+Mappable notifications queue
+============================
+
+This is a misc device that acts as a mapped ring buffer by which userspace can
+receive notifications from the kernel. This can be used in conjunction with::
+
+ * Key/keyring notifications
+
+ * General device event notifications
+
+
+The notifications buffers can be enabled by:
+
+ "Device Drivers"/"Misc devices"/"Mappable notification queue"
+ (CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE)
+
+This document has the following sections:
+
+.. contents:: :local:
+
+
+Overview
+========
+
+This facility appears as a misc device file that is opened and then mapped and
+polled. Each time it is opened, it creates a new buffer specific to the
+returned file descriptor. Then, when the opening process sets watches, it
+indicates the particular buffer it wants notifications from that watch to be
+written into. Note that there are no read() and write() methods (except for
+debugging). The user is expected to access the ring directly and to use poll
+to wait for new data.
+
+If a watch is in place, notifications are only written into the buffer if the
+filter criteria are passed and if there's sufficient space available in the
+ring. If neither of those is so, a notification will be discarded. In the
+latter case, an overrun indicator will also be set.
+
+Note that when producing a notification, the kernel does not wait for the
+consumers to collect it, but rather just continues on. This means that
+notifications can be generated whilst spinlocks are held and also protects the
+kernel from being held up indefinitely by a userspace malfunction.
+
+As far as the ring goes, the head index belongs to the kernel and the tail
+index belongs to userspace. The kernel will refuse to write anything if the
+tail index becomes invalid. Userspace *must* use appropriate memory barriers
+between reading or updating the tail index and reading the ring.
+
+
+Record Structure
+================
+
+Notification records in the ring may occupy a variable number of slots within
+the buffer, beginning with a 1-slot header::
+
+ struct watch_notification {
+ __u32 type:24;
+ __u32 subtype:8;
+ __u32 info;
+ } __attribute__((aligned(WATCH_LENGTH_GRANULARITY)));
+
+"type" indicates the source of the notification record and "subtype" indicates
+the type of record from that source (see the Watch Sources section below). The
+type may also be "WATCH_TYPE_META". This is a special record type generated
+internally by the watch queue driver itself. There are two subtypes, one of
+which indicates records that should be just skipped (padding or metadata):
+
+ * WATCH_META_SKIP_NOTIFICATION
+ * WATCH_META_REMOVAL_NOTIFICATION
+
+The former indicates a record that should just be skipped and the latter
+indicates that an object on which a watch was installed was removed or
+destroyed.
+
+"info" indicates a bunch of things, including:
+
+ * The length of the record in units of buffer slots (mask with
+ WATCH_INFO_LENGTH and shift by WATCH_INFO_LENGTH__SHIFT). This indicates
+ the size of the record, which may be between 1 and 63 slots. To turn this
+ into a number of bytes, multiply by WATCH_LENGTH_GRANULARITY.
+
+ * The watch ID (mask with WATCH_INFO_ID and shift by WATCH_INFO_ID__SHIFT).
+ This indicates that caller's ID of the watch, which may be between 0
+ and 255. Multiple watches may share a queue, and this provides a means to
+ distinguish them.
+
+ * In the metadata header in slot 0, a flag (WATCH_INFO_NOTIFICATIONS_LOST)
+ that indicates that some notifications were lost for some reason, including
+ buffer overrun, insufficient memory and inconsistent tail index.
+
+ * A type-specific field (WATCH_INFO_TYPE_INFO). This is set by the
+ notification producer to indicate some meaning specific to the type and
+ subtype.
+
+Everything in info apart from the length can be used for filtering.
+
+
+Ring Structure
+==============
+
+The ring is divided into slots of size WATCH_LENGTH_GRANULARITY (8 bytes). The
+caller uses an ioctl() to set the size of the ring after opening and this must
+be a power-of-2 multiple of the system page size (so that the mask can be used
+with AND).
+
+The head and tail indices are stored in the first two slots in the ring, which
+are marked out as a skippable entry::
+
+ struct watch_queue_buffer {
+ union {
+ struct {
+ struct watch_notification watch;
+ volatile __u32 head;
+ volatile __u32 tail;
+ __u32 mask;
+ } meta;
+ struct watch_notification slots[0];
+ };
+ };
+
+In "meta.watch", type will be set to WATCH_TYPE_META and subtype to
+WATCH_META_SKIP_NOTIFICATION so that anyone processing the buffer will just
+skip this record. Also, because this record is here, records cannot wrap round
+the end of the buffer, so a skippable padding element will be inserted at the
+end of the buffer if needed. Thus the contents of a notification record in the
+buffer are always contiguous.
+
+"meta.mask" is an AND'able mask to turn the index counters into slots array
+indices.
+
+The buffer is empty if "meta.head" == "meta.tail".
+
+[!] NOTE that the ring indices "meta.head" and "meta.tail" are indices into
+"slots[]" not byte offsets into the buffer.
+
+[!] NOTE that userspace must never change the head pointer. This belongs to
+the kernel and will be updated by that. The kernel will never change the tail
+pointer.
+
+[!] NOTE that userspace must never AND-off the tail pointer before updating it,
+but should just keep adding to it and letting it wrap naturally. The value
+*should* be masked off when used as an index into slots[].
+
+[!] NOTE that if the distance between head and tail becomes too great, the
+kernel will assume the buffer is full and write no more until the issue is
+resolved.
+
+
+Watch List (Notification Source) API
+====================================
+
+A "watch list" is a list of watchers that are subscribed to a source of
+notifications. A list may be attached to an object (say a key or a superblock)
+or may be global (say for device events). From a userspace perspective, a
+non-global watch list is typically referred to by reference to the object it
+belongs to (such as using KEYCTL_NOTIFY and giving it a key serial number to
+watch that specific key).
+
+To manage a watch list, the following functions are provided:
+
+ * ``void init_watch_list(struct watch_list *wlist,
+ void (*release_watch)(struct watch *wlist));``
+
+ Initialise a watch list. If ``release_watch`` is not NULL, then this
+ indicates a function that should be called when the watch_list object is
+ destroyed to discard any references the watch list holds on the watched
+ object.
+
+ * ``void remove_watch_list(struct watch_list *wlist);``
+
+ This removes all of the watches subscribed to a watch_list and frees them
+ and then destroys the watch_list object itself.
+
+
+Watch Queue (Notification Buffer) API
+=====================================
+
+A "watch queue" is the buffer allocated by or on behalf of the application that
+notification records will be written into. The workings of this are hidden
+entirely inside of the watch_queue device driver, but it is necessary to gain a
+reference to it to place a watch. These can be managed with:
+
+ * ``struct watch_queue *get_watch_queue(int fd);``
+
+ Since watch queues are indicated to the kernel by the fd of the character
+ device that implements the buffer, userspace must hand that fd through a
+ system call. This can be used to look up an opaque pointer to the watch
+ queue from the system call.
+
+ * ``void put_watch_queue(struct watch_queue *wqueue);``
+
+ This discards the reference obtained from ``get_watch_queue()``.
+
+
+Watch Subscription API
+======================
+
+A "watch" is a subscription on a watch list, indicating the watch queue, and
+thus the buffer, into which notification records should be written. The watch
+queue object may also carry filtering rules for that object, as set by
+userspace. Some parts of the watch struct can be set by the driver::
+
+ struct watch {
+ union {
+ u32 info_id; /* ID to be OR'd in to info field */
+ ...
+ };
+ void *private; /* Private data for the watched object */
+ u64 id; /* Internal identifier */
+ ...
+ };
+
+The ``info_id`` value should be an 8-bit number obtained from userspace and
+shifted by WATCH_INFO_ID__SHIFT. This is OR'd into the WATCH_INFO_ID field of
+struct watch_notification::info when and if the notification is written into
+the associated watch queue buffer.
+
+The ``private`` field is the driver's data associated with the watch_list and
+is cleaned up by the ``watch_list::release_watch()`` method.
+
+The ``id`` field is the source's ID. Notifications that are posted with a
+different ID are ignored.
+
+The following functions are provided to manage watches:
+
+ * ``void init_watch(struct watch *watch, struct watch_queue *wqueue);``
+
+ Initialise a watch object, setting its pointer to the watch queue, using
+ appropriate barriering to avoid lockdep complaints.
+
+ * ``int add_watch_to_object(struct watch *watch, struct watch_list *wlist);``
+
+ Subscribe a watch to a watch list (notification source). The
+ driver-settable fields in the watch struct must have been set before this
+ is called.
+
+ * ``int remove_watch_from_object(struct watch_list *wlist,
+ struct watch_queue *wqueue,
+ u64 id, false);``
+
+ Remove a watch from a watch list, where the watch must match the specified
+ watch queue (``wqueue``) and object identifier (``id``). A notification
+ (``WATCH_META_REMOVAL_NOTIFICATION``) is sent to the watch queue to
+ indicate that the watch got removed.
+
+ * ``int remove_watch_from_object(struct watch_list *wlist, NULL, 0, true);``
+
+ Remove all the watches from a watch list. It is expected that this will be
+ called preparatory to destruction and that the watch list will be
+ inaccessible to new watches by this point. A notification
+ (``WATCH_META_REMOVAL_NOTIFICATION``) is sent to the watch queue of each
+ subscribed watch to indicate that the watch got removed.
+
+
+Notification Posting API
+========================
+
+To post a notification to watch list so that the subscribed watches can see it,
+the following function should be used::
+
+ void post_watch_notification(struct watch_list *wlist,
+ struct watch_notification *n,
+ const struct cred *cred,
+ u64 id);
+
+The notification should be preformatted and a pointer to the header (``n``)
+should be passed in. The notification may be larger than this and the size in
+units of buffer slots is noted in ``n->info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH``.
+
+The ``cred`` struct indicates the credentials of the source (subject) and is
+passed to the LSMs, such as SELinux, to allow or suppress the recording of the
+note in each individual queue according to the credentials of that queue
+(object).
+
+The ``id`` is the ID of the source object (such as the serial number on a key).
+Only watches that have the same ID set in them will see this notification.
+
+
+Watch Sources
+=============
+
+Any particular buffer can be fed from multiple sources. Sources include:
+
+ * WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY
+
+ Notifications of this type indicate changes to keys and keyrings, including
+ the changes of keyring contents or the attributes of keys.
+
+ See Documentation/security/keys/core.rst for more information.
+
+ * WATCH_TYPE_BLOCK_NOTIFY
+
+ Notifications of this type indicate block layer events, such as I/O errors
+ or temporary link loss. Watches of this type are set on a global queue.
+
+
+Event Filtering
+===============
+
+Once a watch queue has been created, a set of filters can be applied to limit
+the events that are received using::
+
+ struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
+ ...
+ };
+ ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter)
+
+The filter description is a variable of type::
+
+ struct watch_notification_filter {
+ __u32 nr_filters;
+ __u32 __reserved;
+ struct watch_notification_type_filter filters[];
+ };
+
+Where "nr_filters" is the number of filters in filters[] and "__reserved"
+should be 0. The "filters" array has elements of the following type::
+
+ struct watch_notification_type_filter {
+ __u32 type;
+ __u32 info_filter;
+ __u32 info_mask;
+ __u32 subtype_filter[8];
+ };
+
+Where:
+
+ * ``type`` is the event type to filter for and should be something like
+ "WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY"
+
+ * ``info_filter`` and ``info_mask`` act as a filter on the info field of the
+ notification record. The notification is only written into the buffer if::
+
+ (watch.info & info_mask) == info_filter
+
+ This could be used, for example, to ignore events that are not exactly on
+ the watched point in a mount tree.
+
+ * ``subtype_filter`` is a bitmask indicating the subtypes that are of
+ interest. Bit 0 of subtype_filter[0] corresponds to subtype 0, bit 1 to
+ subtype 1, and so on.
+
+If the argument to the ioctl() is NULL, then the filters will be removed and
+all events from the watched sources will come through.
+
+
+Waiting For Events
+==================
+
+The file descriptor that holds the buffer may be used with poll() and similar.
+POLLIN and POLLRDNORM are set if the buffer indices differ. POLLERR is set if
+the buffer indices are further apart than the size of the buffer. Wake-up
+events are only generated if the buffer is transitioned from an empty state.
+
+
+Userspace Code Example
+======================
+
+A buffer is created with something like the following::
+
+ fd = open("/dev/watch_queue", O_RDWR);
+
+ #define BUF_SIZE 4
+ ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, BUF_SIZE);
+
+ page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);
+ buf = mmap(NULL, BUF_SIZE * page_size,
+ PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
+
+It can then be set to receive keyring change notifications and device event
+notifications::
+
+ keyctl(KEYCTL_WATCH_KEY, KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fd, 0x01);
+
+ watch_devices(fd, 0x2);
+
+The notifications can then be consumed by something like the following::
+
+ extern void saw_key_change(struct watch_notification *n);
+ extern void saw_block_event(struct watch_notification *n);
+ extern void saw_usb_event(struct watch_notification *n);
+
+ static int consumer(int fd, struct watch_queue_buffer *buf)
+ {
+ struct watch_notification *n;
+ struct pollfd p[1];
+ unsigned int len, head, tail, mask = buf->meta.mask;
+
+ for (;;) {
+ p[0].fd = fd;
+ p[0].events = POLLIN | POLLERR;
+ p[0].revents = 0;
+
+ if (poll(p, 1, -1) == -1 || p[0].revents & POLLERR)
+ goto went_wrong;
+
+ while (head = _atomic_load_acquire(buf->meta.head),
+ tail = buf->meta.tail,
+ tail != head
+ ) {
+ n = &buf->slots[tail & mask];
+ len = (n->info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH) >>
+ WATCH_INFO_LENGTH__SHIFT;
+ if (len == 0)
+ goto went_wrong;
+
+ switch (n->type) {
+ case WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY:
+ saw_key_change(n);
+ break;
+ case WATCH_TYPE_BLOCK_NOTIFY:
+ saw_block_event(n);
+ break;
+ case WATCH_TYPE_USB_NOTIFY:
+ saw_usb_event(n);
+ break;
+ }
+
+ tail += len;
+ _atomic_store_release(buf->meta.tail, tail);
+ }
+ }
+
+ went_wrong:
+ return 0;
+ }
+
+Note the memory barriers when loading the head pointer and storing the tail
+pointer!

Implement a misc device that implements a general notification queue as a ring buffer that can be mmap()'d from userspace. The way this is done is: (1) An application opens the device and indicates the size of the ring buffer that it wants to reserve in pages (this can only be set once): fd = open("/dev/watch_queue", O_RDWR); ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_NR_PAGES, nr_of_pages); (2) The application should then map the pages that the device has reserved. Each instance of the device created by open() allocates separate pages so that maps of different fds don't interfere with one another. Multiple mmap() calls on the same fd, however, will all work together. page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE); mapping_size = nr_of_pages * page_size; char *buf = mmap(NULL, mapping_size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); The ring is divided into 8-byte slots. Entries written into the ring are variable size and can use between 1 and 63 slots. A special entry is maintained in the first two slots of the ring that contains the head and tail pointers. This is skipped when the ring wraps round. Note that multislot entries, therefore, aren't allowed to be broken over the end of the ring, but instead "skip" entries are inserted to pad out the buffer. Each entry has a 1-slot header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer, type-specific flags and meta flags, such as an overrun indicator. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, are attached in additional slots.
