fs: Add user namespace member to struct super_block

Start marking filesystems with a user namespace owner, s_user_ns. In
this change this is only used for permission checks of who may mount a
filesystem. Ultimately s_user_ns will be used for translating ids and
checking capabilities for filesystems mounted from user namespaces.

The default policy for setting s_user_ns is implemented in sget(),
which arranges for s_user_ns to be set to current_user_ns() and to
ensure that the mounter of the filesystem has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in that
user_ns.

The guts of sget are split out into another function sget_userns().
The function sget_userns calls alloc_super with the specified user
namespace or it verifies the existing superblock that was found
has the expected user namespace, and fails with EBUSY when it is not.
This failing prevents users with the wrong privileges mounting a
filesystem.

The reason for the split of sget_userns from sget is that in some
cases such as mount_ns and kernfs_mount_ns a different policy for
permission checking of mounts and setting s_user_ns is necessary, and
the existence of sget_userns() allows those policies to be
implemented.

The helper mount_ns is expected to be used for filesystems such as
proc and mqueuefs which present per namespace information. The
function mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns instead of sget to
ensure the user namespace owner of the namespace whose information is
presented by the filesystem is used on the superblock.

For sysfs and cgroup the appropriate permission checks are already in
place, and kernfs_mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns so that
the init_user_ns is the only user namespace used.

For the cgroup filesystem cgroup namespace mounts are bind mounts of a
subset of the full cgroup filesystem and as such s_user_ns must be the
same for all of them as there is only a single superblock.

Mounts of sysfs that vary based on the network namespace could in principle
change s_user_ns but it keeps the analysis and implementation of kernfs
simpler if that is not supported, and at present there appear to be no
benefits from supporting a different s_user_ns on any sysfs mount.

Getting the details of setting s_user_ns correct has been
a long process. Thanks to Pavel Tikhorirorv who spotted a leak
in sget_userns. Thanks to Seth Forshee who has kept the work alive.

# 7f427d3a 17-May-2016 Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull parallel filesystem directory handling update from Al Viro.

This is the main parallel directo

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull parallel filesystem directory handling update from Al Viro.

This is the main parallel directory work by Al that makes the vfs layer
able to do lookup and readdir in parallel within a single directory.
That's a big change, since this used to be all protected by the
directory inode mutex.

The inode mutex is replaced by an rwsem, and serialization of lookups of
a single name is done by a "in-progress" dentry marker.

The series begins with xattr cleanups, and then ends with switching
filesystems over to actually doing the readdir in parallel (switching to
the "iterate_shared()" that only takes the read lock).

A more detailed explanation of the process from Al Viro:
"The xattr work starts with some acl fixes, then switches ->getxattr to
passing inode and dentry separately. This is the point where the
things start to get tricky - that got merged into the very beginning
of the -rc3-based #work.lookups, to allow untangling the
security_d_instantiate() mess. The xattr work itself proceeds to
switch a lot of filesystems to generic_...xattr(); no complications
there.

After that initial xattr work, the series then does the following:

- untangle security_d_instantiate()

- convert a bunch of open-coded lookup_one_len_unlocked() to calls of
that thing; one such place (in overlayfs) actually yields a trivial
conflict with overlayfs fixes later in the cycle - overlayfs ended
up switching to a variant of lookup_one_len_unlocked() sans the
permission checks. I would've dropped that commit (it gets
overridden on merge from #ovl-fixes in #for-next; proper resolution
is to use the variant in mainline fs/overlayfs/super.c), but I
didn't want to rebase the damn thing - it was fairly late in the
cycle...

- some filesystems had managed to depend on lookup/lookup exclusion
for *fs-internal* data structures in a way that would break if we
relaxed the VFS exclusion. Fixing hadn't been hard, fortunately.

- core of that series - parallel lookup machinery, replacing
->i_mutex with rwsem, making lookup_slow() take it only shared. At
that point lookups happen in parallel; lookups on the same name
wait for the in-progress one to be done with that dentry.

Surprisingly little code, at that - almost all of it is in
fs/dcache.c, with fs/namei.c changes limited to lookup_slow() -
making it use the new primitive and actually switching to locking
shared.

- parallel readdir stuff - first of all, we provide the exclusion on
per-struct file basis, same as we do for read() vs lseek() for
regular files. That takes care of most of the needed exclusion in
readdir/readdir; however, these guys are trickier than lookups, so
I went for switching them one-by-one. To do that, a new method
'->iterate_shared()' is added and filesystems are switched to it
as they are either confirmed to be OK with shared lock on directory
or fixed to be OK with that. I hope to kill the original method
come next cycle (almost all in-tree filesystems are switched
already), but it's still not quite finished.

- several filesystems get switched to parallel readdir. The
interesting part here is dealing with dcache preseeding by readdir;
that needs minor adjustment to be safe with directory locked only
shared.

Most of the filesystems doing that got switched to in those
commits. Important exception: NFS. Turns out that NFS folks, with
their, er, insistence on VFS getting the fuck out of the way of the
Smart Filesystem Code That Knows How And What To Lock(tm) have
grown the locking of their own. They had their own homegrown
rwsem, with lookup/readdir/atomic_open being *writers* (sillyunlink
is the reader there). Of course, with VFS getting the fuck out of
the way, as requested, the actual smarts of the smart filesystem
code etc. had become exposed...

- do_last/lookup_open/atomic_open cleanups. As the result, open()
without O_CREAT locks the directory only shared. Including the
->atomic_open() case. Backmerge from #for-linus in the middle of
that - atomic_open() fix got brought in.

- then comes NFS switch to saner (VFS-based ;-) locking, killing the
homegrown "lookup and readdir are writers" kinda-sorta rwsem. All
exclusion for sillyunlink/lookup is done by the parallel lookups
mechanism. Exclusion between sillyunlink and rmdir is a real rwsem
now - rmdir being the writer.

Result: NFS lookups/readdirs/O_CREAT-less opens happen in parallel
now.

- the rest of the series consists of switching a lot of filesystems
to parallel readdir; in a lot of cases ->llseek() gets simplified
as well. One backmerge in there (again, #for-linus - rockridge
fix)"

cgroup, kernfs: make mountinfo show properly scoped path for cgroup namespaces

Patch summary:

When showing a cgroupfs entry in mountinfo, show the path of the mount
root dentry

cgroup, kernfs: make mountinfo show properly scoped path for cgroup namespaces

Patch summary:

When showing a cgroupfs entry in mountinfo, show the path of the mount
root dentry relative to the reader's cgroup namespace root.

Short explanation (courtesy of mkerrisk):

If we create a new cgroup namespace, then we want both /proc/self/cgroup
and /proc/self/mountinfo to show cgroup paths that are correctly
virtualized with respect to the cgroup mount point. Previous to this
patch, /proc/self/cgroup shows the right info, but /proc/self/mountinfo
does not.

Long version:

When a uid 0 task which is in freezer cgroup /a/b, unshares a new cgroup
namespace, and then mounts a new instance of the freezer cgroup, the new
mount will be rooted at /a/b. The root dentry field of the mountinfo
entry will show '/a/b'.

cat > /tmp/do1 << EOF
mount -t cgroup -o freezer freezer /mnt
grep freezer /proc/self/mountinfo
EOF

unshare -Gm bash /tmp/do1
> 330 160 0:34 / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime - cgroup cgroup rw,freezer
> 355 133 0:34 /a/b /mnt rw,relatime - cgroup freezer rw,freezer

The task's freezer cgroup entry in /proc/self/cgroup will simply show
'/':

grep freezer /proc/self/cgroup
9:freezer:/

If instead the same task simply bind mounts the /a/b cgroup directory,
the resulting mountinfo entry will again show /a/b for the dentry root.
However in this case the task will find its own cgroup at /mnt/a/b,
not at /mnt:

mount --bind /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/a/b /mnt
130 25 0:34 /a/b /mnt rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime shared:21 - cgroup cgroup rw,freezer

In other words, there is no way for the task to know, based on what is
in mountinfo, which cgroup directory is its own.

Example (by mkerrisk):

First, a little script to save some typing and verbiage:

echo -e "\t/proc/self/cgroup:\t$(cat /proc/self/cgroup | grep freezer)"
cat /proc/self/mountinfo | grep freezer |
awk '{print "\tmountinfo:\t\t" $4 "\t" $5}'

Create cgroup, place this shell into the cgroup, and look at the state
of the /proc files:

2653
2653 # Our shell
14254 # cat(1)
/proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/a/b
mountinfo: / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer

Create a shell in new cgroup and mount namespaces. The act of creating
a new cgroup namespace causes the process's current cgroups directories
to become its cgroup root directories. (Here, I'm using my own version
of the "unshare" utility, which takes the same options as the util-linux
version):

Look at the state of the /proc files:

/proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/
mountinfo: / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer

The third entry in /proc/self/cgroup (the pathname of the cgroup inside
the hierarchy) is correctly virtualized w.r.t. the cgroup namespace, which
is rooted at /a/b in the outer namespace.

However, the info in /proc/self/mountinfo is not for this cgroup
namespace, since we are seeing a duplicate of the mount from the
old mount namespace, and the info there does not correspond to the
new cgroup namespace. However, trying to create a new mount still
doesn't show us the right information in mountinfo:

# propagating to other mountns
/proc/self/cgroup: 7:freezer:/
mountinfo: /a/b /mnt/freezer

The act of creating a new cgroup namespace caused the process's
current freezer directory, "/a/b", to become its cgroup freezer root
directory. In other words, the pathname directory of the directory
within the newly mounted cgroup filesystem should be "/",
but mountinfo wrongly shows us "/a/b". The consequence of this is
that the process in the cgroup namespace cannot correctly construct
the pathname of its cgroup root directory from the information in
/proc/PID/mountinfo.

With this patch, the dentry root field in mountinfo is shown relative
to the reader's cgroup namespace. So the same steps as above:

/proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/a/b
mountinfo: / /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer
/proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/
mountinfo: /../.. /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer
/proc/self/cgroup: 10:freezer:/
mountinfo: / /mnt/freezer

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

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.

kernfs: implement kernfs_node_from_dentry(), kernfs_root_from_sb() and kernfs_rename()

Implement helpers to determine node from dentry and root from
super_block. Also add a kernfs_rename_ns() wrapper which assumes NULL
namespace. These generally make sense and will be used by cgroup.

v2: Some dummy implementations for !CONFIG_SYSFS was missing. Fixed.

kernfs: s/sysfs/kernfs/ in internal functions and whatever is left

kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode. Nothing can make the situation any worse. Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/sysfs_*()/kernfs_*()/ in all internal functions
* s/sysfs/kernfs/ in internal strings, comments and whatever is remaining
* Uniformly rename various vfs operations so that they're consistently
named and distinguishable.

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

kernfs: s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ and rename its friends accordingly

kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode. Nothing can make the situation any worse. Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/
* s/sysfs_elem_symlink/kernfs_elem_symlink/
* s/sysfs_elem_attr/kernfs_elem_file/

* s/target_sd/target/
* s/dir_sd/parent/
* s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/
* misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above

Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them. All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial. While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

- mic / gpio renames were missing. Spotted by kbuild test robot.

sysfs, kernfs: add skeletons for kernfs

Core sysfs implementation will be separated into kernfs so that it can
be used by other non-kobject users.

This patch creates fs/kernfs/ directory and makes boilerplate changes.
kernfs interface will be directly based on sysfs_dirent and its
forward declaration is moved to include/linux/kernfs.h which is
included from include/linux/sysfs.h. sysfs core implementation will
be gradually separated out and moved to kernfs.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

v2: mount.c added.
