[ Upstream commit e252f2ed1c8c6c3884ab5dd34e003ed21f1fe6e0 ]

This flag is a new way to configure ignore mask which allows adding and
removing the event flags FAN_ONDIR and FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD in ignore mask.

The legacy FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK flag would always ignore events on
directories and would ignore events on children depending on whether
the FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD flag was set in the (non ignored) mask.

FAN_MARK_IGNORE can be used to ignore events on children without setting
FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD in the mark's mask and will not ignore events on
directories unconditionally, only when FAN_ONDIR is set in ignore mask.

The new behavior is non-downgradable.  After calling fanotify_mark() with
FAN_MARK_IGNORE once, calling fanotify_mark() with FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK
on the same object will return EEXIST error.

Setting the event flags with FAN_MARK_IGNORE on a non-dir inode mark
has no meaning and will return ENOTDIR error.

The meaning of FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY is preserved with the new
FAN_MARK_IGNORE flag, but with a few semantic differences:

1. FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY is required for filesystem and mount
   marks and on an inode mark on a directory. Omitting this flag
   will return EINVAL or EISDIR error.

2. An ignore mask on a non-directory inode that survives modify could
   never be downgraded to an ignore mask that does not survive modify.
   With new FAN_MARK_IGNORE semantics we make that rule explicit -
   trying to update a surviving ignore mask without the flag
   FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY will return EEXIST error.

The conveniene macro FAN_MARK_IGNORE_SURV is added for
(FAN_MARK_IGNORE | FAN_MARK_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY), because the
common case should use short constant names.

[ Upstream commit 8698e3bab4dd7968666e84e111d0bfd17c040e77 ]

Commit ceaf69f8eadc ("fanotify: do not allow setting dirent events in
mask of non-dir") added restrictions about setting dirent events in the
mask of a non-dir inode mark, which does not make any sense.

For backward compatibility, these restictions were added only to new
(v5.17+) APIs.

It also does not make any sense to set the flags FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD or
FAN_ONDIR in the mask of a non-dir inode.  Add these flags to the
dir-only restriction of the new APIs as well.

Move the check of the dir-only flags for new APIs into the helper
fanotify_events_supported(), which is only called for FAN_MARK_ADD,
because there is no need to error on an attempt to remove the dir-only
flags from non-dir inode.

Fixes: ceaf69f8eadc ("fanotify: do not allow setting dirent events in mask of non-dir")

<title>fanotify: wire up FAN_RENAME event</title>

[ Upstream commit 8cc3b1ccd930fe6971e1527f0c4f1bdc8cb56026 ]

FAN_RENAME is the successor of FAN_MOVED_FROM and FAN_MOVED_TO
and can be used to get the old and new parent+name information in
a single event.

FAN_MOVED_FROM and FAN_MOVED_TO are still supported for backward
compatibility, but it makes little sense to use them together with
FAN_RENAME in the same group.

FAN_RENAME uses special info type records to report the old and
new parent+name, so reporting only old and new parent id is less
useful and was not implemented.
Therefore, FAN_REANAME requires a group with flag FAN_REPORT_NAME.

[ Upstream commit d61fd650e9d206a71fda789f02a1ced4b19944c4 ]

FAN_REPORT_FID is ambiguous in that it reports the fid of the child for
some events and the fid of the parent for create/delete/move events.

The new FAN_REPORT_TARGET_FID flag is an implicit request to report
the fid of the target object of the operation (a.k.a the child inode)
also in create/delete/move events in addition to the fid of the parent
and the name of the child.

To reduce the test matrix for uninteresting use cases, the new
FAN_REPORT_TARGET_FID flag requires both FAN_REPORT_NAME and
FAN_REPORT_FID.  The convenience macro FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME_TARGET
combines FAN_REPORT_TARGET_FID with all the required flags.

These events are limited to filesystem marks, so check it is the

Like inode events, FAN_FS_ERROR will require fid mode.  Therefore,
convert the verification during fanotify_mark(2) to require fid for any
non-fd event.  This means fid_mode will not only be required for inode
events, but for any event that doesn't provide a descriptor.

<title>fanotify: add pidfd support to the fanotify API</title>

[ Upstream commit af579beb666aefb17e9a335c12c788c92932baf1 ]

Introduce a new flag FAN_REPORT_PIDFD for fanotify_init(2) which
allows userspace applications to control whether a pidfd information
record containing a pidfd is to be returned alongside the generic
event metadata for each event.

If FAN_REPORT_PIDFD is enabled for a notification group, an additional
struct fanotify_event_info_pidfd object type will be supplied
alongside the generic struct fanotify_event_metadata for a single
event. This functionality is analogous to that of FAN_REPORT_FID in
terms of how the event structure is supplied to a userspace
application. Usage of FAN_REPORT_PIDFD with
FAN_REPORT_FID/FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME is permitted, and in this case a
struct fanotify_event_info_pidfd object will likely follow any struct
fanotify_event_info_fid object.

Currently, the usage of the FAN_REPORT_TID flag is not permitted along
with FAN_REPORT_PIDFD as the pidfd API currently only supports the
creation of pidfds for thread-group leaders. Additionally, usage of
the FAN_REPORT_PIDFD flag is limited to privileged processes only
i.e. event listeners that are running with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN
capability. Attempting to supply the FAN_REPORT_TID initialization
flags with FAN_REPORT_PIDFD or creating a notification group without
CAP_SYS_ADMIN will result with -EINVAL being returned to the caller.

In the event of a pidfd creation error, there are two types of error
values that can be reported back to the listener. There is
FAN_NOPIDFD, which will be reported in cases where the process
responsible for generating the event has terminated prior to the event
listener being able to read the event. Then there is FAN_EPIDFD, which
will be reported when a more generic pidfd creation error has occurred
when fanotify calls pidfd_create().

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 0aca67bb7f0d8c997dfef8ff0bfeb0afb361f0e6 ]

The copy_info_records_to_user() helper allows for the separation of
info record copying routines/conditionals from copy_event_to_user(),
which reduces the overall clutter within this function. This becomes
especially true as we start introducing additional info records in the
future i.e. struct fanotify_event_info_pidfd. On success, this helper
returns the total amount of bytes that have been copied into the user
supplied buffer and on error, a negative value is returned to the
caller.

The newly defined macro FANOTIFY_INFO_MODES can be used to obtain info
record types that have been enabled for a specific notification
group. This macro becomes useful in the subsequent patch when the
FAN_REPORT_PIDFD initialization flag is introduced.
