[PATCH v2] locks: eliminate false positive conflicts for write lease

[PATCH v2] locks: eliminate false positive conflicts for write lease

[Amir Goldstein]

check_conflicting_open() is checking for existing fd's open for read or
for write before allowing to take a write lease.  The check that was
implemented using i_count and d_count is an approximation that has
several false positives.  For example, overlayfs since v4.19, takes an
extra reference on the dentry; An open with O_PATH takes a reference on
the dentry although the file cannot be read nor written.

Change the implementation to use i_readcount and i_writecount to
eliminate the false positive conflicts and allow a write lease to be
taken on an overlayfs file.

The change of behavior with existing fd's open with O_PATH is symmetric
w.r.t. current behavior of lease breakers - an open with O_PATH currently
does not break a write lease.

This increases the size of struct inode by 4 bytes on 32bit archs when
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING is defined and CONFIG_IMA was not already
defined.

Miklos, Jeff and Bruce,

This patch fixes a v4.19 overlayfs regression with taking write
leases. It also provides correct semantics w.r.t RDONLY open counter
that Bruce also needed for nfsd.

Since this is locks code that fixes an overlayfs regression which
is also needed for nfsd, it could go via either of your trees.
I didn't want to pick sides, so first one to grab the patch wins ;-)

I verified the changes using modified LTP F_SETLEASE tests [1],
which I ran over xfs and overlayfs.

Thanks,
Amir.

Changes since v1:
- Drop patch to fold i_readcount into i_count
- Make i_readcount depend on CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING

Re: [PATCH v2] locks: eliminate false positive conflicts for write lease

[J . Bruce Fields]

How do opens for execute work?  I guess they create a struct file with
FMODE_EXEC and FMODE_RDONLY set and they decrement i_writecount.  Do
they also increment i_readcount?  Reading do_open_execat and alloc_file,
looks like it does, so, good, they should conflict with write leases,
which sounds right.

Looks good to me.--b.

nit: you already checked for FMODE_WRITE and you know that it's not set
here, so this is equivalent to:

    else if (filp->f_mode & FMODE_READ)

Looks good to me. Aside from the minor nit above:

    Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>

I have one file locking patch queued up for v5.3 so far, but nothing for
v5.2. Miklos or Bruce, if either of you have anything to send to Linus
for v5.2 would you mind taking this one too?

If not I can queue it up and get it to him after letting it soak in
linux-next for a bit.

Right... I guess you or Miklos could fix this up on commit.

I could take it.  I've modified it as below.

I'm very happy with the patch, but not so much with the idea of 5.2 and
stable.

It seems like a subtle change with some possibility of unintended side
effects.  (E.g. I don't think this is true any more, but my memory is
that for a long time the only thing stopping nfsd from giving out
(probably broken) write delegations was an extra reference that it held
during processing.) And if the overlayfs bug's been there since 4.19,
then waiting a little longer seems OK?

Right, but then why this:

It's basically a no-op, as you say.  And it doesn't make any sense
logically, since denying writes *should* deny write leases as well...

Yes.  I feel like the negative writecount case is a little nonobvious,
so maybe replace that by a comment, something like this?:

I'm fine with targeting 5.3 and I'm fine with all suggested changes
and adding some of my own. At this point we no longer need wcount
variable and code becomes more readable without it.
See attached patch (also tested).

Thanks,
Amir.

Subject: [PATCH v3] locks: eliminate false positive conflicts for write lease

check_conflicting_open() is checking for existing fd's open for read or
for write before allowing to take a write lease.  The check that was
implemented using i_count and d_count is an approximation that has
several false positives.  For example, overlayfs since v4.19, takes an
extra reference on the dentry; An open with O_PATH takes a reference on
the dentry although the file cannot be read nor written.

Change the implementation to use i_readcount and i_writecount to
eliminate the false positive conflicts and allow a write lease to be
taken on an overlayfs file.

The change of behavior with existing fd's open with O_PATH is symmetric
w.r.t. current behavior of lease breakers - an open with O_PATH currently
does not break a write lease.

This increases the size of struct inode by 4 bytes on 32bit archs when
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING is defined and CONFIG_IMA was not already
defined.

Thanks Amir. In that case, I'll go ahead and pick this up for v5.3, and

While we are polishing the patch to perfection, could also get rid of
ret variable...
Not a must.

Thanks,
Amir.

Subject: [PATCH v4] locks: eliminate false positive conflicts for write lease

check_conflicting_open() is checking for existing fd's open for read or
for write before allowing to take a write lease.  The check that was
implemented using i_count and d_count is an approximation that has
several false positives.  For example, overlayfs since v4.19, takes an
extra reference on the dentry; An open with O_PATH takes a reference on
the dentry although the file cannot be read nor written.

Change the implementation to use i_readcount and i_writecount to
eliminate the false positive conflicts and allow a write lease to be
taken on an overlayfs file.

The change of behavior with existing fd's open with O_PATH is symmetric
w.r.t. current behavior of lease breakers - an open with O_PATH currently
does not break a write lease.

This increases the size of struct inode by 4 bytes on 32bit archs when
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING is defined and CONFIG_IMA was not already
defined.

Getting back to this now that the patch is on its way to Linus.
Bruce, I was fine with waiting to 5.3 and I also removed CC: stable,
but did you mean that patch is not appropriate for stable or just that
we'd better wait a bit and let it soak in master before forwarding it to stable?

Thanks,
Amir.

With NFS and SMB, oplocks/leases/delegations are optimizations and
you're never guaranteed to get one in the face of competing access.

stable-kernel-rules.rst says:

- It must fix a problem that causes a build error (but not for
things marked CONFIG_BROKEN), an oops, a hang, data corruption, a real
security issue, or some "oh, that's not good" issue.  In short,
something critical.

I'm not sure this clears that bar.
