ovl: fix unneeded call to ovl_change_flags()

2020-07-16T05:24:47Z

The check if user has changed the overlay file was wrong, causing unneeded call to ovl_change_flags() including taking f_lock on every file access.

ovl: only pass ->ki_flags to ovl_iocb_to_rwf()

Next patch will want to pass a modified set of flags, so... Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

ovl: check permission to open real file

2020-06-03T07:45:22Z

Call inode_permission() on real inode before opening regular file on one of the underlying layers. In some cases ovl_permission() already checks access to an underlying file, but it misses the metacopy case, and possibly other ones as well. Removing the redundant permission check from ovl_permission() should be considered later. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

ovl: call secutiry hook in ovl_real_ioctl()

2020-06-03T07:45:18Z

Verify LSM permissions for underlying file, since vfs_ioctl() doesn't do it. [Stephen Rothwell] export security_file_ioctl Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

ovl: fix lockdep warning for async write

2020-03-13T14:53:06Z

Lockdep reports "WARNING: lock held when returning to user space!" due to async write holding freeze lock over the write. Apparently aio.c already deals with this by lying to lockdep about the state of the lock. Do the same here. No need to check for S_IFREG() here since these file ops are regular-only.

ovl: fix lseek overflow on 32bit

2020-02-03T10:41:53Z

ovl_lseek() is using ssize_t to return the value from vfs_llseek(). On a 32-bit kernel ssize_t is a 32-bit signed int, which overflows above 2 GB. Assign the return value of vfs_llseek() to loff_t to fix this. Reported-by: Boris Gjenero Fixes: 9e46b840c705 ("ovl: support stacked SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA") Cc: # v4.19 Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

ovl: add splice file read write helper

2020-01-24T15:28:15Z

Now overlayfs falls back to use default file splice read and write, which is not compatiple with overlayfs, returning EFAULT. xfstests generic/591 can reproduce part of this. Tested this patch with xfstests auto group tests. Signed-off-by: Murphy Zhou Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

ovl: implement async IO routines

2020-01-24T08:46:46Z

A performance regression was observed since linux v4.19 with aio test using fio with iodepth 128 on overlayfs. The queue depth of the device was always 1 which is unexpected. After investigation, it was found that commit 16914e6fc7e1 ("ovl: add ovl_read_iter()") and commit 2a92e07edc5e ("ovl: add ovl_write_iter()") resulted in vfs_iter_{read,write} being called on underlying filesystem, which always results in syncronous IO. Implement async IO for stacked reading and writing. This resolves the performance regresion. This is implemented by allocating a new kiocb for submitting the AIO request on the underlying filesystem. When the request is completed, the new kiocb is freed and the completion callback is called on the original iocb. Signed-off-by: Jiufei Xue Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

ovl: use ovl_inode_lock in ovl_llseek()

2020-01-22T19:11:41Z

In ovl_llseek() we use the overlay inode rwsem to protect against concurrent modifications to real file f_pos, because we copy the overlay file f_pos to/from the real file f_pos. This caused a lockdep warning of locking order violation when the ovl_llseek() operation was called on a lower nested overlay layer while the upper layer fs sb_writers is held (with patch improving copy-up efficiency for big sparse file). Use the internal ovl_inode_lock() instead of the overlay inode rwsem in those cases. It is meant to be used for protecting against concurrent changes to overlay inode internal state changes. The locking order rules are documented to explain this case. Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

Merge tag 'spdx-5.2-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/spdx

2019-06-21T16:58:42Z

Pull still more SPDX updates from Greg KH: "Another round of SPDX updates for 5.2-rc6 Here is what I am guessing is going to be the last "big" SPDX update for 5.2. It contains all of the remaining GPLv2 and GPLv2+ updates that were "easy" to determine by pattern matching. The ones after this are going to be a bit more difficult and the people on the spdx list will be discussing them on a case-by-case basis now. Another 5000+ files are fixed up, so our overall totals are: Files checked: 64545 Files with SPDX: 45529 Compared to the 5.1 kernel which was: Files checked: 63848 Files with SPDX: 22576 This is a huge improvement. Also, we deleted another 20000 lines of boilerplate license crud, always nice to see in a diffstat" * tag 'spdx-5.2-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/spdx: (65 commits) treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 507 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 506 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 505 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 504 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 503 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 502 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 501 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 500 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 499 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 498 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 497 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 496 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 495 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 491 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 490 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 489 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 488 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 487 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 486 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 485 ...
