2015-04-12lift generic_write_checks() into callers of __generic_file_write_iter()Al Viro5-30/+60
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-12__generic_file_write_iter: keep ->ki_pos and return value consistentAl Viro1-14/+10
A side effect worth noting: in O_APPEND case we set ->ki_pos early, so if it turns out to be an error or a zero-length write, we'll end up with ->ki_pos modified. Safe, since all callers never look at the ->ki_pos after the call of __generic_file_write_iter() returning non-positive, all the way to caller of ->write_iter() and those discard ->ki_pos when getting that.

2015-04-12new_sync_write(): discard ->ki_pos unless the return value is positiveAl Viro1-1/+2
That allows ->write_iter() instances much more convenient life wrt iocb->ki_pos (and fixes several filesystems with borderline POSIX violations when zero-length write succeeds and changes the current position). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-12direct_IO: remove rw from a_ops->direct_IO()Omar Sandoval31-59/+42

2015-04-12direct_IO: use iov_iter_rw() instead of rw everywhereOmar Sandoval22-69/+69
The rw parameter to direct_IO is redundant with iov_iter->type, and treated slightly differently just about everywhere it's used: some users do rw & WRITE, and others do rw == WRITE where they should be doing a bitwise check. Simplify this with the new iov_iter_rw() helper, which always returns either READ or WRITE. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@osandov.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-04-12pcm: another weird API abuseAl Viro1-19/+20
readv() and writev() should _not_ ignore all but the first ->iov_len, among other things. Really weird abuse of those syscalls - it expects a vector element per channel, with identical lengths (it actually assumes them to be identical - no checking is done). readv() and writev() are really bad match for that. Unfortunately, userland API is userland API and we can't do anything about them. Converted to ->read_iter/->write_iter. Please, _please_ don't do anything of that kind when designing new interfaces. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-12infinibad: weird APIs switched to ->write_iter()Al Viro2-15/+23
Things Not To Do When Writing A Driver, part 1001st: have writev() and write() on the same file doing completely different things. As in, "interpret very different sets of commands". We _can_ handle that, but it's a bloody bad idea. Don't do that in new drivers. Ever. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-12kill do_sync_read/do_sync_writeAl Viro2-40/+0
all remaining instances of aio_{read,write} (all 4 of them) have explicit ->read and ->write resp.; do_sync_read/do_sync_write is never called by __vfs_read/__vfs_write anymore and no other users had been left. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-04-12switch drivers/char/mem.c to ->read_iter/->write_iterAl Viro1-9/+9
Note that _these_ guys have ->read() and ->write() left in place - they are eqiuvalent to what we'd get if we replaced those with NULL, but we are talking about hot paths here. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-12make new_sync_{read,write}() staticAl Viro59-153/+11
All places outside of core VFS that checked ->read and ->write for being NULL or called the methods directly are gone now, so NULL {read,write} with non-NULL {read,write}_iter will do the right thing in all cases. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-04-12p9_client_attach(): set fid->uid correctlyAl Viro1-0/+1
it's almost always equal to current_fsuid(), but there's an exception - if the first writeback fid is opened by non-root *and* that happens before root has done any lookups in /, we end up doing attach for root. The current code leaves the resulting FID owned by root from the server POV and by non-root from the client one. Unfortunately, it means that e.g. massive dcache eviction will leave that user buggered - they'll end up redoing walks from / *and* picking that FID every time. As soon as they try to create something, the things will get nasty. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-04-12aio_run_iocb(): kill dead checkAl Viro1-7/+0
We check if ->ki_pos is positive. However, by that point we have already done rw_verify_area(), which would have rejected such unless the file had been one of /dev/mem, /dev/kmem and /proc/kcore. All of which do not have vectored rw methods, so we would've bailed out even earlier. This check had been introduced before rw_verify_area() had been added there - in fact, it was a subset of checks done on sync paths by rw_verify_area() (back then the /dev/mem exception didn't exist at all). The rest of checks (mandatory locking, etc.) hadn't been added until later. Unfortunately, by the time the call of rw_verify_area() got added, the /dev/mem exception had already appeared, so it wasn't obvious that the older explicit check downstream had become dead code. It *is* a dead code, though, since the few files for which the exception applies do not have ->aio_{read,write}() or ->{read,write}_iter() and for them we won't reach that check anyway. What's more, even if we ever introduce vectored methods for /dev/mem and friends, they'll have to cope with negative positions anyway, since readv(2) and writev(2) are using the same checks as read(2) and write(2) - i.e. rw_verify_area(). Let's bury it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-12ioctx_alloc(): remove pointless checkAl Viro1-2/+1
Way, way back kiocb used to be picked from arrays, so ioctx_alloc() checked for multiplication overflow when calculating the size of such array. By the time fs/aio.c went into the tree (in 2002) they were already allocated one-by-one by kmem_cache_alloc(), so that check had already become pointless. Let's bury it...
