fsnotify: Pass group argument to free_event

For group-wide mempool backed events, like FS_ERROR, the free_event
callback will need to reference the group's mempool to free the memory.
Wire that argument into the current callers.

In order to improve event merge performance, hash events in a 128 size
hash table by the event merge key.

The fanotify_event size grows by two pointers, but we just reduced its

by one pointer.

The destruction of fanotify event includes a path_put() call which may
end up calling into a filesystem to delete an inode if we happen to be

That in turn may violate lock ordering for some filesystems since
notification_mutex is also acquired e. g. during write when generating
fanotify event.

Also this is the only thing that forces notification_mutex to be a

fanotify: fix list corruption in fanotify_get_response()

fanotify_get_response() calls fsnotify_remove_event() when it finds that
group is being released from fanotify_release() (bypass_perm is set).

However the event it removes need not be only in the group's notification
queue but it can have already moved to access_list (userspace read the
event before closing the fanotify instance fd) which is protected by a
different lock. Thus when fsnotify_remove_event() races with
fanotify_release() operating on access_list, the list can get corrupted.

Fix the problem by moving all the logic removing permission events from
the lists to one place - fanotify_release().

These events are freed from fanotify_handle_event() but they are not

Fix the problem by removing permission events from notification queue
before freeing them if we skip processing access response. Also expand

fsnotify: do not share events between notification groups

Currently fsnotify framework creates one event structure for each
notification event and links this event into all interested notification
groups. This is done so that we save memory when several notification
groups are interested in the event. However the need for event
structure shared between inotify & fanotify bloats the event structure
so the result is often higher memory consumption.

Another problem is that fsnotify framework keeps path references with
outstanding events so that fanotify can return open file descriptors
with its events. This has the undesirable effect that filesystem cannot
be unmounted while there are outstanding events - a regression for
inotify compared to a situation before it was converted to fsnotify
framework. For fanotify this problem is hard to avoid and users of
fanotify should kind of expect this behavior when they ask for file
descriptors from notified files.

This patch changes fsnotify and its users to create separate event
structure for each group. This allows for much simpler code (~400 lines
removed by this patch) and also smaller event structures. For example
on 64-bit system original struct fsnotify_event consumes 120 bytes, plus
additional space for file name, additional 24 bytes for second and each
subsequent group linking the event, and additional 32 bytes for each
inotify group for private data. After the conversion inotify event
consumes 48 bytes plus space for file name which is considerably less
memory unless file names are long and there are several groups
interested in the events (both of which are uncommon). Fanotify event
fits in 56 bytes after the conversion (fanotify doesn't care about file
names so its events don't have to have it allocated). A win unless
there are four or more fanotify groups interested in the event.

The conversion also solves the problem with unmount when only inotify is
used as we don't have to grab path references for inotify events.

vfs/fsnotify: fsnotify_close can delay the final work in fput

fanotify almost works like so:

user context calls fsnotify_* function with a struct file.
fsnotify takes a reference on the struct path
user context goes about it's buissiness

at some later point in time the fsnotify listener gets the struct path
fanotify listener calls dentry_open() to create a file which userspace can deal with
listener drops the reference on the struct path
at some later point the listener calls close() on it's new file

With the switch from struct path to struct file this presents a problem for
fput() and fsnotify_close(). fsnotify_close() is called when the filp has
already reached 0 and __fput() wants to do it's cleanup.

The solution presented here is a bit odd. If an event is created from a
struct file we take a reference on the file. We check however if the f_count
was already 0 and if so we take an EXTRA reference EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ZERO.
In __fput() (where we know the f_count hit 0 once) we check if the f_count is
non-zero and if so we drop that 'extra' ref and return without destroying the
file.

fsnotify: fix inotify tail drop check with path entries

fsnotify drops new events when they are the same as the tail event on the
queue to be sent to userspace. The problem is that if the event comes with
a path we forget to break out of the switch statement and fall into the
code path which matches on events that do not have any type of file backed
information (things like IN_UNMOUNT and IN_Q_OVERFLOW). The problem is
that this code thinks all such events should be dropped. Fix is to add a
break.

inotify: check filename before dropping repeat events

inotify drops events if the last event on the queue is the same as the
current event. But it does 2 things wrong. First it is comparing old->inode
with new->inode. But after an event if put on the queue the ->inode is no
longer allowed to be used. It's possible between the last event and this new
event the inode could be reused and we would falsely match the inode's memory
address between two differing events.

The second problem is that when a file is removed fsnotify is passed the
negative dentry for the removed object rather than the postive dentry from
immediately before the removal. This mean the (broken) inotify tail drop code
was matching the NULL ->inode of differing events.

The fix is to check the file name which is stored with events when doing the
tail drop instead of wrongly checking the address of the stored ->inode.

fsnotify: allow groups to add private data to events

inotify needs per group information attached to events. This patch allows
groups to attach private information and implements a callback so that
information can be freed when an event is being destroyed.

fsnotify: add correlations between events

As part of the standard inotify events it includes a correlation cookie
between two dentry move operations. This patch includes the same behaviour
in fsnotify events. It is needed so that inotify userspace can be
implemented on top of fsnotify.

fsnotify: include pathnames with entries when possible

When inotify wants to send events to a directory about a child it includes
the name of the original file. This patch collects that filename and makes
it available for notification.

fsnotify: generic notification queue and waitq

inotify needs to do asyc notification in which event information is stored
on a queue until the listener is ready to receive it. This patch
implements a generic notification queue for inotify (and later fanotify) to
store events to be sent at a later time.

fsnotify: unified filesystem notification backend

fsnotify is a backend for filesystem notification. fsnotify does
not provide any userspace interface but does provide the basis
needed for other notification schemes such as dnotify. fsnotify
can be extended to be the backend for inotify or the upcoming
fanotify. fsnotify provides a mechanism for "groups" to register for
some set of filesystem events and to then deliver those events to
those groups for processing.

fsnotify has a number of benefits, the first being actually shrinking the size
of an inode. Before fsnotify to support both dnotify and inotify an inode had

unsigned long i_dnotify_mask; /* Directory notify events */
struct dnotify_struct *i_dnotify; /* for directory notifications */
struct list_head inotify_watches; /* watches on this inode */
struct mutex inotify_mutex; /* protects the watches list

But with fsnotify this same functionallity (and more) is done with just

__u32 i_fsnotify_mask; /* all events for this inode */
struct hlist_head i_fsnotify_mark_entries; /* marks on this inode */

That's right, inotify, dnotify, and fanotify all in 64 bits. We used that
much space just in inotify_watches alone, before this patch set.

fsnotify object lifetime and locking is MUCH better than what we have today.
inotify locking is incredibly complex. See 8f7b0ba1c8539 as an example of
what's been busted since inception. inotify needs to know internal semantics
of superblock destruction and unmounting to function. The inode pinning and
vfs contortions are horrible.

no fsnotify implementers do allocation under locks. This means things like
f04b30de3 which (due to an overabundance of caution) changes GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_NOFS can be reverted. There are no longer any allocation rules when using
or implementing your own fsnotify listener.

fsnotify paves the way for fanotify. In brief fanotify is a notification
mechanism that delivers the lisener both an 'event' and an open file descriptor
to the object in question. This means that fanotify is pathname agnostic.
Some on lkml may not care for the original companies or users that pushed for
TALPA, but fanotify was designed with flexibility and input for other users in
mind. The readahead group expressed interest in fanotify as it could be used
to profile disk access on boot without breaking the audit system. The desktop
search groups have also expressed interest in fanotify as it solves a number
of the race conditions and problems present with managing inotify when more
than a limited number of specific files are of interest. fanotify can provide
for a userspace access control system which makes it a clean interface for AV
vendors to hook without trying to do binary patching on the syscall table,
LSM, and everywhere else they do their things today. With this patch series
fanotify can be implemented in less than 1200 lines of easy to review code.
Almost all of which is the socket based user interface.

This patch series builds fsnotify to the point that it can implement
dnotify and inotify_user. Patches exist and will be sent soon after
acceptance to finish the in kernel inotify conversion (audit) and implement
fanotify.
