commit 0ec4f431eb56d633da3a55da67d5c4b88886ccc7 upstream.
The only checks of the long argument passed to fcntl(fd,F_SETLEASE,.)
are done after converting the long to an int. Thus some illegal values
may be let through and cause problems in later code.
[ They actually *don't* cause problems in mainline, as of Dave Jones's
commit 8d657eb3b438 "Remove easily user-triggerable BUG from
generic_setlease", but we should fix this anyway. And this patch will
be necessary to fix real bugs on earlier kernels. ]

We can deadlock if we have a write oplock and two processes
use the same file handle. In this case the first process can't
unlock its lock if the second process blocked on the lock in the
same time.
Fix it by using posix_lock_file rather than posix_lock_file_wait
under cinode->lock_mutex. If we request a blocking lock and
posix_lock_file indicates that there is another lock that prevents
us, wait untill that lock is released and restart our call.

Bruce Fields notes that commit 778fc546f749 ("locks: fix tracking of
inprogress lease breaks") introduced a possible error pointer
dereference on failure to allocate memory. locks_conflict() will
dereference the passed-in new lease lock structure that may be an error pointer.
This means an open (without O_NONBLOCK set) on a file with a lease
applied (generally only done when Samba or nfsd (with v4) is running)
could crash if a kmalloc() fails.
So instead of playing games with IS_ERROR() all over the place, just
check the allocation failure early. That makes the code more
straightforward, and avoids this possible bad pointer dereference.

There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the

We currently use a bit in fl_flags to record whether a lease is being
broken, and set fl_type to the type (RDLCK or UNLCK) that it will
eventually have. This means that once the lease break starts, we forget
what the lease's type *used* to be. Breaking a read lease will then
result in blocking read opens, even though there's no conflict--because
the lease type is now F_UNLCK and we can no longer tell whether it was
previously a read or write lease.
So, instead keep fl_type as the original type (the type which we
enforce), and keep track of whether we're unlocking or merely
downgrading by replacing the single FL_INPROGRESS flag by
FL_UNLOCK_PENDING and FL_DOWNGRADE_PENDING flags.
To get this right we also need to track separate downgrade and break
times, to handle the case where a write-leased file gets conflicting
opens first for read, then later for write.
(I first considered just eliminating the downgrade behavior
completely--nfsv4 doesn't need it, and nobody as far as I can tell
actually uses it currently--but Jeremy Allison tells me that Windows
oplocks do behave this way, so Samba will probably use this some day.)

Both the filesystem and the lock manager can associate operations with a
lock. Confusingly, one of them (fl_release_private) actually has the
same name in both operation structures.
It would save some confusion to give the lock-manager ops different

locks_alloc_lock() assumed that the allocated struct file_lock is
already initialized to zero members. This is only true for the first
allocation of the structure, after reuse some of the members will have
random values.
This will for example result in passing random fl_start values to
userspace in fuse for FL_FLOCK locks, which is an information leak at
best.
Fix by reinitializing those members which may be non-zero after freeing.

The nfs server only supports read delegations for now, so we don't care

The caller allocated it, the caller should free it.
The only issue so far is that we could change the flp pointer even on an
error return if the fl_change callback failed. But we can simply move
the flp assignment after the fl_change invocation, as the callers don't
care about the flp return value if the setlease call failed.

You currently cannot use "fasync_helper()" in an atomic environment to
insert a new fasync entry, because it will need to allocate the new
"struct fasync_struct".
Yet fcntl_setlease() wants to call this under lock_flocks(), which is in
the process of being converted from the BKL to a spinlock.
In order to fix this, this abstracts out the actual fasync list
insertion and the fasync allocations into functions of their own, and
teaches fs/locks.c to pre-allocate the fasync_struct entry. That way
the actual list insertion can happen while holding the required
spinlock.

The lock number in /proc/locks (first field) is implemented by a counter
(private field of struct seq_file) which is incremented at each call of
locks_show() and reset to 1 in locks_start() whatever the offset is. It
should be reset according to the actual position in the list. Because of
this, the numbering erratically restarts at 1 several times when reading a
long /proc/locks file.
Moreover, locks_show() can be called twice to print a single line thus
skipping a number. The counter should be incremented in locks_next().
And last, pos is a loff_t, which can be bigger than a pointer, so we don't
use the pointer as an integer anymore, and allocate a loff_t instead.

This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the
file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd
uses it and ceph might sleep, but we can flip the definition
to a private spinlock as soon as that's done.
All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use
lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate.
Based on an earlier patch to use a spinlock from Matthew
Wilcox, who has attempted this a few times before, the
earliest patch from over 10 years ago turned it into
a semaphore, which ended up being slower than the BKL
and was subsequently reverted.
Someone should do some serious performance testing when
this becomes a spinlock, since this has caused problems
before. Using a spinlock should be at least as good
as the BKL in theory, but who knows...

This helper doesn't do anything more than cond_resched(). The

For every lock request lockd creates a new file_lock object
in nlmsvc_setgrantargs() by copying the passed in file_lock with
locks_copy_lock(). A filesystem can attach it's own lock_operations
vector to the file_lock. It has to be cleaned up at the end of the
file_lock's life. However, lockd doesn't do it today, yet it
asserts in nlmclnt_release_lockargs() that the per-filesystem
state is clean.
This patch fixes it by exporting locks_release_private() and adding
it to nlmsvc_freegrantargs(), to be symmetrical to creating a
file_lock in nlmsvc_setgrantargs().

Allow filesystem's ->lock() method to call posix_lock_file() instead of
posix_lock_file_wait(), and return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED. This makes it
possible to implement a such a ->lock() function, that works with the lock

Now the vfs_lock_file() helper can be used, so this is a cleanup as well.
