c84bf6dd2b mm: introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback
Patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook", v2.

During the mmap() of a file-backed mapping, we invoke the underlying
driver file's mmap() callback in order to perform driver/file system
initialisation of the underlying VMA.

This has been a source of issues in the past, including a significant
security concern relating to unwinding of error state discovered by Jann
Horn, as fixed in commit 5de195060b ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region()
error path behaviour") which performed the recent, significant, rework of
mmap() as a whole.

However, we have had a fly in the ointment remain - drivers have a great
deal of freedom in the .mmap() hook to manipulate VMA state (as well as
page table state).

This can be problematic, as we can no longer reason sensibly about VMA
state once the call is complete (the ability to do - anything - here does
rather interfere with that).

In addition, callers may choose to do odd or unusual things which might
interfere with subsequent steps in the mmap() process, and it may do so
and then raise an error, requiring very careful unwinding of state about
which we can make no assumptions.

Rather than providing such an open-ended interface, this series provides
an alternative, far more restrictive one - we expose a whitelist of fields
which can be adjusted by the driver, along with immutable state upon which
the driver can make such decisions:

struct vm_area_desc {
	/* Immutable state. */
	struct mm_struct *mm;
	unsigned long start;
	unsigned long end;

	/* Mutable fields. Populated with initial state. */
	pgoff_t pgoff;
	struct file *file;
	vm_flags_t vm_flags;
	pgprot_t page_prot;

	/* Write-only fields. */
	const struct vm_operations_struct *vm_ops;
	void *private_data;
};

The mmap logic then updates the state used to either merge with a VMA or
establish a new VMA based upon this logic.

This is achieved via new file hook .mmap_prepare(), which is, importantly,
invoked very early on in the mmap() process.

If an error arises, we can very simply abort the operation with very
little unwinding of state required.

The existing logic contains another, related, peccadillo - since the
.mmap() callback might do anything, it may also cause a previously
unmergeable VMA to become mergeable with adjacent VMAs.

Right now the logic will retry a merge like this only if the driver
changes VMA flags, and changes them in such a way that a merge might
succeed (that is, the flags are not 'special', that is do not contain any
of the flags specified in VM_SPECIAL).

This has also been the source of a great deal of pain - it's hard to
reason about an .mmap() callback that might do - anything - but it's also
hard to reason about setting up a VMA and writing to the maple tree, only
to do it again utilising a great deal of shared state.

Since .mmap_prepare() sets fields before the first merge is even
attempted, the use of this callback obviates the need for this retry merge
logic.

A driver may only specify .mmap_prepare() or the deprecated .mmap()
callback.  In future we may add futher callbacks beyond .mmap_prepare() to
faciliate all use cass as we convert drivers.

In researching this change, I examined every .mmap() callback, and
discovered only a very few that set VMA state in such a way that a.  the
VMA flags changed and b.  this would be mergeable.

In the majority of cases, it turns out that drivers are mapping kernel
memory and thus ultimately set VM_PFNMAP, VM_MIXEDMAP, or other
unmergeable VM_SPECIAL flags.

Of those that remain I identified a number of cases which are only
applicable in DAX, setting the VM_HUGEPAGE flag:

* dax_mmap()
* erofs_file_mmap()
* ext4_file_mmap()
* xfs_file_mmap()

For this remerge to not occur and to impact users, each of these cases
would require a user to mmap() files using DAX, in parts, immediately
adjacent to one another.

This is a very unlikely usecase and so it does not appear to be worthwhile
to adjust this functionality accordingly.

We can, however, very quickly do so if needed by simply adding an
.mmap_prepare() callback to these as required.

There are two further non-DAX cases I idenitfied:

* orangefs_file_mmap() - Clears VM_RAND_READ if set, replacing with
  VM_SEQ_READ.
* usb_stream_hwdep_mmap() - Sets VM_DONTDUMP.

Both of these cases again seem very unlikely to be mmap()'d immediately
adjacent to one another in a fashion that would result in a merge.

Finally, we are left with a viable case:

* secretmem_mmap() - Set VM_LOCKED, VM_DONTDUMP.

This is viable enough that the mm selftests trigger the logic as a matter
of course.  Therefore, this series replace the .secretmem_mmap() hook with
.secret_mmap_prepare().


This patch (of 3):

Provide a means by which drivers can specify which fields of those
permitted to be changed should be altered to prior to mmap()'ing a range
(which may either result from a merge or from mapping an entirely new
VMA).

Doing so is substantially safer than the existing .mmap() calback which
provides unrestricted access to the part-constructed VMA and permits
drivers and file systems to do 'creative' things which makes it hard to
reason about the state of the VMA after the function returns.

The existing .mmap() callback's freedom has caused a great deal of issues,
especially in error handling, as unwinding the mmap() state has proven to
be non-trivial and caused significant issues in the past, for instance
those addressed in commit 5de195060b ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region()
error path behaviour").

It also necessitates a second attempt at merge once the .mmap() callback
has completed, which has caused issues in the past, is awkward, adds
overhead and is difficult to reason about.

The .mmap_prepare() callback eliminates this requirement, as we can update
fields prior to even attempting the first merge.  It is safer, as we
heavily restrict what can actually be modified, and being invoked very
early in the mmap() process, error handling can be performed safely with
very little unwinding of state required.

The .mmap_prepare() and deprecated .mmap() callbacks are mutually
exclusive, so we permit only one to be invoked at a time.

Update vma userland test stubs to account for changes.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate
Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for
suspend and hibernate.

For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that
they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is
the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did
actually freeze the filesystem.

If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5
and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future)
then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't
just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new
filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which
filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze
reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw.

There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the
filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in
the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the
freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively
freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned
by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for
the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more
code changes.

If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration),
then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already
frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually
happens.

If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may
unexpectedly fail with EBUSY.

So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer
cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

5d894321c4 fs: add atomic write unit max opt to statx
XFS will be able to support large atomic writes (atomic write > 1x block)
in future. This will be achieved by using different operating methods,
depending on the size of the write.

Specifically a new method of operation based in FS atomic extent remapping
will be supported in addition to the current HW offload-based method.

The FS method will generally be appreciably slower performing than the
HW-offload method. However the FS method will be typically able to
contribute to achieving a larger atomic write unit max limit.

XFS will support a hybrid mode, where HW offload method will be used when
possible, i.e. HW offload is used when the length of the write is
supported, and for other times FS-based atomic writes will be used.

As such, there is an atomic write length at which the user may experience
appreciably slower performance.

Advertise this limit in a new statx field, stx_atomic_write_unit_max_opt.

When zero, it means that there is no such performance boundary.

Masks STATX{_ATTR}_WRITE_ATOMIC can be used to get this new field. This is
ok for older kernels which don't support this new field, as they would
report 0 in this field (from zeroing in cp_statx()) already. Furthermore
those older kernels don't support large atomic writes - apart from block
fops, but there would be consistent performance there for atomic writes
in range [unit min, unit max].

fs: add S_ANON_INODE
This makes it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead().

Readahead on anonymous inodes didn't work because they didn't have a
proper mode. Now that they have we need to retain EINVAL being returned
otherwise LTP will fail.

We also need to ensure that ioctls aren't simply fired like they are for
regular files so things like inotify inodes continue to correctly call
their own ioctl handlers as in [1].

fs: allow all writers to be frozen
During freeze/thaw we need to be able to freeze all writers during
suspend/hibernate. Otherwise tasks such as systemd-journald that mmap a
file and write to it will not be frozen after we've already frozen the
filesystem.

This has some risk of not being able to freeze processes in case a
process has acquired SB_FREEZE_PAGEFAULT under mmap_sem or
SB_FREEZE_INTERNAL under some other filesytem specific lock. If the
filesystem is frozen, a task can block on the frozen filesystem with
e.g., mmap_sem held. If some other task then blocks on grabbing that
mmap_sem, hibernation ill fail because it is unable to hibernate a task
holding mmap_sem. This could be fixed by making a range of filesystem
related locks use freezable sleeping. That's impractical and not
warranted just for suspend/hibernate. Assume that this is an infrequent
problem and we've given userspace a way to skip filesystem freezing
through a sysfs file.

Pull vfs mount namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This expands the ability of anonymous mount namespaces:

   - Creating detached mounts from detached mounts

     Currently, detached mounts can only be created from attached
     mounts. This limitaton prevents various use-cases. For example, the
     ability to mount a subdirectory without ever having to make the
     whole filesystem visible first.

     The current permission modelis:

      (1) Check that the caller is privileged over the owning user
          namespace of it's current mount namespace.

      (2) Check that the caller is located in the mount namespace of the
          mount it wants to create a detached copy of.

     While it is not strictly necessary to do it this way it is
     consistently applied in the new mount api. This model will also be
     used when allowing the creation of detached mount from another
     detached mount.

     The (1) requirement can simply be met by performing the same check
     as for the non-detached case, i.e., verify that the caller is
     privileged over its current mount namespace.

     To meet the (2) requirement it must be possible to infer the origin
     mount namespace that the anonymous mount namespace of the detached
     mount was created from.

     The origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount is the mount
     namespace that the mounts that were copied into the anonymous mount
     namespace originate from.

     In order to check the origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount
     namespace the sequence number of the original mount namespace is
     recorded in the anonymous mount namespace.

     With this in place it is possible to perform an equivalent check
     (2') to (2). The origin mount namespace of the anonymous mount
     namespace must be the same as the caller's mount namespace. To
     establish this the sequence number of the caller's mount namespace
     and the origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace are
     compared.

     The caller is always located in a non-anonymous mount namespace
     since anonymous mount namespaces cannot be setns()ed into. The
     caller's mount namespace will thus always have a valid sequence
     number.

     The owning namespace of any mount namespace, anonymous or
     non-anonymous, can never change. A mount attached to a
     non-anonymous mount namespace can never change mount namespace.

     If the sequence number of the non-anonymous mount namespace and the
     origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace match, the
     owning namespaces must match as well.

     Hence, the capability check on the owning namespace of the caller's
     mount namespace ensures that the caller has the ability to copy the
     mount tree.

   - Allow mount detached mounts on detached mounts

     Currently, detached mounts can only be mounted onto attached
     mounts. This limitation makes it impossible to assemble a new
     private rootfs and move it into place. Instead, a detached tree
     must be created, attached, then mounted open and then either moved
     or detached again. Lift this restriction.

     In order to allow mounting detached mounts onto other detached
     mounts the same permission model used for creating detached mounts
     from detached mounts can be used (cf. above).

     Allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts leaves three
     cases to consider:

      (1) The source mount is an attached mount and the target mount is
          a detached mount. This would be equivalent to moving a mount
          between different mount namespaces. A caller could move an
          attached mount to a detached mount. The detached mount can now
          be freely attached to any mount namespace. This changes the
          current delegatioh model significantly for no good reason. So
          this will fail.

      (2) Anonymous mount namespaces are always attached fully, i.e., it
          is not possible to only attach a subtree of an anoymous mount
          namespace. This simplifies the implementation and reasoning.

          Consequently, if the anonymous mount namespace of the source
          detached mount and the target detached mount are the identical
          the mount request will fail.

      (3) The source mount's anonymous mount namespace is different from
          the target mount's anonymous mount namespace.

          In this case the source anonymous mount namespace of the
          source mount tree must be freed after its mounts have been
          moved to the target anonymous mount namespace. The source
          anonymous mount namespace must be empty afterwards.

     By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts a caller
     may do the following:

       fd_tree1 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
       fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/tmp", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)

     fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to two different detached mount trees
     that belong to two different anonymous mount namespace.

     It is important to note that fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 both refer to
     the root of their respective anonymous mount namespaces.

     By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts the
     caller may now do:

         move_mount(fd_tree1, "", fd_tree2, "",
                    MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH | MOVE_MOUNT_T_EMPTY_PATH)

     This will cause the detached mount referred to by fd_tree1 to be
     mounted on top of the detached mount referred to by fd_tree2.

     Thus, the detached mount fd_tree1 is moved from its separate
     anonymous mount namespace into fd_tree2's anonymous mount
     namespace.

     It also means that while fd_tree2 continues to refer to the root of
     its respective anonymous mount namespace fd_tree1 doesn't anymore.

     This has the consequence that only fd_tree2 can be moved to another
     anonymous or non-anonymous mount namespace. Moving fd_tree1 will
     now fail as fd_tree1 doesn't refer to the root of an anoymous mount
     namespace anymore.

     Now fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to separate detached mount trees
     referring to the same anonymous mount namespace.

     This is conceptually fine. The new mount api does allow for this to
     happen already via:

       mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt
       mkdir -p /mnt/A
       mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt/A

       fd_tree3 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE | AT_RECURSIVE)
       fd_tree4 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt/A", 0)

     Both fd_tree3 and fd_tree4 refer to two different detached mount
     trees but both detached mount trees refer to the same anonymous
     mount namespace. An as with fd_tree1 and fd_tree2, only fd_tree3
     may be moved another mount namespace as fd_tree3 refers to the root
     of the anonymous mount namespace just while fd_tree4 doesn't.

     However, there's an important difference between the
     fd_tree3/fd_tree4 and the fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example.

     Closing fd_tree4 and releasing the respective struct file will have
     no further effect on fd_tree3's detached mount tree.

     However, closing fd_tree3 will cause the mount tree and the
     respective anonymous mount namespace to be destroyed causing the
     detached mount tree of fd_tree4 to be invalid for further mounting.

     By allowing to mount detached mounts on detached mounts as in the
     fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example both struct files will affect each other.

     Both fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to struct files that have
     FMODE_NEED_UNMOUNT set.

     To handle this we use the fact that @fd_tree1 will have a parent
     mount once it has been attached to @fd_tree2.

     When dissolve_on_fput() is called the mount that has been passed in
     will refer to the root of the anonymous mount namespace. If it
     doesn't it would mean that mounts are leaked. So before allowing to
     mount detached mounts onto detached mounts this would be a bug.

     Now that detached mounts can be mounted onto detached mounts it
     just means that the mount has been attached to another anonymous
     mount namespace and thus dissolve_on_fput() must not unmount the
     mount tree or free the anonymous mount namespace as the file
     referring to the root of the namespace hasn't been closed yet.

     If it had been closed yet it would be obvious because the mount
     namespace would be NULL, i.e., the @fd_tree1 would have already
     been unmounted. If @fd_tree1 hasn't been unmounted yet and has a
     parent mount it is safe to skip any cleanup as closing @fd_tree2
     will take care of all cleanup operations.

   - Allow mount propagation for detached mount trees

     In commit ee2e3f5062 ("mount: fix mounting of detached mounts
     onto targets that reside on shared mounts") I fixed a bug where
     propagating the source mount tree of an anonymous mount namespace
     into a target mount tree of a non-anonymous mount namespace could
     be used to trigger an integer overflow in the non-anonymous mount
     namespace causing any new mounts to fail.

     The cause of this was that the propagation algorithm was unable to
     recognize mounts from the source mount tree that were already
     propagated into the target mount tree and then reappeared as
     propagation targets when walking the destination propagation mount
     tree.

     When fixing this I disabled mount propagation into anonymous mount
     namespaces. Make it possible for anonymous mount namespace to
     receive mount propagation events correctly. This is now also a
     correctness issue now that we allow mounting detached mount trees
     onto detached mount trees.

     Mark the source anonymous mount namespace with MNTNS_PROPAGATING
     indicating that all mounts belonging to this mount namespace are
     currently in the process of being propagated and make the
     propagation algorithm discard those if they appear as propagation
     targets"

bdev: add back PAGE_SIZE block size validation for sb_set_blocksize()
The commit titled "block/bdev: lift block size restrictions to 64k"
lifted the block layer's max supported block size to 64k inside the
helper blk_validate_block_size() now that we support large folios.
However in lifting the block size we also removed the silly use
cases many filesystems have to use sb_set_blocksize() to *verify*
that the block size <= PAGE_SIZE. The call to sb_set_blocksize() was
used to check the block size <= PAGE_SIZE since historically we've
always supported userspace to create for example 64k block size
filesystems even on 4k page size systems, but what we didn't allow
was mounting them. Older filesystems have been using the check with
sb_set_blocksize() for years.

While, we could argue that such checks should be filesystem specific,
there are much more users of sb_set_blocksize() than LBS enabled
filesystem on upstream, so just do the easier thing and bring back
the PAGE_SIZE check for sb_set_blocksize() users and only skip it
for LBS enabled filesystems.

This will ensure that tests such as generic/466 when run in a loop
against say, ext4, won't try to try to actually mount a filesystem with
a block size larger than your filesystem supports given your PAGE_SIZE
and in the worst case crash.

VFS: Change vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry.
vfs_mkdir() does not guarantee to leave the child dentry hashed or make
it positive on success, and in many such cases the filesystem had to use
a different dentry which it can now return.

This patch changes vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry provided by the
filesystems which is hashed and positive when provided.  This reduces
the number of cases where the resulting dentry is not positive to a
handful which don't deserve extra efforts.

The only callers of vfs_mkdir() which are interested in the resulting
inode are in-kernel filesystem clients: cachefiles, nfsd, smb/server.
The only filesystems that don't reliably provide the inode are:
- kernfs, tracefs which these clients are unlikely to be interested in
- cifs in some configurations would need to do a lookup to find the
  created inode, but doesn't.  cifs cannot be exported via NFS, is
  unlikely to be used by cachefiles, and smb/server only has a soft
  requirement for the inode, so this is unlikely to be a problem in
  practice.
- hostfs, nfs, cifs may need to do a lookup (rarely for NFS) and it is
  possible for a race to make that lookup fail.  Actual failure
  is unlikely and providing callers handle negative dentries graceful
  they will fail-safe.

So this patch removes the lookup code in nfsd and smb/server and adjusts
them to fail safe if a negative dentry is provided:
- cache-files already fails safe by restarting the task from the
  top - it still does with this change, though it no longer calls
  cachefiles_put_directory() as that will crash if the dentry is
  negative.
- nfsd reports "Server-fault" which it what it used to do if the lookup
  failed. This will never happen on any file-systems that it can actually
  export, so this is of no consequence.  I removed the fh_update()
  call as that is not needed and out-of-place.  A subsequent
  nfsd_create_setattr() call will call fh_update() when needed.
- smb/server only wants the inode to call ksmbd_smb_inherit_owner()
  which updates ->i_uid (without calling notify_change() or similar)
  which can be safely skipping on cifs (I hope).

If a different dentry is returned, the first one is put.  If necessary
the fact that it is new can be determined by comparing pointers.  A new
dentry will certainly have a new pointer (as the old is put after the
new is obtained).
Similarly if an error is returned (via ERR_PTR()) the original dentry is
put.

fs: place f_ref to 3rd cache line in struct file to resolve false sharing

Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *
Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g.  on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns.  For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.

This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes.  Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.

This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races.  Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.

To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
  NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
  ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
  non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in

This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations.  Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.

Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:

- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
  the name to get inode information.  Races could result in this
  returning something different. Note that this lookup is
  non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid.  Placing the
  lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
  has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
  operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
  the dentry.  This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
  to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.

The recommendation to use
    d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice.  A planned future patch will
change this.

open: Fix return type of several functions from long to int
Fix the return type of several functions from long to int to match its actu
al behavior. These functions only return int values. This change improves
type consistency across the filesystem code and aligns the function signatu
re with its existing implementation and usage.

fuse: don't truncate cached, mutated symlink
Fuse allows the value of a symlink to change and this property is exploited
by some filesystems (e.g. CVMFS).

It has been observed, that sometimes after changing the symlink contents,
the value is truncated to the old size.

This is caused by fuse_getattr() racing with fuse_reverse_inval_inode().
fuse_reverse_inval_inode() updates the fuse_inode's attr_version, which
results in fuse_change_attributes() exiting before updating the cached
attributes

This is okay, as the cached attributes remain invalid and the next call to
fuse_change_attributes() will likely update the inode with the correct
values.

The reason this causes problems is that cached symlinks will be
returned through page_get_link(), which truncates the symlink to
inode->i_size.  This is correct for filesystems that don't mutate
symlinks, but in this case it causes bad behavior.

The solution is to just remove this truncation.  This can cause a
regression in a filesystem that relies on supplying a symlink larger than
the file size, but this is unlikely.  If that happens we'd need to make
this behavior conditional.

9e28059d56 ext4: introduce linear search for dentries
This patch addresses an issue where some files in case-insensitive
directories become inaccessible due to changes in how the kernel
function, utf8_casefold(), generates case-folded strings from the
commit 5c26d2f1d3 ("unicode: Don't special case ignorable code
points").

There are good reasons why this change should be made; it's actually
quite stupid that Unicode seems to think that the characters ❤ and ❤️
should be casefolded.  Unfortimately because of the backwards
compatibility issue, this commit was reverted in 231825b2e1.

This problem is addressed by instituting a brute-force linear fallback
if a lookup fails on case-folded directory, which does result in a
performance hit when looking up files affected by the changing how
thekernel treats ignorable Uniode characters, or when attempting to
look up non-existent file names.  So this fallback can be disabled by
setting an encoding flag if in the future, the system administrator or
the manufacturer of a mobile handset or tablet can be sure that there
was no opportunity for a kernel to insert file names with incompatible
encodings.

vfs: sanity check the length passed to inode_set_cached_link()
This costs a strlen() call when instatianating a symlink.

Preferably it would be hidden behind VFS_WARN_ON (or compatible), but
there is no such facility at the moment. With the facility in place the
call can be patched out in production kernels.

In the meantime, since the cost is being paid unconditionally, use the
result to a fixup the bad caller.

This is not expected to persist in the long run (tm).

Sample splat:
bad length passed for symlink [/tmp/syz-imagegen43743633/file0/file0] (got 131109, expected 37)

fsnotify: use accessor to set FMODE_NONOTIFY_*
The FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits are a 2-bits mode.  Open coding manipulation
of those bits is risky.  Use an accessor file_set_fsnotify_mode() to
set the mode.

Rename file_set_fsnotify_mode() => file_set_fsnotify_mode_from_watchers()

  which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold
  any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace
  handler.

  The new pre-content event is available only for users with global
  CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify
  functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure
  the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the
  system.

  Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has
  been improved and now file->f_mode encodes whether pre-content event
  needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants
  pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file->f_mode
  check. As a bonus this also removes the checks whether the old
  FS_ACCESS event needs to be generated from the fast path. Also the
  place where the event is generated during page fault has been moved so
  now filemap_fault() generates the event if and only if there is no
  uptodate folio in the page cache.

  Also we have dropped FS_PRE_MODIFY event as current real-world users
  of the pre-content functionality don't really use it so let's start
  with the minimal useful feature set"

Pull vfs libfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This improves the stable directory offset behavior in various ways.

  Stable offsets are needed so that NFS can reliably read directories on
  filesystems such as tmpfs:

   - Improve the end-of-directory detection

     According to getdents(3), the d_off field in each returned
     directory entry points to the next entry in the directory. The
     d_off field in the last returned entry in the readdir buffer must
     contain a valid offset value, but if it points to an actual
     directory entry, then readdir/getdents can loop.

     Introduce a specific fixed offset value that is placed in the d_off
     field of the last entry in a directory. Some user space
     applications assume that the EOD offset value is larger than the
     offsets of real directory entries, so the largest valid offset
     value is reserved for this purpose. This new value is never
     allocated by simple_offset_add().

     When ->iterate_dir() returns, getdents{64} inserts the ctx->pos
     value into the d_off field of the last valid entry in the readdir
     buffer. When it hits EOD, offset_readdir() sets ctx->pos to the EOD
     offset value so the last entry is updated to point to the EOD
     marker.

     When trying to read the entry at the EOD offset, offset_readdir()
     terminates immediately.

   - Rely on d_children to iterate stable offset directories

     Instead of using the mtree to emit entries in the order of their
     offset values, use it only to map incoming ctx->pos to a starting
     entry. Then use the directory's d_children list, which is already
     maintained properly by the dcache, to find the next child to emit.

   - Narrow the range of directory offset values returned by
     simple_offset_add() to 3 .. (S32_MAX - 1) on all platforms. This
     means the allocation behavior is identical on 32-bit systems,
     64-bit systems, and 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels. The new
     range still permits over 2 billion concurrent entries per
     directory.

   - Return ENOSPC when the directory offset range is exhausted. Hitting
     this error is almost impossible though.

   - Remove the simple_offset_empty() helper"

Revert "libfs: Add simple_offset_empty()"
simple_empty() and simple_offset_empty() perform the same task.
The latter's use as a canary to find bugs has not found any new
issues. A subsequent patch will remove the use of the mtree for
iterating directory contents, so revert back to using a similar
mechanism for determining whether a directory is indeed empty.

Only one such mechanism is ever needed.

vfs: support caching symlink lengths in inodes
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about 1.5%
speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4.

Filesystems opt in by calling inode_set_cached_link() when creating an
inode.

The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as i_devices,
thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more space.

Churn-wise the current readlink_copy() helper is patched to accept the
size instead of calculating it.

0357ef03c9 fs: don't block write during exec on pre-content watched files
Commit 2a010c4128 ("fs: don't block i_writecount during exec") removed
the legacy behavior of getting ETXTBSY on attempt to open and executable
file for write while it is being executed.

This commit was reverted because an application that depends on this
legacy behavior was broken by the change.

We need to allow HSM writing into executable files while executed to
fill their content on-the-fly.

To that end, disable the ETXTBSY legacy behavior for files that are
watched by pre-content events.

This change is not expected to cause regressions with existing systems
which do not have any pre-content event listeners.

f156524e5d fsnotify: introduce pre-content permission events
The new FS_PRE_ACCESS permission event is similar to FS_ACCESS_PERM,
but it meant for a different use case of filling file content before
access to a file range, so it has slightly different semantics.

Generate FS_PRE_ACCESS/FS_ACCESS_PERM as two seperate events, so content
scanners could inspect the content filled by pre-content event handler.

Unlike FS_ACCESS_PERM, FS_PRE_ACCESS is also called before a file is
modified by syscalls as write() and fallocate().

FS_ACCESS_PERM is reported also on blockdev and pipes, but the new
pre-content events are only reported for regular files and dirs.

The pre-content events are meant to be used by hierarchical storage
managers that want to fill the content of files on first access.

There are some specific requirements from filesystems that could
be used with pre-content events, so add a flag for fs to opt-in
for pre-content events explicitly before they can be used.

a94204f4d4 fsnotify: opt-in for permission events at file open time
Legacy inotify/fanotify listeners can add watches for events on inode,
parent or mount and expect to get events (e.g. FS_MODIFY) on files that
were already open at the time of setting up the watches.

fanotify permission events are typically used by Anti-malware sofware,
that is watching the entire mount and it is not common to have more that
one Anti-malware engine installed on a system.

To reduce the overhead of the fsnotify_file_perm() hooks on every file
access, relax the semantics of the legacy FAN_ACCESS_PERM event to generate
events only if there were *any* permission event listeners on the
filesystem at the time that the file was opened.

The new semantic is implemented by extending the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit into
two FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits, that are used to store a mode for which of the
events types to report.

This is going to apply to the new fanotify pre-content events in order
to reduce the cost of the new pre-content event vfs hooks.

[Thanks to Bert Karwatzki <spasswolf@web.de> for reporting a bug in this
code with CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS disabled]

Pull tmpfs case folding updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This adds case-insensitive support for tmpfs.

  The work contained in here adds support for case-insensitive file
  names lookups in tmpfs. The main difference from other casefold
  filesystems is that tmpfs has no information on disk, just on RAM, so
  we can't use mkfs to create a case-insensitive tmpfs. For this
  implementation, there's a mount option for casefolding. The rest of
  the patchset follows a similar approach as ext4 and f2fs.

  The use case for this feature is similar to the use case for ext4, to
  better support compatibility layers (like Wine), particularly in
  combination with sandboxing/container tools (like Flatpak).

  Those containerization tools can share a subset of the host filesystem
  with an application. In the container, the root directory and any
  parent directories required for a shared directory are on tmpfs, with
  the shared directories bind-mounted into the container's view of the
  filesystem.

  If the host filesystem is using case-insensitive directories, then the
  application can do lookups inside those directories in a
  case-insensitive way, without this needing to be implemented in
  user-space. However, if the host is only sharing a subset of a
  case-insensitive directory with the application, then the parent
  directories of the mount point will be part of the container's root
  tmpfs. When the application tries to do case-insensitive lookups of
  those parent directories on a case-sensitive tmpfs, the lookup will
  fail"

 "This contains changes the changes for files for this cycle:

   - Introduce a new reference counting mechanism for files.

     As atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a try_cmpxchg() loop
     it has O(N^2) behaviour under contention with N concurrent
     operations and it is in a hot path in __fget_files_rcu().

     The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an
     unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make
     this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in
     question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow
     protection.

     However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory
     barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and
     also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts
     of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack.

     This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic
     library.

     This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent
     improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads.

     via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that
     contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8%
     and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160.

   - Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to
     lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid
     once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're
     always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing

     the files_struct at that point.

   - Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it.

   - Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files().

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks

     Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
     locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
     that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
     NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients

     This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
     still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock

     It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
     kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
     because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
     only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
     lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
     their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
     not define its own lock() file operation

     However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
     handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
     signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
     for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
     now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
     exported over NFS

     Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem
     and grooms the way for future uses by both filesystems and lock
     managers alike

   - Add a sysctl to delete the dentry when a file is removed instead of
     making it a negative 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, prompting a revert in commit
     4a4be1ad3a ("Revert "vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
     deleting a file""). This reintroduces the concept conditionally
     through a sysctl

   - Expand the statmount() system call:

       * Report the filesystem subtype in a new fs_subtype field to
         e.g., report fuse filesystem subtypes

       * Report the superblock source in a new sb_source field

       * Add a new way to return filesystem specific mount options in an
         option array that returns filesystem specific mount options
         separated by zero bytes and unescaped. This allows caller's to
         retrieve filesystem specific mount options and immediately pass
         them to e.g., fsconfig() without having to unescape or split
         them

       * Report security (LSM) specific mount options in a separate
         security option array. We don't lump them together with
         filesystem specific mount options as security mount options are
         generic and most users aren't interested in them

         The format is the same as for the filesystem specific mount
         option array

   - Support relative paths in fsconfig()'s FSCONFIG_SET_STRING command

   - Optimize acl_permission_check() to avoid costly {g,u}id ownership
     checks if possible

   - Use smp_mb__after_spinlock() to avoid full smp_mb() in evict()

   - Add synchronous wakeup support for ep_poll_callback.

     Currently, epoll only uses wake_up() to wake up task. But sometimes
     there are epoll users which want to use the synchronous wakeup flag
     to give a hint to the scheduler, e.g., the Android binder driver.
     So add a wake_up_sync() define, and use wake_up_sync() when sync is
     true in ep_poll_callback()

  Fixes:

   - Fix kernel documentation for inode_insert5() and iget5_locked()

   - Annotate racy epoll check on file->f_ep

   - Make F_DUPFD_QUERY associative

   - Avoid filename buffer overrun in initramfs

   - Don't let statmount() return empty strings

   - Add a cond_resched() to dump_user_range() to avoid hogging the CPU

   - Don't query the device logical blocksize multiple times for hfsplus

   - Make filemap_read() check that the offset is positive or zero

  Cleanups:

   - Various typo fixes

   - Cleanup wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode()

   - Add __releases annotation to wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode()

   - Add hugetlbfs tracepoints

   - Fix various vfs kernel doc parameters

   - Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio

   - Replace one-element array with flexible array member in freevxfs

   - Use idiomatic atomic64_inc_return() in alloc_mnt_ns()"

Pull vfs multigrain timestamps from Christian Brauner:
 "This is another try at implementing multigrain timestamps. This time
  with significant help from the timekeeping maintainers to reduce the
  performance impact.

  Thomas provided a base branch that contains the required timekeeping
  interfaces for the VFS. It serves as the base for the multi-grain
  timestamp work:

   - Multigrain timestamps allow the kernel to use fine-grained
     timestamps when an inode's attributes is being actively observed
     via ->getattr(). With this support, it's possible for a file to get
     a fine-grained timestamp, and another modified after it to get a
     coarse-grained stamp that is earlier than the fine-grained time. If
     this happens then the files can appear to have been modified in
     reverse order, which breaks VFS ordering guarantees.

     To prevent this, a floor value is maintained for multigrain
     timestamps. Whenever a fine-grained timestamp is handed out, record
     it, and when later coarse-grained stamps are handed out, ensure
     they are not earlier than that value. If the coarse-grained
     timestamp is earlier than the fine-grained floor, return the floor
     value instead.

     The timekeeper changes add a static singleton atomic64_t into
     timekeeper.c that is used to keep track of the latest fine-grained
     time ever handed out. This is tracked as a monotonic ktime_t value
     to ensure that it isn't affected by clock jumps. Because it is
     updated at different times than the rest of the timekeeper object,
     the floor value is managed independently of the timekeeper via a
     cmpxchg() operation, and sits on its own cacheline.

     Two new public timekeeper interfaces are added:

      (1) ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64_mg() fills a timespec64 with the
          later of the coarse-grained clock and the floor time

      (2) ktime_get_real_ts64_mg() gets the fine-grained clock value,
          and tries to swap it into the floor. A timespec64 is filled
          with the result.

   - The VFS has always used coarse-grained timestamps when updating the
     ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing
     filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around
     1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.

     Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting
     via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of
     changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to
     help the client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with
     NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a
     change attribute and are subject to the same problems with
     timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with
     timestamps (e.g backup applications).

     If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would
     improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the
     underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata
     updates.

     This adds a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are
     being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in
     inode->i_ctime_nsec as a flag that indicates whether the current
     timestamps have been queried via stat() or the like. When it's set,
     we allow the kernel to use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's
     necessary to make the ctime show a different value.

     This solves the problem of being able to distinguish the timestamp
     between updates, but introduces a new problem: it's now possible
     for a file being changed to get a fine-grained timestamp. A file
     that is altered just a bit later can then get a coarse-grained one
     that appears older than the earlier fine-grained time. This
     violates timestamp ordering guarantees.

     This is where the earlier mentioned timkeeping interfaces help. A
     global monotonic atomic64_t value is kept that acts as a timestamp
     floor. When we go to stamp a file, we first get the latter of the
     current floor value and the current coarse-grained time. If the
     inode ctime hasn't been queried then we just attempt to stamp it
     with that value.

     If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse
     time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, then we accept
     that value. If it isn't, then we get a fine-grained time and try to
     swap that into the global floor. Whether that succeeds or fails, we
     take the resulting floor time, convert it to realtime and try to
     swap that into the ctime.

     We take the result of the ctime swap whether it succeeds or fails,
     since either is just as valid.

     Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag.
     Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same
     floor value as multigrain filesystems)"

fs: reduce pointer chasing in is_mgtime() test
The is_mgtime test checks whether the FS_MGTIME flag is set in the
fstype. To get there from the inode though, we have to dereference 3
pointers.

Add a new IOP_MGTIME flag, and have inode_init_always() set that flag
when the fstype flag is set. Then, make is_mgtime test for IOP_MGTIME
instead.

fs: port files to file_ref
Port files to rely on file_ref reference to improve scaling and gain
overflow protection.

- We continue to WARN during get_file() in case a file that is already
  marked dead is revived as get_file() is only valid if the caller
  already holds a reference to the file. This hasn't changed just the
  check changes.

- The semantics for epoll and ttm's dmabuf usage have changed. Both
  epoll and ttm synchronize with __fput() to prevent the underlying file
  from beeing freed.

  (1) epoll

      Explaining epoll is straightforward using a simple diagram.
      Essentially, the mutex of the epoll instance needs to be taken in both
      __fput() and around epi_fget() preventing the file from being freed
      while it is polled or preventing the file from being resurrected.

          CPU1                                   CPU2
          fput(file)
          -> __fput(file)
             -> eventpoll_release(file)
                -> eventpoll_release_file(file)
                                                 mutex_lock(&ep->mtx)
                                                 epi_item_poll()
                                                 -> epi_fget()
                                                    -> file_ref_get(file)
                                                 mutex_unlock(&ep->mtx)
                   mutex_lock(&ep->mtx);
                   __ep_remove()
                   mutex_unlock(&ep->mtx);
             -> kmem_cache_free(file)

  (2) ttm dmabuf

      This explanation is a bit more involved. A regular dmabuf file stashed
      the dmabuf in file->private_data and the file in dmabuf->file:

          file->private_data = dmabuf;
          dmabuf->file = file;

      The generic release method of a dmabuf file handles file specific
      things:

          f_op->release::dma_buf_file_release()

      while the generic dentry release method of a dmabuf handles dmabuf
      freeing including driver specific things:

          dentry->d_release::dma_buf_release()

      During ttm dmabuf initialization in ttm_object_device_init() the ttm
      driver copies the provided struct dma_buf_ops into a private location:

          struct ttm_object_device {
                  spinlock_t object_lock;
                  struct dma_buf_ops ops;
                  void (*dmabuf_release)(struct dma_buf *dma_buf);
                  struct idr idr;
          };

          ttm_object_device_init(const struct dma_buf_ops *ops)
          {
                  // copy original dma_buf_ops in private location
                  tdev->ops = *ops;

                  // stash the release method of the original struct dma_buf_ops
                  tdev->dmabuf_release = tdev->ops.release;

                  // override the release method in the copy of the struct dma_buf_ops
                  // with ttm's own dmabuf release method
                  tdev->ops.release = ttm_prime_dmabuf_release;
          }

      When a new dmabuf is created the struct dma_buf_ops with the overriden
      release method set to ttm_prime_dmabuf_release is passed in exp_info.ops:

          DEFINE_DMA_BUF_EXPORT_INFO(exp_info);
          exp_info.ops = &tdev->ops;
          exp_info.size = prime->size;
          exp_info.flags = flags;
          exp_info.priv = prime;

      The call to dma_buf_export() then sets

          mutex_lock_interruptible(&prime->mutex);
          dma_buf = dma_buf_export(&exp_info)
          {
                  dmabuf->ops = exp_info->ops;
          }
          mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);

      which creates a new dmabuf file and then install a file descriptor to
      it in the callers file descriptor table:

          ret = dma_buf_fd(dma_buf, flags);

      When that dmabuf file is closed we now get:

          fput(file)
          -> __fput(file)
             -> f_op->release::dma_buf_file_release()
             -> dput()
                -> d_op->d_release::dma_buf_release()
                   -> dmabuf->ops->release::ttm_prime_dmabuf_release()
                      mutex_lock(&prime->mutex);
                      if (prime->dma_buf == dma_buf)
                            prime->dma_buf = NULL;
                      mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);

      Where we can see that prime->dma_buf is set to NULL. So when we have
      the following diagram:

          CPU1                                                          CPU2
          fput(file)
          -> __fput(file)
             -> f_op->release::dma_buf_file_release()
             -> dput()
                -> d_op->d_release::dma_buf_release()
                   -> dmabuf->ops->release::ttm_prime_dmabuf_release()
                                                                        ttm_prime_handle_to_fd()
                                                                        mutex_lock_interruptible(&prime->mutex)
                                                                        dma_buf = prime->dma_buf
                                                                        dma_buf && get_dma_buf_unless_doomed(dma_buf)
                                                                        -> file_ref_get(dma_buf->file)
                                                                        mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);

                      mutex_lock(&prime->mutex);
                      if (prime->dma_buf == dma_buf)
                            prime->dma_buf = NULL;
                      mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);
             -> kmem_cache_free(file)

      The logic of the mechanism is the same as for epoll: sync with
      __fput() preventing the file from being freed. Here the
      synchronization happens through the ttm instance's prime->mutex.
      Basically, the lifetime of the dma_buf and the file are tighly
      coupled.

  Both (1) and (2) used to call atomic_inc_not_zero() to check whether
  the file has already been marked dead and then refuse to revive it.

  This is only safe because both (1) and (2) sync with __fput() and thus
  prevent kmem_cache_free() on the file being called and thus prevent
  the file from being immediately recycled due to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU.

  Both (1) and (2) have been ported from atomic_inc_not_zero() to
  file_ref_get(). That means a file that is already in the process of
  being marked as FILE_REF_DEAD:

  file_ref_put()
  cnt = atomic_long_dec_return()
  -> __file_ref_put(cnt)
     if (cnt == FIlE_REF_NOREF)
             atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_release(cnt, FILE_REF_DEAD)

  can be revived again:

  CPU1                                                             CPU2
  file_ref_put()
  cnt = atomic_long_dec_return()
  -> __file_ref_put(cnt)
     if (cnt == FIlE_REF_NOREF)
                                                                   file_ref_get()
                                                                   // Brings reference back to FILE_REF_ONEREF
                                                                   atomic_long_add_negative()
             atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_release(cnt, FILE_REF_DEAD)

  This is fine and inherent to the file_ref_get()/file_ref_put()
  semantics. For both (1) and (2) this is safe because __fput() is
  prevented from making progress if file_ref_get() fails due to the
  aforementioned synchronization mechanisms.

  Two cases need to be considered that affect both (1) epoll and (2) ttm
  dmabuf:

   (i) fput()'s file_ref_put() and marks the file as FILE_REF_NOREF but
       before that fput() can mark the file as FILE_REF_DEAD someone
       manages to sneak in a file_ref_get() and brings the refcount back
       from FILE_REF_NOREF to FILE_REF_ONEREF. In that case the original
       fput() doesn't call __fput(). For epoll the poll will finish and
       for ttm dmabuf the file can be used again. For ttm dambuf this is
       actually an advantage because it avoids immediately allocating
       a new dmabuf object.

       CPU1                                                             CPU2
       file_ref_put()
       cnt = atomic_long_dec_return()
       -> __file_ref_put(cnt)
          if (cnt == FIlE_REF_NOREF)
                                                                        file_ref_get()
                                                                        // Brings reference back to FILE_REF_ONEREF
                                                                        atomic_long_add_negative()
                  atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_release(cnt, FILE_REF_DEAD)

  (ii) fput()'s file_ref_put() marks the file FILE_REF_NOREF and
       also suceeds in actually marking it FILE_REF_DEAD and then calls
       into __fput() to free the file.

       When either (1) or (2) call file_ref_get() they fail as
       atomic_long_add_negative() will return true.

       At the same time, both (1) and (2) all file_ref_get() under
       mutexes that __fput() must also acquire preventing
       kmem_cache_free() from freeing the file.

  So while this might be treated as a change in semantics for (1) and
  (2) it really isn't. It if should end up causing issues this can be
  fixed by adding a helper that does something like:

  long cnt = atomic_long_read(&ref->refcnt);
  do {
          if (cnt < 0)
                  return false;
  } while (!atomic_long_try_cmpxchg(&ref->refcnt, &cnt, cnt + 1));
  return true;

  which would block FILE_REF_NOREF to FILE_REF_ONEREF transitions.

- Jann correctly pointed out that kmem_cache_zalloc() cannot be used
  anymore once files have been ported to file_ref_t.

  The kmem_cache_zalloc() call will memset() the whole struct file to
  zero when it is reallocated. This will also set file->f_ref to zero
  which mens that a concurrent file_ref_get() can return true:

  CPU1                            CPU2
                                  __get_file_rcu()
                                    rcu_dereference_raw()
  close()
    [frees file]
  alloc_empty_file()
    kmem_cache_zalloc()
      [reallocates same file]
      memset(..., 0, ...)
                                    file_ref_get()
                                      [increments 0->1, returns true]
    init_file()
      file_ref_init(..., 1)
        [sets to 0]
                                    rcu_dereference_raw()
                                    fput()
                                      file_ref_put()
                                        [decrements 0->FILE_REF_NOREF, frees file]
    [UAF]

   causing a concurrent __get_file_rcu() call to acquire a reference to
   the file that is about to be reallocated and immediately freeing it
   on realizing that it has been recycled. This causes a UAF for the
   task that reallocated/recycled the file.

   This is prevented by switching from kmem_cache_zalloc() to
   kmem_cache_alloc() and initializing the fields manually. With
   file->f_ref initialized last.

   Note that a memset() also isn't guaranteed to atomically update an
   unsigned long so it's theoretically possible to see torn and
   therefore bogus counter values.

e896474fe4 getname_maybe_null() - the third variant of pathname copy-in
Semantics used by statx(2) (and later *xattrat(2)): without AT_EMPTY_PATH
it's standard getname() (i.e. ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) on empty string,
ERR_PTR(-EFAULT) on NULL), with AT_EMPTY_PATH both empty string and
NULL are accepted.

Calling conventions: getname_maybe_null(user_pointer, flags) returns
	* pointer to struct filename when non-empty string had been
successfully read
	* ERR_PTR(...) on error
	* NULL if an empty string or NULL pointer had been given
with AT_EMPTY_PATH in the flags argument.

It tries to avoid allocation in the last case; it's not always
able to do so, in which case the temporary struct filename instance
is freed and NULL returned anyway.

Fast path is inlined.

c3be7ebbbc fs/block: Check for IOCB_DIRECT in generic_atomic_write_valid()
Currently FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE is set if the bdev can atomic write and
the file is open for direct IO. This does not work if the file is not
opened for direct IO, yet fcntl(O_DIRECT) is used on the fd later.

Change to check for direct IO on a per-IO basis in
generic_atomic_write_valid(). Since we want to report -EOPNOTSUPP for
non-direct IO for an atomic write, change to return an error code.

Relocate the block fops atomic write checks to the common write path, as to
catch non-direct IO.

Merge patch series "timekeeping/fs: multigrain timestamp redux"
Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> says:

The VFS has always used coarse-grained timestamps when updating the
ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing
filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around 1
per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.

Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of
exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are
subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other
applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g backup
applications).

If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve the
situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.

What we need is a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are
being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in inode->i_ctime_nsec
as a flag that indicates whether the current timestamps have been
queried via stat() or the like. When it's set, we allow the kernel to
use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's necessary to make the ctime show
a different value.

This solves the problem of being able to distinguish the timestamp
between updates, but introduces a new problem: it's now possible for a
file being changed to get a fine-grained timestamp. A file that is
altered just a bit later can then get a coarse-grained one that appears
older than the earlier fine-grained time. This violates timestamp
ordering guarantees.

To remedy this, keep a global monotonic atomic64_t value that acts as a
timestamp floor.  When we go to stamp a file, we first get the latter of
the current floor value and the current coarse-grained time. If the
inode ctime hasn't been queried then we just attempt to stamp it with
that value.

If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse time
is later than the existing ctime. If it is, then we accept that value.
If it isn't, then we get a fine-grained time and try to swap that into
the global floor. Whether that succeeds or fails, we take the resulting
floor time, convert it to realtime and try to swap that into the ctime.

We take the result of the ctime swap whether it succeeds or fails, since
either is just as valid.

Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag.
Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same floor
value as multigrain filesystems).

fs: handle delegated timestamps in setattr_copy_mgtime
An update to the inode ctime typically requires the latest clock
value possible. The exception to this rule is when there is a nfsd write
delegation and the server is proxying timestamps from the client.

When nfsd gets a CB_GETATTR response, update the timestamp value in the
inode to the values that the client is tracking. The client doesn't send
a ctime value (since that's always determined by the exported
filesystem), but it can send a mtime value. In the case where it does,
update the ctime to a value commensurate with that instead of the
current time.

If ATTR_DELEG is set, then use ia_ctime value instead of setting the
timestamp to the current time.

With the addition of delegated timestamps, the server may receive a
request to update only the atime, which doesn't involve a ctime update.
Trust the ATTR_CTIME flag in the update and only update the ctime when
it's set.

9897713fe1 bcachefs: do not use PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM
Patch series "remove PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM" v3.


This patch (of 2):

bch2_new_inode relies on PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM to try to allocate a new
inode to achieve GFP_NOWAIT semantic while holding locks. If this
allocation fails it will drop locks and use GFP_NOFS allocation context.

We would like to drop PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM because it is really
dangerous to use if the caller doesn't control the full call chain with
this flag set. E.g. if any of the function down the chain needed
GFP_NOFAIL request the PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM would override this and
cause unexpected failure.

While this is not the case in this particular case using the scoped gfp
semantic is not really needed bacause we can easily pus the allocation
context down the chain without too much clutter.

Merge patch series "Fixup NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks"
Benjamin Coddington <bcodding@redhat.com> says:

Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their locking more
robust when exported over NFS.  Unfortunately, part of that work caused both
NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send
lock notifications to clients.

This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will still
poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock, but now that I've
noticed it I can't help but try to fix it because there are big advantages
for setups that might depend on timely lock notifications, and we've
supported that as a feature for a long time.

Its important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their kernel threads
inside filesystem's file_lock implementations because that can produce
deadlocks.  We used to make sure of this by only trusting that
posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking lock calls asynchronously,
so the lock managers would only setup their file_lock requests for async
callbacks if the filesystem did not define its own lock() file operation.

However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started signalling this
behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check for also trusting
posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so now most filesystems no
longer produce lock notifications when exported over NFS.

I tried to fix this by simply including the old check for lock(), but the
resulting include mess and layering violations was more than I could accept.
There's a much cleaner way presented here using an fop_flag, which while
potentially flag-greedy, greatly simplifies the problem and grooms the
way for future uses by both filesystems and lock managers alike.

cb787f4ac0 [tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out
no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b144
("fs: remove no_llseek")

To quote that commit,

  At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

  git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
	sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
  done

  would do it.

Unfortunately, that hadn't been done.  Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form

b3f391fddf bcachefs changes for 6.12-rc1
rcu_pending, btree key cache rework: this solves lock contenting in the
 key cache, eliminating the biggest source of the srcu lock hold time
 warnings, and drastically improving performance on some metadata heavy
 workloads - on multithreaded creates we're now 3-4x faster than xfs.
 
 We're now using an rhashtable instead of the system inode hash table;
 this is another significant performance improvement on multithreaded
 metadata workloads, eliminating more lock contention.
 
 for_each_btree_key_in_subvolume_upto(): new helper for iterating over
 keys within a specific subvolume, eliminating a lot of open coded
 "subvolume_get_snapshot()" and also fixing another source of srcu lock
 time warnings, by running each loop iteration in its own transaction (as
 the existing for_each_btree_key() does).
 
 More work on btree_trans locking asserts; we now assert that we don't
 hold btree node locks when trans->locked is false, which is important
 because we don't use lockdep for tracking individual btree node locks.
 
 Some cleanups and improvements in the bset.c btree node lookup code,
 from Alan.
 
 Rework of btree node pinning, which we use in backpointers fsck. The old
 hacky implementation, where the shrinker just skipped over nodes in the
 pinned range, was causing OOMs; instead we now use another shrinker with
 a much higher seeks number for pinned nodes.
 
 Rebalance now uses BCH_WRITE_ONLY_SPECIFIED_DEVS; this fixes an issue
 where rebalance would sometimes fall back to allocating from the full
 filesystem, which is not what we want when it's trying to move data to a
 specific target.
 
 Use __GFP_ACCOUNT, GFP_RECLAIMABLE for btree node, key cache
 allocations.
 
 Idmap mounts are now supported - Hongbo.
 
 Rename whiteouts are now supported - Hongbo.
 
 Erasure coding can now handle devices being marked as failed, or
 forcibly removed. We still need the evacuate path for erasure coding,
 but it's getting very close to ready for people to start using.
 
 Status, and when will we be taking off experimental:
 ----------------------------------------------------
 
 Going by critical, user facing bugs getting found and fixed, we're
 nearly there. There are a couple key items that need to be finished
 before we can take off the experimental label:
 
 - The end-user experience is still pretty painful when the root
   filesystem needs a fsck; we need some form of limited self healing so
   that necessary repair gets run automatically. Errors (by type) are
   recorded in the superblock, so what we need to do next is convert
   remaining inconsistent() errors to fsck() errors (so that all runtime
   inconsistencies are logged in the superblock), and we need to go
   through the list of fsck errors and classify them by which fsck passes
   are needed to repair them.
 
 - We need comprehensive torture testing for all our repair paths, to
   shake out remaining bugs there. Thomas has been working on the tooling
   for this, so this is coming soonish.
 
 Slightly less critical items:
 
 - We need to improve the end-user experience for degraded mounts: right
   now, a degraded root filesystem means dropping to an initramfs shell
   or somehow inputting mount options manually (we don't want to allow
   degraded mounts without some form of user input, except on unattended
   servers) - we need the mount helper to prompt the user to allow
   mounting degraded, and make sure this works with systemd.
 
 - Scalabiity: we have users running 100TB+ filesystems, and that's
   effectively the limit right now due to fsck times. We have some
   reworks in the pipeline to address this, we're aiming to make petabyte
   sized filesystems practical.

Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This is the work to cleanup and shrink struct file significantly.

  Right now, (focusing on x86) struct file is 232 bytes. After this
  series struct file will be 184 bytes aka 3 cacheline and a spare 8
  bytes for future extensions at the end of the struct.

  With struct file being as ubiquitous as it is this should make a
  difference for file heavy workloads and allow further optimizations in
  the future.

   - struct fown_struct was embedded into struct file letting it take up
     32 bytes in total when really it shouldn't even be embedded in
     struct file in the first place. Instead, actual users of struct
     fown_struct now allocate the struct on demand. This frees up 24
     bytes.

   - Move struct file_ra_state into the union containg the cleanup hooks
     and move f_iocb_flags out of the union. This closes a 4 byte hole
     we created earlier and brings struct file to 192 bytes. Which means
     struct file is 3 cachelines and we managed to shrink it by 40
     bytes.

   - Reorder struct file so that nothing crosses a cacheline.

     I suspect that in the future we will end up reordering some members
     to mitigate false sharing issues or just because someone does
     actually provide really good perf data.

   - Shrinking struct file to 192 bytes is only part of the work.

     Files use a slab that is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and when a kmem cache
     is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU the free pointer must be
     located outside of the object because the cache doesn't know what
     part of the memory can safely be overwritten as it may be needed to
     prevent object recycling.

     That has the consequence that SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU may end up
     adding a new cacheline.

     So this also contains work to add a new kmem_cache_create_rcu()
     function that allows the caller to specify an offset where the
     freelist pointer is supposed to be placed. Thus avoiding the
     implicit addition of a fourth cacheline.

   - And finally this removes the f_version member in struct file.

     The f_version member isn't particularly well-defined. It is mainly
     used as a cookie to detect concurrent seeks when iterating
     directories. But it is also abused by some subsystems for
     completely unrelated things.

     It is mostly a directory and filesystem specific thing that doesn't
     really need to live in struct file and with its wonky semantics it
     really lacks a specific function.

     For pipes, f_version is (ab)used to defer poll notifications until
     a write has happened. And struct pipe_inode_info is used by
     multiple struct files in their ->private_data so there's no chance
     of pushing that down into file->private_data without introducing
     another pointer indirection.

     But pipes don't rely on f_pos_lock so this adds a union into struct
     file encompassing f_pos_lock and a pipe specific f_pipe member that
     pipes can use. This union of course can be extended to other file
     types and is similar to what we do in struct inode already"

Merge tag 'vfs-6.12.misc' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the usual pile of misc updates:

  Features:

   - Add F_CREATED_QUERY fcntl() that allows userspace to query whether
     a file was actually created. Often userspace wants to know whether
     an O_CREATE request did actually create a file without using
     O_EXCL. The current logic is that to first attempts to open the
     file without O_CREAT | O_EXCL and if ENOENT is returned userspace
     tries again with both flags. If that succeeds all is well. If it
     now reports EEXIST it retries.

     That works fairly well but some corner cases make this more
     involved. If this operates on a dangling symlink the first openat()
     without O_CREAT | O_EXCL will return ENOENT but the second openat()
     with O_CREAT | O_EXCL will fail with EEXIST.

     The reason is that openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL follows the
     symlink while O_CREAT | O_EXCL doesn't for security reasons. So
     it's not something we can really change unless we add an explicit
     opt-in via O_FOLLOW which seems really ugly.

     All available workarounds are really nasty (fanotify, bpf lsm etc)
     so add a simple fcntl().

   - Try an opportunistic lookup for O_CREAT. Today, when opening a file
     we'll typically do a fast lookup, but if O_CREAT is set, the kernel
     always takes the exclusive inode lock. This was likely done with
     the expectation that O_CREAT means that we always expect to do the
     create, but that's often not the case. Many programs set O_CREAT
     even in scenarios where the file already exists (see related
     F_CREATED_QUERY patch motivation above).

     The series contained in the pr rearranges the pathwalk-for-open
     code to also attempt a fast_lookup in certain O_CREAT cases. If a
     positive dentry is found, the inode_lock can be avoided altogether
     and it can stay in rcuwalk mode for the last step_into.

   - Expose the 64 bit mount id via name_to_handle_at()

     Now that we provide a unique 64-bit mount ID interface in statx(2),
     we can now provide a race-free way for name_to_handle_at(2) to
     provide a file handle and corresponding mount without needing to
     worry about racing with /proc/mountinfo parsing or having to open a
     file just to do statx(2).

     While this is not necessary if you are using AT_EMPTY_PATH and
     don't care about an extra statx(2) call, users that pass full paths
     into name_to_handle_at(2) need to know which mount the file handle
     comes from (to make sure they don't try to open_by_handle_at a file
     handle from a different filesystem) and switching to AT_EMPTY_PATH
     would require allocating a file for every name_to_handle_at(2) call

   - Add a per dentry expire timeout to autofs

     There are two fairly well known automounter map formats, the autofs
     format and the amd format (more or less System V and Berkley).

     Some time ago Linux autofs added an amd map format parser that
     implemented a fair amount of the amd functionality. This was done
     within the autofs infrastructure and some functionality wasn't
     implemented because it either didn't make sense or required extra
     kernel changes. The idea was to restrict changes to be within the
     existing autofs functionality as much as possible and leave changes
     with a wider scope to be considered later.

     One of these changes is implementing the amd options:
      1) "unmount", expire this mount according to a timeout (same as
         the current autofs default).
      2) "nounmount", don't expire this mount (same as setting the
         autofs timeout to 0 except only for this specific mount) .
      3) "utimeout=<seconds>", expire this mount using the specified
         timeout (again same as setting the autofs timeout but only for
         this mount)

     To implement these options per-dentry expire timeouts need to be
     implemented for autofs indirect mounts. This is because all map
     keys (mounts) for autofs indirect mounts use an expire timeout
     stored in the autofs mount super block info. structure and all
     indirect mounts use the same expire timeout.

  Fixes:

   - Fix missing fput for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in autofs

   - Use param->file for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in coda

   - Delete the 'fs/netfs' proc subtreee when netfs module exits

   - Make sure that struct uid_gid_map fits into a single cacheline

     documentation

   - Fix a race between evice_inodes() and find_inode() and iput()

   - Refine the show_inode_state() macro definition in writeback code

   - Prevent dump_mapping() from accessing invalid dentry.d_name.name

   - Show actual source for debugfs in /proc/mounts

   - Annotate data-race of busy_poll_usecs in eventpoll

   - Don't WARN for racy path_noexec check in exec code

   - Handle OOM on mnt_warn_timestamp_expiry()

   - Fix some spelling in the iomap design documentation

   - Fix typo in procfs comment

   - Fix typo in fs/namespace.c comment

  Cleanups:

   - Add the VFS git tree to the MAINTAINERS file

   - Move FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET to fop_flags freeing up another f_mode
     bit in struct file bringing us to 5 free f_mode bits

   - Remove the __I_DIO_WAKEUP bit from i_state flags as we can simplify
     the wait mechanism

   - Remove the unused path_put_init() helper

   - Replace a __u32 with u32 for s_fsnotify_mask as __u32 is uapi
     specific

   - Replace the unsigned long i_state member with a u32 i_state member
     in struct inode freeing up 4 bytes in struct inode. Instead of
     using the bit based wait apis we're now using the var event apis
     and using the individual bytes of the i_state member to wait on
     state changes

   - Explain how per-syscall AT_* flags should be allocated

   - Use in_group_or_capable() helper to simplify the posix acl mode
     update code

   - Switch to LIST_HEAD() in fsync_buffers_list() to simplify the code

   - Removed comment about d_rcu_to_refcount() as that function doesn't
     exist anymore

   - Add kernel documentation for lookup_fast()

   - Don't re-zero evenpoll fields

   - Remove outdated comment after close_fd()

   - Fix imprecise wording in comment about the pipe filesystem

   - Drop GFP_NOFAIL mode from alloc_page_buffers

   - Missing blank line warnings and struct declaration improved in
     file_table

   - Annotate struct poll_list with __counted_by()

   - Remove the unused read parameter in percpu-rwsem

   - Remove linux/prefetch.h include from direct-io code

   - Use kmemdup_array instead of kmemdup for multiple allocation in
     mnt_idmapping code

   - Remove unused mnt_cursor_del() declaration

  Performance tweaks:

   - Dodge smp_mb in break_lease and break_deleg in the common case

   - Only read fops once in fops_{get,put}()

   - Use RCU in ilookup()

   - Elide smp_mb in iversion handling in the common case

   - Drop one lock trip in evict()"

fs: Introduce FOP_ASYNC_LOCK
Some lock managers (NLM, kNFSD) fastidiously avoid blocking their
kernel threads while servicing blocking locks.  If a filesystem supports
asynchronous lock requests those lock managers can use notifications to
quickly inform clients they have acquired a file lock.

Historically, only posix_lock_file() was capable of supporting asynchronous
locks so the check for support was simply file_operations->lock(), but with
recent changes in DLM, both GFS2 and OCFS2 also support asynchronous locks
and have started signalling their support with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK.

We recently noticed that those changes dropped the checks for whether a
filesystem simply defaults to posix_lock_file(), so async lock
notifications have not been attempted for NLM and NFSv4.1+ for most
filesystems.  While trying to fix this it has become clear that testing
both the export flag combined with testing ->lock() creates quite a
layering mess.  It seems appropriate to signal support with a fop_flag.

Add FOP_ASYNC_LOCK so that filesystems with ->lock() can signal their
capability to handle lock requests asynchronously.  Add a helper for
lock managers to properly test that support.

2097154a10 namespace: introduce SB_I_NOIDMAP flag
Right now we determine if filesystem support vfs idmappings or not basing
on the FS_ALLOW_IDMAP flag presence. This "static" way works perfecly well
for local filesystems like ext4, xfs, btrfs, etc. But for network-like
filesystems like fuse, cephfs this approach is not ideal, because sometimes
proper support of vfs idmaps requires some extensions for the on-wire
protocol, which implies that changes have to be made not only in the Linux
kernel code but also in the 3rd party components like libfuse, cephfs MDS
server and so on.

We have seen that issue during our work on cephfs idmapped mounts [1] with
Christian, but right now I'm working on the idmapped mounts support for
fuse/virtiofs and I think that it is a right time for this extension.

0a2d82946b mm: allow read-ahead with IOCB_NOWAIT set
Readahead support for IOCB_NOWAIT was introduced in commit 2e85abf053
("mm: allow read-ahead with IOCB_NOWAIT set").  However, this
implementation broke the semantics of IOCB_NOWAIT by potentially causing
it to wait on I/O during memory reclamation.  This behavior was later
modified in commit efa8480a83 ("fs: RWF_NOWAIT should imply IOCB_NOIO").

To resolve the blocking issue during memory reclamation, we can use
memalloc_noio_{save,restore} to ensure non-blocking behavior.  This change
restores the original functionality, allowing preadv2(IOCB_NOWAIT) to
trigger readahead if the file content is not present in the page cache.

While this process may trigger direct memory reclamation, the
__GFP_NORETRY flag is set in the readahead GFP flags, ensuring it won't
block.

A use case for this change is when we want to trigger readahead in the
preadv2(2) syscall if the file cache is absent, but without waiting for
certain filesystem locks, like xfs_ilock.  A simple example is as follows:

retry:
    if (preadv2(fd, iovec, cnt, offset, RWF_NOWAIT) < 0) {
        do_other_work();
        goto retry;
    }

The i_state member is an unsigned long so that it can be used with the
wait bit infrastructure which expects unsigned long. This wastes 4 bytes
which we're unlikely to ever use. Switch to using the var event wait
mechanism using the address of the bit. Thanks to Linus for the address
idea.

641bb4394f fs: move FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET to fop_flags
This is another flag that is statically set and doesn't need to use up
an FMODE_* bit. Move it to ->fop_flags and free up another FMODE_* bit.

8447d848e1 vfs: only read fops once in fops_get/put
In do_dentry_open() the usage is:
	f->f_op = fops_get(inode->i_fop);

In generated asm the compiler emits 2 reads from inode->i_fop instead of
just one.

This popped up due to false-sharing where loads from that offset end up
bouncing a cacheline during parallel open. While this is going to be fixed,
the spurious load does not need to be there.

This makes do_dentry_open() go down from 1177 to 1154 bytes.

fops_put() is patched to maintain some consistency.

No functional changes.

a55d1cbd17 fs: switch f_iocb_flags and f_ra
Now that we shrank struct file by 24 bytes we still have a 4 byte hole.
If we move struct file_ra_state into the union and f_iocb_flags out of
the union we close that whole and bring down struct file to 192 bytes.
Which means struct file is 3 cachelines and we managed to shrink it by
40 bytes this cycle.

I've tried to audit all codepaths that use f_ra and none of them seem to
rely on it in file->f_op->release() and never have since commit
1da177e4c3 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2").

1934b21261 file: reclaim 24 bytes from f_owner
We do embedd struct fown_struct into struct file letting it take up 32
bytes in total. We could tweak struct fown_struct to be more compact but
really it shouldn't even be embedded in struct file in the first place.

Instead, actual users of struct fown_struct should allocate the struct
on demand. This frees up 24 bytes in struct file.

That will have some potentially user-visible changes for the ownership
fcntl()s. Some of them can now fail due to allocation failures.
Practically, that probably will almost never happen as the allocations
are small and they only happen once per file.

The fown_struct is used during kill_fasync() which is used by e.g.,
pipes to generate a SIGIO signal. Sending of such signals is conditional
on userspace having set an owner for the file using one of the F_OWNER
fcntl()s. Such users will be unaffected if struct fown_struct is
allocated during the fcntl() call.

There are a few subsystems that call __f_setown() expecting
file->f_owner to be allocated:

(1) tun devices
    file->f_op->fasync::tun_chr_fasync()
    -> __f_setown()

    There are no callers of tun_chr_fasync().

(2) tty devices

    file->f_op->fasync::tty_fasync()
    -> __tty_fasync()
       -> __f_setown()

    tty_fasync() has no additional callers but __tty_fasync() has. Note
    that __tty_fasync() only calls __f_setown() if the @on argument is
    true. It's called from:

    file->f_op->release::tty_release()
    -> tty_release()
       -> __tty_fasync()
          -> __f_setown()

    tty_release() calls __tty_fasync() with @on false
    => __f_setown() is never called from tty_release().
       => All callers of tty_release() are safe as well.

    file->f_op->release::tty_open()
    -> tty_release()
       -> __tty_fasync()
          -> __f_setown()

    __tty_hangup() calls __tty_fasync() with @on false
    => __f_setown() is never called from tty_release().
       => All callers of __tty_hangup() are safe as well.

From the callchains it's obvious that (1) and (2) end up getting called
via file->f_op->fasync(). That can happen either through the F_SETFL
fcntl() with the FASYNC flag raised or via the FIOASYNC ioctl(). If
FASYNC is requested and the file isn't already FASYNC then
file->f_op->fasync() is called with @on true which ends up causing both
(1) and (2) to call __f_setown().

(1) and (2) are the only subsystems that call __f_setown() from the
file->f_op->fasync() handler. So both (1) and (2) have been updated to
allocate a struct fown_struct prior to calling fasync_helper() to
register with the fasync infrastructure. That's safe as they both call
fasync_helper() which also does allocations if @on is true.

The other interesting case are file leases:

(3) file leases
    lease_manager_ops->lm_setup::lease_setup()
    -> __f_setown()

    Which in turn is called from:

    generic_add_lease()
    -> lease_manager_ops->lm_setup::lease_setup()
       -> __f_setown()

So here again we can simply make generic_add_lease() allocate struct
fown_struct prior to the lease_manager_ops->lm_setup::lease_setup()
which happens under a spinlock.

With that the two remaining subsystems that call __f_setown() are:

(4) dnotify
(5) sockets

Both have their own custom ioctls to set struct fown_struct and both
have been converted to allocate a struct fown_struct on demand from
their respective ioctls.

Interactions with O_PATH are fine as well e.g., when opening a /dev/tty
as O_PATH then no file->f_op->open() happens thus no file->f_owner is
allocated. That's fine as no file operation will be set for those and
the device has never been opened. fcntl()s called on such things will
just allocate a ->f_owner on demand. Although I have zero idea why'd you
care about f_owner on an O_PATH fd.

7e8ae8486e fs/nfsd: fix update of inode attrs in CB_GETATTR
Currently, we copy the mtime and ctime to the in-core inode and then
mark the inode dirty. This is fine for certain types of filesystems, but
not all. Some require a real setattr to properly change these values
(e.g. ceph or reexported NFS).

Fix this code to call notify_change() instead, which is the proper way
to effect a setattr. There is one problem though:

In this case, the client is holding a write delegation and has sent us
attributes to update our cache. We don't want to break the delegation
for this since that would defeat the purpose. Add a new ATTR_DELEG flag
that makes notify_change bypass the try_break_deleg call.

vfs: Don't evict inode under the inode lru traversing context
The inode reclaiming process(See function prune_icache_sb) collects all
reclaimable inodes and mark them with I_FREEING flag at first, at that
time, other processes will be stuck if they try getting these inodes
(See function find_inode_fast), then the reclaiming process destroy the
inodes by function dispose_list(). Some filesystems(eg. ext4 with
ea_inode feature, ubifs with xattr) may do inode lookup in the inode
evicting callback function, if the inode lookup is operated under the
inode lru traversing context, deadlock problems may happen.

Case 1: In function ext4_evict_inode(), the ea inode lookup could happen
        if ea_inode feature is enabled, the lookup process will be stuck
	under the evicting context like this:

 1. File A has inode i_reg and an ea inode i_ea
 2. getfattr(A, xattr_buf) // i_ea is added into lru // lru->i_ea
 3. Then, following three processes running like this:

    PA                              PB
 echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
  shrink_slab
   prune_dcache_sb
   // i_reg is added into lru, lru->i_ea->i_reg
   prune_icache_sb
    list_lru_walk_one
     inode_lru_isolate
      i_ea->i_state |= I_FREEING // set inode state
     inode_lru_isolate
      __iget(i_reg)
      spin_unlock(&i_reg->i_lock)
      spin_unlock(lru_lock)
                                     rm file A
                                      i_reg->nlink = 0
      iput(i_reg) // i_reg->nlink is 0, do evict
       ext4_evict_inode
        ext4_xattr_delete_inode
         ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all
          ext4_xattr_inode_iget

    dispose_list // cannot be executed by prune_icache_sb
     wake_up_bit(&i_ea->i_state)

Case 2: In deleted inode writing function ubifs_jnl_write_inode(), file
        deleting process holds BASEHD's wbuf->io_mutex while getting the
	xattr inode, which could race with inode reclaiming process(The
        reclaiming process could try locking BASEHD's wbuf->io_mutex in
	inode evicting function), then an ABBA deadlock problem would
	happen as following:

 1. File A has inode ia and a xattr(with inode ixa), regular file B has
    inode ib and a xattr.
 2. getfattr(A, xattr_buf) // ixa is added into lru // lru->ixa
 3. Then, following three processes running like this:

        PA                PB                        PC

Fix the possible deadlock by using new inode state flag I_LRU_ISOLATING
to pin the inode in memory while inode_lru_isolate() reclaims its pages
instead of using ordinary inode reference. This way inode deletion
cannot be triggered from inode_lru_isolate() thus avoiding the deadlock.
evict() is made to wait for I_LRU_ISOLATING to be cleared before
proceeding with inode cleanup.
