From: Luis Henriques <lhenriques@suse.de>

A regression has been reported by Nicolas Boichat, found while using the
copy_file_range syscall to copy a tracefs file.  Before commit
5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across devices") the
kernel would return -EXDEV to userspace when trying to copy a file across
different filesystems.  After this commit, the syscall doesn't fail anymore
and instead returns zero (zero bytes copied), as this file's content is
generated on-the-fly and thus reports a size of zero.

Another regression has been reported by He Zhe - the assertion of
WARN_ON_ONCE(ret == -EOPNOTSUPP) can be triggered from userspace when
copying from a sysfs file whose read operation may return -EOPNOTSUPP.

Since we do not have test coverage for copy_file_range() between any
two types of filesystems, the best way to avoid these sort of issues
in the future is for the kernel to be more picky about filesystems that
are allowed to do copy_file_range().

This patch restores some cross-filesystem copy restrictions that existed
prior to commit 5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices"), namely, cross-sb copy is not allowed for filesystems that do
not implement ->copy_file_range().

Filesystems that do implement ->copy_file_range() have full control of
the result - if this method returns an error, the error is returned to
the user.  Before this change this was only true for fs that did not
implement the ->remap_file_range() operation (i.e. nfsv3).

Filesystems that implement only ->remap_file_range() (i.e. xfs) may still
fall-back to the generic_copy_file_range() implementation when the copy
is within the same sb, but filesystem cannot handle the reuqested copied
range.  This helps the kernel can maintain a more consistent story about
which filesystems support copy_file_range().

nfsd and ksmbd servers are modified to fall-back to the
generic_copy_file_range() implementation in case vfs_copy_file_range()
fails with -EOPNOTSUPP or -EXDEV, which preserves behavior of
server-side-copy.

fall-back to generic_copy_file_range() is not implemented for the smb
operation FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE, which is arguably a correct
change of behavior.

Hi Steve, Namje,

I was going to ping Al about this patch when I remembered that we have
another kernel file server that supports server side copy and needs to
be adjusted. I also realized that v13 wrongly (?) falls back to
generic_copy_file_range() in nfs/smb client code.

It would be great if you could review my ksmbd change and run the fstests
as below in your test setup.

I tested knfsd with kvm-xfstests:
$ kvm-xfstests -c nfs -g copy_range
...
nfs/loopback: 11 tests, 2 skipped, 28 seconds
  generic/430  Pass     3s
  generic/431  Pass     4s
  generic/432  Pass     3s
  generic/433  Pass     4s
  generic/434  Pass     3s
  generic/553  Skipped  1s
  generic/564  Pass     3s
  generic/565  Pass     4s
  generic/629  Skipped  1s
Totals: 9 tests, 2 skipped, 0 failures, 0 errors, 26s

These tests were run when local server fs is ext4 (no clone support)
and when local server fs is xfs (clone support, but not cross-sb clone),
which is relevant for cross-fs copy test generic/565.

It would be great if someone could add smb config support to kvm-xfstests
following the existing nfs/loopback config as reference.

I rather make this change to copy_file_range() syscall and nfsd/ksmbd
with a single patch, so I will be waiting for your review/test.

Olga,

It would be great if you can verify my test results and also test this
patch with nfsd server-side-copy across different combination of exported
fs. It would also be great if you can ack that the behavior change of
"no fall back to generic_copy_file_range() in nfs42 client" is desired.

Luis,

I did not added your Tested-by and RVB from v13, because the patch had
changed. Note that you are still the author of the patch, as I felt there
is still more code in the patch from v12 than code that I have changed.
If you would like me to change that let me know.

Thanks,
Amir.

Changes since v13 [1]:
- Rebased and tested over 5.19-rc1
- Never fallback from ->copy_file_range() to generic_copy_file_range()
- Added fallback to generic_copy_file_range() in ksmbd
- Typo fixes in commit message and comments

I'm OK either way, I'll just ask you to keep me on the CC list please.  I
haven't looked at this rev yet, I'll try to do so tomorrow, and run some
tests against cephfs.

OK, no surprises from testing this patch on ceph, so feel free to add my

I have run xfstests against ksmbd. All tests are passed.
You can add my tags for ksmbd.
