fs: better handle deep ancestor chains in is_subdir()

[ Upstream commit 391b59b045004d5b985d033263ccba3e941a7740 ]

Jan reported that 'cd ..' may take a long time in deep directory
hierarchies under a bind-mount. If concurrent renames happen it is
possible to livelock in is_subdir() because it will keep retrying.

Change is_subdir() from simply retrying over and over to retry once and
then acquire the rename lock to handle deep ancestor chains better. The
list of alternatives to this approach were less then pleasant. Change
the scope of rcu lock to cover the whole walk while at it.

A big thanks to Jan and Linus. Both Jan and Linus had proposed
effectively the same thing just that one version ended up being slightly
more elegant.

vfs: don't mod negative dentry count when on shrinker list

vfs: don't mod negative dentry count when on shrinker list

[ Upstream commit aabfe57ebaa75841db47ea59091ec3c5a06d2f52 ]

The nr_dentry_negative counter is intended to only account negative
dentries that are present on the superblock LRU. Therefore, the LRU
add, remove and isolate helpers modify the counter based on whether
the dentry is negative, but the shrinker list related helpers do not
modify the counter, and the paths that change a dentry between
positive and negative only do so if DCACHE_LRU_LIST is set.

The problem with this is that a dentry on a shrinker list still has
DCACHE_LRU_LIST set to indicate ->d_lru is in use. The additional
DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST flag denotes whether the dentry is on LRU or a
shrink related list. Therefore if a relevant operation (i.e. unlink)
occurs while a dentry is present on a shrinker list, and the
associated codepath only checks for DCACHE_LRU_LIST, then it is
technically possible to modify the negative dentry count for a
dentry that is off the LRU. Since the shrinker list related helpers
do not modify the negative dentry count (because non-LRU dentries
should not be included in the count) when the dentry is ultimately
removed from the shrinker list, this can cause the negative dentry
count to become permanently inaccurate.

This problem can be reproduced via a heavy file create/unlink vs.
drop_caches workload. On an 80xcpu system, I start 80 tasks each
running a 1k file create/delete loop, and one task spinning on
drop_caches. After 10 minutes or so of runtime, the idle/clean cache
negative dentry count increases from somewhere in the range of 5-10
entries to several hundred (and increasingly grows beyond
nr_dentry_unused).

Tweak the logic in the paths that turn a dentry negative or positive
to filter out the case where the dentry is present on a shrink
related list. This allows the above workload to maintain an accurate
negative dentry count.

fs/dcache: Re-use value stored to dentry->d_flags instead of re-reading

[ Upstream commit 8bfb40be31ddea0cb4664b352e1797cfe6c91976 ]

Currently, the __d_clear_type_and_inode() writes the value flags to
dentry->d_flags, then immediately re-reads it in order to use it in a if
statement. This re-read is useless because no other update to
dentry->d_flags can occur at this point.

This commit therefore re-use flags in the if statement instead of
re-reading dentry->d_flags.

fast_dput(): handle underflows gracefully

fast_dput(): handle underflows gracefully

[ Upstream commit 504e08cebe1d4e1efe25f915234f646e74a364a8 ]

If refcount is less than 1, we should just warn, unlock dentry and
return true, so that the caller doesn't try to do anything else.

Taking care of that leaves the rest of "lockref_put_return() has
failed" case equivalent to "decrement refcount and rejoin the
normal slow path after the point where we grab ->d_lock".

NOTE: lockref_put_return() is strictly a fastpath thing - unlike
the rest of lockref primitives, it does not contain a fallback.
Caller (and it looks like fast_dput() is the only legitimate one
in the entire kernel) has to do that itself. Reasons for
lockref_put_return() failures:
* ->d_lock held by somebody
* refcount <= 0
* ... or an architecture not supporting lockref use of
cmpxchg - sparc, anything non-SMP, config with spinlock debugging...

We could add a fallback, but it would be a clumsy API - we'd have
to distinguish between:
(1) refcount > 1 - decremented, lock not held on return
(2) refcount < 1 - left alone, probably no sense to hold the lock
(3) refcount is 1, no cmphxcg - decremented, lock held on return
(4) refcount is 1, cmphxcg supported - decremented, lock *NOT* held
on return.
We want to return with no lock held in case (4); that's the whole point of that
thing. We very much do not want to have the fallback in case (3) return without
a lock, since the caller might have to retake it in that case.
So it wouldn't be more convenient than doing the fallback in the caller and
it would be very easy to screw up, especially since the test coverage would
suck - no way to test (3) and (4) on the same kernel build.

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.

Features:

- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics

- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice

- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up

- Use synchronous fput for the close system call

Cleanups:

- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper

- Simplify epoll allocation helper

- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio

- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio

- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking

- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus

- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api

- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code

- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs

- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()

Fixes:

- Fix various kernel-doc issues

- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE

- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts

- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs

- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec

- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions

- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"
