Jan Kara 925d1132a0 fsnotify: remove mark->free_list
Free list is used when all marks on given inode / mount should be
destroyed when inode / mount is going away.  However we can free all of
the marks without using a special list with some care.

Jan Kara 0809ab69a2 fsnotify: unify inode and mount marks handling
There's a lot of common code in inode and mount marks handling.  Factor it
out to a common helper function.

Jan Kara 8edc6e1688 fanotify: fix notification of groups with inode & mount marks
fsnotify() needs to merge inode and mount marks lists when notifying
groups about events so that ignore masks from inode marks are reflected
in mount mark notifications and groups are notified in proper order
(according to priorities).

Currently the sorting of the lists done by fsnotify_add_inode_mark() /
fsnotify_add_vfsmount_mark() and fsnotify() differed which resulted
ignore masks not being used in some cases.

Fix the problem by always using the same comparison function when
sorting / merging the mark lists.

Thanks to Heinrich Schuchardt for improvements of my patch.

Eric Paris 02436668d9 fsnotify: remove global fsnotify groups lists
The global fsnotify groups lists were invented as a way to increase the
performance of fsnotify by shortcutting events which were not interesting.
With the changes to walk the object lists rather than global groups lists
these shortcuts are not useful.

Eric Paris 03930979af fsnotify: remove the global masks
Because we walk the object->fsnotify_marks list instead of the global
fsnotify groups list we don't need the fsnotify_inode_mask and
fsnotify_vfsmount_mask as these were simply shortcuts in fsnotify() for
performance.  They are now extra checks, rip them out.

Eric Paris 75c1be487a fsnotify: srcu to protect read side of inode and vfsmount locks
Currently reading the inode->i_fsnotify_marks or

read and the write side.  This patch protects the read side of those lists

Eric Paris 90b1e7a578 fsnotify: allow marks to not pin inodes in core
inotify marks must pin inodes in core.  dnotify doesn't technically need to
since they are closed when the directory is closed.  fanotify also need to
pin inodes in core as it works today.  But the next step is to introduce
the concept of 'ignored masks' which is actually a mask of events for an
inode of no interest.  I claim that these should be liberally sent to the
kernel and should not pin the inode in core.  If the inode is brought back
in the listener will get an event it may have thought excluded, but this is
not a serious situation and one any listener should deal with.

This patch lays the ground work for non-pinning inode marks by using lazy
inode pinning.  We do not pin a mark until it has a non-zero mask entry.  If a
listener new sets a mask we never pin the inode.

Eric Paris 7131485a93 fsnotify: mount point listeners list and global mask
currently all of the notification systems implemented select which inodes
they care about and receive messages only about those inodes (or the
children of those inodes.)  This patch begins to flesh out fsnotify support
for the concept of listeners that want to hear notification for an inode
accessed below a given monut point.  This patch implements a second list
of fsnotify groups to hold these types of groups and a second global mask
to hold the events of interest for this type of group.

The reason we want a second group list and mask is because the inode based
notification should_send_event support which makes each group look for a mark
on the given inode.  With one nfsmount listener that means that every group would
have to take the inode->i_lock, look for their mark, not find one, and return
for every operation.   By seperating vfsmount from inode listeners only when
there is a inode listener will the inode groups have to look for their
mark and take the inode lock.  vfsmount listeners will have to grab the lock and
look for a mark but there should be fewer of them, and one vfsmount listener
won't cause the i_lock to be grabbed and released for every fsnotify group
on every io operation.

Eric Paris 4ca763523e fsnotify: add groups to fsnotify_inode_groups when registering inode watch
Currently all fsnotify groups are added immediately to the
fsnotify_inode_groups list upon creation.  This means, even groups with no
watches (common for audit) will be on the global tracking list and will
get checked for every event.  This patch adds groups to the global list on
when the first inode mark is added to the group.

on a queue until the listener is ready to receive it.  This patch
implements a generic notification queue for inotify (and later fanotify) to

Eric Paris 3be25f49b9 fsnotify: add marks to inodes so groups can interpret how to handle those inodes
This patch creates a way for fsnotify groups to attach marks to inodes.
These marks have little meaning to the generic fsnotify infrastructure
and thus their meaning should be interpreted by the group that attached
them to the inode's list.

dnotify and inotify  will make use of these markings to indicate which
inodes are of interest to their respective groups.  But this implementation
has the useful property that in the future other listeners could actually
use the marks for the exact opposite reason, aka to indicate which inodes
it had NO interest in.

Eric Paris 90586523eb fsnotify: unified filesystem notification backend
fsnotify is a backend for filesystem notification.  fsnotify does
not provide any userspace interface but does provide the basis
needed for other notification schemes such as dnotify.  fsnotify
can be extended to be the backend for inotify or the upcoming
fanotify.  fsnotify provides a mechanism for "groups" to register for
some set of filesystem events and to then deliver those events to
those groups for processing.

fsnotify has a number of benefits, the first being actually shrinking the size
of an inode.  Before fsnotify to support both dnotify and inotify an inode had

        unsigned long           i_dnotify_mask; /* Directory notify events */
        struct dnotify_struct   *i_dnotify; /* for directory notifications */
        struct list_head        inotify_watches; /* watches on this inode */
        struct mutex            inotify_mutex;  /* protects the watches list

But with fsnotify this same functionallity (and more) is done with just

        __u32                   i_fsnotify_mask; /* all events for this inode */
        struct hlist_head       i_fsnotify_mark_entries; /* marks on this inode */

That's right, inotify, dnotify, and fanotify all in 64 bits.  We used that
much space just in inotify_watches alone, before this patch set.

fsnotify object lifetime and locking is MUCH better than what we have today.
inotify locking is incredibly complex.  See 8f7b0ba1c8 as an example of
what's been busted since inception.  inotify needs to know internal semantics
of superblock destruction and unmounting to function.  The inode pinning and
vfs contortions are horrible.

no fsnotify implementers do allocation under locks.  This means things like
f04b30de3 which (due to an overabundance of caution) changes GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_NOFS can be reverted.  There are no longer any allocation rules when using
or implementing your own fsnotify listener.

fsnotify paves the way for fanotify.  In brief fanotify is a notification
mechanism that delivers the lisener both an 'event' and an open file descriptor
to the object in question.  This means that fanotify is pathname agnostic.
Some on lkml may not care for the original companies or users that pushed for
TALPA, but fanotify was designed with flexibility and input for other users in
mind.  The readahead group expressed interest in fanotify as it could be used
to profile disk access on boot without breaking the audit system.  The desktop
search groups have also expressed interest in fanotify as it solves a number
of the race conditions and problems present with managing inotify when more
than a limited number of specific files are of interest.  fanotify can provide
for a userspace access control system which makes it a clean interface for AV
vendors to hook without trying to do binary patching on the syscall table,
LSM, and everywhere else they do their things today.  With this patch series
fanotify can be implemented in less than 1200 lines of easy to review code.
Almost all of which is the socket based user interface.

This patch series builds fsnotify to the point that it can implement
dnotify and inotify_user.  Patches exist and will be sent soon after
acceptance to finish the in kernel inotify conversion (audit) and implement
fanotify.
