fs: add mount_setattr()

2021-01-24T13:42:45Z

This implements the missing mount_setattr() syscall. While the new mount api allows to change the properties of a superblock there is currently no way to change the properties of a mount or a mount tree using file descriptors which the new mount api is based on. In addition the old mount api has the restriction that mount options cannot be applied recursively. This hasn't changed since changing mount options on a per-mount basis was implemented in [1] and has been a frequent request not just for convenience but also for security reasons. The legacy mount syscall is unable to accommodate this behavior without introducing a whole new set of flags because MS_REC | MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND | MS_RDONLY | MS_NOEXEC | [...] only apply the mount option to the topmost mount. Changing MS_REC to apply to the whole mount tree would mean introducing a significant uapi change and would likely cause significant regressions. The new mount_setattr() syscall allows to recursively clear and set mount options in one shot. Multiple calls to change mount options requesting the same changes are idempotent: int mount_setattr(int dfd, const char *path, unsigned flags, struct mount_attr *uattr, size_t usize); Flags to modify path resolution behavior are specified in the @flags argument. Currently, AT_EMPTY_PATH, AT_RECURSIVE, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, and AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT are supported. If useful, additional lookup flags to restrict path resolution as introduced with openat2() might be supported in the future. The mount_setattr() syscall can be expected to grow over time and is designed with extensibility in mind. It follows the extensible syscall pattern we have used with other syscalls such as openat2(), clone3(), sched_{set,get}attr(), and others. The set of mount options is passed in the uapi struct mount_attr which currently has the following layout: struct mount_attr { __u64 attr_set; __u64 attr_clr; __u64 propagation; __u64 userns_fd; }; The @attr_set and @attr_clr members are used to clear and set mount options. This way a user can e.g. request that a set of flags is to be raised such as turning mounts readonly by raising MOUNT_ATTR_RDONLY in @attr_set while at the same time requesting that another set of flags is to be lowered such as removing noexec from a mount tree by specifying MOUNT_ATTR_NOEXEC in @attr_clr. Note, since the MOUNT_ATTR_ values are an enum starting from 0, not a bitmap, users wanting to transition to a different atime setting cannot simply specify the atime setting in @attr_set, but must also specify MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME in the @attr_clr field. So we ensure that MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME can't be partially set in @attr_clr and that @attr_set can't have any atime bits set if MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME isn't set in @attr_clr. The @propagation field lets callers specify the propagation type of a mount tree. Propagation is a single property that has four different settings and as such is not really a flag argument but an enum. Specifically, it would be unclear what setting and clearing propagation settings in combination would amount to. The legacy mount() syscall thus forbids the combination of multiple propagation settings too. The goal is to keep the semantics of mount propagation somewhat simple as they are overly complex as it is. The @userns_fd field lets user specify a user namespace whose idmapping becomes the idmapping of the mount. This is implemented and explained in detail in the next patch.

net: Introduce preferred busy-polling

2020-11-30T23:09:25Z

The existing busy-polling mode, enabled by the SO_BUSY_POLL socket option or system-wide using the /proc/sys/net/core/busy_read knob, is an opportunistic. That means that if the NAPI context is not scheduled, it will poll it. If, after busy-polling, the budget is exceeded the busy-polling logic will schedule the NAPI onto the regular softirq handling. One implication of the behavior above is that a busy/heavy loaded NAPI context will never enter/allow for busy-polling. Some applications prefer that most NAPI processing would be done by busy-polling. This series adds a new socket option, SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, that works in concert with the napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout knobs. The napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout knobs were introduced in commit 6f8b12d661d0 ("net: napi: add hard irqs deferral feature"), and allows for a user to defer interrupts to be enabled and instead schedule the NAPI context from a watchdog timer. When a user enables the SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, again with the other knobs enabled, and the NAPI context is being processed by a softirq, the softirq NAPI processing will exit early to allow the busy-polling to be performed. If the application stops performing busy-polling via a system call, the watchdog timer defined by gro_flush_timeout will timeout, and regular softirq handling will resume. In summary; Heavy traffic applications that prefer busy-polling over softirq processing should use this option. Example usage: $ echo 2 | sudo tee /sys/class/net/ens785f1/napi_defer_hard_irqs $ echo 200000 | sudo tee /sys/class/net/ens785f1/gro_flush_timeout Note that the timeout should be larger than the userspace processing window, otherwise the watchdog will timeout and fall back to regular softirq processing. Enable the SO_BUSY_POLL/SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL options on your socket.

signal: define the SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS bit in sa_flags

2020-11-23T16:31:06Z

Architectures that support address tagging, such as arm64, may want to expose fault address tag bits to the signal handler to help diagnose memory errors. However, these bits have not been previously set, and their presence may confuse unaware user applications. Therefore, introduce a SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS flag bit in sa_flags that a signal handler may use to explicitly request that the bits are set. The generic signal handler APIs expect to receive tagged addresses. Architectures may specify how to untag addresses in the case where SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS is clear by defining the arch_untagged_si_addr function. Signed-off-by: Peter Collingbourne Acked-by: "Eric W.

signal: define the SA_UNSUPPORTED bit in sa_flags

2020-11-23T16:31:06Z

Define a sa_flags bit, SA_UNSUPPORTED, which will never be supported in the uapi. The purpose of this flag bit is to allow userspace to distinguish an old kernel that does not clear unknown sa_flags bits from a kernel that supports every flag bit. In other words, if userspace does something like: act.sa_flags |= SA_UNSUPPORTED; sigaction(SIGSEGV, &act, 0); sigaction(SIGSEGV, 0, &oldact); and finds that SA_UNSUPPORTED remains set in oldact.sa_flags, it means that the kernel cannot be trusted to have cleared unknown flag bits from sa_flags, so no assumptions about flag bit support can be made.
