Further, provide a /afs/.@cell symlink to point to the dotted cell share.

Add some checks for the validity of the cell name. It's may get put into a
symlink, so preclude it containing any slashes or "..". Also disallow
starting/ending with a dot. This makes /afs/@cell/ as a symlink less of a
security risk.
Also disallow multiple setting of /proc/net/afs/rootcell for any given
network namespace. Once set, the value may not be changed. This makes it
easier to only create /afs/@cell and /afs/.@cell if there's a rootcell.

The kafs filesystem limits the maximum length of a cell to 256 bytes, but a
problem occurs if someone actually does that: kafs tries to create a
directory under /proc/net/afs/ with the name of the cell, but that fails
with a warning:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9 at fs/proc/generic.c:405
because procfs limits the maximum filename length to 255.
However, the DNS limits the maximum lookup length and, by extension, the
maximum cell name, to 255 less two (length count and trailing NUL).
Fix this by limiting the maximum acceptable cellname length to 253. This
also allows us to be sure we can create the "/afs/.<cell>/" mountpoint too.
Further, split the YFS VL record cell name maximum to be the 256 allowed by
the protocol and ignore the record retrieved by YFSVL.GetCellName if it
exceeds 253.

Change the way netfslib collects read results to do all the collection for
a particular read request using a single work item that walks along the
subrequest queue as subrequests make progress or complete, unlocking folios
progressively rather than doing the unlock in parallel as parallel requests
come in.
The code is remodelled to be more like the write-side code, though only
using a single stream. This makes it more directly comparable and thus
easier to duplicate fixes between the two sides.
This has a number of advantages:
(1) It's simpler. There doesn't need to be a complex donation mechanism
to handle mismatches between the size and alignment of subrequests and
folios. The collector unlocks folios as the subrequests covering each
complete.
(2) It should cause less scheduler overhead as there's a single work item
in play unlocking pages in parallel when a read gets split up into a
lot of subrequests instead of one per subrequest.
Whilst the parallellism is nice in theory, in practice, the vast
majority of loads are sequential reads of the whole file, so
committing a bunch of threads to unlocking folios out of order doesn't
help in those cases.
(3) It should make it easier to implement content decryption. A folio
cannot be decrypted until all the requests that contribute to it have
completed - and, again, most loads are sequential and so, most of the
time, we want to begin decryption sequentially (though it's great if
the decryption can happen in parallel).
There is a disadvantage in that we're losing the ability to decrypt and
unlock things on an as-things-arrive basis which may affect some
applications.

Make FS.FetchData and YFS.FetchData an asynchronous operation in that the
request is queued in AF_RXRPC and then we return to the caller rather than
waiting. Processing of the returning packets is then done inline if it's a
synchronous VFS/VM call (readdir, read_folio, sync DIO, prep for write) or
offloaded to a workqueue if asynchronous VM calls (eg. readahead, async
DIO).
This reduces the chain of workqueues invoking workqueues and cuts out some
of the overhead, driving rxrpc data extraction and netfslib read collection
from a thread that's going to block to completion anyway if possible.
The ->done() call op is also split with ->immediate_cancel() handling the
cancellation on failure to begin the call and ->done() handling the rest.
This means that the AFS async FetchData code doesn't try to terminate the
netfs subrequest twice.

If we manage to begin an async call, but fail to transmit any data on it
due to a signal, we then abort it which causes a race between the
notification of call completion from rxrpc and our attempt to cancel the
notification. The notification will be necessary, however, for async
FetchData to terminate the netfs subrequest.
However, since we get a notification from rxrpc upon completion of a call
(aborted or otherwise), we can just leave it to that.
This leads to calls not getting cleaned up, but appearing in
/proc/net/rxrpc/calls as being aborted with code 6.
Fix this by making the "error_do_abort:" case of afs_make_call() abort the
call and then abandon it to the notification handler.

Now that directory and symlink reads go through netfslib, the afs_read
struct is mostly redundant with almost all data duplicated in the
netfs_io_request and netfs_io_subrequest structs that are also available
any time we're doing a fetch.
Eliminate afs_read by moving the one field we still need there to the

asked for and have to track what remains of that) and using the
netfs_io_subrequest directly instead.

In the AFS ecosystem, directories are just a special type of file that is
downloaded and parsed locally. Download is done by the same mechanism as
ordinary files and the data can be cached. There is one important semantic
restriction on directories over files: the client must download the entire
directory in one go because, for example, the server could fabricate the
contents of the blob on the fly with each download and give a different
image each time.
So that we can cache the directory download, switch AFS directory support
over to using the netfslib single-object API, thereby allowing directory
content to be stored in the local cache.
To make this work, the following changes are made:
(1) A directory's contents are now stored in a folio_queue chain attached
to the afs_vnode (inode) struct rather than its associated pagecache,
though multipage folios are still used to hold the data. The folio
queue is discarded when the directory inode is evicted.
This also helps with the phasing out of ITER_XARRAY.
(2) Various directory operations are made to use and unuse the cache
cookie.
(3) The content checking, content dumping and content iteration are now
performed with a standard iov_iter iterator over the contents of the
folio queue.
(4) Iteration and modification must be done with the vnode's validate_lock
held. In conjunction with (1), this means that the iteration can be
done without the need to lock pages or take extra refs on them, unlike
when accessing ->i_pages.
(5) Convert to using netfs_read_single() to read data.
(6) Provide a ->writepages() to call netfs_writeback_single() to save the
data to the cache according to the VM's scheduling whilst holding the
validate_lock read-locked as (4).
(7) Change local directory image editing functions:
(a) Provide a function to get a specific block by number from the
folio_queue as we can no longer use the i_pages xarray to locate
folios by index. This uses a cursor to remember the current
position as we need to iterate through the directory contents.
The block is kmapped before being returned.
(b) Make the function in (a) extend the directory by an extra folio if
we run out of space.
(c) Raise the check of the block free space counter, for those blocks
that have one, higher in the function to eliminate a call to get a
block.
(d) Remove the page unlocking and putting done during the editing
loops. This is no longer necessary as the folio_queue holds the
references and the pages are no longer in the pagecache.
(e) Mark the inode dirty and pin the cache usage till writeback at the
end of a successful edit.
(8) Don't set the large_folios flag on the inode as we do the allocation
ourselves rather than the VM doing it automatically.
(9) Mark the inode as being a single object that isn't uploaded to the
server.
(10) Enable caching on directories.
(11) Only set the upload key for writeback for regular files.
Notes:
(*) We keep the ->release_folio(), ->invalidate_folio() and
->migrate_folio() ops as we set the mapping pointer on the folio.

Drop the was_async argument from netfs_read_subreq_terminated(). Almost
every caller is either in process context and passes false. Some
filesystems delegate the call to a workqueue to avoid doing the work in
their network message queue parsing thread.
The only exception is netfs_cache_read_terminated() which handles
completion in the cache - which is usually a callback from the backing
filesystem in softirq context, though it can be from process context if an
error occurred. In this case, delegate to a workqueue.

syzkaller reported recursion with a loop of three calls (netfs_rreq_assess,
netfs_retry_reads and netfs_rreq_terminated) hitting the limit of the stack
during an unbuffered or direct I/O read.
There are a number of issues:
(1) There is no limit on the number of retries.
(2) A subrequest is supposed to be abandoned if it does not transfer
anything (NETFS_SREQ_NO_PROGRESS), but that isn't checked under all
circumstances.
(3) The actual root cause, which is this:
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&rreq->nr_outstanding))
netfs_rreq_terminated(rreq, ...);
When we do a retry, we bump the rreq->nr_outstanding counter to
prevent the final cleanup phase running before we've finished
dispatching the retries. The problem is if we hit 0, we have to do
the cleanup phase - but we're in the cleanup phase and end up
repeating the retry cycle, hence the recursion.
Work around the problem by limiting the number of retries. This is based
on Lizhi Xu's patch[1], and makes the following changes:
(1) Replace NETFS_SREQ_NO_PROGRESS with NETFS_SREQ_MADE_PROGRESS and make
the filesystem set it if it managed to read or write at least one byte
of data. Clear this bit before issuing a subrequest.
(2) Add a ->retry_count member to the subrequest and increment it any time
we do a retry.
(3) Remove the NETFS_SREQ_RETRYING flag as it is superfluous with
->retry_count. If the latter is non-zero, we're doing a retry.
(4) Abandon a subrequest if retry_count is non-zero and we made no
progress.
(5) Use ->retry_count in both the write-side and the read-size.
[?] Question: Should I set a hard limit on retry_count in both read and
write? Say it hits 50, we always abandon it. The problem is that
these changes only mitigate the issue. As long as it made at least one
byte of progress, the recursion is still an issue. This patch
mitigates the problem, but does not fix the underlying cause. I have
patches that will do that, but it's an intrusive fix that's currently
pending for the next merge window.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.12-rc6.fixes' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull filesystem fixes from Christian Brauner:
"VFS:
- Fix copy_page_from_iter_atomic() if KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP=y is set
- Add a get_tree_bdev_flags() helper that allows to modify e.g.,
whether errors are logged into the filesystem context during
superblock creation. This is used by erofs to fix a userspace
regression where an error is currently logged when its used on a
regular file which is an new allowed mode in erofs.
netfs:
- Fix the sysfs debug path in the documentation.
- Fix iov_iter_get_pages*() for folio queues by skipping the page
extracation if we're at the end of a folio.
afs:
- Fix moving subdirectories to different parent directory.
autofs:
- Fix handling of AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD ioctl in
validate_dev_ioctl(). The actual ioctl number, not the ioctl
command needs to be checked for autofs"
* tag 'vfs-6.12-rc6.fixes' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
iov_iter: fix copy_page_from_iter_atomic() if KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP
autofs: fix thinko in validate_dev_ioctl()
iov_iter: Fix iov_iter_get_pages*() for folio_queue
afs: Fix missing subdir edit when renamed between parent dirs
doc: correcting the debug path for cachefiles
erofs: use get_tree_bdev_flags() to avoid misleading messages
fs/super.c: introduce get_tree_bdev_flags()
When rename moves an AFS subdirectory between parent directories, the
subdir also needs a bit of editing: the ".." entry needs updating to point
to the new parent (though I don't make use of the info) and the DV needs
incrementing by 1 to reflect the change of content. The server also sends
a callback break notification on the subdirectory if we have one, but we
can take care of recovering the promise next time we access the subdir.
This can be triggered by something like:
mount -t afs %example.com:xfstest.test20 /xfstest.test/
mkdir /xfstest.test/{aaa,bbb,aaa/ccc}
touch /xfstest.test/bbb/ccc/d
mv /xfstest.test/{aaa/ccc,bbb/ccc}
touch /xfstest.test/bbb/ccc/e
When the pathwalk for the second touch hits "ccc", kafs spots that the DV
is incorrect and downloads it again (so the fix is not critical).
Fix this, if the rename target is a directory and the old and new
parents are different, by:
(1) Incrementing the DV number of the target locally.
(2) Editing the ".." entry in the target to refer to its new parent's
vnode ID and uniquifier.

afs_wake_up_async_call() can incur lock recursion. The problem is that it
is called from AF_RXRPC whilst holding the ->notify_lock, but it tries to
take a ref on the afs_call struct in order to pass it to a work queue - but
if the afs_call is already queued, we then have an extraneous ref that must
be put... calling afs_put_call() may call back down into AF_RXRPC through
rxrpc_kernel_shutdown_call(), however, which might try taking the
->notify_lock again.
This case isn't very common, however, so defer it to a workqueue. The oops
looks something like:

In afs_wait_for_operation(), we set transcribe the call responded flag to
the server record that we used after doing the fileserver iteration loop -
but it's possible to exit the loop having had a response from the server
that we've discarded (e.g. it returned an abort or we started receiving
data, but the call didn't complete).
This means that op->server might be NULL, but we don't check that before
attempting to set the server flag.

A return code of 0 from afs_wait_for_one_fs_probe is an indication
that the endpoint state attached to the operation is stale and has
been superseded. In that case the iteration needs to be restarted
so that the newer probe result state gets used.
Failure to do so can result in an tight infinite loop around the
iterate_address label, where all addresses are thought to be responsive
and have been tried, with nothing to refresh the endpoint state.

Improve the efficiency of buffered reads in a number of ways:
(1) Overhaul the algorithm in general so that it's a lot more compact and
split the read submission code between buffered and unbuffered
versions. The unbuffered version can be vastly simplified.
(2) Read-result collection is handed off to a work queue rather than being
done in the I/O thread. Multiple subrequests can be processes
simultaneously.
(3) When a subrequest is collected, any folios it fully spans are
collected and "spare" data on either side is donated to either the
previous or the next subrequest in the sequence.
Notes:
(*) Readahead expansion is massively slows down fio, presumably because it
causes a load of extra allocations, both folio and xarray, up front
before RPC requests can be transmitted.
(*) RDMA with cifs does appear to work, both with SIW and RXE.
(*) PG_private_2-based reading and copy-to-cache is split out into its own
file and altered to use folio_queue. Note that the copy to the cache
now creates a new write transaction against the cache and adds the
folios to be copied into it. This allows it to use part of the
writeback I/O code.

Perform AFS read subrequests in a work item rather than in the calling
thread. For normal buffered reads, this will allow the calling thread to
copy data from the pagecache to the application at the same time as the
demarshalling thread is shovelling data from skbuffs into the pagecache.
This will also allow the RA mark to trigger a new read before we've
finished shovelling the data from the current one.
Note: This would be a bit safer if the FS.FetchData RPC ops returned the
metadata (including the data version number) before returning the data.
This would allow me to flush the pagecache before installing the new data.
In future, it may be possible to asynchronously flush the pagecache either
side of the region being read.

At the end of an kAFS RPC operation, there is an "edit" phase (originally
intended for post-directory modification ops to edit the local image) that
the setattr VFS op uses to fix up the pagecache if the RPC that requested
truncation of a file was successful.
afs_setattr_edit_file() calls truncate_setsize() which sets i_size, expands
the pagecache if needed and truncates the pagecache. The first two of
those, however, are redundant as they've already been done by
afs_setattr_success() under the io_lock and the first is also done under
the callback lock (cb_lock).
Fix afs_setattr_edit_file() to call truncate_pagecache() instead (which is
called by truncate_setsize(), thereby skipping the redundant parts.

If a program is watching a file on a 9p mount, it won't see any change in
size if the file being exported by the server is changed directly in the
source filesystem, presumably because 9p doesn't have change notifications,
and because netfs skips the reads if the file is empty.
Fix this by attempting to read the full size specified when a DIO read is
requested (such as when 9p is operating in unbuffered mode) and dealing
with a short read if the EOF was less than the expected read.
To make this work, filesystems using netfslib must not set
NETFS_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL if performing a DIO read where that read hit the EOF.
I don't want to mandatorily clear this flag in netfslib for DIO because,
say, ceph might make a read from an object that is not completely filled,
but does not reside at the end of file - and so we need to clear the
excess.
This can be tested by watching an empty file over 9p within a VM (such as
in the ktest framework):
while true; do read content; if [ -n "$content" ]; then echo $content; break; fi; done < /host/tmp/foo
then writing something into the empty file. The watcher should immediately
display the file content and break out of the loop. Without this fix, it
remains in the loop indefinitely.

Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the
zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here -
more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of
higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Is anyone reading this stuff? If so, email me!
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are
"mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
option" and
"mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to monitor and
handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare
refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if they
reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps
for much faster reading of vma information. The series is "query VMAs
from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang
improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to
multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not
very useful feature from slab fault injection.

- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability
of cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache
index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of
the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects
here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling
of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in
the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang
has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large
folio userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
self testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
monitor and handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
/proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
is "query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance
Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
related to multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and
not very useful feature from slab fault injection.

folio_file_pos is only needed for mixed usage of page cache and swap
cache, for pure page cache usage, the caller can just use folio_pos
instead.
It can't be a swap cache page here. Swap mapping may only call into fs
through swap_rw and that is not supported for afs. So just drop it and
use folio_pos instead.

Don't cross a mountpoint that explicitly specifies a backup volume
(target is <vol>.backup) when starting from a backup volume.
It it not uncommon to mount a volume's backup directly in the volume
itself. This can cause tools that are not paying attention to get
into a loop mounting the volume onto itself as they attempt to
traverse the tree, leading to a variety of problems.
This doesn't prevent the general case of loops in a sequence of
mountpoints, but addresses a common special case in the same way
as other afs clients.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.10.netfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This reworks the netfslib writeback implementation so that pages read
from the cache are written to the cache through ->writepages(),
thereby allowing the fscache page flag to be retired.
The reworking also:
- builds on top of the new writeback_iter() infrastructure
- makes it possible to use vectored write RPCs as discontiguous
streams of pages can be accommodated
- makes it easier to do simultaneous content crypto and stream
division
- provides support for retrying writes and re-dividing a stream
- replaces the ->launder_folio() op, so that ->writepages() is used
instead
- uses mempools to allocate the netfs_io_request and
netfs_io_subrequest structs to avoid allocation failure in the
writeback path
Some code that uses the fscache page flag is retained for
compatibility purposes with nfs and ceph. The code is switched to
using the synonymous private_2 label instead and marked with
deprecation comments.
The merge commit contains additional details on the new algorithm that
I've left out of here as it would probably be excessively detailed.
On top of the netfslib infrastructure this contains the work to
convert cifs over to netfslib"

Fix the fileserver rotation code in a couple of ways:
(1) op->server_states is an array, not a pointer to a single record, so
fix the places that access it to index it.
(2) In the places that go through an address list to work out which one
has the best priority, fix the loops to skip known failed addresses.
Without this, the rotation algorithm may get stuck on addresses that are
inaccessible or don't respond.
This can be triggered manually by finding a server that advertises a
non-routable address and giving it a higher priority, eg.:
echo "add udp 192.168.0.0/16 3000" >/proc/fs/afs/addr_prefs
if the server, say, includes the address 192.168.7.7 in its address list,
and then attempting to access a volume on that server.
