commit 28a625cbc2a14f17b83e47ef907b2658576a32aa upstream.
Having this struct in module memory could Oops when if the module is
unloaded while the buffer still persists in a pipe.
Since sock_pipe_buf_ops is essentially the same as fuse_dev_pipe_buf_steal
merge them into nosteal_pipe_buf_ops (this is the same as
default_pipe_buf_ops except stealing the page from the buffer is not
allowed).

commit 0ab08f576b9e6a6b689fc6b4e632079b978e619b upstream.
A former patch introducing FUSE_I_SIZE_UNSTABLE flag provided detailed
description of races between ftruncate and anyone who can extend i_size:
> 1. As in the previous scenario fuse_dentry_revalidate() discovered that i_size
> changed (due to our own fuse_do_setattr()) and is going to call
> truncate_pagecache() for some 'new_size' it believes valid right now. But by
> the time that particular truncate_pagecache() is called ...
> 2. fuse_do_setattr() returns (either having called truncate_pagecache() or
> not -- it doesn't matter).
> 3. The file is extended either by write(2) or ftruncate(2) or fallocate(2).
> 4. mmap-ed write makes a page in the extended region dirty.
This patch adds necessary bits to fuse_file_fallocate() to protect from that
race.

commit bde52788bdb755b9e4b75db6c434f30e32a0ca0b upstream.
The patch fixes a race between mmap-ed write and fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE):
1) An user makes a page dirty via mmap-ed write.
2) The user performs fallocate(2) with mode == PUNCH_HOLE|KEEP_SIZE
and <offset, size> covering the page.
3) Before truncate_pagecache_range call from fuse_file_fallocate,
the page goes to write-back. The page is fully processed by fuse_writepage
(including end_page_writeback on the page), but fuse_flush_writepages did
nothing because fi->writectr < 0.
4) truncate_pagecache_range is called and fuse_file_fallocate is finishing
by calling fuse_release_nowrite. The latter triggers processing queued
write-back request which will write stale data to the hole soon.
Changed in v2 (thanks to Brian for suggestion):
- Do not truncate page cache until FUSE_FALLOCATE succeeded. Otherwise,
we can end up in returning -ENOTSUPP while user data is already punched
from page cache. Use filemap_write_and_wait_range() instead.
Changed in v3 (thanks to Miklos for suggestion):
- fuse_wait_on_writeback() is prone to livelocks; use fuse_set_nowrite()
instead. So far as we need a dirty-page barrier only, fuse_sync_writes()
should be enough.
- rebased to for-linus branch of fuse.git

commit 06a7c3c2781409af95000c60a5df743fd4e2f8b4 upstream.
The way how fuse calls truncate_pagecache() from fuse_change_attributes()
is completely wrong. Because, w/o i_mutex held, we never sure whether
'oldsize' and 'attr->size' are valid by the time of execution of
truncate_pagecache(inode, oldsize, attr->size). In fact, as soon as we
released fc->lock in the middle of fuse_change_attributes(), we completely
loose control of actions which may happen with given inode until we reach
truncate_pagecache. The list of potentially dangerous actions includes
mmap-ed reads and writes, ftruncate(2) and write(2) extending file size.
The typical outcome of doing truncate_pagecache() with outdated arguments
is data corruption from user point of view. This is (in some sense)
acceptable in cases when the issue is triggered by a change of the file on
the server (i.e. externally wrt fuse operation), but it is absolutely
intolerable in scenarios when a single fuse client modifies a file without
any external intervention. A real life case I discovered by fsx-linux
looked like this:
1. Shrinking ftruncate(2) comes to fuse_do_setattr(). The latter sends
FUSE_SETATTR to the server synchronously, but before getting fc->lock ...
2. fuse_dentry_revalidate() is asynchronously called. It sends FUSE_LOOKUP
to the server synchronously, then calls fuse_change_attributes(). The
latter updates i_size, releases fc->lock, but before comparing oldsize vs
attr->size..
3. fuse_do_setattr() from the first step proceeds by acquiring fc->lock and
updating attributes and i_size, but now oldsize is equal to
outarg.attr.size because i_size has just been updated (step 2). Hence,
fuse_do_setattr() returns w/o calling truncate_pagecache().
4. As soon as ftruncate(2) completes, the user extends file size by
write(2) making a hole in the middle of file, then reads data from the hole
either by read(2) or mmap-ed read. The user expects to get zero data from
the hole, but gets stale data because truncate_pagecache() is not executed
yet.
The scenario above illustrates one side of the problem: not truncating the
page cache even though we should. Another side corresponds to truncating
page cache too late, when the state of inode changed significantly.
Theoretically, the following is possible:
1. As in the previous scenario fuse_dentry_revalidate() discovered that
i_size changed (due to our own fuse_do_setattr()) and is going to call
truncate_pagecache() for some 'new_size' it believes valid right now. But
by the time that particular truncate_pagecache() is called ...
2. fuse_do_setattr() returns (either having called truncate_pagecache() or
not -- it doesn't matter).
3. The file is extended either by write(2) or ftruncate(2) or fallocate(2).
4. mmap-ed write makes a page in the extended region dirty.
The result will be the lost of data user wrote on the fourth step.
The patch is a hotfix resolving the issue in a simplistic way: let's skip
dangerous i_size update and truncate_pagecache if an operation changing
file size is in progress. This simplistic approach looks correct for the
cases w/o external changes. And to handle them properly, more sophisticated
and intrusive techniques (e.g. NFS-like one) would be required. I'd like to
postpone it until the issue is well discussed on the mailing list(s).
Changed in v2:
- improved patch description to cover both sides of the issue.

commit 4a4ac4eba1010ef9a804569058ab29e3450c0315 upstream.
The patch fixes a race between ftruncate(2), mmap-ed write and write(2):
1) An user makes a page dirty via mmap-ed write.
2) The user performs shrinking truncate(2) intended to purge the page.
3) Before fuse_do_setattr calls truncate_pagecache, the page goes to
writeback. fuse_writepage_locked fills FUSE_WRITE request and releases
the original page by end_page_writeback.
4) fuse_do_setattr() completes and successfully returns. Since now, i_mutex
is free.
5) Ordinary write(2) extends i_size back to cover the page. Note that
fuse_send_write_pages do wait for fuse writeback, but for another
page->index.
6) fuse_writepage_locked proceeds by queueing FUSE_WRITE request.
fuse_send_writepage is supposed to crop inarg->size of the request,
but it doesn't because i_size has already been extended back.
Moving end_page_writeback to the end of fuse_writepage_locked fixes the
race because now the fact that truncate_pagecache is successfully returned
infers that fuse_writepage_locked has already called end_page_writeback.
And this, in turn, infers that fuse_flush_writepages has already called
fuse_send_writepage, and the latter used valid (shrunk) i_size. write(2)
could not extend it because of i_mutex held by ftruncate(2).

Changing size of a file on server and local update (fuse_write_update_size)
should be always protected by inode->i_mutex. Otherwise a race like this is
possible:
1. Process 'A' calls fallocate(2) to extend file (~FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE).
fuse_file_fallocate() sends FUSE_FALLOCATE request to the server.
2. Process 'B' calls ftruncate(2) shrinking the file. fuse_do_setattr()
sends shrinking FUSE_SETATTR request to the server and updates local i_size
by i_size_write(inode, outarg.attr.size).
3. Process 'A' resumes execution of fuse_file_fallocate() and calls
fuse_write_update_size(inode, offset + length). But 'offset + length' was
obsoleted by ftruncate from previous step.
Changed in v2 (thanks Brian and Anand for suggestions):
- made relation between mutex_lock() and fuse_set_nowrite(inode) more
explicit and clear.
- updated patch description to use ftruncate(2) in example

The bug was introduced with async_dio feature: trying to optimize short reads,
we cut number-of-bytes-to-read to i_size boundary. Hence the following example:
truncate --size=300 /mnt/file
dd if=/mnt/file of=/dev/null iflag=direct
led to FUSE_READ request of 300 bytes size. This turned out to be problem
for userspace fuse implementations who rely on assumption that kernel fuse
does not change alignment of request from client FS.
The patch turns off the optimization if async_dio is disabled. And, if it's
enabled, the patch fixes adjustment of number-of-bytes-to-read to preserve
alignment.
Note, that we cannot throw out short read optimization entirely because
otherwise a direct read of a huge size issued on a tiny file would generate
a huge amount of fuse requests and most of them would be ACKed by userspace
with zero bytes read.

If request submission fails for an async request (i.e.,
get_user_pages() returns -ERESTARTSYS), we currently skip the
-EIOCBQUEUED return and drop into wait_for_sync_kiocb() forever.
Avoid this by always returning -EIOCBQUEUED for async requests. If
an error occurs, the error is passed into fuse_aio_complete(),
returned via aio_complete() and thus propagated to userspace via
io_getevents().

Fix bug introduced by commit 4582a4ab2a "FUSE: Adapt readdirplus to application
usage patterns".
We need to check for a positive dentry; negative dentries are not added by
readdirplus. Secondly we need to advise the use of readdirplus on the *parent*,
otherwise the whole thing is useless. Thirdly all this is only relevant if
"readdirplus_auto" mode is selected by the filesystem.
We advise the use of readdirplus only if the dentry was still valid. If we had
to redo the lookup then there was no use in doing the -plus version.

fuse supports hole punch via the fallocate() FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE
interface. When a hole punch is passed through, the page cache
is not cleared and thus allows reading stale data from the cache.
This is easily demonstrable (using FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE) by reading a
smallish random data file into cache, punching a hole and creating
a copy of the file. Drop caches or remount and observe that the
original file no longer matches the file copied after the hole
punch. The original file contains a zeroed range and the latter
file contains stale data.
Protect against writepage requests in progress and punch out the
associated page cache range after a successful client fs hole
punch.

Commit 8b41e671 introduced explicit background checking for fuse_req
structures with BUG_ON() checks for the appropriate type of request in

to send dio requests as background requests but does not update the

BUG_ON() triggers in the fuse_request_send_background() background path if
an async I/O is sent.

In case of synchronous DIO request (i.e. read(2) or write(2) for a file
opened with O_DIRECT), the patch submits fuse requests asynchronously, but
waits for their completions before return from fuse_direct_IO().
In case of asynchronous DIO request (i.e. libaio io_submit() or a file opened
with O_DIRECT), the patch submits fuse requests asynchronously and return
-EIOCBQUEUED immediately.
The only special case is async DIO extending file. Here the patch falls back
to old behaviour because we can't return -EIOCBQUEUED and update i_size later,
without i_mutex hold. And we have no method to wait on real async I/O
requests.
The patch also clean __fuse_direct_write() up: it's better to update i_size
in its callers. Thanks Brian for suggestion.

The patch implements a framework to process an IO request asynchronously. The
idea is to associate several fuse requests with a single kiocb by means of
fuse_io_priv structure. The structure plays the same role for FUSE as 'struct
dio' for direct-io.c.
The framework is supposed to be used like this:
- someone (who wants to process an IO asynchronously) allocates fuse_io_priv
and initializes it setting 'async' field to non-zero value.
- as soon as fuse request is filled, it can be submitted (in non-blocking way)
by fuse_async_req_send()
- when all submitted requests are ACKed by userspace, io->reqs drops to zero
triggering aio_complete()
In case of IO initiated by libaio, aio_complete() will finish processing the
same way as in case of dio_complete() calling aio_complete(). But the
framework may be also used for internal FUSE use when initial IO request
was synchronous (from user perspective), but it's beneficial to process it
asynchronously. Then the caller should wait on kiocb explicitly and
aio_complete() will wake the caller up.

Existing flag fc->blocked is used to suspend request allocation both in case

There are two types of processing requests in FUSE: synchronous (via

fuse_get_req() aware about the type. Next patches will use it.

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.
A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.
Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.
Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.
This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.
This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.
After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
"Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
locking violations, etc.
The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
"has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.
Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.
PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (46 commits)
saner proc_get_inode() calling conventions
proc: avoid extra pde_put() in proc_fill_super()
fs: change return values from -EACCES to -EPERM
fs/exec.c: make bprm_mm_init() static
ocfs2/dlm: use GFP_ATOMIC inside a spin_lock
ocfs2: fix possible use-after-free with AIO
ocfs2: Fix oops in ocfs2_fast_symlink_readpage() code path
get_empty_filp()/alloc_file() leave both ->f_pos and ->f_version zero
target: writev() on single-element vector is pointless
export kernel_write(), convert open-coded instances
fs: encode_fh: return FILEID_INVALID if invalid fid_type
kill f_vfsmnt
vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry op
nfsd: handle vfs_getattr errors in acl protocol
switch vfs_getattr() to struct path
default SET_PERSONALITY() in linux/elf.h
ceph: prepopulate inodes only when request is aborted
d_hash_and_lookup(): export, switch open-coded instances
9p: switch v9fs_set_create_acl() to inode+fid, do it before d_instantiate()
9p: split dropping the acls from v9fs_set_create_acl()

For some filesystems (e.g. GlusterFS), the cost of performing a
normal readdir and readdirplus are identical. Since adaptively
using readdirplus has no benefit for those systems, give
users/filesystems the option to control adaptive readdirplus use.
v2 of this patch incorporates Miklos's suggestion to simplify the code,
as well as improving consistency of macro names and documentation.

drop_nlink() warns if nlink is already zero. This is triggerable by a buggy
userspace filesystem. The cure, I think, is worse than the disease so disable
the warning.

The all pointers within fuse_req must point to valid memory once
fuse_force_forget() returns.
This bug appeared in "fuse: implement NFS-like readdirplus support"
and was never in any official Linux release.
I tested the fuse_force_forget() code path by injecting to fake -ENOMEM and
verified the FORGET operation was called properly in userspace.

Use the same adaptive readdirplus mechanism as NFS:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/49299
If the user space implementation wants to disable readdirplus
temporarily, it could just return ENOTSUPP. Then kernel will
recall it with readdir.

Commit c69e8d9c0 added rcu lock to fuse/dir.c It was assuming
that 'task' is some other process but in fact this parameter always
equals to 'current'. Inline this parameter to make it more readable
and remove RCU lock as it is not needed when access current process
credentials.

__fuse_direct_io() allocates fuse-requests by calling fuse_get_req(fc, n). The
patch calculates 'n' based on iov[] array. This is useful because allocating
FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ page pointers and descriptors for each fuse request
would be waste of memory in case of iov-s of smaller size.

Let fuse_get_user_pages() pack as many iov-s to a single fuse_req as
possible. This is very beneficial in case of iov[] consisting of many
iov-s of relatively small sizes (e.g. PAGE_SIZE).

The patch makes preliminary work for the next patch optimizing scatter-gather
direct IO. The idea is to allow fuse_get_user_pages() to pack as many iov-s
to each fuse request as possible. So, here we only rework all related
call-paths to carry iov[] from fuse_direct_IO() to fuse_get_user_pages().

Previously, anyone who set flag 'argpages' only filled req->pages[] and set
per-request page_offset. This patch re-works all cases where argpages=1 to
fill req->page_descs[] properly.
Having req->page_descs[] filled properly allows to re-work fuse_copy_pages()
to copy page fragments described by req->page_descs[]. This will be useful
for next patches optimizing direct_IO.
