The guidelines for adding automount support to a filesystem
in filesystems/automount-support.txt is out or date.
filesystems/autofs4.txt contains more current text, so replace
the out-of-date content with a reference to that.

touch_atime is not RCU-safe, and so cannot be called on an RCU walk.
However, in situations where RCU-walk makes a difference, the symlink
will likely to accessed much more often than it is useful to update
the atime.

So split out the test of "Does the atime actually need to be updated"
into  atime_needs_update(), and have get_link() unlazy if it finds that
it will need to do that update.

We are almost done - primitives for leaving RCU mode are aware of nd->stack
now, a new primitive for going to non-RCU mode when we have a symlink on hands
added.

The thing we are heavily relying upon is that *any* unlazy failure will be
shortly followed by terminate_walk(), with no access to nameidata in between.
So it's enough to leave the things in a state terminate_walk() would cope with.

rcu_read_lock; return values are
0  =>  grabbed a reference, we are fine
1  =>  failed, just go away

We *can't* call that audit garbage in RCU mode - it's doing a weird
mix of allocations (GFP_NOFS, immediately followed by GFP_KERNEL)
and I'm not touching that... thing again.

So if this security sclero^Whardening feature gets triggered when
we are in RCU mode, tough - we'll fail with -ECHILD and have
everything restarted in non-RCU mode.  Only to hit the same test
and fail, this time with EACCES and with (oh, rapture) an audit spew
produced.

very simple - just make path_put() conditional on !RCU.
Note that right now it doesn't get called in RCU mode -
we leave it before getting anything into stack.

only one instance looks at that argument at all; that sole
exception wants inode rather than dentry.
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

inode_follow_link now takes an inode and rcu flag as well as the
dentry.

inode is used in preference to d_backing_inode(dentry), particularly
in RCU-walk mode.

selinux_inode_follow_link() gets dentry_has_perm() and
inode_has_perm() open-coded into it so that it can call
avc_has_perm_flags() in way that is safe if LOOKUP_RCU is set.

Calling avc_has_perm_flags() with rcu_read_lock() held means
that when avc_has_perm_noaudit calls avc_compute_av(), the attempt
to rcu_read_unlock() before calling security_compute_av() will not
actually drop the RCU read-lock.

However as security_compute_av() is completely in a read_lock()ed
region, it should be safe with the RCU read-lock held.

This allows MAY_NOT_BLOCK to be passed, in RCU-walk mode, through

Lift it from link_path_walk(), trailing_symlink(), lookup_last(),

Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Make trailing_symlink() return the pathname to traverse or ERR_PTR(-E...).
A subtle point is that for "magic" symlinks it returns "" now - that
leads to link_path_walk("", nd), which is immediately returning 0 and
we are back to the treatment of the last component, at whereever the
damn thing has left us.

Reduces the stack footprint - link_path_walk() called on more shallow
stack now.

* lift link_path_walk() into callers; moving it down into path_init()
had been a mistake.  Stack footprint, among other things...
* do _not_ call path_cleanup() after path_init() failure; on all failure
exits out of it we have nothing for path_cleanup() to do
* have path_init() return pathname or ERR_PTR(-E...)

Makes the situation much more regular - we avoid a strange state
when the element just after the top of stack is used to store
struct path of symlink, but isn't counted in nd->depth.  This
is much more regular, so the normal failure exits, etc., work
fine.

... and don't open-code unlazy_walk() in there - the only reason

rather than letting the callers handle the jump-to-root part of
semantics, do it right in get_link() and return the rest of the
body for the caller to deal with - at that point it's treated
the same way as relative symlinks would be.  And return NULL
when there's no "rest of the body" - those are treated the same
as pure jump symlink would be.

Instead of saving name and branching to OK:, where we'll immediately restore
it, and call walk_component() with WALK_PUT|WALK_GET and nd->last_type being
LAST_BIND, which is equivalent to put_link(nd), err = 0, we can just treat
that the same way we'd treat procfs-style "jump" symlinks - do put_link(nd)
and move on.

when cookie is NULL, put_link() is equivalent to path_put(), so
