We should never lock two subdirectories without having taken
->s_vfs_rename_mutex; inode pointer order or not, the "order" proposed
in 28eceeda13 "fs: Lock moved directories" is not transitive, with
the usual consequences.
The rationale for locking renamed subdirectory in all cases was
the possibility of race between rename modifying .. in a subdirectory to
reflect the new parent and another thread modifying the same subdirectory.
For a lot of filesystems that's not a problem, but for some it can lead
to trouble (e.g. the case when short directory contents is kept in the
inode, but creating a file in it might push it across the size limit
and copy its contents into separate data block(s)).
However, we need that only in case when the parent does change -
otherwise ->rename() doesn't need to do anything with .. entry in the
first place. Some instances are lazy and do a tautological update anyway,
but it's really not hard to avoid.
Amended locking rules for rename():
find the parent(s) of source and target
if source and target have the same parent
lock the common parent
else
lock ->s_vfs_rename_mutex
lock both parents, in ancestor-first order; if neither
is an ancestor of another, lock the parent of source
first.
find the source and target.
if source and target have the same parent
if operation is an overwriting rename of a subdirectory
lock the target subdirectory
else
if source is a subdirectory
lock the source
if target is a subdirectory
lock the target
lock non-directories involved, in inode pointer order if both
source and target are such.
That way we are guaranteed that parents are locked (for obvious reasons),
that any renamed non-directory is locked (nfsd relies upon that),
that any victim is locked (emptiness check needs that, among other things)
and subdirectory that changes parent is locked (needed to protect the update
of .. entries). We are also guaranteed that any operation locking more
than one directory either takes ->s_vfs_rename_mutex or locks a parent
followed by its child.

Currently we enter __dentry_kill() with parent (along with the victim
dentry and victim's inode) held locked. Then we
mark dentry refcount as dead
call ->d_prune()
remove dentry from hash
remove it from the parent's list of children
unlock the parent, don't need it from that point on
detach dentry from inode, unlock dentry and drop the inode
(via ->d_iput())
call ->d_release()
regain the lock on dentry
check if it's on a shrink list (in which case freeing its empty husk
has to be left to shrink_dentry_list()) or not (in which case we can free it
ourselves). In the former case, mark it as an empty husk, so that
shrink_dentry_list() would know it can free the sucker.
drop the lock on dentry
... and usually the caller proceeds to drop a reference on the parent,
possibly retaking the lock on it.
That is painful for a bunch of reasons, starting with the need to take locks
out of order, but not limited to that - the parent of positive dentry can
change if we drop its ->d_lock, so getting these locks has to be done with
care. Moreover, as soon as dentry is out of the parent's list of children,
shrink_dcache_for_umount() won't see it anymore, making it appear as if
the parent is inexplicably busy. We do work around that by having
shrink_dentry_list() decrement the parent's refcount first and put it on
shrink list to be evicted once we are done with __dentry_kill() of child,
but that may in some cases lead to ->d_iput() on child called after the
parent got killed. That doesn't happen in cases where in-tree ->d_iput()
instances might want to look at the parent, but that's brittle as hell.
Solution: do removal from the parent's list of children in the very
end of __dentry_kill(). As the result, the callers do not need to
lock the parent and by the time we really need the parent locked,
dentry is negative and is guaranteed not to be moved around.
It does mean that ->d_prune() will be called with parent not locked.
It also means that we might see dentries in process of being torn
down while going through the parent's list of children; those dentries
will be unhashed, negative and with refcount marked dead. In practice,
that's enough for in-tree code that looks through the list of children
to do the right thing as-is. Out-of-tree code might need to be adjusted.
Calling conventions: __dentry_kill(dentry) is called with dentry->d_lock
held, along with ->i_lock of its inode (if any). It either returns
the parent (locked, with refcount decremented to 0) or NULL (if there'd
been no parent or if refcount decrement for parent hadn't reached 0).
lock_for_kill() is adjusted for new requirements - it doesn't touch
the parent's ->d_lock at all.
Callers adjusted. Note that for dput() we don't need to bother with
fast_dput() for the parent - we just need to check retain_dentry()
for it, since its ->d_lock is still held since the moment when
__dentry_kill() had taken it to remove the victim from the list of
children.
The kludge with early decrement of parent's refcount in
shrink_dentry_list() is no longer needed - shrink_dcache_for_umount()
sees the half-killed dentries in the list of children for as long
as they are pinning the parent. They are easily recognized and
accounted for by select_collect(), so we know we are not done yet.
As the result, we always have the expected ordering for ->d_iput()/->d_release()
vs. __dentry_kill() of the parent, no exceptions. Moreover, the current
rules for shrink lists (one must make sure that shrink_dcache_for_umount()
won't happen while any dentries from the superblock in question are on
any shrink lists) are gone - shrink_dcache_for_umount() will do the
right thing in all cases, taking such dentries out. Their empty
husks (memory occupied by struct dentry itself + its external name,
if any) will remain on the shrink lists, but they are no obstacles
to filesystem shutdown. And such husks will get freed as soon as
shrink_dentry_list() of the list they are on gets to them.

Instead of bumping it from 0 to 1, calling retain_dentry(), then
decrementing it back to 0 (with ->d_lock held all the way through),
just leave refcount at 0 through all of that.
It will have a visible effect for ->d_delete() - now it can be
called with refcount 0 instead of 1 and it can no longer play
silly buggers with dropping/regaining ->d_lock. Not that any
in-tree instances tried to (it's pretty hard to get right).
Any out-of-tree ones will have to adjust (assuming they need any
changes).
Note that we do not need to extend rcu-critical area here - we have
verified that refcount is non-negative after having grabbed ->d_lock,
so nobody will be able to free dentry until they get into __dentry_kill(),
which won't happen until they manage to grab ->d_lock.

Pull vfs fanotify fsid updates from Christian Brauner:
"This work is part of the plan to enable fanotify to serve as a drop-in
replacement for inotify. While inotify is availabe on all filesystems,
fanotify currently isn't.
In order to support fanotify on all filesystems two things are needed:
(1) all filesystems need to support AT_HANDLE_FID
(2) all filesystems need to report a non-zero f_fsid
This contains (1) and allows filesystems to encode non-decodable file
handlers for fanotify without implementing any exportfs operations by
encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from i_ino and
i_generation.
Filesystems that want to opt out of encoding non-decodable file ids
for fanotify that don't support NFS export can do so by providing an
empty export_operations struct.
This also partially addresses (2) by generating f_fsid for simple
filesystems as well as freevxfs. Remaining filesystems will be dealt
with by separate patches.
Finally, this contains the patch from the current exportfs maintainers
which moves exportfs under vfs with Chuck, Jeff, and Amir as
maintainers and vfs.git as tree"

There are cases where you want to use an overlayfs mount as a

rootfs is on overlayfs due to composefs, or to make it volatile (via
tmpfs), then you cannot currently store a lowerdir on the rootfs,
because the inner overlayfs will eat all the whiteouts and overlay
xattrs. This means you can't e.g. store on the rootfs a prepared
container image for use with overlayfs.
This adds support for nesting of overlayfs mounts by escaping the

Add new mount options lowerdir+ and datadir+ that can be used to add
layers to lower layers stack one by one.
Unlike the legacy lowerdir mount option, special characters (i.e. colons
and cammas) are not unescaped with these new mount options.
The new mount options can be repeated to compose a large stack of lower
layers, but they may not be mixed with the lagacy lowerdir mount option,
because for displaying lower layers in mountinfo, we do not want to mix
escaped with unescaped lower layers path syntax.
Similar to data-only layer rules with the lowerdir mount option, the
datadir+ option must follow at least one lowerdir+ option and the
lowerdir+ option must not follow the datadir+ option.
If the legacy lowerdir mount option follows lowerdir+ and datadir+
mount options, it overrides them. Sepcifically, calling:
fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", "", 0);
can be used to reset previously setup lower layers.

This release completes the SunRPC thread scheduler work that was
begun in v6.6. The scheduler can now find an svc thread to wake in
constant time and without a list walk. Thanks again to Neil Brown
for this overhaul.
Lorenzo Bianconi contributed infrastructure for a netlink-based
NFSD control plane. The long-term plan is to provide the same
functionality as found in /proc/fs/nfsd, plus some interesting
additions, and then migrate the NFSD user space utilities to
netlink.
A long series to overhaul NFSD's NFSv4 operation encoding was
applied in this release. The goals are to bring this family of
encoding functions in line with the matching NFSv4 decoding
functions and with the NFSv2 and NFSv3 XDR functions, preparing
the way for better memory safety and maintainability.
A further improvement to NFSD's write delegation support was
contributed by Dai Ngo. This adds a CB_GETATTR callback,
enabling the server to retrieve cached size and mtime data from
clients holding write delegations. If the server can retrieve
this information, it does not have to recall the delegation in
some cases.
The usual panoply of bug fixes and minor improvements round out
this release. As always I am grateful to all contributors,
reviewers, and testers.

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
"This release completes the SunRPC thread scheduler work that was begun
in v6.6. The scheduler can now find an svc thread to wake in constant
time and without a list walk. Thanks again to Neil Brown for this
overhaul.
Lorenzo Bianconi contributed infrastructure for a netlink-based NFSD
control plane. The long-term plan is to provide the same functionality
as found in /proc/fs/nfsd, plus some interesting additions, and then
migrate the NFSD user space utilities to netlink.
A long series to overhaul NFSD's NFSv4 operation encoding was applied
in this release. The goals are to bring this family of encoding
functions in line with the matching NFSv4 decoding functions and with
the NFSv2 and NFSv3 XDR functions, preparing the way for better memory
safety and maintainability.
A further improvement to NFSD's write delegation support was
contributed by Dai Ngo. This adds a CB_GETATTR callback, enabling the
server to retrieve cached size and mtime data from clients holding
write delegations. If the server can retrieve this information, it
does not have to recall the delegation in some cases.
The usual panoply of bug fixes and minor improvements round out this
release. As always I am grateful to all contributors, reviewers, and
testers"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Rename and export helpers that get write access to a mount. They
are used in overlayfs to get write access to the upper mount.
- Print the pretty name of the root device on boot failure. This
helps in scenarios where we would usually only print
"unknown-block(1,2)".
- Add an internal SB_I_NOUMASK flag. This is another part in the
endless POSIX ACL saga in a way.
When POSIX ACLs are enabled via SB_POSIXACL the vfs cannot strip
the umask because if the relevant inode has POSIX ACLs set it might
take the umask from there. But if the inode doesn't have any POSIX
ACLs set then we apply the umask in the filesytem itself. So we end
up with:
(1) no SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in vfs
(2) SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in filesystem
The umask semantics associated with SB_POSIXACL allowed filesystems
that don't even support POSIX ACLs at all to raise SB_POSIXACL
purely to avoid umask stripping. That specifically means NFS v4 and
Overlayfs. NFS v4 does it because it delegates this to the server
and Overlayfs because it needs to delegate umask stripping to the
upper filesystem, i.e., the filesystem used as the writable layer.
This went so far that SB_POSIXACL is raised eve on kernels that
don't even have POSIX ACL support at all.
Stop this blatant abuse and add SB_I_NOUMASK which is an internal
superblock flag that filesystems can raise to opt out of umask
handling. That should really only be the two mentioned above. It's
not that we want any filesystems to do this. Ideally we have all
umask handling always in the vfs.
- Make overlayfs use SB_I_NOUMASK too.
- Now that we have SB_I_NOUMASK, stop checking for SB_POSIXACL in
IS_POSIXACL() if the kernel doesn't have support for it. This is a
very old patch but it's only possible to do this now with the wider
cleanup that was done.
- Follow-up work on fake path handling from last cycle. Citing mostly
from Amir:
When overlayfs was first merged, overlayfs files of regular files
and directories, the ones that are installed in file table, had a
"fake" path, namely, f_path is the overlayfs path and f_inode is
the "real" inode on the underlying filesystem.
In v6.5, we took another small step by introducing of the
backing_file container and the file_real_path() helper. This change
allowed vfs and filesystem code to get the "real" path of an
overlayfs backing file. With this change, we were able to make
fsnotify work correctly and report events on the "real" filesystem
objects that were accessed via overlayfs.
This method works fine, but it still leaves the vfs vulnerable to
new code that is not aware of files with fake path. A recent
example is commit db1d1e8b98 ("IMA: use vfs_getattr_nosec to get
the i_version"). This commit uses direct referencing to f_path in
IMA code that otherwise uses file_inode() and file_dentry() to
reference the filesystem objects that it is measuring.
This contains work to switch things around: instead of having
filesystem code opt-in to get the "real" path, have generic code
opt-in for the "fake" path in the few places that it is needed.
Is it far more likely that new filesystems code that does not use
the file_dentry() and file_real_path() helpers will end up causing
crashes or averting LSM/audit rules if we keep the "fake" path
exposed by default.
This change already makes file_dentry() moot, but for now we did
not change this helper just added a WARN_ON() in ovl_d_real() to
catch if we have made any wrong assumptions.
After the dust settles on this change, we can make file_dentry() a
plain accessor and we can drop the inode argument to ->d_real().
- Switch struct file to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This looks like a small
change but it really isn't and I would like to see everyone on
their tippie toes for any possible bugs from this work.
Essentially we've been doing most of what SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for
files since a very long time because of the nasty interactions
between the SCM_RIGHTS file descriptor garbage collection. So
extending it makes a lot of sense but it is a subtle change. There
are almost no places that fiddle with file rcu semantics directly
and the ones that did mess around with struct file internal under
rcu have been made to stop doing that because it really was always
dodgy.
I forgot to put in the link tag for this change and the discussion
in the commit so adding it into the merge message:

Cleanups:
- Various smaller pipe cleanups including the removal of a spin lock
that was only used to protect against writes without pipe_lock()
from O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE aka watch queues. As that was never
implemented remove the additional locking from pipe_write().
- Annotate struct watch_filter with the new __counted_by attribute.
- Clarify do_unlinkat() cleanup so that it doesn't look like an extra
iput() is done that would cause issues.
- Simplify file cleanup when the file has never been opened.
- Use module helper instead of open-coding it.
- Predict error unlikely for stale retry.
- Use WRITE_ONCE() for mount expiry field instead of just commenting
that one hopes the compiler doesn't get smart.
Fixes:
- Fix readahead on block devices.
- Fix writeback when layztime is enabled and inodes whose timestamp
is the only thing that changed reside on wb->b_dirty_time. This
caused excessively large zombie memory cgroup when lazytime was
enabled as such inodes weren't handled fast enough.
- Convert BUG_ON() to WARN_ON_ONCE() in open_last_lookups()"

Rename the default helper for encoding FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles to
generic_encode_ino32_fh() and convert the filesystems that used the
default implementation to use the generic helper explicitly.
After this change, exportfs_encode_inode_fh() no longer has a default
implementation to encode FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles.
This is a step towards allowing filesystems to encode non-decodeable
file handles for fanotify without having to implement any
export_operations.

In recent discussions around some performance improvements in the file
handling area we discussed switching the file cache to rely on
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU which allows us to get rid of call_rcu() based
freeing for files completely. This is a pretty sensitive change overall
but it might actually be worth doing.
The main downside is the subtlety. The other one is that we should
really wait for Jann's patch to land that enables KASAN to handle
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU UAFs. Currently it doesn't but a patch for this
exists.
With SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU objects may be freed and reused multiple times
which requires a few changes. So it isn't sufficient anymore to just
acquire a reference to the file in question under rcu using
atomic_long_inc_not_zero() since the file might have already been
recycled and someone else might have bumped the reference.
In other words, callers might see reference count bumps from newer
users. For this reason it is necessary to verify that the pointer is the
same before and after the reference count increment. This pattern can be
seen in get_file_rcu() and __files_get_rcu().
In addition, it isn't possible to access or check fields in struct file
without first aqcuiring a reference on it. Not doing that was always
very dodgy and it was only usable for non-pointer data in struct file.
With SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU it is necessary that callers first acquire a
reference under rcu or they must hold the files_lock of the fdtable.
Failing to do either one of this is a bug.
Thanks to Jann for pointing out that we need to ensure memory ordering
between reallocations and pointer check by ensuring that all subsequent
loads have a dependency on the second load in get_file_rcu() and
providing a fixup that was folded into this patch.

Master keys can be in one of three states: present, incompletely
removed, and absent (as per FSCRYPT_KEY_STATUS_* used in the UAPI).
Currently, the way that "present" is distinguished from "incompletely
removed" internally is by whether ->mk_secret exists or not.
With extent-based encryption, it will be necessary to allow per-extent
keys to be derived while the master key is incompletely removed, so that
I/O on open files will reliably continue working after removal of the
key has been initiated. (We could allow I/O to sometimes fail in that
case, but that seems problematic for reasons such as writes getting
silently thrown away and diverging from the existing fscrypt semantics.)
Therefore, when the filesystem is using extent-based encryption,
->mk_secret can't be wiped when the key becomes incompletely removed.
As a prerequisite for doing that, this patch makes the "present" state
be tracked using a new field, ->mk_present. No behavior is changed yet.
The basic idea here is borrowed from Josef Bacik's patch
"fscrypt: use a flag to indicate that the master key is being evicted"
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/e86c16dddc049ff065f877d793ad773e4c6bfad9.1696970227.git.josef@toxicpanda.com).
I reimplemented it using a "present" bool instead of an "evicted" flag,
fixed a couple bugs, and tried to update everything to be consistent.
Note: I considered adding a ->mk_status field instead, holding one of
FSCRYPT_KEY_STATUS_*. At first that seemed nice, but it ended up being
more complex (despite simplifying FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_KEY_STATUS),
since it would have introduced redundancy and had weird locking rules.

This patch reverts mostly commit 40595cdc93 ("nfs: block notification

export flag to signal that the "own ->lock" implementation supports
async lock requests. The only main user is DLM that is used by GFS2 and
OCFS2 filesystem. Those implement their own lock() implementation and
return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED as return value. Since commit 40595cdc93
("nfs: block notification on fs with its own ->lock") the DLM

Before commit b36a5780cb ("ovl: modify layer parameter parsing"),
spaces and commas in lowerdir mount option value used to be escaped using

In current upstream, when lowerdir value has a space, it is not escaped
in /proc/mounts, e.g.:
none /mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=l l,upperdir=u,workdir=w 0 0
which results in broken output of the mount utility:
none on /mnt type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=l)
Store the original lowerdir mount options before unescaping and show
them using the same escaping used for seq_show_option() in addition to
escaping the colon separator character.

Until now, fscrypt has always used the filesystem block size as the
granularity of file contents encryption. Two scenarios have come up
where a sub-block granularity of contents encryption would be useful:
1. Inline crypto hardware that only supports a crypto data unit size
that is less than the filesystem block size.
2. Support for direct I/O at a granularity less than the filesystem
block size, for example at the block device's logical block size in
order to match the traditional direct I/O alignment requirement.
(1) first came up with older eMMC inline crypto hardware that only
supports a crypto data unit size of 512 bytes. That specific case
ultimately went away because all systems with that hardware continued
using out of tree code and never actually upgraded to the upstream
inline crypto framework. But, now it's coming back in a new way: some
current UFS controllers only support a data unit size of 4096 bytes, and
there is a proposal to increase the filesystem block size to 16K.
(2) was discussed as a "nice to have" feature, though not essential,
when support for direct I/O on encrypted files was being upstreamed.
Still, the fact that this feature has come up several times does suggest
it would be wise to have available. Therefore, this patch implements it
by using one of the reserved bytes in fscrypt_policy_v2 to allow users
to select a sub-block data unit size. Supported data unit sizes are
powers of 2 between 512 and the filesystem block size, inclusively.
Support is implemented for both the FS-layer and inline crypto cases.
This patch focuses on the basic support for sub-block data units. Some
things are out of scope for this patch but may be addressed later:
- Supporting sub-block data units in combination with
FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_64, in most cases. Unfortunately this
combination usually causes data unit indices to exceed 32 bits, and
thus fscrypt_supported_policy() correctly disallows it. The users who
potentially need this combination are using f2fs. To support it, f2fs
would need to provide an option to slightly reduce its max file size.
- Supporting sub-block data units in combination with
FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_32. This has the same problem
described above, but also it will need special code to make DUN
wraparound still happen on a FS block boundary.
- Supporting use case (2) mentioned above. The encrypted direct I/O
code will need to stop requiring and assuming FS block alignment.
This won't be hard, but it belongs in a separate patch.
- Supporting this feature on filesystems other than ext4 and f2fs.
(Filesystems declare support for it via their fscrypt_operations.)
On UBIFS, sub-block data units don't make sense because UBIFS encrypts
variable-length blocks as a result of compression. CephFS could
support it, but a bit more work would be needed to make the
fscrypt_*_block_inplace functions play nicely with sub-block data
units. I don't think there's a use case for this on CephFS anyway.

fscrypt support to CephFS! The list of things which don't work with
encryption should be fairly short, mostly around the edges: fallocate
(not supported well in CephFS to begin with), copy_file_range (requires
re-encryption), non-default striping patterns.
This was a multi-year effort principally by Jeff Layton with assistance
from Xiubo Li, Luís Henriques and others, including several dependant
changes in the MDS, netfs helper library and fscrypt framework itself.

With madvise and prctl KSM can be enabled for different VMA's. Once it is
enabled we can query how effective KSM is overall. However we cannot
easily query if an individual VMA benefits from KSM.
This commit adds a KSM section to the /prod/<pid>/smaps file. It reports
how many of the pages are KSM pages. Note that KSM-placed zeropages are
not included, only actual KSM pages.
Here is a typical output:

This information also helps with the following workflow:
- First enable KSM for all the VMA's of a process with prctl.
- Then analyze with the above smaps report which VMA's benefit the most
- Change the application (if possible) to add the corresponding madvise
calls for the VMA's that benefit the most

I'm thrilled to announce that the Linux in-kernel NFS server now
offers NFSv4 write delegations. A write delegation enables a client
to cache data and metadata for a single file more aggressively,
reducing network round trips and server workload. Many thanks to Dai
Ngo for contributing this facility, and to Jeff Layton and Neil
Brown for reviewing and testing it.
This release also sees the removal of all support for DES- and
triple-DES-based Kerberos encryption types in the kernel's SunRPC
implementation. These encryption types have been deprecated by the
Internet community for years and are considered insecure. This
change affects both the in-kernel NFS client and server.
The server's UDP and TCP socket transports have now fully adopted
David Howells' new bio_vec iterator so that no more than one
sendmsg() call is needed to transmit each RPC message. In
particular, this helps kTLS optimize record boundaries when sending
RPC-with-TLS replies, and it takes the server a baby step closer to
handling file I/O via folios.
We've begun work on overhauling the SunRPC thread scheduler to
remove a costly linked-list walk when looking for an idle RPC
service thread to wake. The pre-requisites are included in this
release. Thanks to Neil Brown for his ongoing work on this
improvement.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
"We've got some big changes for this release -- I'm very happy to be
landing willy's work to enable large folios for the page cache for
general read and write IOs when the fs can make contiguous space
allocations, and Ritesh's work to track sub-folio dirty state to
eliminate the write amplification problems inherent in using large
folios.
As a bonus, io_uring can now process write completions in the caller's
context instead of bouncing through a workqueue, which should reduce
io latency dramatically. IOWs, XFS should see a nice performance bump
for both IO paths.
Summary:
- Make large writes to the page cache fill sparse parts of the cache
with large folios, then use large memcpy calls for the large folio.
- Track the per-block dirty state of each large folio so that a
buffered write to a single byte on a large folio does not result in

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the super rework that was ready for this cycle. The
first part changes the order of how we open block devices and allocate
superblocks, contains various cleanups, simplifications, and a new
mechanism to wait on superblock state changes.
This unblocks work to ultimately limit the number of writers to a
block device. Jan has already scheduled follow-up work that will be
ready for v6.7 and allows us to restrict the number of writers to a
given block device. That series builds on this work right here.
The second part contains filesystem freezing updates.
Overview:
The generic superblock changes are rougly organized as follows
(ignoring additional minor cleanups):
(1) Removal of the bd_super member from struct block_device.
This was a very odd back pointer to struct super_block with
unclear rules. For all relevant places we have other means to get
the same information so just get rid of this.
(2) Simplify rules for superblock cleanup.
Roughly, everything that is allocated during fs_context
initialization and that's stored in fs_context->s_fs_info needs
to be cleaned up by the fs_context->free() implementation before
the superblock allocation function has been called successfully.
After sget_fc() returned fs_context->s_fs_info has been
transferred to sb->s_fs_info at which point sb->kill_sb() if
fully responsible for cleanup. Adhering to these rules means that
cleanup of sb->s_fs_info in fill_super() is to be avoided as it's
brittle and inconsistent.
Cleanup shouldn't be duplicated between sb->put_super() as
sb->put_super() is only called if sb->s_root has been set aka
when the filesystem has been successfully born (SB_BORN). That
complexity should be avoided.
This also means that block devices are to be closed in
sb->kill_sb() instead of sb->put_super(). More details in the
lower section.
(3) Make it possible to lookup or create a superblock before opening
block devices
There's a subtle dependency on (2) as some filesystems did rely
on fill_super() to be called in order to correctly clean up
sb->s_fs_info. All these filesystems have been fixed.
(4) Switch most filesystem to follow the same logic as the generic
mount code now does as outlined in (3).
(5) Use the superblock as the holder of the block device. We can now
easily go back from block device to owning superblock.
(6) Export and extend the generic fs_holder_ops and use them as
holder ops everywhere and remove the filesystem specific holder
ops.
(7) Call from the block layer up into the filesystem layer when the
block device is removed, allowing to shut down the filesystem
without risk of deadlocks.
(8) Get rid of get_super().
We can now easily go back from the block device to owning
superblock and can call up from the block layer into the
filesystem layer when the device is removed. So no need to wade
through all registered superblock to find the owning superblock
anymore"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.
Features:
- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics
- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice
- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up
- Use synchronous fput for the close system call
Cleanups:
- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper
- Simplify epoll allocation helper
- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio
- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio
- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking
- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus
- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api
- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code
- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs
- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()
Fixes:
- Fix various kernel-doc issues
- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE
- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts
- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs
- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec
- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions
- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.tmpfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull libfs and tmpfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This cycle saw a lot of work for tmpfs that required changes to the
vfs layer. Andrew, Hugh, and I decided to take tmpfs through vfs this
cycle. Things will go back to mm next cycle.
Features
========
- By far the biggest work is the quota support for tmpfs. New tmpfs
quota infrastructure is added to support it and a new QFMT_SHMEM
uapi option is exposed.
This offers user and group quotas to tmpfs (project quotas will be
added later). Similar to other filesystems tmpfs quota are not
supported within user namespaces yet.
- Add support for user xattrs. While tmpfs already supports security
xattrs (security.*) and POSIX ACLs for a long time it lacked
support for user xattrs (user.*). With this pull request tmpfs will
be able to support a limited number of user xattrs.
This is accompanied by a fix (see below) to limit persistent simple
xattr allocations.
- Add support for stable directory offsets. Currently tmpfs relies on
the libfs provided cursor-based mechanism for readdir. This causes
issues when a tmpfs filesystem is exported via NFS.
NFS clients do not open directories. Instead, each server-side
readdir operation opens the directory, reads it, and then closes
it. Since the cursor state for that directory is associated with
the opened file it is discarded after each readdir operation. Such
directory offsets are not just cached by NFS clients but also
various userspace libraries based on these clients.
As it stands there is no way to invalidate the caches when
directory offsets have changed and the whole application depends on
unchanging directory offsets.
At LSFMM we discussed how to solve this problem and decided to
support stable directory offsets. libfs now allows filesystems like
tmpfs to use an xarrary to map a directory offset to a dentry. This
mechanism is currently only used by tmpfs but can be supported by
others as well.
Fixes
=====
- Change persistent simple xattrs allocations in libfs from
GFP_KERNEL to GPF_KERNEL_ACCOUNT so they're subject to memory
cgroup limits. Since this is a change to libfs it affects both
tmpfs and kernfs.
- Correctly verify {g,u}id mount options.
A new filesystem context is created via fsopen() which records the
namespace that becomes the owning namespace of the superblock when
fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE) is called for filesystems that are
mountable in namespaces. However, fsconfig() calls can occur in a
namespace different from the namespace where fsopen() has been
called.
Currently, when fsconfig() is called to set {g,u}id mount options
the requested {g,u}id is mapped into a k{g,u}id according to the
namespace where fsconfig() was called from. The resulting k{g,u}id
is not guaranteed to be resolvable in the namespace of the
filesystem (the one that fsopen() was called in).
This means it's possible for an unprivileged user to create files
owned by any group in a tmpfs mount since it's possible to set the
setid bits on the tmpfs directory.
The contract for {g,u}id mount options and {g,u}id values in
general set from userspace has always been that they are translated
according to the caller's idmapping. In so far, tmpfs has been
doing the correct thing. But since tmpfs is mountable in
unprivileged contexts it is also necessary to verify that the
resulting {k,g}uid is representable in the namespace of the
superblock to avoid such bugs.
The new mount api's cross-namespace delegation abilities are
already widely used. Having talked to a bunch of userspace this is
the most faithful solution with minimal regression risks"

Add a new mount option uuid=auto, which is the default.
If a persistent UUID xattr is found it is used.
Otherwise, an existing ovelrayfs with copied up subdirs in upper dir
that was never mounted with uuid=on retains the null UUID.
A new overlayfs with no copied up subdirs, generates the persistent UUID
on first mount.

With uuid=on, store a persistent uuid in xattr on the upper dir to
give the overlayfs instance a persistent identifier.
This also makes f_fsid persistent and more reliable for reporting
fid info in fanotify events.
uuid=on is not supported on non-upper overlayfs or with upper fs
that does not support xattrs.
Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>
The legacy behavior of ovl_statfs() reports the f_fsid filled by
underlying upper fs. This fsid is not unique among overlayfs instances
on the same upper fs.
With mount option uuid=on, generate a non-persistent uuid per overlayfs
instance and use it as the seed for f_fsid, similar to tmpfs.
This is useful for reporting fanotify events with fid info from different
instances of overlayfs over the same upper fs.
The old behavior of null uuid and upper fs fsid is retained with the
mount option uuid=null, which is the default.
The mount option uuid=off that disables uuid checks in underlying layers
also retains the legacy behavior.

This adds the scaffolding (docs, config, mount options) for supporting
the new digest field in the metacopy xattr. This contains a fs-verity
digest that need to match the fs-verity digest of the lowerdata
file. The mount option "verity" specifies how this xattr is handled.
If you enable verity ("verity=on") all existing xattrs are validated
before use, and during metacopy we generate verity xattr in the upper
metacopy file (if the source file has verity enabled). This means
later accesses can guarantee that the same data is used.
Additionally you can use "verity=require". In this mode all metacopy
files must have a valid verity xattr. For this to work metadata
copy-up must be able to create a verity xattr (so that later accesses
are validated). Therefore, in this mode, if the lower data file
doesn't have fs-verity enabled we fall back to a full copy rather than
a metacopy.
Actual implementation follows in a separate commit.

Enable "user." extended attributes on tmpfs, limiting them by tracking
the space they occupy, and deducting that space from the limited ispace
(unless tmpfs mounted with nr_inodes=0 to leave that ispace unlimited).
tmpfs inodes and simple xattrs are both unswappable, and have to be in
lowmem on a 32-bit highmem kernel: so the ispace limit is appropriate
for xattrs, without any need for a further mount option.
Add simple_xattr_space() to give approximate but deterministic estimate
of the space taken up by each xattr: with simple_xattrs_free() outputting
the space freed if required (but kernfs and even some tmpfs usages do not
require that, so don't waste time on strlen'ing if not needed).
Security and trusted xattrs were already supported: for consistency and
simplicity, account them from the same pool; though there's a small risk
that a tmpfs with enough space before would now be considered too small.
When extended attributes are used, "df -i" does show more IUsed and less
IFree than can be explained by the inodes: document that (manpage later).
xfstests tests/generic which were not run on tmpfs before but now pass:
020 037 062 070 077 097 103 117 337 377 454 486 523 533 611 618 728

All users now just use '->iterate_shared()', which only takes the
directory inode lock for reading.
Filesystems that never got convered to shared mode now instead use a
wrapper that drops the lock, re-takes it in write mode, calls the old
function, and then downgrades the lock back to read mode.
This way the VFS layer and other callers no longer need to care about
filesystems that never got converted to the modern era.
The filesystems that use the new wrapper are ceph, coda, exfat, jfs,
ntfs, ocfs2, overlayfs, and vboxsf.
Honestly, several of them look like they really could just iterate their
directories in shared mode and skip the wrapper entirely, but the point
of this change is to not change semantics or fix filesystems that
haven't been fixed in the last 7+ years, but to finally get rid of the
dual iterators.

The noswap mount option is surely not one of the three options for sizing:
move its description down.
The huge= mount option does not accept numeric values: those are just in
an internal enum. Delete those numbers, and follow the manpage text more
closely (but there's not yet any fadvise() or fcntl() which applies here).
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled is hard to describe, and
barely relevant to mounting a tmpfs: just refer to transhuge.rst (while
still using the words deny and force, to help as informal reminders).

The filesystem ->release_folio method is called under more circumstances
now than when the documentation was written. The second sentence
describing the interpretation of the return value is the wrong polarity
(false indicates failure, not success). And the third sentence is also
wrong (the kernel calls try_to_free_buffers() instead).
So replace the entire paragraph with a detailed description of what the
state of the folio may be, the meaning of the gfp parameter, why the
method is being called and what the filesystem is expected to do.

Userspace can freeze a filesystem using the FIFREEZE ioctl or by
suspending the block device; this state persists until userspace thaws
the filesystem with the FITHAW ioctl or resuming the block device.
Since commit 18e9e5104f ("Introduce freeze_super and thaw_super for
the fsfreeze ioctl") we only allow the first freeze command to succeed.
The kernel may decide that it is necessary to freeze a filesystem for
its own internal purposes, such as suspends in progress, filesystem fsck
activities, or quiescing a device prior to removal. Userspace thaw
commands must never break a kernel freeze, and kernel thaw commands
shouldn't undo userspace's freeze command.
Introduce a couple of freeze holder flags and wire it into the
sb_writers state. One kernel and one userspace freeze are allowed to
coexist at the same time; the filesystem will not thaw until both are
lifted.
I wonder if the f2fs/gfs2 code should be using a kernel freeze here, but
for now we'll use FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE to preserve existing
behaviors.

New hardware extensions implement support for shadow stack memory, such
as x86 Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET). Add a new VM flag to
identify these areas, for example, to be used to properly indicate shadow
stack PTEs to the hardware.
Shadow stack VMA creation will be tightly controlled and limited to
anonymous memory to make the implementation simpler and since that is all
that is required. The solution will rely on pte_mkwrite() to create the
shadow stack PTEs, so it will not be required for vm_get_page_prot() to
learn how to create shadow stack memory. For this reason document that
VM_SHADOW_STACK should not be mixed with VM_SHARED.

Core
----
- Rework the sendpage & splice implementations. Instead of feeding
data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg handlers to support
taking a reference on the data, controlled by a new flag called
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES. Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file
to invoke an additional callback instead of trying to predict what
the right combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is.
Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely.
- Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid.
- Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT.
- Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker.
- Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families.
Protocols
---------
- Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
tcp_rmem[2].
- Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy.
- Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags.
- Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative.
- Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info (MPTCP_FULL_INFO).
- Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have
a full record.
- Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving
the way to issuing ioctls over io_uring.
- Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address.
- Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch.
- PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable.
- Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
(ipconfig).
- Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
(e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge).
- Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets.
- Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
printk level to debug.
- HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto.
- Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4.
- Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7.
BPF
---
- Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used,
or in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
especially those using open-coded iterators.
- Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what
the output buffer *should* be, without writing anything.
- Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers.
- Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper.
- Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands.
- Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
maps as read-only).
- Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo.
- Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are self-explanatory):
- Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
and bpf_dynptr_clone().
- bpf_task_under_cgroup()
- bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
- bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs
Netfilter
---------
- Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
presence of an entry in a map without using the value.
- Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds.
- Allow updating size of a set.
- Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing.
Driver API
----------
- Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
"offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
(i.e. packets coming in and out).
- Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules.
- Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
common helper routines.
- Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
associated with the PCS layer.
- Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
scheduler offload (taprio).
- Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs
to fit into the message.
- Split devlink instance and devlink port operations.

Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook:
"There are three areas of note:
A bunch of strlcpy()->strscpy() conversions ended up living in my tree
since they were either Acked by maintainers for me to carry, or got
ignored for multiple weeks (and were trivial changes).
The compiler option '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' has been enabled
globally, and has been in -next for the entire devel cycle. This
changes compiler diagnostics (though mainly just -Warray-bounds which
is disabled) and potential UBSAN_BOUNDS and FORTIFY _warning_
coverage. In other words, there are no new restrictions, just
potentially new warnings. Any new FORTIFY warnings we've seen have
been fixed (usually in their respective subsystem trees). For more
details, see commit df8fc4e934.
The under-development compiler attribute __counted_by has been added
so that we can start annotating flexible array members with their
associated structure member that tracks the count of flexible array
elements at run-time. It is possible (likely?) that the exact syntax
of the attribute will change before it is finalized, but GCC and Clang
are working together to sort it out. Any changes can be made to the
macro while we continue to add annotations.
As an example of that last case, I have a treewide commit waiting with
such annotations found via Coccinelle:

Several updates for fs/verity/:
- Do all hashing with the shash API instead of with the ahash API. This
simplifies the code and reduces API overhead. It should also make
things slightly easier for XFS's upcoming support for fsverity. It
does drop fsverity's support for off-CPU hash accelerators, but that
support was incomplete and not known to be used.
- Update and export fsverity_get_digest() so that it's ready for
overlayfs's upcoming support for fsverity checking of lowerdata.
- Improve the documentation for builtin signature support.
- Fix a bug in the large folio support.

Merge tag 'v6.5/vfs.rename.locking' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs rename locking updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work from Jan to fix problems with cross-directory
renames originally reported in [1].
To quickly sum it up some filesystems (so far we know at least about
ext4, udf, f2fs, ocfs2, likely also reiserfs, gfs2 and others) need to
lock the directory when it is being renamed into another directory.
This is because we need to update the parent pointer in the directory
in that case and if that races with other operations on the directory,
in particular a conversion from one directory format into another, bad
things can happen.
So far we've done the locking in the filesystem code but recently
Darrick pointed out in [2] that the RENAME_EXCHANGE case was missing.
That one is particularly nasty because RENAME_EXCHANGE can arbitrarily
mix regular files and directories and proper lock ordering is not
achievable in the filesystems alone.
This patch set adds locking into vfs_rename() so that not only parent
directories but also moved inodes, regardless of whether they are
directories or not, are locked when calling into the filesystem.
This means establishing a locking order for unrelated directories. New
helpers are added for this purpose and our documentation is updated to
cover this in detail.
The locking is now actually easier to follow as we now always lock
source and target. We've always locked the target independent of
whether it was a directory or file and we've always locked source if
it was a regular file. The exact details for why this came about can
be found in [3] and [4]"

fsverity builtin signatures (CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES) aren't
the only way to do signatures with fsverity, and they have some major
limitations. Yet, more users have tried to use them, e.g. recently by
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2640. In most cases this seems
to be because users aren't sufficiently familiar with the limitations of
this feature and what the alternatives are.
Therefore, make some updates to the documentation to try to clarify the
properties of this feature and nudge users in the right direction.
Note that the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM, which is not yet
upstream, is planned to use the builtin signatures. (This differs from
IMA, which uses its own signature mechanism.) For that reason, my
earlier patch "fsverity: mark builtin signatures as deprecated"
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221208033548.122704-1-ebiggers@kernel.org),
which marked builtin signatures as "deprecated", was controversial.
This patch therefore stops short of marking the feature as deprecated.
I've also revised the language to focus on better explaining the feature
and what its alternatives are.

Do all the logic to set the mode during mount options parsing and
do not keep the option string around.
Use a constant_table to translate from enum redirect mode to string
in preperation for new mount api option parsing.
The mount option "off" is translated to either "follow" or "nofollow",
depending on the "redirect_always_follow" build/module config, so
in effect, there are only three possible redirect modes.
This results in a minor change to the string that is displayed
in show_options() - when redirect_dir is enabled by default and the user
mounts with the option "redirect_dir=off", instead of displaying the mode
"redirect_dir=off" in show_options(), the displayed mode will be either
"redirect_dir=follow" or "redirect_dir=nofollow", depending on the value
of "redirect_always_follow" build/module config.
The displayed mode reflects the effective mode, so mounting overlayfs
again with the dispalyed redirect_dir option will result with the same
effective and displayed mode.

Introduce the format lowerdir=lower1:lower2::lowerdata1::lowerdata2
where the lower layers on the right of the :: separators are not merged
into the overlayfs merge dirs.
Data-only lower layers are only allowed at the bottom of the stack.
The files in those layers are only meant to be accessible via absolute
redirect from metacopy files in lower layers. Following changes will
implement lookup in the data layers.
This feature was requested for composefs ostree use case, where the
lower data layer should only be accessiable via absolute redirects
from metacopy inodes.
The lower data layers are not required to a have a unique uuid or any
uuid at all, because they are never used to compose the overlayfs inode
st_ino/st_dev.

When a directory is moved to a different directory, some filesystems
(udf, ext4, ocfs2, f2fs, and likely gfs2, reiserfs, and others) need to
update their pointer to the parent and this must not race with other
operations on the directory. Lock the directories when they are moved.
Although not all filesystems need this locking, we perform it in
vfs_rename() because getting the lock ordering right is really difficult
and we don't want to expose these locking details to filesystems.

This is easily fixed by changing the gnu 0-length array into a c99
flexible array. Since this is a uapi structure, we have to be careful
about possible regressions but this one should be fine as they are
equivalent here. While it would break building with ancient gcc versions
that predate c99, it helps building with --std=c99 and -Wpedantic builds
in user space, as well as non-gnu compilers. This means we probably
also want it fixed in stable kernels.

So far, all callers of exportfs_encode_inode_fh(), except for fsnotify's
show_mark_fhandle(), check that filesystem can decode file handles, but
we would like to add more callers that do not require a file handle that

Introduce a flag to explicitly request a file handle that may not to be
decoded later and a wrapper exportfs_encode_fid() that sets this flag
and convert show_mark_fhandle() to use the new wrapper.
This will be used to allow adding fanotify support to filesystems that

Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in
the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct
class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for
all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of
them actually did so.
Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
things:
- kobject logging improvements
- cacheinfo improvements and updates
- obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
- documentation updates
- device property cleanups and const * changes
- firwmare loader dependency fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.

In this round, we've mainly modified to support non-power-of-two zone size,
which is not required for f2fs by design. In order to avoid arch dependency,
we refactored the messy rb_entry structure shared across different extent_cache.
In addition to the improvement, we've also fixed several subtle bugs and
error cases.
Enhancement:
- support non-power-of-two zone size for zoned device
- remove sharing the rb_entry structure in extent cache
- refactor f2fs_gc to call checkpoint in urgent condition
- support iopoll
Bug fix:
- fix potential corruption when moving a directory
- fix to avoid use-after-free for cached IPU bio
- fix the folio private usage
- avoid kernel warnings or panics in the cp_error case
- fix to recover quota data correctly
- fix some bugs in atomic operations
- fix system crash due to lack of free space in LFS
- fix null pointer panic in tracepoint in __replace_atomic_write_block
- fix iostat lock protection
- fix scheduling while atomic in decompression path
- preserve direct write semantics when buffering is forced
- fix to call f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback() in f2fs_write_raw_pages()

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
"In this cycle, sub-page block support for uncompressed files is
available. It's mainly used to enable original signing ('golden')
4k-block images on arm64 with 16/64k pages. In addition, end users
could also use this feature to build a manifest to directly refer to
golden tar data.
Besides, long xattr name prefix support is also introduced in this
cycle to avoid too many xattrs with the same prefix (e.g. overlayfs
xattrs). It's useful for erofs + overlayfs combination (like Composefs
model): the image size is reduced by ~14% and runtime performance is
also slightly improved.
Others are random fixes and cleanups as usual.
Summary:
- Add sub-page block size support for uncompressed files
- Support flattened block device for multi-blob images to be attached

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a pile of various smaller fixes. Most of them aren't
very interesting so this just highlights things worth mentioning:
- Various filesystems contained the same little helper to convert
from the mode of a dentry to the DT_* type of that dentry.
They have now all been switched to rely on the generic
fs_umode_to_dtype() helper. All custom helpers are removed (Jeff)
- Fsnotify now reports ACCESS and MODIFY events for splice
(Chung-Chiang Cheng)
- After converting timerfd a long time ago to rely on
wait_event_interruptible_*() apis, convert eventfd as well. This
removes the complex open-coded wait code (Wen Yang)
- Simplify sysctl registration for devpts, avoiding the declaration
of two tables. Instead, just use a prefixed path with
register_sysctl() (Luis)
- The setattr_should_drop_sgid() helper is now exported so NFS can
use it. By switching NFS to this helper an NFS setgid inheritance
bug is fixed (me)"

The command `ps -ef ` and `top -c` mark kernel thread by '[' and ']', but
sometimes the result is not correct. The task->flags in /proc/$pid/stat
is good, but we need remember the value of PF_KTHREAD is 0x00200000 and
convert dec to hex. If we have no binary program and shell script which
read /proc/$pid/stat, we can know it directly by `cat /proc/$pid/status`.

Set the block size to that specified in on-disk superblock.
Also remove the hard constraint of PAGE_SIZE block size for the
uncompressed device backend. This constraint is temporarily remained
for compressed device and fscache backend, as there is more work needed
to handle the condition where the block size is not equal to PAGE_SIZE.
It is worth noting that the on-disk block size is read prior to
erofs_superblock_csum_verify(), as the read block size is needed in the
latter.
Besides, later we are going to make erofs refer to tar data blobs (which
is 512-byte aligned) for OCI containers, where the block size is 512
bytes. In this case, the 512-byte block size may not be adequate for a
directory to contain enough dirents. To fix this, we are also going to
introduce directory block size independent on the block size.
Due to we have already supported block size smaller than PAGE_SIZE now,
disable all these images with such separated directory block size until
we supported this feature later.

Directory tree repairs are the least complete part of online fsck, due
to the lack of directory parent pointers. However, even without that
feature, we can still make some corrections to the directory tree -- we
can salvage as many directory entries as we can from a damaged
directory, and we can reattach orphaned inodes to the lost+found, just
as xfs_repair does now.

File-based metadata (such as xattrs and directories) can be extremely
large. To reduce the memory requirements and maximize code reuse, it is
very convenient to create a temporary file, use the regular dir/attr
code to store salvaged information, and then atomically swap the extents
between the file being repaired and the temporary file. Record the high
level concepts behind how temporary files and atomic content swapping
should work, and then present some case studies of what the actual
repair functions do.

Writes to an XFS filesystem employ an eventual consistency update model
to break up complex multistep metadata updates into small chained
transactions. This is generally good for performance and scalability
because XFS doesn't need to prepare for enormous transactions, but it
also means that online fsck must be careful not to attempt a fsck action
unless it can be shown that there are no other threads processing a
transaction chain. This part of the design documentation covers the
thinking behind the consistency model and how scrub deals with it.

Currently the memtest results were only presented in dmesg.
When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not
easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption. You have to parse
dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some
time. In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM
status.
In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause
issues for way too long. So I think it makes sense to provide a
monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them.
This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts.

In doing experimentations with shmem having the option to avoid swap
becomes a useful mechanism. One of the *raves* about brd over shmem is
you can avoid swap, but that's not really a good reason to use brd if we
can instead use shmem. Using brd has its own good reasons to exist, but
just because "tmpfs" doesn't let you do that is not a great reason to
avoid it if we can easily add support for it.
I don't add support for reconfiguring incompatible options, but if we
really wanted to we can add support for that.
To avoid swap we use mapping_set_unevictable() upon inode creation, and
put a WARN_ON_ONCE() stop-gap on writepages() for reclaim.

Fix the longstanding implementation limitation that fsverity was only
supported when the Merkle tree block size, filesystem block size, and
PAGE_SIZE were all equal. Specifically, add support for Merkle tree
block sizes less than PAGE_SIZE, and make ext4 support fsverity on
filesystems where the filesystem block size is less than PAGE_SIZE.
Effectively, this means that fsverity can now be used on systems with
non-4K pages, at least on ext4. These changes have been tested using
the verity group of xfstests, newly updated to cover the new code paths.
Also update fs/verity/ to support verifying data from large folios.
There's also a similar patch for fs/crypto/, to support decrypting data
from large folios, which I'm including in this pull request to avoid a
merge conflict between the fscrypt and fsverity branches.
There will be a merge conflict in fs/buffer.c with some of the foliation
work in the mm tree. Please use the merge resolution from linux-next.

Merge tag 'fs.idmapped.v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping
Pull vfs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:
- Last cycle we introduced the dedicated struct mnt_idmap type for
mount idmapping and the required infrastucture in 256c8aed2b ("fs:
introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). As promised in last
cycle's pull request message this converts everything to rely on
struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached
to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy
to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with
namespaces that are relevant on the mount level. Especially for
non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this was a
potential source for bugs.
This finishes the conversion. Instead of passing the plain namespace
around this updates all places that currently take a pointer to a
mnt_userns with a pointer to struct mnt_idmap.
Now that the conversion is done all helpers down to the really
low-level helpers only accept a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments.
Conflating mount and other idmappings will now cause the compiler to
complain loudly thus eliminating the possibility of any bugs. This
makes it impossible for filesystem developers to mix up mount and
filesystem idmappings as they are two distinct types and require
distinct helpers that cannot be used interchangeably.
Everything associated with struct mnt_idmap is moved into a single
separate file. With that change no code can poke around in struct
mnt_idmap. It can only be interacted with through dedicated helpers.
That means all filesystems are and all of the vfs is completely
oblivious to the actual implementation of idmappings.
We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap as we see fit. For
example, we can decouple it completely from namespaces for users that
don't require or don't want to use them at all. We can also extend
the concept of idmappings so we can cover filesystem specific
requirements.
In combination with the vfs{g,u}id_t work we finished in v6.2 this
makes this feature substantially more robust and thus difficult to
implement wrong by a given filesystem and also protects the vfs.
- Enable idmapped mounts for tmpfs and fulfill a longstanding request.
A long-standing request from users had been to make it possible to
create idmapped mounts for tmpfs. For example, to share the host's
tmpfs mount between multiple sandboxes. This is a prerequisite for
some advanced Kubernetes cases. Systemd also has a range of use-cases
to increase service isolation. And there are more users of this.
However, with all of the other work going on this was way down on the
priority list but luckily someone other than ourselves picked this
up.
As usual the patch is tiny as all the infrastructure work had been
done multiple kernel releases ago. In addition to all the tests that
we already have I requested that Rodrigo add a dedicated tmpfs
testsuite for idmapped mounts to xfstests. It is to be included into
xfstests during the v6.3 development cycle. This should add a slew of
additional tests.

The sysfs path for the NFS4 client identfier should start with
the path component of 'nfs' for the kset, and then the 'net'
path component for the netns object, followed by the
'nfs_client' path component for the NFS client kobject,
and ending with 'identifier' for the netns_client_id
kobj_attribute.

Try to make the filesystem-level decryption functions in fs/crypto/
aware of large folios. This includes making fscrypt_decrypt_bio()
support the case where the bio contains large folios, and making
fscrypt_decrypt_pagecache_blocks() take a folio instead of a page.
There's no way to actually test this with large folios yet, but I've
tested that this doesn't cause any regressions.
Note that this patch just handles *decryption*, not encryption which
will be a little more difficult.

Now that the needed changes have been made to fs/buffer.c, ext4 is ready
to support the verity feature when the filesystem block size is less
than the page size. So remove the mount-time check that prevented this.

Make FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY support values of
fsverity_enable_arg::block_size other than PAGE_SIZE.
To make this possible, rework build_merkle_tree(), which was reading
data and hash pages from the file and assuming that they were the same
thing as "blocks".
For reading the data blocks, just replace the direct pagecache access
with __kernel_read(), to naturally read one block at a time.
(A disadvantage of the above is that we lose the two optimizations of
hashing the pagecache pages in-place and forcing the maximum readahead.
That shouldn't be very important, though.)
The hash block reads are a bit more difficult to handle, as the only way
to do them is through fsverity_operations::read_merkle_tree_page().
Instead, let's switch to the single-pass tree construction algorithm
that fsverity-utils uses. This eliminates the need to read back any
hash blocks while the tree is being built, at the small cost of an extra
block-sized memory buffer per Merkle tree level. This is probably what
I should have done originally.
Taken together, the above two changes result in page-size independent
code that is also a bit simpler than what we had before.

Add support for verifying data from verity files whose Merkle tree block
size is less than the page size. The main use case for this is to allow
a single Merkle tree block size to be used across all systems, so that
only one set of fsverity file digests and signatures is needed.
To do this, eliminate various assumptions that the Merkle tree block
size and the page size are the same:
- Make fsverity_verify_page() a wrapper around a new function
fsverity_verify_blocks() which verifies one or more blocks in a page.
- When a Merkle tree block is needed, get the corresponding page and
only verify and use the needed portion. (The Merkle tree continues to
be read and cached in page-sized chunks; that doesn't need to change.)
- When the Merkle tree block size and page size differ, use a bitmap
fsverity_info::hash_block_verified to keep track of which Merkle tree
blocks have been verified, as PageChecked cannot be used directly.

Currently, there is an implementation limit where files can't have more
than 8 Merkle tree levels. With SHA-256 and 4K blocks, this limit is
never reached, since a file would need to be larger than 2**64 bytes to
need 9 levels. However, with SHA-512, 9 levels are needed for files
larger than about 1.15 EB, which is possible on btrfs. Therefore, this
limit technically became reachable when btrfs added fsverity support.
Meanwhile, support for merkle_tree_block_size < PAGE_SIZE will introduce
another implementation limit on file size, resulting from the use of an
in-memory bitmap to track which Merkle tree blocks have been verified.
In any case, currently FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY fails with EINVAL when the
file is too large. This is undocumented, and also ambiguous since
EINVAL can mean other things too. Let's change the error code to EFBIG,
which is much clearer, and document it.

other places (crypto API, wireless, TLS, OpenSSL, ARMv8 CPUs, etc.), it
hasn't been very controversial, and some people have to use it, I don't

Pull VFS acl updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work that builds a dedicated vfs posix acl api.
The origins of this work trace back to v5.19 but it took quite a while
to understand the various filesystem specific implementations in
sufficient detail and also come up with an acceptable solution.
As we discussed and seen multiple times the current state of how posix
acls are handled isn't nice and comes with a lot of problems: The
current way of handling posix acls via the generic xattr api is error
prone, hard to maintain, and type unsafe for the vfs until we call
into the filesystem's dedicated get and set inode operations.
It is already the case that posix acls are special-cased to death all
the way through the vfs. There are an uncounted number of hacks that
operate on the uapi posix acl struct instead of the dedicated vfs
struct posix_acl. And the vfs must be involved in order to interpret
and fixup posix acls before storing them to the backing store, caching
them, reporting them to userspace, or for permission checking.
Currently a range of hacks and duct tape exist to make this work. As
with most things this is really no ones fault it's just something that
happened over time. But the code is hard to understand and difficult
to maintain and one is constantly at risk of introducing bugs and
regressions when having to touch it.
Instead of continuing to hack posix acls through the xattr handlers
this series builds a dedicated posix acl api solely around the get and
set inode operations.
Going forward, the vfs_get_acl(), vfs_remove_acl(), and vfs_set_acl()
helpers must be used in order to interact with posix acls. They
operate directly on the vfs internal struct posix_acl instead of
abusing the uapi posix acl struct as we currently do. In the end this
removes all of the hackiness, makes the codepaths easier to maintain,
and gets us type safety.
This series passes the LTP and xfstests suites without any
regressions. For xfstests the following combinations were tested:
- xfs
- ext4
- btrfs
- overlayfs
- overlayfs on top of idmapped mounts
- orangefs
- (limited) cifs
There's more simplifications for posix acls that we can make in the
future if the basic api has made it.
A few implementation details:
- The series makes sure to retain exactly the same security and
integrity module permission checks. Especially for the integrity
modules this api is a win because right now they convert the uapi
posix acl struct passed to them via a void pointer into the vfs
struct posix_acl format to perform permission checking on the mode.
There's a new dedicated security hook for setting posix acls which
passes the vfs struct posix_acl not a void pointer. Basing checking
on the posix acl stored in the uapi format is really unreliable.
The vfs currently hacks around directly in the uapi struct storing
values that frankly the security and integrity modules can't
correctly interpret as evidenced by bugs we reported and fixed in
this area. It's not necessarily even their fault it's just that the
format we provide to them is sub optimal.
- Some filesystems like 9p and cifs need access to the dentry in
order to get and set posix acls which is why they either only
partially or not even at all implement get and set inode
operations. For example, cifs allows setxattr() and getxattr()
operations but doesn't allow permission checking based on posix
acls because it can't implement a get acl inode operation.
Thus, this patch series updates the set acl inode operation to take
a dentry instead of an inode argument. However, for the get acl
inode operation we can't do this as the old get acl method is
called in e.g., generic_permission() and inode_permission(). These
helpers in turn are called in various filesystem's permission inode
operation. So passing a dentry argument to the old get acl inode
operation would amount to passing a dentry to the permission inode
operation which we shouldn't and probably can't do.
So instead of extending the existing inode operation Christoph
suggested to add a new one. He also requested to ensure that the
get and set acl inode operation taking a dentry are consistently
named. So for this version the old get acl operation is renamed to
->get_inode_acl() and a new ->get_acl() inode operation taking a
dentry is added. With this we can give both 9p and cifs get and set
acl inode operations and in turn remove their complex custom posix
xattr handlers.
In the future I hope to get rid of the inode method duplication but
it isn't like we have never had this situation. Readdir is just one
example. And frankly, the overall gain in type safety and the more
pleasant api wise are simply too big of a benefit to not accept
this duplication for a while.
- We've done a full audit of every codepaths using variant of the
current generic xattr api to get and set posix acls and
surprisingly it isn't that many places. There's of course always a
chance that we might have missed some and if so I'm sure we'll find
them soon enough.
The crucial codepaths to be converted are obviously stacking
filesystems such as ecryptfs and overlayfs.
For a list of all callers currently using generic xattr api helpers
see [2] including comments whether they support posix acls or not.
- The old vfs generic posix acl infrastructure doesn't obey the
create and replace semantics promised on the setxattr(2) manpage.
This patch series doesn't address this. It really is something we
should revisit later though.
The patches are roughly organized as follows:
(1) Change existing set acl inode operation to take a dentry
argument (Intended to be a non-functional change)
(2) Rename existing get acl method (Intended to be a non-functional
change)
(3) Implement get and set acl inode operations for filesystems that
couldn't implement one before because of the missing dentry.
That's mostly 9p and cifs (Intended to be a non-functional
change)
(4) Build posix acl api, i.e., add vfs_get_acl(), vfs_remove_acl(),
and vfs_set_acl() including security and integrity hooks
(Intended to be a non-functional change)
(5) Implement get and set acl inode operations for stacking
filesystems (Intended to be a non-functional change)
(6) Switch posix acl handling in stacking filesystems to new posix
acl api now that all filesystems it can stack upon support it.
(7) Switch vfs to new posix acl api (semantical change)
(8) Remove all now unused helpers
(9) Additional regression fixes reported after we merged this into
linux-next

encouragement and input from Christoph"

This patch introduces a runtime hot/cold data separation method
for f2fs, in order to improve the accuracy for data temperature
classification, reduce the garbage collection overhead after
long-term data updates.
Enhanced hot/cold data separation can record data block update
frequency as "age" of the extent per inode, and take use of the age
info to indicate better temperature type for data block allocation:
- It records total data blocks allocated since mount;
- When file extent has been updated, it calculate the count of data
blocks allocated since last update as the age of the extent;
- Before the data block allocated, it searches for the age info and
chooses the suitable segment for allocation.
Test and result:
- Prepare: create about 30000 files
* 3% for cold files (with cold file extension like .apk, from 3M to 10M)
* 50% for warm files (with random file extension like .FcDxq, from 1K
to 4M)
* 47% for hot files (with hot file extension like .db, from 1K to 256K)
- create(5%)/random update(90%)/delete(5%) the files
* total write amount is about 70G
* fsync will be called for .db files, and buffered write will be used
for other files
The storage of test device is large enough(128G) so that it will not
switch to SSR mode during the test.
Benefit: dirty segment count increment reduce about 14%
- before: Dirty +21110
- after: Dirty +18286

Since commit 9a10064f56 ("mm: add a field to store names for private
anonymous memory"), name for private anonymous memory, but not shared
anonymous, can be set. However, naming shared anonymous memory just as
useful for tracking purposes.
Extend the functionality to be able to set names for shared anon.
There are two ways to create anonymous shared memory, using memfd or
directly via mmap():
1. fd = memfd_create(...)
mem = mmap(..., MAP_SHARED, fd, ...)
2. mem = mmap(..., MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, ...)
In both cases the anonymous shared memory is created the same way by
mapping an unlinked file on tmpfs.
The memfd way allows to give a name for anonymous shared memory, but
not useful when parts of shared memory require to have distinct names.
Example use case: The VMM maps VM memory as anonymous shared memory (not
private because VMM is sandboxed and drivers are running in their own
processes). However, the VM tells back to the VMM how parts of the memory
are actually used by the guest, how each of the segments should be backed
(i.e. 4K pages, 2M pages), and some other information about the segments.
The naming allows us to monitor the effective memory footprint for each
of these segments from the host without looking inside the guest.

Remove the pointless keying argument and associated enum and pass the
fill_super callback and a "bool reconf" instead. Also mark the function
static given that there are no users outside of super.c.

Many monitoring tools include open file count as a metric. Currently the
only way to get this number is to enumerate the files in /proc/pid/fd.
The problem with the current approach is that it does many things people
generally don't care about when they need one number for a metric. In our
tests for cadvisor, which reports open file counts per cgroup, we observed
that reading the number of open files is slow. Out of 35.23% of CPU time
spent in `proc_readfd_common`, we see 29.43% spent in `proc_fill_cache`,
which is responsible for filling dentry info. Some of this extra time is
spinlock contention, but it's a contention for the lock we don't want to
take to begin with.
We considered putting the number of open files in /proc/pid/status.
Unfortunately, counting the number of fds involves iterating the
open_files bitmap, which has a linear complexity in proportion with the
number of open files (bitmap slots really, but it's close). We don't want
to make /proc/pid/status any slower, so instead we put this info in
/proc/pid/fd as a size member of the stat syscall result. Previously the
reported number was zero, so there's very little risk of breaking
anything, while still providing a somewhat logical way to count the open
files with a fallback if it's zero.
RFC for this patch included iterating open fds under RCU. Thanks to Frank
Hofmann for the suggestion to use the bitmap instead.
Previously:
```
$ sudo stat /proc/1/fd | head -n2
File: /proc/1/fd
Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 1024 directory
```
With this patch:
```
$ sudo stat /proc/1/fd | head -n2
File: /proc/1/fd
Size: 65 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 1024 directory
```
Correctness check:
```
$ sudo ls /proc/1/fd | wc -l
65
```
I added the docs for /proc/<pid>/fd while I'm at it.

When the tracer of process is outside of current pid namespace, field
`TracerPid` in /proc/<pid>/status will be 0, too, just like this process
not have been traced.
This is because that function `task_pid_nr_ns` used to get the pid of
tracer will return 0 in this situation.

The hidedotfiles mount option provides the same functionality as

Make editing corrections and updates to sysfs.rst:
- spell "sysfs" consistently (vs. "Sysfs")
- align field names in a struct
- fix some punctuation and grammar
- list more /sys top-level subdirectories
- change 'fuse.txt' to 'fuse.rst' (although I don't see where the
example is)
