1cd66c93ba fs: make remaining filesystems use .rename2
This is trivial to do:

 - add flags argument to foo_rename()
 - check if flags is zero
 - assign foo_rename() to .rename2 instead of .rename

This doesn't mean it's impossible to support RENAME_NOREPLACE for these
filesystems, but it is not trivial, like for local filesystems.
RENAME_NOREPLACE must guarantee atomicity (i.e. it shouldn't be possible
for a file to be created on one host while it is overwritten by rename on
another host).

Filesystems converted:

9p, afs, ceph, coda, ecryptfs, kernfs, lustre, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2, orangefs.

After this, we can get rid of the duplicate interfaces for rename.

3abb1d90f5 kernfs: make kernfs_path*() behave in the style of strlcpy()
kernfs_path*() functions always return the length of the full path but
the path content is undefined if the length is larger than the
provided buffer.  This makes its behavior different from strlcpy() and
requires error handling in all its users even when they don't care
about truncation.  In addition, the implementation can actully be
simplified by making it behave properly in strlcpy() style.

* Update kernfs_path_from_node_locked() to always fill up the buffer
  with path.  If the buffer is not large enough, the output is
  truncated and terminated.

* kernfs_path() no longer needs error handling.  Make it a simple
  inline wrapper around kernfs_path_from_node().

* sysfs_warn_dup()'s use of kernfs_path() doesn't need error handling.
  Updated accordingly.

* cgroup_path()'s use of kernfs_path() updated to retain the old
  behavior.

8387ff2577 vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash
We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
instead of late.

A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
NULL pointer as a no-salt.

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)"

e99ed4de17 kernfs_path_from_node_locked: don't overwrite nlen
We've calculated @len to be the bytes we need for '/..' entries from
@kn_from to the common ancestor, and calculated @nlen to be the extra
bytes we need to get from the common ancestor to @kn_to.  We use them
as such at the end.  But in the loop copying the actual entries, we
overwrite @nlen.  Use a temporary variable for that instead.

Without this, the return length, when the buffer is large enough, is
wrong.  (When the buffer is NULL or too small, the returned value is
correct. The buffer contents are also correct.)

Interestingly, no callers of this function are affected by this as of
yet.  However the upcoming cgroup_show_path() will be.

3a3a5fece6 fs: kernfs: Replace CURRENT_TIME by current_fs_time()
This is in preparation for the series that transitions
filesystem timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make
them y2038 safe.

CURRENT_TIME macro will be deleted before merging the
aforementioned series.

Use current_fs_time() instead of CURRENT_TIME for inode
timestamps.

struct kernfs_node is associated with a sysfs file/ directory.
Truncate the values to appropriate time granularity when
writing to inode timestamps of the files.

ktime_get_real_ts() is used to obtain times for
struct kernfs_iattrs. Since these times are later assigned to
inode times using timespec_truncate() for all filesystem based
operations, we can save the supers list traversal time here by
using ktime_get_real_ts() directly.

b2a209ffa6 Revert "kernfs: do not account ino_ida allocations to memcg"
Currently, all kmem allocations (namely every kmem_cache_alloc, kmalloc,
alloc_kmem_pages call) are accounted to memory cgroup automatically.
Callers have to explicitly opt out if they don't want/need accounting
for some reason.  Such a design decision leads to several problems:

 - kmalloc users are highly sensitive to failures, many of them
   implicitly rely on the fact that kmalloc never fails, while memcg
   makes failures quite plausible.

 - A lot of objects are shared among different containers by design.
   Accounting such objects to one of containers is just unfair.
   Moreover, it might lead to pinning a dead memcg along with its kmem
   caches, which aren't tiny, which might result in noticeable increase
   in memory consumption for no apparent reason in the long run.

 - There are tons of short-lived objects. Accounting them to memcg will
   only result in slight noise and won't change the overall picture, but
   we still have to pay accounting overhead.

For more info, see

 - http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151105144002.GB15111%40dhcp22.suse.cz
 - http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151106090555.GK29259@esperanza

Therefore this patchset switches to the white list policy.  Now kmalloc
users have to explicitly opt in by passing __GFP_ACCOUNT flag.

Currently, the list of accounted objects is quite limited and only
includes those allocations that (1) are known to be easily triggered
from userspace and (2) can fail gracefully (for the full list see patch
no.  6) and it still misses many object types.  However, accounting only
those objects should be a satisfactory approximation of the behavior we
used to have for most sane workloads.

This patch (of 6):

Revert 499611ed45 ("kernfs: do not account ino_ida allocations
to memcg").

Black-list kmem accounting policy (aka __GFP_NOACCOUNT) turned out to be
fragile and difficult to maintain, because there seem to be many more
allocations that should not be accounted than those that should be.
Besides, false accounting an allocation might result in much worse
consequences than not accounting at all, namely increased memory
consumption due to pinned dead kmem caches.

So it was decided to switch to the white-list policy.  This patch reverts
bits introducing the black-list policy.  The white-list policy will be
introduced later in the series.

Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
  that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
  permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
  if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.

  Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
  be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
  proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
  sysfs.  Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.

  There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement.  Only filesystems
  mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
  the test for empty directories was insufficient.  So in my tree
  directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
  created specially.  Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
  directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
  shows that the directory is empty.  Special creation of directories
  for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
  it's purpose.  I asked container developers from the various container
  projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
  points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.

  This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
  mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
  proc and sysfs.  I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
  unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
  proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
  on the previous mount of proc and sysfs.  So for now only the atime,
  read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
  consistent are enforced.  Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
  attributes remains for another time.

  This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
  descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed.  Recently readlink of
  /proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
  meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
  converted) and is not now actively wrong.

  There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
  I will mention briefly.

  It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
  At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
  be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem.  With user
  namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
  allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
  to outside of the bind mount.  This is challenging to fix and doubly
  so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
  performance part of pathname resolution.

  As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
  developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
  files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
  in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
  such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
  they are recognized"

499611ed45 kernfs: do not account ino_ida allocations to memcg
root->ino_ida is used for kernfs inode number allocations. Since IDA has
a layered structure, different IDs can reside on the same layer, which
is currently accounted to some memory cgroup. The problem is that each
kmem cache of a memory cgroup has its own directory on sysfs (under
/sys/fs/kernel/<cache-name>/cgroup). If the inode number of such a
directory or any file in it gets allocated from a layer accounted to the
cgroup which the cache is created for, the cgroup will get pinned for
good, because one has to free all kmem allocations accounted to a cgroup
in order to release it and destroy all its kmem caches. That said we
must not account layers of ino_ida to any memory cgroup.

Since per net init operations may create new sysfs entries directly
(e.g. lo device) or indirectly (nf_conntrack creates a new kmem cache
per each namespace, which, in turn, creates new sysfs entries), an easy
way to reproduce this issue is by creating network namespace(s) from
inside a kmem-active memory cgroup.

dfeb0750b6 kernfs: remove KERNFS_STATIC_NAME
When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid
making a separate copy of its name.  It's currently only used for sysfs
attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged.
There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted
dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the
rodata section.

Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(),
there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around.  Remove it.

Because it is possible that kernfs_link_sibling() couldn't find

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot updates for cgroup:

   - The biggest one is cgroup's conversion to kernfs.  cgroup took
     after the long abandoned vfs-entangled sysfs implementation and
     made it even more convoluted over time.  cgroup's internal objects
     were fused with vfs objects which also brought in vfs locking and
     object lifetime rules.  Naturally, there are places where vfs rules
     don't fit and nasty hacks, such as credential switching or lock
     dance interleaving inode mutex and cgroup_mutex with object serial
     number comparison thrown in to decide whether the operation is
     actually necessary, needed to be employed.

     After conversion to kernfs, internal object lifetime and locking
     rules are mostly isolated from vfs interactions allowing shedding
     of several nasty hacks and overall simplification.  This will also
     allow implmentation of operations which may affect multiple cgroups
     which weren't possible before as it would have required nesting
     i_mutexes.

   - Various simplifications including dropping of module support,
     easier cgroup name/path handling, simplified cgroup file type
     handling and task_cg_lists optimization.

   - Prepatory changes for the planned unified hierarchy, which is still
     a patchset away from being actually operational.  The dummy
     hierarchy is updated to serve as the default unified hierarchy.
     Controllers which aren't claimed by other hierarchies are
     associated with it, which BTW was what the dummy hierarchy was for
     anyway.

   - Various fixes from Li and others.  This pull request includes some
     patches to add missing slab.h to various subsystems.  This was
     triggered xattr.h include removal from cgroup.h.  cgroup.h
     indirectly got included a lot of files which brought in xattr.h

e61734c55c cgroup: remove cgroup->name
cgroup->name handling became quite complicated over time involving
dedicated struct cgroup_name for RCU protection.  Now that cgroup is
on kernfs, we can drop all of it and simply use kernfs_name/path() and
friends.  Replace cgroup->name and all related code with kernfs
name/path constructs.

* Reimplement cgroup_name() and cgroup_path() as thin wrappers on top
  of kernfs counterparts, which involves semantic changes.
  pr_cont_cgroup_name() and pr_cont_cgroup_path() added.

* cgroup->name handling dropped from cgroup_rename().

* All users of cgroup_name/path() updated to the new semantics.  Users
  which were formatting the string just to printk them are converted
  to use pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() instead, which simplifies things
  quite a bit.  As cgroup_name() no longer requires RCU read lock
  around it, RCU lockings which were protecting only cgroup_name() are
  removed.

v2: Comment above oom_info_lock updated as suggested by Michal.

v3: dummy_top doesn't have a kn associated and
    pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() ended up calling the matching kernfs
    functions with NULL kn leading to oops.  Test for NULL kn and
    print "/" if so.  This issue was reported by Fengguang Wu.

kernfs_node->parent and ->name are currently marked as "published"

Protect ->parent and ->name updates with a irq-safe spinlock
kernfs_rename_lock and implement the following accessors for these
fields.

* kernfs_name()		- format the node's name into the specified buffer
* kernfs_path()		- format the node's path into the specified buffer
* pr_cont_kernfs_name()	- pr_cont a node's name (doesn't need buffer)
* pr_cont_kernfs_path()	- pr_cont a node's path (doesn't need buffer)
* kernfs_get_parent()	- pin and return a node's parent

All can be called under any context.  The recursive sysfs_pathname()
in fs/sysfs/dir.c is replaced with kernfs_path() and

d35258ef70 kernfs: allow nodes to be created in the deactivated state
Currently, kernfs_nodes are made visible to userland on creation,
which makes it difficult for kernfs users to atomically succeed or
fail creation of multiple nodes.  In addition, if something fails
after creating some nodes, the created nodes might already be in use
and their active refs need to be drained for removal, which has the
potential to introduce tricky reverse locking dependency on active_ref
depending on how the error path is synchronized.

This patch introduces per-root flag KERNFS_ROOT_CREATE_DEACTIVATED.
If set, all nodes under the root are created in the deactivated state
and stay invisible to userland until explicitly enabled by the new
kernfs_activate() API.  Also, nodes which have never been activated
are guaranteed to bypass draining on removal thus allowing error paths
to not worry about lockding dependency on active_ref draining.

b9c9dad0c4 kernfs: add missing kernfs_active() checks in directory operations
kernfs_iop_lookup(), kernfs_dir_pos() and kernfs_dir_next_pos() were
missing kernfs_active() tests before using the found kernfs_node.  As
deactivated state is currently visible only while a node is being
removed, this doesn't pose an actual problem.  e.g. lookup succeeding
on a deactivated node doesn't harm anything as the eventual file
operations are gonna fail and those failures are indistinguishible
from the cases in which the lookups had happened before the node was
deactivated.

However, we're gonna allow new nodes to be created deactivated and
then activated explicitly by the kernfs user when it sees fit.  This
is to support atomically making multiple nodes visible to userland and
thus those nodes must not be visible to userland before activated.

Let's plug the lookup and readdir holes so that deactivated nodes are
invisible to userland.

07c7530dd4 kernfs: invoke dir_ops while holding active ref of the target node
kernfs_dir_ops are currently being invoked without any active
reference, which makes it tricky for the invoked operations to
determine whether the objects associated those nodes are safe to
access and will remain that way for the duration of such operations.

kernfs already has active_ref mechanism to deal with this which makes
the removal of a given node the synchronization point for gating the
file operations.  There's no reason for dir_ops to be any different.
Update the dir_ops handling so that active_ref is held while the
dir_ops are executing.  This guarantees that while a dir_ops is
executing the target nodes stay alive.

As kernfs_dir_ops doesn't have any in-kernel user at this point, this
doesn't affect anybody.

6b0afc2a21 kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers
Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself.  This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference.  While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing.  For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.

This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously.  If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.

The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self.  This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core.  kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self
node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is
balanced afterwards.  __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an
early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.

This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy.  The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node.  The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path.  kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.

This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback().  A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once.  An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion.  All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false.  This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.

Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public
functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection().
kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be
used to cater to more complex cases.

v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
    and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.  Fix it.
    Reported by kbuild test bot.

v3: kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() separated out from
    kernfs_remove_self() and exposed as public API.

81c173cb5e kernfs: remove KERNFS_REMOVED
KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so
that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or
renaming it; however, its role overlaps that of deactivation.

It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in
progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation
- KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new
file operations.  There's no reason to have them separate making
things more complex than necessary.

This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED.

* Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life
  deactivated.  This means that we now use both atomic_add() and
  atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN.  The compiler
  generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation
  can't be represented as a positive number.  Nothing is actually
  broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs
  which negates the subtrahend..

* A new helper kernfs_active() which tests whether kn->active >= 0 is
  added for convenience and lockdep annotation.  All KERNFS_REMOVED
  tests are replaced with negated kernfs_active() tests.

* __kernfs_remove() is updated to deactivate, but not drain, all nodes
  in the subtree instead of setting KERNFS_REMOVED.  This removes
  deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(), which is now renamed to
  kernfs_drain().

* Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with
  checks on the active ref.

* Some comment style updates in the affected area.

v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring.  kernfs_active()
    dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead.  RB_EMPTY_NODE()
    used in the lookup paths.

v3: Reverted most of v2 except for creating a new node with

182fd64b66 kernfs: remove KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and add kernfs_lockdep()
There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep
annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask.
The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active()
while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate().

While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the
deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it
needlessly diverges code paths.  Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF.

While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP
flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled
out when not enabled.

v2: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor
    KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag").  As the earlier patch already added
    KERNFS_LOCKDEP tests to kernfs_deactivate(), those additions are
    dropped from this patch and the existing ones are simply converted
    to kernfs_lockdep().

988cd7afb3 kernfs: remove kernfs_addrm_cxt
kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were
added because there were operations which should be performed outside
kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes.  The necessary
operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by
kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which
relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed
directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish()
performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path
too.

This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove()
and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish().

* kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex itself.
  sysfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from
  all users.

* __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining
  it to kernfs_addrm_cxt.  Its callers are updated to grab and release
  kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around
  it.

v2: Rebased on top of "kernfs: associate a new kernfs_node with its
    parent on creation" which dropped @parent from kernfs_add_one().

ccf02aaf81 kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from kernfs_deactivate()
kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of
the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently
is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race
problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are
multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its
addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion
before returning.

It can be easily fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation
from kernfs_addrm_finish() to kernfs_deactivated().  The function may
be called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.

35beab0635 kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature return
The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if
kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same
node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its
descendants.  While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be
called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is
in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult
to enforce.  It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as
the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is
accessible.

The current behavior in such situations is broken.  Whoever enters
removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then
deactivates.  Following removers either return as soon as it notices
that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it
has already been removed from the hierarchy.  In both cases, the
following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should
be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one.

This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through
recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules.

* When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base
  ref.

* Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked
  until the target node is fully deactivated and removed.

To achieve the above, removal path now first marks all descendants
including self REMOVED and then deactivates and unlinks leftmost
descendant one-by-one.  kernfs_deactivate() is called directly from
__kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs kernfs_mutex for each
descendant to drain active refs.  As this means that multiple removers
can enter kernfs_deactivate() for the same node, the function is
updated so that it can handle multiple deactivators of the same node -
only one actually deactivates but all wait till drain completion.

The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets
unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained.  Combined
with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any
invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and
all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed.

v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same
    loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate().  This is to
    allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later.

    Root node removal was broken in v1 patch.  Fixed.

v3: Revert most of v2 except for root node removal fix and
    simplification of KERNFS_REMOVED setting loop.

v4: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor
    KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag").

abd54f028e kernfs: replace kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq
kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion
from kernfs_put_active() to kernfs_deactivate().  We now allow
multiple racing removals of the same node and the current removal
scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return
before the node is properly deactivated if it races against another
removal.  The removal path will be restructured to address the issue.

To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters,
this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with
kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq.  This makes deactivation event
notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path
is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off
kernfs_node.

db4aad209b kernfs: associate a new kernfs_node with its parent on creation
Once created, a kernfs_node is always destroyed by kernfs_put().
Since ba7443bc65 ("sysfs, kernfs: implement
kernfs_create/destroy_root()"), kernfs_put() depends on kernfs_root()
to locate the ino_ida.  kernfs_root() in turn depends on
kernfs_node->parent being set for !dir nodes.  This means that
kernfs_put() of a !dir node requires its ->parent to be initialized.

This leads to oops when a newly created !dir node is destroyed without
going through kernfs_add_one() or after failing kernfs_add_one()
before ->parent is set.  kernfs_root() invoked from kernfs_put() will
try to dereference NULL parent.

Fix it by moving parent association to kernfs_new_node() from
kernfs_add_one().  kernfs_new_node() now takes @parent instead of
@root and determines the root from the parent and also sets the new
node's parent properly.  @parent parameter is removed from
kernfs_add_one().  As there's no parent when creating the root node,
__kernfs_new_node() which takes @root as before and doesn't set the
parent is used in that case.

This ensures that a kernfs_node in any stage in its life has its
parent associated and thus can be put.

which will oops.  None of the existing users invokes removal with NULL
@kn, so this bug doesn't actually trigger.

We can relocate kernfs_root() invocation after NULL check; however,
allowing NULL param tends to cause more confusion than actually
helping anything.  As there's no existing user, let's remove the
spurious NULL check.

1ae06819c7 kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers
Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself.  This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference.  While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing.  For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.

This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously.  If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.

The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self.  This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core.  kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref and deactivates using
__kernfs_deactivate_self(), removes the self node, and restores active
ref to the dead node using __kernfs_reactivate_self() so that the ref
is balanced afterwards.  __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes
an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.

This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy.  The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node.  The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path.  kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.

This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback().  A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once.  An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion.  All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false.  This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.

v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
    and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.  Fix it.

9f010c2ad5 kernfs: implement kernfs_{de|re}activate[_self]()
This patch implements four functions to manipulate deactivation state
- deactivate, reactivate and the _self suffixed pair.  A new fields
kernfs_node->deact_depth is added so that concurrent and nested
deactivations are handled properly.  kernfs_node->hash is moved so
that it's paired with the new field so that it doesn't increase the
size of kernfs_node.

A kernfs user's lock would normally nest inside active ref but during
removal the user may want to perform kernfs_remove() while holding the
said lock, which would introduce a reverse locking dependency.  This
function can be used to break such reverse dependency by allowing
deactivation step to performed separately outside user's critical
section.

This will also be used implement kernfs_remove_self().

895a068a52 kernfs: make kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated but not removed
Currently, kernfs_get_active() fails if the target node is
deactivated.  This is fine as a node always gets removed after
deactivation; however, we're gonna add reactivation so the assumption
won't hold.  It'd be incorrect for kernfs_get_active() to fail for a
node which was deactivated only temporarily.

This patch makes kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated
but not removed.  If the node gets reactivated (not yet implemented),
it will be retried and succeed.  If the node gets removed, it will be
woken up and fail.

This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove()
and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish().

* kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release the parent's active
  ref and kernfs_mutex itself.  kernfs_get/put_active() and
  kernfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from
  all users.

* __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining
  it to kernfs_addrm_cxt.  Its callers are updated to grab and release
  kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around
  it.

v2: Updated to fit the v2 restructuring of removal path.

f601f9a2bf kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from __kernfs_remove()
kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of
the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently
is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race
problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are
multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its
addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion
before returning.

It can be fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from
kernfs_addrm_finish() to __kernfs_remove().  The function may be
called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.

We end up dropping kernfs_mutex in the removal loop and the node may
be removed inbetween by someone else.  kernfs_unlink_sibling() is
updated to test whether the node has already been removed and return
accordingly.  __kernfs_remove() in turn performs post-unlinking
cleanup only if it actually unlinked the node.

KERNFS_HAS_MMAP test is moved out of the unmap function into
__kernfs_remove() so that we don't unlock kernfs_mutex unnecessarily.
While at it, drop the now meaningless "bin" qualifier from the
function name.

v2: Rewritten to fit the v2 restructuring of removal path.  HAS_MMAP
    test relocated.

45a140e587 kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature return
The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if
kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same
node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its
descendants.  While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be
called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is
in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult
to enforce.  It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as
the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is
accessible.

The current behavior in such situations is broken.  Whoever enters
removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then
deactivates.  Following removers either return as soon as it notices
that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it
has already been removed from the hierarchy.  In both cases, the
following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should
be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one.

This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through
recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules.

* When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base
  ref.

* Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked
  until the target node is fully deactivated and removed.

To achieve the above, removal path now first deactivates the subtree,
drains it and then unlinks one-by-one.  __kernfs_deactivate() is
called directly from __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs
kernfs_mutex for each descendant to drain active refs.  As this means
that multiple removers can enter __kernfs_deactivate() for the same
node, the function is updated so that it can handle multiple
deactivators of the same node - only one actually deactivates but all
wait till drain completion.

The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets
unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained.  Combined
with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any
invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and
all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed.

v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same
    loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate().  This is to
    allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later.

    Root node removal was broken in v1 patch.  Fixed.

ae34372eb8 kernfs: remove KERNFS_REMOVED
KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so
that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or
renaming it; however, its role overlaps those of deactivation and
removal from rbtree.

It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in
progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation
- KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new
file operations.  There's no reason to have them separate making
things more complex than necessary.

KERNFS_REMOVED is also used to decide whether a node is still visible
to vfs layer, which is rather redundant as equivalent determination
can be made by testing whether the node is on its parent's children
rbtree or not.

This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED.

* Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life
  deactivated.  This means that we now use both atomic_add() and
  atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN.  The compiler
  generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation
  can't be represented as a positive number.  Nothing is actually
  broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs
  which negates the subtrahend..

* KERNFS_REMOVED tests in add and rename paths are replaced with
  kernfs_get/put_active() of the target nodes.  Due to the way the add
  path is structured now, active ref handling is done in the callers
  of kernfs_add_one().  This will be consolidated up later.

* kernfs_remove_one() is updated to deactivate instead of setting
  KERNFS_REMOVED.  This removes deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(),
  which is now renamed to kernfs_drain().

* kernfs_dop_revalidate() now tests RB_EMPTY_NODE(&kn->rb) instead of
  KERNFS_REMOVED and KERNFS_REMOVED test in kernfs_dir_pos() is
  dropped.  A node which is removed from the children rbtree is not
  included in the iteration in the first place.  This means that a
  node may be visible through vfs a bit longer - it's now also visible
  after deactivation until the actual removal.  This slightly enlarged
  window difference doesn't make any difference to the userland.

* Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with
  checks on the active ref.

* Some comment style updates in the affected area.

v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring.  kernfs_active()
    dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead.  RB_EMPTY_NODE()
    used in the lookup paths.

a69d001cfc kernfs: remove KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and add kernfs_lockdep()
There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep
annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask.
The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active()
while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate().

While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the
deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it
needlessly diverges code paths.  Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and use
KERNFS_LOCKDEP in kernfs_deactivate() too.

While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP
flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled
out when not enabled.

ea1c472dfe kernfs: replace kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq
kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion
from kernfs_put_active() to kernfs_deactivate().  We now allow
multiple racing removals of the same node and the current removal
scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return
before the node is properly deactivated if it races against another
removal.  The removal path will be restructured to address the issue.

To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters,
this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with
kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq.  This makes deactivation event
notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path
is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off
kernfs_node.

80b9bbefc3 kernfs: add kernfs_dir_ops
Add support for mkdir(2), rmdir(2) and rename(2) syscalls.  This is
implemented through optional kernfs_dir_ops callback table which can
be specified on kernfs_create_root().  An implemented callback is
invoked when the matching syscall is invoked.

As kernfs keep dcache syncs with internal representation and
revalidates dentries on each access, the implementation of these
methods is extremely simple.  Each just discovers the relevant
kernfs_node(s) and invokes the requested callback which is allowed to
do any kernfs operations and the end result doesn't necessarily have
to match the expected semantics of the syscall.

This will be used to convert cgroup to use kernfs instead of its own
filesystem implementation.

19bbb92620 kernfs: allow negative dentries
kernfs doesn't allow negative dentries - kernfs_iop_lookup() returns
ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) instead of NULL which short-circuits negative dentry
creation and kernfs's d_delete() callback, kernfs_dop_delete(),
returns 1 for all removed nodes.  This in turn allows
kernfs_dop_revalidate() to assume that there's no negative dentry for
kernfs.

This worked fine for sysfs but kernfs is scheduled to grow mkdir(2)
support which depend on negative dentries.  This patch updates so that
kernfs allows negative dentries.  The required changes are almost
trivial - kernfs_iop_lookup() now returns NULL instead of
ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) when the target kernfs_node doesn't exist,
kernfs_dop_delete() is removed and kernfs_dop_revalidate() is updated
to check whether the target dentry is negative and request fresh
lookup if so.

2063d608f5 kernfs: mark static names with KERNFS_STATIC_NAME
Because sysfs used struct attribute which are supposed to stay
constant, sysfs didn't copy names when creating regular files.  The
specified string for name was supposed to stay constant.  Such
distinction isn't inherent for kernfs.  kernfs_create_file[_ns]()
should be able to take the same @name as kernfs_create_dir[_ns]()

As there can be huge number of sysfs attributes, we still want to be
able to use static names for sysfs attributes.  This patch renames
kernfs_create_file_ns_key() to __kernfs_create_file() and adds
@name_is_static parameter so that the caller can explicitly indicate
that @name can be used without copying.  kernfs is updated to use
KERNFS_STATIC_NAME to distinguish static and copied names.

ba7443bc65 sysfs, kernfs: implement kernfs_create/destroy_root()
There currently is single kernfs hierarchy in the whole system which
is used for sysfs.  kernfs needs to support multiple hierarchies to
allow other users.  This patch introduces struct kernfs_root which
serves as the root of each kernfs hierarchy and implements
kernfs_create/destroy_root().

* Each kernfs_root is associated with a root sd (sysfs_dentry).  The
  root is freed when the root sd is released and kernfs_destory_root()
  simply invokes kernfs_remove() on the root sd.  sysfs_remove_one()
  is updated to handle release of the root sd.  Note that ps_iattr
  update in sysfs_remove_one() is trivially updated for readability.

* Root sd's are now dynamically allocated using sysfs_new_dirent().
  Update sysfs_alloc_ino() so that it gives out ino from 1 so that the
  root sd still gets ino 1.

* While kernfs currently only points to the root sd, it'll soon grow
  fields which are specific to each hierarchy.  As determining a given
  sd's root will be necessary, sd->s_dir.root is added.  This backlink
  fits better as a separate field in sd; however, sd->s_dir is inside
  union with space to spare, so use it to save space and provide
  kernfs_root() accessor to determine the root sd.

* As hierarchies may be destroyed now, each mount needs to hold onto
  the hierarchy it's attached to.  Update sysfs_fill_super() and
  sysfs_kill_sb() so that they get and put the kernfs_root
  respectively.

* sysfs_root is replaced with kernfs_root which is dynamically created
  by invoking kernfs_create_root() from sysfs_init().

This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

fd7b9f7b97 sysfs, kernfs: move dir core code to fs/kernfs/dir.c
Move core dir code to fs/kernfs/dir.c.  fs/sysfs/dir.c now only
contains sysfs_warn_dup() and sysfs wrappers around kernfs interfaces.
The respective declarations in fs/sysfs/sysfs.h are moved to
fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h.

This is pure relocation.

v2: sysfs_symlink_target_lock was mistakenly relocated to kernfs.  It
    should remain with sysfs.  Fixed.

b8441ed279 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.
