This adds initial failure injection support to kernfs. We start
off with debug knobs which when enabled allow test drivers, such as
test_sysfs, to then make use of these to try to force certain
difficult races to take place with a high degree of certainty.
This only adds runtime code *iff* the new bool CONFIG_FAIL_KERNFS_KNOBS is
enabled in your kernel. If you don't have this enabled this provides
no new functional. When CONFIG_FAIL_KERNFS_KNOBS is disabled the new
routine kernfs_debug_should_wait() ends up being transformed to if
(false), and so the compiler should optimize these out as dead code
producing no new effective binary changes.
We start off with enabling failure injections in kernfs by allowing us to
alter the way kernfs_fop_write_iter() behaves. We allow for the routine
kernfs_fop_write_iter() to wait for a certain condition in the kernel to
occur, after which it will sleep a predefined amount of time. This lets
kernfs users to time exactly when it want kernfs_fop_write_iter() to
complete, allowing for developing race conditions and test for correctness
in kernfs.
You'd boot with this enabled on your kernel command line:
fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter=1,100,0,1
The values are <interval,probability,size,times>, we don't care for
size, so for now we ignore it. The above ensures a failure will trigger
only once.
*How* we allow for this routine to change behaviour is left to knobs we
expose under debugfs:
# ls -1 /sys/kernel/debug/kernfs/config_fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter/
wait_after_active
wait_after_mutex
wait_at_start
wait_before_mutex
A debugfs entry also exists to allow us to sleep a configurabler amount
of time after the completion:
/sys/kernel/debug/kernfs/sleep_after_wait_ms
These two sets of knobs allow us to construct races and demonstrate
how the kernfs active reference should suffice to project against
races.
Enabling CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS enables us to configure the
differnt fault injection parametres for the new fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter
fault injection at run time:
ls -1 /sys/kernel/debug/kernfs/fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter/
interval
probability
space
task-filter
times
verbose
verbose_ratelimit_burst
verbose_ratelimit_interval_ms

+- fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter
+
+ Allows for failures to be enabled inside kernfs_fop_write_iter(). Enabling
+ this does not immediately enable any errors to occur. You must configure
+ how you want this routine to fail or change behaviour by using the debugfs
+ knobs for it:
+
+ # ls -1 /sys/kernel/debug/kernfs/config_fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter/
+ wait_after_active
+ wait_after_mutex
+ wait_at_start
+ wait_before_mutex
+
+ You can also configure how long to sleep after a wait under
+
+ /sys/kernel/debug/kernfs/sleep_after_wait_ms
+
+ If you enable CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS the fail_add_disk failure
+ injection parameters are placed under:
+
+ /sys/kernel/debug/kernfs/fail_kernfs_fop_write_iter/
