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.

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

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

- 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

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.

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.

Update the docs to reflect a bit better why some folks prefer tmpfs over
ramfs and clarify a bit more about the difference between brd ramdisks.
While at it, add THP docs for tmpfs, both the mount options and the sysfs

struct bus_type should never be modified in a sysfs callback as there is
nothing in the structure to modify, and frankly, the structure is almost
never used in a sysfs callback, so mark it as constant to allow struct
bus_type to be moved to read-only memory.

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.

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

Note that this patch just handles *decryption*, not encryption which

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.
