vboxsf: explicitly deny setlease attempts

[ Upstream commit 1ece2c43b88660ddbdf8ecb772e9c41ed9cda3dd ] vboxsf does not break leases on its own, so it can't properly handle the case where the hypervisor changes the data.

vboxsf: Avoid an spurious warning if load_nls_xxx() fails

2024-04-10T14:35:51+00:00

commit de3f64b738af57e2732b91a0774facc675b75b54 upstream. If an load_nls_xxx() function fails a few lines above, the 'sbi->bdi_id' is still 0. So, in the error handling path, we will call ida_simple_remove(..., 0) which is not allocated yet. In order to prevent a spurious "ida_free called for id=0 which is not allocated." message, tweak the error handling path and add a new label.

Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner: "This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs, xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant filesystems. The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes. Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the client decide to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g., backup applications). If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates. This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are actively queried. This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one. As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used. Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use coarse-grained timestamps. Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included: - Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all maintainers provided necessary Acks. - Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented as requiring accessors. - Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in. - Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers. - Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it removing a bunch of open-coding" * tag 'v6.6-vfs.ctime' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (107 commits) btrfs: convert to multigrain timestamps ext4: switch to multigrain timestamps xfs: switch to multigrain timestamps tmpfs: add support for multigrain timestamps fs: add infrastructure for multigrain timestamps fs: drop the timespec64 argument from update_time xfs: have xfs_vn_update_time gets its own timestamp fat: make fat_update_time get its own timestamp fat: remove i_version handling from fat_update_time ubifs: have ubifs_update_time use inode_update_timestamps btrfs: have it use inode_update_timestamps fs: drop the timespec64 arg from generic_update_time fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattr fs: remove silly warning from current_time gfs2: fix timestamp handling on quota inodes fs: rename i_ctime field to __i_ctime selinux: convert to ctime accessor functions security: convert to ctime accessor functions apparmor: convert to ctime accessor functions sunrpc: convert to ctime accessor functions ...

fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattr

2023-08-09T06:56:36+00:00

generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute (STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported, and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain timestamps. Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers (e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

vfs: get rid of old '->iterate' directory operation

2023-08-06T13:08:35+00:00

All users now just use '->iterate_shared()', which only takes the directory inode lock for reading. Filesystems that never got convered to shared mode now instead use a wrapper that drops the lock, re-takes it in write mode, calls the old function, and then downgrades the lock back to read mode. This way the VFS layer and other callers no longer need to care about filesystems that never got converted to the modern era. The filesystems that use the new wrapper are ceph, coda, exfat, jfs, ntfs, ocfs2, overlayfs, and vboxsf. Honestly, several of them look like they really could just iterate their directories in shared mode and skip the wrapper entirely, but the point of this change is to not change semantics or fix filesystems that haven't been fixed in the last 7+ years, but to finally get rid of the dual iterators.

vboxsf: Use flexible arrays for trailing string member

2023-07-26T21:55:35+00:00

The declaration of struct shfl_string used trailing fake flexible arrays for the string member. This was tripping FORTIFY_SOURCE since commit df8fc4e934c1 ("kbuild: Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3"). Replace the utf8 and utf16 members with actual flexible arrays, drop the unused ucs2 member, and retriain a 2 byte padding to keep the structure size the same.

Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook: "There are three areas of note: A bunch of strlcpy()->strscpy() conversions ended up living in my tree since they were either Acked by maintainers for me to carry, or got ignored for multiple weeks (and were trivial changes). The compiler option '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' has been enabled globally, and has been in -next for the entire devel cycle. This changes compiler diagnostics (though mainly just -Warray-bounds which is disabled) and potential UBSAN_BOUNDS and FORTIFY _warning_ coverage. In other words, there are no new restrictions, just potentially new warnings. Any new FORTIFY warnings we've seen have been fixed (usually in their respective subsystem trees). For more details, see commit df8fc4e934c12b. The under-development compiler attribute __counted_by has been added so that we can start annotating flexible array members with their associated structure member that tracks the count of flexible array elements at run-time. It is possible (likely?) that the exact syntax of the attribute will change before it is finalized, but GCC and Clang are working together to sort it out. Any changes can be made to the macro while we continue to add annotations. As an example of that last case, I have a treewide commit waiting with such annotations found via Coccinelle: https://git.kernel.org/linus/adc5b3cb48a049563dc673f348eab7b6beba8a9b Also see commit dd06e72e68bcb4 for more details.
