Subject: [PATCH v2] namei: implemented RENAME_NEWER_MTIME flag for renameat2() conditional replace
Date: Fri,  1 Jul 2022 03:23:26 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220701092326.1845210-1-james@openvpn.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <a4ea9789-6126-e058-8f55-6dfc8a3f30c3@openvpn.net>

RENAME_NEWER_MTIME is a new userspace-visible flag for renameat2(), and
stands alongside existing flags such as RENAME_NOREPLACE, RENAME_EXCHANGE,
and RENAME_WHITEOUT.

RENAME_NEWER_MTIME is a conditional variation on RENAME_NOREPLACE, and
indicates that if the target of the rename exists, the rename or exchange
will only succeed if the source file is newer than the target (i.e. source
mtime > target mtime).  Otherwise, the rename will fail with -EEXIST
instead of replacing the target.  When the target doesn't exist,
RENAME_NEWER_MTIME does a plain rename like RENAME_NOREPLACE.

RENAME_NEWER_MTIME can also be combined with RENAME_EXCHANGE for
conditional exchange, where the exchange only occurs if source mtime >
target mtime.  Otherwise, the operation will fail with -EEXIST.

RENAME_NEWER_MTIME is very useful in distributed systems that mirror a
directory structure, or use a directory as a key/value store, and need to
guarantee that files will only be overwritten by newer files, and that all
updates are atomic.

RENAME_NEWER_MTIME is implemented in vfs_rename(), and we lock and deny
write access to both source and target inodes before comparing their
mtimes, to stabilize the comparison.

So one question to ask is could this functionality be implemented in
userspace without adding a new renameat2() flag?  I think you could
attempt it with iterative RENAME_EXCHANGE, but it's hackish, inefficient,
and not atomic, because races could cause temporary mtime backtracks.
How about using file locking?  Probably not, because the problem we want
to solve is maintaining file/directory atomicity for readers by creating
files out-of-directory, setting their mtime, and atomically moving them
into place.  The strategy to lock such an operation really requires more
complex locking methods than are generally exposed to userspace.  And if
you are using inotify on the directory to notify readers of changes, it
certainly makes sense to reduce unnecessary churn by preventing a move
operation based on the mtime check.

While some people might question the utility of adding features to
filesystems to make them more like databases, there is real value in the
performance, atomicity, consistent VFS interface, multi-thread safety, and
async-notify capabilities of modern filesystems that starts to blur the
line, and actually make filesystem-based key-value stores a win for many
applications.

Like RENAME_NOREPLACE, the RENAME_NEWER_MTIME implementation lives in
the VFS, however the individual fs implementations do strict flags
checking and will return -EINVAL for any flag they don't recognize.
At this time, I have enabled and tested RENAME_NEWER_MTIME on ext2, ext3,
ext4, xfs, btrfs, and tmpfs.

I did not notice a general self-test for renameat2() at the VFS
layer (outside of fs-specific tests), so I created one, though
at the moment it only exercises RENAME_NEWER_MTIME and RENAME_EXCHANGE.
The self-test is written to be portable to the Linux Test Project,
and the advantage of running it there is that it automatically runs
tests on multiple filesystems.  See comments at the beginning of
renameat2_tests.c for more info.

Build and run the self-test with:

  make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=renameat2 run_tests

Questions:

Q: Why use mtime and not ctime for timestamp comparison?

A: I think the "use a directory as a key/value store" use case
   cares about the modification time of the file content rather
   than metadata.  Also, the rename operation itself modifies
   ctime, making it less useful as a reference timestamp.
   In any event, this patch creates the infrastructure for
   conditional rename/exchange based on inode timestamp, so a
   subsequent patch to add RENAME_NEWER_CTIME would be a mostly
   trivial exercise.

Q: Why compare mtimes when some systems have poor system clock
   accuracy and resolution?

A: So in the "use a directory as a key/value store" use case
   in distributed systems, the file mtime is actually determined
   remotely by the file content creator and is set locally
   via futimens() rather than the local system clock.  So this gives
   you nanosecond-scale time resolution if the content creator
   supports it, even if the local system clock has less resolution.

Patch version history:

v2: Changed flag name from RENAME_NEWER to RENAME_NEWER_MTIME so
    as to disambiguate and make it clear that we are comparing
    mtime values.

    RENAME_NEWER_MTIME can now be combined with RENAME_EXCHANGE
    for conditional exchange, where exchange only occurs if
    source mtime > target mtime.

    Moved the mtime comparison logic into vfs_rename() to take
    advantage of existing {lock,unlock}_two_nondirectories critical
    section, and then further nest another critical section
    {deny,allow}_write_access (adapted to inodes) to stabilize the
    mtime, since our use case doesn't require renaming files that
    are open for write (we will return -ETXTBSY in this case).

    Did some refactoring of inline functions in linux/fs.h that
    manage inode->i_writecount, and added inode_deny_write_access2()
    and inode_allow_write_access2() functions.

    Extended the self-test (renameat2_tests.c):

    1. Verify that RENAME_NEWER_MTIME fails with ETXTBSY when
       one of the files is open for write.

    2. Test conditional exchange use case with combined flags
       RENAME_EXCHANGE|RENAME_NEWER_MTIME.

    3. The test .c file is now drop-in portable to the Linux Test
       Project where you can take advantage of the .all_filesystems = 1
       flag to automatically run tests on multiple filesystems.
