2009-12-16autofs4: always use lookup for lookupIan Kent
We need to be able to cope with the directory mutex being held during ->d_revalidate() in some cases, but not all cases, and not necessarily by us. Because we need to release the mutex when we call back to the daemon to do perform a mount we must be sure that it is us who holds the mutex so we must redirect mount requests to ->lookup() if the mutex is held.

2009-12-16autofs4: eliminate d_unhashed in path walk checksIan Kent
We unhash the dentry (in a subsequent patch) in ->d_revalidate() in order to send mount requests to ->lookup(). But then we can not rely on d_unhased() to give reliable results because it may be called at any time by any code path. The d_unhashed() function is used by __simple_empty() in the path walking callbacks but autofs mount point dentrys should have no directories at all so a list_empty() on d_subdirs should be (and is) sufficient.

2009-06-09autofs4: remove hashed check in validate_wait()Ian Kent
The recent ->lookup() deadlock correction required the directory inode mutex to be dropped while waiting for expire completion. We were concerned about side effects from this change and one has been identified. I saw several error messages. They cause autofs to become quite confused and don't really point to the actual problem. Things like: handle_packet_missing_direct:1376: can't find map entry for (43,1827932) which is usually totally fatal (although in this case it wouldn't be except that I treat is as such because it normally is). do_mount_direct: direct trigger not valid or already mounted /test/nested/g3c/s1/ss1 which is recoverable, however if this problem is at play it can cause autofs to become quite confused as to the dependencies in the mount tree because mount triggers end up mounted multiple times. It's hard to accurately check for this over mounting case and automount shouldn't need to if the kernel module is doing its job. There was one other message, similar in consequence of this last one but I can't locate a log example just now. When checking if a mount has already completed prior to adding a new mount request to the wait queue we check if the dentry is hashed and, if so, if it is a mount point. But, if a mount successfully completed while we slept on the wait queue mutex the dentry must exist for the mount to have completed so the test is not really needed. Mounts can also be done on top of a global root dentry, so for the above case, where a mount request completes and the wait queue entry has already been removed, the hashed test returning false can cause an incorrect callback to the daemon. Also, d_mountpoint() is not sufficient to check if a mount has completed for the multi-mount case when we don't have a real mount at the base of the tree.

2009-04-01autofs4: fix lookup deadlockIan Kent
A deadlock can occur when user space uses a signal (autofs version 4 uses SIGCHLD for this) to effect expire completion. The order of events is: Expire process completes, but before being able to send SIGCHLD to it's parent ... Another process walks onto a different mount point and drops the directory inode semaphore prior to sending the request to the daemon as it must ... A third process does an lstat on on the expired mount point causing it to wait on expire completion (unfortunately) holding the directory semaphore. The mount request then arrives at the daemon which does an lstat and, deadlock. For some time I was concerned about releasing the directory semaphore around the expire wait in autofs4_lookup as well as for the mount call back. I finally realized that the last round of changes in this function made the expiring dentry and the lookup dentry separate and distinct so the check and possible wait can be done anywhere prior to the mount call back. This patch moves the check to just before the mount call back and inside the directory inode mutex release.

2009-01-06autofs4: make autofs type usage explicitIan Kent
- the type assigned at mount when no type is given is changed from 0 to AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT. This was done because 0 and AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT were being treated implicitly as the same type. - previously, an offset mount had it's type set to AUTOFS_TYPE_DIRECT|AUTOFS_TYPE_OFFSET but the mount control re-implementation needs to be able distinguish all three types. So this was changed to make the type setting explicit. - a type AUTOFS_TYPE_ANY was added for use by the re-implementation when checking if a given path is a mountpoint. It's not really a type as we use this to ask if a given path is a mountpoint in the autofs_dev_ioctl_ismountpoint() function. - functions to set and test the autofs mount types have been added to improve readability and make the type usage explicit. - the mount type is used from user space for the mount control re-implementtion so, for consistency, all the definitions have been moved to the user space include file include/linux/auto_fs4.h.

2008-10-16autofs4: add miscellaneous device for ioctlsIan Kent
Add a miscellaneous device to the autofs4 module for routing ioctls. This provides the ability to obtain an ioctl file handle for an autofs mount point that is possibly covered by another mount. The actual problem with autofs is that it can't reconnect to existing mounts. Immediately one things of just adding the ability to remount autofs file systems would solve it, but alas, that can't work. This is because autofs direct mounts and the implementation of "on demand mount and expire" of nested mount trees have the file system mounted on top of the mount trigger dentry. To resolve this a miscellaneous device node for routing ioctl commands to these mount points has been implemented in the autofs4 kernel module and a library added to autofs. This provides the ability to open a file descriptor for these over mounted autofs mount points. Please refer to Documentation/filesystems/autofs4-mount-control.txt for a discussion of the problem, implementation alternatives considered and a description of the interface.

2008-07-24autofs4: fix direct mount pending expire raceIan Kent
For direct and offset type mounts that are covered by another mount we cannot check the AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING flag during a path walk which leads to lookups walking into an expiring mount while it is being expired. For example, for the direct multi-mount map entry with a couple of offsets: /race/mm1 / <server1>:/<path1> /om1 <server2>:/<path2> /om2 <server1>:/<path3> an autofs trigger mount is mounted on /race/mm1 and when accessed it is over mounted and trigger mounts made for /race/mm1/om1 and /race/mm1/om2. So it isn't possible for path walks to see the expiring flag at all and they happily walk into the file system while it is expiring. When expiring these mounts follow_down() must stop at the autofs mount and all processes must block in the ->follow_link() method (except the daemon) until the expire is complete. This is done by decrementing the d_mounted field of the autofs trigger mount root dentry until the expire is completed. In ->follow_link() all processes wait on the expire and the mount following is completed for the daemon until the expire is complete.

What happens is that an expire is initiated by the daemon and a dentry is selected for expire but, since there is no lock held between the selection and setting of the expiring flag, a process may find the flag clear and continue walking into the mount tree at the same time the daemon attempts the expire it.

2008-07-24autofs4: fix pending checksIan Kent
There are two cases for which a dentry that has a pending mount request does not wait for completion. One is via autofs4_revalidate() and the other via autofs4_follow_link(). In revalidate, after the mount point directory is created, but before the mount is done, the check in try_to_fill_dentry() can can fail to send the dentry to the wait queue since the dentry is positive and the lookup flags may contain only LOOKUP_FOLLOW. Although we don't trigger a mount for the LOOKUP_FOLLOW flag, if ther's one pending we might as well wait and use the mounted dentry for the lookup. In autofs4_follow_link() the dentry is not checked to see if it is pending so it may fail to call try_to_fill_dentry() and not wait for mount completion. A dentry that is pending must always be sent to the wait queue.

2008-07-24autofs4: indirect dentry must almost always be positiveIan Kent
We have been seeing mount requests comming to the automount daemon for keys of the form "<map key>/<non key directory>" which are lookups for invalid map keys. But we can check for this in the kernel module and return a fail immediately, without having to send a request to the daemon. It is possible to recognise these requests are invalid based on whether the request dentry is negative and its relation to the autofs file system root. For example, given the indirect multi-mount map entry: idm1 \ /mm1 <server>:/<path1> /mm2 <server>:/<path2> For a request to mount idm1, IS_ROOT((idm1)->d_parent) will be always be true and the dentry may be negative. But directories idm1/mm1 and idm1/mm2 will always be created as part of the mount request for idm1. So any mount request within idm1 itself must have a positive dentry otherwise the map key is invalid. In version 4 these multi-mount entries are all mounted and umounted as a single request and in version 5 the directories idm1/mm1 and idm1/mm2 are created and an autofs fs mounted on them to act as a mount trigger so the above is also true. This also holds true for the autofs version 4 pseudo direct mount feature. When this feature is used without the "--ghost" option automount(8) will create internal submounts as we go down the map key paths which are essentially normal indirect mounts for which the above holds. If the "--ghost" option is given the directories for map keys are created at daemon startup so valid map entries correspond to postive dentries in the autofs fs. autofs version 5 direct mount maps are similar except that the IS_ROOT check is not needed. This has been addressed in a previous patch tittled "autofs4 - detect invalid direct mount requests". For example, given the direct multi-mount map entry: /test/dm1 \ /mm1 <server>:/<path1> /mm2 <server>:/<path2> An autofs fs is mounted on /test/dm1 as a trigger mount and when a mount is triggered for /test/dm1, the multi-mount offset directories /test/dm1/mm1 and /test/dm1/mm2 are created and an autofs fs is mounted on them to act as mount triggers. So valid direct mount requests must always have a positive dentry if they correspond to a valid map entry.

2008-07-24autofs4: detect invalid direct mount requestsIan Kent
autofs v5 direct and offset mounts within an autofs filesystem are triggered by existing autofs triger mounts so the mount point dentry must be positive. If the mount point dentry is negative then the trigger doesn't exist so we can return fail immediately.

2008-07-24autofs4: fix waitq memory leakIan Kent
If an autofs mount becomes catatonic before autofs4_wait_release() is called the wait queue counter will not be decremented down to zero and the entry will never be freed. There are also races decrementing the wait counter in the wait release function. To deal with this the counter needs to be updated while holding the wait queue mutex and waiters need to be woken up unconditionally when the wait is removed from the queue to ensure we eventually free the wait.

2008-07-24autofs4: check kernel communication pipe is valid for writeIan Kent
It is possible for an autofs mount to become catatonic (and for the daemon communication pipe to become NULL) after a wait has been initiallized but before the request has been sent to the daemon. We need to check for this before sending the request packet.

2008-07-24autofs4: add missing kfreeIan Kent
It see that the patch tittled "autofs4 - fix pending mount race" is missing a change that I had recently made. It's missing a kfree for the case mutex_lock_interruptible() fails to aquire the wait queue mutex.
