The original WinFsp protocol for shutting down a file system was to issue
an FSP_FSCTL_STOP control code to the fsctl device. This would set the IOQ
to the "stopped" state and would also cancel all active IRP's. Cancelation
of IRP's would sometimes free buffers that may have still been in use by
the user mode file system threads; hence access violation.
To fix this problem a new control code FSP_FSCTL_STOP0 is introduced. The
new file system shutdown protocol is backwards compatible with the original
one and works as follows:
- First the file system process issues an FSP_FSCTL_STOP0 control code which
sets the IOQ to the "stopped" state but does NOT cancel IRP's.
- Then the file system process waits for its dispatcher threads to complete
(see FspFileSystemStopDispatcher).
- Finally the file system process issues an FSP_FSCTL_STOP control code
which stops the (already stopped) IOQ and cancels all IRP's.
According to the FILE_BASIC_INFORMATION doc a file system should not update a file timestamp when it receives a value of -1 in the corresponding time field.
This commit converts a -1 timestamp to a 0 timestamp; this directs a WinFsp file system not to update the corresponding file timestamp.
This commit fixes issue #362
The FSP_FSCTL_QUERY_WINFSP code provides a simple method to determine if
the file system backing a file is a WinFsp file system. To use issue a
DeviceIoControl(Handle, FSP_FSCTL_QUERY_WINFSP, 0, 0, 0, 0, &Bytes, 0)
If the return value is TRUE this is a WinFsp file system.
During CreateProcess/CreateSection Windows locks the image file (using AcquireFileForNtCreateSection),
gets the image file size and then reads the image file. Unfortunately if the file system (erroneously) reads
past the file size, Windows can bugcheck. This allows a faulty or malicious file system to crash Windows.
This commit adds a check in WinFsp to mitigate this problem.
