Subject: [PATCH] fs: fat: Make the volume label writable when mounted

The motivation for this change (probably) has its origin in a whishlist
for the kernel that popped up in 2011, see
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1319135973.1020.9.camel@mop/

Subsequently the "eudyptula programming challenge", see
http://eudyptula-challenge.org/ included the task of making a mounted FAT
filesystems' label writable. That's where it found its way to me in 2014.

During the following years I was asked not to publish this in order to help
the challenge be successful. Time has passed and I'm not asked to keep it
secret anymore.

As for the API, I'm sending the original implementation as an ioctl() and
the example program that I've occasionally used over the years. Based on the
previous discussions, it might be less controversal to create a debugfs
dir for the fs and make the label a file there. I'm happy for acceptable
ideas and all feedback:

We add

	#define VFAT_IOCTL_SET_LABEL _IOW('r', 0x14, __u32)

for users to assign a new FAT volume label while the fat volume
is mounted (it works on the mountpoint).

* A pointer to a string as it's attribute changes the label.
* A nullpointer prints the current label strings to the kernel log.
* An empty string clears the label to "NO NAME    ". (I at least found this
  in the FAT16 spec)

I simply dump a test app here for completeness:

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdint.h>
	#include <sys/ioctl.h>
	#include <fcntl.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <errno.h>
	#include <linux/msdos_fs.h>
	#include <string.h>
	#include <limits.h>

	#ifndef VFAT_IOCTL_SET_LABEL
	#define VFAT_IOCTL_SET_LABEL _IOW('r', 0x14, __u32)
	#endif

	int main(int argc, char **argv)
	{
		int fd;
		char path[LINE_MAX];
		char mylabel[MSDOS_NAME];
		char *label = mylabel;

		if (argc < 2 || argc > 3) {
			printf("Change label:\n   %s [MOUNTPOINT] [LABEL]\n", argv[0]);
			printf("Show label in kernel logs:\n   %s [MOUNTPOINT]\n\n", argv[0]);
			printf("Available filesystems and their mountpoints are:\n");
			printf("   df --output=source,fstype,target | grep -E 'msdos|fat'\n");
			return -EINVAL;
		}
		if (strlen(argv[1]) >= LINE_MAX) {
			printf("Path to mountpoint too long");
			return -EINVAL;
		}

		strcpy(path, argv[1]);
		if (argc == 3) {
			#pragma GCC diagnostic push
			#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wstringop-truncation"
			strncpy(label, argv[2], MSDOS_NAME);
			#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
		}
		if (argc == 2)
			label = NULL;

		fd = open(path, O_RDONLY);
		if (fd < 0)
			goto err;

		ioctl(fd, VFAT_IOCTL_SET_LABEL, label);

		close(fd);
	err:
		perror(NULL);
		return errno;
	}
