afs: Make it possible to find the volumes that are using a server

2025-03-07T15:45:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit ca0e79a46097d54e4af46c67c852479d97af35bb ] Make it possible to find the afs_volume structs that are using an afs_server struct to aid in breaking volume callbacks. The way this is done is that each afs_volume already has an array of afs_server_entry records that point to the servers where that volume might be found. An afs_volume backpointer and a list node is added to each entry and each entry is then added to an RCU-traversable list on the afs_server to which it points.

afs: Fix overwriting of result of DNS query

2024-01-01T12:42:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit a9e01ac8c5ff32669119c40dfdc9e80eb0b7d7aa ] In afs_update_cell(), ret is the result of the DNS lookup and the errors are to be handled by a switch - however, the value gets clobbered in between by setting it to -ENOMEM in case afs_alloc_vlserver_list() fails. Fix this by moving the setting of -ENOMEM into the error handling for OOM failure. Further, only do it if we don't have an alternative error to return.

afs: Convert afs to use the new fscache API

2022-01-07T13:44:47+00:00

Change the afs filesystem to support the new afs driver. The following changes have been made: (1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register the filesystem as a whole. There's also no longer a cell cookie. (2) The volume cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with fscache_acquire_volume(). This function takes three parameters: a string representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the cache to use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for the volume. For afs, I've made it render the volume name string as: "afs,," and the coherency data is currently 0. (3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed directly to fscache_acquire_cookie(). The cache no longer calls back into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at other times. fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency information as before, except that these are now stored in big endian form instead of cpu endian. This makes the cache more copyable. (4) fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() are called when a file is opened or closed to prevent a cache file from being culled and to keep resources to hand that are needed to do I/O. fscache_use_cookie() is given an indication if the cache is likely to be modified locally (e.g. the file is open for writing). fscache_unuse_cookie() is given a coherency update if we had the file open for writing and will update that. (5) fscache_invalidate() is now given uptodate auxiliary data and a file size. It can also take a flag to indicate if this was due to a DIO write. This is wrapped into afs_fscache_invalidate() now for convenience. (6) fscache_resize() now gets called from the finalisation of afs_setattr(), and afs_setattr() does use/unuse of the cookie around the call to support this. (7) fscache_note_page_release() is called from afs_release_page(). (8) Use a killable wait in nfs_vm_page_mkwrite() when waiting for PG_fscache to be cleared. Render the parts of the cookie key for an afs inode cookie as big endian. Changes ======= ver #2: - Use gfpflags_allow_blocking() rather than using flag directly. - fscache_acquire_volume() now returns errors.

afs: Fix mmap coherency vs 3rd-party changes

2021-09-13T08:10:39+00:00

Fix the coherency management of mmap'd data such that 3rd-party changes become visible as soon as possible after the callback notification is delivered by the fileserver. This is done by the following means: (1) When we break a callback on a vnode specified by the CB.CallBack call from the server, we queue a work item (vnode->cb_work) to go and clobber all the PTEs mapping to that inode. This causes the CPU to trip through the ->map_pages() and ->page_mkwrite() handlers if userspace attempts to access the page(s) again. (Ideally, this would be done in the service handler for CB.CallBack, but the server is waiting for our reply before considering, and we have a list of vnodes, all of which need breaking - and the process of getting the mmap_lock and stripping the PTEs on all CPUs could be quite slow.) (2) Call afs_validate() from the ->map_pages() handler to check to see if the file has changed and to get a new callback promise from the server. Also handle the fileserver telling us that it's dropping all callbacks, possibly after it's been restarted by sending us a CB.InitCallBackState* call by the following means: (3) Maintain a per-cell list of afs files that are currently mmap'd (cell->fs_open_mmaps). (4) Add a work item to each server that is invoked if there are any open mmaps when CB.InitCallBackState happens. This work item goes through the aforementioned list and invokes the vnode->cb_work work item for each one that is currently using this server. This causes the PTEs to be cleared, causing ->map_pages() or ->page_mkwrite() to be called again, thereby calling afs_validate() again. I've chosen to simply strip the PTEs at the point of notification reception rather than invalidate all the pages as well because (a) it's faster, (b) we may get a notification for other reasons than the data being altered (in which case we don't want to clobber the pagecache) and (c) we need to ask the server to find out - and I don't want to wait for the reply before holding up userspace. This was tested using the attached test program: #include #include #include #include #include #include int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { size_t size = getpagesize(); unsigned char *p; bool mod = (argc == 3); int fd; if (argc != 2 && argc != 3) { fprintf(stderr, "Format: %s [mod]\n", argv[0]); exit(2); } fd = open(argv[1], mod ? O_RDWR : O_RDONLY); if (fd < 0) { perror(argv[1]); exit(1); } p = mmap(NULL, size, mod ? PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE : PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); if (p == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap"); exit(1); } for (;;) { if (mod) { p[0]++; msync(p, size, MS_ASYNC); fsync(fd); } printf("%02x", p[0]); fflush(stdout); sleep(1); } } It runs in two modes: in one mode, it mmaps a file, then sits in a loop reading the first byte, printing it and sleeping for a second; in the second mode it mmaps a file, then sits in a loop incrementing the first byte and flushing, then printing and sleeping. Two instances of this program can be run on different machines, one doing the reading and one doing the writing. The reader should see the changes made by the writer, but without this patch, they aren't because validity checking is being done lazily - only on entry to the filesystem. Testing the InitCallBackState change is more complicated. The server has to be taken offline, the saved callback state file removed and then the server restarted whilst the reading-mode program continues to run. The client machine then has to poke the server to trigger the InitCallBackState call.

afs: Fix cell removal

2020-10-16T13:38:26+00:00

Fix cell removal by inserting a more final state than AFS_CELL_FAILED that indicates that the cell has been unpublished in case the manager is already requeued and will go through again. The new AFS_CELL_REMOVED state will just immediately leave the manager function. Going through a second time in the AFS_CELL_FAILED state will cause it to try to remove the cell again, potentially leading to the proc list being removed.

afs: Fix cell purging with aliases

2020-10-16T13:38:26+00:00

When the afs module is removed, one of the things that has to be done is to purge the cell database. afs_cell_purge() cancels the management timer and then starts the cell manager work item to do the purging. This does a single run through and then assumes that all cells are now purged - but this is no longer the case. With the introduction of alias detection, a later cell in the database can now be holding an active count on an earlier cell (cell->alias_of). The purge scan passes by the earlier cell first, but this can't be got rid of until it has discarded the alias. Ordinarily, afs_unuse_cell() would handle this by setting the management timer to trigger another pass - but afs_set_cell_timer() doesn't do anything if the namespace is being removed (net->live == false). rmmod then hangs in the wait on cells_outstanding in afs_cell_purge(). Fix this by making afs_set_cell_timer() directly queue the cell manager if net->live is false. This causes additional management passes. Queueing the cell manager increments cells_outstanding to make sure the wait won't complete until all cells are destroyed.

afs: Fix cell refcounting by splitting the usage counter

2020-10-16T13:38:22+00:00

Management of the lifetime of afs_cell struct has some problems due to the usage counter being used to determine whether objects of that type are in use in addition to whether anyone might be interested in the structure. This is made trickier by cell objects being cached for a period of time in case they're quickly reused as they hold the result of a setup process that may be slow (DNS lookups, AFS RPC ops). Problems include the cached root volume from alias resolution pinning its parent cell record, rmmod occasionally hanging and occasionally producing assertion failures. Fix this by splitting the count of active users from the struct reference count. Things then work as follows: (1) The cell cache keeps +1 on the cell's activity count and this has to be dropped before the cell can be removed. afs_manage_cell() tries to exchange the 1 to a 0 with the cells_lock write-locked, and if successful, the record is removed from the net->cells. (2) One struct ref is 'owned' by the activity count. That is put when the active count is reduced to 0 (final_destruction label). (3) A ref can be held on a cell whilst it is queued for management on a work queue without confusing the active count. afs_queue_cell() is added to wrap this. (4) The queue's ref is dropped at the end of the management. This is split out into a separate function, afs_manage_cell_work(). (5) The root volume record is put after a cell is removed (at the final_destruction label) rather then in the RCU destruction routine. (6) Volumes hold struct refs, but aren't active users. (7) Both counts are displayed in /proc/net/afs/cells. There are some management function changes: (*) afs_put_cell() now just decrements the refcount and triggers the RCU destruction if it becomes 0. It no longer sets a timer to have the manager do this. (*) afs_use_cell() and afs_unuse_cell() are added to increase and decrease the active count. afs_unuse_cell() sets the management timer. (*) afs_queue_cell() is added to queue a cell with approprate refs. There are also some other fixes: (*) Don't let /proc/net/afs/cells access a cell's vllist if it's NULL. (*) Make sure that candidate cells in lookups are properly destroyed rather than being simply kfree'd. This ensures the bits it points to are destroyed also. (*) afs_dec_cells_outstanding() is now called in cell destruction rather than at "final_destruction". This ensures that cell->net is still valid to the end of the destructor. (*) As a consequence of the previous two changes, move the increment of net->cells_outstanding that was at the point of insertion into the tree to the allocation routine to correctly balance things.
