[PATCH 13/17] watch_queue: Implement mount topology and attribute change notifications [ver #5]

From: David Howells
Date: Wed Mar 18 2020 - 11:05:29 EST


Add a mount notification facility whereby notifications about changes in
mount topology and configuration can be received. Note that this only
covers vfsmount topology changes and not superblock events. A separate
facility will be added for that.

Every mount is given a change counter than counts the number of topological
rearrangements in which it is involved and the number of attribute changes
it undergoes. This allows notification loss to be dealt with. Later
patches will provide a way to quickly retrieve this value, along with
information about topology and parameters for the superblock.

Firstly, a watch queue needs to be created:

pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE);
ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, 256);

then a notification can be set up to report notifications via that queue:

struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
.nr_filters = 1,
.filters = {
[0] = {
.type = WATCH_TYPE_MOUNT_NOTIFY,
.subtype_filter[0] = UINT_MAX,
},
},
};
ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);
watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fds[1], 0x02);

In this case, it would let me monitor the mount topology subtree rooted at
"/" for events. Mount notifications propagate up the tree towards the
root, so a watch will catch all of the events happening in the subtree
rooted at the watch.

After setting the watch, records will be placed into the queue when, for
example, as superblock switches between read-write and read-only. Records
are of the following format:

struct mount_notification {
struct watch_notification watch;
__u32 triggered_on;
__u32 auxiliary_mount;
__u32 topology_changes;
__u32 attr_changes;
__u32 aux_topology_changes;
} *n;

Where:

n->watch.type will be WATCH_TYPE_MOUNT_NOTIFY.

n->watch.subtype will indicate the type of event, such as
NOTIFY_MOUNT_NEW_MOUNT.

n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH will indicate the length of the
record.

n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_ID will be the fifth argument to
watch_mount(), shifted.

n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IN_SUBTREE if true indicates that the
notifcation was generated in the mount subtree rooted at the watch,
and not actually in the watch itself.

n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IS_RECURSIVE if true indicates that
the notifcation was generated by an event (eg. SETATTR) that was
applied recursively. The notification is only generated for the
object that initially triggered it.

n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IS_NOW_RO will be used for
NOTIFY_MOUNT_READONLY, being set if the superblock becomes R/O, and
being cleared otherwise, and for NOTIFY_MOUNT_NEW_MOUNT, being set
if the new mount is a submount (e.g. an automount).

n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IS_SUBMOUNT if true indicates that the
NOTIFY_MOUNT_NEW_MOUNT notification is in response to a mount
performed by the kernel (e.g. an automount).

n->triggered_on indicates the ID of the mount to which the change
was accounted (e.g. the new parent of a new mount).

n->axiliary_mount indicates the ID of an additional mount that was
affected (e.g. a new mount itself) or 0.

n->topology_changes provides the value of the topology change
counter of the triggered-on mount at the conclusion of the
operarion.

n->attr_changes provides the value of the attribute change counter
of the triggered-on mount at the conclusion of the operarion.

n->aux_topology_changes provides the value of the topology change
counter of the auxiliary mount at the conclusion of the operation.

Note that it is permissible for event records to be of variable length -
or, at least, the length may be dependent on the subtype. Note also that
the queue can be shared between multiple notifications of various types.
