All uses of fanotify_event_has_path() have been removed since commit 9c61f3b560f5 ("fanotify: break up fanotify_alloc_event()"), now it is useless, so remove it. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220926023018.1505270-1-cuigaosheng1@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Gaosheng Cui Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

fanotify: introduce FAN_MARK_IGNORE

2022-07-01T12:53:01Z

This flag is a new way to configure ignore mask which allows adding and removing the event flags FAN_ONDIR and FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD in ignore mask. The legacy FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK flag would always ignore events on directories and would ignore events on children depending on whether the FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD flag was set in the (non ignored) mask. FAN_MARK_IGNORE can be used to ignore events on children without setting FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD in the mark's mask and will not ignore events on directories unconditionally, only when FAN_ONDIR is set in ignore mask. The new behavior is non-downgradable. After calling fanotify_mark() with FAN_MARK_IGNORE once, calling fanotify_mark() with FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK on the same object will return EEXIST error. Setting the event flags with FAN_MARK_IGNORE on a non-dir inode mark has no meaning and will return ENOTDIR error. The meaning of FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY is preserved with the new FAN_MARK_IGNORE flag, but with a few semantic differences: 1. FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY is required for filesystem and mount marks and on an inode mark on a directory. Omitting this flag will return EINVAL or EISDIR error. 2. An ignore mask on a non-directory inode that survives modify could never be downgraded to an ignore mask that does not survive modify. With new FAN_MARK_IGNORE semantics we make that rule explicit - trying to update a surviving ignore mask without the flag FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY will return EEXIST error. The conveniene macro FAN_MARK_IGNORE_SURV is added for (FAN_MARK_IGNORE | FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY), because the common case should use short constant names.

fanotify: cleanups for fanotify_mark() input validations

2022-07-01T12:51:49Z

Create helper fanotify_may_update_existing_mark() for checking for conflicts between existing mark flags and fanotify_mark() flags. Use variable mark_cmd to make the checks for mark command bits cleaner.

fanotify: prepare for setting event flags in ignore mask

2022-07-01T12:51:13Z

Setting flags FAN_ONDIR FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD in ignore mask has no effect. The FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD flag in mask implicitly applies to ignore mask and ignore mask is always implicitly applied to events on directories. Define a mark flag that replaces this legacy behavior with logic of applying the ignore mask according to event flags in ignore mask. Implement the new logic to prepare for supporting an ignore mask that ignores events on children and ignore mask that does not ignore events on directories. To emphasize the change in terminology, also rename ignored_mask mark member to ignore_mask and use accessors to get only the effective ignored events or the ignored events and flags. This change in terminology finally aligns with the "ignore mask" language in man pages and in most of the comments.

fanotify: refine the validation checks on non-dir inode mask

2022-06-28T09:18:13Z

Commit ceaf69f8eadc ("fanotify: do not allow setting dirent events in mask of non-dir") added restrictions about setting dirent events in the mask of a non-dir inode mark, which does not make any sense. For backward compatibility, these restictions were added only to new (v5.17+) APIs. It also does not make any sense to set the flags FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD or FAN_ONDIR in the mask of a non-dir inode. Add these flags to the dir-only restriction of the new APIs as well. Move the check of the dir-only flags for new APIs into the helper fanotify_events_supported(), which is only called for FAN_MARK_ADD, because there is no need to error on an attempt to remove the dir-only flags from non-dir inode.
