inotify: use fsnotify group lock helpers

2022-04-25T12:37:24+00:00

inotify inode marks pin the inode so there is no need to set the FSNOTIFY_GROUP_NOFS flag.

fsnotify: pass flags argument to fsnotify_alloc_group()

2022-04-25T12:37:12+00:00

Add flags argument to fsnotify_alloc_group(), define and use the flag FSNOTIFY_GROUP_USER in inotify and fanotify instead of the helper fsnotify_alloc_user_group() to indicate user allocation. Although the flag FSNOTIFY_GROUP_USER is currently not used after group allocation, we store the flags argument in the group struct for future use of other group flags.

inotify: move control flags from mask to mark flags

2022-04-25T12:37:06+00:00

The inotify control flags in the mark mask (e.g. FS_IN_ONE_SHOT) are not relevant to object interest mask, so move them to the mark flags. This frees up some bits in the object interest mask.

inotify: show inotify mask flags in proc fdinfo

2022-04-25T12:37:03+00:00

The inotify mask flags IN_ONESHOT and IN_EXCL_UNLINK are not "internal to kernel" and should be exposed in procfs fdinfo so CRIU can restore them.

inotify: simplify subdirectory registration with register_sysctl()

2022-01-22T06:33:35+00:00

There is no need to user boiler plate code to specify a set of base directories we're going to stuff sysctls under. Simplify this by using register_sysctl() and specifying the directory path directly. Move inotify_user sysctl to inotify_user.c while at it to remove clutter from kernel/sysctl.c.

fsnotify: Pass group argument to free_event

2021-10-27T10:34:18+00:00

For group-wide mempool backed events, like FS_ERROR, the free_event callback will need to reference the group's mempool to free the memory. Wire that argument into the current callers.

fsnotify: Add wrapper around fsnotify_add_event

2021-10-27T10:33:43+00:00

fsnotify_add_event is growing in number of parameters, which in most case are just passed a NULL pointer. So, split out a new fsnotify_insert_event function to clean things up for users who don't need an insert hook.

inotify: Don't force FS_IN_IGNORED

2021-10-27T10:33:29+00:00

According to Amir: "FS_IN_IGNORED is completely internal to inotify and there is no need to set it in i_fsnotify_mask at all, so if we remove the bit from the output of inotify_arg_to_mask() no functionality will change and we will be able to overload the event bit for FS_ERROR." This is done in preparation to overload FS_ERROR with the notification mechanism in fanotify.

ucounts: add missing data type changes

2021-08-09T20:45:02+00:00

commit f9c82a4ea89c3 ("Increase size of ucounts to atomic_long_t") changed the data type of ucounts/ucounts_max to long, but missed to adjust a few other places. This is noticeable on big endian platforms from user space because the /proc/sys/user/max_*_names files all contain 0. v4 - Made the min and max constants long so the sysctl values are actually settable on little endian machines. -- EWB Fixes: f9c82a4ea89c ("Increase size of ucounts to atomic_long_t") Signed-off-by: Sven Schnelle Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor Tested-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing Acked-by: Alexey Gladkov v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210721115800.910778-1-svens@linux.ibm.com v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210721125233.1041429-1-svens@linux.ibm.com v3: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210730062854.3601635-1-svens@linux.ibm.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/8735rijqlv.fsf_-_@disp2133 Signed-off-by: Eric W.
