Currently, there is a small window where ovl_obtain_alias() can
race with ovl_instantiate() and create two different overlay inodes
with the same underlying real non-dir non-hardlink inode.
The race requires an adversary to guess the file handle of the
yet to be created upper inode and decode the guessed file handle
after ovl_creat_real(), but before ovl_instantiate().
This race does not affect overlay directory inodes, because those
are decoded via ovl_lookup_real() and not with ovl_obtain_alias().
This patch fixes the race, by using inode_insert5() to add a newly
created inode to cache.
If the newly created inode apears to already exist in cache (hashed
by the same real upper inode), we instantiate the dentry with the old
inode and drop the new inode, instead of silently not hashing the new
inode.

vfs_mkdir() may succeed and leave the dentry passed to it unhashed and
negative. ovl_create_real() is the last caller breaking when that

Also used ovl_create_temp() in ovl_create_index() instead of calling
ovl_do_mkdir() directly, so now all callers of ovl_do_mkdir() are routed
through ovl_create_real(), which paves the way for Al's fix for non-hashed
result from vfs_mkdir().

Overlayfs should cope with online changes to underlying layer
without crashing the kernel, which is what xfstest overlay/019
checks.
This test may sometimes trigger WARN_ON() in ovl_create_or_link()
when linking an overlay inode that has been changed on underlying
layer.
Remove those WARN_ON() to prevent the stress test from failing.

With NFS export feature enabled, when overlay inode nlink drops to

The functions ovl_lower_positive() and ovl_check_empty_dir() both take
inode mutex on the real lower dir under ovl_want_write() which takes
the upper_mnt sb_writers lock.
While this is not a clear locking order or layering violation, it creates
an undesired lock dependency between two unrelated layers for no good
reason.
This lock dependency materializes to a false(?) positive lockdep warning
when calling rmdir() on a nested overlayfs, where both nested and
underlying overlayfs both use the same fs type as upper layer.
rmdir() on the nested overlayfs creates the lock chain:
sb_writers of upper_mnt (e.g. tmpfs) in ovl_do_remove()
ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[] of lower overlay dir in ovl_lower_positive()
rmdir() on the underlying overlayfs creates the lock chain in
reverse order:
ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[] of lower overlay dir in vfs_rmdir()
sb_writers of nested upper_mnt (e.g. tmpfs) in ovl_do_remove()
To rid of the unneeded locking dependency, move both ovl_lower_positive()
and ovl_check_empty_dir() to before ovl_want_write() in rmdir() and
rename() implementation.
This change spreads the pieces of ovl_check_empty_and_clear() directly
inside the rmdir()/rename() implementations so the helper is no longer
needed and removed.

An "origin && non-merge" upper dir may have leftover whiteouts that
were created in past mount. overlayfs does no clear this dir when we
delete it, which may lead to rmdir fail or temp file left in workdir.
Simple reproducer:
mkdir lower upper work merge
mkdir -p lower/dir
touch lower/dir/a
mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,\
workdir=work merge
rm merge/dir/a
umount merge
rm -rf lower/*
touch lower/dir (*)
mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,\
workdir=work merge
rm -rf merge/dir
Syslog dump:
overlayfs: cleanup of 'work/#7' failed (-39)
(*): if we do not create the regular file, the result is different:
rm: cannot remove "dir/": Directory not empty
This patch adds a check for the case of non-merge dir that may contain
whiteouts, and calls ovl_check_empty_dir() to check and clear whiteouts
from upper dir when an empty dir is being deleted.

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

Impure directories are ones which contain objects with origins (i.e. those
that have been copied up). These are relevant to readdir operation only
because of the d_ino field, no other transformation is necessary. Also a
directory can become impure between two getdents(2) calls.
This patch creates a cache for impure directories. Unlike the cache for
merged directories, this one only contains entries with origin and is not
refcounted but has a its lifetime tied to that of the dentry.
Similarly to the merged cache, the impure cache is invalidated based on a
version number. This version number is incremented when an entry with
origin is added or removed from the directory.
If the cache is empty, then the impure xattr is removed from the directory.
This patch also fixes up handling of d_ino for the ".." entry if the parent
directory is merged.

With inodes index enabled, an overlay inode nlink counts the union of upper
and non-covered lower hardlinks. During the lifetime of a non-pure upper
inode, the following nlink modifying operations can happen:
1. Lower hardlink copy up
2. Upper hardlink created, unlinked or renamed over
3. Lower hardlink whiteout or renamed over
For the first, copy up case, the union nlink does not change, whether the
operation succeeds or fails, but the upper inode nlink may change.
Therefore, before copy up, we store the union nlink value relative to the
lower inode nlink in the index inode xattr trusted.overlay.nlink.
For the second, upper hardlink case, the union nlink should be incremented
or decremented IFF the operation succeeds, aligned with nlink change of the
upper inode. Therefore, before link/unlink/rename, we store the union nlink
value relative to the upper inode nlink in the index inode.
For the last, lower cover up case, we simplify things by preceding the
whiteout or cover up with copy up. This makes sure that there is an index
upper inode where the nlink xattr can be stored before the copied up upper
entry is unlink.
Return the overlay inode nlinks for indexed upper inodes on stat(2).

Bad index entries are entries whose name does not match the
origin file handle stored in trusted.overlay.origin xattr.
Bad index entries could be a result of a system power off in
the middle of copy up.
Stale index entries are entries whose origin file handle is
stale. Stale index entries could be a result of copying layers
or removing lower entries while the overlay is not mounted.
The case of copying layers should be detected earlier by the
verification of upper root dir origin and index dir origin.
Both bad and stale index entries are detected and removed
on mount.

An upper dir is marked "impure" to let ovl_iterate() know that this
directory may contain non pure upper entries whose d_ino may need to be
read from the origin inode.
We already mark a non-merge dir "impure" when moving a non-pure child
entry inside it, to let ovl_iterate() know not to iterate the non-merge
dir directly.
Mark also a merge dir "impure" when moving a non-pure child entry inside
it and when copying up a child entry inside it.
This can be used to optimize ovl_iterate() to perform a "pure merge" of
upper and lower directories, merging the content of the directories,
without having to read d_ino from origin inodes.

When moving a merge dir or non-dir with copy up origin into a non-merge
upper dir (a.k.a pure upper dir), we are marking the target parent dir
"impure". ovl_iterate() iterates pure upper dirs directly, because there is
no need to filter out whiteouts and merge dir content with lower dir. But
for the case of an "impure" upper dir, ovl_iterate() will not be able to
iterate the real upper dir directly, because it will need to lookup the
origin inode and use it to fill d_ino.

An upper type non directory dentry that is a copy up target
should have a reference to its lower copy up origin.
There are three ways for an upper type dentry to be instantiated:
1. A lower type dentry that is being copied up
2. An entry that is found in upper dir by ovl_lookup()
3. A negative dentry is hardlinked to an upper type dentry
In the first case, the lower reference is set before copy up.
In the second case, the lower reference is found by ovl_lookup().
In the last case of hardlinked upper dentry, it is not easy to
update the lower reference of the negative dentry. Instead,
drop the newly hardlinked negative dentry from dcache and let
the next access call ovl_lookup() to find its lower reference.
This makes sure that the inode number reported by stat(2) after
the hardlink is created is the same inode number that will be
reported by stat(2) after mount cycle, which is the inode number
of the lower copy up origin of the hardlink source.
NOTE that this does not fix breaking of lower hardlinks on copy
up, but only fixes the case of lower nlink == 1, whose upper copy
up inode is hardlinked in upper dir.

Add a system call to make extended file information available, including
file creation and some attribute flags where available through the
underlying filesystem.
The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a
u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the
synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*()
function.
Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions
vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage.
========
OVERVIEW
========
The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall
with an extended stat structure.
A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The
following have been included:
(1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.
(2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
future expansion.
(3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an
__s64).
(4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could
be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of
FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime).
This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could
be exported by NFSD [Steve French].
(5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a
netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly
without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas
Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC).
(6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks
its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust]
(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC).
And the following have been left out for future extension:
(7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh
Kumar].
Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves
i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get
it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead.
(There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since
not all filesystems do this the same way).
(8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such
as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen)
[Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert].
(9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers
[Bernd Schubert].
(This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the
open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to
whether it's a security hole or not).
(10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger].
(No particular data were offered, but things like last backup
timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come
into this category).
(11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A
filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if
that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't
exist or are fabricated locally...
(This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea
for this).
(12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in
struct xstat [Steve French].
(Deferred to fsinfo).
(13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the
granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French].
(Deferred to fsinfo).
(14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags.
Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4
define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel
may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too).
(Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general
feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't
be exposed through statx this way).
(15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer,
Michael Kerrisk].
(Deferred, probably to fsinfo. Finding out if there's an ACL or
seclabal might require extra filesystem operations).
(16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner].
(A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for
this - if there proves to be a need).
(17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this.
===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============
The new system call is:
int ret = statx(int dfd,
const char *filename,
unsigned int flags,
unsigned int mask,
struct statx *buffer);
The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a
similar way to fstatat(). There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be
emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is
also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL
filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd.
Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store
can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically
only affects network filesystems):
(1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this
respect.
(2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise
its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to
occur to get the timestamps correct.
(3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a
network filesystem. The resulting values should be considered
approximate.
mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of
interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to
get the basic set returned by stat(). It should be noted that asking for
more information may entail extra I/O operations.
buffer points to the destination for the data. This must be 256 bytes in
size.
======================
MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD
======================
The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute
set:
struct statx_timestamp {
__s64 tv_sec;
__s32 tv_nsec;
__s32 __reserved;
};
struct statx {
__u32 stx_mask;
__u32 stx_blksize;
__u64 stx_attributes;

__u32 stx_rdev_major;
__u32 stx_rdev_minor;
__u32 stx_dev_major;
__u32 stx_dev_minor;
__u64 __spare2[14];
};
The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are:
STATX_TYPE Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT
STATX_MODE Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT
STATX_NLINK Want/got stx_nlink
STATX_UID Want/got stx_uid

STATX_ATIME Want/got stx_atime{,_ns}
STATX_MTIME Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns}
STATX_CTIME Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns}
STATX_INO Want/got stx_ino
STATX_SIZE Want/got stx_size
STATX_BLOCKS Want/got stx_blocks
STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct]
STATX_BTIME Want/got stx_btime{,_ns}
STATX_ALL [All currently available stuff]
stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the
data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be
placed.
Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields
plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution. Note
that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond
fields will also be negative if not zero.
The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a
file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does. The following
attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value:
STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED File is compressed by the fs
STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE File is marked immutable
STATX_ATTR_APPEND File is append-only
STATX_ATTR_NODUMP File is not to be dumped
STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED File requires key to decrypt in fs
Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by:
KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS
[Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed
through this interface?]
New flags include:
STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT Object is an automount trigger
These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially,
depending on what they are.
Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes:
(0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize.
These are local system information and are always available.
(1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino,
stx_size, stx_blocks.
These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The
corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they
actually have valid values.
If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For
example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server,
unless as a byproduct of updating something requested.
If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as
UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask,
even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned
value will be a fabrication.
Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for
instance Windows reparse points.
(2) stx_rdev_*.
This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a
blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0.
(3) stx_btime.
Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist.

TESTING
=======
The following test program can be used to test the statx system call:
samples/statx/test-statx.c
Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine.
The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled.
Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to
another FSID. Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting
this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.
[root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx -A /warthog/data
statx(/warthog/data) = 0

FWIW, there's a bit of abuse of struct kstat in overlayfs object
creation paths - for one thing, it ends up with a very small subset
of struct kstat (mode + rdev), for another it also needs link in
case of symlinks and ends up passing it separately.
IMO it would be better to introduce a separate object for that.
In principle, we might even lift that thing into general API and switch
->mkdir()/->mknod()/->symlink() to identical calling conventions. Hell
knows, perhaps ->create() as well...

The benefit of making directories opaque on creation is that lookups can
stop short when they reach the original created directory, instead of
continue lookup the entire depth of parent directory stack.
The best case is overlay with N layers, performing lookup for first level
directory, which exists only in upper. In that case, there will be only
one lookup instead of N.

oe->opaque is set for
a) whiteouts
b) directories having the "trusted.overlay.opaque" xattr
Case b can be simplified, since setting the xattr always implies setting
oe->opaque. Also once set, the opaque flag is never cleared.
Don't need to set opaque flag for non-directories.

Add a module option to allow tuning the max size of absolute redirects.
Default is 256.
Size of relative redirects is naturally limited by the the underlying

Before introducing redirect_dir feature, the condition
!ovl_lower_positive(dentry) for a directory, implied that it is a pure
upper directory, which may be removed if empty.
Now that directory can be redirect, it is possible that upper does not
cover any lower (i.e. !ovl_lower_positive(dentry)), but the directory is a
merge (with redirected path) and maybe non empty.
Check for this case in ovl_remove_upper().
This change fixes the following test case from rename-pop-dir.py
of unionmount-testsuite:
"""Remove dir and rename old name"""
d = ctx.non_empty_dir()
d2 = ctx.no_dir()
ctx.rmdir(d, err=ENOTEMPTY)
ctx.rename(d, d2)
ctx.rmdir(d, err=ENOENT)
ctx.rmdir(d2, err=ENOTEMPTY)
./run --ov rename-pop-dir
/mnt/a/no_dir103: Expected error (Directory not empty) was not produced

Current code returns EXDEV when a directory would need to be copied up to
move. We could copy up the directory tree in this case, but there's
another, simpler solution: point to old lower directory from moved upper
directory.
This is achieved with a "trusted.overlay.redirect" xattr storing the path
relative to the root of the overlay. After such attribute has been set,
the directory can be moved without further actions required.
This is a backward incompatible feature, old kernels won't be able to
correctly mount an overlay containing redirected directories.

Check if something exists on the lower layer(s) under the target or rename
to decide if directory needs to be marked "opaque".
Marking opaque is done before the rename, and on failure the marking was
undone. Also the opaque xattr was removed if the target didn't cover
anything.
This patch changes behavior so that removal of "opaque" is not done in
either of the above cases. This means that directory may have the opaque
flag even if it doesn't cover anything. However this shouldn't affect the
performance or semantics of the overalay, while simplifying the code.

Currently ovl_lookup() checks existence of lower file even if there's a
non-directory on upper (which is always opaque). This is done so that
remove can decide whether a whiteout is needed or not.
It would be better to defer this check to unlink, since most of the time
the gathered information about opaqueness will be unused.
This adds a helper ovl_lower_positive() that checks if there's anything on
the lower layer(s).
The following patches also introduce changes to how the "opaque" attribute
is updated on directories: this attribute is added when the directory is
creted or moved over a whiteout or object covering something on the lower
layer. However following changes will allow the attribute to remain on the
directory after being moved, even if the new location doesn't cover
anything. Because of this, we need to check lower layers even for opaque
directories, so that whiteout is only created when necessary.
This function will later be also used to decide about marking a directory
opaque, so deal with negative dentries as well. When dealing with
negative, it's enough to check for being a whiteout
If the dentry is positive but not upper then it also obviously needs
whiteout/opaque.

No sense in opening special files on the underlying layers, they work just
as well if opened on the overlay.
Side effect is that it's no longer possible to connect one side of a pipe
opened on overlayfs with the other side opened on the underlying layer.
