========
OVERVIEW
========
The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
with getxattr(), but the general preferance proved to be for a new syscall
with an extended stat structure.
This has a number of uses:
(1) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann].
(2) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could
be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of
FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data.
This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could
be exported by NFSD [Steve French].
(3) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a
netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly
without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas
Dilger].
(4) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks
its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust].
(5) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh
Kumar].
Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves
i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get
it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead.
(6) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such
as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen)
[Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert].
(7) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers
[Bernd Schubert]. This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary
with the open-by-handle capability available
(8) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger].
(9) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A
filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if
that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't
exist or are fabricated locally...
(10) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.
(11) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in
struct xstat [Steve French].
(12) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the
granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French].
(13) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags.
Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4
define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel
may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too).
(14) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer,
Michael Kerrisk].
(15) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
future expansion.
===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============
The new system call is:
int ret = statx(int dfd,
const char *filename,
unsigned int flags,
unsigned int mask,
struct statx *buffer);
The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query. There
is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be emulated with statx() by passing
AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is also no equivalent of fstat() as
that can be emulated by passing a NULL filename to statx() with the fd of
interest in dfd.
AT_FORCE_ATTR_SYNC can be set in flags. This will require a network
filesystem to synchronise its attributes with the server.
AT_NO_ATTR_SYNC can be set in flags. This will suppress synchronisation
with the server in a network filesystem. The resulting values should be
considered approximate.
mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of
interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to
get the basic set returned by stat().
buffer points to the destination for the main data. This must be 256 bytes
in size.
======================
MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD
======================
The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute
set:
struct statx {
__u32 st_mask;
__u32 st_information;
__u16 st_mode;
__u16 __spare0[1];
__u32 st_nlink;
__u32 st_uid;
__u32 st_gid;
__u32 st_blksize;
__u32 __spare1[3];
__u32 st_rdev_major;
__u32 st_rdev_minor;
__u32 st_dev_major;
__u32 st_dev_minor;
__s32 st_atime_ns;
__s32 st_btime_ns;
__s32 st_ctime_ns;
__s32 st_mtime_ns;
__s64 st_atime;
__s64 st_btime;
__s64 st_ctime;
__s64 st_mtime;
__u64 st_ino;
__u64 st_size;
__u64 st_blocks;
__u64 st_version;
__u64 st_ioc_flags;
__u64 __spare1[14];
};
where st_information is local system information about the file, st_btime
is the file creation time, st_version is the data version number
(i_version), st_ioc_flags holds the flags from FS_IOC_GETFLAGS, st_mask is
a bitmask indicating the data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet
undefined fields can be placed.
Time fields are split into separate seconds and nanoseconds fields to make
packing easier and the granularities can be queried with the filesystem
info system call. Note that times will be negative if before 1970; in such
a case, the nanosecond fields should also be negative if not zero.
The defined bits in request_mask and st_mask are:
STATX_MODE Want/got st_mode
STATX_NLINK Want/got st_nlink
STATX_UID Want/got st_uid
STATX_GID Want/got st_gid
STATX_RDEV Want/got st_rdev_*
STATX_ATIME Want/got st_atime
STATX_MTIME Want/got st_mtime
STATX_CTIME Want/got st_ctime
STATX_INO Want/got st_ino
STATX_SIZE Want/got st_size
STATX_BLOCKS Want/got st_blocks
STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct]
STATX_BTIME Want/got st_btime
STATX_VERSION Want/got st_data_version
STATX_IOC_FLAGS Want/got FS_IOC_GETFLAGS
STATX_ALL_STATS [All currently available stuff]
The defined bits in st_ioc_flags are the usual FS_xxx_FL, plus some extra
flags that might be supplied by the filesystem. Note that Ext4 returns
flags outside of {EXT4,FS}_FL_USER_VISIBLE in response to FS_IOC_GETFLAGS.
Should {EXT4,FS}_FL_USER_VISIBLE be extended to cover them? Or should the
extra flags be suppressed?
The defined bits in the st_information field give local system data on a
file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does:
STATX_INFO_ENCRYPTED File is encrypted
STATX_INFO_TEMPORARY File is temporary (NTFS/CIFS/deleted)
STATX_INFO_FABRICATED File was made up by filesystem
STATX_INFO_KERNEL_API File is kernel API (eg: procfs/sysfs)
STATX_INFO_REMOTE File is remote
STATX_INFO_OFFLINE File is offline (CIFS)
STATX_INFO_AUTOMOUNT Dir is automount trigger
STATX_INFO_AUTODIR Dir provides unlisted automounts
STATX_INFO_NONSYSTEM_OWNERSHIP File has non-system ownership details
STATX_INFO_REPARSE_POINT File is reparse point (NTFS/CIFS)
These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially,
depending on what they are. I've tried not to provide overlap with
st_ioc_flags where something usable exists there.
The fields in struct statx come in a number of classes:
(0) st_dev_*, st_information.
These are local data and are always available.
(1) st_nlinks, st_uid, st_gid, st_[amc]time*, st_ino, st_size, st_blocks,
st_blksize.
These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The
corresponding bits in st_mask will be set to indicate their presence.
If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For
example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server, unless as
a byproduct of updating something requested.
If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as
UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the st_mask,
even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned
value will be a fabrication.
(2) st_mode.
The part of this that identifies the file type will always be
available, irrespective of the setting of STATX_MODE. The access
flags and sticky bit are as for class (1).
(3) st_rdev_*.
As for class (1), but these won't be returned if the file is not a
blockdev or chardev. The bit will be cleared if the value is not
returned.
(4) File creation time (st_btime*), data version (st_version), inode flags
(st_ioc_flags).
These will be returned if available whether the caller asked for them or
not. The corresponding bits in st_mask will be set or cleared as
appropriate to indicate their presence.
If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For
example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server, unless
as a byproduct of updating something requested.
=======
TESTING
=======
The following test program can be used to test the statx system call:
samples/statx/test-statx.c
Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine.
The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled.
Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to
another FSID. Note that the FABRICATED and AUTOMOUNT info flags are set.
The former because the directory is invented locally as we don't see the
underlying dir on the server, the latter because transiting this directory
will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.
