2015-06-01fs: sysfs: don't pass count == 0 to bin file readersVladimir Zapolskiy1-1/+1
If count == 0 bytes are requested by a reader, sysfs_kf_bin_read() deliberately returns 0 without passing a potentially harmful value to some externally defined underlying battr->read() function. However in case of (pos == size && count) the next clause always sets count to 0 and this value is handed over to battr->read(). The change intends to make obsolete (and remove later) a redundant sanity check in battr->read(), if it is present, or add more protection to struct bin_attribute users, who does not care about input arguments.

2015-02-13kernfs: remove KERNFS_STATIC_NAMETejun Heo1-1/+1
When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid making a separate copy of its name. It's currently only used for sysfs attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged. There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the rodata section. Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(), there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around. Remove it.

2014-11-07sysfs/kernfs: make read requests on pre-alloc files use the buffer.NeilBrown1-4/+28
To match the previous patch which used the pre-alloc buffer for writes, this patch causes reads to use the same buffer. This is not strictly necessary as the current seq_read() will allocate on first read, so user-space can trigger the required pre-alloc. But consistency is valuable. The read function is somewhat simpler than seq_read() and, for example, does not support reading from an offset into the file: reads must be at the start of the file. As seq_read() does not use the prealloc buffer, ->seq_show is incompatible with ->prealloc and caused an EINVAL return from open(). sysfs code which calls into kernfs always chooses the correct function. As the buffer is shared with writes and other reads, the mutex is extended to cover the copy_to_user.

2014-11-07sysfs/kernfs: allow attributes to request write buffer be pre-allocated.NeilBrown1-7/+24
md/raid allows metadata management to be performed in user-space. A various times, particularly on device failure, the metadata needs to be updated before further writes can be permitted. This means that the user-space program which updates metadata much not block on writeout, and so must not allocate memory. mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE) and pre-allocation can avoid all memory allocation issues for user-memory, but that does not help kernel memory. Several kernel objects can be pre-allocated. e.g. files opened before any writes to the array are permitted. However some kernel allocation happens in places that cannot be pre-allocated. In particular, writes to sysfs files (to tell md that it can now allow writes to the array) allocate a buffer using GFP_KERNEL. This patch allows attributes to be marked as "PREALLOC". In that case the maximal buffer is allocated when the file is opened, and then used on each write instead of allocating a new buffer. As the same buffer is now shared for all writes on the same file description, the mutex is extended to cover full use of the buffer including the copy_from_user(). The new __ATTR_PREALLOC() 'or's a new flag in to the 'mode', which is inspected by sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() to determine if the file should be marked as requiring prealloc. Despite the comment, we *do* use ->seq_show together with ->prealloc in this patch. The next patch fixes that.

2014-11-07fs: sysfs: return EGBIG on write if offset is larger than file sizeVladimir Zapolskiy1-1/+1
According to the user expectations common utilities like dd or sh redirection operator > should work correctly over binary files from sysfs. At the moment doing excessive write can not be completed: write(1, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 4 write(1, "\0\0\0\0", 4) = 0 write(1, "\0\0\0\0", 4) = 0 write(1, "\0\0\0\0", 4) = 0 ...

2014-05-20sysfs: make sure read buffer is zeroedTejun Heo1-1/+2
13c589d5b0ac ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files") switched sysfs from custom read implementation to seq_file to enable later transition to kernfs. After the change, the buffer passed to ->show() is acquired through seq_get_buf(); unfortunately, this introduces a subtle behavior change. Before the commit, the buffer passed to ->show() was always zero as it was allocated using get_zeroed_page(). Because seq_file doesn't clear buffers on allocation and neither does seq_get_buf(), after the commit, depending on the behavior of ->show(), we may end up exposing uninitialized data to userland thus possibly altering userland visible behavior and leaking information. Fix it by explicitly clearing the buffer.

2014-02-07kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappersTejun Heo1-0/+23
Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself is sitting on top of. This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous. While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation reliable. The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous. All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't confuse the deactivation path. This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal deletion path will simply be ignored. This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations - even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 > delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is completed by one of the instances. Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection(). kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be used to cater to more complex cases. v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it. Reported by kbuild test bot. v3: kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() separated out from kernfs_remove_self() and exposed as public API.

2013-12-17kernfs: mark static names with KERNFS_STATIC_NAMETejun Heo1-2/+2
Because sysfs used struct attribute which are supposed to stay constant, sysfs didn't copy names when creating regular files. The specified string for name was supposed to stay constant. Such distinction isn't inherent for kernfs. kernfs_create_file[_ns]() should be able to take the same @name as kernfs_create_dir[_ns]() As there can be huge number of sysfs attributes, we still want to be able to use static names for sysfs attributes. This patch renames kernfs_create_file_ns_key() to __kernfs_create_file() and adds @name_is_static parameter so that the caller can explicitly indicate that @name can be used without copying. kernfs is updated to use KERNFS_STATIC_NAME to distinguish static and copied names.

2013-12-10sysfs: bail early from kernfs_file_mmap() to avoid spurious lockdep warningTejun Heo1-4/+8
This is v3.14 fix for the same issue that a8b14744429f ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular and bin files") addresses for v3.13. Due to the extensive kernfs reorganization in v3.14 branch, the same fix couldn't be ported as-is. The v3.13 fix was ignored while merging it into v3.14 branch. 027a485d12e0 ("sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files depending on mmap") assigned different lockdep key to sysfs_open_file->mutex depending on whether the file implements mmap or not in an attempt to avoid spurious lockdep warning caused by merging of regular and bin file paths. While this restored some of the original behavior of using different locks (at least lockdep is concerned) for the different clases of files. The restoration wasn't full because now the lockdep key assignment depends on whether the file has mmap or not instead of whether it's a regular file or not. This means that bin files which don't implement mmap will get assigned the same lockdep class as regular files. This is problematic because file_operations for bin files still implements the mmap file operation and checking whether the sysfs file actually implements mmap happens in the file operation after grabbing @sysfs_open_file->mutex. We still end up adding locking dependency from mmap locking to sysfs_open_file->mutex to the regular file mutex which triggers spurious circular locking warning. For v3.13, a8b14744429f ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular and bin files") fixed it by giving sysfs_open_file->mutex different lockdep keys depending on whether the file is regular or bin instead of whether mmap exists or not; however, due to the way sysfs is now layered behind kernfs, this approach is no longer viable. kernfs can tell whether a sysfs node has mmap implemented or not but can't tell whether a bin file from a regular one. This patch updates kernfs such that kernfs_file_mmap() checks SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_MMAP and bail before grabbing sysfs_open_file->mutex so that it doesn't add spurious locking dependency from mmap to sysfs_open_file->mutex and changes sysfs so that it specifies kernfs_ops->mmap iff the sysfs file implements mmap. Combined, this ensures that sysfs_open_file->mutex is grabbed under mmap path iff the sysfs file actually implements mmap. As sysfs_open_file->mutex is already given a different lockdep key if mmap is implemented, this removes the spurious locking dependency.

2013-11-29sysfs, kernfs: revamp sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotationTejun Heo1-11/+24
Currently, sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotation uses attribute->[s]key as the lockdep key, which forces kernfs_create_file_ns() to assume that sysfs_dirent->priv is pointing to a struct attribute which may not be true for non-sysfs users. This patch restructures the lockdep annotation such that * kernfs_ops contains lockdep_key which is used by default for files created kernfs_create_file_ns(). * kernfs_create_file_ns_key() is introduced which takes an extra @key argument. The created file will use the specified key for active_ref lockdep annotation. If NULL is specified, lockdep for the file is disabled. * sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated to use kernfs_create_file_ns_key() with the appropriate key from the attribute or NULL if ignore_lockdep is set. This makes the lockdep annotation properly contained in kernfs while allowing sysfs to cleanly keep its current behavior. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior differences.

2013-11-29sysfs, kernfs: remove SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTRTejun Heo1-15/+8
After kernfs_ops and sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size addition, the distinction between SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR and SYSFS_KOBJ_ATTR is only necessary while creating files to decide which kernfs_ops to use. Afterwards, they behave exactly the same. This patch removes SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR along with sysfs_is_bin(). sysfs_add_file[_mode_ns]() are updated to take bool @is_bin instead of @type. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes. This completely isolates the distinction between the two sysfs file types in the sysfs layer proper.

2013-11-29sysfs, kernfs: add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.sizeTejun Heo1-0/+6
sysfs sets the size of regular files unconditionally at PAGE_SIZE and takes the size of bin files from bin_attribute. The latter is a pretty bad interface which forces bin_attribute users to create a separate copy of bin_attribute for each instance of the file - e.g. pci resource files. Add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size so that the size can be specified separately. This unifies inode init paths of ATTR and BIN_ATTR identical and allows for generic size handling for kernfs. Unfortunately, this grows the size of sysfs_dirent by sizeof(loff_t). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2013-11-29sysfs, kernfs: introduce kernfs_opsTejun Heo1-34/+112
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly. This patch introduces kernfs_ops which hosts methods kernfs users implement and updates fs/sysfs/file.c such that sysfs_kf_*() functions populate kernfs_ops and kernfs_file_*() functions call the matching entries from kernfs_ops. kernfs_ops contains the following groups of methods. * seq_show() - for kernfs files which use seq_file for reads. * read() - for direct read implementations. Used iff seq_show() is not implemented. * write() - for writes. * mmap() - for mmaps. Notes: * sysfs_elem_attr->ops is added so that kernfs_ops can be accessed from sysfs_dirent. kernfs_ops() helper is added to verify locking and access the field. * SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_(SEQ_SHOW|MMAP) added. sd->s_attr->ops is accessible only while holding active_ref and there are cases where we want to take different actions depending on which ops are implemented. These two flags cache whether the two ops are implemented for those. * kernfs_file_*() no longer test sysfs type but chooses different behaviors depending on which methods in kernfs_ops are implemented. The conversions are trivial except for the open path. As kernfs_file_open() now decides whether to allow read/write accesses depending on the kernfs_ops implemented, the presence of methods in kobjs and attribute_bin should be propagated to kernfs_ops. sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated so that it propagates presence / absence of the callbacks through _empty, _ro, _wo, _rw kernfs_ops.

The warning is false positive as of->mutex is per open-file and the two paths belong to two different files. This warning didn't trigger before regular and bin file supports were merged because only bin file supported mmap and the other side of locking happened only on regular files which used equivalent but separate locking. It'd be best if we give separate locking classes per file but we can't easily do that. Let's differentiate on ->mmap() for now.

2013-11-01sysfs: use generic_file_llseek() for sysfs_file_operationsTejun Heo1-1/+1
13c589d5b0ac6 ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files") converted regular sysfs files to use seq_file. The commit substituted generic_file_llseek() with seq_lseek() for llseek implementation. Before the change, all regular sysfs files were allowed to seek to any position in [0, PAGE_SIZE] as the file size is always PAGE_SIZE and generic_file_llseek() allows any seeking inside the range under file size; however, seq_lseek()'s behavior is different. It traverses the output by repeatedly invoking ->show() until it reaches the target offset or traversal indicates EOF. As seq_files are fully dynamic and may not end at all, it doesn't support seeking from the end (SEEK_END). Apparently, there are userland tools which uses SEEK_END to discover the buffer size to use and the switch to seq_lseek() disturbs them as SEEK_END fails with -EINVAL. The only benefits of using seq_lseek() instead of generic_file_llseek() are * Early failure. If traversing to certain file position should fail, seq_lseek() will report such failures on lseek(2) instead of the following read/write operations. * EOF detection. While SEEK_END is not supported, SEEK_SET/CUR + large offset can be used to detect eof - eof at the time of the seek anyway as the file size may change dynamically. Both aren't necessary for sysfs or prospect kernfs users. Revert to genefic_file_llseek() and preserve the original behavior.

2013-10-29sysfs: merge sysfs_elem_bin_attr into sysfs_elem_attrTejun Heo1-4/+4
3124eb1679 ("sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling") folded bin file handling into regular file handling. Among other things, bin file now shares the same open path including sysfs_open_dirent association using sysfs_dirent->s_attr.open. This is buggy because ->s_bin_attr lives in the same union and doesn't have the field. This bug doesn't trigger because sysfs_elem_bin_attr doesn't have an active field at the conflicting position. It does have a field "buffers" but it isn't used anymore. This patch collapses sysfs_elem_bin_attr into sysfs_elem_attr so that the bin_attr is accessed through ->s_attr.bin_attr which lives with ->s_attr.attr in an anonymous union. The code paths already assume bin_attr contains attr as the first element, so this doesn't add any more assumptions while making it explicit that the two types are handled together.

Before patch(sysfs: prepare path write for unified regular / bin file handling), when size of bin file is zero, writting still can continue, but this patch changes the behaviour. The worse thing is that firmware loader is broken by this patch, and user space application can't write to firmware bin file any more because both firmware loader and drivers can't know at advance how large the firmware file is and have to set its initialized size as zero.
