Subject: [RFC PATCH 22/35] ovl: copy-up on MAP_SHARED
Date:   Thu, 12 Apr 2018 17:08:13 +0200
Message-Id: <20180412150826.20988-23-mszeredi@redhat.com>
In-Reply-To: <20180412150826.20988-1-mszeredi@redhat.com>
References: <20180412150826.20988-1-mszeredi@redhat.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

A corner case of a corner case is when

 - file opened for O_RDONLY
 - which is then memory mapped SHARED
 - file opened for O_WRONLY
 - contents modified
 - contents read back though the shared mapping

Unfortunately it looks very difficult to do anything about the established
shared map after the file is copied up.

Instead, when a read-only file is mapped shared, copy up the file before
actually doing the map.  This may result in unnecessary copy-ups (but so
may copy-up on open(O_RDWR) for exampe).

We can revisit this later if it turns out to be a performance problem in
real life.

+         If this option is enabled then on mapping a file with MAP_SHARED
+	 overlayfs copies up the file in anticipation of it being modified (just
+	 like we copy up the file on O_WRONLY and O_RDWR in anticipation of
+	 modification).  This does not interfere with shared library loading, as
+	 that uses MAP_PRIVATE.  But there might be use cases out there where
+	 this impacts performance and disk usage.
+
+	 This just selects the default, the feature can also be enabled or
+	 disabled in the running kernel or individually on each overlay mount.
+
+	 To get maximally standard compliant behavior, enable this option.
+
+	 To get a maximally backward compatible kernel, disable this option.
+
+	 If unsure, say N.
