cachefiles: fix memory leak in cachefiles_add_cache()

2024-03-06T14:38:50+00:00

commit e21a2f17566cbd64926fb8f16323972f7a064444 upstream.

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

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

Put the reference count of cache_cred in cachefiles_daemon_unbind() to
fix the problem. And also put cache_cred in cachefiles_add_cache() error
branch to avoid memory leaks.

fs: add is_idmapped_mnt() helper

2022-07-02T14:41:14+00:00

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.

cachefiles: Change %p in format strings to something else

2021-08-27T12:34:02+00:00

Change plain %p in format strings in cachefiles code to something more
useful, since %p is now hashed before printing and thus no longer matches
the contents of an oops register dump.

fscache, cachefiles: Add alternate API to use kiocb for read/write to cache

2021-04-23T09:14:32+00:00

Add an alternate API by which the cache can be accessed through a kiocb,
doing async DIO, rather than using the current API that tells the cache
where all the pages are.

The new API is intended to be used in conjunction with the netfs helper
library. A filesystem must pick one or the other and not mix them.

Filesystems wanting to use the new API must #define FSCACHE_USE_NEW_IO_API
before #including the header. This prevents them from continuing to use
the old API at the same time as there are incompatibilities in how the
PG_fscache page bit is used.

Changes:
v6:
- Provide a routine to shape a write so that the start and length can be
aligned for DIO[3].

v4:
- Use the vfs_iocb_iter_read/write() helpers[1]
- Move initial definition of fscache_begin_read_operation() here.
- Remove a commented-out line[2]
- Combine ki->term_func calls in cachefiles_read_complete()[2].
- Remove explicit NULL initialiser[2].
- Remove extern on func decl[2].
- Put in param names on func decl[2].
- Remove redundant else[2].
- Fill out the kdoc comment for fscache_begin_read_operation().
- Rename fs/fscache/page2.c to io.c to match later patches.

Pull cachefiles and afs fixes from David Howells:
 "Fixes from Matthew Wilcox for page waiting-related issues in
  cachefiles and afs as extracted from his folio series[1]:

   - In cachefiles, remove the use of the wait_bit_key struct to access
     something that's actually in wait_page_key format. The proper
     struct is now available in the header, so that should be used
     instead.

   - Add a proper wait function for waiting killably on the page
     writeback flag. This includes a recent bugfix[2] that's not in the
     afs code.

   - In afs, use the function added in (2) rather than using
     wait_on_page_bit_killable() which doesn't provide the
     aforementioned bugfix"

cachefiles: do not yet allow on idmapped mounts

2021-03-24T17:20:22+00:00

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.

fs/cachefiles: Remove wait_bit_key layout dependency

2021-03-23T20:54:29+00:00

Cachefiles was relying on wait_page_key and wait_bit_key being the
same layout, which is fragile.  Now that wait_page_key is exposed in
the pagemap.h header, we can remove that fragility

A comment on the need to maintain structure layout equivalence was added by
Linus[1] and that is no longer applicable.
