Subject: [PATCH 04/23] vfs: Introduce infrastructure for revoking a file

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...ssion.com>

Introduce the file_hotplug_lock to protect file->f_op, file->private,
file->f_path from revoke operations.

The file_hotplug_lock is used typically as:
error = -EIO;
if (!file_hotplug_read_trylock(file))
	goto out;
....
file_hotplug_read_unlock(file);

In 5 subsystems sysfs, proc, and sysctl, tty, and sound we have support for
modifing a file descriptor so that the underlying object can go away.
In looking at the problem of pci hotunplug it appears that we
potentially need that support for all file descriptors except ones
talking to files on filesystems.  Even for file descriptors referring
to files, support for file the underlying object going away is
interesting for implementing features like umount -f and sys_revoke.

The implementations in sysfs, proc and sysctl are all very similar and
are composed of several components.
- A reference count to track that the file operations are being used.
- An ability to flag the file as no longer being valid.
- An ability to wait until the file operations are no longer being used.

In addition for a complete solution we need:
- A reliable way the file structures that we need to revoke.
- To wait for but not tamper with ongoing file creation and cleanup.
- A guarantee that all with user space controlled duration are removed.

The file_hotplug_lock has a very unique implementation necessitated by
the need to have no performance impact on existing code.  Classic locking
primitives and reference counting cause pipeline stalls, except for rcu
which provides no ability to preventing reading a data structure while
it is being updated.

file_hotplug_lock keeps the overhead extremely low by dedicating a
small amount of space in the task_struct to store the set of files
the task is currently in the process of using.

The revoke algorithm is simple:
- Find a file on the file_list.
   If it is dying or being created come back later
 * Take a reference to the file, ensuring it does not get freed while the
   revoke code accesses it.
 * Block out new usages of fields guarded by file_hotplug_lock.
 * Kick the underlying implemenation to wake up functions that are potentially
   blocked indefinitely.
 * Wait until there are no tasks holding file_hotplug_read_lock
 * Release the file specific data.
 * Drop the file ref count.
- Repeat until the file list is empty.

The implication of this implementation is that all revoked files will
behave exactly the same way, except for policy controlled by flags in
fmode.  The expected behaivor of revoked is close succeeds all other
operations return -EIO.  Except for the read on ttys this matches the
historical bsd behavior.

Approriate exports are present so modular character devices can
use the file_list
