fuse: fix wrong ff->iomode state changes from parallel dio write

There is a confusion with fuse_file_uncached_io_{start,end} interface.
These helpers do two things when called from passthrough open()/release():
1. Take/drop negative refcount of fi->iocachectr (inode uncached io mode)
2. State change ff->iomode IOM_NONE <-> IOM_UNCACHED (file uncached open)

The calls from parallel dio write path need to take a reference on
fi->iocachectr, but they should not be changing ff->iomode state, because
in this case, the fi->iocachectr reference does not stick around until file
release().

Factor out helpers fuse_inode_uncached_io_{start,end}, to be used from
parallel dio write path and rename fuse_file_*cached_io_{start,end} helpers
to fuse_file_*cached_io_{open,release} to clarify the difference.

fuse: get rid of ff->readdir.lock

The same protection is provided by file->f_pos_lock.

Note, this relies on the fact that file->f_mode has FMODE_ATOMIC_POS.
This flag is cleared by stream_open(), which would prevent locking of
f_pos_lock.

Prior to commit 7de64d521bf9 ("fuse: break up fuse_open_common()")
FOPEN_STREAM on a directory would cause stream_open() to be called.
After this commit this is not done anymore, so f_pos_lock will always
be locked.

fuse: Fix missing FOLL_PIN for direct-io

Our user space filesystem relies on fuse to provide POSIX interface.
In our test, a known string is written into a file and the content
is read back later to verify correct data returned. We observed wrong
data returned in read buffer in rare cases although correct data are
stored in our filesystem.

Fuse kernel module calls iov_iter_get_pages2() to get the physical
pages of the user-space read buffer passed in read(). The pages are
not pinned to avoid page migration. When page migration occurs, the
consequence are two-folds.

1) Applications do not receive correct data in read buffer.
2) fuse kernel writes data into a wrong place.

Using iov_iter_extract_pages() to pin pages fixes the issue in our
test.

An auxiliary variable "struct page **pt_pages" is used in the patch
to prepare the 2nd parameter for iov_iter_extract_pages() since
iov_iter_get_pages2() uses a different type for the 2nd parameter.

[SzM] add iov_iter_extract_will_pin(ii) and unpin only if true.

fuse: implement passthrough for mmap

An mmap request for a file open in passthrough mode, maps the memory
directly to the backing file.

An mmap of a file in direct io mode, usually uses cached mmap and puts
the inode in caching io mode, which denies new passthrough opens of that
inode, because caching io mode is conflicting with passthrough io mode.

For the same reason, trying to mmap a direct io file, while there is
a passthrough file open on the same inode will fail with -ENODEV.

An mmap of a file in direct io mode, also needs to wait for parallel
dio writes in-progress to complete.

If a passthrough file is opened, while an mmap of another direct io
file is waiting for parallel dio writes to complete, the wait is aborted
and mmap fails with -ENODEV.

A FUSE server that uses passthrough and direct io opens on the same inode
that may also be mmaped, is advised to provide a backing fd also for the
files that are open in direct io mode (i.e. use the flags combination
FOPEN_DIRECT_IO | FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH), so that mmap will always use the
backing file, even if read/write do not passthrough.

fuse: implement open in passthrough mode

After getting a backing file id with FUSE_DEV_IOC_BACKING_OPEN ioctl,
a FUSE server can reply to an OPEN request with flag FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH
and the backing file id.

The FUSE server should reuse the same backing file id for all the open
replies of the same FUSE inode and open will fail (with -EIO) if a the
server attempts to open the same inode with conflicting io modes or to
setup passthrough to two different backing files for the same FUSE inode.
Using the same backing file id for several different inodes is allowed.

Opening a new file with FOPEN_DIRECT_IO for an inode that is already
open for passthrough is allowed, but only if the FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH flag
and correct backing file id are specified as well.

The read/write IO of such files will not use passthrough operations to
the backing file, but mmap, which does not support direct_io, will use
the backing file insead of using the page cache as it always did.

Even though all FUSE passthrough files of the same inode use the same
backing file as a backing inode reference, each FUSE file opens a unique
instance of a backing_file object to store the FUSE path that was used
to open the inode and the open flags of the specific open file.

The per-file, backing_file object is released along with the FUSE file.
The inode associated fuse_backing object is released when the last FUSE
passthrough file of that inode is released AND when the backing file id
is closed by the server using the FUSE_DEV_IOC_BACKING_CLOSE ioctl.

with the optional backing_id member.

This will be used for setting up passthrough to backing file on open
reply with FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH flag and a valid backing_id.

Opening a file in passthrough mode may fail for several reasons, such as
missing capability, conflicting open flags or inode in caching mode.
Return EIO from fuse_file_io_open() in those cases.

The combination of FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH and FOPEN_DIRECT_IO is allowed -
it mean that read/write operations will go directly to the server,
but mmap will be done to the backing file.

fuse: implement ioctls to manage backing files

FUSE server calls the FUSE_DEV_IOC_BACKING_OPEN ioctl with a backing file
descriptor. If the call succeeds, a backing file identifier is returned.

A later change will be using this backing file id in a reply to OPEN
request with the flag FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH to setup passthrough of file
operations on the open FUSE file to the backing file.

The FUSE server should call FUSE_DEV_IOC_BACKING_CLOSE ioctl to close the
backing file by its id.

This can be done at any time, but if an open reply with FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH
flag is still in progress, the open may fail if the backing file is
closed before the fuse file was opened.

Setting up backing files requires a server with CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges.
For the backing file to be successfully setup, the backing file must
implement both read_iter and write_iter file operations.

The limitation on the level of filesystem stacking allowed for the
backing file is enforced before setting up the backing file.

fuse: allow parallel dio writes with FUSE_DIRECT_IO_ALLOW_MMAP

Instead of denying caching mode on parallel dio open, deny caching
open only while parallel dio are in-progress and wait for in-progress
parallel dio writes before entering inode caching io mode.

This allows executing parallel dio when inode is not in caching mode
even if shared mmap is allowed, but no mmaps have been performed on
the inode in question.

An mmap on direct_io file now waits for all in-progress parallel dio
writes to complete, so parallel dio writes together with
FUSE_DIRECT_IO_ALLOW_MMAP is enabled by this commit.

fuse: introduce inode io modes

The fuse inode io mode is determined by the mode of its open files/mmaps
and parallel dio opens and expressed in the value of fi->iocachectr:

> 0 - caching io: files open in caching mode or mmap on direct_io file
< 0 - parallel dio: direct io mode with parallel dio writes enabled
== 0 - direct io: no files open in caching mode and no files mmaped

Note that iocachectr value of 0 might become positive or negative,
while non-parallel dio is getting processed.

direct_io mmap uses page cache, so first mmap will mark the file as
ff->io_opened and increment fi->iocachectr to enter the caching io mode.

If the server opens the file in caching mode while it is already open
for parallel dio or vice versa the open fails.

This allows executing parallel dio when inode is not in caching mode
and no mmaps have been performed on the inode in question.

fuse: share lookup state between submount and its parent

Fuse submounts do not perform a lookup for the nodeid that they inherit
from their parent. Instead, the code decrements the nlookup on the
submount's fuse_inode when it is instantiated, and no forget is
performed when a submount root is evicted.

Trouble arises when the submount's parent is evicted despite the
submount itself being in use. In this author's case, the submount was
in a container and deatched from the initial mount namespace via a
MNT_DEATCH operation. When memory pressure triggered the shrinker, the
inode from the parent was evicted, which triggered enough forgets to
render the submount's nodeid invalid.

Since submounts should still function, even if their parent goes away,
solve this problem by sharing refcounted state between the parent and
its submount. When all of the references on this shared state reach
zero, it's safe to forget the final lookup of the fuse nodeid.

fuse: cache btime

Not all inode attributes are supported by all filesystems, but for the
basic stats (which are returned by stat(2) and friends) all of them will
have some value, even if that doesn't reflect a real attribute of the file.

Btime is different, in that filesystems are free to report or not report a
value in statx. If the value is available, then STATX_BTIME bit is set in
stx_mask.

When caching the value of btime, remember the availability of the attribute
as well as the value (if available). This is done by using the
FUSE_I_BTIME bit in fuse_inode->state to indicate availability, while using
fuse_inode->inval_mask & STATX_BTIME to indicate the state of the cache
itself (i.e. set if cache is invalid, and cleared if cache is valid).

fuse: implement statx

Allow querying btime. When btime is requested in mask, then FUSE_STATX
request is sent. Otherwise keep using FUSE_GETATTR.

The userspace interface for statx matches that of the statx(2) API.
However there are limitations on how this interface is used:

- returned basic stats and btime are used, stx_attributes, etc. are
ignored

- always query basic stats and btime, regardless of what was requested

- requested sync type is ignored, the default is passed to the server

- if server returns with some attributes missing from the result_mask,
then no attributes will be cached

- btime is not cached yet (next patch will fix that)

For new inodes initialize fi->inval_mask to "all invalid", instead of "all
valid" as previously. Also only clear basic stats from inval_mask when
caching attributes. This will result in the caching logic not thinking
that btime is cached.

fuse: add a new fuse init flag to relax restrictions in no cache mode

FOPEN_DIRECT_IO is usually set by fuse daemon to indicate need of strong
coherency, e.g. network filesystems. Thus shared mmap is disabled since it
leverages page cache and may write to it, which may cause inconsistence.

But FOPEN_DIRECT_IO can be used not for coherency but to reduce memory
footprint as well, e.g. reduce guest memory usage with virtiofs.
Therefore, add a new fuse init flag FUSE_DIRECT_IO_RELAX to relax
restrictions in that mode, currently, it allows shared mmap. One thing to
note is to make sure it doesn't break coherency in your use case.

fuse: fixes after adapting to new posix acl api

This cycle we ported all filesystems to the new posix acl api. While
looking at further simplifications in this area to remove the last
remnants of the generic dummy posix acl handlers we realized that we
regressed fuse daemons that don't set FUSE_POSIX_ACL but still make use
of posix acls.

With the change to a dedicated posix acl api interacting with posix acls
doesn't go through the old xattr codepaths anymore and instead only
relies the get acl and set acl inode operations.

Before this change fuse daemons that don't set FUSE_POSIX_ACL were able
to get and set posix acl albeit with two caveats. First, that posix acls
aren't cached. And second, that they aren't used for permission checking
in the vfs.

We regressed that use-case as we currently refuse to retrieve any posix
acls if they aren't enabled via FUSE_POSIX_ACL. So older fuse daemons
would see a change in behavior.

We can restore the old behavior in multiple ways. We could change the
new posix acl api and look for a dedicated xattr handler and if we find
one prefer that over the dedicated posix acl api. That would break the
consistency of the new posix acl api so we would very much prefer not to
do that.

We could introduce a new ACL_*_CACHE sentinel that would instruct the
vfs permission checking codepath to not call into the filesystem and
ignore acls.

But a more straightforward fix for v6.2 is to do the same thing that
Overlayfs does and give fuse a separate get acl method for permission
checking. Overlayfs uses this to express different needs for vfs
permission lookup and acl based retrieval via the regular system call
path as well. Let fuse do the same for now. This way fuse can continue
to refuse to retrieve posix acls for daemons that don't set
FUSE_POSXI_ACL for permission checking while allowing a fuse server to
retrieve it via the usual system calls.

In the future, we could extend the get acl inode operation to not just
pass a simple boolean to indicate rcu lookup but instead make it a flag
argument. Then in addition to passing the information that this is an
rcu lookup to the filesystem we could also introduce a flag that tells
the filesystem that this is a request from the vfs to use these acls for
permission checking. Then fuse could refuse the get acl request for
permission checking when the daemon doesn't have FUSE_POSIX_ACL set in
the same get acl method. This would also help Overlayfs and allow us to
remove the second method for it as well.

But since that change is more invasive as we need to update the get acl
inode operation for multiple filesystems we should not do this as a fix
for v6.2. Instead we will do this for the v6.3 merge window.

Fwiw, since posix acls are now always correctly translated in the new
posix acl api we could also allow them to be used for daemons without
FUSE_POSIX_ACL that are not mounted on the host. But this is behavioral
change and again if dones should be done for v6.3. For now, let's just
restore the original behavior.

A nice side-effect of this change is that for fuse daemons with and
without FUSE_POSIX_ACL the same code is used for posix acls in a
backwards compatible way. This also means we can remove the legacy xattr
handlers completely. We've also added comments to explain the expected
behavior for daemons without FUSE_POSIX_ACL into the code.

fuse: Rearrange fuse_allow_current_process checks

This is a followup to a previous commit of mine [0], which added the
allow_sys_admin_access && capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) check. This patch
rearranges the order of checks in fuse_allow_current_process without
changing functionality.

Commit 9ccf47b26b73 ("fuse: Add module param for CAP_SYS_ADMIN access

capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) check to the beginning of the function, with the
reasoning that allow_sys_admin_access should be an 'escape hatch' for users
with CAP_SYS_ADMIN, allowing them to skip any subsequent checks.

However, placing this new check first results in many capable() calls when
allow_sys_admin_access is set, where another check would've also returned
1. This can be problematic when a BPF program is tracing capable() calls.

At Meta we ran into such a scenario recently. On a host where
allow_sys_admin_access is set but most of the FUSE access is from processes
which would pass other checks - i.e. they don't need CAP_SYS_ADMIN 'escape
hatch' - this results in an unnecessary capable() call for each fs op. We
also have a daemon tracing capable() with BPF and doing some data
collection, so tracing these extraneous capable() calls has the potential
to regress performance for an application doing many FUSE ops.

So rearrange the order of these checks such that CAP_SYS_ADMIN 'escape
hatch' is checked last. Add a small helper, fuse_permissible_uidgid, to
make the logic easier to understand. Previously, if allow_other is set on
the fuse_conn, uid/git checking doesn't happen as current_in_userns result
is returned. These semantics are maintained here: fuse_permissible_uidgid
check only happens if allow_other is not set.

fuse: add "expire only" mode to FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY

Add a flag to entry expiration that lets the filesystem expire a dentry
without kicking it out from the cache immediately.

This makes a difference for overmounted dentries, where plain invalidation
would detach all submounts before dropping the dentry from the cache. If
only expiry is set on the dentry, then any overmounts are left alone and
until ->d_revalidate() is called.

Note: ->d_revalidate() is not called for the case of following a submount,
so invalidation will only be triggered for the non-overmounted case. The
dentry could also be mounted in a different mount instance, in which case
any submounts will still be detached.

fs: pass dentry to set acl method

The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic
xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to
interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to
userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to
understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of
making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are
building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode
operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths
easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].

Since some filesystem rely on the dentry being available to them when
setting posix acls (e.g., 9p and cifs) they cannot rely on set acl inode
operation. But since ->set_acl() is required in order to use the generic
posix acl xattr handlers filesystems that do not implement this inode
operation cannot use the handler and need to implement their own
dedicated posix acl handlers.

Update the ->set_acl() inode method to take a dentry argument. This
allows all filesystems to rely on ->set_acl().

As far as I can tell all codepaths can be switched to rely on the dentry
instead of just the inode. Note that the original motivation for passing
the dentry separate from the inode instead of just the dentry in the
xattr handlers was because of security modules that call
security_d_instantiate(). This hook is called during
d_instantiate_new(), d_add(), __d_instantiate_anon(), and
d_splice_alias() to initialize the inode's security context and possibly
to set security.* xattrs. Since this only affects security.* xattrs this
is completely irrelevant for posix acls.

fuse: fix pipe buffer lifetime for direct_io

In FOPEN_DIRECT_IO mode, fuse_file_write_iter() calls
fuse_direct_write_iter(), which normally calls fuse_direct_io(), which then
imports the write buffer with fuse_get_user_pages(), which uses
iov_iter_get_pages() to grab references to userspace pages instead of
actually copying memory.

On the filesystem device side, these pages can then either be read to
userspace (via fuse_dev_read()), or splice()d over into a pipe using
fuse_dev_splice_read() as pipe buffers with &nosteal_pipe_buf_ops.

This is wrong because after fuse_dev_do_read() unlocks the FUSE request,
the userspace filesystem can mark the request as completed, causing write()
to return. At that point, the userspace filesystem should no longer have
access to the pipe buffer.

Fix by copying pages coming from the user address space to new pipe
buffers.

fuse: mark inode DONT_CACHE when per inode DAX hint changes

When the per inode DAX hint changes while the file is still *opened*, it
is quite complicated and maybe fragile to dynamically change the DAX
state.

Hence mark the inode and corresponding dentries as DONE_CACHE once the
per inode DAX hint changes, so that the inode instance will be evicted
and freed as soon as possible once the file is closed and the last
reference to the inode is put. And then when the file gets reopened next
time, the new instantiated inode will reflect the new DAX state.

In summary, when the per inode DAX hint changes for an *opened* file, the
DAX state of the file won't be updated until this file is closed and
reopened later.

fuse: enable per inode DAX

DAX may be limited in some specific situation. When the number of usable
DAX windows is under watermark, the recalim routine will be triggered to
reclaim some DAX windows. It may have a negative impact on the
performance, since some processes may need to wait for DAX windows to be
recalimed and reused then. To mitigate the performance degradation, the
overall DAX window need to be expanded larger.

However, simply expanding the DAX window may not be a good deal in some
scenario. To maintain one DAX window chunk (i.e., 2MB in size), 32KB
(512 * 64 bytes) memory footprint will be consumed for page descriptors
inside guest, which is greater than the memory footprint if it uses
guest page cache when DAX disabled. Thus it'd better disable DAX for
those files smaller than 32KB, to reduce the demand for DAX window and
thus avoid the unworthy memory overhead.

Per inode DAX feature is introduced to address this issue, by offering a
finer grained control for dax to users, trying to achieve a balance
between performance and memory overhead.

The FUSE_ATTR_DAX flag in FUSE_LOOKUP reply is used to indicate whether
DAX should be enabled or not for corresponding file. Currently the state
whether DAX is enabled or not for the file is initialized only when
inode is instantiated.

fuse: send security context of inode on file

When a new inode is created, send its security context to server along with
creation request (FUSE_CREAT, FUSE_MKNOD, FUSE_MKDIR and FUSE_SYMLINK).
This gives server an opportunity to create new file and set security
context (possibly atomically). In all the configurations it might not be
possible to set context atomically.

Like nfs and ceph, use security_dentry_init_security() to dermine security
context of inode and send it with create, mkdir, mknod, and symlink
requests.

Following is the information sent to server.

fuse_sectx_header, fuse_secctx, xattr_name, security_context

- struct fuse_secctx_header
This contains total number of security contexts being sent and total
size of all the security contexts (including size of
fuse_secctx_header).

- struct fuse_secctx
This contains size of security context which follows this structure.
There is one fuse_secctx instance per security context.

- xattr name string
This string represents name of xattr which should be used while setting
security context.

- security context
This is the actual security context whose size is specified in
fuse_secctx struct.

Also add the FUSE_SECURITY_CTX flag for the `flags` field of the
fuse_init_out struct. When this flag is set the kernel will append the
security context for a newly created inode to the request (create, mkdir,
mknod, and symlink). The server is responsible for ensuring that the inode
appears atomically (preferrably) with the requested security context.

For example, If the server is using SELinux and backed by a "real" linux
file system that supports extended attributes it can write the security
context value to /proc/thread-self/attr/fscreate before making the syscall
to create the inode.

fuse: make sure reclaim doesn't write the inode

In writeback cache mode mtime/ctime updates are cached, and flushed to the
server using the ->write_inode() callback.

Closing the file will result in a dirty inode being immediately written,
but in other cases the inode can remain dirty after all references are
dropped. This result in the inode being written back from reclaim, which
can deadlock on a regular allocation while the request is being served.

The usual mechanisms (GFP_NOFS/PF_MEMALLOC*) don't work for FUSE, because
serving a request involves unrelated userspace process(es).

Instead do the same as for dirty pages: make sure the inode is written
before the last reference is gone.

- fallocate(2)/copy_file_range(2): these call file_update_time() or
file_modified(), so flush the inode before returning from the call

- unlink(2), link(2) and rename(2): these call fuse_update_ctime(), so

fuse: wait for writepages in syncfs

In case of fuse the MM subsystem doesn't guarantee that page writeback
completes by the time ->sync_fs() is called. This is because fuse
completes page writeback immediately to prevent DoS of memory reclaim by
the userspace file server.

This means that fuse itself must ensure that writes are synced before
sending the SYNCFS request to the server.

Introduce sync buckets, that hold a counter for the number of outstanding
write requests. On syncfs replace the current bucket with a new one and
wait until the old bucket's counter goes down to zero.

It is possible to have multiple syncfs calls in parallel, in which case
there could be more than one waited-on buckets. Descendant buckets must
not complete until the parent completes. Add a count to the child (new)
bucket until the (parent) old bucket completes.

Use RCU protection to dereference the current bucket and to wake up an
emptied bucket. Use fc->lock to protect against parallel assignments to
the current bucket.

This leaves just the counter to be a possible scalability issue. The
fc->num_waiting counter has a similar issue, so both should be addressed at
the same time.

fuse: fix illegal access to inode with reused nodeid

Server responds to LOOKUP and other ops (READDIRPLUS/CREATE/MKNOD/...)
with ourarg containing nodeid and generation.

If a fuse inode is found in inode cache with the same nodeid but different
generation, the existing fuse inode should be unhashed and marked "bad" and
a new inode with the new generation should be hashed instead.

This can happen, for example, with passhrough fuse filesystem that returns
the real filesystem ino/generation on lookup and where real inode numbers
can get recycled due to real files being unlinked not via the fuse
passthrough filesystem.

With current code, this situation will not be detected and an old fuse
dentry that used to point to an older generation real inode, can be used to
access a completely new inode, which should be accessed only via the new
dentry.

Note that because the FORGET message carries the nodeid w/o generation, the
server should wait to get FORGET counts for the nlookup counts of the old
and reused inodes combined, before it can free the resources associated to
that nodeid.

The creation of a submount is open-coded in fuse_dentry_automount().
This brings a lot of complexity and we recently had to fix bugs

Basically, this means coming up with a proper ->get_tree()

fc_mount().

The creation of the superblock for submounts is quite different from

virtiofs: propagate sync() to file server

Even if POSIX doesn't mandate it, linux users legitimately expect sync() to
flush all data and metadata to physical storage when it is located on the
same system. This isn't happening with virtiofs though: sync() inside the
guest returns right away even though data still needs to be flushed from
the host page cache.

This is easily demonstrated by doing the following in the guest:

$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/foo bs=1M count=5K ; strace -T -e sync sync
5120+0 records in
5120+0 records out
5368709120 bytes (5.4 GB, 5.0 GiB) copied, 5.22224 s, 1.0 GB/s
sync() = 0 <0.024068>

and start the following in the host when the 'dd' command completes
in the guest:

$ strace -T -e fsync /usr/bin/sync virtiofs/foo
fsync(3) = 0 <10.371640>

There are no good reasons not to honor the expected behavior of sync()
actually: it gives an unrealistic impression that virtiofs is super fast
and that data has safely landed on HW, which isn't the case obviously.

Implement a ->sync_fs() superblock operation that sends a new FUSE_SYNCFS
request type for this purpose. Provision a 64-bit placeholder for possible
future extensions. Since the file server cannot handle the wait == 0 case,
we skip it to avoid a gratuitous roundtrip. Note that this is
per-superblock: a FUSE_SYNCFS is send for the root mount and for each
submount.

Like with FUSE_FSYNC and FUSE_FSYNCDIR, lack of support for FUSE_SYNCFS in
the file server is treated as permanent success. This ensures
compatibility with older file servers: the client will get the current
behavior of sync() not being propagated to the file server.

Note that such an operation allows the file server to DoS sync(). Since a
typical FUSE file server is an untrusted piece of software running in
userspace, this is disabled by default. Only enable it with virtiofs for
now since virtiofsd is supposedly trusted by the guest kernel.

virtiofs: split requests that exceed virtqueue size

If an incoming FUSE request can't fit on the virtqueue, the request is
placed onto a workqueue so a worker can try to resubmit it later where
there will (hopefully) be space for it next time.

This is fine for requests that aren't larger than a virtqueue's maximum
capacity. However, if a request's size exceeds the maximum capacity of the
virtqueue (even if the virtqueue is empty), it will be doomed to a life of
being placed on the workqueue, removed, discovered it won't fit, and placed
on the workqueue yet again.

Furthermore, from section 2.6.5.3.1 (Driver Requirements: Indirect
Descriptors) of the virtio spec:

"A driver MUST NOT create a descriptor chain longer than the Queue
Size of the device."

To fix this, limit the number of pages FUSE will use for an overall
request. This way, each request can realistically fit on the virtqueue
when it is decomposed into a scattergather list and avoid violating section
2.6.5.3.1 of the virtio spec.

fuse: fix write deadlock

There are two modes for write(2) and friends in fuse:

a) write through (update page cache, send sync WRITE request to userspace)

b) buffered write (update page cache, async writeout later)

The write through method kept all the page cache pages locked that were
used for the request. Keeping more than one page locked is deadlock prone
and Qian Cai demonstrated this with trinity fuzzing.

The reason for keeping the pages locked is that concurrent mapped reads
shouldn't try to pull possibly stale data into the page cache.

For full page writes, the easy way to fix this is to make the cached page
be the authoritative source by marking the page PG_uptodate immediately.
After this the page can be safely unlocked, since mapped/cached reads will
take the written data from the cache.

Concurrent mapped writes will now cause data in the original WRITE request
to be updated; this however doesn't cause any data inconsistency and this
scenario should be exceedingly rare anyway.

If the WRITE request returns with an error in the above case, currently the
page is not marked uptodate; this means that a concurrent read will always
read consistent data. After this patch the page is uptodate between
writing to the cache and receiving the error: there's window where a cached
read will read the wrong data. While theoretically this could be a
regression, it is unlikely to be one in practice, since this is normal for
buffered writes.

In case of a partial page write to an already uptodate page the locking is
also unnecessary, with the above caveats.

Partial write of a not uptodate page still needs to be handled. One way
would be to read the complete page before doing the write. This is not
possible, since it might break filesystems that don't expect any READ
requests when the file was opened O_WRONLY.

The other solution is to serialize the synchronous write with reads from
the partial pages. The easiest way to do this is to keep the partial pages
locked. The problem is that a write() may involve two such pages (one head
and one tail). This patch fixes it by only locking the partial tail page.
If there's a partial head page as well, then split that off as a separate
WRITE request.

fuse: convert to fileattr

Since fuse just passes ioctl args through to/from server, converting to the
fileattr API is more involved, than most other filesystems.

Both .fileattr_set() and .fileattr_get() need to obtain an open file to
operate on. The simplest way is with the following sequence:

FUSE_OPEN
FUSE_IOCTL
FUSE_RELEASE

If this turns out to be a performance problem, it could be optimized for
the case when there's already a file (any file) open for the inode.

fuse: fix live lock in fuse_iget()

Commit 5d069dbe8aaf ("fuse: fix bad inode") replaced make_bad_inode()
in fuse_iget() with a private implementation fuse_make_bad().

The private implementation fails to remove the bad inode from inode
cache, so the retry loop with iget5_locked() finds the same bad inode
and marks it bad forever.

fs: make helpers idmap mount aware

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A
filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user
namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for
additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to
translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all
relevant helpers in earlier patches.

As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of
introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly
mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

fuse: fix bad inode

Jan Kara's analysis of the syzbot report (edited):

The reproducer opens a directory on FUSE filesystem, it then attaches
dnotify mark to the open directory. After that a fuse_do_getattr() call
finds that attributes returned by the server are inconsistent, and calls
make_bad_inode() which, among other things does:

inode->i_mode = S_IFREG;

This then confuses dnotify which doesn't tear down its structures
properly and eventually crashes.

Avoid calling make_bad_inode() on a live inode: switch to a private flag on
the fuse inode. Also add the test to ops which the bad_inode_ops would
have caught.

This bug goes back to the initial merge of fuse in 2.6.14...

fuse: introduce the notion of FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2

We already have FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV flag that says that file server will
remove suid/sgid/caps on truncate/chown/write. But that's little different
from what Linux VFS implements.

To be consistent with Linux VFS behavior what we want is.

- caps are always cleared on chown/write/truncate
- suid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID.
- sgid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID as well as file has group execute
permission.

As previous flag did not provide above semantics. Implement a V2 of the
protocol with above said constraints.

Server does not know if caller has CAP_FSETID or not. So for the case
of write()/truncate(), client will send information in special flag to
indicate whether to kill priviliges or not. These changes are in subsequent
patches.

FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 relies on WRITE being sent to server to clear
suid/sgid/security.capability. But with ->writeback_cache, WRITES are
cached in guest. So it is not recommended to use FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2
and writeback_cache together. Though it probably might be good enough
for lot of use cases.

The exact same result can be obtained by checking whether

fuse: implement crossmounts

FUSE servers can indicate crossmount points by setting FUSE_ATTR_SUBMOUNT
in fuse_attr.flags. The inode will then be marked as S_AUTOMOUNT, and the
.d_automount implementation creates a new submount at that location, so
that the submount gets a distinct st_dev value.

Note that all submounts get a distinct superblock and a distinct st_dev
value, so for virtio-fs, even if the same filesystem is mounted more than
once on the host, none of its mount points will have the same st_dev. We
need distinct superblocks because the superblock points to the root node,
but the different host mounts may show different trees (e.g. due to
submounts in some of them, but not in others).

Right now, this behavior is only enabled when fuse_conn.auto_submounts is
set, which is the case only for virtio-fs.

fuse: split fuse_mount off of fuse_conn

We want to allow submounts for the same fuse_conn, but with different
superblocks so that each of the submounts has its own device ID. To do
so, we need to split all mount-specific information off of fuse_conn
into a new fuse_mount structure, so that multiple mounts can share a
single fuse_conn.

We need to take care only to perform connection-level actions once (i.e.
when the fuse_conn and thus the first fuse_mount are established, or
when the last fuse_mount and thus the fuse_conn are destroyed). For
example, fuse_sb_destroy() must invoke fuse_send_destroy() until the
last superblock is released.

To do so, we keep track of which fuse_mount is the root mount and
perform all fuse_conn-level actions only when this fuse_mount is
involved.

virtiofs: serialize truncate/punch_hole and dax fault path

Currently in fuse we don't seem have any lock which can serialize fault
path with truncate/punch_hole path. With dax support I need one for
following reasons.

1. Dax requirement

DAX fault code relies on inode size being stable for the duration of
fault and want to serialize with truncate/punch_hole and they explicitly
mention it.

static vm_fault_t dax_iomap_pmd_fault(struct vm_fault *vmf, pfn_t *pfnp,
const struct iomap_ops *ops)
/*
* Check whether offset isn't beyond end of file now. Caller is
* supposed to hold locks serializing us with truncate / punch hole so
* this is a reliable test.
*/
max_pgoff = DIV_ROUND_UP(i_size_read(inode), PAGE_SIZE);

2. Make sure there are no users of pages being truncated/punch_hole

get_user_pages() might take references to page and then do some DMA
to said pages. Filesystem might truncate those pages without knowing
that a DMA is in progress or some I/O is in progress. So use
dax_layout_busy_page() to make sure there are no such references
and I/O is not in progress on said pages before moving ahead with
truncation.

3. Limitation of kvm page fault error reporting

If we are truncating file on host first and then removing mappings in
guest lateter (truncate page cache etc), then this could lead to a
problem with KVM. Say a mapping is in place in guest and truncation
happens on host. Now if guest accesses that mapping, then host will
take a fault and kvm will either exit to qemu or spin infinitely.

IOW, before we do truncation on host, we need to make sure that guest
inode does not have any mapping in that region or whole file.

4. virtiofs memory range reclaim

Soon I will introduce the notion of being able to reclaim dax memory
ranges from a fuse dax inode. There also I need to make sure that
no I/O or fault is going on in the reclaimed range and nobody is using
it so that range can be reclaimed without issues.

Currently if we take inode lock, that serializes read/write. But it does
not do anything for faults. So I add another semaphore fuse_inode->i_mmap_sem
for this purpose. It can be used to serialize with faults.

As of now, I am adding taking this semaphore only in dax fault path and
not regular fault path because existing code does not have one. May
be existing code can benefit from it as well to take care of some
races, but that we can fix later if need be. For now, I am just focussing
only on DAX path which is new path.

Also added logic to take fuse_inode->i_mmap_sem in
truncate/punch_hole/open(O_TRUNC) path to make sure file truncation and
fuse dax fault are mutually exlusive and avoid all the above problems.

virtiofs: schedule blocking async replies in separate worker

In virtiofs (unlike in regular fuse) processing of async replies is
serialized. This can result in a deadlock in rare corner cases when
there's a circular dependency between the completion of two or more async
replies.

Such a deadlock can be reproduced with xfstests:generic/503 if TEST_DIR ==
SCRATCH_MNT (which is a misconfiguration):

- Process A is waiting for page lock in worker thread context and blocked
(virtio_fs_requests_done_work()).
- Process B is holding page lock and waiting for pending writes to
finish (fuse_wait_on_page_writeback()).
- Write requests are waiting in virtqueue and can't complete because
worker thread is blocked on page lock (process A).

Fix this by creating a unique work_struct for each async reply that can
block (O_DIRECT read).

virtio-fs: add virtiofs filesystem

Add a basic file system module for virtio-fs. This does not yet contain
shared data support between host and guest or metadata coherency speedups.
However it is already significantly faster than virtio-9p.

Design Overview
===============

With the goal of designing something with better performance and local file
system semantics, a bunch of ideas were proposed.

- Use fuse protocol (instead of 9p) for communication between guest and
host. Guest kernel will be fuse client and a fuse server will run on
host to serve the requests.

- For data access inside guest, mmap portion of file in QEMU address space
and guest accesses this memory using dax. That way guest page cache is
bypassed and there is only one copy of data (on host). This will also
enable mmap(MAP_SHARED) between guests.

- For metadata coherency, there is a shared memory region which contains
version number associated with metadata and any guest changing metadata
updates version number and other guests refresh metadata on next access.
This is yet to be implemented.

How virtio-fs differs from existing approaches
==============================================

The unique idea behind virtio-fs is to take advantage of the co-location of
the virtual machine and hypervisor to avoid communication (vmexits).

DAX allows file contents to be accessed without communication with the
hypervisor. The shared memory region for metadata avoids communication in
the common case where metadata is unchanged.

By replacing expensive communication with cheaper shared memory accesses,
we expect to achieve better performance than approaches based on network
file system protocols. In addition, this also makes it easier to achieve
local file system semantics (coherency).

These techniques are not applicable to network file system protocols since
the communications channel is bypassed by taking advantage of shared memory
on a local machine. This is why we decided to build virtio-fs rather than
focus on 9P or NFS.

Caching Modes
=============

Like virtio-9p, different caching modes are supported which determine the
coherency level as well. The “cache=FOO” and “writeback” options control
the level of coherence between the guest and host filesystems.

- cache=none
metadata, data and pathname lookup are not cached in guest. They are
always fetched from host and any changes are immediately pushed to host.

- cache=always
metadata, data and pathname lookup are cached in guest and never expire.

- cache=auto
metadata and pathname lookup cache expires after a configured amount of
time (default is 1 second). Data is cached while the file is open
(close to open consistency).

- writeback/no_writeback
These options control the writeback strategy. If writeback is disabled,
then normal writes will immediately be synchronized with the host fs.
If writeback is enabled, then writes may be cached in the guest until
the file is closed or an fsync(2) performed. This option has no effect

fuse: separate fuse device allocation and installation in fuse_conn

As of now fuse_dev_alloc() both allocates a fuse device and installs it in
fuse_conn list. fuse_dev_alloc() can fail if fuse_device allocation fails.

virtio-fs needs to initialize multiple fuse devices (one per virtio queue).
It initializes one fuse device as part of call to fuse_fill_super_common()
and rest of the devices are allocated and installed after that.

But, we can't afford to fail after calling fuse_fill_super_common() as we
don't have a way to undo all the actions done by fuse_fill_super_common().
So to avoid failures after the call to fuse_fill_super_common(),
pre-allocate all fuse devices early and install them into fuse connection
later.

This patch provides two separate helpers for fuse device allocation and
fuse device installation in fuse_conn.

fuse: add fuse_iqueue_ops callbacks

The /dev/fuse device uses fiq->waitq and fasync to signal that requests are
available. These mechanisms do not apply to virtio-fs. This patch
introduces callbacks so alternative behavior can be used.

Note that queue_interrupt() changes along these lines:

spin_lock(&fiq->waitq.lock);
wake_up_locked(&fiq->waitq);
+ kill_fasync(&fiq->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
spin_unlock(&fiq->waitq.lock);
- kill_fasync(&fiq->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);

Since queue_request() and queue_forget() also call kill_fasync() inside
the spinlock this should be safe.

fuse: fix deadlock with aio poll and fuse_iqueue::waitq.lock

When IOCB_CMD_POLL is used on the FUSE device, aio_poll() disables IRQs
and takes kioctx::ctx_lock, then fuse_iqueue::waitq.lock.

This may have to wait for fuse_iqueue::waitq.lock to be released by one
of many places that take it with IRQs enabled. Since the IRQ handler
may take kioctx::ctx_lock, lockdep reports that a deadlock is possible.

Fix it by protecting the state of struct fuse_iqueue with a separate
spinlock, and only accessing fuse_iqueue::waitq using the versions of
the waitqueue functions which do IRQ-safe locking internally.

Reproducer:

#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mount.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <linux/aio_abi.h>

int fd = open("/dev/fuse", O_RDWR);
aio_context_t ctx = 0;
struct iocb cb = { .aio_lio_opcode = IOCB_CMD_POLL, .aio_fildes = fd };
struct iocb *cbp = &cb;

sprintf(opts, "fd=%d,rootmode=040000,user_id=0,group_id=0", fd);
mkdir("mnt", 0700);

# ad2ba64d 27-Mar-2019 Kirill Smelkov <kirr@nexedi.com>

fuse: allow filesystems to have precise control over data cache

On networked filesystems file data can be changed externally. FUSE
provides notification messages for filesystem to inform kernel that
metadata or data region of a file needs to be invalidated in local page
cache. That provides the basis for filesystem implementations to invalidate
kernel cache explicitly based on observed filesystem-specific events.

FUSE has also "automatic" invalidation mode(*) when the kernel
automatically invalidates data cache of a file if it sees mtime change. It
also automatically invalidates whole data cache of a file if it sees file
size being changed.

The automatic mode has corresponding capability - FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA.
However, due to probably historical reason, that capability controls only
whether mtime change should be resulting in automatic invalidation or
not. A change in file size always results in invalidating whole data cache
of a file irregardless of whether FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA was negotiated(+).

The filesystem I write[1] represents data arrays stored in networked
database as local files suitable for mmap. It is read-only filesystem -
changes to data are committed externally via database interfaces and the
filesystem only glues data into contiguous file streams suitable for mmap
and traditional array processing. The files are big - starting from
hundreds gigabytes and more. The files change regularly, and frequently by
data being appended to their end. The size of files thus changes
frequently.

If a file was accessed locally and some part of its data got into page
cache, we want that data to stay cached unless there is memory pressure, or
unless corresponding part of the file was actually changed. However current
FUSE behaviour - when it sees file size change - is to invalidate the whole
file. The data cache of the file is thus completely lost even on small size
change, and despite that the filesystem server is careful to accurately
translate database changes into FUSE invalidation messages to kernel.

Let's fix it: if a filesystem, through new FUSE_EXPLICIT_INVAL_DATA
capability, indicates to kernel that it is fully responsible for data cache
invalidation, then the kernel won't invalidate files data cache on size
change and only truncate that cache to new size in case the size decreased.

(*) see 72d0d248ca "fuse: add FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA init flag",
eed2179efe "fuse: invalidate inode mapping if mtime changes"

(+) in writeback mode the kernel does not invalidate data cache on file
size change, but neither it allows the filesystem to set the size due to
external event (see 8373200b12 "fuse: Trust kernel i_size only")

Functions, like pr_err, are a more modern variant of printing compared to

said to be used in Documentation/process/coding-style.rst and more
recent code - for example overlayfs - uses them instead of printk.

Convert CUSE and FUSE to use the new pr_* functions.

bit for "trying to steal weird page" warning - the second line now comes
also with "fuse:" prefix. I hope it is ok.

fuse: realloc page array

Writeback caching currently allocates requests with the maximum number of
possible pages, while the actual number of pages per request depends on a
couple of factors that cannot be determined when the request is allocated
(whether page is already under writeback, whether page is contiguous with
previous pages already added to a request).

This patch allows such requests to start with no page allocation (all pages
inline) and grow the page array on demand.

If the max_pages tunable remains the default value, then this will mean
just one allocation that is the same size as before. If the tunable is
larger, then this adds at most 3 additional memory allocations (which is
generously compensated by the improved performance from the larger
request).

Hayasaka (mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com):
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/5/136

We've encountered performance degradation and fixed it on a big and complex
virtual environment.

Environment to reproduce degradation and improvement:

1. Add lag to user mode FUSE
Add nanosleep(&(struct timespec){ 0, 1000 }, NULL); to xmp_write_buf in
passthrough_fh.c

2. patch UM fuse with configurable max_pages parameter. The patch will be
provided latter.

3. run test script and perform test on tmpfs
fuse_test()
{

cd /tmp
mkdir -p fusemnt
passthrough_fh -o max_pages=$1 /tmp/fusemnt
grep fuse /proc/self/mounts
dd conv=fdatasync oflag=dsync if=/dev/zero of=fusemnt/tmp/tmp \
count=1K bs=1M 2>&1 | grep -v records
rm fusemnt/tmp/tmp
killall passthrough_fh
}

Test results:

passthrough_fh /tmp/fusemnt fuse.passthrough_fh \
rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0 0 0
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.73867 s, 618 MB/s

passthrough_fh /tmp/fusemnt fuse.passthrough_fh \
rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,max_pages=256 0 0
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.15643 s, 928 MB/s

Obviously with bigger lag the difference between 'before' and 'after'
will be more significant.

Mitsuo Hayasaka, in 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/5/136),
observed improvement from 400-550 to 520-740.

search the cache for the current position. If the current position is not
found in the cache, then fall back to uncached readdir.

It can also happen that page(s) disappear from the cache, in which case we

fuse: allow caching readdir

This patch just adds the cache filling functions, which are invoked if
FOPEN_CACHE_DIR flag is set in the OPENDIR reply.

Cache reading and cache invalidation are added by subsequent patches.

The directory cache uses the page cache. Directory entries are packed into
a page in the same format as in the READDIR reply. A page only contains
whole entries, the space at the end of the page is cleared. The page is
locked while being modified.

Multiple parallel readdirs on the same directory can fill the cache; the
only constraint is that continuity must be maintained (d_off of last entry
points to position of current entry).

fuse: Use hash table to link processing request

We noticed the performance bottleneck in FUSE running our Virtuozzo storage

The patch introduces hash table to reduce the number of iterations, we do

fuse: umount should wait for all requests

fuse_abort_conn() does not guarantee that all async requests have actually
finished aborting (i.e. their ->end() function is called). This could
actually result in still used inodes after umount.

Add a helper to wait until all requests are fully done. This is done by
looking at the "num_waiting" counter. When this counter drops to zero, we
can be sure that no more requests are outstanding.

fuse: Support fuse filesystems outside of init_user_ns

In order to support mounts from namespaces other than init_user_ns, fuse
must translate uids and gids to/from the userns of the process servicing
requests on /dev/fuse. This patch does that, with a couple of restrictions
on the namespace:

- The userns for the fuse connection is fixed to the namespace
from which /dev/fuse is opened.

- The namespace must be the same as s_user_ns.

These restrictions simplify the implementation by avoiding the need to pass
around userns references and by allowing fuse to rely on the checks in
setattr_prepare for ownership changes. Either restriction could be relaxed
in the future if needed.

For cuse the userns used is the opener of /dev/cuse. Semantically the cuse
support does not appear safe for unprivileged users. Practically the
permissions on /dev/cuse only make it accessible to the global root user.
If something slips through the cracks in a user namespace the only users
who will be able to use the cuse device are those users mapped into the
user namespace.

Translation in the posix acl is updated to use the uuser namespace of the
filesystem. Avoiding cases which might bypass this translation is handled
in a following change.

This change is stronlgy based on a similar change from Seth Forshee and
Dongsu Park.

fuse: return -ECONNABORTED on /dev/fuse read after abort

Currently the userspace has no way of knowing whether the fuse
connection ended because of umount or abort via sysfs. It makes it hard
for filesystems to free the mountpoint after abort without worrying
about removing some new mount.

The patch fixes it by returning different errors when userspace reads
from /dev/fuse (-ENODEV for umount and -ECONNABORTED for abort).

Add a new capability flag FUSE_ABORT_ERROR. If set and the connection is
gone because of sysfs abort, reading from the device will return
-ECONNABORTED.

fuse: Dont call set_page_dirty_lock() for ITER_BVEC pages for async_dio

Commit 8fba54aebbdf ("fuse: direct-io: don't dirty ITER_BVEC pages") fixes
the ITER_BVEC page deadlock for direct io in fuse by checking in
fuse_direct_io(), whether the page is a bvec page or not, before locking
it. However, this check is missed when the "async_dio" mount option is
enabled. In this case, set_page_dirty_lock() is called from the req->end
callback in request_end(), when the fuse thread is returning from userspace
to respond to the read request. This will cause the same deadlock because
the bvec condition is not checked in this path.

Here is the stack of the deadlocked thread, while returning from userspace:

fuse: Add support for pid namespaces

When the userspace process servicing fuse requests is running in
a pid namespace then pids passed via the fuse fd are not being
translated into that process' namespace. Translation is necessary
for the pid to be useful to that process.

Since no use case currently exists for changing namespaces all
translations can be done relative to the pid namespace in use
when fuse_conn_init() is called. For fuse this translates to
mount time, and for cuse this is when /dev/cuse is opened. IO for
this connection from another namespace will return errors.

Requests from processes whose pid cannot be translated into the
target namespace will have a value of 0 for in.h.pid.

Add a new INIT flag, FUSE_POSIX_ACL, for negotiating ACL support with
userspace. When it is set in the INIT response, ACL support will be
enabled. ACL support also implies "default_permissions".

When ACL support is enabled, the kernel will cache and have responsibility
for enforcing ACLs. ACL xattrs will be passed to userspace, which is
responsible for updating the ACLs in the filesystem, keeping the file mode
in sync, and inheritance of default ACLs when new filesystem nodes are
created.

fuse: improve aio directIO write performance for size extending writes

While sending the blocking directIO in fuse, the write request is broken
into sub-requests, each of default size 128k and all the requests are sent
in non-blocking background mode if async_dio mode is supported by libfuse.
The process which issue the write wait for the completion of all the
sub-requests. Sending multiple requests parallely gives a chance to perform
parallel writes in the user space fuse implementation if it is
multi-threaded and hence improves the performance.

When there is a size extending aio dio write, we switch to blocking mode so
that we can properly update the size of the file after completion of the
writes. However, in this situation all the sub-requests are sent in
serialized manner where the next request is sent only after receiving the
reply of the current request. Hence the multi-threaded user space
implementation is not utilized properly.

This patch changes the size extending aio dio behavior to exactly follow
blocking dio. For multi threaded fuse implementation having 10 threads and
using buffer size of 64MB to perform async directIO, we are getting double
the speed.

# 744742d6 11-Mar-2016 Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com>

fuse: Add reference counting for fuse_io_priv

The 'reqs' member of fuse_io_priv serves two purposes. First is to track
the number of oustanding async requests to the server and to signal that
the io request is completed. The second is to be a reference count on the
structure to know when it can be freed.

For sync io requests these purposes can be at odds. fuse_direct_IO() wants
to block until the request is done, and since the signal is sent when
'reqs' reaches 0 it cannot keep a reference to the object. Yet it needs to
use the object after the userspace server has completed processing
requests. This leads to some handshaking and special casing that it
needlessly complicated and responsible for at least one race condition.

It's much cleaner and safer to maintain a separate reference count for the
object lifecycle and to let 'reqs' just be a count of outstanding requests
to the userspace server. Then we can know for sure when it is safe to free
the object without any handshaking or special cases.

The catch here is that most of the time these objects are stack allocated
and should not be freed. Initializing these objects with a single reference
that is never released prevents accidental attempts to free the objects.

fuse: Fix O_DIRECT operations vs cached writeback misorder

The problem is:

1. write cached data to a file
2. read directly from the same file (via another fd)

The 2nd operation may read stale data, i.e. the one that was in a file
before the 1st op. Problem is in how fuse manages writeback.

When direct op occurs the core kernel code calls filemap_write_and_wait
to flush all the cached ops in flight. But fuse acks the writeback right
after the ->writepages callback exits w/o waiting for the real write to
happen. Thus the subsequent direct op proceeds while the real writeback
is still in flight. This is a problem for backends that reorder operation.

Fix this by making the fuse direct IO callback explicitly wait on the
in-flight writeback to finish.

(direct IO).

This could result in two concurrent write request for the same offset, with
data corruption if they get mixed up.

To prevent this, fuse needs to check and delay such writes. This
implementation does this by:

1. check if page is still under writeout, if so create a new, single page
secondary request for it

2. chain this secondary request onto the in-flight request

2/a. if a seconday request for the same offset was already chained to the
in-flight request, then just copy the contents of the page and discard
the new secondary request. This makes sure that for each page will
have at most two requests associated with it

3. when the in-flight request finished, send off all secondary requests
chained onto it

# 06a7c3c2 30-Aug-2013 Maxim Patlasov <MPatlasov@parallels.com>

fuse: hotfix truncate_pagecache() issue

The way how fuse calls truncate_pagecache() from fuse_change_attributes()
is completely wrong. Because, w/o i_mutex held, we never sure whether
'oldsize' and 'attr->size' are valid by the time of execution of
truncate_pagecache(inode, oldsize, attr->size). In fact, as soon as we
released fc->lock in the middle of fuse_change_attributes(), we completely
loose control of actions which may happen with given inode until we reach
truncate_pagecache. The list of potentially dangerous actions includes
mmap-ed reads and writes, ftruncate(2) and write(2) extending file size.

The typical outcome of doing truncate_pagecache() with outdated arguments
is data corruption from user point of view. This is (in some sense)
acceptable in cases when the issue is triggered by a change of the file on
the server (i.e. externally wrt fuse operation), but it is absolutely
intolerable in scenarios when a single fuse client modifies a file without
any external intervention. A real life case I discovered by fsx-linux
looked like this:

1. Shrinking ftruncate(2) comes to fuse_do_setattr(). The latter sends
FUSE_SETATTR to the server synchronously, but before getting fc->lock ...
2. fuse_dentry_revalidate() is asynchronously called. It sends FUSE_LOOKUP
to the server synchronously, then calls fuse_change_attributes(). The
latter updates i_size, releases fc->lock, but before comparing oldsize vs
attr->size..
3. fuse_do_setattr() from the first step proceeds by acquiring fc->lock and
updating attributes and i_size, but now oldsize is equal to
outarg.attr.size because i_size has just been updated (step 2). Hence,
fuse_do_setattr() returns w/o calling truncate_pagecache().
4. As soon as ftruncate(2) completes, the user extends file size by
write(2) making a hole in the middle of file, then reads data from the hole
either by read(2) or mmap-ed read. The user expects to get zero data from
the hole, but gets stale data because truncate_pagecache() is not executed
yet.

The scenario above illustrates one side of the problem: not truncating the
page cache even though we should. Another side corresponds to truncating
page cache too late, when the state of inode changed significantly.
Theoretically, the following is possible:

1. As in the previous scenario fuse_dentry_revalidate() discovered that
i_size changed (due to our own fuse_do_setattr()) and is going to call
truncate_pagecache() for some 'new_size' it believes valid right now. But
by the time that particular truncate_pagecache() is called ...
2. fuse_do_setattr() returns (either having called truncate_pagecache() or
not -- it doesn't matter).
3. The file is extended either by write(2) or ftruncate(2) or fallocate(2).
4. mmap-ed write makes a page in the extended region dirty.

The result will be the lost of data user wrote on the fourth step.

The patch is a hotfix resolving the issue in a simplistic way: let's skip
dangerous i_size update and truncate_pagecache if an operation changing
file size is in progress. This simplistic approach looks correct for the
cases w/o external changes. And to handle them properly, more sophisticated
and intrusive techniques (e.g. NFS-like one) would be required. I'd like to
postpone it until the issue is well discussed on the mailing list(s).

fuse: add support of async IO

The patch implements a framework to process an IO request asynchronously. The
idea is to associate several fuse requests with a single kiocb by means of
fuse_io_priv structure. The structure plays the same role for FUSE as 'struct
dio' for direct-io.c.

The framework is supposed to be used like this:
- someone (who wants to process an IO asynchronously) allocates fuse_io_priv
and initializes it setting 'async' field to non-zero value.
- as soon as fuse request is filled, it can be submitted (in non-blocking way)
by fuse_async_req_send()
- when all submitted requests are ACKed by userspace, io->reqs drops to zero
triggering aio_complete()

In case of IO initiated by libaio, aio_complete() will finish processing the
same way as in case of dio_complete() calling aio_complete(). But the
framework may be also used for internal FUSE use when initial IO request
was synchronous (from user perspective), but it's beneficial to process it
asynchronously. Then the caller should wait on kiocb explicitly and
aio_complete() will wake the caller up.

fuse: make request allocations for background processing explicit

There are two types of processing requests in FUSE: synchronous (via
fuse_request_send()) and asynchronous (via adding to fc->bg_queue).

Fortunately, the type of processing is always known in advance, at the time
of request allocation. This preparatory patch utilizes this fact making
fuse_get_req() aware about the type. Next patches will use it.

fuse: implement NFS-like readdirplus support

This patch implements readdirplus support in FUSE, similar to NFS.
The payload returned in the readdirplus call contains
'fuse_entry_out' structure thereby providing all the necessary inputs
for 'faking' a lookup() operation on the spot.

If the dentry and inode already existed (for e.g. in a re-run of ls -l)
then just the inode attributes timeout and dentry timeout are refreshed.

With a simple client->network->server implementation of a FUSE based
filesystem, the following performance observations were made:

Test: Performing a filesystem crawl over 20,000 files with

sh# time ls -lR /mnt

Without readdirplus:
Run 1: 18.1s
Run 2: 16.0s
Run 3: 16.2s

With readdirplus:
Run 1: 4.1s
Run 2: 3.8s
Run 3: 3.8s

The performance improvement is significant as it avoided 20,000 upcalls
calls (lookup). Cache consistency is no worse than what already is.

userns: Support fuse interacting with multiple user namespaces

Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct fuse_conn and struct fuse_mount_data.

The connection between between a fuse filesystem and a fuse daemon is
established when a fuse filesystem is mounted and provided with a file
descriptor the fuse daemon created by opening /dev/fuse.

For now restrict the communication of uids and gids between the fuse
filesystem and the fuse daemon to the initial user namespace. Enforce
this by verifying the file descriptor passed to the mount of fuse was
opened in the initial user namespace. Ensuring the mount happens in
the initial user namespace is not necessary as mounts from non-initial
user namespaces are not yet allowed.

In fuse_req_init_context convert the currrent fsuid and fsgid into the
initial user namespace for the request that will be sent to the fuse
daemon.

In fuse_fill_attr convert the uid and gid passed from the fuse daemon
from the initial user namespace into kuids and kgids.

In iattr_to_fattr called from fuse_setattr convert kuids and kgids
into the uids and gids in the initial user namespace before passing
them to the fuse filesystem.

In fuse_change_attributes_common called from fuse_dentry_revalidate,
fuse_permission, fuse_geattr, and fuse_setattr, and fuse_iget convert
the uid and gid from the fuse daemon into a kuid and a kgid to store
on the fuse inode.

By default fuse mounts are restricted to task whose uid, suid, and
euid matches the fuse user_id and whose gid, sgid, and egid matches
the fuse group id. Convert the user_id and group_id mount options
into kuids and kgids at mount time, and use uid_eq and gid_eq to
compare the in fuse_allow_task.

FUSE: Notifying the kernel of deletion.

Allows a FUSE file-system to tell the kernel when a file or directory is
deleted. If the specified dentry has the specified inode number, the kernel will
unhash it.

The current 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' does not cause the kernel to clean up
directories that are in use properly, and as a result the users of those
directories see incorrect semantics from the file-system. The error condition
seen when 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' is used to notify of a deleted directory is
avoided when 'fuse_notify_delete' is used instead.

The following scenario demonstrates the difference:
1. User A chdirs into 'testdir' and starts reading 'testfile'.
2. User B rm -rf 'testdir'.
3. User B creates 'testdir'.
4. User C chdirs into 'testdir'.

If you run the above within the same machine on any file-system (including fuse
file-systems), there is no problem: user C is able to chdir into the new
testdir. The old testdir is removed from the dentry tree, but still open by user
A.

If operations 2 and 3 are performed via the network such that the fuse
file-system uses one of the notify functions to tell the kernel that the nodes
are gone, then the following error occurs for user C while user A holds the
original directory open:

muirj@empacher:~> ls /test/testdir
ls: cannot access /test/testdir: No such file or directory

The issue here is that the kernel still has a dentry for testdir, and so it is
requesting the attributes for the old directory, while the file-system is
responding that the directory no longer exists.

If on the other hand, if the file-system can notify the kernel that the
directory is deleted using the new 'fuse_notify_delete' function, then the above
ls will find the new directory as expected.

fuse: fix flock

Commit a9ff4f87 "fuse: support BSD locking semantics" overlooked a
number of issues with supporing flock locks over existing POSIX
locking infrastructure:

- it's not backward compatible, passing flock(2) calls to userspace
unconditionally (if userspace sets FUSE_POSIX_LOCKS)

- it doesn't cater for the fact that flock locks are automatically
unlocked on file release

- it doesn't take into account the fact that flock exclusive locks
(write locks) don't need an fd opened for write.

The last one invalidates the original premise of the patch that flock
locks can be emulated with POSIX locks.

This patch fixes the first two issues. The last one needs to be fixed
in userspace if the filesystem assumed that a write lock will happen
only on a file operned for write (as in the case of the current fuse
library).

To solve this, create a BATCH_FORGET request that allows up to about

fuse: separate queue for FORGET requests

Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes
on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30
minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache.

The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted,
are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the
huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem
operation can proceed.

Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these
take up quite a bit of memory as well.

To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure
containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET
request and chain these on a separate queue.

When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and
non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow
16 FORGET requests. This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet
other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs
are processed.

fuse: allow splice to move pages

When splicing buffers to the fuse device with SPLICE_F_MOVE, try to
move pages from the pipe buffer into the page cache. This allows
populating the fuse filesystem's cache without ever touching the page
contents, i.e. zero copy read capability.

The following steps are performed when trying to move a page into the
page cache:

- buf->ops->confirm() to make sure the new page is uptodate
- buf->ops->steal() to try to remove the new page from it's previous place
- remove_from_page_cache() on the old page
- add_to_page_cache_locked() on the new page

If any of the above steps fail (non fatally) then the code falls back
to copying the page. In particular ->steal() will fail if there are
external references (other than the page cache and the pipe buffer) to
the page.

Also since the remove_from_page_cache() + add_to_page_cache_locked()
are non-atomic it is possible that the page cache is repopulated in
between the two and add_to_page_cache_locked() will fail. This could
be fixed by creating a new atomic replace_page_cache_page() function.

fuse_readpages_end() needed to be reworked so it works even if
page->mapping is NULL for some or all pages which can happen if the
add_to_page_cache_locked() failed.

A number of sanity checks were added to make sure the stolen pages
don't have weird flags set, etc... These could be moved into generic
splice/steal code.

Implement looking up an inode by node ID after it has been evicted from

The filesystem can set the FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT flag in the INIT reply, to

fuse: add export operations

Implement export_operations, to allow fuse filesystems to be exported to
NFS. This feature has been in the out-of-tree fuse module, and is widely
used and tested.

It has not been originally merged into mainline, because doing the NFS
export in userspace was thought to be a cleaner and more efficient way of
doing it, than through the kernel.

While that is true, it would also have involved a lot of duplicated effort
at reimplementing NFS exporting (all the different versions of the
protocol). This effort was unfortunately not undertaken by anyone, so we
are left with doing it the easy but less efficient way.

If this feature goes in, the out-of-tree fuse module can go away,
which would have several advantages:

- not having to maintain two versions
- less confusion for users
- no bugs due to kernel API changes

Comment from hch:
- Use the same fh_type values as XFS, since we use the same fh encoding.

fuse: add flag to turn on big writes

Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all
fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's
nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in
NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be
other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would
result in bugs.

To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default,
but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

fuse: support writable mmap

Quoting Linus (3 years ago, FUSE inclusion discussions):

"User-space filesystems are hard to get right. I'd claim that they
are almost impossible, unless you limit them somehow (shared
writable mappings are the nastiest part - if you don't have those,
you can reasonably limit your problems by limiting the number of
dirty pages you accept through normal "write()" calls)."

Instead of attempting the impossible, I've just waited for the dirty page
accounting infrastructure to materialize (thanks to Peter Zijlstra and
others). This nicely solved the biggest problem: limiting the number of pages
used for write caching.

Some small details remained, however, which this largish patch attempts to
address. It provides a page writeback implementation for fuse, which is
completely safe against VM related deadlocks. Performance may not be very
good for certain usage patterns, but generally it should be acceptable.

It has been tested extensively with fsx-linux and bash-shared-mapping.

Fuse page writeback design
--------------------------

fuse_writepage() allocates a new temporary page with GFP_NOFS|__GFP_HIGHMEM.
It copies the contents of the original page, and queues a WRITE request to the
userspace filesystem using this temp page.

The writeback is finished instantly from the MM's point of view: the page is
removed from the radix trees, and the PageDirty and PageWriteback flags are
cleared.

For the duration of the actual write, the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter is
incremented. The per-bdi writeback count is not decremented until the actual
write completes.

On dirtying the page, fuse waits for a previous write to finish before
proceeding. This makes sure, there can only be one temporary page used at a
time for one cached page.

This approach is wasteful in both memory and CPU bandwidth, so why is this
complication needed?

The basic problem is that there can be no guarantee about the time in which
the userspace filesystem will complete a write. It may be buggy or even
malicious, and fail to complete WRITE requests. We don't want unrelated parts
of the system to grind to a halt in such cases.

Also a filesystem may need additional resources (particularly memory) to
complete a WRITE request. There's a great danger of a deadlock if that
allocation may wait for the writepage to finish.

Currently there are several cases where the kernel can block on page
writeback:

- allocation order is larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER
- page migration
- throttle_vm_writeout (through NR_WRITEBACK)
- sync(2)

Of course in some cases (fsync, msync) we explicitly want to allow blocking.
So for these cases new code has to be added to fuse, since the VM is not
tracking writeback pages for us any more.

As an extra safetly measure, the maximum dirty ratio allocated to a single
fuse filesystem is set to 1% by default. This way one (or several) buggy or
malicious fuse filesystems cannot slow down the rest of the system by hogging
dirty memory.

With appropriate privileges, this limit can be raised through
'/sys/class/bdi/<bdi>/max_ratio'.

fuse: limit queued background requests

Libfuse basically creates a new thread for each new request. This is fine for
synchronous requests, which are naturally limited. However background
requests (especially writepage) can cause a thread creation storm.

To avoid this, limit the number of background requests available to userspace.

This is done by introducing another queue for background requests, and a
counter for the number of "active" requests, which are currently available for
userspace.

fuse: fix race between getattr and write

Getattr and lookup operations can be running in parallel to attribute changing
operations, such as write and setattr.

This means, that if for example getattr was slower than a write, the cached
size attribute could be set to a stale value.

To prevent this race, introduce a per-filesystem attribute version counter.
This counter is incremented whenever cached attributes are modified, and the
incremented value stored in the inode.

Before storing new attributes in the cache, getattr and lookup check, using
the version number, whether the attributes have been modified during the
request's lifetime. If so, the returned attributes are not cached, because
they might be stale.

Thanks to Jakub Bogusz for the bug report and test program.

fuse: fix permission checking on sticky directories

The VFS checks sticky bits on the parent directory even if the filesystem
defines it's own ->permission(). In some situations (sshfs, mountlo, etc) the
user does have permission to delete a file even if the attribute based
checking would not allow it.

So work around this by storing the permission bits separately and returning
them in stat(), but cutting the permission bits off from inode->i_mode.

This is slightly hackish, but it's probably not worth it to add new
infrastructure in VFS and a slight performance penalty for all filesystems,
just for the sake of fuse.

[PATCH] fuse: fix handling of moved directory

Fuse considered it an error (EIO) if lookup returned a directory inode, to
which a dentry already refered. This is because directory aliases are not
allowed.

But in a network filesystem this could happen legitimately, if a directory is
moved on a remote client. This patch attempts to relax the restriction by
trying to first evict the offending alias from the cache. If this fails, it
still returns an error (EBUSY).

A rarer situation is if an mkdir races with an indenpendent lookup, which
finds the newly created directory already moved. In this situation the mkdir
should return success, but that would be incorrect, since the dentry cannot be
instantiated, so return EBUSY.

Previously checking for a directory alias and instantiation of the dentry
weren't done atomically in lookup/mkdir, hence two such calls racing with each
other could create aliased directories. To prevent this introduce a new
per-connection mutex: fuse_conn->inst_mutex, which is taken for instantiations
with a directory inode.

[PATCH] fuse: use jiffies_64

It is entirely possible (though rare) that jiffies half-wraps around, while a
dentry/inode remains in the cache. This could mean that the dentry/inode is
not invalidated for another half wraparound-time.

To get around this problem, use 64-bit jiffies. The only problem with this is
that dentry->d_time is 32 bits on 32-bit archs. So use d_fsdata as the high
32 bits. This is an ugly hack, but far simpler, than having to allocate
private data just for this purpose.

Since 64-bit jiffies can be assumed never to wrap around, simple comparison
can be used, and a zero time value can represent "invalid".

[PATCH] fuse: add control filesystem

Add a control filesystem to fuse, replacing the attributes currently exported
through sysfs. An empty directory '/sys/fs/fuse/connections' is still created
in sysfs, and mounting the control filesystem here provides backward
compatibility.

Advantages of the control filesystem over the previous solution:

- allows the object directory and the attributes to be owned by the
filesystem owner, hence letting unpriviled users abort the
filesystem connection

- does not suffer from module unload race

[PATCH] fuse: no backgrounding on interrupt

Don't put requests into the background when a fatal interrupt occurs while the
request is in userspace. This removes a major wart from the implementation.

Backgrounding of requests was introduced to allow breaking of deadlocks.
However now the same can be achieved by aborting the filesystem through the
'abort' sysfs attribute.

This is a change in the interface, but should not cause problems, since these
kinds of deadlocks never happen during normal operation.

This reverts 73ce8355c243a434524a34c05cc417dd0467996e commit.

It was wrong, because it didn't take into account the requirement,
that iput() for background requests must be performed synchronously
with ->put_super(), otherwise active inodes may remain after unmount.

The right solution is to keep the sbput_sem and perform iput() within
the locked region, but move fput() outside sbput_sem.

[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()

A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was
held due to a background request containing a file reference.

Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would
release the superblock. Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and
fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock
results.

The chosen soltuion is to get rid of sbput_sem, and instead use the
spinlock to ensure the referenced inodes/file are released only once.
Since the actual release may sleep, defer these outside the locked
region, but using local variables instead of the structure members.

This is a much more rubust solution.

[PATCH] fuse: account background requests

The previous patch removed limiting the number of outstanding requests. This
patch adds a much simpler limiting, that is also compatible with file locking
operations.

A task may have at most one synchronous request allocated. So these requests
need not be otherwise limited.

However the number of background requests (release, forget, asynchronous
reads, interrupted requests) can grow indefinitely. This can be used by a
malicous user to cause FUSE to allocate arbitrary amounts of unswappable
kernel memory, denying service.

For this reason add a limit for the number of background requests, and block
allocations of new requests until the number goes bellow the limit.

Also use this mechanism to block all requests until the INIT reply is
received.

[PATCH] fuse: add O_ASYNC support to FUSE device

This adds asynchronous notification to FUSE - a FUSE server can request
O_ASYNC on a /dev/fuse file descriptor and receive SIGIO when there is input
available.

One subtlety - fuse_dev_fasync, which is called when O_ASYNC is requested,
does no locking, unlink the other methods. I think it's unnecessary, as the
fuse_conn.fasync list is manipulated only by fasync_helper and kill_fasync,
which provide their own locking. It would also be wrong to use the fuse_lock,
as it's a spin lock and fasync_helper can sleep. My one concern with this is
the fuse_conn going away underneath fuse_dev_fasync - sys_fcntl takes a
reference on the file struct, so this seems not to be a problem.

[PATCH] fuse: fix async read for legacy filesystems

While asynchronous reads mean a performance improvement in most cases, if
the filesystem assumed that reads are synchronous, then async reads may
degrade performance (filesystem may receive reads out of order, which can
confuse it's own readahead logic).

With sshfs a 1.5 to 4 times slowdown can be measured.

There's also a need for userspace filesystems to know whether asynchronous
reads are supported by the kernel or not.

To achive these, negotiate in the INIT request whether async reads will be
used and the maximum readahead value. Update interface version to 7.6

If userspace uses a version earlier than 7.6, then disable async reads, and
set maximum readahead value to the maximum read size, as done in previous
versions.

Fix race in setting bitfields of fuse_conn. Spotted by Andrew Morton.

The two fields ->connected and ->mounted were always changed with the
fuse_lock held. But other bitfields in the same structure were changed
without the lock. In theory this could lead to losing the assignment of
even the ones under lock. The chosen solution is to change these two
fields to be a full unsigned type. The other bitfields aren't "important"
enough to warrant the extra complexity of full locking or changing them to
bitops.

For all bitfields document why they are safe wrt. concurrent
assignments.

Add ability to abort a filesystem connection.

With the introduction of asynchronous reads, the ability to interrupt any
request is not enough to dissolve deadlocks, since now waiting for the request
completion (page unlocked) is independent of the actual request, so in a
deadlock all threads will be uninterruptible.

The solution is to make it possible to abort all requests, even those
currently undergoing I/O to/from userspace. The natural interface for this is
'mount -f mountpoint', but that only works as long as the filesystem is
attached. So also add an 'abort' attribute to the sysfs view of the
connection.

[PATCH] FUSE: don't allow restarting of system calls

This patch removes ability to interrupt and restart operations while there
hasn't been any side-effect.

The reason: applications. There are some apps it seems that generate
signals at a fast rate. This means, that if the operation cannot make
enough progress between two signals, it will be restarted for ever. This
bug actually manifested itself with 'krusader' trying to open a file for
writing under sshfs. Thanks to Eduard Czimbalmos for the report.

The problem can be solved just by making open() uninterruptible, because in
this case it was the truncate operation that slowed down the progress. But
it's better to solve this by simply not allowing interrupts at all (except
SIGKILL), because applications don't expect file operations to be
interruptible anyway. As an added bonus the code is simplified somewhat.

Requirements
============

The most important difference between orinary filesystems and FUSE is
the fact, that the filesystem data/metadata is provided by a userspace
process run with the privileges of the mount "owner" instead of the
kernel, or some remote entity usually running with elevated
privileges.

The security implication of this is that a non-privileged user must
not be able to use this capability to compromise the system. Obvious
requirements arising from this are:

- mount owner should not be able to get elevated privileges with the
help of the mounted filesystem

- mount owner should not be able to induce undesired behavior in
other users' or the super user's processes

- mount owner should not get illegitimate access to information from
other users' and the super user's processes

These are currently ensured with the following constraints:

1) mount is only allowed to directory or file which the mount owner
can modify without limitation (write access + no sticky bit for
directories)

2) nosuid,nodev mount options are forced

3) any process running with fsuid different from the owner is denied
all access to the filesystem

1) and 2) are ensured by the "fusermount" mount utility which is a
setuid root application doing the actual mount operation.

3) is ensured by a check in the permission() method in kernel

I started thinking about doing 3) in a different way because Christoph
H. made a big deal out of it, saying that FUSE is unacceptable into
mainline in this form.

The suggested use of private namespaces would be OK, but in their
current form have many limitations that make their use impractical (as
discussed in this thread).

Suggested improvements that would address these limitations:

- implement shared subtrees

- allow a process to join an existing namespace (make namespaces
first-class objects)

- implement the namespace creation/joining in a PAM module

With all that in place the check of owner against current->fsuid may
be removed from the FUSE kernel module, without compromising the
security requirements.

Suid programs still interesting questions, since they get access even
to the private namespace causing some information leak (exact
order/timing of filesystem operations performed), giving some
ptrace-like capabilities to unprivileged users. BTW this problem is
not strictly limited to the namespace approach, since suid programs
setting fsuid and accessing users' files will succeed with the current
approach too.
