Locally edit the contents of an AFS directory upon a successful inode operation that modifies that directory (such as mkdir, create and unlink) so that we can avoid the current practice of re-downloading the directory after each change. This is viable provided that the directory version number we get back from the modifying RPC op is exactly incremented by 1 from what we had previously. The data in the directory contents is in a defined format that we have to parse locally to perform lookups and readdir, so modifying isn't a problem. If the edit fails, we just clear the VALID flag on the directory and it will be reloaded next time it is needed. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Adjust the AFS directory XDR structures in a number of superficial ways: (1) Rename them to all begin afs_xdr_. (2) Use u8 instead of uint8_t. (3) Mark the structures as __packed so they don't get rearranged by the compiler. (4) Rename the hdr member of afs_xdr_dir_block to meta. (5) Rename the pagehdr member of afs_xdr_dir_block to hdr.

AFS directories are structured blobs that are downloaded just like files and then parsed by the lookup and readdir code and, as such, are currently handled in the pagecache like any other file, with the entire directory content being thrown away each time the directory changes. However, since the blob is a known structure and since the data version counter on a directory increases by exactly one for each change committed to that directory, we can actually edit the directory locally rather than fetching it from the server after each locally-induced change. What we can't do, though, is mix data from the server and data from the client since the server is technically at liberty to rearrange or compress a directory if it sees fit, provided it updates the data version number when it does so and breaks the callback (ie. sends a notification). Further, lookup with lookup-ahead, readdir and, when it arrives, local editing are likely want to scan the whole of a directory. So directory handling needs to be improved to maintain the coherency of the directory blob prior to permitting local directory editing. To this end: (1) If any directory page gets discarded, invalidate and reread the entire directory. (2) If readpage notes that if when it fetches a single page that the version number has changed, the entire directory is flagged for invalidation. (3) Read as much of the directory in one go as we can. Note that this removes local caching of directories in fscache for the moment as we can't pass the pages to fscache_read_or_alloc_pages() since page->lru is in use by the LRU.

Split the AFS dynamic root stuff out of the main directory handling file and into its own file as they share little in common. The dynamic root code also gets its own dentry and inode ops tables. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

David Howells authored
Each afs dentry is tagged with the version that the parent directory was at last time it was validated and, currently, if this differs, the directory is scanned and the dentry is refreshed. However, this leads to an excessive amount of revalidation on directories that get modified on the client without conflict with another client. We know there's no conflict because the parent directory's data version number got incremented by exactly 1 on any create, mkdir, unlink, etc., therefore we can trust the current state of the unaffected dentries when we perform a local directory modification. Optimise by keeping track of the last version of the parent directory that was changed outside of the client in the parent directory's vnode and using that to validate the dentries rather than the current version.

Rearrange the AFSFetchStatus to inode attribute mapping code in a number of ways: (1) Use an XDR structure rather than a series of incremented pointer accesses when decoding an AFSFetchStatus object. This allows out-of-order decode. (2) Don't store the if_version value but rather just check it and abort if it's not something we can handle. (3) Store the owner and group in the status record as raw values rather than converting them to kuid/kgid. Do that when they're mapped into i_uid/i_gid. (4) Validate the type and abort code up front and abort if they're wrong. (5) Split the inode attribute setting out into its own function from the XDR decode of an AFSFetchStatus object. This allows it to be called from elsewhere too. (6) Differentiate changes to data from changes to metadata. (7) Use the split-out attribute mapping function from afs_iget().

We no longer parse symlinks when we get the inode to determine if this symlink is actually a mountpoint as we detect that by examining the mode instead (symlinks are always 0777 and mountpoints 0644). Access the cache after mapping the status so that we don't have to manually set the inode size now. Note that this may need adjusting if the disconnected operation is implemented as the file metadata may have to be obtained from the cache. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Implement @cell substitution handling such that if @cell is seen as a name in a dynamic root mount, then the name of the root cell for that network namespace will be substituted for @cell during lookup. The substitution of @cell for the current net namespace is set by writing the cell name to /proc/fs/afs/rootcell. The value can be obtained by reading the file. For example: # mount -t afs none /kafs -o dyn # echo grand.central.org >/proc/fs/afs/rootcell # ls /kafs/@cell archive/ cvs/ doc/ local/ project/ service/ software/ user/ www/ # cat /proc/fs/afs/rootcell grand.central.org Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Implement the AFS feature by which @sys at the end of a pathname component may be substituted for one of a list of values, typically naming the operating system. Up to 16 alternatives may be specified and these are tried in turn until one works. Each network namespace has[*] a separate independent list. Upon creation of a new network namespace, the list of values is initialised[*] to a single OpenAFS-compatible string representing arch type plus "_linux26". For example, on x86_64, the sysname is "amd64_linux26". [*] Or will, once network namespace support is finalised in kAFS. The list may be set by: # for i in foo bar linux-x86_64; do echo $i; done >/proc/fs/afs/sysname for which separate writes to the same fd are amalgamated and applied on close. The LF character may be used as a separator to specify multiple items in the same write() call. The list may be cleared by: # echo >/proc/fs/afs/sysname and read by: # cat /proc/fs/afs/sysname foo bar linux-x86_64 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

AFS cells that are added or set as the workstation cell through /proc are pinned against removal by setting the AFS_CELL_FL_NO_GC flag on them and taking a ref. The ref should be only taken if the flag wasn't already set. Fix this by making it conditional. Without this an assertion failure will occur during module removal indicating that the refcount is too elevated. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Remove the const marking from the actor function pointer in the dir_context struct. The const prevents the structure from being used as part of a kmalloc'd object as it makes the compiler require that the actor member be set at object initialisation time (or not at all), incuring something like the following error if you try and set it later: fs/afs/dir.c:556:20: error: assignment of read-only member 'actor' Marking the member const like this adds very little in the way of sanity checking as the type checking system is likely to provide sufficient - and if not, the kernel is very likely to oops repeatably in this case.

Commit 3c8ba0d6 ("kernel.h: Retain constant expression output for max()/min()") rewrote our min/max macros to be very clever, but in the meantime resurrected a variable name shadow issue that we had had previously fixed in commit 589a9785 ("min/max: remove sparse warnings when they're nested"). That commit talks about the sparse warnings that this shadowing causes, which we ignored as just a minor annoyance. But it turns out that the sparse warning is the least of our problems. We actually have a real bug due to the shadowing through the interaction with "min_not_zero()", which ends up doing min(__x, __y) internally, and then the new declaration of "__x" and "__y" as new variables in __cmp_once() results in a complete mess of an expression, and "min_not_zero()" doesn't work at all. For some odd reason, this only ever caused (reported) problems on s390, even though it is a generic issue and most of the (obviously successful) testing of the problematic commit had happened on other architectures. Quoting Sebastian Ott: "What happened is that the bio build by the partition detection code was attempted to be split by the block layer because the block queue had a max_sector setting of 0. blk_queue_max_hw_sectors uses min_not_zero." So re-introduce the use of __UNIQUE_ID() to make sure that the min/max macros do not have these kinds of clashes. [ That said, __UNIQUE_ID() itself has several issues that make it less than wonderful. In particular, the "uniqueness" has a fallback on the line number, which means that it's not actually unique in more complex cases if you don't build with gcc or clang (which have working unique counters that aren't tied to line numbers). That historical broken fallback also means that we have that pointless "prefix" argument that doesn't actually make much sense _except_ for the known-broken case. Oh well. ] Fixes: 3c8ba0d6 ("kernel.h: Retain constant expression output for max()/min()") Reported-and-tested-by: Sebastian Ott <sebott@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Miguel Ojeda <miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Implement the CPU vulnerabilty show functions for meltdown, spectre_v1 and spectre_v2 on Alpha. Tests on XP1000 (EV67/667MHz) and ES45 (EV68CB/1.25GHz) show them to be vulnerable to Meltdown and Spectre V1. In the case of Meltdown I saw a 1 to 2% success rate in reading bytes on the XP1000 and 50 to 60% success rate on the ES45. (This compares to 99.97% success reported for Intel CPUs.) Report EV6 and later CPUs as vulnerable. Tests on PWS600au (EV56/600MHz) for Spectre V1 attack were unsuccessful (though I did not try particularly hard) so mark EV4 through to EV56 as not vulnerable.

Joe Perches noted that we have a few source files that for some inexplicable reason (read: I'm too lazy to even go look at the history) are marked executable: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/vce_v4_0.c drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_ptp.c A simple git command line to show executable C/asm/header files is this: git ls-files -s '*.[chsS]' | grep '^100755' and then you can fix them up with scripting by just feeding that output into: | cut -f2 | xargs chmod -x and commit it. Which is exactly what this commit does. Reported-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
