commit e21a2f17566cbd64926fb8f16323972f7a064444 upstream.

The following memory leak was reported after unbinding /dev/cachefiles:

==================================================================

commit bb49e9e730c2906a958eee273a7819f401543d6c upstream.

Multiple places open-code the same check to determine whether a given
mount is idmapped. Introduce a simple helper function that can be used
instead. This allows us to get rid of the fragile open-coding. We will
later change the check that is used to determine whether a given mount
is idmapped. Introducing a helper allows us to do this in a single
place instead of doing it for multiple places.

<title>cachefiles: do not yet allow on idmapped mounts</title>

Based on discussions (e.g. in [1]) my understanding of cachefiles and
the cachefiles userspace daemon is that it creates a cache on a local
filesystem (e.g. ext4, xfs etc.) for a network filesystem. The way this
is done is by writing "bind" to /dev/cachefiles and pointing it to the
directory to use as the cache.

Currently this directory can technically also be an idmapped mount but
cachefiles aren't yet fully aware of such mounts and thus don't take the
idmapping into account when creating cache entries. This could leave
users confused as the ownership of the files wouldn't match to what they
expressed in the idmapping. Block cache files on idmapped mounts until
the fscache rework is done and we have ported it to support idmapped
mounts.

<title>fscache: Fix reference overput in fscache_attach_object() error handling</title>

<id>f29507ce66701084c39aeb1b0ae71690cbff3554</id>
<content type='text'>
When a cookie is allocated that causes fscache_object structs to be
allocated, those objects are initialised with the cookie pointer, but
aren't blessed with a ref on that cookie unless the attachment is
successfully completed in fscache_attach_object().

If attachment fails because the parent object was dying or there was a
collision, fscache_attach_object() returns without incrementing the cookie
counter - but upon failure of this function, the object is released which
then puts the cookie, whether or not a ref was taken on the cookie.

Fix this by taking a ref on the cookie when it is assigned in
fscache_object_init(), even when we're creating a root object.


Analysis from Kiran Kumar:

This bug has been seen in 4.4.0-124-generic #148-Ubuntu kernel

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1776277

fscache cookie ref count updated incorrectly during fscache object
allocation resulting in following Oops.

kernel BUG at /build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/internal.h:321!
kernel BUG at /build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/cookie.c:639!

[Cause]
Two threads are trying to do operate on a cookie and two objects.

(1) One thread tries to unmount the filesystem and in process goes over a
    huge list of objects marking them dead and deleting the objects.
    cookie-&gt;usage is also decremented in following path:

      nfs_fscache_release_super_cookie
       -&gt; __fscache_relinquish_cookie
        -&gt;__fscache_cookie_put
        -&gt;BUG_ON(atomic_read(&amp;cookie-&gt;usage) &lt;= 0);

(2) A second thread tries to lookup an object for reading data in following
    path:

    fscache_alloc_object
    1) cachefiles_alloc_object
        -&gt; fscache_object_init
           -&gt; assign cookie, but usage not bumped.
    2) fscache_attach_object -&gt; fails in cant_attach_object because the
         cookie's backing object or cookie's-&gt;parent object are going away
    3) fscache_put_object
        -&gt; cachefiles_put_object
          -&gt;fscache_object_destroy
            -&gt;fscache_cookie_put
               -&gt;BUG_ON(atomic_read(&amp;cookie-&gt;usage) &lt;= 0);

[NOTE from dhowells] It's unclear as to the circumstances in which (2) can
take place, given that thread (1) is in nfs_kill_super(), however a
conflicting NFS mount with slightly different parameters that creates a
different superblock would do it.  A backtrace from Kiran seems to show
that this is a possibility:

    kernel BUG at/build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/cookie.c:639!
    ...
    RIP: __fscache_cookie_put+0x3a/0x40 [fscache]
    Call Trace:
     __fscache_relinquish_cookie+0x87/0x120 [fscache]
     nfs_fscache_release_super_cookie+0x2d/0xb0 [nfs]
     nfs_kill_super+0x29/0x40 [nfs]

     syscall_return_slowpath+0x4e/0x60
     int_ret_from_sys_call+0x25/0x9f

[Fix] Bump up the cookie usage in fscache_object_init, when it is first
being assigned a cookie atomically such that the cookie is added and bumped
up if its refcount is not zero.  Remove the assignment in
fscache_attach_object().

[Testcase]
I have run ~100 hours of NFS stress tests and not seen this bug recur.

[Regression Potential]
 - Limited to fscache/cachefiles.

counter - but upon failure of this function, the object is released which
then puts the cookie, whether or not a ref was taken on the cookie.

Fix this by taking a ref on the cookie when it is assigned in
fscache_object_init(), even when we're creating a root object.


Analysis from Kiran Kumar:

This bug has been seen in 4.4.0-124-generic #148-Ubuntu kernel

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1776277

fscache cookie ref count updated incorrectly during fscache object
allocation resulting in following Oops.

kernel BUG at /build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/internal.h:321!
kernel BUG at /build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/cookie.c:639!

[Cause]
Two threads are trying to do operate on a cookie and two objects.

(1) One thread tries to unmount the filesystem and in process goes over a
    huge list of objects marking them dead and deleting the objects.
    cookie-&gt;usage is also decremented in following path:

      nfs_fscache_release_super_cookie
       -&gt; __fscache_relinquish_cookie
        -&gt;__fscache_cookie_put
        -&gt;BUG_ON(atomic_read(&amp;cookie-&gt;usage) &lt;= 0);

(2) A second thread tries to lookup an object for reading data in following
    path:

    fscache_alloc_object
    1) cachefiles_alloc_object
        -&gt; fscache_object_init
           -&gt; assign cookie, but usage not bumped.
    2) fscache_attach_object -&gt; fails in cant_attach_object because the
         cookie's backing object or cookie's-&gt;parent object are going away
    3) fscache_put_object
        -&gt; cachefiles_put_object
          -&gt;fscache_object_destroy
            -&gt;fscache_cookie_put
               -&gt;BUG_ON(atomic_read(&amp;cookie-&gt;usage) &lt;= 0);

[NOTE from dhowells] It's unclear as to the circumstances in which (2) can
take place, given that thread (1) is in nfs_kill_super(), however a
conflicting NFS mount with slightly different parameters that creates a
different superblock would do it.  A backtrace from Kiran seems to show
that this is a possibility:

    kernel BUG at/build/linux-Y09MKI/linux-4.4.0/fs/fscache/cookie.c:639!
    ...
    RIP: __fscache_cookie_put+0x3a/0x40 [fscache]
    Call Trace:
     __fscache_relinquish_cookie+0x87/0x120 [fscache]
     nfs_fscache_release_super_cookie+0x2d/0xb0 [nfs]
     nfs_kill_super+0x29/0x40 [nfs]

     syscall_return_slowpath+0x4e/0x60
     int_ret_from_sys_call+0x25/0x9f

[Fix] Bump up the cookie usage in fscache_object_init, when it is first
being assigned a cookie atomically such that the cookie is added and bumped
up if its refcount is not zero.  Remove the assignment in
fscache_attach_object().

[Testcase]
I have run ~100 hours of NFS stress tests and not seen this bug recur.

[Regression Potential]
 - Limited to fscache/cachefiles.

<title>VFS: Convert sb-&gt;s_flags &amp; MS_RDONLY to sb_rdonly(sb)</title>

Firstly by applying the following with coccinelle's spatch:

	@@ expression SB; @@
	-SB-&gt;s_flags &amp; MS_RDONLY
	+sb_rdonly(SB)

to effect the conversion to sb_rdonly(sb), then by applying:

	@@ expression A, SB; @@
	(
	-(!sb_rdonly(SB)) &amp;&amp; A
	+!sb_rdonly(SB) &amp;&amp; A
	|
	-A != (sb_rdonly(SB))
	+A != sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-A == (sb_rdonly(SB))
	+A == sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-!(sb_rdonly(SB))
	+!sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-A &amp;&amp; (sb_rdonly(SB))
	+A &amp;&amp; sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-A || (sb_rdonly(SB))
	+A || sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-(sb_rdonly(SB)) != A
	+sb_rdonly(SB) != A
	|
	-(sb_rdonly(SB)) == A
	+sb_rdonly(SB) == A
	|
	-(sb_rdonly(SB)) &amp;&amp; A
	+sb_rdonly(SB) &amp;&amp; A
	|
	-(sb_rdonly(SB)) || A
	+sb_rdonly(SB) || A
	)

	@@ expression A, B, SB; @@
	(
	-(sb_rdonly(SB)) ? 1 : 0
	+sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-(sb_rdonly(SB)) ? A : B
	+sb_rdonly(SB) ? A : B
	)

to remove left over excess bracketage and finally by applying:

	@@ expression A, SB; @@
	(
	-(A &amp; MS_RDONLY) != sb_rdonly(SB)
	+(bool)(A &amp; MS_RDONLY) != sb_rdonly(SB)
	|
	-(A &amp; MS_RDONLY) == sb_rdonly(SB)
	+(bool)(A &amp; MS_RDONLY) == sb_rdonly(SB)
	)

to make comparisons against the result of sb_rdonly() (which is a bool)
work correctly.

Right now, various places in the kernel check for the existence of
getxattr, setxattr, and removexattr inode operations and directly call
those operations.  Switch to helper functions and test for the IOP_XATTR
flag instead.
