add unique mount ID

If a mount is released then its mnt_id can immediately be reused. This is
bad news for user interfaces that want to uniquely identify a mount.

Implementing a unique mount ID is trivial (use a 64bit counter).
Unfortunately userspace assumes 32bit size and would overflow after the
counter reaches 2^32.

Introduce a new 64bit ID alongside the old one. Initialize the counter to
2^32, this guarantees that the old and new IDs are never mixed up.

fs: Pass AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag to getattr interface function

When vfs_getattr_nosec() calls a filesystem's getattr interface function
then the 'nosec' should propagate into this function so that
vfs_getattr_nosec() can again be called from the filesystem's gettattr
rather than vfs_getattr(). The latter would add unnecessary security
checks that the initial vfs_getattr_nosec() call wanted to avoid.
Therefore, introduce the getattr flag GETATTR_NOSEC and allow to pass
with the new getattr_flags parameter to the getattr interface function.
In overlayfs and ecryptfs use this flag to determine which one of the
two functions to call.

In a recent code change introduced to IMA vfs_getattr_nosec() ended up
calling vfs_getattr() in overlayfs, which in turn called
security_inode_getattr() on an exiting process that did not have
current->fs set anymore, which then caused a kernel NULL pointer
dereference. With this change the call to security_inode_getattr() can
be avoided, thus avoiding the NULL pointer dereference.

The choose_32_64() macros were added to deal with an odd inconsistency
between the 32-bit and 64-bit layout of 'struct stat' way back when in
commit a52dd971f947 ("vfs: de-crapify "cp_new_stat()" function").

Then a decade later Mikulas noticed that said inconsistency had been a
mistake in the early x86-64 port, and shouldn't have existed in the
first place. So commit 932aba1e1690 ("stat: fix inconsistency between
struct stat and struct compat_stat") removed the uses of the helpers.

But the helpers remained around, unused.

vfs: mostly undo glibc turning 'fstat()' into 'fstatat(AT_EMPTY_PATH)'

Mateusz reports that glibc turns 'fstat()' calls into 'fstatat()', and
that seems to have been going on for quite a long time due to glibc
having tried to simplify its stat logic into just one point.

This turns out to cause completely unnecessary overhead, where we then
go off and allocate the kernel side pathname, and actually look up the
empty path. Sure, our path lookup is quite optimized, but it still
causes a fair bit of allocation overhead and a couple of completely
unnecessary rounds of lockref accesses etc.

This is all hopefully getting fixed in user space, and there is a patch
floating around for just having glibc use the native fstat() system
call. But even with the current situation we can at least improve on
things by catching the situation and short-circuiting it.

Note that this is still measurably slower than just a plain 'fstat()',
since just checking that the filename is actually empty is somewhat
expensive due to inevitable user space access overhead from the kernel
(ie verifying pointers, and SMAP on x86). But it's still quite a bit
faster than actually looking up the path for real.

To quote numers from Mateusz:
"Sapphire Rapids, will-it-scale, ops/s

stock fstat 5088199
patched fstat 7625244 (+49%)
real fstat 8540383 (+67% / +12%)"

where that 'stock fstat' is the glibc translation of fstat into
fstatat() with an empty path, the 'patched fstat' is with this short
circuiting of the path lookup, and the 'real fstat' is the actual native
fstat() system call with none of this overhead.

fs: add infrastructure for multigrain timestamps

The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around 1 per jiffy,
even when a file is under heavy writes.

Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of
exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are
subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other
applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g backup
applications).

If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve the
situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.

What we need is a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are
being actively queried.

POSIX generally mandates that when the the mtime changes, the ctime must
also change. The kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so only
the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.

Use the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that something
has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag is set,
on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a fine-grained
timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.

Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.

Later patches will convert individual filesystems to use the new
infrastructure.

vfs: plumb i_version handling into struct kstat

The NFS server has a lot of special handling for different types of
change attribute access, depending on the underlying filesystem. In
most cases, it's doing a getattr anyway and then fetching that value
after the fact.

Rather that do that, add a new STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE flag that is a
kernel-only symbol (for now). If requested and getattr can implement it,
it can fill out this field. For IS_I_VERSION inodes, add a generic
implementation in vfs_getattr_nosec. Take care to mask
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE off in requests from userland and in the result
mask.

Since not all filesystems can give the same guarantees of monotonicity,
claim a STATX_ATTR_CHANGE_MONOTONIC flag that filesystems can set to
indicate that they offer an i_version value that can never go backward.

Eventually if we decide to make the i_version available to userland, we
can just designate a field for it in struct statx, and move the
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE definition to the uapi header.

statx: add direct I/O alignment information

Traditionally, the conditions for when DIO (direct I/O) is supported
were fairly simple. For both block devices and regular files, DIO had
to be aligned to the logical block size of the block device.

However, due to filesystem features that have been added over time (e.g.
multi-device support, data journalling, inline data, encryption, verity,
compression, checkpoint disabling, log-structured mode), the conditions
for when DIO is allowed on a regular file have gotten increasingly
complex. Whether a particular regular file supports DIO, and with what
alignment, can depend on various file attributes and filesystem mount
options, as well as which block device(s) the file's data is located on.

Moreover, the general rule of DIO needing to be aligned to the block
device's logical block size was recently relaxed to allow user buffers
(but not file offsets) aligned to the DMA alignment instead. See
commit bf8d08532bc1 ("iomap: add support for dma aligned direct-io").

XFS has an ioctl XFS_IOC_DIOINFO that exposes DIO alignment information.
Uplifting this to the VFS is one possibility. However, as discussed
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20220120071215.123274-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/T/#u),
this ioctl is rarely used and not known to be used outside of
XFS-specific code. It was also never intended to indicate when a file
doesn't support DIO at all, nor was it intended for block devices.

Therefore, let's expose this information via statx(). Add the
STATX_DIOALIGN flag and two new statx fields associated with it:

* stx_dio_mem_align: the alignment (in bytes) required for user memory
buffers for DIO, or 0 if DIO is not supported on the file.

* stx_dio_offset_align: the alignment (in bytes) required for file
offsets and I/O segment lengths for DIO, or 0 if DIO is not supported
on the file. This will only be nonzero if stx_dio_mem_align is
nonzero, and vice versa.

Note that as with other statx() extensions, if STATX_DIOALIGN isn't set
in the returned statx struct, then these new fields won't be filled in.
This will happen if the file is neither a regular file nor a block
device, or if the file is a regular file and the filesystem doesn't
support STATX_DIOALIGN. It might also happen if the caller didn't
include STATX_DIOALIGN in the request mask, since statx() isn't required
to return unrequested information.

This commit only adds the VFS-level plumbing for STATX_DIOALIGN. For
regular files, individual filesystems will still need to add code to
support it. For block devices, a separate commit will wire it up too.

Note that we can't change compat_dev_t because it is used by

IO-Uring change:
This changes replaces the const char * filename pointer in the io_statx
structure with a struct filename *. In addition it also creates the
filename object during the prepare phase.

With this change, the opcode also needs to invoke cleanup, so the
filename object gets freed after processing the request.

fs change:
This replaces the const char* __user filename parameter in the two
functions do_statx and vfs_statx with a struct filename *. In addition
to be able to correctly construct a filename object a new helper
function getname_statx_lookup_flags is introduced. The function makes
sure that do_statx and vfs_statx is invoked with the correct lookup flags.

namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for
additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to
translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all
relevant helpers in earlier patches.

As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of
introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly
mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

stat: handle idmapped mounts

The generic_fillattr() helper fills in the basic attributes associated
with an inode. Enable it to handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is
accessed through an idmapped mount map it into the mount's user
namespace before we store the uid and gid. If the initial user namespace
is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical
behavior as before.
