stat: fix inconsistency between struct stat and struct compat_stat

2022-04-27T12:38:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 932aba1e169090357a77af18850a10c256b50819 ] struct stat (defined in arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/stat.h) has 32-bit st_dev and st_rdev; struct compat_stat (defined in arch/x86/include/asm/compat.h) has 16-bit st_dev and st_rdev followed by a 16-bit padding. This patch fixes struct compat_stat to match struct stat. [ Historical note: the old x86 'struct stat' did have that 16-bit field that the compat layer had kept around, but it was changes back in 2003 by "struct stat - support larger dev_t": https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=e95b2065677fe32512a597a79db94b77b90c968d and back in those days, the x86_64 port was still new, and separate from the i386 code, and had already picked up the old version with a 16-bit st_dev field ] Note that we can't change compat_dev_t because it is used by compat_loop_info. Also, if the st_dev and st_rdev values are 32-bit, we don't have to use old_valid_dev to test if the value fits into them. This fixes -EOVERFLOW on filesystems that are on NVMe because NVMe uses the major number 259.

fs: add generic helper for filling statx attribute flags

2021-08-17T09:47:43+00:00

The immutable and append-only properties on an inode are published on the inode's i_flags and enforced by the VFS. Create a helper to fill the corresponding STATX_ATTR_ flags in the kstat structure from the inode's i_flags. Only orange was converted to use this helper. Other filesystems could use it in the future. Suggested-by: Miklos Szeredi Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

fs: fix reporting supported extra file attributes for statx()

2021-04-18T03:03:50+00:00

statx(2) notes that any attribute that is not indicated as supported by stx_attributes_mask has no usable value. Commits 801e523796004 ("fs: move generic stat response attr handling to vfs_getattr_nosec") and 712b2698e4c02 ("fs/stat: Define DAX statx attribute") sets STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT and STATX_ATTR_DAX, respectively, without setting stx_attributes_mask, which can cause xfstests generic/532 to fail. Fix this in the same way as commit 1b9598c8fb99 ("xfs: fix reporting supported extra file attributes for statx()") Fixes: 801e523796004 ("fs: move generic stat response attr handling to vfs_getattr_nosec") Fixes: 712b2698e4c02 ("fs/stat: Define DAX statx attribute") Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

fs: make helpers idmap mount aware

2021-01-24T13:27:20+00:00

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all relevant helpers in earlier patches. As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

stat: handle idmapped mounts

2021-01-24T13:27:17+00:00

The generic_fillattr() helper fills in the basic attributes associated with an inode. Enable it to handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is accessed through an idmapped mount map it into the mount's user namespace before we store the uid and gid. If the initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before.

fs: remove KSTAT_QUERY_FLAGS

2020-09-27T02:55:05+00:00

KSTAT_QUERY_FLAGS expands to AT_STATX_SYNC_TYPE, which itself already is a mask. Remove the double name, especially given that the prefix is a little confusing vs the normal AT_* flags. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Al Viro

fs: remove vfs_stat_set_lookup_flags

2020-09-27T02:55:05+00:00

The function really obsfucates checking for valid flags and setting the lookup flags. The fact that it returns -EINVAL through and unsigned return value, which is then used as boolean really doesn't help either. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Pull DAX updates part one from Darrick Wong: "After many years of LKML-wrangling about how to enable programs to query and influence the file data access mode (DAX) when a filesystem resides on storage devices such as persistent memory, Ira Weiny has emerged with a proposed set of standard behaviors that has not been shot down by anyone! We're more or less standardizing on the current XFS behavior and adapting ext4 to do the same. This is the first of a handful pull requests that will make ext4 and XFS present a consistent interface for user programs that care about DAX. We add a statx attribute that programs can check to see if DAX is enabled on a particular file. Then, we update the DAX documentation to spell out the user-visible behaviors that filesystems will guarantee (until the next storage industry shakeup). The on-disk inode flag has been in XFS for a few years now. Summary: - Clean up io_is_direct. - Add a new statx flag to indicate when file data access is being done via DAX (as opposed to the page cache). - Update the documentation for how system administrators and application programmers can take advantage of the (still experimental DAX) feature" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200505002016.1085071-1-ira.weiny@intel.com/ * tag 'vfs-5.8-merge-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: Documentation/dax: Update Usage section fs/stat: Define DAX statx attribute fs: Remove unneeded IS_DAX() check in io_is_direct()
