userfaultfd: fix a crash in UFFDIO_MOVE when PMD is a migration entry
When UFFDIO_MOVE encounters a migration PMD entry, it proceeds with
obtaining a folio and accessing it even though the entry is swp_entry_t.
Add the missing check and let split_huge_pmd() handle migration entries.
While at it also remove unnecessary folio check.
[surenb@google.com: remove extra folio check, per David]

mm: pass page directly instead of using folio_page
In commit_anon_folio_batch(), we iterate over all pages pointed to by the
PTE batch. Therefore we need to know the first page of the batch;
currently we derive that via folio_page(folio, 0), but, that takes us to
the first (head) page of the folio instead - our PTE batch may lie in the
middle of the folio, leading to incorrectness.
Bite the bullet and throw away the micro-optimization of reusing the folio
in favour of code simplicity. Derive the page and the folio in
change_pte_range, and pass the page too to commit_anon_folio_batch to fix
the aforementioned issue.

mm: fix the race between collapse and PT_RECLAIM under per-vma lock
The check_pmd_still_valid() call during collapse is currently only
protected by the mmap_lock in write mode, which was sufficient when
pt_reclaim always ran under mmap_lock in read mode. However, since
madvise_dontneed can now execute under a per-VMA lock, this assumption is
no longer valid. As a result, a race condition can occur between collapse
and PT_RECLAIM, potentially leading to a kernel panic.

mm/kmemleak: avoid soft lockup in __kmemleak_do_cleanup()
A soft lockup warning was observed on a relative small system x86-64 system with 16 GB of memory when running a debug kernel with kmemleak enabled. watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 33s! [kworker/8:1:134] The test system was running a workload with hot unplug happening in parallel. Then kemleak decided to disable itself due to its inability to allocate more kmemleak objects. The debug kernel has its CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE set to 40,000. The soft lockup happened in kmemleak_do_cleanup() when the existing kmemleak objects were being removed and deleted one-by-one in a loop via a workqueue. In this particular case, there are at least 40,000 objects that need to be processed and given the slowness of a debug kernel and the fact that a raw_spinlock has to be acquired and released in __delete_object(), it could take a while to properly handle all these objects. As kmemleak has been disabled in this case, the object removal and deletion process can be further optimized as locking isn't really needed. However, it is probably not worth the effort to optimize for such an edge case that should rarely happen. So the simple solution is to call cond_resched() at periodic interval in the iteration loop to avoid soft lockup.

mm/kmemleak: avoid deadlock by moving pr_warn() outside kmemleak_lock
When netpoll is enabled, calling pr_warn_once() while holding
kmemleak_lock in mem_pool_alloc() can cause a deadlock due to lock
inversion with the netconsole subsystem. This occurs because
pr_warn_once() may trigger netpoll, which eventually leads to
__alloc_skb() and back into kmemleak code, attempting to reacquire
kmemleak_lock.
This is the path for the deadlock.
mem_pool_alloc()
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
-> pr_warn_once()
-> netconsole subsystem
-> netpoll
-> __alloc_skb
-> __create_object
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
Fix this by setting a flag and issuing the pr_warn_once() after
kmemleak_lock is released.

kasan/test: fix protection against compiler elision
The kunit test is using assignments to
"static volatile void *kasan_ptr_result" to prevent elision of memory
loads, but that's not working:
In this variable definition, the "volatile" applies to the "void", not to
the pointer.
To make "volatile" apply to the pointer as intended, it must follow
after the "*".
This makes the kasan_memchr test pass again on my system. The
kasan_strings test is still failing because all the definitions of
load_unaligned_zeropad() are lacking explicit instrumentation hooks and
ASAN does not instrument asm() memory operands.

mm: correct type for vmalloc vm_flags fields
Several functions refer to the unfortunately named 'vm_flags' field when referencing vmalloc flags, which happens to be the precise same name used for VMA flags. As a result these were erroneously changed to use the vm_flags_t type (which currently is a typedef equivalent to unsigned long). Currently this has no impact, but in future when vm_flags_t changes this will result in issues, so change the type to unsigned long to account for this.

mm/shmem, swap: rework swap entry and index calculation for large swapin
Instead of calculating the swap entry differently in different swapin paths, calculate it early before the swap cache lookup and use that for the lookup and later swapin. And after swapin have brought a folio, simply round it down against the size of the folio. This is simple and effective enough to verify the swap value. A folio's swap entry is always aligned by its size. Any kind of parallel split or race is acceptable because the final shmem_add_to_page_cache ensures that all entries covered by the folio are correct, and thus there will be no data corruption. This also prevents false positive cache lookup. If a shmem read request's index points to the middle of a large swap entry, previously, shmem will try the swap cache lookup using the large swap entry's starting value (which is the first sub swap entry of this large entry). This will lead to false positive lookup results if only the first few swap entries are cached but the actual requested swap entry pointed by the index is uncached. This is not a rare event, as swap readahead always tries to cache order 0 folios when possible. And this shouldn't cause any increased repeated faults. Instead, no matter how the shmem mapping is split in parallel, as long as the mapping still contains the right entries, the swapin will succeed. The final object size and stack usage are also reduced due to simplified code: ./scripts/bloat-o-meter mm/shmem.o.old mm/shmem.o add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-145 (-145) Function old new delta shmem_swapin_folio 4056 3911 -145 Total: Before=33242, After=33097, chg -0.44% Stack usage (Before vs After): mm/shmem.c:2314:12:shmem_swapin_folio 264 static mm/shmem.c:2314:12:shmem_swapin_folio 256 static And while at it, round down the index too if swap entry is round down. The index is used either for folio reallocation or confirming the mapping content. In either case, it should be aligned with the swap folio.

mm/shmem, swap: never use swap cache and readahead for SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
For SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO devices, if a cache bypassing THP swapin failed due to reasons like memory pressure, partially conflicting swap cache or ZSWAP enabled, shmem will fallback to cached order 0 swapin. Right now the swap cache still has a non-trivial overhead, and readahead is not helpful for SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO devices, so we should always skip the readahead and swap cache even if the swapin falls back to order 0. So handle the fallback logic without falling back to the cached read.

mm/shmem, swap: tidy up swap entry splitting
Instead of keeping different paths of splitting the entry before the swap in start, move the entry splitting after the swapin has put the folio in swap cache (or set the SWAP_HAS_CACHE bit). This way we only need one place and one unified way to split the large entry. Whenever swapin brought in a folio smaller than the shmem swap entry, split the entry and recalculate the entry and index for verification. This removes duplicated codes and function calls, reduces LOC, and the split is less racy as it's guarded by swap cache now. So it will have a lower chance of repeated faults due to raced split. The compiler is also able to optimize the coder further: bloat-o-meter results with GCC 14: With DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH (-fno-inline-functions-called-once): ./scripts/bloat-o-meter mm/shmem.o.old mm/shmem.o add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-143 (-143) Function old new delta shmem_swapin_folio 2358 2215 -143 Total: Before=32933, After=32790, chg -0.43% With !DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH: add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/0 up/down: 1069/-749 (320) Function old new delta shmem_swapin_folio 2871 3940 +1069 shmem_split_large_entry.isra 749 - -749 Total: Before=32806, After=33126, chg +0.98% Since shmem_split_large_entry is only called in one place now. The compiler will either generate more compact code, or inlined it for better performance.

mm/shmem, swap: tidy up THP swapin checks
Move all THP swapin related checks under CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, so they will be trimmed off by the compiler if not needed.

mm/shmem, swap: avoid redundant Xarray lookup during swapin
Patch series "mm/shmem, swap: bugfix and improvement of mTHP swap in", v6. The current THP swapin path have several problems. It may potentially hang, may cause redundant faults due to false positive swap cache lookup, and it issues redundant Xarray walks. !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE builds may also contain unnecessary THP checks. This series fixes all of the mentioned issues, the code should be more robust and prepared for the swap table series. Now 4 walks is reduced to 3 (get order & confirm, confirm, insert folio), !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE build overhead is also minimized, and comes with a sanity check now. The performance is slightly better after this series, sequential swap in of 24G data from ZRAM, using transparent_hugepage_tmpfs=always (24 samples each): Before: avg: 10.66s, stddev: 0.04 After patch 1: avg: 10.58s, stddev: 0.04 After patch 2: avg: 10.65s, stddev: 0.05 After patch 3: avg: 10.65s, stddev: 0.04 After patch 4: avg: 10.67s, stddev: 0.04 After patch 5: avg: 9.79s, stddev: 0.04 After patch 6: avg: 9.79s, stddev: 0.05 After patch 7: avg: 9.78s, stddev: 0.05 After patch 8: avg: 9.79s, stddev: 0.04 Several patches improve the performance by a little, which is about ~8% faster in total. Build kernel test showed very slightly improvement, testing with make -j48 with defconfig in a 768M memcg also using ZRAM as swap, and transparent_hugepage_tmpfs=always (6 test runs): Before: avg: 3334.66s, stddev: 43.76 After patch 1: avg: 3349.77s, stddev: 18.55 After patch 2: avg: 3325.01s, stddev: 42.96 After patch 3: avg: 3354.58s, stddev: 14.62 After patch 4: avg: 3336.24s, stddev: 32.15 After patch 5: avg: 3325.13s, stddev: 22.14 After patch 6: avg: 3285.03s, stddev: 38.95 After patch 7: avg: 3287.32s, stddev: 26.37 After patch 8: avg: 3295.87s, stddev: 46.24 This patch (of 7): Currently shmem calls xa_get_order to get the swap radix entry order, requiring a full tree walk. This can be easily combined with the swap entry value checking (shmem_confirm_swap) to avoid the duplicated lookup and abort early if the entry is gone already. Which should improve the performance.

execmem: add fallback for failures in vmalloc(VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP)
When execmem populates ROX cache it uses vmalloc(VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP). Although vmalloc falls back to allocating base pages if high order allocation fails, it may happen that it still cannot allocate enough memory. Right now ROX cache is only used by modules and in majority of cases the allocations happen at boot time when there's plenty of free memory, but upcoming enabling ROX cache for ftrace and kprobes would mean that execmem allocations can happen when the system is under memory pressure and a failure to allocate large page worth of memory becomes more likely. Fallback to regular vmalloc() if vmalloc(VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP) fails.

execmem: rework execmem_cache_free()
Currently execmem_cache_free() ignores potential allocation failures that may happen in execmem_cache_add(). Besides, it uses text poking to fill the memory with trapping instructions before returning it to cache although it would be more efficient to make that memory writable, update it using memcpy and then restore ROX protection. Rework execmem_cache_free() so that in case of an error it will defer freeing of the memory to a delayed work. With this the happy fast path will now change permissions to RW, fill the memory with trapping instructions using memcpy, restore ROX permissions, add the memory back to the free cache and clear the relevant entry in busy_areas. If any step in the fast path fails, the entry in busy_areas will be marked as pending_free. These entries will be handled by a delayed work and freed asynchronously. To make the fast path faster, use __GFP_NORETRY for memory allocations and let asynchronous handler try harder with GFP_KERNEL.

execmem: drop unused execmem_update_copy()
Patch series "x86: enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for ftrace and kprobes", v3. These patches enable use of EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for ftrace and kprobes allocations on x86. They also include some ground work in execmem. Since the execmem model for caching large ROX pages changed from the initial assumption that the memory that is allocated from ROX cache is always ROX to the current state where memory can be temporarily made RW and then restored to ROX, we can stop using text poking to update it. This also saves the hassle of trying lock text_mutex in execmem_cache_free() when kprobes already hold that mutex. This patch (of 8): The execmem_update_copy() that used text poking was required when memory allocated from ROX cache was always read-only. Since now its permissions can be switched to read-write there is no need in a function that updates memory with text poking. Remove it.

mm: fix a UAF when vma->mm is freed after vma->vm_refcnt got dropped
By inducing delays in the right places, Jann Horn created a reproducer for
a hard to hit UAF issue that became possible after VMAs were allowed to be
recycled by adding SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU to their cache.
Race description is borrowed from Jann's discovery report:
lock_vma_under_rcu() looks up a VMA locklessly with mas_walk() under
rcu_read_lock(). At that point, the VMA may be concurrently freed, and it
can be recycled by another process. vma_start_read() then increments the
vma->vm_refcnt (if it is in an acceptable range), and if this succeeds,
vma_start_read() can return a recycled VMA.
In this scenario where the VMA has been recycled, lock_vma_under_rcu()
will then detect the mismatching ->vm_mm pointer and drop the VMA through
vma_end_read(), which calls vma_refcount_put(). vma_refcount_put() drops
the refcount and then calls rcuwait_wake_up() using a copy of vma->vm_mm.
This is wrong: It implicitly assumes that the caller is keeping the VMA's
mm alive, but in this scenario the caller has no relation to the VMA's mm,
so the rcuwait_wake_up() can cause UAF.
The diagram depicting the race:
T1 T2 T3
== == ==
lock_vma_under_rcu
mas_walk
<VMA gets removed from mm>
mmap
<the same VMA is reallocated>
vma_start_read
__refcount_inc_not_zero_limited_acquire
munmap
__vma_enter_locked
refcount_add_not_zero
vma_end_read
vma_refcount_put
__refcount_dec_and_test
rcuwait_wait_event
<finish operation>
rcuwait_wake_up [UAF]
Note that rcuwait_wait_event() in T3 does not block because refcount was
already dropped by T1. At this point T3 can exit and free the mm causing
UAF in T1.
To avoid this we move vma->vm_mm verification into vma_start_read() and
grab vma->vm_mm to stabilize it before vma_refcount_put() operation.

mm: add get_and_clear_ptes() and clear_ptes()
Patch series "Optimizations for khugepaged", v4. If the underlying folio mapped by the ptes is large, we can process those ptes in a batch using folio_pte_batch(). For arm64 specifically, this results in a 16x reduction in the number of ptep_get() calls, since on a contig block, ptep_get() on arm64 will iterate through all 16 entries to collect a/d bits. Next, ptep_clear() will cause a TLBI for every contig block in the range via contpte_try_unfold(). Instead, use clear_ptes() to only do the TLBI at the first and last contig block of the range. For split folios, there will be no pte batching; the batch size returned by folio_pte_batch() will be 1. For pagetable split folios, the ptes will still point to the same large folio; for arm64, this results in the optimization described above, and for other arches, a minor improvement is expected due to a reduction in the number of function calls and batching atomic operations. This patch (of 3): Let's add variants to be used where "full" does not apply -- which will be the majority of cases in the future. "full" really only applies if we are about to tear down a full MM. Use get_and_clear_ptes() in existing code, clear_ptes() users will be added next.

mm/mseal: rework mseal apply logic
The logic can be simplified - firstly by renaming the inconsistently named apply_mm_seal() to mseal_apply(). We then wrap mseal_fixup() into the main loop as the logic is simple enough to not require it, equally it isn't a hugely pleasant pattern in mprotect() etc. so it's not something we want to perpetuate. We eliminate the need for invoking vma_iter_end() on each loop by directly determining if the VMA was merged - the only thing we need concern ourselves with is whether the start/end of the (gapless) range are offset into VMAs. This refactoring also avoids the rather horrid 'pass pointer to prev around' pattern used in mprotect() et al. No functional change intended.

mm/mseal: simplify and rename VMA gap check
The check_mm_seal() function is doing something general - checking whether a range contains only VMAs (or rather that it does NOT contain any unmapped regions). So rename this function to range_contains_unmapped(). Additionally simplify the logic, we are simply checking whether the last vma->vm_end has either a VMA starting after it or ends before the end parameter. This check is rather dubious, so it is sensible to keep it local to mm/mseal.c as at a later stage it may be removed, and we don't want any other mm code to perform such a check.

mm/mseal: update madvise() logic
The madvise() logic is inexplicably performed in mm/mseal.c - this ought to be located in mm/madvise.c. Additionally can_modify_vma_madv() is inconsistently named and, in combination with is_ro_anon(), is very confusing logic. Put a static function in mm/madvise.c instead - can_madvise_modify() - that spells out exactly what's happening. Also explicitly check for an anon VMA. Also add commentary to explain what's going on. Essentially - we disallow discarding of data in mseal()'d mappings in instances where the user couldn't otherwise write to that data. We retain the existing behaviour here regarding MAP_PRIVATE mappings of file-backed mappings, which entails some complexity - while this, strictly speaking - appears to violate mseal() semantics, it may interact badly with users which expect to be able to madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) .text mappings for instance. We may revisit this at a later date. No functional change intended.

mm/damon/vaddr: skip isolating folios already in destination nid
damos_va_migrate_dests_add() determines the node a folio should be in
based on the struct damos_migrate_dests associated with the migration
scheme and adds the folio to the linked list corresponding to that node so
it can be migrated later. Currently, folios are isolated and added to the
list even if they are already in the node they should be in.
In using damon weighted interleave more, I've found that the overhead of
needlessly adding these folios to the migration lists can be quite high.
The overhead comes from isolating folios and placing them in the migration
lists inside of damos_va_migrate_dests_add(), as well as the cost of
handling those folios in damon_migrate_pages(). This patch eliminates
that overhead by simply avoiding the addition of folios that are already
in their intended location to the migration list.
To show the benefit of this patch, we start the test workload and start a
DAMON instance attached to that workload with a migrate_hot scheme that
has one dest field sending data to the local node. This way, we are only
measuring the overheads of the scheme, and not the cost of migrating
pages, since data will be allocated to the local node by default. I
tested with two workloads: the embedding reduction workload used in [1]
and a microbenchmark that allocates 20GB of data then sleeps, which is
similar to the memory usage of the embedding reduction workload.
The time taken in damos_va_migrate_dests_add() and damon_migrate_pages()
each aggregation interval is shown below.
Before this patch:
damos_va_migrate_dests_add damon_migrate_pages
microbenchmark ~2ms ~3ms
embedding reduction ~1s ~3s
After this patch:
damos_va_migrate_dests_add damon_migrate_pages
microbenchmark 0us ~40us
embedding reduction 0us ~100us
I did not do an in depth analysis for why things are much slower in the
embedding reduction workload than the microbenchmark. However, I assume
it's because the embedding reduction workload oversaturates the bandwidth
of the local memory node, increasing the memory access latency, and in
turn making the pointer chasing involved in iterating through a linked
list much slower. Regardless of that, this patch results in a significant
speedup.

kasan: skip quarantine if object is still accessible under RCU
Currently, enabling KASAN masks bugs where a lockless lookup path gets a pointer to a SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU object that might concurrently be recycled and is insufficiently careful about handling recycled objects: KASAN puts freed objects in SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU slabs onto its quarantine queues, even when it can't actually detect UAF in these objects, and the quarantine prevents fast recycling. When I introduced CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG, my intention was that enabling CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG should cause KASAN to mark such objects as freed after an RCU grace period and put them on the quarantine, while disabling CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG should allow such objects to be reused immediately; but that hasn't actually been working. I discovered such a UAF bug involving SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU yesterday; I could only trigger this bug in a KASAN build by disabling CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG and applying this patch.

mm/shmem, swap: improve cached mTHP handling and fix potential hang
The current swap-in code assumes that, when a swap entry in shmem mapping
is order 0, its cached folios (if present) must be order 0 too, which
turns out not always correct.
The problem is shmem_split_large_entry is called before verifying the
folio will eventually be swapped in, one possible race is:
CPU1 CPU2
shmem_swapin_folio
/* swap in of order > 0 swap entry S1 */
folio = swap_cache_get_folio
/* folio = NULL */
order = xa_get_order
/* order > 0 */
folio = shmem_swap_alloc_folio
/* mTHP alloc failure, folio = NULL */
<... Interrupted ...>
shmem_swapin_folio
/* S1 is swapped in */
shmem_writeout
/* S1 is swapped out, folio cached */
shmem_split_large_entry(..., S1)
/* S1 is split, but the folio covering it has order > 0 now */
Now any following swapin of S1 will hang: `xa_get_order` returns 0, and
folio lookup will return a folio with order > 0. The
`xa_get_order(&mapping->i_pages, index) != folio_order(folio)` will always
return false causing swap-in to return -EEXIST.
And this looks fragile. So fix this up by allowing seeing a larger folio
in swap cache, and check the whole shmem mapping range covered by the
swapin have the right swap value upon inserting the folio. And drop the
redundant tree walks before the insertion.
This will actually improve performance, as it avoids two redundant Xarray
tree walks in the hot path, and the only side effect is that in the
failure path, shmem may redundantly reallocate a few folios causing
temporary slight memory pressure.
And worth noting, it may seems the order and value check before inserting
might help reducing the lock contention, which is not true. The swap
cache layer ensures raced swapin will either see a swap cache folio or
failed to do a swapin (we have SWAP_HAS_CACHE bit even if swap cache is
bypassed), so holding the folio lock and checking the folio flag is
already good enough for avoiding the lock contention. The chance that a
folio passes the swap entry value check but the shmem mapping slot has
changed should be very low.

It has been a relatively busy cycle for docs, especially the build system:
- The Perl kernel-doc script was added to 2.3.52pre1 just after the turn of the millennium.

Summary
* Move sysctls out of the kern_table array This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective subsystems. Only 5 (out of the original 50) will remain in kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle either sysctl or common arch variables. By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain control over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and reducing the likelihood of merge conflicts. * docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented in the check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to automatically identify if documentation is missing. * Testing All these have been in linux-next since rc3, giving them a solid 3 to 4 weeks worth of testing.

Both system calls serve as successors and extensible companions to the FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR system calls which have started to show their age in addition to being named in a way that makes it easy to conflate them with extended attribute related operations. These syscalls allow userspace to set filesystem inode attributes on special files. One of the usage examples is the XFS quota projects. XFS has project quotas which could be attached to a directory. All new inodes in these directories inherit project ID set on parent directory. The project is created from userspace by opening and calling FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR on each inode. This is not possible for special files such as FIFO, SOCK, BLK etc. Therefore, some inodes are left with empty project ID. Those inodes then are not shown in the quota accounting but still exist in the directory. This is not critical but in the case when special files are created in the directory with already existing project quota, these new inodes inherit extended attributes. This creates a mix of special files with and without attributes. Moreover, special files with attributes don't have a possibility to become clear or change the attributes. This, in turn, prevents userspace from re-creating quota project on these existing files. In addition, these new system calls allow the implementation of additional attributes that we couldn't or didn't want to fit into the legacy ioctls anymore" * tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.fileattr' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: tighten a sanity check in file_attr_to_fileattr() tree-wide: s/struct fileattr/struct file_kattr/g fs: introduce file_getattr and file_setattr syscalls fs: prepare for extending file_get/setattr() fs: make vfs_fileattr_[get|set] return -EOPNOTSUPP selinux: implement inode_file_[g|s]etattr hooks lsm: introduce new hooks for setting/getting inode fsxattr fs: split fileattr related helpers into separate file |

Features: - Add ext4 IOCB_DONTCACHE support This refactors the address_space_operations write_begin() and write_end() callbacks to take const struct kiocb * as their first argument, allowing IOCB flags such as IOCB_DONTCACHE to propagate to the filesystem's buffered I/O path. Ext4 is updated to implement handling of the IOCB_DONTCACHE flag and advertises support via the FOP_DONTCACHE file operation flag. Additionally, the i915 driver's shmem write paths are updated to bypass the legacy write_begin/write_end interface in favor of directly calling write_iter() with a constructed synchronous kiocb. Another i915 change replaces a manual write loop with kernel_write() during GEM shmem object creation. Cleanups: - don't duplicate vfs_open() in kernel_file_open() - proc_fd_getattr(): don't bother with S_ISDIR() check - fs/ecryptfs: replace snprintf with sysfs_emit in show function - vfs: Remove unnecessary list_for_each_entry_safe() from evict_inodes() - filelock: add new locks_wake_up_waiter() helper - fs: Remove three arguments from block_write_end() - VFS: change old_dir and new_dir in struct renamedata to dentrys - netfs: Remove unused declaration netfs_queue_write_request() Fixes: - eventpoll: Fix semi-unbounded recursion - eventpoll: fix sphinx documentation build warning - fs/read_write: Fix spelling typo - fs: annotate data race between poll_schedule_timeout() and pollwake() - fs/pipe: set FMODE_NOWAIT in create_pipe_files() - docs/vfs: update references to i_mutex to i_rwsem - fs/buffer: remove comment about hard sectorsize - fs/buffer: remove the min and max limit checks in __getblk_slow() - fs/libfs: don't assume blocksize <= PAGE_SIZE in generic_check_addressable - fs_context: fix parameter name in infofc() macro - fs: Prevent file descriptor table allocations exceeding INT_MAX" * tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (24 commits) netfs: Remove unused declaration netfs_queue_write_request() eventpoll: fix sphinx documentation build warning ext4: support uncached buffered I/O mm/pagemap: add write_begin_get_folio() helper function fs: change write_begin/write_end interface to take struct kiocb * drm/i915: Refactor shmem_pwrite() to use kiocb and write_iter drm/i915: Use kernel_write() in shmem object create eventpoll: Fix semi-unbounded recursion vfs: Remove unnecessary list_for_each_entry_safe() from evict_inodes() fs/libfs: don't assume blocksize <= PAGE_SIZE in generic_check_addressable fs/buffer: remove the min and max limit checks in __getblk_slow() fs: Prevent file descriptor table allocations exceeding INT_MAX fs: Remove three arguments from block_write_end() fs/ecryptfs: replace snprintf with sysfs_emit in show function fs: annotate suspected data race between poll_schedule_timeout() and pollwake() docs/vfs: update references to i_mutex to i_rwsem fs/buffer: remove comment about hard sectorsize fs_context: fix parameter name in infofc() macro VFS: change old_dir and new_dir in struct renamedata to dentrys proc_fd_getattr(): don't bother with S_ISDIR() check ... |
