autofs4: use lookup intent flags to trigger mounts When an open(2) call is made on an autofs mount point directory that already exists and the O_DIRECTORY flag is not used the needed mount callback to the daemon is not done. This leads to the path walk continuing resulting in a callback to the daemon with an incorrect key. open(2) is called without O_DIRECTORY by the "find" utility but this should be handled properly anyway. This happens because autofs needs to use the lookup flags to decide when to callback to the daemon to perform a mount to prevent mount storms. For example, an autofs indirect mount map that has the "browse" option will have the mount point directories are pre-created and the stat(2) call made by a color ls against each directory will cause all these directories to be mounted. It is unfortunate we need to resort to this but mount maps can be quite large. Additionally, if a user manually umounts an autofs indirect mount the directory isn't removed which also leads to this situation. To resolve this autofs needs to use the lookup intent flags to enable it to make this decision. This patch adds this check and triggers a call back if any of the lookup intent flags are set as all these calls warrant a mount attempt be requested. I know that external VFS code which uses the lookup flags is something that the VFS would like to eliminate but I have no choice as I can't see any other way to do this. A VFS dentry or inode operation callback which returns the lookup "type" (requires a definition) would be sufficient. But this change is needed now and I'm not aware of the form that coming VFS changes will take so I'm not willing to propose anything along these lines. If anyone can provide an alternate method I would be happy to use it.

autofs4: fix execution order race in mount request code Jeff Moyer has identified a race in due to an execution order dependency in the autofs4 function root.c:try_to_fill_dentry(). Jeff's description of this race is: "P1 does a lookup of /mount/submount/foo. Since the VFS can't find an entry for "foo" under /mount/submount, it calls into the autofs4 kernel module to allocate a new dentry, D1. The kernel creates a new waitq for this lookup and calls the daemon to perform the mount. The daemon performs a mkdir of the "foo" directory under /mount/submount, which ends up creating a *new* dentry, D2. Then, P2 does a lookup of /mount/submount/foo. The VFS path walking logic finds a dentry in the dcache, D2, and calls the revalidate function with this. In the autofs4 revalidate code, we then trigger a mount, since the dentry is an empty directory that isn't a mountpoint, and so set DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING and call into the wait code to trigger the mount. The wait code finds our existing waitq entry (since it is keyed off of the directory name) and adds itself to the list of waiters. After the daemon finishes the mount, it calls back into the kernel to release the waiters. When this happens, P1 is woken up and goes about clearing the DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag, but it does this in D1! So, given that P1 in our case is a program that will immediately try to access a file under /mount/submount/foo, we end up finding the dentry D2 which still has the pending flag set, and we set out to wait for a mount *again*! So, one way to address this is to re-do the lookup at the end of try_to_fill_dentry, and to clear the pending flag on the hashed dentry. This seems a sane approach to me." And Jeff's patch does this.

autofs4: use look aside list for lookups A while ago a patch to resolve a deadlock during directory creation was merged. This delayed the hashing of lookup dentrys until the ->mkdir() (or ->symlink()) operation completed to ensure we always went through ->lookup() instead of also having processes go through ->revalidate() so our VFS locking remained consistent. Now we are seeing a couple of side affects of that change in situations with heavy mount activity. Two cases have been identified: 1) When a mount request is triggered, due to the delayed hashing, the directory created by user space for the mount point doesn't have the DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag set. In the case of an autofs multi-mount where a tree of mount point directories are created this can lead to the path walk continuing rather than the dentry being sent to the wait queue to wait for request completion. This is because, if the pending flag isn't set, the criteria for deciding this is a mount in progress fails to hold, namely that the dentry is not a mount point and has no subdirectories. 2) A mount request dentry is initially created negative and unhashed. It remains this way until the ->mkdir() callback completes. Since it is unhashed a fresh dentry is used when the user space mount request creates the mount point directory. This leaves the original dentry negative and unhashed. But revalidate has no way to tell the VFS that the dentry has changed, other than to force another ->lookup() by returning false, which is at best wastefull and at worst not possible. This results in an -ENOENT return from the original path walk when in fact the mount succeeded. To resolve this we need to ensure that the same dentry is used in all calls to ->lookup() during the course of a mount request. This patch achieves that by adding the initial dentry to a look aside list and removes it at ->mkdir() or ->symlink() completion (or when the dentry is released), since these are the only create operations autofs4 supports.

autofs4: use look aside list for lookups A while ago a patch to resolve a deadlock during directory creation was merged. This delayed the hashing of lookup dentrys until the ->mkdir() (or ->symlink()) operation completed to ensure we always went through ->lookup() instead of also having processes go through ->revalidate() so our VFS locking remained consistent. Now we are seeing a couple of side affects of that change in situations with heavy mount activity. Two cases have been identified: 1) When a mount request is triggered, due to the delayed hashing, the directory created by user space for the mount point doesn't have the DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag set. In the case of an autofs multi-mount where a tree of mount point directories are created this can lead to the path walk continuing rather than the dentry being sent to the wait queue to wait for request completion. This is because, if the pending flag isn't set, the criteria for deciding this is a mount in progress fails to hold, namely that the dentry is not a mount point and has no subdirectories. 2) A mount request dentry is initially created negative and unhashed. It remains this way until the ->mkdir() callback completes. Since it is unhashed a fresh dentry is used when the user space mount request creates the mount point directory. This leaves the original dentry negative and unhashed. But revalidate has no way to tell the VFS that the dentry has changed, other than to force another ->lookup() by returning false, which is at best wastefull and at worst not possible. This results in an -ENOENT return from the original path walk when in fact the mount succeeded. To resolve this we need to ensure that the same dentry is used in all calls to ->lookup() during the course of a mount request. This patch achieves that by adding the initial dentry to a look aside list and removes it at ->mkdir() or ->symlink() completion (or when the dentry is released), since these are the only create operations autofs4 supports.

autofs4: use look aside list for lookups A while ago a patch to resolve a deadlock during directory creation was merged. This delayed the hashing of lookup dentrys until the ->mkdir() (or ->symlink()) operation completed to ensure we always went through ->lookup() instead of also having processes go through ->revalidate() so our VFS locking remained consistent. Now we are seeing a couple of side affects of that change in situations with heavy mount activity. Two cases have been identified: 1) When a mount request is triggered, due to the delayed hashing, the directory created by user space for the mount point doesn't have the DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag set. In the case of an autofs multi-mount where a tree of mount point directories are created this can lead to the path walk continuing rather than the dentry being sent to the wait queue to wait for request completion. This is because, if the pending flag isn't set, the criteria for deciding this is a mount in progress fails to hold, namely that the dentry is not a mount point and has no subdirectories. 2) A mount request dentry is initially created negative and unhashed. It remains this way until the ->mkdir() callback completes. Since it is unhashed a fresh dentry is used when the user space mount request creates the mount point directory. This leaves the original dentry negative and unhashed. But revalidate has no way to tell the VFS that the dentry has changed, other than to force another ->lookup() by returning false, which is at best wastefull and at worst not possible. This results in an -ENOENT return from the original path walk when in fact the mount succeeded. To resolve this we need to ensure that the same dentry is used in all calls to ->lookup() during the course of a mount request. This patch achieves that by adding the initial dentry to a look aside list and removes it at ->mkdir() or ->symlink() completion (or when the dentry is released), since these are the only create operations autofs4 supports.
