fanotify filter enables handling fanotify events within the kernel, and
thus saves a trip to the user space. fanotify filter can be useful in
many use cases. For example, if a user is only interested in events for
some files in side a directory, a filter can be used to filter out
irrelevant events.

fanotify filter is attached to fsnotify_group. At most one filter can
be attached to a fsnotify_group. The attach/detach of filter are
controlled by two new ioctls on the fanotify fds: FAN_IOC_ADD_FILTER
and FAN_IOC_DEL_FILTER.

fanotify filter is packaged in a kernel module. In the future, it is
also possible to package fanotify filter in a BPF program. Since loading
modules requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, _loading_ fanotify filter in kernel
modules is limited to CAP_SYS_ADMIN. However, non-SYS_CAP_ADMIN users
can _attach_ filter loaded by sys admin to their fanotify fds. The owner
of the fanotify fitler can use flag FAN_FILTER_F_SYS_ADMIN_ONLY to
make a filter available only to users with CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

To make fanotify filters more flexible, a filter can take arguments at
attach time.

sysfs entry /sys/kernel/fanotify_filter is added to help users know
which fanotify filters are available. At the moment, these files are
added for each filter: flags, desc, and init_args.

It's a shame that we have fanotify knobs at /proc/sys/fs/fanotify/ and
in sysfs, but understand we don't want to make more use of proc for this.

Still I would add the filter files under a new /sys/fs/fanotify/ dir and not
directly under /sys/kernel/

Do we actually need the sleeping rcu protection for calling the hook?
Can regular rcu read side be nested inside srcu read side?

Jan,

I don't remember why srcu is needed since we are not holding it
when waiting for userspace anymore?

1. feels better to opt-in for UNPRIV (and maybe later on) rather than
make it the default.
2. need to check that filter_ops->flags has only "known" flags
3. probably need to add filter_ops->version check in case we want to
change the ABI

The read side is protected with srcu and there is no srcu/rcu delay of freeing.
You will either need something along the lines of
fsnotify_connector_destroy_workfn() with synchronize_srcu()
or use regular rcu delay and read side (assuming that it can be nested inside
srcu read side?).

Thanks,
Amir.

I don't have a strong preference either way. We can create it under
/sys/fs/fanotify if that makes more sense.

I was thinking the filter function can still sleep, for example, to 
read an xattr.

Sure.

Agreed.

I think we can let the author of the filter handle versioning 
inside filter_init function. Many users may not need any logic
for compatibility.

Yeah, we do need a synchronize_srcu() here. I will fix this in 
the next version.
