jfs: Regular file corruption check

2025-08-28T14:28:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2d04df8116426b6c7b9f8b9b371250f666a2a2fb ] The reproducer builds a corrupted file on disk with a negative i_size value. Add a check when opening this file to avoid subsequent operation failures.

quota: port to mnt_idmap

2023-01-19T08:24:29+00:00

Convert to struct mnt_idmap. Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in 256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap. Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for bugs. Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

fs: rename current get acl method

2022-10-20T08:13:27+00:00

The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1]. The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl() inode operation is called from: acl_permission_check() -> check_acl() -> get_acl() which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g., overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We should avoid this unnecessary change. So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from ->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for permission checking during lookup can simply not implement ->get_inode_acl(). This is intended to be a non-functional change.

fs: pass dentry to set acl method

The vfs needs to interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1]. Since some filesystem rely on the dentry being available to them when setting posix acls (e.g., 9p and cifs) they cannot rely on set acl inode operation. But since ->set_acl() is required in order to use the generic posix acl xattr handlers filesystems that do not implement this inode operation cannot use the handler and need to implement their own dedicated posix acl handlers. Update the ->set_acl() inode method to take a dentry argument. This allows all filesystems to rely on ->set_acl(). As far as I can tell all codepaths can be switched to rely on the dentry instead of just the inode. Note that the original motivation for passing the dentry separate from the inode instead of just the dentry in the xattr handlers was because of security modules that call security_d_instantiate(). This hook is called during d_instantiate_new(), d_add(), __d_instantiate_anon(), and d_splice_alias() to initialize the inode's security context and possibly to set security.* xattrs. Since this only affects security.* xattrs this is completely irrelevant for posix acls.

attr: port attribute changes to new types

2022-06-26T16:18:56+00:00

Now that we introduced new infrastructure to increase the type safety for filesystems supporting idmapped mounts port the first part of the vfs over to them. This ports the attribute changes codepaths to rely on the new better helpers using a dedicated type. Before this change we used to take a shortcut and place the actual values that would be written to inode->i_{g,u}id into struct iattr. This had the advantage that we moved idmappings mostly out of the picture early on but it made reasoning about changes more difficult than it should be. The filesystem was never explicitly told that it dealt with an idmapped mount. The transition to the value that needed to be stored in inode->i_{g,u}id appeared way too early and increased the probability of bugs in various codepaths. We know place the same value in struct iattr no matter if this is an idmapped mount or not. The vfs will only deal with type safe vfs{g,u}id_t. This makes it massively safer to perform permission checks as the type will tell us what checks we need to perform and what helpers we need to use. Fileystems raising FS_ALLOW_IDMAP can't simply write ia_vfs{g,u}id to inode->i_{g,u}id since they are different types. Instead they need to use the dedicated vfs{g,u}id_to_k{g,u}id() helpers that map the vfs{g,u}id into the filesystem. The other nice effect is that filesystems like overlayfs don't need to care about idmappings explicitly anymore and can simply set up struct iattr accordingly directly.

quota: port quota helpers mount ids

2022-06-26T16:18:55+00:00

Port the is_quota_modification() and dqout_transfer() helper to type safe vfs{g,u}id_t. Since these helpers are only called by a few filesystems don't introduce a new helper but simply extend the existing helpers to pass down the mount's idmapping. Note, that this is a non-functional change, i.e. nothing will have happened here or at the end of this series to how quota are done! This a change necessary because we will at the end of this series make ownership changes easier to reason about by keeping the original value in struct iattr for both non-idmapped and idmapped mounts. For now we always pass the initial idmapping which makes the idmapping functions these helpers call nops. This is done because we currently always pass the actual value to be written to i_{g,u}id via struct iattr. While this allowed us to treat the {g,u}id values in struct iattr as values that can be directly written to inode->i_{g,u}id it also increases the potential for confusion for filesystems. Now that we are have dedicated types to prevent this confusion we will ultimately only map the value from the idmapped mount into a filesystem value that can be written to inode->i_{g,u}id when the filesystem actually updates the inode. So pass down the initial idmapping until we finished that conversion at which point we pass down the mount's idmapping. Since struct iattr uses an anonymous union with overlapping types as supported by the C standard, filesystems that haven't converted to ia_vfs{g,u}id won't see any difference and things will continue to work as before. In other words, no functional changes intended with this change.
