[ Upstream commit 9a24ce5b66f9c8190d63b15f4473600db4935f1f ]
[Description]
In a heavily loaded system where the system pagecache is nearing memory
limits and fscache is enabled, pages can be leaked by fscache while trying
read pages from cachefiles backend. This can happen because two
applications can be reading same page from a single mount, two threads can
be trying to read the backing page at same time. This results in one of
the threads finding that a page for the backing file or netfs file is
already in the radix tree. During the error handling cachefiles does not
clean up the reference on backing page, leading to page leak.
[Fix]
The fix is straightforward, to decrement the reference when error is
encountered.
[dhowells: Note that I've removed the clearance and put of newpage as
they aren't attested in the commit message and don't appear to actually
achieve anything since a new page is only allocated is newpage!=NULL and
any residual new page is cleared before returning.]
[Testing]
I have tested the fix using following method for 12+ hrs.
1) mkdir -p /mnt/nfs ; mount -o vers=3,fsc <server_ip>:/export /mnt/nfs
2) create 10000 files of 2.8MB in a NFS mount.
3) start a thread to simulate heavy VM presssure
(while true ; do echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches ; sleep 1 ; done)&
4) start multiple parallel reader for data set at same time
find /mnt/nfs -type f | xargs -P 80 cat > /dev/null &
find /mnt/nfs -type f | xargs -P 80 cat > /dev/null &
find /mnt/nfs -type f | xargs -P 80 cat > /dev/null &
..
..
find /mnt/nfs -type f | xargs -P 80 cat > /dev/null &
find /mnt/nfs -type f | xargs -P 80 cat > /dev/null &
5) finally check using cat /proc/fs/fscache/stats | grep -i pages ;
free -h , cat /proc/meminfo and page-types -r -b lru
to ensure all pages are freed.

[ Upstream commit e6bc06faf64a83384cc0abc537df954c9d3ff942 ]
If cachefiles gets an error other then ENOENT when trying to look up an
object in the cache (in this case, EACCES), the object state machine will
eventually transition to the DROP_OBJECT state.
This state invokes fscache_drop_object() which tries to sync the auxiliary
data with the cache (this is done lazily since commit 402cb8dda949d) on an
incomplete cache object struct.
The problem comes when cachefiles_update_object_xattr() is called to
rewrite the xattr holding the data. There's an assertion there that the
cache object points to a dentry as we're going to update its xattr. The
assertion trips, however, as dentry didn't get set.
Fix the problem by skipping the update in cachefiles if the object doesn't
refer to a dentry. A better way to do it could be to skip the update from
the DROP_OBJECT state handler in fscache, but that might deny the cache the
opportunity to update intermediate state.
If this error occurs, the kernel log includes lines that look like the
following:
CacheFiles: Lookup failed error -13
CacheFiles:
CacheFiles: Assertion failed

Note that there are actually two issues here: (1) EACCES happened on a

consequence of the first (it certainly looks like it ought to be). This
patch only deals with the second.

the victim might've been rmdir'ed just before the lock_rename();
unlike the normal callers, we do not look the source up after the
parents are locked - we know it beforehand and just recheck that it's
still the child of what used to be its parent. Unfortunately,
the check is too weak - we don't spot a dead directory since its
->d_parent is unchanged, dentry is positive, etc. So we sail all
the way to ->rename(), with hosting filesystems _not_ expecting
to be asked renaming an rmdir'ed subdirectory.
The fix is easy, fortunately - the lock on parent is sufficient for
making IS_DEADDIR() on child safe.

If we meet a conflicting object that is marked FSCACHE_OBJECT_IS_LIVE in
the active object tree, we have been emitting a BUG after logging
information about it and the new object.
Instead, we should wait for the CACHEFILES_OBJECT_ACTIVE flag to be cleared
on the old object (or return an error). The ACTIVE flag should be cleared
after it has been removed from the active object tree. A timeout of 60s is
used in the wait, so we shouldn't be able to get stuck there.

In cachefiles_mark_object_active(), the new object is marked active and
then we try to add it to the active object tree. If a conflicting object
is already present, we want to wait for that to go away. After the wait,
we go round again and try to re-mark the object as being active - but it's
already marked active from the first time we went through and a BUG is
issued.
Fix this by clearing the CACHEFILES_OBJECT_ACTIVE flag before we try again.
Analysis from Kiran Kumar Modukuri:
[Impact]
Oops during heavy NFS + FSCache + Cachefiles
CacheFiles: Error: Overlong wait for old active object to go away.
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000002

[Cause]
In a heavily loaded system with big files being read and truncated, an
fscache object for a cookie is being dropped and a new object being
looked. The new object being looked for has to wait for the old object
to go away before the new object is moved to active state.
[Fix]
Clear the flag 'CACHEFILES_OBJECT_ACTIVE' for the new object when
retrying the object lookup.
[Testcase]
Have run ~100 hours of NFS stress tests and have not seen this bug recur.

When a cookie is allocated that causes fscache_object structs to be
allocated, those objects are initialised with the cookie pointer, but
aren't blessed with a ref on that cookie unless the attachment is
successfully completed in fscache_attach_object().
If attachment fails because the parent object was dying or there was a
collision, fscache_attach_object() returns without incrementing the cookie
counter - but upon failure of this function, the object is released which
then puts the cookie, whether or not a ref was taken on the cookie.
Fix this by taking a ref on the cookie when it is assigned in
fscache_object_init(), even when we're creating a root object.

kernel BUG at /build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/cookie.c:639!
[Cause]
Two threads are trying to do operate on a cookie and two objects.
(1) One thread tries to unmount the filesystem and in process goes over a
huge list of objects marking them dead and deleting the objects.
cookie->usage is also decremented in following path:
nfs_fscache_release_super_cookie
-> __fscache_relinquish_cookie
->__fscache_cookie_put
->BUG_ON(atomic_read(&cookie->usage) <= 0);
(2) A second thread tries to lookup an object for reading data in following
path:
fscache_alloc_object
1) cachefiles_alloc_object
-> fscache_object_init
-> assign cookie, but usage not bumped.
2) fscache_attach_object -> fails in cant_attach_object because the
cookie's backing object or cookie's->parent object are going away
3) fscache_put_object
-> cachefiles_put_object
->fscache_object_destroy
->fscache_cookie_put
->BUG_ON(atomic_read(&cookie->usage) <= 0);
[NOTE from dhowells] It's unclear as to the circumstances in which (2) can
take place, given that thread (1) is in nfs_kill_super(), however a
conflicting NFS mount with slightly different parameters that creates a
different superblock would do it. A backtrace from Kiran seems to show
that this is a possibility:

cachefiles_read_waiter() has the right to access a 'monitor' object by
virtue of being called under the waitqueue lock for one of the pages in its
purview. However, it has no ref on that monitor object or on the
associated operation.
What it is allowed to do is to move the monitor object to the operation's
to_do list, but once it drops the work_lock, it's actually no longer
permitted to access that object. However, it is trying to enqueue the
retrieval operation for processing - but it can only do this via a pointer
in the monitor object, something it shouldn't be doing.
If it doesn't enqueue the operation, the operation may not get processed.
If the order is flipped so that the enqueue is first, then it's possible
for the work processor to look at the to_do list before the monitor is
enqueued upon it.
Fix this by getting a ref on the operation so that we can trust that it
will still be there once we've added the monitor to the to_do list and
dropped the work_lock. The op can then be enqueued after the lock is
dropped.
The bug can manifest in one of a couple of ways. The first manifestation
looks like:
FS-Cache:
FS-Cache: Assertion failed
FS-Cache: 6 == 5 is false
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at fs/fscache/operation.c:494!

? kthread_cancel_work_sync+0x10/0x10
ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30
This is due to the operation being in the DEAD state (6) rather than
INITIALISED, COMPLETE or CANCELLED (5) because it's already passed through
fscache_put_operation().
The bug can also manifest like the following:
kernel BUG at fs/fscache/operation.c:69!

That can (and does, on some filesystems) happen - ->mkdir() (and thus
vfs_mkdir()) can legitimately leave its argument negative and just
unhash it, counting upon the lookup to pick the object we'd created
next time we try to look at that name.

Pass the object size in to fscache_acquire_cookie() and
fscache_write_page() rather than the netfs providing a callback by which it
can be received. This makes it easier to update the size of the object
when a new page is written that extends the object.
The current object size is also passed by fscache to the check_aux
function, obviating the need to store it in the aux data.

Attach copies of the index key and auxiliary data to the fscache cookie so
that:
(1) The callbacks to the netfs for this stuff can be eliminated. This
can simplify things in the cache as the information is still
available, even after the cache has relinquished the cookie.
(2) Simplifies the locking requirements of accessing the information as we
don't have to worry about the netfs object going away on us.
(3) The cache can do lazy updating of the coherency information on disk.
As long as the cache is flushed before reboot/poweroff, there's no
need to update the coherency info on disk every time it changes.
(4) Cookies can be hashed or put in a tree as the index key is easily
available. This allows:
(a) Checks for duplicate cookies can be made at the top fscache layer
rather than down in the bowels of the cache backend.
(b) Caching can be added to a netfs object that has a cookie if the
cache is brought online after the netfs object is allocated.
A certain amount of space is made in the cookie for inline copies of the
data, but if it won't fit there, extra memory will be allocated for it.
The downside of this is that live cache operation requires more memory.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*

for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold
pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that
allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of
__GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying
other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the
__GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page
allocator.
This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the
per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu
list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential
benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's
even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance
of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the
zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway.
The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the
allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was
tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising
given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the
fault path.

Every pagevec_init user claims the pages being released are hot even in
cases where it is unlikely the pages are hot. As no one cares about the
hotness of pages being released to the allocator, just ditch the
parameter.
No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The
parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless
parameter copied everywhere.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the
code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry.
Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are
not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case
the 'task_list' name is actively confusing.
To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure
fields unambiguously:
struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head
struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry
For example, this code:
rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list
... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way:
rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry
... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.
Other examples are:
list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) {
list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) {
... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's
hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be
a bug), while now it's written as:
list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) {
list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) {

<linux/wait_bit.h>
The wait_bit*() types and APIs are mixed into wait.h, but they
are a pretty orthogonal extension of wait-queues.
Furthermore, only about 50 kernel files use these APIs, while
over 1000 use the regular wait-queue functionality.
So clean up the main wait.h by moving the wait-bit functionality
out of it, into a separate .h and .c file:
include/linux/wait_bit.h for types and APIs
kernel/sched/wait_bit.c for the implementation
Update all header dependencies.
This reduces the size of wait.h rather significantly, by about 30%.

Rename:
wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t
'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.
Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.
This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

An NULL-pointer dereference happens in cachefiles_mark_object_inactive()
when it tries to read i_blocks so that it can tell the cachefilesd daemon
how much space it's making available.
The problem is that cachefiles_drop_object() calls
cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() after calling cachefiles_delete_object()
because the object being marked active staves off attempts to (re-)use the
file at that filename until after it has been deleted. This means that
d_inode is NULL by the time we come to try to access it.
To fix the problem, have the caller of cachefiles_mark_object_inactive()
supply the number of blocks freed up.
Without this, the following oops may occur:

There's a race between cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() and
cachefiles_cull():
(1) cachefiles_cull() can't delete a backing file until the cache object
is marked inactive, but as soon as that's the case it's fair game.
(2) cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() marks the object as being inactive
and *only then* reads the i_blocks on the backing inode - but
cachefiles_cull() might've managed to delete it by this point.
Fix this by making sure cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() gets any data it
needs from the backing inode before deactivating the object.
Without this, the following oops may occur:

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Provide read-and-reset objects- and blocks-released counters for cachefilesd
to use to work out whether there's anything new that can be culled.
One of the problems cachefilesd has is that if all the objects in the cache
are pinned by inodes lying dormant in the kernel inode cache, there isn't
anything for it to cull. In such a case, it just spins around walking the
filesystem tree and scanning for something to cull. This eats up a lot of
CPU time.
By telling cachefilesd if there have been any releases, the daemon can
sleep until there is the possibility of something to do.
cachefilesd finds this information by the following means:
(1) When the control fd is read, the kernel presents a list of values of
interest. "freleased=N" and "breleased=N" are added to this list to
indicate the number of files released and number of blocks released
since the last read call. At this point the counters are reset.
(2) POLLIN is signalled if the number of files released becomes greater
than 0.
Note that by 'released' it just means that the kernel has released its
interest in those files for the moment, not necessarily that the files
should be deleted from the cache.

Please, use those for access to ->i_mutex; over the coming cycle
->i_mutex will become rwsem, with ->lookup() done with it held

fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c: In function ‘cachefiles_write_page’:
fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c:882: warning: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized in
this function
If the jump to label "error" is taken, "ret" will indeed be
uninitialized, and random stack data may be printed by the debug code.

Handle a write being requested to the page immediately beyond the EOF
marker on a cache object. Currently this gets an assertion failure in
CacheFiles because the EOF marker is used there to encode information about
a partial page at the EOF - which could lead to an unknown blank spot in
the file if we extend the file over it.
The problem is actually in fscache where we check the index of the page
being written against store_limit. store_limit is set to the number of
pages that we're allowed to store by fscache_set_store_limit() - which
means it's one more than the index of the last page we're allowed to store.
The problem is that we permit writing to a page with an index _equal_ to
the store limit - when we should reject that case.
Whilst we're at it, change the triggered assertion in CacheFiles to just
return -ENOBUFS instead.
The assertion failure looks something like this:
CacheFiles: Assertion failed
1000 < 7b1 is false

cachefiles requires that s_blocksize in the cache is not greater than
PAGE_SIZE, and performs the check every time a block is accessed.
Move the test to the place where the file is "opened", where other
file-validity tests are performed.

__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep. Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep. The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake. As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags. This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

Fix up the following scripted S_ISDIR/S_ISREG/S_ISLNK conversions (or lack
thereof) in cachefiles:
(1) Cachefiles mostly wants to use d_can_lookup() rather than d_is_dir() as
it doesn't want to deal with automounts in its cache.
(2) Coccinelle didn't find S_IS* expressions in ASSERT() statements in
cachefiles.

Convert the following where appropriate:
(1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).
(2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).
(3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
a ->d_automount op.
In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).
Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.
However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.
There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.
The following perl+coccinelle script was used:
use strict;
my @callers;
