Miklos Szeredi c9e67d4837 fuse: fix retrieve length
In some cases fuse_retrieve() would return a short byte count if offset was
non-zero.  The data returned was correct, though.

Daniel Mack 381bf7cad9 fuse: mark variables uninitialized
gcc 4.6.3 complains about uninitialized variables in fs/fuse/control.c:

  CC      fs/fuse/control.o
fs/fuse/control.c: In function 'fuse_conn_congestion_threshold_write':
fs/fuse/control.c:165:29: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
fs/fuse/control.c: In function 'fuse_conn_max_background_write':
fs/fuse/control.c:128:23: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

fuse_conn_limit_write() will always return non-zero unless the &val
is modified, so the warning is misleading. Let the compiler know
about it by marking 'val' with 'uninitialized_var'.

Miklos Szeredi 8d39d801d6 cuse: kill connection on initialization error
Luca Risolia reported that a CUSE daemon will continue to run even if
initialization of the emulated device failes for some reason (e.g. the device
number is already registered by another driver).

This patch disconnects the fuse device on error, which will make the userspace
CUSE daemon exit, albeit without indication about what the problem was.

Miklos Szeredi bbd9979797 cuse: fix fuse_conn_kill()
fuse_conn_kill() removed fc->entry, called fuse_ctl_remove_conn() and
fuse_bdi_destroy().  None of which is appropriate for cuse cleanup.

The fuse_ctl_remove_conn() decrements the nlink on the control filesystem, which
is totally bogus.  The others are harmless but unnecessary.

So move these out from fuse_conn_kill() to fuse_put_super() where they belong.

Zach Brown fb6ccff667 fuse: verify all ioctl retry iov elements
Commit 7572777eef attempted to verify that
the total iovec from the client doesn't overflow iov_length() but it
only checked the first element.  The iovec could still overflow by
starting with a small element.  The obvious fix is to check all the
elements.

The overflow case doesn't look dangerous to the kernel as the copy is
limited by the length after the overflow.  This fix restores the
intention of returning an error instead of successfully copying less
than the iovec represented.

I found this by code inspection.  I built it but don't have a test case.
I'm cc:ing stable because the initial commit did as well.

Brian Foster a8894274a3 fuse: update attributes on aio_read
A fuse-based network filesystem might allow for the inode
and/or file data to change unexpectedly. A local client
that opens and repeatedly reads a file might never pick
up on such changes and indefinitely return stale data.

Always invoke fuse_update_attributes() in the read path
to cause an attr revalidation when the attributes expire.
This leads to a page cache invalidation if necessary and
ensures fuse issues new read requests to the fuse client.

The original logic (reval only on reads beyond EOF) is
preserved unless the client specifies FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA
on init.

Brian Foster eed2179efe fuse: invalidate inode mapping if mtime changes
We currently invalidate the inode address space mapping
if the file size changes unexpectedly. In the case of a
fuse network filesystem, a portion of a file could be
overwritten remotely without changing the file size.
Compare the old mtime as well to detect this condition
and invalidate the mapping if the file has been updated.

The original logic (to ignore changes in mtime) is
preserved unless the client specifies FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA
on init.

Josef Bacik c3b2da3148 fs: introduce inode operation ->update_time
Btrfs has to make sure we have space to allocate new blocks in order to modify
the inode, so updating time can fail.  We've gotten around this by having our
own file_update_time but this is kind of a pain, and Christoph has indicated he
would like to make xfs do something different with atime updates.  So introduce
->update_time, where we will deal with i_version an a/m/c time updates and
indicate which changes need to be made.  The normal version just does what it
has always done, updates the time and marks the inode dirty, and then
filesystems can choose to do something different.

I've gone through all of the users of file_update_time and made them check for
errors with the exception of the fault code since it's complicated and I wasn't
quite sure what to do there, also Jan is going to be pushing the file time
updates into page_mkwrite for those who have it so that should satisfy btrfs and
make it not a big deal to check the file_update_time() return code in the
generic fault path. Thanks,

Anand Avati 4273b793ec fuse: O_DIRECT support for files
Implement ->direct_IO() method in aops. The ->direct_IO() method combines
the existing fuse_direct_read/fuse_direct_write methods to implement
O_DIRECT functionality.

Reaching ->direct_IO() in the read path via generic_file_aio_read ensures
proper synchronization with page cache with its existing framework.

Reaching ->direct_IO() in the write path via fuse_file_aio_write is made
to come via generic_file_direct_write() which makes it play nice with
the page cache w.r.t other mmap pages etc.

On files marked 'direct_io' by the filesystem server, IO always follows
the fuse_direct_read/write path. There is no effect of fcntl(O_DIRECT)
and it always succeeds.

On files not marked with 'direct_io' by the filesystem server, the IO
path depends on O_DIRECT flag by the application. This can be passed
at the time of open() as well as via fcntl().

Note that asynchronous O_DIRECT iocb jobs are completed synchronously
always (this has been the case with FUSE even before this patch)

John Muir 451d0f5999 FUSE: Notifying the kernel of deletion.
Allows a FUSE file-system to tell the kernel when a file or directory is
deleted. If the specified dentry has the specified inode number, the kernel will
unhash it.

The current 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' does not cause the kernel to clean up
directories that are in use properly, and as a result the users of those
directories see incorrect semantics from the file-system. The error condition
seen when 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' is used to notify of a deleted directory is
avoided when 'fuse_notify_delete' is used instead.

The following scenario demonstrates the difference:
1. User A chdirs into 'testdir' and starts reading 'testfile'.
2. User B rm -rf 'testdir'.
3. User B creates 'testdir'.
4. User C chdirs into 'testdir'.

If you run the above within the same machine on any file-system (including fuse
file-systems), there is no problem: user C is able to chdir into the new
testdir. The old testdir is removed from the dentry tree, but still open by user
A.

If operations 2 and 3 are performed via the network such that the fuse
file-system uses one of the notify functions to tell the kernel that the nodes
are gone, then the following error occurs for user C while user A holds the
original directory open:

muirj@empacher:~> ls /test/testdir
ls: cannot access /test/testdir: No such file or directory

The issue here is that the kernel still has a dentry for testdir, and so it is
requesting the attributes for the old directory, while the file-system is
responding that the directory no longer exists.

If on the other hand, if the file-system can notify the kernel that the
directory is deleted using the new 'fuse_notify_delete' function, then the above
ls will find the new directory as expected.

Miklos Szeredi b18da0c56e fuse: support ioctl on directories
Multiplexing filesystems may want to support ioctls on the underlying
files and directores (e.g. FS_IOC_{GET,SET}FLAGS).

Ioctl support on directories was missing so add it now.
