All "try disconnected alias if nothing else fits" logics in d_find_alias()
got accidentally disabled by Neil a while ago; for most of the callers it
was the right thing to do, so fixes belong in few callers that *do* want
disconnected aliases. This just takes the now-dead code in d_find_alias()
out.

For anything NFS-exported we do _not_ want to unlock new inode
before it has grown an alias; original set of fixes got the
ordering right, but missed the nasty complication in case of
lockdep being enabled - unlock_new_inode() does
lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key(inode)
which can only be done before anyone gets a chance to touch
->i_mutex. Unfortunately, flipping the order and doing
unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate() opens a window when
mkdir can race with open-by-fhandle on a guessed fhandle, leading
to multiple aliases for a directory inode and all the breakage
that follows from that.
Correct solution: a new primitive (d_instantiate_new())
combining these two in the right order - lockdep annotate, then
d_instantiate(), then the rest of unlock_new_inode(). All
combinations of d_instantiate() with unlock_new_inode() should
be converted to that.

As previously reported (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8642031/)
it's possible to call shrink_dentry_list with a large number of dentries
(> 10000). This, in turn, could trigger the softlockup detector and
possibly trigger a panic. In addition to the unmount path being
vulnerable to this scenario, at SuSE we've observed similar situation
happening during process exit on processes that touch a lot of dentries.
Here is an excerpt from a crash dump. The number after the colon are
the number of dentries on the list passed to shrink_dentry_list:
PID 99760: 10722
PID 107530: 215
PID 108809: 24134
PID 108877: 21331
PID 141708: 16487
So we want to kill between 15k-25k dentries without yielding.
And one possible call stack looks like:
4 [ffff8839ece41db0] _raw_spin_lock at ffffffff8152a5f8
5 [ffff8839ece41db0] evict at ffffffff811c3026
6 [ffff8839ece41dd0] __dentry_kill at ffffffff811bf258
7 [ffff8839ece41df0] shrink_dentry_list at ffffffff811bf593
8 [ffff8839ece41e18] shrink_dcache_parent at ffffffff811bf830
9 [ffff8839ece41e50] proc_flush_task at ffffffff8120dd61
10 [ffff8839ece41ec0] release_task at ffffffff81059ebd
11 [ffff8839ece41f08] do_exit at ffffffff8105b8ce
12 [ffff8839ece41f78] sys_exit at ffffffff8105bd53
13 [ffff8839ece41f80] system_call_fastpath at ffffffff81532909
While some of the callers of shrink_dentry_list do use cond_resched,
this is not sufficient to prevent softlockups. So just move
cond_resched into shrink_dentry_list from its callers.
David said: I've found hundreds of occurrences of warnings that we emit
when need_resched stays set for a prolonged period of time with the
stack trace that is included in the change log.

I received a report about suspicious growth of unreclaimable slabs on
some machines. I've found that it happens on machines with low memory
pressure, and these unreclaimable slabs are external names attached to
dentries.
External names are allocated using generic kmalloc() function, so they
are accounted as unreclaimable. But they are held by dentries, which
are reclaimable, and they will be reclaimed under the memory pressure.
In particular, this breaks MemAvailable calculation, as it doesn't take
unreclaimable slabs into account. This leads to a silly situation, when
a machine is almost idle, has no memory pressure and therefore has a big
dentry cache. And the resulting MemAvailable is too low to start a new
workload.
To address the issue, the NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES counter is
used to track the amount of memory, consumed by external names. The
counter is increased in the dentry allocation path, if an external name
structure is allocated; and it's decreased in the dentry freeing path.
To reproduce the problem I've used the following Python script:
import os
for iter in range (0, 10000000):
try:
name = ("/some_long_name_%d" % iter) + "_" * 220
os.stat(name)
except Exception:
pass
Without this patch:
$ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
MemAvailable: 7811688 kB
$ python indirect.py
$ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
MemAvailable: 2753052 kB
With the patch:
$ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
MemAvailable: 7809516 kB
$ python indirect.py
$ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
MemAvailable: 7749144 kB

Currently d_move(from, to) does the following:
* name/parent of from <- old name/parent of to, from hashed there
* to is unhashed
* name of to is preserved
* if from used to be detached, to gets detached
* if from used to be attached, parent of to <- old parent of from.
That's both user-visibly bogus and complicates reasoning a lot.
Much saner semantics would be
* name/parent of from <- name/parent of to, from hashed there.
* to is unhashed
* name/parent of to is unchanged.
The price, of course, is that old parent of from might lose a reference.
However,
* all potentially cross-directory callers of d_move() have both
parents pinned directly; typically, dentries themselves are grabbed
only after we have grabbed and locked both parents. IOW, the decrement
of old parent's refcount in case of d_move() won't reach zero.
* __d_move() from d_splice_alias() is done to detached alias.
No refcount decrements in that case
* __d_move() from __d_unalias() *can* get the refcount to zero.
So let's grab a reference to alias' old parent before calling __d_unalias()
and dput() it after we'd dropped rename_lock.
That does make d_splice_alias() potentially blocking. However, it has
no callers in non-sleepable contexts (and the case where we'd grown
that dget/dput pair is _very_ rare, so performance is not an issue).
Another thing that needs adjustment is unlocking in the end of __d_move();
folded it in. And cleaned the remnants of bogus ordering from the
"lock them in the beginning" counterpart - it's never been right and
now (well, for 7 years now) we have that thing always serialized on
rename_lock anyway.

shrink_dentry_list() holds dentry->d_lock and needs to acquire
dentry->d_inode->i_lock. This cannot be done with a spin_lock()
operation because it's the reverse of the regular lock order.
To avoid ABBA deadlocks it is done with a trylock loop.
Trylock loops are problematic in two scenarios:
1) PREEMPT_RT converts spinlocks to 'sleeping' spinlocks, which are
preemptible. As a consequence the i_lock holder can be preempted
by a higher priority task. If that task executes the trylock loop
it will do so forever and live lock.
2) In virtual machines trylock loops are problematic as well. The
VCPU on which the i_lock holder runs can be scheduled out and a
task on a different VCPU can loop for a whole time slice. In the
worst case this can lead to starvation. Commits 47be61845c77
("fs/dcache.c: avoid soft-lockup in dput()") and 046b961b45f9
("shrink_dentry_list(): take parent's d_lock earlier") are
addressing exactly those symptoms.
Avoid the trylock loop by using dentry_kill(). When pruning ancestors,
the same code applies that is used to kill a dentry in dput(). This
also has the benefit that the locking order is now the same. First
the inode is locked, then the parent.

In case when trylock in there fails, deal with it directly in
dentry_kill(). Note that in cases when we drop and retake
->d_lock, we need to recheck whether to retain the dentry.
Another thing is that dropping/retaking ->d_lock might have
ended up with negative dentry turning into positive; that,
of course, can happen only once...

In case of trylock failure don't re-add to the list - drop the locks
and carefully get them in the right order. For shrink_dentry_list(),
somebody having grabbed a reference to dentry means that we can
kick it off-list, so if we find dentry being modified under us we
don't need to play silly buggers with retries anyway - off the list
it is.
The locking logics taken out into a helper of its own; lock_parent()
is no longer used for dentries that can be killed under us.

If d_alloc_parallel runs concurrently with __d_add, it is possible for
d_alloc_parallel to continuously retry whilst i_dir_seq has been
incremented to an odd value by __d_add:
CPU0:
__d_add
n = start_dir_add(dir);
cmpxchg(&dir->i_dir_seq, n, n + 1) == n
CPU1:
d_alloc_parallel
retry:
seq = smp_load_acquire(&parent->d_inode->i_dir_seq) & ~1;
hlist_bl_lock(b);
bit_spin_lock(0, (unsigned long *)b); // Always succeeds
CPU0:
__d_lookup_done(dentry)
hlist_bl_lock
bit_spin_lock(0, (unsigned long *)b); // Never succeeds
CPU1:
if (unlikely(parent->d_inode->i_dir_seq != seq)) {
hlist_bl_unlock(b);
goto retry;
}
Since the simple bit_spin_lock used to implement hlist_bl_lock does not
provide any fairness guarantees, then CPU1 can starve CPU0 of the lock
and prevent it from reaching end_dir_add(dir), therefore CPU1 cannot
exit its retry loop because the sequence number always has the bottom
bit set.
This patch resolves the livelock by not taking hlist_bl_lock in
d_alloc_parallel if the sequence counter is odd, since any subsequent
masked comparison with i_dir_seq will fail anyway.

In case when dentry passed to lock_parent() is protected from freeing only
by the fact that it's on a shrink list and trylock of parent fails, we
could get hit by __dentry_kill() (and subsequent dentry_kill(parent))
between unlocking dentry and locking presumed parent. We need to recheck
that dentry is alive once we lock both it and parent *and* postpone
rcu_read_unlock() until after that point. Otherwise we could return
a pointer to struct dentry that already is rcu-scheduled for freeing, with
->d_lock held on it; caller's subsequent attempt to unlock it can end
up with memory corruption.

Pull hardened usercopy whitelisting from Kees Cook:
"Currently, hardened usercopy performs dynamic bounds checking on slab
cache objects. This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory
available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs.
To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates
a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for
copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access
control.
Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no
whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to
userspace via dynamic copy operations. (Note, an implicit form of
whitelisting is the use of constant sizes in usercopy operations and
get_user()/put_user(); these bypass all hardened usercopy checks since
these sizes cannot change at runtime.)
This new check is WARN-by-default, so any mistakes can be found over
the next several releases without breaking anyone's system.
The series has roughly the following sections:
- remove %p and improve reporting with offset
- prepare infrastructure and whitelist kmalloc
- update VFS subsystem with whitelists
- update SCSI subsystem with whitelists
- update network subsystem with whitelists
- update process memory with whitelists

Merge KASAN word-at-a-time fixups from Andrey Ryabinin.
The word-at-a-time optimizations have caused headaches for KASAN, since
the whole point is that we access byte streams in bigger chunks, and
KASAN can be unhappy about the potential extra access at the end of the
string.
We used to have a horrible hack in dcache, and then people got
complaints from the strscpy() case. This fixes it all up properly, by
adding an explicit helper for the "access byte stream one word at a
time" case.

dentry_string_cmp() performs the word-at-a-time reads from 'cs' and may
read slightly more than it was requested in kmallac(). Normally this
would make KASAN to report out-of-bounds access, but this was
workarounded by commit df4c0e36f1b1 ("fs: dcache: manually unpoison
dname after allocation to shut up kasan's reports").
This workaround is not perfect, since it allows out-of-bounds access to
dentry's name for all the code, not just in dentry_string_cmp().
So it would be better to use read_word_at_a_time() instead and revert
commit df4c0e36f1b1.

In support of usercopy hardening, this patch defines the entire cache
object in the names_cache slab cache as whitelisted, since it may entirely
hold name strings to be copied to/from userspace.
This patch is verbatim from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's PAX_USERCOPY
whitelisting code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are
mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

When a dentry name is short enough, it can be stored directly in the
dentry itself (instead in a separate kmalloc allocation). These dentry
short names, stored in struct dentry.d_iname and therefore contained in
the dentry_cache slab cache, need to be coped to userspace.
cache object allocation:
fs/dcache.c:
__d_alloc(...):
...
dentry = kmem_cache_alloc(dentry_cache, ...);
...
dentry->d_name.name = dentry->d_iname;
example usage trace:
filldir+0xb0/0x140
dcache_readdir+0x82/0x170
iterate_dir+0x142/0x1b0
SyS_getdents+0xb5/0x160
fs/readdir.c:
(called via ctx.actor by dir_emit)
filldir(..., const char *name, ...):
...
copy_to_user(..., name, namlen)
fs/libfs.c:
dcache_readdir(...):
...
next = next_positive(dentry, p, 1)
...
dir_emit(..., next->d_name.name, ...)
In support of usercopy hardening, this patch defines a region in the
dentry_cache slab cache in which userspace copy operations are allowed.
This region is known as the slab cache's usercopy region. Slab caches can
now check that each dynamic copy operation involving cache-managed memory
falls entirely within the slab's usercopy region.

d_move() will call __d_drop() and then __d_rehash()
on the dentry being moved. This creates a small window
when the dentry appears to be unhashed. Many tests
of d_unhashed() are made under ->d_lock and so are safe
from racing with this window, but some aren't.
In particular, getcwd() calls d_unlinked() (which calls
d_unhashed()) without d_lock protection, so it can race.
This races has been seen in practice with lustre, which uses d_move() as
part of name lookup. See:
https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9735
It could race with a regular rename(), and result in ENOENT instead
of either the 'before' or 'after' name.
The race can be demonstrated with a simple program which
has two threads, one renaming a directory back and forth
while another calls getcwd() within that directory: it should never
fail, but does. See:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9455345/
We could fix this race by taking d_lock and rechecking when
d_unhashed() reports true. Alternately when can remove the window,
which is the approach this patch takes.
___d_drop() is introduce which does *not* clear d_hash.pprev
so the dentry still appears to be hashed. __d_drop() calls
___d_drop(), then clears d_hash.pprev.
__d_move() now uses ___d_drop() and only clears d_hash.pprev
when not rehashing.

The original purpose of the per-superblock d_anon list was to
keep disconnected dentries in the cache between consecutive
requests to the NFS server. Dentries can be disconnected if
a client holds a file open and repeatedly performs IO on it,
and if the server drops the dentry, whether due to memory
pressure, server restart, or "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches".
This purpose was thwarted by commit 75a6f82a0d10 ("freeing unlinked
file indefinitely delayed") which caused disconnected dentries
to be freed as soon as their refcount reached zero.
This means that, when a dentry being used by nfsd gets disconnected, a
new one needs to be allocated for every request (unless requests
overlap). As the dentry has no name, no parent, and no children,
there is little of value to cache. As small memory allocations are
typically fast (from per-cpu free lists) this likely has little cost.
This means that the original purpose of s_anon is no longer relevant:
there is no longer any need to keep disconnected dentries on a list so
they appear to be hashed.
However, s_anon now has a new use. When you mount an NFS filesystem,
the dentry stored in s_root is just a placebo. The "real" root dentry
is allocated using d_obtain_root() and so it kept on the s_anon list.
I don't know the reason for this, but suspect it related to NFSv4
where a mount of "server:/some/path" require NFS to look up the root
filehandle on the server, then walk down "/some" and "/path" to get
the filehandle to mount.
Whatever the reason, NFS depends on the s_anon list and on
shrink_dcache_for_umount() pruning all dentries on this list. So we
cannot simply remove s_anon.
We could just leave the code unchanged, but apart from that being
potentially confusing, the (unfair) bit-spin-lock which protects
s_anon can become a bottle neck when lots of disconnected dentries are
being created.
So this patch renames s_anon to s_roots, and stops storing
disconnected dentries on the list. Only dentries obtained with
d_obtain_root() are now stored on this list. There are many fewer of
these (only NFS and NILFS2 use the call, and only during filesystem
mount) so contention on the bit-lock will not be a problem.
Possibly an alternate solution should be found for NFS and NILFS2, but
that would require understanding their needs first.

The code in __d_alloc() carefully orders filling in the NUL character
of the name (and the length, hash, and the name itself) with assigning
of the name itself. However, prepend_name() does not order the accesses
to the ->name and ->len fields, other than on TSO systems. This commit
therefore replaces prepend_name()'s READ_ONCE() of ->name with an
smp_load_acquire(), which orders against the subsequent READ_ONCE() of
->len. Because READ_ONCE() now incorporates smp_read_barrier_depends(),
prepend_name()'s smp_read_barrier_depends() is removed. Finally,
to save a line, the smp_wmb()/store pair in __d_alloc() is replaced
by smp_store_release().

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.
As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.
KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream.
We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).
The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.
Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.
This patch (of 4):
Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.
[alexander.levin@verizon.com: correctly remove kmemcheck call from dma_map_sg_attrs]

For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.
However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
distinction is critical to correct operation.
It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references
to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory
step, this patch converts the dcache code and comments to use
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.
