Andreas Gruenbacher 2ff7cf7e06 gfs2: Call unlock_new_inode before d_instantiate
As Neil Brown describes in detail in the link referenced below, new
inodes must be unlocked before they can be instantiated.

An even better fix is to use d_instantiate_new(), which combines
d_instantiate() and unlock_new_inode().

Andreas Gruenbacher e411d74cc5 gfs2: fiemap page fault fix
In gfs2_fiemap(), we are calling iomap_fiemap() while holding the inode
glock.  This can lead to recursive glock taking if the fiemap buffer is
memory mapped to the same inode and accessing it triggers a page fault.

Fix by disabling page faults for iomap_fiemap() and faulting in the
buffer by hand if necessary.

Fixes xfstest generic/742.

Andreas Gruenbacher 11d763f0b0 gfs2: Retries missing in gfs2_{rename,exchange}
Fix a bug in gfs2's asynchronous glock handling for rename and exchange
operations.  The original async implementation from commit ad26967b9a
("gfs2: Use async glocks for rename") mentioned that retries were needed
but never implemented them, causing operations to fail with -ESTALE
instead of retrying on timeout.

Also makes the waiting interruptible.

In addition, the timeouts used were too high for situations in which
timing out is a rare but expected scenario.  Switch to shorter timeouts
with randomization and exponentional backoff.

Christoph HellwigandChristian Brauner 85c871a02b fs: add support for non-blocking timestamp updates
Currently file_update_time_flags unconditionally returns -EAGAIN if any
timestamp needs to be updated and IOCB_NOWAIT is passed.  This makes
non-blocking direct writes impossible on file systems with granular
enough timestamps.

Pass IOCB_NOWAIT to ->update_time and return -EAGAIN if it could block.

Christoph HellwigandChristian Brauner 761475268f fs: refactor ->update_time handling
Pass the type of update (atime vs c/mtime plus version) as an enum
instead of a set of flags that caused all kinds of confusion.
Because inode_update_timestamps now can't return a modified version
of those flags, return the I_DIRTY_* flags needed to persist the
update, which is what the main caller in generic_update_time wants
anyway, and which is suitable for the other callers that only want
to know if an update happened.

The whole update_time path keeps the flags argument, which will be used
to support non-blocking updates soon even if it is unused, and (the
slightly renamed) inode_update_time also gains the possibility to return
a negative errno to support this.

Andreas Gruenbacher 2c5f4a5347 gfs2: Prevent recursive memory reclaim
Function new_inode() returns a new inode with inode->i_mapping->gfp_mask
set to GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE.  This value includes the __GFP_FS flag, so
allocations in that address space can recurse into filesystem memory
reclaim.  We don't want that to happen because it can consume a
significant amount of stack memory.

Worse than that is that it can also deadlock: for example, in several
places, gfs2_unstuff_dinode() is called inside filesystem transactions.
This calls filemap_grab_folio(), which can allocate a new folio, which
can trigger memory reclaim.  If memory reclaim recurses into the
filesystem and starts another transaction, a deadlock will ensue.

To fix these kinds of problems, prevent memory reclaim from recursing
into filesystem code by making sure that the gfp_mask of inode address
spaces doesn't include __GFP_FS.

The "meta" and resource group address spaces were already using GFP_NOFS
as their gfp_mask (which doesn't include __GFP_FS).  The default value
of GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE is less restrictive than GFP_NOFS, though.  To
avoid being overly limiting, use the default value and only knock off
the __GFP_FS flag.  I'm not sure if this will actually make a
difference, but it also shouldn't hurt.

This patch is loosely based on commit ad22c7a043 ("xfs: prevent stack
overflows from page cache allocation").

Fixes xfstest generic/273.

Andreas Gruenbacher 2c63986dd3 gfs2: deallocate inodes in gfs2_create_inode
When creating and destroying inodes, we are relying on the inode hash
table to make sure that for a given inode number, only a single inode
will exist.  We then link that inode to its inode and iopen glock and
let those glocks point back at the inode.  However, when iget_failed()
is called, the inode is removed from the inode hash table before
gfs_evict_inode() is called, and uniqueness is no longer guaranteed.

Commit f1046a472b70 ("gfs2: gl_object races fix") was trying to work
around that problem by detaching the inode glock from the inode before
calling iget_failed(), but that broke the inode deallocation code in
gfs_evict_inode().

To fix that, deallocate partially created inodes in gfs2_create_inode()
instead of relying on gfs_evict_inode() for doing that.

This means that gfs2_evict_inode() and its helper functions will no
longer see partially created inodes, and so some simplifications are
possible there.

NeilBrownandChristian Brauner 88d5baf690 Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *
Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g.  on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns.  For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.

This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes.  Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.

This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races.  Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.

To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
  NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
  ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
  non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in

This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations.  Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.

Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:

- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
  the name to get inode information.  Races could result in this
  returning something different. Note that this lookup is
  non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid.  Placing the
  lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
  has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
  operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
  the dentry.  This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
  to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.

The recommendation to use
    d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice.  A planned future patch will
change this.
