2010-08-10NFS: allow close-to-open cache semantics to apply to root of NFS filesystemNeil Brown1-0/+7
To obey NFS cache semantics, the client must verify the cached attributes when a file is opened. In most cases this is done by a call to d_validate as one of the last steps in path_walk. However for the root of a filesystem, d_validate is only ever called on the mounted-on filesystem (except when the path ends '.' or '..'). So NFS has no chance to validate the attributes. So, in nfs_opendir, we revalidate the attributes if the opened directory is the mountpoint. This may cause double-validation for "." and ".." lookups, but that is better than missing regular /path/name lookups completely.

2010-08-02vfs: re-introduce MAY_CHDIREric Paris1-1/+1
Currently MAY_ACCESS means that filesystems must check the permissions right then and not rely on cached results or the results of future operations on the object. This can be because of a call to sys_access() or because of a call to chdir() which needs to check search without relying on any future operations inside that dir. I plan to use MAY_ACCESS for other purposes in the security system, so I split the MAY_ACCESS and the MAY_CHDIR cases. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Acked-by: Stephen D.

2010-07-19mm: add context argument to shrinker callbackDave Chinner1-1/+1
The current shrinker implementation requires the registered callback to have global state to work from. This makes it difficult to shrink caches that are not global (e.g. per-filesystem caches). Pass the shrinker structure to the callback so that users can embed the shrinker structure in the context the shrinker needs to operate on and get back to it in the callback via container_of().

2010-04-28nfs d_revalidate() is too trigger-happy with d_drop()Al Viro1-0/+2
If dentry found stale happens to be a root of disconnected tree, we can't d_drop() it; its d_hash is actually part of s_anon and d_drop() would simply hide it from shrink_dcache_for_umount(), leading to all sorts of fun, including busy inodes on umount and oopsen after that.

2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix a problem whereby a buggy server can oops the kernelTrond Myklebust1-1/+1
We just had a case in which a buggy server occasionally returns the wrong attributes during an OPEN call. While the client does catch this sort of condition in nfs4_open_done(), and causes the nfs4_atomic_open() to return -EISDIR, the logic in nfs_atomic_lookup() is broken, since it causes a fallback to an ordinary lookup instead of just returning the error. When the buggy server then returns a regular file for the fallback lookup, the VFS allows the open, and bad things start to happen, since the open file doesn't have any associated NFSv4 state. The fix is firstly to return the EISDIR/ENOTDIR errors immediately, and secondly to ensure that we are always careful when dereferencing the nfs_open_context state pointer.

2009-03-10NFS: Handle -ESTALE error in access()Suresh Jayaraman1-1/+7
Hi Trond, I have been looking at a bugreport where trying to open applications on KDE on a NFS mounted home fails temporarily. There have been multiple reports on different kernel versions pointing to this common issue: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12557 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/269954 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508866.html This issue can be reproducible consistently by doing this on a NFS mounted home (KDE): 1. Open 2 xterm sessions 2. From one of the xterm session, do "ssh -X <remote host>" 3. "stat ~/.Xauthority" on the remote SSH session 4. Close the two xterm sessions 5. On the server do a "stat ~/.Xauthority" 6. Now on the client, try to open xterm This will fail. Even if the filehandle had become stale, the NFS client should invalidate the cache/inode and should repeat LOOKUP. Looking at the packet capture when the failure occurs shows that there were two subsequent ACCESS() calls with the same filehandle and both fails with -ESTALE error. I have tested the fix below. Now the client issue a LOOKUP after the ACCESS() call fails with -ESTALE. If all this makes sense to you, can you consider this for inclusion? Thanks, If the server returns an -ESTALE error due to stale filehandle in response to an ACCESS() call, we need to invalidate the cache and inode so that LOOKUP() can be retried. Without this change, the nfs client retries ACCESS() with the same filehandle, fails again and could lead to temporary failure of applications running on nfs mounted home.

2008-12-23optimize attribute timeouts for "noac" and "actimeo=0"Peter Staubach1-1/+1
Hi. I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0" mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out. (With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always appear to be timed out.) In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The cache should be considered valid only in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally expected. This problem was previously addressed by special casing the attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off- by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one error and thus, not require the special case.

2008-10-23[PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission()Miklos Szeredi1-0/+3
For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites. This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

New flag: LOOKUP_EXCL. Set before doing the final step of pathname resolution on the paths that have LOOKUP_CREATE and O_EXCL. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2008-10-20vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file setsRik van Riel1-1/+1
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

2008-10-14NFS: Fix a resolution problem with nfs_inode->cache_change_attributeTrond Myklebust1-1/+1
The cache_change_attribute is used to decide whether or not a directory has changed, in which case we may need to look it up again. Again, the use of 'jiffies' leads to an issue of resolution. Once again, the fix is to change nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute, and just make it a simple counter. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-14NFS: Fix the resolution problem with nfs_inode_attrs_need_update()Trond Myklebust1-4/+10
It appears that 'jiffies' timestamps do not have high enough resolution for nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(). One problem is that a GETATTR can be launched within < 1 jiffy of the last operation that updated the attribute. Another problem is that RPC calls can take < 1 jiffy to execute. We can fix this by switching the variables to use a simple global counter that gets incremented every time we start another GETATTR call. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-07NFS: Add options for finer control of the lookup cacheTrond Myklebust1-0/+4
Add the flag NFS_MOUNT_LOOKUP_CACHE_NONEG to turn off the caching of negative dentries. In reality what we do is to force nfs_lookup_revalidate() to always discard negative dentries. Add the flag NFS_MOUNT_LOOKUP_CACHE_NONE for enforcing stricter revalidation of dentries. It forces the revalidate code to always do a lookup instead of just checking the cached mtime of the parent directory. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-07-26[PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototypeAl Viro1-6/+5
* kill nameidata * argument; map the 3 bits in ->flags anybody cares about to new MAY_... ones and pass with the mask. * kill redundant gfs2_iop_permission() * sanitize ecryptfs_permission() * fix remaining places where ->permission() instances might barf on new MAY_... found in mask.

2008-07-15NFS: Remove the BKL from the rename, rmdir and unlink operationsTrond Myklebust1-6/+3
Attribute updates are safe, and dentry operations are protected using VFS level locks. Defer removing the BKL from sillyrename until a separate patch. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-07-15NFS: Remove BKL from NFS lookup codeTrond Myklebust1-8/+1
All dentry-related operations are already BKL-safe, since they are protected by the VFS locking. No extra locks should be needed in the NFS code. In the case of nfs_revalidate_inode(), we're only doing an attribute update (protected by the inode->i_lock). In the case of nfs_lookup(), we're instantiating a new dentry, so there should be no contention possible until after we call d_materialise_unique.
