* saner proc_get_inode() calling conventionsAl Viro2013-02-261-14/+7
| | | | | | | | | Make it drop the pde in *all* cases when no new reference to it is put into an inode - both when an inode had already been set up (as we were already doing) and when inode allocation has failed. Makes for simpler logics in callers... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* proc: make struct proc_dir_entry::name a terminal array rather than a pointerDavid Howells2011-07-271-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since __proc_create() appends the name it is given to the end of the PDE structure that it allocates, there isn't a need to store a name pointer. Instead we can just replace the name pointer with a terminal char array of _unspecified_ length. The compiler will simply append the string to statically defined variables of PDE type overlapping any hole at the end of the structure and, unlike specifying an explicitly _zero_ length array, won't give a warning if you try to statically initialise it with a string of more than zero length. Also, whilst we're at it: (1) Move namelen to end just prior to name and reduce it to a single byte (name shouldn't be longer than NAME_MAX). (2) Move pde_unload_lock two places further on so that if it's four bytes in size on a 64-bit machine, it won't cause an unused hole in the PDE struct.

* proc: make struct proc_dir_entry::namelen unsigned intAlexey Dobriyan2011-03-231-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. namelen is declared "unsigned short" which hints for "maybe space savings". Indeed in 2.4 struct proc_dir_entry looked like: struct proc_dir_entry { unsigned short low_ino; unsigned short namelen; Now, low_ino is "unsigned int", all savings were gone for a long time. "struct proc_dir_entry" is not that countless to worry about it's size, anyway. 2. converting from unsigned short to int/unsigned int can only create problems, we better play it safe. Space is not really conserved, because of natural alignment for the next field. sizeof(struct proc_dir_entry) remains the same.

* fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup pathNick Piggin2011-01-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them. This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we have d_op but not the particular operation. Patched with: git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

* remove inode_setattrChristoph Hellwig2010-08-091-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers. This moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence. In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate so it was left out in the opencoded variant: spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs, which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

BKL doesn't matter to possible refcount leak as well. 2) proc_lookup_de() ------------------- Walking PDE list is protected by proc_subdir_lock(), proc_get_inode() is potentially blocking, all callers of proc_lookup_de() eventually end up from ->lookup hooks which is protected by directory's ->i_mutex -- BKL doesn't protect anything. 3) proc_readdir_de() -------------------- "." and ".." part doesn't need BKL, walking PDE list is under proc_subdir_lock, calling filldir callback is potentially blocking because it writes to luserspace. All proc_readdir_de() callers eventually come from ->readdir hook which is under directory's ->i_mutex -- BKL doesn't protect anything. 4) proc_root_readdir_de() ------------------------- proc_root_readdir_de is ->readdir hook, see (3). Since readdir hooks doesn't use BKL anymore, switch to generic_file_llseek, since it also takes directory's i_mutex. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Id which proc gets from IDR for inode number and id which proc removes from IDR do not match. E.g. 0x11a transforms into 0x8000011a. Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove() masks out that high bit before doing anything. All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number(). I still don't understand how it's supposed to work, because "| ~MASK" is not an inversion for "& MAX" operation. So, use just one nice, working addition. Make start offset unsigned int, while I'm at it. It's longness is not used anywhere. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The original OOPS is described in the commit 2d3a4e3666325a9709cc8ea2e88151394e8f20fc: Typical PDE creation code looks like: pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL); if (pde) pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops; Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to final value. This is a problem because right after creation a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below). The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like: pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops); if (!pde) return -ENOMEM; Fix most networking users for a start. In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go. In addition to this, proc_create_data is introduced to fix reading from proc without PDE->data. The race is basically the same as above. create_proc_entries is replaced in the entire kernel code as new method is also simply better. This patch: The problem is the same as for de->proc_fops. Right now PDE becomes visible without data set. So, the entry could be looked up without data. This, in most cases, will simply OOPS. proc_create_data call is created to address this issue. proc_create now becomes a wrapper around it. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Cc: "Eric W.

So, patch allows the following to succeed: create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, pde_baz); remove_proc_entry("baz/foo/bar", &proc_root); Also makes the following to behave identically: create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, NULL); create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, &proc_root); Discrepancy noticed by Den Lunev (IIRC).

* [NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3)Pavel Emelyanov2008-03-071-9/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current /proc/net is done with so called "shadows", but current implementation is broken and has little chances to get fixed. The problem is that dentries subtree of /proc/net directory has fancy revalidation rules to make processes living in different net namespaces see different entries in /proc/net subtree, but currently, tasks see in the /proc/net subdir the contents of any other namespace, depending on who opened the file first. The proposed fix is to turn /proc/net into a symlink, which points to /proc/self/net, which in turn shows what previously was in /proc/net - the network-related info, from the net namespace the appropriate task lives in. # ls -l /proc/net lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Mar 5 15:17 /proc/net -> self/net In other words - this behaves like /proc/mounts, but unlike "mounts", "net" is not a file, but a directory. Changes from v2: * Fixed discrepancy of /proc/net nlink count and selinux labeling screwup pointed out by Stephen. To get the correct nlink count the ->getattr callback for /proc/net is overridden to read one from the net->proc_net entry.
