* fuse: invalidation reverse callsJohn Muir2009-06-301-0/+81
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS caches. Two notifications are added: 1) inode invalidation - invalidate cached attributes - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional) 2) dentry invalidation - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress. To prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during the invalidation and taken for write in the ->kill_sb callback.

* saner FASYNC handling on file closeAl Viro2008-11-011-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync() need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget. So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set. And lose that crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we don't have to bother anymore.

* fuse: support writable mmapMiklos Szeredi2008-04-301-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Quoting Linus (3 years ago, FUSE inclusion discussions): "User-space filesystems are hard to get right. I'd claim that they are almost impossible, unless you limit them somehow (shared writable mappings are the nastiest part - if you don't have those, you can reasonably limit your problems by limiting the number of dirty pages you accept through normal "write()" calls)." Instead of attempting the impossible, I've just waited for the dirty page accounting infrastructure to materialize (thanks to Peter Zijlstra and others). This nicely solved the biggest problem: limiting the number of pages used for write caching. Some small details remained, however, which this largish patch attempts to address. It provides a page writeback implementation for fuse, which is completely safe against VM related deadlocks. Performance may not be very good for certain usage patterns, but generally it should be acceptable. It has been tested extensively with fsx-linux and bash-shared-mapping. Fuse page writeback design -------------------------- fuse_writepage() allocates a new temporary page with GFP_NOFS|__GFP_HIGHMEM. It copies the contents of the original page, and queues a WRITE request to the userspace filesystem using this temp page. The writeback is finished instantly from the MM's point of view: the page is removed from the radix trees, and the PageDirty and PageWriteback flags are cleared. For the duration of the actual write, the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter is incremented. The per-bdi writeback count is not decremented until the actual write completes. On dirtying the page, fuse waits for a previous write to finish before proceeding. This makes sure, there can only be one temporary page used at a time for one cached page. This approach is wasteful in both memory and CPU bandwidth, so why is this complication needed? The basic problem is that there can be no guarantee about the time in which the userspace filesystem will complete a write. It may be buggy or even malicious, and fail to complete WRITE requests. We don't want unrelated parts of the system to grind to a halt in such cases. Also a filesystem may need additional resources (particularly memory) to complete a WRITE request. There's a great danger of a deadlock if that allocation may wait for the writepage to finish. Currently there are several cases where the kernel can block on page writeback: - allocation order is larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER - page migration - throttle_vm_writeout (through NR_WRITEBACK) - sync(2) Of course in some cases (fsync, msync) we explicitly want to allow blocking. So for these cases new code has to be added to fuse, since the VM is not tracking writeback pages for us any more. As an extra safetly measure, the maximum dirty ratio allocated to a single fuse filesystem is set to 1% by default. This way one (or several) buggy or malicious fuse filesystems cannot slow down the rest of the system by hogging dirty memory. With appropriate privileges, this limit can be raised through '/sys/class/bdi/<bdi>/max_ratio'.

* fuse: limit queued background requestsMiklos Szeredi2008-02-061-46/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Libfuse basically creates a new thread for each new request. This is fine for synchronous requests, which are naturally limited. However background requests (especially writepage) can cause a thread creation storm. To avoid this, limit the number of background requests available to userspace. This is done by introducing another queue for background requests, and a counter for the number of "active" requests, which are currently available for userspace.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't return -ENOENT for a read() on the fuse device when the request was aborted. Instead return -ENODEV, meaning the filesystem has been force-umounted or aborted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't set 'aborted' flag on a request if it's interrupted. We have to wait for the answer anyway, and this would only a very little time while copying the reply. This means, that write() on the fuse device will not return -ENOENT during normal operation, only if the filesystem is aborted by a forced umount or through the fusectl interface.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was held due to a background request containing a file reference. Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would release the superblock.

* [fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()Miklos Szeredi2006-04-111-12/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was held due to a background request containing a file reference. Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would release the superblock. Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock results. The chosen soltuion is to get rid of sbput_sem, and instead use the spinlock to ensure the referenced inodes/file are released only once. Since the actual release may sleep, defer these outside the locked region, but using local variables instead of the structure members. This is a much more rubust solution.

* [PATCH] fuse: account background requestsMiklos Szeredi2006-04-111-4/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch removed limiting the number of outstanding requests. This patch adds a much simpler limiting, that is also compatible with file locking operations. A task may have at most one synchronous request allocated. So these requests need not be otherwise limited. However the number of background requests (release, forget, asynchronous reads, interrupted requests) can grow indefinitely. This can be used by a malicous user to cause FUSE to allocate arbitrary amounts of unswappable kernel memory, denying service. For this reason add a limit for the number of background requests, and block allocations of new requests until the number goes bellow the limit. Also use this mechanism to block all requests until the INIT reply is received.

* [PATCH] fuse: clean up request accountingMiklos Szeredi2006-04-111-64/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | FUSE allocated most requests from a fixed size pool filled at mount time. However in some cases (release/forget) non-pool requests were used. File locking operations aren't well served by the request pool, since they may block indefinetly thus exhausting the pool. This patch removes the request pool and always allocates requests on demand.

* [PATCH] fuse: simplify lockingMiklos Szeredi2006-04-111-20/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is in preparation for removing the global spinlock in favor of a per-mount one. The only critical part is the interaction between fuse_dev_release() and fuse_fill_super(): fuse_dev_release() must see the assignment to file->private_data, otherwise it will leak the reference to fuse_conn. This is ensured by the fput() operation, which will synchronize the assignment with other CPU's that may do a final fput() soon after this. Also redundant locking is removed from fuse_fill_super(), where exclusion is already ensured by the BKL held for this function by the VFS.
