2018-07-20ovl: Copy up meta inode data from lowest data inodeVivek Goyal
So far lower could not be a meta inode. So whenever it was time to copy up data of a meta inode, we could copy it up from top most lower dentry. But now lower itself can be a metacopy inode. That means data copy up needs to take place from a data inode in metacopy inode chain. Find lower data inode in the chain and use that for data copy up. Introduced a helper called ovl_path_lowerdata() to find the lower data inode chain.

2018-07-20ovl: A new xattr OVL_XATTR_METACOPY for file on upperVivek Goyal
Now we will have the capability to have upper inodes which might be only metadata copy up and data is still on lower inode. So add a new xattr OVL_XATTR_METACOPY to distinguish between two cases. Presence of OVL_XATTR_METACOPY reflects that file has been copied up metadata only and and data will be copied up later from lower origin. So this xattr is set when a metadata copy takes place and cleared when data copy takes place. We also use a bit in ovl_inode->flags to cache OVL_UPPERDATA which reflects whether ovl inode has data or not (as opposed to metadata only copy up). If a file is copied up metadata only and later when same file is opened for WRITE, then data copy up takes place. We copy up data, remove METACOPY xattr and then set the UPPERDATA flag in ovl_inode->flags. While all these operations happen with oi->lock held, read side of oi->flags can be lockless. That is another thread on another cpu can check if UPPERDATA flag is set or not. So this gives us an ordering requirement w.r.t UPPERDATA flag. That is, if another cpu sees UPPERDATA flag set, then it should be guaranteed that effects of data copy up and remove xattr operations are also visible. For example. CPU1 CPU2 ovl_open() acquire(oi->lock) ovl_open_maybe_copy_up() ovl_copy_up_data() open_open_need_copy_up() vfs_removexattr() ovl_already_copied_up() ovl_dentry_needs_data_copy_up() ovl_set_flag(OVL_UPPERDATA) ovl_test_flag(OVL_UPPERDATA) release(oi->lock) Say CPU2 is copying up data and in the end sets UPPERDATA flag. But if CPU1 perceives the effects of setting UPPERDATA flag but not the effects of preceding operations (ex. upper that is not fully copied up), it will be a problem. Hence this patch introduces smp_wmb() on setting UPPERDATA flag operation and smp_rmb() on UPPERDATA flag test operation. May be some other lock or barrier is already covering it. But I am not sure what that is and is it obvious enough that we will not break it in future. So hence trying to be safe here and introducing barriers explicitly for UPPERDATA flag/bit.

Directories are copied up to indexdir, then an index entry is created in indexdir with 'upper' xattr pointing to the copied up dir and then the copied up dir is moved to upper dir. Directory index is also used for consistency verification, like detecting multiple redirected dirs to the same lower dir on lookup.

2017-09-13mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flagMichal Hocko
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("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.

2017-07-04ovl: persistent overlay inode nlink for indexed inodesAmir Goldstein
With inodes index enabled, an overlay inode nlink counts the union of upper and non-covered lower hardlinks. During the lifetime of a non-pure upper inode, the following nlink modifying operations can happen: 1. Lower hardlink copy up 2. Upper hardlink created, unlinked or renamed over 3. Lower hardlink whiteout or renamed over For the first, copy up case, the union nlink does not change, whether the operation succeeds or fails, but the upper inode nlink may change. Therefore, before copy up, we store the union nlink value relative to the lower inode nlink in the index inode xattr trusted.overlay.nlink. For the second, upper hardlink case, the union nlink should be incremented or decremented IFF the operation succeeds, aligned with nlink change of the upper inode. Therefore, before link/unlink/rename, we store the union nlink value relative to the upper inode nlink in the index inode. For the last, lower cover up case, we simplify things by preceding the whiteout or cover up with copy up. This makes sure that there is an index upper inode where the nlink xattr can be stored before the copied up upper entry is unlink. Return the overlay inode nlinks for indexed upper inodes on stat(2).

2017-07-04ovl: implement index dir copy upAmir Goldstein
Implement a copy up method for non-dir objects using index dir to prevent breaking lower hardlinks on copy up. This method requires that the inodes index dir feature was enabled and that all underlying fs support file handle encoding/decoding. On the first lower hardlink copy up, upper file is created in index dir, named after the hex representation of the lower origin inode file handle. On the second lower hardlink copy up, upper file is found in index dir, by the same lower handle key. On either case, the upper indexed inode is then linked to the copy up upper path. The index entry remains linked for future lower hardlink copy up and for lower to upper inode map, that is needed for exporting overlayfs to NFS.

2017-07-04ovl: verify index dir matches upper dirAmir Goldstein
An index dir contains persistent hardlinks to files in upper dir. Therefore, we must never mount an existing index dir with a differnt upper dir.

Add an 'is_upper' flag to the overlay file handle encoding and set it when encoding the upper root file handle.

2017-05-05ovl: store file handle of lower inode on copy upAmir Goldstein
Sometimes it is interesting to know if an upper file is pure upper or a copy up target, and if it is a copy up target, it may be interesting to find the copy up origin. This will be used to preserve lower inode numbers across copy up. Store the lower inode file handle in upper inode extended attribute overlay.origin on copy up to use it later for these cases. Store the lower filesystem uuid along side the file handle, so we can validate that we are looking for the origin file in the original fs. If lower fs does not support NFS export ops store a zero sized xattr so we can always use the overlay.origin xattr to distinguish between a copy up and a pure upper inode.
