[PATCH v13 0/4] io_uring: add xattr support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This adds the xattr support to io_uring. The intent is to have a more
complete support for file operations in io_uring.

This change adds support for the following functions to io_uring:
- fgetxattr
- fsetxattr
- getxattr
- setxattr

Patch 1: fs: split off setxattr_copy and do_setxattr function from setxattr
  Split off the setup part of the setxattr function in the setxattr_copy
  function. Split off the processing part in do_setxattr.

Patch 2: fs: split off do_getxattr from getxattr
  Split of the do_getxattr part from getxattr. This will
  allow it to be invoked it from io_uring.

Patch 3: io_uring: add fsetxattr and setxattr support
  This adds new functions to support the fsetxattr and setxattr
  functions.

Patch 4: io_uring: add fgetxattr and getxattr support
  This adds new functions to support the fgetxattr and getxattr
  functions.


There are two additional patches:
  liburing: Add support for xattr api's.
            This also includes the tests for the new code.
  xfstests: Add support for io_uring xattr support.


Changes:
V13: - refreshed the code
     - Review comments mentioned that the statx api in io_uring was
       not following the same pattern as the xattr api. This has
       been fixed by a previous patch (using the same pattern as
       this patch)
V12: - add union to xattr_ctx structure. The getxattr api requires
       a pointer to value and the setxattr requires a const pointer
       to value (with a union this can be unified).
     - use xattr_ctx structure in do_getxattr call.
V11: - removed the do_user_path_at_empty function and directly
       call filename_lookup
     - introduce __io_xattr_finish and io_xattr_finish functions
       to unify the cleanup code
     - remove the older __io_setxattr_finish function
V10: - move do_user_path_at_empty definition to fs/internal.h
     - introduce __io_setxattr_finish function
     - introduce __io_getxattr_finish function
V9 : - keep kvalue in struct xattr_ctx
V8 : - introduce xattr_name struct as advised by Linus
     - remove kname_sz field in xattr_ctx
V7 : - split off setxattr in two functions as recommeneded by
       Christian.
V6 : - reverted addition of kname array to xattr_ctx structure
       Adding the kname array increases the io_kiocb beyond 64 bytes
       (increases it to 224 bytes). We try hard to limit it to 64 bytes.
       Keeping the original interface also is a bit more efficient.
     - addressed Pavel's reordering comment
     - addressed Pavel's putname comment
     - addressed Pavel's kvfree comment
     - rebased on for-5.17/io_uring-getdents64
V5 : - add kname array to xattr_ctx structure
V4 : - rebased patch series
V3 : - remove req->file checks in prep functions
     - change size parameter in do_xattr
V2 : - split off function do_user_path_empty instead of changing
       the function signature of user_path_at
     - Fix datatype size problem in do_getxattr
