Commit 9df085f3c9a2 ("ovl: relax requirement for non null uuid of lower
fs") relaxed the requirement for non null uuid with single lower layer to
allow enabling index and nfs_export features with single lower squashfs.
Fabian reported a regression in a setup when overlay re-uses an existing
upper layer and re-formats the lower squashfs image. Because squashfs
has no uuid, the origin xattr in upper layer are decoded from the new
lower layer where they may resolve to a wrong origin file and user may
get an ESTALE or EIO error on lookup.
To avoid the reported regression while still allowing the new features
with single lower squashfs, do not allow decoding origin with lower null
uuid unless user opted-in to one of the new features that require
following the lower inode of non-dir upper (index, xino, metacopy).

Mounting with nfs_export=on, xfstests overlay/031 triggers a kernel panic
since v5.8-rc1 overlayfs updates.
overlayfs: orphan index entry (index/00fb1..., ftype=4000, nlink=2)
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030
RIP: 0010:ovl_cleanup_and_whiteout+0x28/0x220 [overlay]
Bisect point at commit c21c839b8448 ("ovl: whiteout inode sharing")
Minimal reproducer:
--------------------------------------------------
rm -rf l u w m
mkdir -p l u w m
mkdir -p l/testdir
touch l/testdir/testfile
mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=l,upperdir=u,workdir=w,nfs_export=on overlay m
echo 1 > m/testdir/testfile
umount m
rm -rf u/testdir
mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=l,upperdir=u,workdir=w,nfs_export=on overlay m
umount m
--------------------------------------------------
When mount with nfs_export=on, and fail to verify an orphan index, we're
cleaning this index from indexdir by calling ovl_cleanup_and_whiteout().
This dereferences ofs->workdir, that was earlier set to NULL.
The design was that ovl->workdir will point at ovl->indexdir, but we are
assigning ofs->indexdir to ofs->workdir only after ovl_indexdir_cleanup().
There is no reason not to do it sooner, because once we get success from
ofs->indexdir = ovl_workdir_create(... there is no turning back.

Decoding a lower directory file handle to overlay path with cold
inode/dentry cache may go as follows:
1. Decode real lower file handle to lower dir path
2. Check if lower dir is indexed (was copied up)
3. If indexed, get the upper dir path from index
4. Lookup upper dir path in overlay
5. If overlay path found, verify that overlay lower is the lower dir
from step 1
On failure to verify step 5 above, user will get an ESTALE error and a
WARN_ON will be printed.
A mismatch in step 5 could be a result of lower directory that was renamed
while overlay was offline, after that lower directory has been copied up
and indexed.
This is a scripted reproducer based on xfstest overlay/052:
# Create lower subdir
create_dirs
create_test_files $lower/lowertestdir/subdir
mount_dirs
# Copy up lower dir and encode lower subdir file handle
touch $SCRATCH_MNT/lowertestdir
test_file_handles $SCRATCH_MNT/lowertestdir/subdir -p -o $tmp.fhandle
# Rename lower dir offline
unmount_dirs
mv $lower/lowertestdir $lower/lowertestdir.new/
mount_dirs
# Attempt to decode lower subdir file handle
test_file_handles $SCRATCH_MNT -p -i $tmp.fhandle
Since this WARN_ON() can be triggered by user we need to relax it.

Overlayfs is using clone_private_mount() to create internal mounts for
underlying layers. These are used for operations requiring a path, such as
dentry_open().
Since these private mounts are not in any namespace they are treated as
short term, "detached" mounts and mntput() involves taking the global
mount_lock, which can result in serious cacheline pingpong.
Make these private mounts longterm instead, which trade the penalty on
mntput() for a slightly longer shutdown time due to an added RCU grace
period when putting these mounts.
Introduce a new helper kern_unmount_many() that can take care of multiple
longterm mounts with a single RCU grace period.

In ovl_copy_xattr, if all the xattrs to be copied are overlayfs private
xattrs, the copy loop will terminate without assigning anything to the
error variable, thus returning an uninitialized value.
If ovl_copy_xattr is called from ovl_clear_empty, this uninitialized error
value is put into a pointer by ERR_PTR(), causing potential invalid memory
accesses down the line.
This commit initialize error with 0. This is the correct value because when
there's no xattr to copy, because all xattrs are private, ovl_copy_xattr
should succeed.

Check permission before opening a real file.
ovl_path_open() is used by readdir and copy-up routines.
ovl_permission() theoretically already checked copy up permissions, but it
doesn't hurt to re-do these checks during the actual copy-up.
For directory reading ovl_permission() only checks access to topmost
underlying layer. Readdir on a merged directory accesses layers below the
topmost one as well. Permission wasn't checked for these layers.
Note: modifying ovl_permission() to perform this check would be far more
complex and hence more bug prone. The result is less precise permissions
returned in access(2). If this turns out to be an issue, we can revisit
this bug.

The three instances of ovl_path_open() in overlayfs/readdir.c do three
different things:
- pass f_flags from overlay file
- pass O_RDONLY | O_DIRECTORY
- pass just O_RDONLY
The value of f_flags can be (other than O_RDONLY):
O_WRONLY - not possible for a directory
O_RDWR - not possible for a directory
O_CREAT - masked out by dentry_open()
O_EXCL - masked out by dentry_open()
O_NOCTTY - masked out by dentry_open()
O_TRUNC - masked out by dentry_open()
O_APPEND - no effect on directory ops
O_NDELAY - no effect on directory ops
O_NONBLOCK - no effect on directory ops
__O_SYNC - no effect on directory ops
O_DSYNC - no effect on directory ops
FASYNC - no effect on directory ops
O_DIRECT - no effect on directory ops
O_LARGEFILE - ?
O_DIRECTORY - only affects lookup
O_NOFOLLOW - only affects lookup
O_NOATIME - overlay sets this unconditionally in ovl_path_open()
O_CLOEXEC - only affects fd allocation
O_PATH - no effect on directory ops
__O_TMPFILE - not possible for a directory
Fon non-merge directories we use the underlying filesystem's iterate; in
this case honor O_LARGEFILE from the original file to make sure that open
doesn't get rejected.
For merge directories it's safe to pass O_LARGEFILE unconditionally since
userspace will only see the artificial offsets created by overlayfs.

Amir pointed me to metacopy test cases in unionmount-testsuite and I
decided to run "./run --ov=10 --meta" and it failed while running test
"rename-mass-5.py".
Problem is w.r.t absolute redirect traversal on intermediate metacopy
dentry. We do not store intermediate metacopy dentries and also skip
current loop/layer and move onto lookup in next layer. But at the end of
loop, we have logic to reset "poe" and layer index if currnently looked up
dentry has absolute redirect. We skip all that and that means lookup in
next layer will fail.
Following is simple test case to reproduce this.
- mkdir -p lower upper work merged lower/a lower/b
- touch lower/a/foo.txt
- mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work,metacopy=on none merged
# Following will create absolute redirect "/a/foo.txt" on upper/b/bar.txt.
- mv merged/a/foo.txt merged/b/bar.txt
# unmount overlay and use upper as lower layer (lower2) for next mount.
- umount merged
- mv upper lower2
- rm -rf work; mkdir -p upper work
- mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower2:lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work,metacopy=on none merged
# Force a metacopy copy-up
- chown bin:bin merged/b/bar.txt
# unmount overlay and use upper as lower layer (lower3) for next mount.
- umount merged
- mv upper lower3
- rm -rf work; mkdir -p upper work
- mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower3:lower2:lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work,metacopy=on none merged
# ls merged/b/bar.txt
ls: cannot access 'bar.txt': Input/output error
Intermediate lower layer (lower2) has metacopy dentry b/bar.txt with
absolute redirect "/a/foo.txt". We skipped redirect processing at the end
of loop which sets poe to roe and sets the appropriate next lower layer
index. And that means lookup failed in next layer.
Fix this by continuing the loop for any intermediate dentries. We still do
not save these at lower stack. With this fix applied unionmount-testsuite,
"./run --ov-10 --meta" now passes.

Currently ovl_get_inode() initializes OVL_UPPERDATA flag and for that it
has to call ovl_check_metacopy_xattr() and check if metacopy xattr is
present or not.
yangerkun reported sometimes underlying filesystem might return -EIO and in
that case error handling path does not cleanup properly leading to various
warnings.

One solution is to improve error handling and call iget_failed() if error
is encountered. Amir thinks that this path is little intricate and there
is not real need to check and initialize OVL_UPPERDATA in ovl_get_inode().
Instead caller of ovl_get_inode() can initialize this state. And this will
avoid double checking of metacopy xattr lookup in ovl_lookup() and
ovl_get_inode().
OVL_UPPERDATA is inode flag. So I was little concerned that initializing
it outside ovl_get_inode() might have some races. But this is one way
transition. That is once a file has been fully copied up, it can't go back
to metacopy file again. And that seems to help avoid races. So as of now
I can't see any races w.r.t OVL_UPPERDATA being set wrongly. So move
settingof OVL_UPPERDATA inside the callers of ovl_get_inode().
ovl_obtain_alias() already does it. So only two callers now left are
ovl_lookup() and ovl_instantiate().

Currently we use a variable "metacopy" which signifies that dentry could be
either uppermetacopy or lowermetacopy. Amir suggested that we can move
code around and use d.metacopy in such a way that we don't need
lowermetacopy and just can do away with uppermetacopy.
So this patch replaces "metacopy" with "uppermetacopy".
It also moves some code little higher to keep reading little simpler.

overlayfs can keep index of copied up files and directories and it seems to
serve two primary puroposes. For regular files, it avoids breaking lower
hardlinks over copy up. For directories it seems to be used for various
error checks.
During ovl_lookup(), we lookup for index using lower dentry in many a
cases. That lower dentry is called "origin" and following is a summary of
current logic.
If there is no upperdentry, always lookup for index using lower dentry.
For regular files it helps avoiding breaking hard links over copyup and for
directories it seems to be just error checks.
If there is an upperdentry, then there are 3 possible cases.
- For directories, lower dentry is found using two ways. One is regular
path based lookup in lower layers and second is using ORIGIN xattr on
upper dentry. First verify that path based lookup lower dentry matches
the one pointed by upper ORIGIN xattr. If yes, use this verified origin
for index lookup.
- For regular files (non-metacopy), there is no path based lookup in lower
layers as lookup stops once we find upper dentry. So there is no origin
verification. If there is ORIGIN xattr present on upper, use that to
lookup index otherwise don't.
- For regular metacopy files, again lower dentry is found using path based
lookup as well as ORIGIN xattr on upper. Path based lookup is continued
in this case to find lower data dentry for metacopy upper. So like
directories we only use verified origin. If ORIGIN xattr is not present
(Either because lower did not support file handles or because this is
hardlink copied up with index=off), then don't use path lookup based
lower dentry as origin. This is same as regular non-metacopy file case.

Overlayfs doesn't work well with the fanotify mechanism.
Fanotify first probes for the required buffer size for the file handle,
but overlayfs currently bails out without passing the size back.
That results in errors in the kernel log, such as:
[527944.485384] overlayfs: failed to encode file handle (/, err=-75, buflen=0, len=29, type=1)
[527944.485386] fanotify: failed to encode fid (fsid=ae521e68.a434d95f, type=255, bytes=0, err=-2)

If EMLINK is encountered when linking a shared whiteout, create a new one.
In case of any other error, disable sharing for this super block.

Since the stacking of regular file operations [1], the overlayfs edition of
write_iter() is called when writing regular files.
Since then, xattr lookup is needed on every write since file_remove_privs()
is called from ovl_write_iter(), which would become the performance
bottleneck when writing small chunks of data. In my test case,
file_remove_privs() would consume ~15% CPU when running fstime of unixbench
(the workload is repeadly writing 1 KB to the same file) [2].
Inherit the SB_NOSEC flag from upperdir. Since then xattr lookup would be
done only once on the first write. Unixbench fstime gets a ~20% performance
gain with this patch.

Stacked filesystems like overlayfs has no own writeback, but they have to
forward syncfs() requests to backend for keeping data integrity.
During global sync() each overlayfs instance calls method ->sync_fs() for
backend although it itself is in global list of superblocks too. As a
result one syscall sync() could write one superblock several times and send
multiple disk barriers.
This patch adds flag SB_I_SKIP_SYNC into sb->sb_iflags to avoid that.

With index=on, let index dir act as the work dir for copy up and cleanups.
This will help implementing whiteout inode sharing.
We still create the "work" dir on mount regardless of index=on and it is
used to test the features supported by upper fs. One reason is that before
the feature tests, we do not know if index could be enabled or not.
The reason we do not use "index" directory also as workdir with index=off
is because the existence of the "index" directory acts as a simple
persistent signal that index was enabled on this filesystem and tools may
want to use that signal.

Similar to the way that a conflict between metacopy=on,redirect_dir=off is
resolved, also resolve conflicts between nfs_export=on,index=off and
nfs_export=on,metacopy=on.
An explicit mount option wins over a default config value. Both explicit
mount options result in an error.
Without this change the xfstests group overlay/exportfs are skipped if
metacopy is enabled by default.

The "buflen" value comes from the user and there is a potential that it
could be zero. In do_handle_to_path() we know that "handle->handle_bytes"
is non-zero and we do:
handle_dwords = handle->handle_bytes >> 2;
So values 1-3 become zero. Then in ovl_fh_to_dentry() we do:
int len = fh_len << 2;
So now len is in the "0,4-128" range and a multiple of 4. But if
"buflen" is zero it will try to copy negative bytes when we do the
memcpy in ovl_fid_to_fh().
memcpy(&fh->fb, fid, buflen - OVL_FH_WIRE_OFFSET);
And that will lead to a crash. Thanks to Amir Goldstein for his help
with this patch.

As of now during open(), we don't pass bunch of flags to underlying
filesystem. O_TRUNC is one of these. Normally this is not a problem as VFS
calls ->setattr() with zero size and underlying filesystem sets file size
to 0.
But when overlayfs is running on top of virtiofs, it has an optimization
where it does not send setattr request to server if dectects that
truncation is part of open(O_TRUNC). It assumes that server already zeroed
file size as part of open(O_TRUNC).
fuse_do_setattr() {
if (attr->ia_valid & ATTR_OPEN) {
/*
* No need to send request to userspace, since actual
* truncation has already been done by OPEN. But still
* need to truncate page cache.
*/
}
}
IOW, fuse expects O_TRUNC to be passed to it as part of open flags.
But currently overlayfs does not pass O_TRUNC to underlying filesystem
hence fuse/virtiofs breaks. Setup overlayfs on top of virtiofs and
following does not zero the file size of a file is either upper only or has
already been copied up.
fd = open(foo.txt, O_TRUNC | O_WRONLY);
There are two ways to fix this. Either pass O_TRUNC to underlying
filesystem or clear ATTR_OPEN from attr->ia_valid so that fuse ends up
sending a SETATTR request to server. Miklos is concerned that O_TRUNC might
have side affects so it is better to clear ATTR_OPEN for now. Hence this
patch clears ATTR_OPEN from attr->ia_valid.
I found this problem while running unionmount-testsuite. With this patch,
unionmount-testsuite passes with overlayfs on top of virtiofs.

ovl_setattr() can be passed an attr which has ATTR_FILE set and
attr->ia_file is a file pointer to overlay file. This is done in
open(O_TRUNC) path.
We should either replace with attr->ia_file with underlying file object or
clear ATTR_FILE so that underlying filesystem does not end up using
overlayfs file object pointer.
There are no good use cases yet so for now clear ATTR_FILE. fuse seems to
be one user which can use this. But it can work even without this. So it
is not mandatory to pass ATTR_FILE to fuse.

So far, with xino=auto, we only enable xino if we know that all
underlying filesystem use 32bit inode numbers.
When users configure overlay with xino=auto, they already declare that
they are ready to handle 64bit inode number from overlay.
It is a very common case, that underlying filesystem uses 64bit ino,
but rarely or never uses the high inode number bits (e.g. tmpfs, xfs).
Leaving it for the users to declare high ino bits are unused with
xino=on is not a recipe for many users to enjoy the benefits of xino.
There appears to be very little reason not to enable xino when users
declare xino=auto even if we do not know how many bits underlying
filesystem uses for inode numbers.
In the worst case of xino bits overflow by real inode number, we
already fall back to the non-xino behavior - real inode number with
unique pseudo dev or to non persistent inode number and overlay st_dev
(for directories).
The only annoyance from auto enabling xino is that xino bits overflow
emits a warning to kmsg. Suppress those warnings unless users explicitly
asked for xino=on, suggesting that they expected high ino bits to be
unused by underlying filesystem.

When xino feature is enabled and a real directory inode number overflows
the lower xino bits, we cannot map this directory inode number to a unique
and persistent inode number and we fall back to the real inode st_ino and
overlay st_dev.
The real inode st_ino with high bits may collide with a lower inode number
on overlay st_dev that was mapped using xino.
To avoid possible collision with legitimate xino values, map a non
persistent inode number to a dedicated range in the xino address space.
The dedicated range is created by adding one more bit to the number of
reserved high xino bits. We could have added just one more fsid, but that
would have had the undesired effect of changing persistent overlay inode
numbers on kernel or require more complex xino mapping code.

There is no reason to deplete the system's global get_next_ino() pool for
overlay non-persistent inode numbers and there is no reason at all to
allocate non-persistent inode numbers for non-directories.
For non-directories, it is much better to leave i_ino the same as real
i_ino, to be consistent with st_ino/d_ino.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension
to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length
types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in
C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in
case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will
help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this
change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The situation is the same as for __d_obtain_alias() (which is what that
thing is parallel to) - if we find a preexisting alias, we want to grab it,
drop the inode and return the alias we'd found.
The only thing d_instantiate_anon() does compared to that is spurious
security_d_instiate() that has already been done to that dentry with exact
same arguments.

Overlayfs works sub-optimally with upper fs that has no xattr/d_type/
RENAME_WHITEOUT support. We should basically deprecate support for those
filesystems, but so far, we only issue a warning and don't fail the mount
for the sake of backward compat. Some features are already being disabled
with no xattr support.
For newly supported remote upper fs, we do not need to worry about backward
compatibility, so we can fail the mount if upper fs is a sub-optimal
filesystem.
This reduces the in-tree remote filesystems supported as upper to just
FUSE, for which the remote upper fs support was added.
