Add a flag ([EXT4|FS]_DAX_FL) to preserve FS_XFLAG_DAX in the ext4
inode.
Set the flag to be user visible and changeable. Set the flag to be
inherited. Allow applications to change the flag at any time except if
it conflicts with the set of mutually exclusive flags (Currently VERITY,
ENCRYPT, JOURNAL_DATA).
Furthermore, restrict setting any of the exclusive flags if DAX is set.
While conceptually possible, we do not allow setting EXT4_DAX_FL while
at the same time clearing exclusion flags (or vice versa) for 2 reasons:
1) The DAX flag does not take effect immediately which
introduces quite a bit of complexity
2) There is no clear use case for being this flexible
Finally, on regular files, flag the inode to not be cached to facilitate
changing S_DAX on the next creation of the inode.

Pull fs-verity support from Eric Biggers:
"fs-verity is a filesystem feature that provides Merkle tree based
hashing (similar to dm-verity) for individual readonly files, mainly
for the purpose of efficient authenticity verification.
This pull request includes:
(a) The fs/verity/ support layer and documentation.
(b) fs-verity support for ext4 and f2fs.
Compared to the original fs-verity patchset from last year, the UAPI
to enable fs-verity on a file has been greatly simplified. Lots of
other things were cleaned up too.
fs-verity is planned to be used by two different projects on Android;
most of the userspace code is in place already. Another userspace tool
("fsverity-utils"), and xfstests, are also available. e2fsprogs and
f2fs-tools already have fs-verity support. Other people have shown
interest in using fs-verity too.
I've tested this on ext4 and f2fs with xfstests, both the existing
tests and the new fs-verity tests. This has also been in linux-next
since July 30 with no reported issues except a couple minor ones I
found myself and folded in fixes for.

Add FS_VERITY_FL to the flags for FS_IOC_GETFLAGS, so that applications
can easily determine whether a file is a verity file at the same time as
they're checking other file flags. This flag will be gettable only;
FS_IOC_SETFLAGS won't allow setting it, since an ioctl must be used
instead to provide more parameters.
This flag matches the on-disk bit that was already allocated for ext4.

23d0127096cb ("fs/sync.c: make sync_file_range(2) use WB_SYNC_NONE
writeback") claims that sync_file_range(2) syscall was "created for
userspace to be able to issue background writeout and so waiting for
in-flight IO is undesirable there" and changes the writeback (back) to
WB_SYNC_NONE.
This claim is only partially true. It is true for users that use the flag
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE by itself, as does PostgreSQL, the user that was the
reason for changing to WB_SYNC_NONE writeback.
However, that claim is not true for users that use that flag combination
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_{WAIT_BEFORE|WRITE|_WAIT_AFTER}. Those users explicitly
requested to wait for in-flight IO as well as to writeback of dirty pages.
Re-brand that flag combination as SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE_AND_WAIT and use
WB_SYNC_ALL writeback to perform the full range sync request.

* tag 'fscrypt_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/fscrypt:
fscrypt: add Adiantum support
|
|
Add support for the Adiantum encryption mode to fscrypt. Adiantum is a
tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode with security provably
reducible to that of XChaCha12 and AES-256, subject to a security bound.
It's also a true wide-block mode, unlike XTS. See the paper
"Adiantum: length-preserving encryption for entry-level processors"
(https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/720.pdf) for more details. Also see
commit 059c2a4d8e16 ("crypto: adiantum - add Adiantum support").
On sufficiently long messages, Adiantum's bottlenecks are XChaCha12 and
the NH hash function. These algorithms are fast even on processors
without dedicated crypto instructions. Adiantum makes it feasible to
enable storage encryption on low-end mobile devices that lack AES
instructions; currently such devices are unencrypted. On ARM Cortex-A7,
on 4096-byte messages Adiantum encryption is about 4 times faster than
AES-256-XTS encryption; decryption is about 5 times faster.
In fscrypt, Adiantum is suitable for encrypting both file contents and
names. With filenames, it fixes a known weakness: when two filenames in
a directory share a common prefix of >= 16 bytes, with CTS-CBC their
encrypted filenames share a common prefix too, leaking information.
Adiantum does not have this problem.
Since Adiantum also accepts long tweaks (IVs), it's also safe to use the
master key directly for Adiantum encryption rather than deriving
per-file keys, provided that the per-file nonce is included in the IVs
and the master key isn't used for any other encryption mode. This
configuration saves memory and improves performance. A new fscrypt
policy flag is added to allow users to opt-in to this configuration.

fscrypt currently only supports AES encryption. However, many low-end
mobile devices have older CPUs that don't have AES instructions, e.g.
the ARMv8 Cryptography Extensions. Currently, user data on such devices
is not encrypted at rest because AES is too slow, even when the NEON
bit-sliced implementation of AES is used. Unfortunately, it is
infeasible to encrypt these devices at all when AES is the only option.
Therefore, this patch updates fscrypt to support the Speck block cipher,
which was recently added to the crypto API. The C implementation of
Speck is not especially fast, but Speck can be implemented very
efficiently with general-purpose vector instructions, e.g. ARM NEON.
For example, on an ARMv7 processor, we measured the NEON-accelerated
Speck128/256-XTS at 69 MB/s for both encryption and decryption, while
AES-256-XTS with the NEON bit-sliced implementation was only 22 MB/s
encryption and 19 MB/s decryption.
There are multiple variants of Speck. This patch only adds support for
Speck128/256, which is the variant with a 128-bit block size and 256-bit
key size -- the same as AES-256. This is believed to be the most secure
variant of Speck, and it's only about 6% slower than Speck128/128.
Speck64/128 would be at least 20% faster because it has 20% rounds, and
it can be even faster on CPUs that can't efficiently do the 64-bit
operations needed for Speck128. However, Speck64's 64-bit block size is
not preferred security-wise. ARM NEON also supports the needed 64-bit
operations even on 32-bit CPUs, resulting in Speck128 being fast enough
for our targeted use cases so far.
The chosen modes of operation are XTS for contents and CTS-CBC for
filenames. These are the same modes of operation that fscrypt defaults
to for AES. Note that as with the other fscrypt modes, Speck will not
be used unless userspace chooses to use it. Nor are any of the existing
modes (which are all AES-based) being removed, of course.
We intentionally don't make CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION select
CONFIG_CRYPTO_SPECK, so people will have to enable Speck support
themselves if they need it. This is because we shouldn't bloat the
FS_ENCRYPTION dependencies with every new cipher, especially ones that
aren't recommended for most users. Moreover, CRYPTO_SPECK is just the
generic implementation, which won't be fast enough for many users; in
practice, they'll need to enable CRYPTO_SPECK_NEON to get acceptable
performance.
More details about our choice of Speck can be found in our patches that
added Speck to the crypto API, and the follow-on discussion threads.
We're planning a publication that explains the choice in more detail.
But briefly, we can't use ChaCha20 as we previously proposed, since it
would be insecure to use a stream cipher in this context, with potential
IV reuse during writes on f2fs and/or on wear-leveling flash storage.
We also evaluated many other lightweight and/or ARX-based block ciphers
such as Chaskey-LTS, RC5, LEA, CHAM, Threefish, RC6, NOEKEON, SPARX, and
XTEA. However, all had disadvantages vs. Speck, such as insufficient
performance with NEON, much less published cryptanalysis, or an
insufficient security level. Various design choices in Speck make it
perform better with NEON than competing ciphers while still having a
security margin similar to AES, and in the case of Speck128 also the
same available security levels. Unfortunately, Speck does have some
political baggage attached -- it's an NSA designed cipher, and was
rejected from an ISO standard (though for context, as far as I know none
of the above-mentioned alternatives are ISO standards either).
Nevertheless, we believe it is a good solution to the problem from a
technical perspective.
Certain algorithms constructed from ChaCha or the ChaCha permutation,
such as MEM (Masked Even-Mansour) or HPolyC, may also meet our
performance requirements. However, these are new constructions that
need more time to receive the cryptographic review and acceptance needed
to be confident in their security. HPolyC hasn't been published yet,
and we are concerned that MEM makes stronger assumptions about the
underlying permutation than the ChaCha stream cipher does. In contrast,
the XTS mode of operation is relatively well accepted, and Speck has
over 70 cryptanalysis papers. Of course, these ChaCha-based algorithms
can still be added later if they become ready.
The best known attack on Speck128/256 is a differential cryptanalysis
attack on 25 of 34 rounds with 2^253 time complexity and 2^125 chosen
plaintexts, i.e. only marginally faster than brute force. There is no
known attack on the full 34 rounds.

This retains 256 chars as the maximum size through the interface, which
is the btrfs limit and AFAIK exceeds any other filesystem's maximum

This just copies the ioctl for now and leaves it in place for btrfs

common ioctl definition, but it may be sent after this is merged.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel

of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX

fscrypt provides facilities to use different encryption algorithms which
are selectable by userspace when setting the encryption policy. Currently,
only AES-256-XTS for file contents and AES-256-CBC-CTS for file names are
implemented. This is a clear case of kernel offers the mechanism and
userspace selects a policy. Similar to what dm-crypt and ecryptfs have.
This patch adds support for using AES-128-CBC for file contents and
AES-128-CBC-CTS for file name encryption. To mitigate watermarking
attacks, IVs are generated using the ESSIV algorithm. While AES-CBC is
actually slightly less secure than AES-XTS from a security point of view,
there is more widespread hardware support. Using AES-CBC gives us the
acceptable performance while still providing a moderate level of security
for persistent storage.
Especially low-powered embedded devices with crypto accelerators such as
CAAM or CESA often only support AES-CBC. Since using AES-CBC over AES-XTS
is basically thought of a last resort, we use AES-128-CBC over AES-256-CBC
since it has less encryption rounds and yields noticeable better
performance starting from a file size of just a few kB.

This commit exposes the necessary constants and structures for a
userspace program to pass filesystem encryption keys into the keyring.
The fscrypt_key structure was already part of the kernel ABI, this
change just makes it so programs no longer have to redeclare these
structures (like e4crypt in e2fsprogs currently does).
Note that we do not expose the other FS_*_KEY_SIZE constants as they are
not necessary. Only XTS is supported for contents_encryption_mode, so
currently FS_MAX_KEY_SIZE bytes of key material must always be passed to
the kernel.

To support unprivileged users mounting filesystems two permission
checks have to be performed: a test to see if the user allowed to
create a mount in the mount namespace, and a test to see if
the user is allowed to access the specified filesystem.
The automount case is special in that mounting the original filesystem
grants permission to mount the sub-filesystems, to any user who
happens to stumble across the their mountpoint and satisfies the
ordinary filesystem permission checks.
Attempting to handle the automount case by using override_creds
almost works. It preserves the idea that permission to mount
the original filesystem is permission to mount the sub-filesystem.
Unfortunately using override_creds messes up the filesystems
ordinary permission checks.
Solve this by being explicit that a mount is a submount by introducing
vfs_submount, and using it where appropriate.
vfs_submount uses a new mount internal mount flags MS_SUBMOUNT, to let
sget and friends know that a mount is a submount so they can take appropriate
action.
sget and sget_userns are modified to not perform any permission checks
on submounts.
follow_automount is modified to stop using override_creds as that
has proven problemantic.
do_mount is modified to always remove the new MS_SUBMOUNT flag so
that we know userspace will never by able to specify it.
autofs4 is modified to stop using current_real_cred that was put in
there to handle the previous version of submount permission checking.
cifs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to vfs_submount.
debugfs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to
trace_automount by adding a new parameter. To make this change easier
a new typedef debugfs_automount_t is introduced to capture the type of
the debugfs automount function.

Adds the new BLKREPORTZONE and BLKRESETZONE ioctls for respectively
obtaining the zone configuration of a zoned block device and resetting
the write pointer of sequential zones of a zoned block device.
The BLKREPORTZONE ioctl maps directly to a single call of the function
blkdev_report_zones. The zone information result is passed as an array
of struct blk_zone identical to the structure used internally for
processing the REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT operation. The BLKRESETZONE ioctl
maps to a single call of the blkdev_reset_zones function.

Pull XFS support for shared data extents from Dave Chinner:
"This is the second part of the XFS updates for this merge cycle. This
pullreq contains the new shared data extents feature for XFS.
Given the complexity and size of this change I am expecting - like the
addition of reverse mapping last cycle - that there will be some
follow-up bug fixes and cleanups around the -rc3 stage for issues that
I'm sure will show up once the code hits a wider userbase.
What it is:
At the most basic level we are simply adding shared data extents to
XFS - i.e. a single extent on disk can now have multiple owners. To do
this we have to add new on-disk features to both track the shared
extents and the number of times they've been shared. This is done by
the new "refcount" btree that sits in every allocation group. When we
share or unshare an extent, this tree gets updated.
Along with this new tree, the reverse mapping tree needs to be updated
to track each owner or a shared extent. This also needs to be updated
ever share/unshare operation. These interactions at extent allocation
and freeing time have complex ordering and recovery constraints, so
there's a significant amount of new intent-based transaction code to
ensure that operations are performed atomically from both the runtime
and integrity/crash recovery perspectives.
We also need to break sharing when writes hit a shared extent - this
is where the new copy-on-write implementation comes in. We allocate
new storage and copy the original data along with the overwrite data
into the new location. We only do this for data as we don't share
metadata at all - each inode has it's own metadata that tracks the
shared data extents, the extents undergoing CoW and it's own private
extents.
Of course, being XFS, nothing is simple - we use delayed allocation
for CoW similar to how we use it for normal writes. ENOSPC is a
significant issue here - we build on the reservation code added in
4.8-rc1 with the reverse mapping feature to ensure we don't get
spurious ENOSPC issues part way through a CoW operation. These
mechanisms also help minimise fragmentation due to repeated CoW
operations. To further reduce fragmentation overhead, we've also
introduced a CoW extent size hint, which indicates how large a region
we should allocate when we execute a CoW operation.
With all this functionality in place, we can hook up .copy_file_range,
.clone_file_range and .dedupe_file_range and we gain all the
capabilities of reflink and other vfs provided functionality that
enable manipulation to shared extents. We also added a fallocate mode
that explicitly unshares a range of a file, which we implemented as an
explicit CoW of all the shared extents in a file.
As such, it's a huge chunk of new functionality with new on-disk
format features and internal infrastructure. It warns at mount time as
an experimental feature and that it may eat data (as we do with all
new on-disk features until they stabilise). We have not released
userspace suport for it yet - userspace support currently requires
download from Darrick's xfsprogs repo and build from source, so the
access to this feature is really developer/tester only at this point.
Initial userspace support will be released at the same time the kernel
with this code in it is released.
The new code causes 5-6 new failures with xfstests - these aren't
serious functional failures but things the output of tests changing
slightly due to perturbations in layouts, space usage, etc. OTOH,
we've added 150+ new tests to xfstests that specifically exercise this
new functionality so it's got far better test coverage than any
functionality we've previously added to XFS.
Darrick has done a pretty amazing job getting us to this stage, and
special mention also needs to go to Christoph (review, testing,
improvements and bug fixes) and Brian (caught several intricate bugs
during review) for the effort they've also put in.

This patch allows flock, posix locks, ofd locks and leases to work
correctly on overlayfs.
Instead of using the underlying inode for storing lock context use the
overlay inode. This allows locks to be persistent across copy-up.
This is done by introducing locks_inode() helper and using it instead of
file_inode() to get the inode in locking code. For non-overlayfs the two
are equivalent, except for an extra pointer dereference in locks_inode().
Since lock operations are in "struct file_operations" we must also make
sure not to call underlying filesystem's lock operations. Introcude a
super block flag MS_NOREMOTELOCK to this effect.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this update was stabilized before the merge window and
appeared in -next. The "device dax" implementation was revised this
week in response to review feedback, and to address failures detected
by the recently expanded ndctl unit test suite.
Not included in this pull request are two dax topic branches (dax
error handling, and dax radix-tree locking). These topics were
deferred to get a few more days of -next integration testing, and to
coordinate a branch baseline with Ted and the ext4 tree. Vishal and
Ross will send the error handling and locking topics respectively in
the next few days.
This branch has received a positive build result from the kbuild robot
across 226 configs.
Summary:
- Device DAX for persistent memory: Device DAX is the device-centric
analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory
ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening
file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable.
Specifically this interface:
a) Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size
(pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.
b) Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what
fault scenarios are supported.
Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
targeted for exclusive allocations of performance/feature
differentiated memory ranges.
- Support for the HPE DSM (device specific method) command formats.
This enables management of these first generation devices until a
unified DSM specification materializes.
- Further ACPI 6.1 compliance with support for the common dimm
identifier format.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem"

"The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a
build success notification from the kbuild robot. The 'for-4.5/block-
dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block
device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented
with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks
integration.
There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and
export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized
fixups that we will handle incrementally.
Summary:
- Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that
originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a
block device. This initial implementation is limited to being
consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be
consulted when creating dax mappings.
- Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want
large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability
to dax-mmap a block device directly.
- Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all
io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access
while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior
is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be
overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line
option.

block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes"

Rather than just being able to turn DAX on and off via a mount
option, some applications may only want to enable DAX for certain
performance critical files in a filesystem.
This patch introduces a new inode flag to enable DAX in the v3 inode
di_flags2 field. It adds support for setting and clearing flags in
the di_flags2 field via the XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl, and sets the
S_DAX inode flag appropriately when it is seen.
When this flag is set on a directory, it acts as an "inherit flag".
That is, inodes created in the directory will automatically inherit
the on-disk inode DAX flag, enabling administrators to set up
directory heirarchies that automatically use DAX. Setting this flag
on an empty root directory will make the entire filesystem use DAX
by default.

The btrfs clone ioctls are now adopted by other file systems, with NFS
and CIFS already having support for them, and XFS being under active
development. To avoid growth of various slightly incompatible
implementations, add one to the VFS. Note that clones are different from
file copies in several ways:
- they are atomic vs other writers
- they support whole file clones
- they support 64-bit legth clones
- they do not allow partial success (aka short writes)
- clones are expected to be a fast metadata operation
Because of that it would be rather cumbersome to try to piggyback them on
top of the recent clone_file_range infrastructure. The converse isn't
true and the clone_file_range system call could try clone file range as
a first attempt to copy, something that further patches will enable.

Add a new mount option which enables a new "lazytime" mode. This mode
causes atime, mtime, and ctime updates to only be made to the
in-memory version of the inode. The on-disk times will only get
updated when (a) if the inode needs to be updated for some non-time
related change, (b) if userspace calls fsync(), syncfs() or sync(), or
(c) just before an undeleted inode is evicted from memory.
This is OK according to POSIX because there are no guarantees after a
crash unless userspace explicitly requests via a fsync(2) call.
For workloads which feature a large number of random write to a
preallocated file, the lazytime mount option significantly reduces
writes to the inode table. The repeated 4k writes to a single block
will result in undesirable stress on flash devices and SMR disk
drives. Even on conventional HDD's, the repeated writes to the inode
table block will trigger Adjacent Track Interference (ATI) remediation
latencies, which very negatively impact long tail latencies --- which
is a very big deal for web serving tiers (for example).
