[PATCH 2/5] FUSE: implement ioctl support

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Nov 20 2008 - 09:13:37 EST


Generic ioctl support is tricky to implement because only the ioctl
implementation itself knows which memory regions need to be read
and/or written. To support this, fuse client can request retry of
ioctl specifying memory regions to read and write. Deep copying
(nested pointers) can be implemented by retrying multiple times
resolving one depth of dereference at a time.

For security and cleanliness considerations, ioctl implementation has
restricted mode where the kernel determines data transfer directions
and sizes using the _IOC_*() macros on the ioctl command. In this
mode, retry is not allowed.

For all FUSE servers, restricted mode is enforced. Unrestricted ioctl
will be used by CUSE.

Plese read the comment on top of fs/fuse/file.c::fuse_file_do_ioctl()
for more information.

+ * For ioctls, there is no generic way to determine how much memory
+ * needs to be read and/or written. Furthermore, ioctls are allowed
+ * to dereference the passed pointer, so the parameter requires deep
+ * copying but FUSE has no idea whatsoever about what to copy in or
+ * out.
+ *
+ * This is solved by allowing FUSE server to retry ioctl with
+ * necessary in/out iovecs. Let's assume the ioctl implementation
+ * needs to read in the following structure.
+ *
+ * struct a {
+ * char *buf;
+ * size_t buflen;
+ * }
+ *
+ * On the first callout to FUSE server, inarg->in_size and
+ * inarg->out_size will be NULL; then, the server completes the ioctl
+ * with FUSE_IOCTL_RETRY set in out->flags, out->in_iovs set to 1 and
+ * the actual iov array to
+ *
+ * { { .iov_base = inarg.arg, .iov_len = sizeof(struct a) } }
+ *
+ * which tells FUSE to copy in the requested area and retry the ioctl.
+ * On the second round, the server has access to the structure and
+ * from that it can tell what to look for next, so on the invocation,
+ * it sets FUSE_IOCTL_RETRY, out->in_iovs to 2 and iov array to
+ *
+ * { { .iov_base = inarg.arg, .iov_len = sizeof(struct a) },
+ * { .iov_base = a.buf, .iov_len = a.buflen } }
+ *
+ * FUSE will copy both struct a and the pointed buffer from the
+ * process doing the ioctl and retry ioctl with both struct a and the
+ * buffer.
+ *
+ * This time, FUSE server has everything it needs and completes ioctl
+ * without FUSE_IOCTL_RETRY which finishes the ioctl call.
+ *
+ * Copying data out works the same way.
+ *
+ * Note that if FUSE_IOCTL_UNRESTRICTED is clear, the kernel
+ * automatically initializes in and out iovs by decoding @cmd with
+ * _IOC_* macros and the server is not allowed to request RETRY. This
+ * limits ioctl data transfers to well-formed ioctls and is the forced
+ * behavior for all FUSE servers.
