode_param)
contains:

- The vnode pointer.

- The fid of the vnode to be included in the parameters or that was
returned in the reply (eg. FS.MakeDir).

- The status and callback information that may be returned in the
reply about the vnode.

- Callback break and data version tracking for detecting
simultaneous third-parth changes.

(4) Pointers to dentries to be updated with new inodes.

(5) An operations table pointer. The table includes pointers to functions
for issuing AFS and YFS-variant RPCs, handling the success and abort
of an operation and handling post-I/O-lock local editing of a
directory.

To make this work, the following function restructuring is made:

(A) The rotation loop that issues calls to fileservers that can be found
in each function that wants to issue an RPC (such as afs_mkdir()) is
extracted out into common code, in a new file called fs_operation.c.

(B) The rotation loops, such as the one in afs_mkdir(), are replaced with
a much smaller piece of code that allocates an operation, sets the
parameters and then calls out to the common code to do the actual
work.

(C) The code for handling the success and failure of an operation are
moved into operation functions (as (5) above) and these are called
from the core code at appropriate times.

(D) The pseudo inode getting stuff used by the dynamic root code is moved
over into dynroot.c.

(E) struct afs_iget_data is absorbed into the operation struct and
afs_iget() expects to be given an op pointer and a vnode record.

(F) Point (E) doesn't work for the root dir of a volume, but we know the
FID in advance (it's always vnode 1, unique 1), so a separate inode
getter, afs_root_iget(), is provided to special-case that.

(G) The inode status init/update functions now also take an op and a vnode
record.

(H) The RPC marshalling functions now, for the most part, just take an
afs_operation struct as their only argument. All the data they need
is held there. The result delivery functions write their answers
there as well.

(I) The call is attached to the operation and then the operation core does
the waiting.

And then the new operation code is, for the moment, made to just initialise
the operation, get the appropriate vnode I/O locks and do the same rotation
loop as before.

This lays the foundation for the following changes in the future:

(*) Overhauling the rotation (again).

(*) Support for asynchronous I/O, where the fileserver rotation must be
done asynchronously also.

afs: Fix race between post-modification dir edit and readdir/d_revalidate

AFS directories are retained locally as a structured file, with lookup
being effected by a local search of the file contents. When a modification
(such as mkdir) happens, the dir file content is modified locally rather
than redownloading the directory.

The directory contents are accessed in a number of ways, with a number of
different locks schemes:

(1) Download of contents - dvnode->validate_lock/write in afs_read_dir().

(2) Lookup and readdir - dvnode->validate_lock/read in afs_dir_iterate(),
downgrading from (1) if necessary.

(3) d_revalidate of child dentry - dvnode->validate_lock/read in
afs_do_lookup_one() downgrading from (1) if necessary.

(4) Edit of dir after modification - page locks on individual dir pages.

Unfortunately, because (4) uses different locking scheme to (1) - (3),
nothing protects against the page being scanned whilst the edit is
underway. Even download is not safe as it doesn't lock the pages - relying
instead on the validate_lock to serialise as a whole (the theory being that
directory contents are treated as a block and always downloaded as a
block).

Fix this by write-locking dvnode->validate_lock around the edits. Care
must be taken in the rename case as there may be two different dirs - but
they need not be locked at the same time. In any case, once the lock is
taken, the directory version must be rechecked, and the edit skipped if a
later version has been downloaded by revalidation (there can't have been
any local changes because the VFS holds the inode lock, but there can have
been remote changes).

fsnotify: move fsnotify_nameremove() hook out of d_delete()

d_delete() was piggy backed for the fsnotify_nameremove() hook when
in fact not all callers of d_delete() care about fsnotify events.

For all callers of d_delete() that may be interested in fsnotify events,
we made sure to call one of fsnotify_{unlink,rmdir}() hooks before
calling d_delete().

Now we can move the fsnotify_nameremove() call from d_delete() to the
fsnotify_{unlink,rmdir}() hooks.

Two explicit calls to fsnotify_nameremove() from nfs/afs sillyrename
are also removed. This will cause a change of behavior - nfs/afs will
NOT generate an fsnotify delete event when renaming over a positive
dentry. This change is desirable, because it is consistent with the
behavior of all other filesystems.

afs: Fix application of status and callback to be under same lock

When applying the status and callback in the response of an operation,
apply them in the same critical section so that there's no race between
checking the callback state and checking status-dependent state (such as
the data version).

Fix this by:

(1) Allocating a joint {status,callback} record (afs_status_cb) before
calling the RPC function for each vnode for which the RPC reply
contains a status or a status plus a callback. A flag is set in the
record to indicate if a callback was actually received.

(2) These records are passed into the RPC functions to be filled in. The
afs_decode_status() and yfs_decode_status() functions are removed and
the cb_lock is no longer taken.

(3) xdr_decode_AFSFetchStatus() and xdr_decode_YFSFetchStatus() no longer
update the vnode.

(4) xdr_decode_AFSCallBack() and xdr_decode_YFSCallBack() no longer update
the vnode.

(5) vnodes, expected data-version numbers and callback break counters
(cb_break) no longer need to be passed to the reply delivery
functions.

Note that, for the moment, the file locking functions still need
access to both the call and the vnode at the same time.

(6) afs_vnode_commit_status() is now given the cb_break value and the
expected data_version and the task of applying the status and the
callback to the vnode are now done here.

This is done under a single taking of vnode->cb_lock.

(7) afs_pages_written_back() is now called by afs_store_data() rather than
by the reply delivery function.

afs_pages_written_back() has been moved to before the call point and
is now given the first and last page numbers rather than a pointer to
the call.

(8) The indicator from YFS.RemoveFile2 as to whether the target file
actually got removed (status.abort_code == VNOVNODE) rather than
merely dropping a link is now checked in afs_unlink rather than in
xdr_decode_YFSFetchStatus().

Supplementary fixes:

(*) afs_cache_permit() now gets the caller_access mask from the
afs_status_cb object rather than picking it out of the vnode's status
record. afs_fetch_status() returns caller_access through its argument
list for this purpose also.

(*) afs_inode_init_from_status() now uses a write lock on cb_lock rather
than a read lock and now sets the callback inside the same critical
section.

afs: Make some RPC operations non-interruptible

Make certain RPC operations non-interruptible, including:

(*) Set attributes
(*) Store data

We don't want to get interrupted during a flush on close, flush on
unlock, writeback or an inode update, leaving us in a state where we
still need to do the writeback or update.

(*) Extend lock
(*) Release lock

We don't want to get lock extension interrupted as the file locks on
the server are time-limited. Interruption during lock release is less
of an issue since the lock is time-limited, but it's better to
complete the release to avoid a several-minute wait to recover it.

*Setting* the lock isn't a problem if it's interrupted since we can
just return to the user and tell them they were interrupted - at
which point they can elect to retry.

(*) Silly unlink

We want to remove silly unlink files if we can, rather than leaving
them for the salvager to clear up.

Note that whilst these calls are no longer interruptible, they do have
timeouts on them, so if the server stops responding the call will fail with
something like ETIME or ECONNRESET.

Without this, the following:

kAFS: Unexpected error from FS.StoreData -512

appears in dmesg when a pending store data gets interrupted and some
processes may just hang.

Additionally, make the code that checks/updates the server record ignore
failure due to interruption if the main call is uninterruptible and if the
server has an address list. The next op will check it again since the
expiration time on the old list has past.
