fs: allow per-device dax status checking for filesystems

Change bdev_dax_supported so it takes a bdev parameter. This enables
multi-device filesystems like xfs to check that a dax device can work for
the particular filesystem. Once that's in place, actually fix all the
parts of XFS where we need to be able to distinguish between datadev and
rtdev.

This patch fixes the problem where we screw up the dax support checking
in xfs if the datadev and rtdev have different dax capabilities.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Ross Zwisler:

- Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number
of surprising failure cases. This includes failures with direct I/O,
gdb and fork(2).

- Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the
NFIT in ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform
supports flushing of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected
power loss events.

- Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and
better support future future PCI P2P uses.

- Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has
become out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL
spec, and instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by
the two other IOCTL families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}.

- Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in
version 1.6 of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware
download and simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status.

Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull hardened usercopy whitelisting from Kees Cook:
"Currently, hardened usercopy performs dynamic bounds checking on slab
cache objects. This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory
available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs.

To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates
a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for
copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access
control.

Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no
whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to
userspace via dynamic copy operations. (Note, an implicit form of
whitelisting is the use of constant sizes in usercopy operations and
get_user()/put_user(); these bypass all hardened usercopy checks since
these sizes cannot change at runtime.)

This new check is WARN-by-default, so any mistakes can be found over
the next several releases without breaking anyone's system.

The series has roughly the following sections:
- remove %p and improve reporting with offset
- prepare infrastructure and whitelist kmalloc
- update VFS subsystem with whitelists
- update SCSI subsystem with whitelists
- update network subsystem with whitelists
- update process memory with whitelists
- update per-architecture thread_struct with whitelists
- update KVM with whitelists and fix ioctl bug
- mark all other allocations as not whitelisted

ext2: auto disable dax instead of failing mount

Bring the ext2 filesystem in line with xfs that only warns and continues
when the "-o dax" option is specified to mount and the backing device
does not support dax. This is in preparation for removing dax support
from devices that do not enable get_user_pages() operations on dax
mappings. In other words 'gup' support is required and configurations
that were using so called 'page-less' dax will be converted back to
using the page cache.

Removing the broken 'page-less' dax support is a pre-requisite for
removing the "EXPERIMENTAL" warning when mounting a filesystem in dax
mode.

ext2: Define usercopy region in ext2_inode_cache slab cache

The ext2 symlink pathnames, stored in struct ext2_inode_info.i_data and

(inlined into vfs_readlink)
generic_readlink(dentry, ...):
struct inode *inode = d_inode(dentry);
const char *link = inode->i_link;
...
readlink_copy(..., link);

In support of usercopy hardening, this patch defines a region in the
ext2_inode_cache slab cache in which userspace copy operations are
allowed.

This region is known as the slab cache's usercopy region. Slab caches
can now check that each dynamically sized copy operation involving
cache-managed memory falls entirely within the slab's usercopy region.

This patch is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's PAX_USERCOPY
whitelisting code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are
mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

Rename superblock flags (MS_xyz -> SB_xyz)

This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel
superblock flags.

The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the

Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call,
while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb->s_flags.

The script to do this was:

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main
libnvdimm 4.12 pull request:

- Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX.
The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the
dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and
dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the
NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be
a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup
for good measure.

- Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a
case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a
condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged
for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api
to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13.

- Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending
review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when
initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem
namespace.

- Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke
__dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this
path, but xfstests immediately trips over it. No excuse for missing
this before submitting the 4.12 pull request.

These all pass the nvdimm unit tests and an xfstests spot check. The
set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot"

ext2: Call dquot_writeback_dquots() with s_umount held

ext2_sync_fs() could be called without s_umount semaphore held when
called through ext2_write_super() from __ext2_write_inode(). This
function then calls dquot_writeback_dquots() which relies on s_umount to
be held for protection against other quota operations.

In fact __ext2_write_inode() does not need all the functionality
ext2_write_super() provides. It is enough to just write the superblock.
So use ext2_sync_super() instead.

fs: Replace CURRENT_TIME with current_time() for inode timestamps

doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.

fs: Replace CURRENT_TIME with current_time() for inode timestamps

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.

CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.

This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.

Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

metadata update.

ext2: Add alignment check for DAX mount

When a partition is not aligned by 4KB, mount -o dax succeeds,
but any read/write access to the filesystem fails, except for
metadata update.

Call bdev_dax_supported() to perform proper precondition checks
which includes this partition alignment check.

ext2: convert to mbcache2

The conversion is generally straightforward. We convert filesystem from
a global cache to per-fs one. Similarly to ext4 the tricky part is that
xattr block corresponding to found mbcache entry can get freed before we
get buffer lock for that block. So we have to check whether the entry is
still valid after getting the buffer lock.

kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg

Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
memcg. For the list, see below:

- threadinfo
- task_struct
- task_delay_info
- pid
- cred
- mm_struct
- vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
- anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
- signal_struct
- sighand_struct
- fs_struct
- files_struct
- fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
- dentry and external_name
- inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.

The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).
