9b17cb59a7 fuse: add default_request_timeout and max_request_timeout sysctls
Introduce two new sysctls, "default_request_timeout" and
"max_request_timeout". These control how long (in seconds) a server can
take to reply to a request. If the server does not reply by the timeout,
then the connection will be aborted. The upper bound on these sysctl
values is 65535.

"default_request_timeout" sets the default timeout if no timeout is
specified by the fuse server on mount. 0 (default) indicates no default
timeout should be enforced. If the server did specify a timeout, then
default_request_timeout will be ignored.

"max_request_timeout" sets the max amount of time the server may take to
reply to a request. 0 (default) indicates no maximum timeout. If
max_request_timeout is set and the fuse server attempts to set a
timeout greater than max_request_timeout, the system will use
max_request_timeout as the timeout. Similarly, if default_request_timeout
is greater than max_request_timeout, the system will use
max_request_timeout as the timeout. If the server does not request a
timeout and default_request_timeout is set to 0 but max_request_timeout
is set, then the timeout will be max_request_timeout.

Please note that these timeouts are not 100% precise. The request may
take roughly an extra FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ seconds beyond the set max
timeout due to how it's internally implemented.

$ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout
fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 0

$ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout
tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout: Invalid argument

$ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout
65535

$ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout
fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 65535

$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout
0

$ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout
fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 0

fuse_max_req_timeout]]

2b3933b1e0 fuse: enable dynamic configuration of fuse max pages limit (FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES)
Introduce the capability to dynamically configure the max pages limit
(FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES) through a sysctl. This allows system administrators
to dynamically set the maximum number of pages that can be used for
servicing requests in fuse.

Previously, this is gated by FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES which is statically set
to 256 pages. One result of this is that the buffer size for a write
request is limited to 1 MiB on a 4k-page system.

The default value for this sysctl is the original limit (256 pages).

$ sysctl -a | grep max_pages_limit
fs.fuse.max_pages_limit = 256

$ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit
256

$ echo 1024 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
1024

$ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit
1024

$ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument

$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument

$ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit

vfs: Add a sysctl for automated deletion of dentry
Commit 681ce86235 ("vfs: Delete the associated dentry when deleting a
file") introduced an unconditional deletion of the associated dentry when a
file is removed. However, this led to performance regressions in specific
benchmarks, such as ilebench.sum_operations/s [0], prompting a revert in
commit 4a4be1ad3a ("Revert "vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file"").

This patch seeks to reintroduce the concept conditionally, where the
associated dentry is deleted only when the user explicitly opts for it
during file removal. A new sysctl fs.automated_deletion_of_dentry is
added for this purpose. Its default value is set to 0.

There are practical use cases for this proactive dentry reclamation.
Besides the Elasticsearch use case mentioned in commit 681ce86235,
additional examples have surfaced in our production environment. For
instance, in video rendering services that continuously generate temporary
files, upload them to persistent storage servers, and then delete them, a
large number of negative dentries—serving no useful purpose—accumulate.
Users in such cases would benefit from proactively reclaiming these
negative dentries.

Commit c8c0c239d5 moved struct dentry_stat_t to fs/dcache.c but
did not update its location in Documentation, so update that now.
Also change each struct member from int to long as done in
commit 3942c07ccf.

aadc0cd52f docs: sysctl/fs: re-order, prettify
This brings the text markup in line with sysctl/abi and
sysctl/kernel:

* the entries are ordered alphabetically
* the table of contents is automatically generated
* markup is used as appropriate for constants etc.

The content isn't fully up-to-date but the obsolete entries are gone,
so remove the kernel version mention.

6b2484e13a Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/admin-guide
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
          If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
          return 200 OK and serve the same content:
            Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
