[ Upstream commit 8217673d07256b22881127bf50dce874d0e51653 ]

For cloned connections cuse_channel_release() will be called more than
once, resulting in use after free.

Prevent device cloning for CUSE, which does not make sense at this point,
and highly unlikely to be used in real life.

get_user_ns() is done twice (once in virtio_fs_get_tree() and once in
fuse_conn_init()), resulting in a reference leak.

Also looks better to use fsc-&gt;user_ns (which *should* be the
current_user_ns() at this point).

<title>fuse: invalidate attrs when page writeback completes</title>

[ Upstream commit 3466958beb31a8e9d3a1441a34228ed088b84f3e ]

In fuse when a direct/write-through write happens we invalidate attrs
because that might have updated mtime/ctime on server and cached
mtime/ctime will be stale.

What about page writeback path.  Looks like we don't invalidate attrs
there.  To be consistent, invalidate attrs in writeback path as well.  Only
exception is when writeback_cache is enabled.  In that case we strust local
mtime/ctime and there is no need to invalidate attrs.

Recently users started experiencing failure of xfstests generic/080,
geneirc/215 and generic/614 on virtiofs.  This happened only newer "stat"
utility and not older one.  This patch fixes the issue.

So what's the root cause of the issue.  Here is detailed explanation.

generic/080 test does mmap write to a file, closes the file and then checks
if mtime has been updated or not.  When file is closed, it leads to
flushing of dirty pages (and that should update mtime/ctime on server).
But we did not explicitly invalidate attrs after writeback finished.  Still
generic/080 passed so far and reason being that we invalidated atime in
fuse_readpages_end().  This is called in fuse_readahead() path and always
seems to trigger before mmaped write.

So after mmaped write when lstat() is called, it sees that atleast one of
the fields being asked for is invalid (atime) and that results in
generating GETATTR to server and mtime/ctime also get updated and test
passes.

But newer /usr/bin/stat seems to have moved to using statx() syscall now
(instead of using lstat()).  And statx() allows it to query only ctime or
mtime (and not rest of the basic stat fields).  That means when querying
for mtime, fuse_update_get_attr() sees that mtime is not invalid (only
atime is invalid).  So it does not generate a new GETATTR and fill stat
with cached mtime/ctime.  And that means updated mtime is not seen by
xfstest and tests start failing.

Invalidating attrs after writeback completion should solve this problem in
a generic manner.

[ Upstream commit 6076f5f341e612152879bfda99f0b76c1953bf0b ]

With commit f8425c939663 ("fuse: 32-bit user space ioctl compat for fuse
device") the matching constraints for the FUSE_DEV_IOC_CLONE ioctl command
are relaxed, limited to the testing of command type and number.  As Arnd
noticed, this is wrong as it wouldn't ensure the correctness of the data
size or direction for the received FUSE device ioctl.

Fix by bringing back the comparison of the ioctl received by the FUSE
device to the originally generated FUSE_DEV_IOC_CLONE.

<title>fuse: fix write deadlock</title>

commit 4f06dd92b5d0a6f8eec6a34b8d6ef3e1f4ac1e10 upstream.

There are two modes for write(2) and friends in fuse:

a) write through (update page cache, send sync WRITE request to userspace)

b) buffered write (update page cache, async writeout later)

The write through method kept all the page cache pages locked that were
used for the request.  Keeping more than one page locked is deadlock prone
and Qian Cai demonstrated this with trinity fuzzing.

The reason for keeping the pages locked is that concurrent mapped reads
shouldn't try to pull possibly stale data into the page cache.

For full page writes, the easy way to fix this is to make the cached page
be the authoritative source by marking the page PG_uptodate immediately.
After this the page can be safely unlocked, since mapped/cached reads will
take the written data from the cache.

Concurrent mapped writes will now cause data in the original WRITE request
to be updated; this however doesn't cause any data inconsistency and this
scenario should be exceedingly rare anyway.

If the WRITE request returns with an error in the above case, currently the
page is not marked uptodate; this means that a concurrent read will always
read consistent data.  After this patch the page is uptodate between
writing to the cache and receiving the error: there's window where a cached
read will read the wrong data.  While theoretically this could be a
regression, it is unlikely to be one in practice, since this is normal for
buffered writes.

In case of a partial page write to an already uptodate page the locking is
also unnecessary, with the above caveats.

Partial write of a not uptodate page still needs to be handled.  One way
would be to read the complete page before doing the write.  This is not
possible, since it might break filesystems that don't expect any READ
requests when the file was opened O_WRONLY.

The other solution is to serialize the synchronous write with reads from
the partial pages.  The easiest way to do this is to keep the partial pages
locked.  The problem is that a write() may involve two such pages (one head
and one tail).  This patch fixes it by only locking the partial tail page.
If there's a partial head page as well, then split that off as a separate
WRITE request.

commit c79c5e0178922a9e092ec8fed026750f39dcaef4 upstream.

When accidentally passing twice the same tag to qemu, kmemleak ended up
reporting a memory leak in virtiofs.  Also, looking at the log I saw the
following error (that's when I realised the duplicated tag):

  virtiofs: probe of virtio5 failed with error -17

Here's the kmemleak log for reference:

With a 64-bit kernel build the FUSE device cannot handle ioctl requests
coming from 32-bit user space.  This is due to the ioctl command
translation that generates different command identifiers that thus cannot
be used for direct comparisons without proper manipulation.

Explicitly extract type and number from the ioctl command to enable 32-bit
user space compatibility on 64-bit kernel builds.

<title>virtiofs: Fail dax mount if device does not support it</title>

Right now "mount -t virtiofs -o dax myfs /mnt/virtiofs" succeeds even
if filesystem deivce does not have a cache window and hence DAX can't
be supported.

This gives a false sense to user that they are using DAX with virtiofs
but fact of the matter is that they are not.

Fix this by returning error if dax can't be supported and user has asked
for it.

Commit 5d069dbe8aaf ("fuse: fix bad inode") replaced make_bad_inode()
in fuse_iget() with a private implementation fuse_make_bad().

The private implementation fails to remove the bad inode from inode
cache, so the retry loop with iget5_locked() finds the same bad inode
and marks it bad forever.

<title>mm/filemap: remove unused parameter and change to void type for replace_page_cache_page()</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 74d609585d8b ("page cache: Add and replace pages using the
XArray") was merged, the replace_page_cache_page() can not fail and always
return 0, we can remove the redundant return value and void it.  Moreover
remove the unused gfp_mask.
