It might be possible for two callers to race the mutex lock after the

There are two places in ecryptfs that benefit from using
ecryptfs_dentry_to_lower_path() instead of separate calls to
ecryptfs_dentry_to_lower() and ecryptfs_dentry_to_lower_mnt(). Both
sites use fewer instructions and less stack (determined by examining
objdump output).

The 'dest' abbreviation is only used in crypt_scatterlist(), while all
other functions in crypto.c use 'dst' so dest_sg should be renamed to
dst_sg.
The crypt_stat parameter is typically the first parameter in internal
eCryptfs functions so crypt_stat and dst_page should be swapped in
crypt_extent().

When reading in a page, eCryptfs would allocate a helper page, fill it
with encrypted data from the lower filesytem, and then decrypt the data
from the encrypted page and store the result in the eCryptfs page cache
page.
The crypto API supports in-place crypto operations which means that the
allocation of the helper page is unnecessary when decrypting. This patch
gets rid of the unneeded page allocation by reading encrypted data from
the lower filesystem directly into the page cache page. The page cache
page is then decrypted in-place.

When msync is called on a memory mapped file, that
data is not flushed to the disk.
In Linux, msync calls fsync for the file. For ecryptfs,
fsync just calls the lower level file system's fsync.

before calling the lower level fsync.

Pull eCryptfs update from Tyler Hicks:
"Improve performance when AES-NI (and most likely other crypto
accelerators) is available by moving to the ablkcipher crypto API.
The improvement is more apparent on faster storage devices.

eCryptfs: Use the ablkcipher crypto API
|
|
Make the switch from the blkcipher kernel crypto interface to the
ablkcipher interface.
encrypt_scatterlist() and decrypt_scatterlist() now use the ablkcipher
interface but, from the eCryptfs standpoint, still treat the crypto
operation as a synchronous operation. They submit the async request and
then wait until the operation is finished before they return. Most of
the changes are contained inside those two functions.
Despite waiting for the completion of the crypto operation, the
ablkcipher interface provides performance increases in most cases when
used on AES-NI capable hardware.

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.
A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.
Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.
Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.
This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.
This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.
After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

ecryptfs_write_begin grabs a page from page cache for writing.
If the page contains invalid data, or data older than the
counterpart on the disk, eCryptfs will read out the
corresponing data from the disk into the page, decrypt them,
then perform writing. However, for this page, if the length
of the data to be written into is equal to page size,
that means the whole page of data will be overwritten,
in which case, it does not matter whatever the data were before,
it is beneficial to perform writing directly rather than bothering
to read and decrypt first.
With this optimization, according to our test on a machine with
Intel Core 2 Duo processor, iozone 'write' operation on an existing
file with write size being multiple of page size will enjoy a steady
3x speedup.

- big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
that is moved to fs/file.c
(BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c. As it is,
we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
struct file we used to have way back).
A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of
relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
leak.
- related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).
- also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
switch of fdinfo to seq_file.
- Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
take that commit than mess with conflicts. The rest is a separate
pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.
- a few misc patches all over the place. Not all for this cycle,
there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."
Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)
