This is a new f_mode which can only be set by the kernel. It indicates
that the fd was opened by fanotify and should not cause future fanotify
events. This is needed to prevent fanotify livelock. An example of
obvious livelock is from fanotify close events.
Process A closes file1
This creates a close event for file1.
fanotify opens file1 for Listener X
Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1.
This creates a close event for file1.
fanotify opens file1 for Listener X
Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1.
This creates a close event for file1.
fanotify opens file1 for Listener X
Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1.
notice a pattern?
The fix is to add the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit to the open filp done by the kernel
for fanotify. Thus when that file is used it will not generate future
events.
This patch simply defines the bit.

The addition of marks on vfs mounts will be simplified if the inode

To ensure that a group will not duplicate events when it receives it based

currently all of the notification systems implemented select which inodes
they care about and receive messages only about those inodes (or the
children of those inodes.) This patch begins to flesh out fsnotify support
for the concept of listeners that want to hear notification for an inode
accessed below a given monut point. This patch implements a second list
of fsnotify groups to hold these types of groups and a second global mask
to hold the events of interest for this type of group.
The reason we want a second group list and mask is because the inode based
notification should_send_event support which makes each group look for a mark
on the given inode. With one nfsmount listener that means that every group would
have to take the inode->i_lock, look for their mark, not find one, and return
for every operation. By seperating vfsmount from inode listeners only when
there is a inode listener will the inode groups have to look for their
mark and take the inode lock. vfsmount listeners will have to grab the lock and
look for a mark but there should be fewer of them, and one vfsmount listener
won't cause the i_lock to be grabbed and released for every fsnotify group
on every io operation.

Currently all fsnotify groups are added immediately to the
fsnotify_inode_groups list upon creation. This means, even groups with no
watches (common for audit) will be on the global tracking list and will
get checked for every event. This patch adds groups to the global list on
when the first inode mark is added to the group.

Currently the comments say that group->num_marks is held because the group
is on the fsnotify_group list. This isn't strictly the case, we really
just hold the num_marks for the life of the group (any time group->refcnt

it is really being held.

fsnotify_clone_event will take an event, clone it, and return the cloned
event to the caller. Since events may be in use by multiple fsnotify
groups simultaneously certain event entries (such as the mask) cannot be
changed after the event was created. Since fanotify would like to merge
events happening on the same file it needs a new clean event to work with
so it can change any fields it wishes.

inotify only wishes to merge a new event with the last event on the
notification fifo. fanotify is willing to merge any events including by
means of bitwise OR masks of multiple events together. This patch moves

and into the inotify code. This allows each use of fsnotify to provide
their own merge functionality.

fanotify, the upcoming notification system actually needs a struct path so it can
do opens in the context of listeners, and it needs a file so it can get f_flags
from the original process. Close was the only operation that already was passing
a struct file to the notification hook. This patch passes a file for access,
modify, and open as well as they are easily available to these hooks.

fanotify is going to need to look at file->private_data to know if an event
should be sent or not. This passes the data (which might be a file,
dentry, inode, or none) to the should_send function calls so fanotify can
get that information when available
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
fanotify is only interested in event types which contain enough information
to open the original file in the context of the fanotify listener. Since
fanotify may not want to send events if that data isn't present we pass
the data type to the should_send_event function call so fanotify can express
its lack of interest.

Currently fsnotify defines a static fsnotify event which is sent when a

it happens after fsnotify is ready.
