The only remaining user of ->d_real() method is d_real_inode(), which
passed NULL inode argument to get the real data dentry.
There are no longer any users that call ->d_real() with a non-NULL
inode argument for getting a detry from a specific underlying layer.
Remove the inode argument of the method and replace it with an integer
'type' argument, to allow callers to request the real metadata dentry
instead of the real data dentry.
All the current users of d_real_inode() (e.g. uprobe) continue to get
the real data inode. Caller that need to get the real metadata inode
(e.g. IMA/EVM) can use d_inode(d_real(dentry, D_REAL_METADATA)).

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"

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.

Convert to struct mnt_idmap.

conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for

The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic
xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to
interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to
userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to
understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of
making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are
building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode
operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths
easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].
Since some filesystem rely on the dentry being available to them when
setting posix acls (e.g., 9p and cifs) they cannot rely on the old get
acl inode operation to retrieve posix acl and need to implement their
own custom handlers because of that.
In a previous patch we renamed the old get acl inode operation to
->get_inode_acl(). We decided to rename it and implement a new one since
->get_inode_acl() is called generic_permission() and inode_permission()
both of which can be called during an filesystem's ->permission()
handler. So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would have
amounted to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We
avoided that change.
This adds a new ->get_acl() inode operations which takes a dentry
argument which filesystems such as 9p, cifs, and overlayfs can implement
to get posix acls.

The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode
argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access
to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot
simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl()
inode operation is called from:
acl_permission_check()
-> check_acl()
-> get_acl()
which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of
inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are
called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g.,
overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would
amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We
should avoid this unnecessary change.
So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from
->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that
passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the
dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs
which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for
permission checking during lookup can simply not implement
->get_inode_acl().
This is intended to be a non-functional change.

Update the ->set_acl() inode method to take a dentry argument. This
allows all filesystems to rely on ->set_acl().
As far as I can tell all codepaths can be switched to rely on the dentry
instead of just the inode. Note that the original motivation for passing
the dentry separate from the inode instead of just the dentry in the
xattr handlers was because of security modules that call
security_d_instantiate(). This hook is called during
d_instantiate_new(), d_add(), __d_instantiate_anon(), and
d_splice_alias() to initialize the inode's security context and possibly
to set security.* xattrs. Since this only affects security.* xattrs this
is completely irrelevant for posix acls.

Currently the I_DIRTY_TIME will never get set if the inode already has
I_DIRTY_INODE with assumption that it supersedes I_DIRTY_TIME. That's
true, however ext4 will only update the on-disk inode in
->dirty_inode(), not on actual writeback. As a result if the inode
already has I_DIRTY_INODE state by the time we get to
__mark_inode_dirty() only with I_DIRTY_TIME, the time was already filled
into on-disk inode and will not get updated until the next I_DIRTY_INODE
update, which might never come if we crash or get a power failure.
The problem can be reproduced on ext4 by running xfstest generic/622
with -o iversion mount option.
Fix it by allowing I_DIRTY_TIME to be set even if the inode already has
I_DIRTY_INODE. Also make sure that the case is properly handled in
writeback_single_inode() as well. Additionally changes in
xfs_fs_dirty_inode() was made to accommodate for I_DIRTY_TIME in flag.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"Almost all of MM here. A few things are still getting finished off,
reviewed, etc.
- Yang Shi has improved the behaviour of khugepaged collapsing of
readonly file-backed transparent hugepages.
- Johannes Weiner has arranged for zswap memory use to be tracked and
managed on a per-cgroup basis.
- Munchun Song adds a /proc knob ("hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap") for
runtime enablement of the recent huge page vmemmap optimization
feature.
- Baolin Wang contributes a series to fix some issues around hugetlb
pagetable invalidation.
- Zhenwei Pi has fixed some interactions between hwpoisoned pages and
virtualization.
- Tong Tiangen has enabled the use of the presently x86-only
page_table_check debugging feature on arm64 and riscv.
- David Vernet has done some fixup work on the memcg selftests.
- Peter Xu has taught userfaultfd to handle write protection faults
against shmem- and hugetlbfs-backed files.
- More DAMON development from SeongJae Park - adding online tuning of
the feature and support for monitoring of fixed virtual address
ranges. Also easier discovery of which monitoring operations are
available.
- Nadav Amit has done some optimization of TLB flushing during
mprotect().
- Neil Brown continues to labor away at improving our swap-over-NFS
support.
- David Hildenbrand has some fixes to anon page COWing versus
get_user_pages().
- Peng Liu fixed some errors in the core hugetlb code.
- Joao Martins has reduced the amount of memory consumed by
device-dax's compound devmaps.
- Some cleanups of the arch-specific pagemap code from Anshuman
Khandual.
- Muchun Song has found and fixed some errors in the TLB flushing of
transparent hugepages.
- Roman Gushchin has done more work on the memcg selftests.
... and, of course, many smaller fixes and cleanups. Notably, the
customary million cleanup serieses from Miaohe Lin"

Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations
to take a folio instead of a page.
->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and changes the
type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it obvious they're bytes.
->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a similar type change.
->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()
->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the address_space as
an argument.
There are a couple of other misc changes up front that weren't worth
separating into their own pull request.

Add some "big-picture" documentation for read-ahead and polish the code
to make it fit this documentation.
The meaning of ->async_size is clarified to match its name. i.e. Any
request to ->readahead() has a sync part and an async part. The caller
will wait for the sync pages to complete, but will not wait for the
async pages. The first async page is still marked PG_readahead
Note that the current function names page_cache_sync_ra() and
page_cache_async_ra() are misleading. All ra request are partly sync
and partly async, so either part can be empty. A page_cache_sync_ra()
request will usually set ->async_size non-zero, implying it is not all
synchronous.
When a non-zero req_count is passed to page_cache_async_ra(), the
implication is that some prefix of the request is synchronous, though
the calculation made there is incorrect - I haven't tried to fix it.

This replaces ->set_page_dirty(). It returns a bool instead of an int
and takes the address_space as a parameter instead of expecting the
implementations to retrieve the address_space from the page. This is
particularly important for filesystems which use FS_OPS for swap.
