fsnotify() treats FS_MODIFY events specially - it does not skip them
even if the FS_MODIFY event does not apear in the object's fsnotify
mask. This is because send_to_group() checks if FS_MODIFY needs to
clear ignored mask of marks.
The common case is that an object does not have any mark with ignored
mask and in particular, that it does not have a mark with ignored mask
and without the FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY flag.
Set FS_MODIFY in object's fsnotify mask during fsnotify_recalc_mask()
if object has a mark with an ignored mask and without the
FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY flag and remove the special
treatment of FS_MODIFY in fsnotify(), so that FS_MODIFY events could
be optimized in the common case.
Call fsnotify_recalc_mask() from fanotify after adding or removing an
ignored mask from a mark without FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY
or when adding the FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY flag to a mark
with ignored mask (the flag cannot be removed by fanotify uapi).
Performance results for doing 10000000 write(2)s to tmpfs:
vanilla patched
without notification mark 25.486+-1.054 24.965+-0.244
with notification mark 30.111+-0.139 26.891+-1.355
So we can see the overhead of notification subsystem has been
drastically reduced.

The dnotify FS_DN_RENAME event is used to request notification about
a move within the same parent directory and was always coupled with
the FS_MOVED_FROM event.
Rename the FS_DN_RENAME event flag to FS_RENAME, decouple it from
FS_MOVED_FROM and report it with the moved dentry instead of the moved
inode, so it has the information about both old and new parent and name.
Generate the FS_RENAME event regardless of same parent dir and apply
the "same parent" rule in the generic fsnotify_handle_event() helper
that is used to call backends with ->handle_inode_event() method
(i.e. dnotify). The ->handle_inode_event() method is not rich enough to
report both old and new parent and name anyway.
The enriched event is reported to fanotify over the ->handle_event()
method with the old and new dir inode marks in marks array slots for
ITER_TYPE_INODE and a new iter type slot ITER_TYPE_INODE2.
The enriched event will be used for reporting old and new parent+name to
fanotify groups with FAN_RENAME events.

fsnotify_parent() used to send two separate events to backends when a
parent inode is watching children and the child inode is also watching.
In an attempt to avoid duplicate events in fanotify, we unified the two
backend callbacks to a single callback and handled the reporting of the
two separate events for the relevant backends (inotify and dnotify).
However the handling is buggy and can result in inotify and dnotify
listeners receiving events of the type they never asked for or spurious
events.
The problem is the unified event callback with two inode marks (parent and
child) is called when any of the parent and child inodes are watched and
interested in the event, but the parent inode's mark that is interested
in the event on the child is not necessarily the one we are currently
reporting to (it could belong to a different group).
So before reporting the parent or child event flavor to backend we need
to check that the mark is really interested in that event flavor.
The semantics of INODE and CHILD marks were hard to follow and made the
logic more complicated than it should have been. Replace it with INODE
and PARENT marks semantics to hopefully make the logic more clear.
Thanks to Hugh Dickins for spotting a bug in the earlier version of this
patch.

The handle_inode_event() interface was added as (quoting comment):
"a simple variant of handle_event() for groups that only have inode
marks and don't have ignore mask".
In other words, all backends except fanotify. The inotify backend
also falls under this category, but because it required extra arguments
it was left out of the initial pass of backends conversion to the
simple interface.
This results in code duplication between the generic helper
fsnotify_handle_event() and the inotify_handle_event() callback
which also happen to be buggy code.
Generalize the handle_inode_event() arguments and add the check for
FS_EXCL_UNLINK flag to the generic helper, so inotify backend could
be converted to use the simple interface.

The victim inode's parent and name info is required when an event
needs to be delivered to a group interested in filename info OR
when the inode's parent is interested in an event on its children.
Let us call the first condition 'parent_needed' and the second
condition 'parent_interested'.
In fsnotify_parent(), the condition where the inode's parent is
interested in some events on its children, but not necessarily
interested the specific event is called 'parent_watched'.
fsnotify_parent() tests the condition (!parent_watched && !parent_needed)
for sending the event without parent and name info, which is correct.
It then wrongly assumes that parent_watched implies !parent_needed
and tests the condition (parent_watched && !parent_interested)
for sending the event without parent and name info, which is wrong,
because parent may still be needed by some group.
For example, after initializing a group with FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME and
adding a FAN_MARK_MOUNT with FAN_OPEN mask, open events on non-directory
children of "testdir" are delivered with file name info.
After adding another mark to the same group on the parent "testdir"
with FAN_CLOSE|FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD mask, open events on non-directory
children of "testdir" are no longer delivered with file name info.
Fix the logic and use auxiliary variables to clarify the conditions.

The method handle_event() grew a lot of complexity due to the design of
fanotify and merging of ignore masks.
Most backends do not care about this complex functionality, so we can hide
this complexity from them.
Introduce a method handle_inode_event() that serves those backends and
passes a single inode mark and less arguments.
This change converts all backends except fanotify and inotify to use the
simplified handle_inode_event() method. In pricipal, inotify could have
also used the new method, but that would require passing more arguments
on the simple helper (data, data_type, cookie), so we leave it with the
handle_event() method.

Similar to events "on child" to watching directory, send event
with parent/name info if sb/mount/non-dir marks are interested in
parent/name info.
The FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD flag can be set on sb/mount/non-dir marks to specify
interest in parent/name info for events on non-directory inodes.
Events on "orphan" children (disconnected dentries) are sent without
parent/name info.
Events on directories are sent with parent/name info only if the parent
directory is watching.
After this change, even groups that do not subscribe to events on
children could get an event with mark iterator type TYPE_CHILD and
without mark iterator type TYPE_INODE if fanotify has marks on the same
objects.
dnotify and inotify event handlers can already cope with that situation.
audit does not subscribe to events that are possible on child, so won't
get to this situation. nfsd does not access the marks iterator from its
event handler at the moment, so it is not affected.
This is a bit too fragile, so we should prepare all groups to cope with
mark type TYPE_CHILD preferably using a generic helper.

Instead of calling fsnotify() twice, once with parent inode and once
with child inode, if event should be sent to parent inode, send it
with both parent and child inodes marks in object type iterator and call
the backend handle_event() callback only once.
The parent inode is assigned to the standard "inode" iterator type and
the child inode is assigned to the special "child" iterator type.
In that case, the bit FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD will be set in the event mask,
the dir argument to handle_event will be the parent inode, the file_name
argument to handle_event is non NULL and refers to the name of the child
and the child inode can be accessed with fsnotify_data_inode().
This will allow fanotify to make decisions based on child or parent's
ignored mask. For example, when a parent is interested in a specific
event on its children, but a specific child wishes to ignore this event,
the event will not be reported. This is not what happens with current
code, but according to man page, it is the expected behavior.

The 'inode' argument to handle_event(), sometimes referred to as
'to_tell' is somewhat obsolete.
It is a remnant from the times when a group could only have an inode mark
associated with an event.
We now pass an iter_info array to the callback, with all marks associated
with an event.
Most backends ignore this argument, with two exceptions:
1. dnotify uses it for sanity check that event is on directory
2. fanotify uses it to report fid of directory on directory entry
modification events
Remove the 'inode' argument and add a 'dir' argument.
The callback function signature is deliberately changed, because
the meaning of the argument has changed and the arguments have
been documented.
The 'dir' argument is set to when 'file_name' is specified and it is
referring to the directory that the 'file_name' entry belongs to.

The fsnotify paths are trivial to hit even when there are no watchers and
they are surprisingly expensive. For example, every successful vfs_write()
hits fsnotify_modify which calls both fsnotify_parent and fsnotify unless
FMODE_NONOTIFY is set which is an internal flag invisible to userspace.
As it stands, fsnotify_parent is a guaranteed functional call even if there
are no watchers and fsnotify() does a substantial amount of unnecessary
work before it checks if there are any watchers. A perf profile showed
that applying mnt->mnt_fsnotify_mask in fnotify() was almost half of the
total samples taken in that function during a test. This patch rearranges
the fast paths to reduce the amount of work done when there are no
watchers.
The test motivating this was "perf bench sched messaging --pipe". Despite
the fact the pipes are anonymous, fsnotify is still called a lot and
the overhead is noticeable even though it's completely pointless. It's
likely the overhead is negligible for real IO so this is an extreme
example. This is a comparison of hackbench using processes and pipes on
a 1-socket machine with 8 CPU threads without fanotify watchers.

This is showing that the latencies are improved by roughly 2-9%. The
variability is not shown but some of these results are within the noise
as this workload heavily overloads the machine. That said, the system CPU
usage is reduced by quite a bit so it makes sense to avoid the overhead
even if it is a bit tricky to detect at times. A perf profile of just 1
group of tasks showed that 5.14% of samples taken were in either fsnotify()
or fsnotify_parent(). With the patch, 2.8% of samples were in fsnotify,
mostly function entry and the initial check for watchers. The check for
watchers is complicated enough that inlining it may be controversial.

Dirent events are going to be supported in two flavors:
1. Directory fid info + mask that includes the specific event types
(e.g. FAN_CREATE) and an optional FAN_ONDIR flag.
2. Directory fid info + name + mask that includes only FAN_DIR_MODIFY.
To request the second event flavor, user needs to set the event type
FAN_DIR_MODIFY in the mark mask.
The first flavor is supported since kernel v5.1 for groups initialized
with flag FAN_REPORT_FID. It is intended to be used for watching
directories in "batch mode" - the watcher is notified when directory is
changed and re-scans the directory content in response. This event
flavor is stored more compactly in the event queue, so it is optimal
for workloads with frequent directory changes.
The second event flavor is intended to be used for watching large
directories, where the cost of re-scan of the directory on every change
is considered too high. The watcher getting the event with the directory
fid and entry name is expected to call fstatat(2) to query the content of
the entry after the change.
Legacy inotify events are reported with name and event mask (e.g. "foo",
FAN_CREATE | FAN_ONDIR). That can lead users to the conclusion that
there is *currently* an entry "foo" that is a sub-directory, when in fact
"foo" may be negative or non-dir by the time user gets the event.
To make it clear that the current state of the named entry is unknown,
when reporting an event with name info, fanotify obfuscates the specific
event types (e.g. create,delete,rename) and uses a common event type -
FAN_DIR_MODIFY to describe the change. This should make it harder for
users to make wrong assumptions and write buggy filesystem monitors.
At this point, name info reporting is not yet implemented, so trying to
set FAN_DIR_MODIFY in mark mask will return -EINVAL.

When a filesystem is unmounted, we currently call fsnotify_sb_delete()
before evict_inodes(), which means that fsnotify_unmount_inodes()
must iterate over all inodes on the superblock looking for any inodes
with watches. This is inefficient and can lead to livelocks as it
iterates over many unwatched inodes.
At this point, SB_ACTIVE is gone and dropping refcount to zero kicks
the inode out out immediately, so anything processed by
fsnotify_sb_delete / fsnotify_unmount_inodes gets evicted in that loop.
After that, the call to evict_inodes will evict everything else with a
zero refcount.
This should speed things up overall, and avoid livelocks in
fsnotify_unmount_inodes().

(e.g. FS_OPEN).
Further more, if that event happened on a mount or a filesystem with
a mount/sb mark that does have that event type in their mask, the "on
child" event will be reported on the mount/sb mark. That is not
desired, because user will get a duplicate event for the same action.
Note that the event reported on the victim inode is never merged with
the event reported on the parent inode, because of the check in
should_merge(): old_fsn->inode == new_fsn->inode.
Fix this by looking for a match of an actual event type (i.e. not just
FS_ISDIR) in parent's inode mark mask and by not reporting an "on child"
event to group if event type is only found on mount/sb marks.
[backport hint: The bug seems to have always been in fanotify, but this
patch will only apply cleanly to v4.19.y]

Detaching of mark connector from fsnotify_put_mark() can race with
unmounting of the filesystem like:
CPU1 CPU2
fsnotify_put_mark()
spin_lock(&conn->lock);
...
inode = fsnotify_detach_connector_from_object(conn)
spin_unlock(&conn->lock);
generic_shutdown_super()
fsnotify_unmount_inodes()
sees connector detached for inode
-> nothing to do
evict_inode()
barfs on pending inode reference
iput(inode);
Resulting in "Busy inodes after unmount" message and possible kernel
oops. Make fsnotify_unmount_inodes() properly wait for outstanding inode
references from detached connectors.
Note that the accounting of outstanding inode references in the
superblock can cause some cacheline contention on the counter. OTOH it
happens only during deletion of the last notification mark from an inode
(or during unlinking of watched inode) and that is not too bad. I have
measured time to create & delete inotify watch 100000 times from 64
processes in parallel (each process having its own inotify group and its
own file on a shared superblock) on a 64 CPU machine. Average and
standard deviation of 15 runs look like:
Avg Stddev
Vanilla 9.817400 0.276165
Fixed 9.710467 0.228294
So there's no statistically significant difference.

FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD gets a special treatment in fsnotify() because it is
not a flag specifying an event type, but rather an extra flags that may
be reported along with another event and control the handling of the
event by the backend.
FS_ISDIR is also an "extra flag" and not an "event type" and therefore
desrves the same treatment. With inotify/dnotify backends it was never
possible to set FS_ISDIR in mark masks, so it did not matter.
With fanotify backend, mark adding code jumps through hoops to avoid
setting the FS_ISDIR in the commulative object mask.
Separate the constant ALL_FSNOTIFY_EVENTS to ALL_FSNOTIFY_FLAGS and
ALL_FSNOTIFY_EVENTS, so the latter can be used to test for specific
event types.

Send events to group if super block mark mask matches the event
and unless the same group has an ignore mask on the vfsmount or
the inode on which the event occurred.
Soon, fanotify backend is going to support super block marks and
fanotify backend only supports path type events.

Commit 92183a4289 ("fsnotify: fix ignore mask logic in
send_to_group()") acknoledges the use case of ignoring an event on
an inode mark, because of an ignore mask on a mount mark of the same
group (i.e. I want to get all events on this file, except for the events
that came from that mount).
This change depends on correctly merging the inode marks and mount marks
group lists, so that the mount mark ignore mask would be tested in
send_to_group(). Alas, the merging of the lists did not take into
account the case where event in question is not in the mask of any of
the mount marks.
To fix this, completely remove the tests for inode and mount event masks
from the lists merging code.

inode_mark and vfsmount_mark arguments are passed to handle_event()
operation as function arguments as well as on iter_info struct.
The difference is that iter_info struct may contain marks that should
not be handled and are represented as NULL arguments to inode_mark or
vfsmount_mark.
Instead of passing the inode_mark and vfsmount_mark arguments, add
a report_mask member to iter_info struct to indicate which marks should
be handled, versus marks that should only be kept alive during user
wait.
This change is going to be used for passing more mark types
with handle_event() (i.e. super block marks).

The ignore mask logic in send_to_group() does not match the logic
in fanotify_should_send_event(). In the latter, a vfsmount mark ignore
mask precedes an inode mark mask and in the former, it does not.
That difference may cause events to be sent to fanotify backend for no
reason. Fix the logic in send_to_group() to match that of
fanotify_should_send_event().

This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel
superblock flags.
The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the
moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to.
Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call,
while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb->s_flags.
The script to do this was:

# there are two places where we really deal with superblock flags.

Use helpers to get first and next marks from connector.
Also get rid of inode_node/vfsmount_node local variables, which just refers
to the same objects as iter_info. There was an srcu_dereference() for
foo_node, but that's completely superfluous since we've already done it
when obtaining foo_node.
Also get rid of inode_group/vfsmount_group local variables; checking
against non-NULL for these is the same as checking against non-NULL
inode_mark/vfsmount_mark.

We may fail to pin one of the marks in fsnotify_prepare_user_wait() when
dropping the srcu read lock, resulting in use after free at the next
iteration.
Solution is to store both marks in iter_info instead of just the one we'll
be sending the event for.
