On inode modification we clear the ignored mask for all of the marks on the
inode. This allows userspace to ignore accesses to inodes until there is
something different.

Change the sys_fanotify_mark() system call so users can set ignored_masks
on inodes. Remember, if a user new sets a real mask, and only sets ignored
masks, the ignore will never be pinned in memory. Thus ignored_masks can
be lost under memory pressure and the user may again get events they
previously thought were ignored.

When fanotify receives an event it will check event->mask & ~ignored_mask.

The ignored_mask is a new mask which is part of fsnotify marks. A group's
should_send_event() function can use the ignored mask to determine that
certain events are not of interest. In particular if a group registers a
mask including FS_OPEN on a vfsmount they could add FS_OPEN to the
ignored_mask for individual inodes and not send open events for those
inodes.

inotify marks must pin inodes in core. dnotify doesn't technically need to
since they are closed when the directory is closed. fanotify also need to
pin inodes in core as it works today. But the next step is to introduce
the concept of 'ignored masks' which is actually a mask of events for an
inode of no interest. I claim that these should be liberally sent to the
kernel and should not pin the inode in core. If the inode is brought back
in the listener will get an event it may have thought excluded, but this is
not a serious situation and one any listener should deal with.
This patch lays the ground work for non-pinning inode marks by using lazy
inode pinning. We do not pin a mark until it has a non-zero mask entry. If a
listener new sets a mask we never pin the inode.

Please note that you need the patch below in addition, otherwise the

When enabled the syscall wrapper defines always take long parameters and then
cast them to whatever is needed. This approach doesn't work for the 32 bit
case where the original syscall takes a long long parameter, since we would
lose the upper 32 bits.
So syscalls with 64 bit arguments are special cases wrt to syscall wrappers
and enp up in the ugliness below (see also sys_fallocate). In addition these
special cased syscall wrappers have the drawback that ftrace syscall tracing
doesn't work on them, since they don't get defined by using the usual macros.

NAME
fanotify_mark - add, remove, or modify an fanotify mark on a
filesystem object
SYNOPSIS
int fanotify_mark(int fanotify_fd, unsigned int flags, u64 mask,
int dfd, const char *pathname)
DESCRIPTION
fanotify_mark() is used to add remove or modify a mark on a filesystem
object. Marks are used to indicate that the fanotify group is
interested in events which occur on that object. At this point in
time marks may only be added to files and directories.
fanotify_fd must be a file descriptor returned by fanotify_init()
The flags field must contain exactly one of the following:
FAN_MARK_ADD - or the bits in mask and ignored mask into the mark
FAN_MARK_REMOVE - bitwise remove the bits in mask and ignored mark
from the mark
The following values can be OR'd into the flags field:
FAN_MARK_DONT_FOLLOW - same meaning as O_NOFOLLOW as described in open(2)
FAN_MARK_ONLYDIR - same meaning as O_DIRECTORY as described in open(2)
dfd may be any of the following:
AT_FDCWD: the object will be lookup up based on pathname similar
to open(2)
file descriptor of a directory: if pathname is not NULL the
object to modify will be lookup up similar to openat(2)
file descriptor of the final object: if pathname is NULL the
object to modify will be the object referenced by dfd
The mask is the bitwise OR of the set of events of interest such as:
FAN_ACCESS - object was accessed (read)
FAN_MODIFY - object was modified (write)
FAN_CLOSE_WRITE - object was writable and was closed
FAN_CLOSE_NOWRITE - object was read only and was closed
FAN_OPEN - object was opened
FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD - interested in objected that happen to
children. Only relavent when the object
is a directory
FAN_Q_OVERFLOW - event queue overflowed (not implemented)
RETURN VALUE
On success, this system call returns 0. On error, -1 is
returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
EINVAL An invalid value was specified in flags.
EINVAL An invalid value was specified in mask.
EINVAL An invalid value was specified in ignored_mask.
EINVAL fanotify_fd is not a file descriptor as returned by
fanotify_init()
EBADF fanotify_fd is not a valid file descriptor
EBADF dfd is not a valid file descriptor and path is NULL.
ENOTDIR dfd is not a directory and path is not NULL
EACCESS no search permissions on some part of the path
ENENT file not found
ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory is available.

NAME
fanotify_init - initialize an fanotify group
SYNOPSIS
int fanotify_init(unsigned int flags, unsigned int event_f_flags, int priority);
DESCRIPTION
fanotify_init() initializes a new fanotify instance and returns a file
descriptor associated with the new fanotify event queue.
The following values can be OR'd into the flags field:
FAN_NONBLOCK Set the O_NONBLOCK file status flag on the new open file description.
Using this flag saves extra calls to fcntl(2) to achieve the same
result.
FAN_CLOEXEC Set the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag on the new file descriptor.
See the description of the O_CLOEXEC flag in open(2) for reasons why
this may be useful.
The event_f_flags argument is unused and must be set to 0
The priority argument is unused and must be set to 0
RETURN VALUE
On success, this system call return a new file descriptor. On error, -1 is
returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
EINVAL An invalid value was specified in flags.
EINVAL A non-zero valid was passed in event_f_flags or in priority
ENFILE The system limit on the total number of file descriptors has been reached.
ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory is available.
CONFORMING TO

the inotify_init() syscall.

Currently if 2 events are going to be merged on the notication queue with
different masks the second event will be cloned and will replace the first
event. However if this notification queue is the only place referencing
the event in question there is no reason not to just update the event in
place. We can tell this if the event->refcnt == 1. Since we hold a
reference for each queue this event is on we know that when refcnt == 1
this is the only queue. The other concern is that it might be about to be
added to a new queue, but this can't be the case since fsnotify holds a
reference on the event until it is finished adding it to queues.

Instead of just merging fanotify events if they are exactly the same, merge
notification events with different masks. To do this we have to clone the
old event, update the mask in the new event with the new merged mask, and
put the new event in place of the old event.

fanotify listeners get an open file descriptor to the object in question so
the ordering of operations is not as important as in other notification
systems. inotify will drop events if the last event in the event FIFO is
the same as the current event. This patch will drop fanotify events if
they are the same as another event anywhere in the event FIFO.

fanotify is a novel file notification system which bases notification on
giving userspace both an event type (open, close, read, write) and an open
file descriptor to the object in question. This should address a number of
races and problems with other notification systems like inotify and dnotify
and should allow the future implementation of blocking or access controlled
notification. These are useful for on access scanners or hierachical storage
management schemes.
This patch just implements the basics of the fsnotify functions.

currently all of the notification systems implemented select which inodes
they care about and receive messages only about those inodes (or the
children of those inodes.) This patch begins to flesh out fsnotify support
for the concept of listeners that want to hear notification for an inode
accessed below a given monut point. This patch implements a second list
of fsnotify groups to hold these types of groups and a second global mask
to hold the events of interest for this type of group.
The reason we want a second group list and mask is because the inode based
notification should_send_event support which makes each group look for a mark
on the given inode. With one nfsmount listener that means that every group would
have to take the inode->i_lock, look for their mark, not find one, and return
for every operation. By seperating vfsmount from inode listeners only when
there is a inode listener will the inode groups have to look for their
mark and take the inode lock. vfsmount listeners will have to grab the lock and
look for a mark but there should be fewer of them, and one vfsmount listener
won't cause the i_lock to be grabbed and released for every fsnotify group
on every io operation.

Currently the comments say that group->num_marks is held because the group

it is really being held.
