2011-05-29eCryptfs: Return useful code from contains_ecryptfs_markerTyler Hicks1-16/+10
Instead of having the calling functions translate the true/false return code to either 0 or -EINVAL, have contains_ecryptfs_marker() return 0 or -EINVAL so that the calling functions can just reuse the return code. Also, rename the function to ecryptfs_validate_marker() to avoid callers mistakenly thinking that it returns true/false codes. Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2011-05-29eCryptfs: Fix new inode race conditionTyler Hicks5-28/+30
Only unlock and d_add() new inodes after the plaintext inode size has been read from the lower filesystem. This fixes a race condition that was sometimes seen during a multi-job kernel build in an eCryptfs mount. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36002 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reported-by: David <david@unsolicited.net> Tested-by: David <david@unsolicited.net>
2011-05-29eCryptfs: Cleanup inode initialization codeTyler Hicks2-68/+69
The eCryptfs inode get, initialization, and dentry interposition code has two separate paths. One is for when dentry interposition is needed after doing things like a mkdir in the lower filesystem and the other is needed after a lookup. Unlocking new inodes and doing a d_add() needs to happen at different times, depending on which type of dentry interposing is being done. This patch cleans up the inode get and initialization code paths and splits them up so that the locking and d_add() differences mentioned above can be handled appropriately in a later patch.

2011-05-29eCryptfs: Consolidate inode functions into inode.cTyler Hicks4-107/+91
These functions should live in inode.c since their focus is on inodes and they're primarily used by functions in inode.c. Also does a simple cleanup of ecryptfs_inode_test() and rolls ecryptfs_init_inode() into ecryptfs_inode_set().

2011-05-28Cache xattr security drop check for write v2Andi Kleen2-2/+12
Some recent benchmarking on btrfs showed that a major scaling bottleneck on large systems on btrfs is currently the xattr lookup on every write. Why xattr lookup on every write I hear you ask? write wants to drop suid and security related xattrs that could set o capabilities for executables. To do that it currently looks up security.capability on EVERY write (even for non executables) to decide whether to drop it or not. In btrfs this causes an additional tree walk, hitting some per file system locks and quite bad scalability. In a simple read workload on a 8S system I saw over 90% CPU time in spinlocks related to that. Chris Mason tells me this is also a problem in ext4, where it hits the global mbcache lock. This patch adds a simple per inode to avoid this problem. We only do the lookup once per file and then if there is no xattr cache the decision. All xattr changes clear the flag. I also used the same flag to avoid the suid check, although that one is pretty cheap. A file system can also set this flag when it creates the inode, if it has a cheap way to do so. This is done for some common file systems in followon patches. With this patch a major part of the lock contention disappears for btrfs. Some testing on smaller systems didn't show significant performance changes, but at least it helps the larger systems and is generally more efficient. v2: Rename is_sgid. add file system helper.

Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not. This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid tree interdependencies. Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.
