[PATCH 0/2] io_uring: add mkdirat support

[PATCH 0/2] io_uring: add mkdirat support

[Dmitry Kadashev]

This adds mkdirat support to io_uring and is heavily based on recently
added renameat() / unlinkat() support.

The first patch is preparation with no functional changes, makes
do_mkdirat accept struct filename pointer rather than the user string.

The second one leverages that to implement mkdirat in io_uring.

Based on for-5.11/io_uring.

[PATCH 1/2] fs: make do_mkdirat() take struct filename

[Dmitry Kadashev]

Pass in the struct filename pointers instead of the user string, and
update the three callers to do the same. This is heavily based on
commit dbea8d345177 ("fs: make do_renameat2() take struct filename").

This behaves like do_unlinkat() and do_renameat2().

No.  This is going to be a source of confusion from hell.  If anything,
you want a variant of filename_create() that does not drop name on
success.  With filename_create() itself being an inlined wrapper
for it.

Hi Al,

I think I need more guidance here. First of all, I've based that code on
commit 7cdfa44227b0 ("vfs: Fix refcounting of filenames in fs_parser"), which
does exactly the same refcount bump in fs_parser.c for filename_lookup().  I'm
not saying it's a good excuse to introduce more code like that if that's a bad
code though.

What I _am_ saying is we probably want to make the approaches consistent (at
least eventually), which means we'd need the same "don't drop the name" variant
of filename_lookup? And given the fact filename_parentat (used from
filename_create) drops the name on error it looks like we'd need another copy of
it too? Do you think it's really worth it or maybe all of these functions will
make things more confusing? (from the looks of it right now the convention is
that the `struct filename` ownership is always transferred when it is passed as
an arg)

Also, do you have a good name for such functions that do not drop the name?

And, just for my education, can you explain why the reference counting for
struct filename exists if it's considered a bad practice to increase the
reference counter (assuming the cleanup code is correct)?

Thanks.

It is a bad code.  If you look at that function, you'll see that the entire
mess around put_f is rather hard to follow and reason about.  That's a function
with no users, and I'm not sure we want to keep it long-term.

"don't drop the name on success", similar to what filename_parentat() does.

No need.

The last one is the easiest to answer - we want to keep the imported strings
around for audit.  It's not so much a proper refcounting as it is "we might
want freeing delayed" implemented as refcount.

As for do_mkdirat(), you probably want semantics similar to do_unlinkat(), i.e.
have it consume the argument passed to it.  The main complication comes
from ESTALE retries; want -ESTALE from ->mkdir() itself to trigger "redo
filename_parentat() with LOOKUP_REVAL, then try the rest one more time".
For which you need to keep filename around.  OK, so you want a variant of
filename_create() that would _not_ consume the filename on success (i.e.
act as filename_parentat() itself does).  Which is trivial to implement -
just rename filename_create() to __filename_create() and remove one of
two putname() in there, leaving just the one in failure exits.  Then
filename_create() itself becomes simply

static inline struct dentry *filename_create(int dfd, struct filename *name,
                                struct path *path, unsigned int lookup_flags)
{
	struct dentry *res = __filename_create(dfd, name, path, lookup_flags);
	if (!IS_ERR(res))
		putname(name);
	return res;
}

and in your do_mkdirat() replacement use
	dentry = __filename_create(dfd, filename, &path, lookup_flags);
instead of
        dentry = user_path_create(dfd, pathname, &path, lookup_flags);
and add
	putname(filename);
in the very end.  All it takes...

BTW, regarding io_uring + audit interactions - just how is that supposed to
work if you offload any work that might lead to audit records (on permission
checks, etc.) to helper threads?

For people looking into these details.  Things have gotten much better
recently.

The big change is that io_uring helper threads are now proper
threads of the process that is using io_uring.  The io_uring helper
threads just happen to never execute any userspace code.

audit context is per-thread (as it has to be, obviously - multiple threads
can have overlapping syscalls), so getname()/putname() interplay with that
is still not obvious.  I agree that these threads have gotten better,
though.

But the reason for the put_f mess is the fact that the function accepts either a
string (which it resolves to a struct filename that it then owns) or a struct
filename (that it does not own), not the meddling with the refcount. I'm not
trying to argue that we should do the meddling though, I'm fine with the other
approach.

Yeah, I just was not sure about naming or whether you'd prefer for other
functions to be changed too. You've answered pretty much all my questions and
even more :)

Thanks a lot Al! I'll post v2 soon (since the audit thing you've discovered does
not affect this patch directly).

Hi Al Viro,

Ping. Jens mentioned before that this looks fine by him, but you or
someone from fsdevel should approve the namei.c part first.

Thanks,

Another ping.

Jens, you've mentioned the patch looks good to you, and with quite similar
changes (unlinkat, renameat) being sent for 5.11 is there anything that I can do
to help this to be accepted (not necessarily for 5.11 at this point)?

Since we're aiming for 5.12 at this point, let's just hold off a bit and
see if Al gets time to ack/review the VFS side of things. There's no
immediate rush.

It's on my TODO list, so we'll get there eventually.

I want to tentatively queue this up. Do you have the liburing support
and test case(s) for it as well that you can send?

I do, I've sent it in the past, here it is:
https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/20201116051005.1100302-1-dkadashev@gmail.com/

I need to (figure out the way to) fix the kernel / namei side after Al's
comments though.

I thought so, thanks. I'll queue it up once we have agreement on the
kernel side.

[PATCH 0/2] io_uring: add mkdirat support

[Dmitry Kadashev]

This adds mkdirat support to io_uring and is heavily based on recently
added renameat() / unlinkat() support.

The first patch is preparation with no functional changes, makes
do_mkdirat accept struct filename pointer rather than the user string.

The second one leverages that to implement mkdirat in io_uring.

Based on for-5.11/io_uring.

[PATCH 1/2] fs: make do_mkdirat() take struct filename

[Dmitry Kadashev]

Pass in the struct filename pointers instead of the user string, and
update the three callers to do the same. This is heavily based on
commit dbea8d345177 ("fs: make do_renameat2() take struct filename").

This behaves like do_unlinkat() and do_renameat2().
