2011-12-13FUSE: Notifying the kernel of deletion.John Muir1-2/+30
Allows a FUSE file-system to tell the kernel when a file or directory is deleted. If the specified dentry has the specified inode number, the kernel will unhash it. The current 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' does not cause the kernel to clean up directories that are in use properly, and as a result the users of those directories see incorrect semantics from the file-system. The error condition seen when 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' is used to notify of a deleted directory is avoided when 'fuse_notify_delete' is used instead. The following scenario demonstrates the difference: 1. User A chdirs into 'testdir' and starts reading 'testfile'. 2. User B rm -rf 'testdir'. 3. User B creates 'testdir'. 4. User C chdirs into 'testdir'. If you run the above within the same machine on any file-system (including fuse file-systems), there is no problem: user C is able to chdir into the new testdir. The old testdir is removed from the dentry tree, but still open by user A. If operations 2 and 3 are performed via the network such that the fuse file-system uses one of the notify functions to tell the kernel that the nodes are gone, then the following error occurs for user C while user A holds the original directory open: muirj@empacher:~> ls /test/testdir ls: cannot access /test/testdir: No such file or directory The issue here is that the kernel still has a dentry for testdir, and so it is requesting the attributes for the old directory, while the file-system is responding that the directory no longer exists. If on the other hand, if the file-system can notify the kernel that the directory is deleted using the new 'fuse_notify_delete' function, then the above ls will find the new directory as expected.

2011-07-21fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik1-2/+3
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

2010-12-07fuse: separate queue for FORGET requestsMiklos Szeredi1-27/+26
Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30 minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache. The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted, are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem operation can proceed. Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these take up quite a bit of memory as well. To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET request and chain these on a separate queue. When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow 16 FORGET requests. This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs are processed.

2010-08-10check ATTR_SIZE contraints in inode_change_okChristoph Hellwig1-5/+1
Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok to make this obvious. As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious. Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an audit for its removal anyway. Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

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.

The comment in fuse_open about O_DIRECT: "VFS checks this, but only _after_ ->open()" also holds for fuse_create, however, the same kind of check was missing there. As an impact of this bug, open(newfile, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT) fails, but a stub newfile will remain if the fuse server handled the implied FUSE_CREATE request appropriately. Other impact: in the above situation ima_file_free() will complain to open/free imbalance if CONFIG_IMA is set.

2009-06-30fuse: invalidation reverse callsJohn Muir1-0/+37
Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS caches. Two notifications are added: 1) inode invalidation - invalidate cached attributes - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional) 2) dentry invalidation - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress. To prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during the invalidation and taken for write in the ->kill_sb callback.

2008-07-25fuse: add export operationsMiklos Szeredi1-2/+2
Implement export_operations, to allow fuse filesystems to be exported to NFS. This feature has been in the out-of-tree fuse module, and is widely used and tested. It has not been originally merged into mainline, because doing the NFS export in userspace was thought to be a cleaner and more efficient way of doing it, than through the kernel. While that is true, it would also have involved a lot of duplicated effort at reimplementing NFS exporting (all the different versions of the protocol). This effort was unfortunately not undertaken by anyone, so we are left with doing it the easy but less efficient way. If this feature goes in, the out-of-tree fuse module can go away, which would have several advantages: - not having to maintain two versions - less confusion for users - no bugs due to kernel API changes Comment from hch: - Use the same fh_type values as XFS, since we use the same fh encoding.
