5455f92b54 ovl: Put upperdentry if ovl_check_origin() fails
If ovl_check_origin() fails, we should put upperdentry. We have a reference
on it by now. So goto out_put_upper instead of out.

a0c5ad307a ovl: relax same fs constraint for constant st_ino
For the case of all layers not on the same fs, return the copy up origin
inode st_dev/st_ino for non-dir from stat(2).

This guaranties constant st_dev/st_ino for non-dir across copy up.
Like the same fs case, st_ino of non-dir is also persistent.

If the st_dev/st_ino for copied up object would have been the same as
that of the real underlying lower file, running diff on underlying lower
file and overlay copied up file would result in diff reporting that the
two files are equal when in fact, they may have different content.

Therefore, unlike the same fs case, st_dev is not persistent because it
uses the unique anonymous bdev allocated for the lower layer.

Instead of keeping the fs instance lower layers in an array of struct

pointer to struct vfsmount.

Instead of keeping the dentry lower layers in an array of struct path,
keep them in an array of new struct ovl_path, that has a pointer to
struct dentry and to struct ovl_layer.

Add a small helper to find the fs layer id that correspopnds to a lower

ee023c30d7 ovl: move include of ovl_entry.h into overlayfs.h
Most overlayfs c files already explicitly include ovl_entry.h
to use overlay entry struct definitions and upcoming changes
are going to require even more c files to include this header.

All overlayfs c files include overlayfs.h and overlayfs.h itself
refers to some structs defined in ovl_entry.h, so it seems more
logic to include ovl_entry.h from overlayfs.h than from c files.

07f6fff148 ovl: fix rmdir problem on non-merge dir with origin xattr
An "origin && non-merge" upper dir may have leftover whiteouts that
were created in past mount. overlayfs does no clear this dir when we
delete it, which may lead to rmdir fail or temp file left in workdir.

Simple reproducer:
  mkdir lower upper work merge
  mkdir -p lower/dir
  touch lower/dir/a
  mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,\
    workdir=work merge
  rm merge/dir/a
  umount merge
  rm -rf lower/*
  touch lower/dir  (*)
  mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,\
    workdir=work merge
  rm -rf merge/dir

Syslog dump:
  overlayfs: cleanup of 'work/#7' failed (-39)

(*): if we do not create the regular file, the result is different:
  rm: cannot remove "dir/": Directory not empty

This patch adds a check for the case of non-merge dir that may contain
whiteouts, and calls ovl_check_empty_dir() to check and clear whiteouts
from upper dir when an empty dir is being deleted.

If a non-merge dir in an overlay mount has an overlay.origin xattr, it

then the lower dir was removed under it.

fa0096e3ba ovl: do not cleanup unsupported index entries
With index=on, ovl_indexdir_cleanup() tries to cleanup invalid index
entries (e.g. bad index name). This behavior could result in cleaning of
entries created by newer kernels and is therefore undesirable.
Instead, abort mount if such entries are encountered. We still cleanup
'stale' entries and 'orphan' entries, both those cases can be a result
of offline changes to lower and upper dirs.

When encoutering an index entry of type directory or whiteout, kernel
was supposed to fallback to read-only mount, but the fill_super()
operation returns EROFS in this case instead of returning success with
read-only mount flag, so mount fails when encoutering directory or
whiteout index entries. Bless this behavior by returning -EINVAL on
directory and whiteout index entries as we do for all unsupported index
entries.

6eaf011144 ovl: fix EIO from lookup of non-indexed upper
Commit fbaf94ee3c ("ovl: don't set origin on broken lower hardlink")
attempt to avoid the condition of non-indexed upper inode with lower
hardlink as origin. If this condition is found, lookup returns EIO.

The protection of commit mentioned above does not cover the case of lower
that is not a hardlink when it is copied up (with either index=off/on)
and then lower is hardlinked while overlay is offline.

Changes to lower layer while overlayfs is offline should not result in
unexpected behavior, so a permanent EIO error after creating a link in
lower layer should not be considered as correct behavior.

This fix replaces EIO error with success in cases where upper has origin
but no index is found, or index is found that does not match upper
inode. In those cases, lookup will not fail and the returned overlay inode
will be hashed by upper inode instead of by lower origin inode.

85fdee1eef ovl: fix regression caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection
Enforcing exclusive ownership on upper/work dirs caused a docker
regression: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/34672.

Euan spotted the regression and pointed to the offending commit.
Vivek has brought the regression to my attention and provided this
reproducer:

Terminal 1:

  mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none
        merged/

Terminal 2:

  unshare -m

Terminal 1:

  umount merged
  mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none
        merged/
  mount: /root/overlay-testing/merged: none already mounted or mount point
         busy

To fix the regression, I replaced the error with an alarming warning.
With index feature enabled, mount does fail, but logs a suggestion to
override exclusive dir protection by disabling index.
Note that index=off mount does take the inuse locks, so a concurrent
index=off will issue the warning and a concurrent index=on mount will fail.

Documentation was updated to reflect this change.

0ee931c4e3 mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8f ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE.  It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation.  As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag.  How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.

The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory.  So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.

I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification.  I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring.  This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.

I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse.  Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL.  Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.

I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.

This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic.  It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users.  The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers.  So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

c353f88f3d Merge branch 'overlayfs-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs
Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:
 "This fixes d_ino correctness in readdir, which brings overlayfs on par
  with normal filesystems regarding inode number semantics, as long as
  all layers are on the same filesystem.

  There are also some bug fixes, one in particular (random ioctl's
  shouldn't be able to modify lower layers) that touches some vfs code,
  but of course no-op for non-overlay fs"

* 'overlayfs-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs:
  ovl: fix false positive ESTALE on lookup
  ovl: don't allow writing ioctl on lower layer
  ovl: fix relatime for directories
  vfs: add flags to d_real()
  ovl: cleanup d_real for negative

939ae4efd5 ovl: fix false positive ESTALE on lookup
Commit b9ac5c274b ("ovl: hash overlay non-dir inodes by copy up origin")
verifies that the origin lower inode stored in the overlayfs inode matched
the inode of a copy up origin dentry found by lookup.

There is a false positive result in that check when lower fs does not
support file handles and copy up origin cannot be followed by file handle
at lookup time.

The false negative happens when finding an overlay inode in cache on a
copied up overlay dentry lookup. The overlay inode still 'remembers' the
copy up origin inode, but the copy up origin dentry is not available for
verification.

Relax the check in case copy up origin dentry is not available.

Fixes: b9ac5c274b ("ovl: hash overlay non-dir inodes by copy up...")

Need to treat non-regular overlayfs files the same as regular files when
checking for an atime update.

Add a d_real() flag to make it return the upper dentry for all file types.

191a3980c6 ovl: cleanup d_real for negative
d_real() is never called with a negative dentry.  So remove the
d_is_negative() check (which would never trigger anyway, since d_is_reg()
returns false for a negative dentry).

ff7a5fb0f1 overlayfs, locking: Remove smp_mb__before_spinlock() usage
While we could replace the smp_mb__before_spinlock() with the new
smp_mb__after_spinlock(), the normal pattern is to use
smp_store_release() to publish an object that is used for
lockless_dereference() -- and mirrors the regular rcu_assign_pointer()
/ rcu_dereference() patterns.

4edb83bb10 ovl: constant d_ino for non-merge dirs
Impure directories are ones which contain objects with origins (i.e. those
that have been copied up).  These are relevant to readdir operation only
because of the d_ino field, no other transformation is necessary.  Also a
directory can become impure between two getdents(2) calls.

This patch creates a cache for impure directories.  Unlike the cache for
merged directories, this one only contains entries with origin and is not
refcounted but has a its lifetime tied to that of the dentry.

Similarly to the merged cache, the impure cache is invalidated based on a
version number.  This version number is incremented when an entry with
origin is added or removed from the directory.

If the cache is empty, then the impure xattr is removed from the directory.

This patch also fixes up handling of d_ino for the ".." entry if the parent
directory is merged.

b5efccbe0a ovl: constant d_ino across copy up
When all layers are on the same fs, and iterating a directory which may
contain copy up entries, call vfs_getattr() on the overlay entries to make
sure that d_ino will be consistent with st_ino from stat(2).

There is an overhead of lookup per upper entry in readdir.

The overhead is minimal if the iterated entries are already in dcache.  It
is also quite useful for the common case of 'ls -l' that readdir() pre
populates the dcache with the listed entries, making the following stat()
calls faster.
