Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

Most of the filesystem methods where we care about dentry name

->d_revalidate() is the major exception.
It's easy enough for callers to supply stable values for
expected name and expected parent of the dentry being
validated. That kills quite a bit of boilerplate in
->d_revalidate() instances, along with a bunch of races
where they used to access ->d_name without sufficient

9p wants to be able to build a path from given dentry to fs root and keep
it valid over a blocking operation.
->s_vfs_rename_mutex would be a natural candidate, but there are places
where we need that and where we have no way to tell if ->s_vfs_rename_mutex
is already held deeper in callchain. Moreover, it's only held for
cross-directory renames; name changes within the same directory happen
without it.
Solution:
* have d_move() done in ->rename() rather than in its caller
* maintain a 9p-private rwsem (per-filesystem)
* hold it exclusive over the relevant part of ->rename()
* hold it shared over the places where we want the path.
That almost works. FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE is enough to put all d_move()
and d_exchange() calls under filesystem's control. However, there's
also __d_unalias(), which isn't covered by any of that.
If ->lookup() hits a directory inode with preexisting dentry elsewhere
(due to e.g. rename done on server behind our back), d_splice_alias()
called by ->lookup() will move/rename that alias.
Add a couple of optional methods, so that __d_unalias() would do
if alias->d_op->d_unalias_trylock != NULL
if (!alias->d_op->d_unalias_trylock(alias))
fail (resulting in -ESTALE from lookup)
__d_move(...)
if alias->d_op->d_unalias_unlock != NULL
alias->d_unalias_unlock(alias)
where it currently does __d_move(). 9p instances do down_write_trylock()
and up_write() of ->rename_mutex.

->d_revalidate() often needs to access dentry parent and name; that has
to be done carefully, since the locking environment varies from caller
to caller. We are not guaranteed that dentry in question will not be
moved right under us - not unless the filesystem is such that nothing
on it ever gets renamed.
It can be dealt with, but that results in boilerplate code that isn't
even needed - the callers normally have just found the dentry via dcache
lookup and want to verify that it's in the right place; they already
have the values of ->d_parent and ->d_name stable. There is a couple
of exceptions (overlayfs and, to less extent, ecryptfs), but for the
majority of calls that song and dance is not needed at all.
It's easier to make ecryptfs and overlayfs find and pass those values if
there's a ->d_revalidate() instance to be called, rather than doing that
in the instances.
This commit only changes the calling conventions; making use of supplied
values is left to followups.
NOTE: some instances need more than just the parent - things like CIFS
may need to build an entire path from filesystem root, so they need
more precautions than the usual boilerplate. This series doesn't
do anything to that need - these filesystems have to keep their locking
mechanisms (rename_lock loops, use of dentry_path_raw(), private rwsem
a-la v9fs).
One thing to keep in mind when using name is that name->name will normally
point into the pathname being resolved; the filename in question occupies
name->len bytes starting at name->name, and there is NUL somewhere after it,
but it the next byte might very well be '/' rather than '\0'. Do not
ignore name->len.

Change the way netfslib collects read results to do all the collection for
a particular read request using a single work item that walks along the
subrequest queue as subrequests make progress or complete, unlocking folios
progressively rather than doing the unlock in parallel as parallel requests
come in.
The code is remodelled to be more like the write-side code, though only
using a single stream. This makes it more directly comparable and thus
easier to duplicate fixes between the two sides.
This has a number of advantages:
(1) It's simpler. There doesn't need to be a complex donation mechanism
to handle mismatches between the size and alignment of subrequests and
folios. The collector unlocks folios as the subrequests covering each
complete.
(2) It should cause less scheduler overhead as there's a single work item
in play unlocking pages in parallel when a read gets split up into a
lot of subrequests instead of one per subrequest.
Whilst the parallellism is nice in theory, in practice, the vast
majority of loads are sequential reads of the whole file, so
committing a bunch of threads to unlocking folios out of order doesn't
help in those cases.
(3) It should make it easier to implement content decryption. A folio
cannot be decrypted until all the requests that contribute to it have
completed - and, again, most loads are sequential and so, most of the
time, we want to begin decryption sequentially (though it's great if
the decryption can happen in parallel).
There is a disadvantage in that we're losing the ability to decrypt and
unlock things on an as-things-arrive basis which may affect some
applications.

Drop the was_async argument from netfs_read_subreq_terminated(). Almost
every caller is either in process context and passes false. Some
filesystems delegate the call to a workqueue to avoid doing the work in
their network message queue parsing thread.
The only exception is netfs_cache_read_terminated() which handles
completion in the cache - which is usually a callback from the backing
filesystem in softirq context, though it can be from process context if an
error occurred. In this case, delegate to a workqueue.

syzkaller reported recursion with a loop of three calls (netfs_rreq_assess,
netfs_retry_reads and netfs_rreq_terminated) hitting the limit of the stack
during an unbuffered or direct I/O read.
There are a number of issues:
(1) There is no limit on the number of retries.
(2) A subrequest is supposed to be abandoned if it does not transfer
anything (NETFS_SREQ_NO_PROGRESS), but that isn't checked under all
circumstances.
(3) The actual root cause, which is this:
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&rreq->nr_outstanding))
netfs_rreq_terminated(rreq, ...);
When we do a retry, we bump the rreq->nr_outstanding counter to
prevent the final cleanup phase running before we've finished
dispatching the retries. The problem is if we hit 0, we have to do
the cleanup phase - but we're in the cleanup phase and end up
repeating the retry cycle, hence the recursion.
Work around the problem by limiting the number of retries. This is based
on Lizhi Xu's patch[1], and makes the following changes:
(1) Replace NETFS_SREQ_NO_PROGRESS with NETFS_SREQ_MADE_PROGRESS and make
the filesystem set it if it managed to read or write at least one byte
of data. Clear this bit before issuing a subrequest.
(2) Add a ->retry_count member to the subrequest and increment it any time
we do a retry.
(3) Remove the NETFS_SREQ_RETRYING flag as it is superfluous with
->retry_count. If the latter is non-zero, we're doing a retry.
(4) Abandon a subrequest if retry_count is non-zero and we made no
progress.
(5) Use ->retry_count in both the write-side and the read-size.
[?] Question: Should I set a hard limit on retry_count in both read and
write? Say it hits 50, we always abandon it. The problem is that
these changes only mitigate the issue. As long as it made at least one
byte of progress, the recursion is still an issue. This patch
mitigates the problem, but does not fix the underlying cause. I have
patches that will do that, but it's an intrusive fix that's currently
pending for the next merge window.

This code simplification introduced significant regressions on servers

filesystems with colliding inodes, as can be illustrated with simple
tmpfs exports in qemu with remapping disabled:
```
# host side
cd /tmp/linux-test
mkdir m1 m2
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs m1
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs m2
mkdir m1/dir m2/dir
echo foo > m1/dir/foo
echo bar > m2/dir/bar
# guest side
# started with -virtfs local,path=/tmp/linux-test,mount_tag=tmp,security_model=mapped-file
mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio,debug=1 tmp /mnt/t
ls /mnt/t/m1/dir
# foo
ls /mnt/t/m2/dir
# bar (works ok if directry isn't open)
# cd to keep first dir's inode alive
cd /mnt/t/m1/dir
ls /mnt/t/m2/dir
# foo (should be bar)
```
Other examples can be crafted with regular files with fscache enabled,

In theory, we'd want the servers to be smart enough and ensure they
never send us two different files with the same 'qid.path', but while
qemu has an option to remap that is recommended (and qemu prints a
warning if this case happens), there are many other servers which do
not (kvmtool, nfs-ganesha, probably diod...), we should at least ensure
we don't cause regressions on this:
- assume servers can't be trusted and operations that should get a 'new'
inode properly do so. commit d05dcfdf5e16 (" fs/9p: mitigate inode
collisions") attempted to do this, but v9fs_fid_iget_dotl() was not
called so some higher level of caching got in the way; this needs to be
fixed properly before we can re-apply the patches.
- if we ever want to really simplify this code, we will need to add some
negotiation with the server at mount time where the server could claim
they handle this properly, at which point we could optimize this out.
(but that might not be needed at all if we properly handle the 'new'
check?)

It's possible for v9fs_fid_find "find by dentry" branch to not turn up
anything despite having an entry set (because e.g. uid doesn't match),
in which case the calling code will generally make an extra lookup
to the server.
In this case we might have had better luck looking by inode, so fall
back to look up by inode if we have one and the lookup by dentry failed.

Improve the efficiency of buffered reads in a number of ways:
(1) Overhaul the algorithm in general so that it's a lot more compact and
split the read submission code between buffered and unbuffered
versions. The unbuffered version can be vastly simplified.
(2) Read-result collection is handed off to a work queue rather than being
done in the I/O thread. Multiple subrequests can be processes
simultaneously.
(3) When a subrequest is collected, any folios it fully spans are
collected and "spare" data on either side is donated to either the
previous or the next subrequest in the sequence.
Notes:
(*) Readahead expansion is massively slows down fio, presumably because it
causes a load of extra allocations, both folio and xarray, up front
before RPC requests can be transmitted.
(*) RDMA with cifs does appear to work, both with SIW and RXE.
(*) PG_private_2-based reading and copy-to-cache is split out into its own
file and altered to use folio_queue. Note that the copy to the cache
now creates a new write transaction against the cache and adds the
folios to be copied into it. This allows it to use part of the
writeback I/O code.

If a program is watching a file on a 9p mount, it won't see any change in
size if the file being exported by the server is changed directly in the
source filesystem, presumably because 9p doesn't have change notifications,
and because netfs skips the reads if the file is empty.
Fix this by attempting to read the full size specified when a DIO read is
requested (such as when 9p is operating in unbuffered mode) and dealing
with a short read if the EOF was less than the expected read.
To make this work, filesystems using netfslib must not set
NETFS_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL if performing a DIO read where that read hit the EOF.
I don't want to mandatorily clear this flag in netfslib for DIO because,
say, ceph might make a read from an object that is not completely filled,
but does not reside at the end of file - and so we need to clear the
excess.
This can be tested by watching an empty file over 9p within a VM (such as
in the ktest framework):
while true; do read content; if [ -n "$content" ]; then echo $content; break; fi; done < /host/tmp/foo
then writing something into the empty file. The watcher should immediately
display the file content and break out of the loop. Without this fix, it
remains in the loop indefinitely.

In 9p2000 legacy mode, stat2inode initializes nlink to 1,
which is redundant with what alloc_inode should have already set.
9p2000.u overrides this with extensions if present in the stat
structure, and 9p2000.L incorporates nlink into its stat structure.
At the very least this probably messes with directory nlink

I'm not sure why this check was ever here. After updating to 6.6 I
suddenly found caching had been turned on by default and neither
cache=none nor the new directio would turn it off. After walking through
the new code very manually I realized that it's because the caching has
to be, in effect, turned off explicitly by setting P9L_DIRECT and
whenever a file has a flag, in my case QTAPPEND, it doesn't get set.
Setting aside QTDIR which seems to ignore the new fid->mode entirely,
the rest of these either should be subject to the same cache rules as
every other QTFILE or perhaps very explicitly not cached in the case of
QTAUTH.

If an iget fails due to not being able to retrieve information
from the server then the inode structure is only partially
initialized. When the inode gets evicted, references to
uninitialized structures (like fscache cookies) were being
made.
This patch checks for a bad_inode before doing anything other
than clearing the inode from the cache. Since the inode is
bad, it shouldn't have any state associated with it that needs
to be written back (and there really isn't a way to complete
those anyways).

fs/9p: fix dups even in uncached mode
fs/9p: simplify iget to remove unnecessary paths
fs/9p: rework qid2ino logic
fs/9p: Eliminate now unused v9fs_get_inode
fs/9p: Eliminate redundant non-cache path in mknod
fs/9p: remove walk and inode allocation from symlink
fs/9p: convert mkdir to use get_new_inode
fs/9p: switch vfsmount to use v9fs_get_new_inode
Yes, yes, I know the slab people were planning on going slow and letting
every subsystem fight this thing on their own. But let's just rip off
the band-aid and get it over and done with. I don't want to see a
number of unnecessary pull requests just to get rid of a flag that no
longer has any meaning.
This was mainly done with a couple of 'sed' scripts and then some manual
cleanup of the end result.

Most of the existing APIs have remained the same, but subsystems that
access file_lock fields directly need to reach into struct
file_lock_core now.

In a future patch, we're going to split file leases into their own
structure. Since a lot of the underlying machinery uses the same fields
move those into a new file_lock_core, and embed that inside struct
file_lock.
For now, add some macros to ensure that we can continue to build while
the conversion is in progress.

In later patches, we're going to introduce some macros that conflict
with the variable name here. Rename it.

In uncached mode we were still seeing duplicate getattr requests
because of aggressive dropping of inodes. Inode "freshness" is
guarded by other mechanisms when caches are disabled so this
is unnecessary and increases overhead of almost every operation.

Remove the additional comparison operators and switch to
simply lookup by inode number (aka qid.path).

This changes from a function to a macro because we can
figure out if we are 32 or 64 bit at compile time.

Now with all inode allocation going through get_from_fid
functions we can remove v9fs_get_inode and reduce us down
to a single inode allocation path.

Like symlink, mknod had a seperate path with different inode
allocation -- but this seems unnecessary, so eliminating this path.
