Lino Sanfilippo e2a29943e9 fsnotify: pass group to fsnotify_destroy_mark()
In fsnotify_destroy_mark() dont get the group from the passed mark anymore,
but pass the group itself as an additional parameter to the function.

Lino Sanfilippo 23e964c284 fsnotify: use reference counting for groups
Get a group ref for each mark that is added to the groups list and release that
ref when the mark is freed in fsnotify_put_mark().
We also use get a group reference for duplicated marks and for private event
data.
Now we dont free a group any more when the number of marks becomes 0 but when
the groups ref count does. Since this will only happen when all marks are removed
from a groups mark list, we dont have to set the groups number of marks to 1 at
group creation.

Beside clearing all marks in fsnotify_destroy_group() we do also flush the
groups event queue. This is since events may hold references to groups (due to
private event data) and we have to put those references first before we get a
chance to put the final ref, which will result in a call to
fsnotify_final_destroy_group().

Eric Paris d0de4dc584 inotify: fix double free/corruption of stuct user
On an error path in inotify_init1 a normal user can trigger a double
free of struct user.  This is a regression introduced by a2ae4cc9a1
("inotify: stop kernel memory leak on file creation failure").

We fix this by making sure that if a group exists the user reference is
dropped when the group is cleaned up.  We should not explictly drop the
reference on error and also drop the reference when the group is cleaned
up.

The new lifetime rules are that an inotify group lives from
inotify_new_group to the last fsnotify_put_group.  Since the struct user
and inotify_devs are directly tied to this lifetime they are only
changed/updated in those two locations.  We get rid of all special
casing of struct user or user->inotify_devs.

Linus Torvalds 2069601b3f Revert "fsnotify: store struct file not struct path"
This reverts commit 3bcf3860a4 (and the
accompanying commit c1e5c95402 "vfs/fsnotify: fsnotify_close can delay
the final work in fput" that was a horribly ugly hack to make it work at
all).

The 'struct file' approach not only causes that disgusting hack, it
somehow breaks pulseaudio, probably due to some other subtlety with
f_count handling.

Fix up various conflicts due to later fsnotify work.

Eric Paris 8c1934c8d7 inotify: allow users to request not to recieve events on unlinked children
An inotify watch on a directory will send events for children even if those
children have been unlinked.  This patch add a new inotify flag IN_EXCL_UNLINK
which allows a watch to specificy they don't care about unlinked children.
This should fix performance problems seen by tasks which add a watch to
/tmp and then are overrun with events when other processes are reading and
writing to unlinked files they created in /tmp.

Eric Paris 6e5f77b32e fsnotify: intoduce a notification merge argument
Each group can define their own notification (and secondary_q) merge
function.  Inotify does tail drop, fanotify does matching and drop which
can actually allocate a completely new event.  But for fanotify to properly
deal with permissions events it needs to know the new event which was
ultimately added to the notification queue.  This patch just implements a
void ** argument which is passed to the merge function.  fanotify can use
this field to pass the new event back to higher layers.

and into the inotify code.  This allows each use of fsnotify to provide

Eric Paris eef3a116be notify: unused event private race
inotify decides if private data it passed to get added to an event was
used by checking list_empty().  But it's possible that the event may
have been dequeued and the private event removed so it would look empty.

The fix is to use the return code from fsnotify_add_notify_event rather
than looking at the list.

Eric Paris 528da3e9e2 inotify: inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice
inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice for the same mark since it
is called directly in inotify_rm_watch and when the mark is being destroyed for
another reason.  As an example assume that the file being watched was just
deleted so inotify_destroy_mark_entry would get called from the path
fsnotify_inoderemove() -> fsnotify_destroy_marks_by_inode() ->
fsnotify_destroy_mark_entry() -> inotify_destroy_mark_entry().  If this
happened at the same time as userspace tried to remove a watch via
inotify_rm_watch we could attempt to remove the mark from the idr twice and
could thus double dec the ref cnt and potentially could be in a use after
free/double free situation.  The fix is to have inotify_rm_watch use the
generic recursive safe fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry() so we are sure the
inotify_destroy_mark_entry() function can only be called one.

This patch also renames the function to inotify_ingored_remove_idr() so it is
clear what is actually going on in the function.

Hopefully this fixes:
