2015-03-18ovl: upper fs should not be R/Ohujianyang1-5/+19
After importing multi-lower layer support, users could mount a r/o partition as the left most lowerdir instead of using it as upperdir. And a r/o upperdir may cause an error like overlayfs: failed to create directory ./workdir/work during mount. This patch check the *s_flags* of upper fs and return an error if it is a r/o partition. The checking of *upper_mnt->mnt_sb->s_flags* can be removed now. This patch also remove /* FIXME: workdir is not needed for a R/O mount */ from ovl_fill_super() because: 1) for upper fs r/o case Setting a r/o partition as upper is prevented, no need to care about workdir in this case. 2) for "mount overlay -o ro" with a r/w upper fs case Users could remount overlayfs to r/w in this case, so workdir should not be omitted.

2015-03-18ovl: check lowerdir amount for non-upper mounthujianyang1-1/+7
Recently multi-lower layer mount support allow upperdir and workdir to be omitted, then cause overlayfs can be mount with only one lowerdir directory. This action make no sense and have potential risk. This patch check the total number of lower directories to prevent mounting overlayfs with only one directory. Also, an error message is added to indicate lower directories exceed OVL_MAX_STACK limit. Signed-off-by: hujianyang <hujianyang@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2015-03-18ovl: print error message for invalid mount optionshujianyang1-0/+1
Overlayfs should print an error message if an incorrect mount option is caught like other filesystems. After this patch, improper option input could be clearly known.

2015-01-08ovl: Prevent rw remount when it should be ro mountSeunghun Lee1-0/+12
Overlayfs should be mounted read-only when upper-fs is read-only or nonexistent. But now it can be remounted read-write and this can cause kernel panic. So we should prevent read-write remount when the above situation happens. Signed-off-by: Seunghun Lee <waydi1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2015-01-08ovl: Fix opaque regression in ovl_lookuphujianyang1-10/+13
Current multi-layer support overlayfs has a regression in .lookup(). If there is a directory in upperdir and a regular file has same name in lowerdir in a merged directory, lower file is hidden and upper directory is set to opaque in former case. But it is changed in present code. In lowerdir lookup path, if a found inode is not directory, the type checking of previous inode is missing. This inode will be copied to the lowerstack of ovl_entry directly. That will lead to several wrong conditions, for example, the reading of the directory in upperdir may return an error like: ls: reading directory .: Not a directory This patch makes the lowerdir lookup path check the opaque for non-directory file too.

2015-01-08ovl: Fix kernel panic while mounting overlayfshujianyang1-0/+3
The function ovl_fill_super() in recently multi-layer support version will incorrectly return 0 at error handling path and then cause kernel panic. This failure can be reproduced by mounting a overlayfs with upperdir and workdir in different mounts. And also, If the memory allocation of *lower_mnt* fail, this function may return an zero either. This patch fix this problem by setting *err* to proper error number before jumping to error handling path.

2014-12-13ovl: Use macros to present ovl_xattrhujianyang1-3/+1
This patch adds two macros: OVL_XATTR_PRE_NAME and OVL_XATTR_PRE_LEN to present ovl_xattr name prefix and its length. Also, a new macro OVL_XATTR_OPAQUE is introduced to replace old *ovl_opaque_xattr*. Fix the length of "trusted.overlay." to *16*.

"Suppose you have in one of the lower layers a filesystem with ->lookup()-enforced upper limit on name length. Pretty much every local fs has one, but... they are not all equal. 255 characters is the common upper limit, but e.g. jffs2 stops at 254, minixfs upper limit is somewhere from 14 to 60, depending upon version, etc. You are doing a lookup for something that is present in upper layer, but happens to be too long for one of the lower layers.

2014-12-13ovl: check whiteout on lowest layer as wellMiklos Szeredi1-17/+10

2014-12-13ovl: add mutli-layer infrastructureMiklos Szeredi1-34/+64
Add multiple lower layers to 'struct ovl_fs' and 'struct ovl_entry'. ovl_entry will have an array of paths, instead of just the dentry. This allows a compact array containing just the layers which exist at current point in the tree (which is expected to be a small number for the majority of dentries). The number of layers is not limited by this infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

2014-11-20ovl: rename filesystem type to "overlay"Miklos Szeredi1-3/+3
Some distributions carry an "old" format of overlayfs while mainline has a "new" format. The distros will possibly want to keep the old overlayfs alongside the new for compatibility reasons. To make it possible to differentiate the two versions change the name of the new one from "overlayfs" to "overlay".

2014-10-24fs: limit filesystem stacking depthMiklos Szeredi1-0/+9
Add a simple read-only counter to super_block that indicates how deep this is in the stack of filesystems. Previously ecryptfs was the only stackable filesystem and it explicitly disallowed multiple layers of itself. Overlayfs, however, can be stacked recursively and also may be stacked on top of ecryptfs or vice versa. To limit the kernel stack usage we must limit the depth of the filesystem stack. Initially the limit is set to 2. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2014-10-24overlayfs: implement show_optionsErez Zadok1-28/+48
This is useful because of the stacking nature of overlayfs. Users like to find out (via /proc/mounts) which lower/upper directory were used at mount time. AV: even failing ovl_parse_opt() could've done some kstrdup() AV: failure of ovl_alloc_entry() should end up with ENOMEM, not EINVAL Signed-off-by: Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.sunysb.edu> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2014-10-24overlayfs: add statfs supportAndy Whitcroft1-0/+40
Add support for statfs to the overlayfs filesystem. As the upper layer is the target of all write operations assume that the space in that filesystem is the space in the overlayfs. There will be some inaccuracy as overwriting a file will copy it up and consume space we were not expecting, but it is better than nothing. Use the upper layer dentry and mount from the overlayfs root inode, passing the statfs call to that filesystem.

2014-10-24overlay filesystemMiklos Szeredi1-0/+727
Overlayfs allows one, usually read-write, directory tree to be overlaid onto another, read-only directory tree. All modifications go to the upper, writable layer. This type of mechanism is most often used for live CDs but there's a wide variety of other uses. The implementation differs from other "union filesystem" implementations in that after a file is opened all operations go directly to the underlying, lower or upper, filesystems. This simplifies the implementation and allows native performance in these cases. The dentry tree is duplicated from the underlying filesystems, this enables fast cached lookups without adding special support into the VFS. This uses slightly more memory than union mounts, but dentries are relatively small. Currently inodes are duplicated as well, but it is a possible optimization to share inodes for non-directories. Opening non directories results in the open forwarded to the underlying filesystem. This makes the behavior very similar to union mounts (with the same limitations vs. fchmod/fchown on O_RDONLY file descriptors). Usage: mount -t overlayfs overlayfs -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper/upper,workdir=/upper/work /overlay The following cotributions have been folded into this patch: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>: - minimal remount support - use correct seek function for directories - initialise is_real before use - rename ovl_fill_cache to ovl_dir_read Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org>: - fix a deadlock in ovl_dir_read_merged - fix a deadlock in ovl_remove_whiteouts Erez Zadok <ezk@fsl.cs.sunysb.edu> - fix cleanup after WARN_ON Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@googlemail.com> - fix up permission to confirm to new API Robin Dong <hao.bigrat@gmail.com> - fix possible leak in ovl_new_inode - create new inode in ovl_link Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> - switch to __inode_permission() - copy up i_uid/i_gid from the underlying inode AV: - ovl_copy_up_locked() - dput(ERR_PTR(...)) on two failure exits - ovl_clear_empty() - one failure exit forgetting to do unlock_rename(), lack of check for udir being the parent of upper, dropping and regaining the lock on udir (which would require _another_ check for parent being right). - bogus d_drop() in copyup and rename [fix from your mail] - copyup/remove and copyup/rename races [fix from your mail] - ovl_dir_fsync() leaving ERR_PTR() in ->realfile - ovl_entry_free() is pointless - it's just a kfree_rcu() - fold ovl_do_lookup() into ovl_lookup() - manually assigning ->d_op is wrong. Just use ->s_d_op.
