f2fs-for-6.16-rc1
In this round, Matthew converted most of page operations to using folio. Beyond the work, we've applied some performance tunings such as GC and linear lookup, in addition to enhancing fault injection and sanity checks. Enhancement: - large number of folio conversions - add a control to turn on/off the linear lookup for performance - tune GC logics for zoned block device - improve fault injection and sanity checks Bug fix: - handle error cases of memory donation - fix to correct check conditions in f2fs_cross_rename - fix to skip f2fs_balance_fs() if checkpoint is disabled - don't over-report free space or inodes in statvfs - prevent the current section from being selected as a victim during GC - fix to calculate first_zoned_segno correctly - fix to avoid inconsistence in between SIT and SSA for zoned block device As usual, there are several debugging patches and clean-ups as well. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEE00UqedjCtOrGVvQiQBSofoJIUNIFAmg3PdcACgkQQBSofoJI UNL/mQ/9Hkru4XSCokhxt8+/HoFRnTliAlzfD45Vzkkhz1YP7J8VdvWOzJV/WEai D3Ib50Q6/y2ptxu7cwOpmToR3fI3RzAlgQsYooFAiZOBnyUkBOLA1oaVuT4s/EYg u85xxLx0SW/IMX5CKKbYzhbXnocGAvRUkp/k30kjKJxpCeQ7pw/mLhw/2XeNIb9h FxJbECWPpf4PA6ot22YUNvQn0plF/s9873PPhv50vpGyXTHIlTbDCSMeEC1r1E5v xWsPcWmTkyPIyBhNFEONWJw1l3wcVIVKNBfBqwMEDr+Tgqi5UDEREeTDV9q5C6y+ vw3KnsOqX7RTdLExGfefTOnBsTqqMwSZQSH2HL5/Poayg5obXf3D/fUqAQajJpt/ FbAtfKaXElJcC7l3DJQU3Trh+WpdEPbuMiJo43OzX0YGvMfkA/sYrAHTYm5Q4nsC wrRLaWiBgG6nQDKNXz+amD9kL1SMxp+Vsf6ybtChH3gvMqDAJsR7DY1F/Cxe3ry8 8JoJiGRYq70lw5xNACfJNQwWwRbtySy63nIwMA7FGR9zaXBQJx+cSPhEeLsS+0hI zgijgtgRjbfuojlh7qvfFArHEIL4A67Um3RhjHbLWSFhREPaTB0665ElUNTGPe+y hVdYtkb0X2ngsYdV/Xdmp/OThpSxI8x1ZCXVsrElawVIMpjP+nA= =G8sl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'f2fs-for-6.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "In this round, Matthew converted most of page operations to using folio.

Driver core changes for 6.16-rc1
Here are the driver core / kernfs changes for 6.16-rc1. Not a huge number of changes this development cycle, here's the summary of what is included in here: - kernfs locking tweaks, pushing some global locks down into a per-fs image lock - rust driver core and pci device bindings added for new features. - sysfs const work for bin_attributes. This churn should now be completed for those types of attributes - auxbus device creation helpers added - fauxbus fix for creating sysfs files after the probe completed properly - other tiny updates for driver core things.

New ext4 features and performance improvements:
* Fast commit performance improvements * Multi-fsblock atomic write support for bigalloc file systems * Large folio support for regular files This last can result in really stupendous performance for the right workloads.

A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx build system. This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the small number of problems that turned up have been addressed, seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17.

fscrypt update for 6.16
Add support for "hardware-wrapped inline encryption keys" to fscrypt. When enabled on supported platforms, this feature protects file contents keys from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks. This feature uses the block layer support for wrapped keys which was merged in 6.15. Wrapped key support has existed out-of-tree in Android for a long time, and it's finally ready for upstream now that there is a platform on which it works end-to-end with upstream. Specifically, it works on the Qualcomm SM8650 HDK, using the Qualcomm ICE (Inline Crypto Engine) and HWKM (Hardware Key Manager). The corresponding driver support is included in the SCSI tree for 6.16. Validation for this feature includes two new tests that were already merged into xfstests (generic/368 and generic/369). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQSacvsUNc7UX4ntmEPzXCl4vpKOKwUCaDNaqxQcZWJpZ2dlcnNA Z29vZ2xlLmNvbQAKCRDzXCl4vpKOK1K7AP92naB88sRzH1KG7Oic9+dMK+PImARP f15ebG2TzQ3qBgEAreqtNmtCNOH7pguYsTeAcX3Y243vzIkwkDRGk7k+aAI= =P6Sj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'fscrypt-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/linux Pull fscrypt update from Eric Biggers: "Add support for 'hardware-wrapped inline encryption keys' to fscrypt.

bcachefs updates for 6.16
Lots of changes: - Poisoned extents can now be moved: this lets us handle bitrotted data without deleting it. For now, reading from poisoned extents only returns -EIO: in the future we'll have an API for specifying "read this data even if there were bitflips". - Incompatible features may now be enabled at runtime, via "opts/version_upgrade" in sysfs. Toggle it to incompatible, and then toggle it back - option changes via the sysfs interface are persistent. - Various changes to support deployable disk images: - RO mounts now use less memory - Images may be stripped of alloc info, particularly useful for slimming them down if they will primarily be mounted RO. Alloc info will be automatically regenerated on first RW mount, and this is quite fast. - Filesystem images generated with 'bcachefs image' will be automatically resized the first time they're mounted on a larger device. The images 'bcachefs image' generates with compression enabled have been comparable in size to those generated by squashfs and erofs - but you get a full RW capable filesystem. - Major error message improvements for btree node reads, data reads, and elsewhere. We now build up a single error message that lists all the errors encountered, actions taken to repair, and success/failure of the IO. This extends to other error paths that may kick off other actions, e.g. scheduling recovery passes: actions we took because of an error are included in that error message, with grouping/indentation so we can see what caused what. - Repair/self healing: - We can now kick off recovery passes and run them in the background if we detect errors. Currently, this is just used by code that walks backpointers; we now also check for missing backpointers at runtime and run check_extents_to_backpointers if required. The messy 6.14 upgrade left missing backpointers for some users, and this will correct that automatically instead of requiring a manual fsck - some users noticed this as copygc spinning and not making progress. In the future, as more recovery passes come online, we'll be able to repair and recover from nearly anything - except for unreadable btree nodes, and that's why you're using replication, of course - without shutting down the filesystem. - There's a new recovery pass, for checking the rebalance_work btree, which tracks extents that rebalance will process later. - Hardening: - Close the last known hole in btree iterator/btree locking assertions: path->should_be_locked paths must stay locked until the end of the transaction. This shook out a few bugs, including a performance issue that was causing unnecessary path_upgrade transaction restarts. - Performance; - Faster snapshot deletion: this is an incompatible feature, as it requires new sentinal values, for safety.

For now, reading from poisoned extents only returns -EIO: in the future we'll have an API for specifying "read this data even if there were bitflips". - Incompatible features may now be enabled at runtime, via "opts/version_upgrade" in sysfs. Toggle it to incompatible, and then toggle it back - option changes via the sysfs interface are persistent. - Various changes to support deployable disk images: - RO mounts now use less memory - Images may be stripped of alloc info, particularly useful for slimming them down if they will primarily be mounted RO. Alloc info will be automatically regenerated on first RW mount, and this is quite fast - Filesystem images generated with 'bcachefs image' will be automatically resized the first time they're mounted on a larger device The images 'bcachefs image' generates with compression enabled have been comparable in size to those generated by squashfs and erofs - but you get a full RW capable filesystem - Major error message improvements for btree node reads, data reads, and elsewhere. We now build up a single error message that lists all the errors encountered, actions taken to repair, and success/failure of the IO. This extends to other error paths that may kick off other actions, e.g. scheduling recovery passes: actions we took because of an error are included in that error message, with grouping/indentation so we can see what caused what. - New option, 'rebalance_on_ac_only'. Does exactly what the name suggests, quite handy with background compression. - Repair/self healing: - We can now kick off recovery passes and run them in the background if we detect errors. Currently, this is just used by code that walks backpointers. We now also check for missing backpointers at runtime and run check_extents_to_backpointers if required. The messy 6.14 upgrade left missing backpointers for some users, and this will correct that automatically instead of requiring a manual fsck - some users noticed this as copygc spinning and not making progress. In the future, as more recovery passes come online, we'll be able to repair and recover from nearly anything - except for unreadable btree nodes, and that's why you're using replication, of course - without shutting down the filesystem. - There's a new recovery pass, for checking the rebalance_work btree, which tracks extents that rebalance will process later. - Hardening: - Close the last known hole in btree iterator/btree locking assertions: path->should_be_locked paths must stay locked until the end of the transaction. This shook out a few bugs, including a performance issue that was causing unnecessary path_upgrade transaction restarts. - Performance: - Faster snapshot deletion: this is an incompatible feature, as it requires new sentinal values, for safety. Snapshot deletion no longer has to do a full metadata scan, it now just scans the inodes btree: if an extent/dirent/xattr is present for a given snapshot ID, we already require that an inode be present with that same snapshot ID.

Features: - Use folios for symlinks in the page cache FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page() - Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS inode->i_mutex level - Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently allow through out sysctl interface A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2 million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries after initialization To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1. Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache recovery completes To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100 of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache pressure control The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1, vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20 million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode restart performance degradation - Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely() - Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when descending into devcgroup_inode_permission() - Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput() - Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert. Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode - Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their own private superblock - Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock - Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior - Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead() Cleanups: - Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers - Try to remove the uselib() system call - Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll - Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select - Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse - Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir() - Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages - Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs documentation - Update main netfs API document - Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan() - Remove unnecessary NULL-check guards during setns() - Add separate separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op cases Fixes: - Fix typo in root= kernel parameter description - Use KERN_INFO for infof()|info_plog()|infofc() - Correct comments of fs_validate_description() - Mark an unlikely if condition with unlikely() in vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() - Delete macro fsparam_u32hex() - Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table() - Fix potential unsigned integer underflow in fs_name() - Make file-nr output the total allocated file handles" * tag 'vfs-6.16-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (43 commits) fs: Pass a folio to page_put_link() nfs: Use a folio in nfs_get_link() fs: Convert __page_get_link() to use a folio fs/read_write: make default_llseek() killable fs/open: make do_truncate() killable fs/open: make chmod_common() and chown_common() killable include/linux/fs.h: add inode_lock_killable() readdir: supply dir_context.count as readdir buffer size hint vfs: Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations fuse: don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying Documentation: fix typo in root= kernel parameter description include/cgroup: separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op case kernel/nsproxy: remove unnecessary guards fs: use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages fs: remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan() fs: add S_ANON_INODE fs: remove uselib() system call device_cgroup: avoid access to ->i_rdev in the common case in devcgroup_inode_permission() fs/fs_parse: Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table() fs: touch up predicts in inode_permission() ... |

erofs: add 'fsoffset' mount option to specify filesystem offset
When attempting to use an archive file, such as APEX on android, as a file-backed mount source, it fails because EROFS image within the archive file does not start at offset 0. As a result, a loop or a dm device is still needed to attach the image file at an appropriate offset first. Similarly, if an EROFS image within a block device does not start at offset 0, it cannot be mounted directly either. To address this issue, this patch adds a new mount option `fsoffset=x' to accept a start offset for the primary device. The offset should be aligned to the block size. EROFS will add this offset before performing read requests.

These days we're seeing more desktop usage - where we really want to let the system idle effictively, to reduce total power usage - while also still balancing previous concerns, we still want to let work accumulate to a degree.

saner calling conventions for ->d_automount()
Currently the calling conventions for ->d_automount() instances have an odd wart - returned new mount to be attached is expected to have refcount 2. That kludge is intended to make sure that mark_mounts_for_expiry() called before we get around to attaching that new mount to the tree won't decide to take it out. finish_automount() drops the extra reference after it's done with attaching mount to the tree - or drops the reference twice in case of error. ->d_automount() instances have rather counterintuitive boilerplate in them. There's a much simpler approach: have mark_mounts_for_expiry() skip the mounts that are yet to be mounted. And to hell with grabbing/dropping those extra references. Makes for simpler correctness analysis, at that...

ovl: relax redirect/metacopy requirements for lower -> data redirect
Allow the special case of a redirect from a lower layer to a data layer without having to turn on metacopy. This makes the feature work with userxattr, which in turn allows data layers to be usable in user namespaces. Minimize the risk by only enabling redirect from a single lower layer to a data layer iff a data layer is specified. The only way to access a data layer is to enable this, so there's really no reason not to enable this. This can be used safely if the lower layer is read-only and the user.overlay.redirect xattr cannot be modified.

Documentation: iomap: Add missing flags description
Let's document the use of these flags in iomap design doc where other
flags are defined too -
- IOMAP_F_BOUNDARY was added by XFS to prevent merging of I/O and I/O
completions across RTG boundaries.
- IOMAP_F_ATOMIC_BIO was added for supporting atomic I/O operations
for filesystems to inform the iomap that it needs HW-offload based
mechanism for torn-write protection.
While we are at it, let's also fix the description of IOMAP_F_PRIVATE
flag after a recent:

fscrypt: add support for hardware-wrapped keys
Add support for hardware-wrapped keys to fscrypt. Such keys are protected from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks. For more information, see the "Hardware-wrapped keys" section of Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst. To support hardware-wrapped keys in fscrypt, we allow the fscrypt master keys to be hardware-wrapped. File contents encryption is done by passing the wrapped key to the inline encryption hardware via blk-crypto. Other fscrypt operations such as filenames encryption continue to be done by the kernel, using the "software secret" which the hardware derives. For more information, see the documentation which this patch adds to Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst. Note that this feature doesn't require any filesystem-specific changes. However it does depend on inline encryption support, and thus currently it is only applicable to ext4 and f2fs. The version of this feature introduced by this patch is mostly equivalent to the version that has existed downstream in the Android Common Kernels since 2020. However, a couple fixes are included. First, the flags field in struct fscrypt_add_key_arg is now placed in the proper location. Second, key identifiers for HW-wrapped keys are now derived using a distinct HKDF context byte; this fixes a bug where a raw key could have the same identifier as a HW-wrapped key. Note that as a result of these fixes, the version of this feature introduced by this patch is not UAPI or on-disk format compatible with the version in the Android Common Kernels, though the divergence is limited to just those specific fixes. This version should be used going forwards. This patch has been heavily rewritten from the original version by Gaurav Kashyap <quic_gaurkash@quicinc.com> and Barani Muthukumaran <bmuthuku@codeaurora.org>.

Use try_lookup_noperm() instead of d_hash_and_lookup() outside of VFS
try_lookup_noperm() and d_hash_and_lookup() are nearly identical. The former does some validation of the name where the latter doesn't. Outside of the VFS that validation is likely valuable, and having only one exported function for this task is certainly a good idea. So make d_hash_and_lookup() local to VFS files and change all other callers to try_lookup_noperm(). Note that the arguments are swapped.

VFS: rename lookup_one_len family to lookup_noperm and remove permission check
The lookup_one_len family of functions is (now) only used internally by a filesystem on itself either - in a context where permission checking is irrelevant such as by a virtual filesystem populating itself, or xfs accessing its ORPHANAGE or dquota accessing the quota file; or - in a context where a permission check (MAY_EXEC on the parent) has just been performed such as a network filesystem finding in "silly-rename" file in the same directory. This is also the context after the _parentat() functions where currently lookup_one_qstr_excl() is used. So the permission check is pointless. The name "one_len" is unhelpful in understanding the purpose of these functions and should be changed. Most of the callers pass the len as "strlen()" so using a qstr and QSTR() can simplify the code. This patch renames these functions (include lookup_positive_unlocked() which is part of the family despite the name) to have a name based on "lookup_noperm". They are changed to receive a 'struct qstr' instead of separate name and len. In a few cases the use of QSTR() results in a new call to strlen(). try_lookup_noperm() takes a pointer to a qstr instead of the whole qstr. This is consistent with d_hash_and_lookup() (which is nearly identical) and useful for lookup_noperm_unlocked(). The new lookup_noperm_common() doesn't take a qstr yet. That will be tidied up in a subsequent patch.

VFS: improve interface for lookup_one functions
The family of functions: lookup_one() lookup_one_unlocked() lookup_one_positive_unlocked() appear designed to be used by external clients of the filesystem rather than by filesystems acting on themselves as the lookup_one_len family are used. They are used by: btrfs/ioctl - which is a user-space interface rather than an internal activity exportfs - i.e. from nfsd or the open_by_handle_at interface overlayfs - at access the underlying filesystems smb/server - for file service They should be used by nfsd (more than just the exportfs path) and cachefs but aren't. It would help if the documentation didn't claim they should "not be called by generic code". Also the path component name is passed as "name" and "len" which are (confusingly?) separate by the "base". In some cases the len in simply "strlen" and so passing a qstr using QSTR() would make the calling clearer. Other callers do pass separate name and len which are stored in a struct. Sometimes these are already stored in a qstr, other times it easily could be. So this patch changes these three functions to receive a 'struct qstr *', and improves the documentation. QSTR_LEN() is added to make it easy to pass a QSTR containing a known len.

Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page initialization. - The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page balancing code. - The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention is updated accordingly. - The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc. - The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as it claims. - The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case checks. - The series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code. - The series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped exclusively into a single MM. - The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters. - The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical. - The series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs access to DAMON internal data. - The series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and cmdline options. - The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are generated. - The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during an xarray split. - The series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code. - The series "Add tracepoints for lowmem reserves, watermarks and totalreserve_pages" from Martin Liu adds some more tracepoints to the page allocator code. - The series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications" from SeongJae Park cleans up some warts which SeongJae observed during his earlier madvise work. - The series "mm/hwpoison: Fix regressions in memory failure handling" from Shuai Xue addresses two quite serious regressions which Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation. - The series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing fragmentation. - The series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of memdescs. - The series "track memory used by balloon drivers" from Nico Pache introduces a way to track memory used by our various balloon drivers. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages, separately for file and anon pages. - The series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct reclaim statistics. - The series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio" from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the reclaim code. * tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (431 commits) mm/page_alloc: remove unnecessary __maybe_unused in order_to_pindex() x86/mm: restore early initialization of high_memory for 32-bits mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio mm/hwpoison: introduce folio_contain_hwpoisoned_page() helper cgroup: docs: add pswpin and pswpout items in cgroup v2 doc mm: vmscan: split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim statistics selftests/mm: speed up split_huge_page_test selftests/mm: uffd-unit-tests support for hugepages > 2M docs/mm/damon/design: document active DAMOS filter type mm/damon: implement a new DAMOS filter type for active pages fs/dax: don't disassociate zero page entries MM documentation: add "Unaccepted" meminfo entry selftests/mm: add commentary about 9pfs bugs fork: use __vmalloc_node() for stack allocation docs/mm: Physical Memory: Populate the "Zones" section xen: balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state hv_balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state balloon_compaction: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state meminfo: add a per node counter for balloon drivers mm: remove references to folio in __memcg_kmem_uncharge_page() ... |

NFSD 6.15 Release Notes
Neil Brown contributed more scalability improvements to NFSD's open file cache, and Jeff Layton contributed a menagerie of repairs to NFSD's NFSv4 callback / backchannel implementation. Mike Snitzer contributed a change to NFS re-export support that disables support for file locking on a re-exported NFSv4 mount. This is because NFSv4 state recovery is currently difficult if not impossible for re-exported NFS mounts. The change aims to prevent data integrity exposures after the re-export server crashes. Work continues on the evolving NFSD netlink administrative API. Many thanks to the contributors, reviewers, testers, and bug reporters who participated during the v6.15 development cycle. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEEKLLlsBKG3yQ88j7+M2qzM29mf5cFAmfmpMIACgkQM2qzM29m f5f6DA/+P0YqoRg3Zk/4oWwXZWbfEOMhWFltT+D1PE2QjUfOZpiwUSFQfsfYgXO6 OFu0iDQ4g8BxBeP6Umv61qy7Cv6n4fVzIHqzymXQvymh9JzoQiXlE9/fA8nAHuiH u7kkNPRi7faBz1sMg/WpN9CHctg7STPOhhG/JrZcSFZnh87mU1i4i4bZBNz8tVnK ZWf483OUuSmJY2/bUTkwvr4GbceTKBlLWFFjiRhfAKvJBWvu4myfC0DI5QzxmsgI MJ62do7AFJP1ww2Ih9LLi2kFIt/yyInSVAgyts1CPhlJ4BfPnTSOw/i2+CuF3D/M bZYEAOjH3AqjBZmq58sIQezpD5f9/TOrTSwYwS31zl/THYE413WiW80/MDoWqo0y 9cSNkD3nJlPVLLCfF58vXLoe7wpLoN/ZbTdxoozzUWEFR5A4Jz3XP8F/Cws0cjem uWWAQMItiQpg1+RYJYfu4dg5+iN6dbgYbvzlr7buISwFNXi3Zo99MkJ4wHj9TJbL Tpjth1rWGPwwSOMT6ojKiYMq1oUzx5PuAm9Saq9oIzQAbBySmxHF/LSDz3wEuBoO MK1jzKroEmMk3fJOOAajSDLOdAbL3vfj6H/xi2IHvKnaz9yHCZNu2YGV05BBMprd hWePf69AO5Ky5Q9KuGClEtwvJ9ZR5pb4DO2dqaYu8ximu3O4vPo= =e2E2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'nfsd-6.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever: "Neil Brown contributed more scalability improvements to NFSD's open file cache, and Jeff Layton contributed a menagerie of repairs to NFSD's NFSv4 callback / backchannel implementation.

bcachefs updates for 6.15
On disk format is now soft frozen: no more required/automatic are anticipated before taking off the experimental label. Major changes/features since 6.14: - Scrub - Blocksize greater than page size support - A number of "rebalance spinning and doing no work" issues have been fixed; we now check if the write allocation will succeed in bch2_data_update_init(), before kicking off the read. There's still more work to do in this area. Later we may want to add another bitset btree, like rebalance_work, to track "extents that rebalance was requested to move but couldn't", e.g. due to destination target having insufficient online devices. - We can now support scaling well into the petabyte range: latest bcachefs-tools will pick an appropriate bucket size at format time to ensure fsck can run in available memory (e.g. a server with 256GB of ram and 100PB of storage would want 16MB buckets). On disk format changes: - 1.21: cached backpointers (scalability improvement) Cached replicas now get backpointers, which means we no longer rely on incrementing bucket generation numbers to invalidate cached data: this lets us get rid of the bucket generation number garbage collection, which had to periodically rescan all extents to recompute bucket oldest_gen. Bucket generation numbers are now only used as a consistency check, but they're quite useful for that. - 1.22: stripe backpointers Stripes now have backpointers: erasure coded stripes have their own checksums, separate from the checksums for the extents they contain (and stripe checksums also cover the parity blocks). This is required for implementing scrub for stripes. - 1.23: stripe lru (scalability improvement) Persistent lru for stripes, ordered by "number of empty blocks". This is used by the stripe creation path, which depending on free space may create a new stripe out of a partially empty existing stripe instead of starting a brand new stripe. This replaces an in-memory heap, and means we no longer have to read in the stripes btree at startup. - 1.24: casefolding Case insensitive directory support, courtesy of Valve. This is an incompatible feature, to enable mount with -o version_upgrade=incompatible - 1.25: extent_flags Another incompatible feature requiring explicit opt-in to enable. This adds a flags entry to extents, and a flag bit that marks extents as poisoned. A poisoned extent is an extent that was unreadable due to checksum errors. We can't move such extents without giving them a new checksum, and we may have to move them (for e.g. copygc or device evacuate). We also don't want to delete them: in the future we'll have an API that lets userspace ignore checksum errors and attempt to deal with simple bitrot itself. Marking them as poisoned lets us continue to return the correct error to userspace on normal read calls. Other changes/features: - BCH_IOCTL_QUERY_COUNTERS: this is used by the new 'bcachefs fs top' command, which shows a live view of all internal filesystem counters. - Improved journal pipelining: we can now have 16 journal writes in flight concurrently, up from 4. We're logging significantly more to the journal than we used to with all the recent disk accounting changes and additions, so some users should see a performance increase on some workloads. - BCH_MEMBER_STATE_failed: previously, we would do no IO at all to devices marked as failed. Now we will attempt to read from them, but only if we have no better options. - New option, write_error_timeout: devices will be kicked out of the filesystem if all writes have been failing for x number of seconds. We now also kick devices out when notified by blk_holder_ops that they've gone offline. - Device option handling improvements: the discard option should now be working as expected (additionally, in -tools, all device options that can be set at format time can now be set at device add time, i.e. data_allowed, state). - We now try harder to read data after a checksum error: we'll do additional retries if necessary to a device after after it gave us data with a checksum error. - More self healing work: the full inode <-> dirent consistency checks that are currently run by fsck are now also run every time we do a lookup, meaning we'll be able to correct errors at runtime. Runtime self healing will be flipped on after the new changes have seen more testing, currently they're just checking for consistency. - KMSAN fixes: our KMSAN builds should be nearly clean now, which will put a massive dent in the syzbot dashboard. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEKnAFLkS8Qha+jvQrE6szbY3KbnYFAmfhbnsACgkQE6szbY3K bnY6ew/9FXh3m71BvVpuqTYcUGzIC7gVrnkFy6n4W96v07OjSOoTNHOVVovajxc3 P9LvA77BHC4Xro3H7ORpsIurOZUc6yx18ZizzulVbQFuYa7LY/kNri4ZBtGHcRiV pIdQDLSNmwFjPA4x2S1qTFSF1c586lad+UNQiLam5ophBwQPEO6vG51ZEHa4wld9 +OhWTDYfrvij4D3Lt1ppvhuDP+PQBjhu/QFc0bGjHvKOjfV6sw9XU91sCYKOJIzd qzpsiQd5sepnX717Br3f5SLdxMq2lJYvRp9756vltOCaMBvJYJtHqtXCglHQEkFw yjhmPjk4r3VlKTF8K+wEJfAHwbC2kEn7csJNbt0+Nko5PPtFyrb8ok6QUbHCKscL L0VMnzaXHVqvG2VgYa31temfdz7HM/zHjQ8Al3eQPaqTHIoTXIBQxOQSea/apVMt TIlastvLoHfR8W7+LrwOmTjnBJGCJ+MrdcJzJDVk2tQmmcMA0boeZvl4aSklFuyB zNN5fxp0VMsxNyIHLJjQ3UcwVqHXC5w+f5H1ByQLUyQh+m/xaAaz7S+BTVdVbFPa 1Z1xDuvuHOTnjIOamnOD1l36afJnhq5RciPCXCNtQSB819mc+AfNGQNQTVNOTReC iTiUCcNxu0/DIPlPmeJzAlukVJUgz+/knOI/6zPs3eI7/o88ZGg= =k3cV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'bcachefs-2025-03-24' of git://evilpiepirate.org/bcachefs Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet: "On disk format is now soft frozen: no more required/automatic are anticipated before taking off the experimental label.

f2fs-for-6.15-rc1

meminfo: add a per node counter for balloon drivers
Patch series "track memory used by balloon drivers", v2. This series introduces a way to track memory used by balloon drivers. Add a NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track how many pages are reclaimed by the balloon drivers. First add the accounting, then updates the balloon drivers (virtio, Hyper-V, VMware, Pseries-cmm, and Xen) to maintain this counter. The virtio, Vmware, and pseries-cmm balloon drivers utilize the balloon_compaction interface to allocate and free balloon pages. Other balloon drivers will have to maintain this counter manually. This makes the information visible in memory reporting interfaces like /proc/meminfo, show_mem, and OOM reporting. This provides admins visibility into their VM balloon sizes without requiring different virtualization tooling. Furthermore, this information is helpful when debugging an OOM inside a VM. This patch (of 4): Add NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track memory used by balloon drivers and expose it through /proc/meminfo and other memory reporting interfaces.

iomap: rework IOMAP atomic flags
Flag IOMAP_ATOMIC_SW is not really required. The idea of having this flag is that the FS ->iomap_begin callback could check if this flag is set to decide whether to do a SW (FS-based) atomic write. But the FS can set which ->iomap_begin callback it wants when deciding to do a FS-based atomic write. Furthermore, it was thought that IOMAP_ATOMIC_HW is not a proper name, as the block driver can use SW-methods to emulate an atomic write. So change back to IOMAP_ATOMIC. The ->iomap_begin callback needs though to indicate to iomap core that REQ_ATOMIC needs to be set, so add IOMAP_F_ATOMIC_BIO for that. These changes were suggested by Christoph Hellwig and Dave Chinner.

mm: stop maintaining the per-page mapcount of large folios (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Everything is in place to stop using the per-page mapcounts in large folios: the mapcount of tail pages will always be logically 0 (-1 value), just like it currently is for hugetlb folios already, and the page mapcount of the head page is either 0 (-1 value) or contains a page type (e.g., hugetlb). Maintaining _nr_pages_mapped without per-page mapcounts is impossible, so that one also has to go with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. There are two remaining implications: (1) Per-node, per-cgroup and per-lruvec stats of "NR_ANON_MAPPED" ("mapped anonymous memory") and "NR_FILE_MAPPED" ("mapped file memory"): As soon as any page of the folio is mapped -- folio_mapped() -- we now account the complete folio as mapped. Once the last page is unmapped -- !folio_mapped() -- we account the complete folio as unmapped. This implies that ... * "AnonPages" and "Mapped" in /proc/meminfo and /sys/devices/system/node/*/meminfo * cgroup v2: "anon" and "file_mapped" in "memory.stat" and "memory.numa_stat" * cgroup v1: "rss" and "mapped_file" in "memory.stat" and "memory.numa_stat ... can now appear higher than before. But note that these folios do consume that memory, simply not all pages are actually currently mapped. It's worth nothing that other accounting in the kernel (esp. cgroup charging on allocation) is not affected by this change. [why oh why is "anon" called "rss" in cgroup v1] (2) Detecting partial mappings Detecting whether anon THPs are partially mapped gets a bit more unreliable. As long as a single MM maps such a large folio ("exclusively mapped"), we can reliably detect it. Especially before fork() / after a short-lived child process quit, we will detect partial mappings reliably, which is the common case. In essence, if the average per-page mapcount in an anon THP is < 1, we know for sure that we have a partial mapping. However, as soon as multiple MMs are involved, we might miss detecting partial mappings: this might be relevant with long-lived child processes. If we have a fully-mapped anon folio before fork(), once our child processes and our parent all unmap (zap/COW) the same pages (but not the complete folio), we might not detect the partial mapping. However, once the child processes quit we would detect the partial mapping. How relevant this case is in practice remains to be seen. Swapout/migration will likely mitigate this. In the future, RMAP walkers could check for that for that case (e.g., when collecting access bits during reclaim) and simply flag them for deferred-splitting.

fs/proc/task_mmu: remove per-page mapcount dependency for smaps/smaps_rollup (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. When computing the output for smaps / smaps_rollups, in particular when calculating the USS (Unique Set Size) and the PSS (Proportional Set Size), we still rely on per-page mapcounts. To determine private vs. shared, we'll use folio_likely_mapped_shared(), similar to how we handle PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE. Similarly, we might now under-estimate the USS and count pages towards "shared" that are actually "private" ("exclusively mapped"). When calculating the PSS, we'll now also use the average per-page mapcount for large folios: this can result in both, an over-estimation and an under-estimation of the PSS. The difference is not expected to matter much in practice, but we'll have to learn as we go. We can now provide folio_precise_page_mapcount() only with CONFIG_PAGE_MAPCOUNT, and remove one of the last users of per-page mapcounts when CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT is enabled. Document the new behavior.

dcssblk: mark DAX broken, remove FS_DAX_LIMITED support
The dcssblk driver has long needed special case supoprt to enable limited dax operation, so called CONFIG_FS_DAX_LIMITED. This mode works around the incomplete support for ZONE_DEVICE on s390 by forgoing the ability of dax-mapped pages to support GUP. Now, pending cleanups to fsdax that fix its reference counting [1] depend on the ability of all dax drivers to supply ZONE_DEVICE pages. To allow that work to move forward, dax support needs to be paused for dcssblk until ZONE_DEVICE support arrives. That work has been known for a few years [2], and the removal of "pte_devmap" requirements [3] makes the conversion easier. For now, place the support behind CONFIG_BROKEN, and remove PFN_SPECIAL (dcssblk was the only user).

More information is provided in Documentation/bcachefs/casefolding.rst Compatibility notes: This uses the new versioning scheme for incompatible features where an incompatible feature is tied to a version number: the superblock says "we may use incompat features up to x" and "incompat features up to x are in use", disallowing mounting by previous versions. Additionally, and old style incompat feature bit is used, so that kernels without utf8 casefolding support know if casefolding specifically is in use and they're allowed to mount.

nfsd: disallow file locking and delegations for NFSv4 reexport
We do not and cannot support file locking with NFS reexport over NFSv4.x for the same reason we don't do it for NFSv3: NFS reexport server reboot cannot allow clients to recover locks because the source NFS server has not rebooted, and so it is not in grace. Since the source NFS server is not in grace, it cannot offer any guarantees that the file won't have been changed between the locks getting lost and any attempt to recover/reclaim them. The same applies to delegations and any associated locks, so disallow them too. Clients are no longer allowed to get file locks or delegations from a reexport server, any attempts will fail with operation not supported.

iomap: Support SW-based atomic writes
Currently atomic write support requires dedicated HW support. This imposes a restriction on the filesystem that disk blocks need to be aligned and contiguously mapped to FS blocks to issue atomic writes. XFS has no method to guarantee FS block alignment for regular, non-RT files. As such, atomic writes are currently limited to 1x FS block there. To deal with the scenario that we are issuing an atomic write over misaligned or discontiguous data blocks - and raise the atomic write size limit - support a SW-based software emulated atomic write mode. For XFS, this SW-based atomic writes would use CoW support to issue emulated untorn writes. It is the responsibility of the FS to detect discontiguous atomic writes and switch to IOMAP_DIO_ATOMIC_SW mode and retry the write. Indeed, SW-based atomic writes could be used always when the mounted bdev does not support HW offload, but this strategy is not initially expected to be used. Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

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.

Currently overlayfs uses the mounter's credentials for it's override_creds() calls. That provides a consistent permission model. This patches allows a caller to instruct overlayfs to use its credentials instead. The caller must be located in the same user namespace hierarchy as the user namespace the overlayfs instance will be mounted in. This provides a consistent and simple security model. With this it is possible to e.g., mount an overlayfs instance where the mounter must have CAP_SYS_ADMIN but the credentials used for override_creds() have dropped CAP_SYS_ADMIN. It also allows the usage of custom fs{g,u}id different from the callers and other tweaks.

VFS: add common error checks to lookup_one_qstr_excl()
Callers of lookup_one_qstr_excl() often check if the result is negative or positive. These changes can easily be moved into lookup_one_qstr_excl() by checking the lookup flags: LOOKUP_CREATE means it is NOT an error if the name doesn't exist. LOOKUP_EXCL means it IS an error if the name DOES exist. This patch adds these checks, then removes error checks from callers, and ensures that appropriate flags are passed. This subtly changes the meaning of LOOKUP_EXCL. Previously it could only accompany LOOKUP_CREATE. Now it can accompany LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET as well. A couple of small changes are needed to accommodate this. The NFS change is functionally a no-op but ensures nfs_is_exclusive_create() does exactly what the name says.

VFS: change kern_path_locked() and user_path_locked_at() to never return negative dentry
No callers of kern_path_locked() or user_path_locked_at() want a
negative dentry. So change them to return -ENOENT instead. This
simplifies callers.
This results in a subtle change to bcachefs in that an ioctl will now
return -ENOENT in preference to -EXDEV. I believe this restores the
behaviour to what it was prior to

iomap: add a IOMAP_F_ANON_WRITE flag
Add a IOMAP_F_ANON_WRITE flag that indicates that the write I/O does not have a target block assigned to it yet at iomap time and the file system will do that in the bio submission handler, splitting the I/O as needed. This is used to implement Zone Append based I/O for zoned XFS, where splitting writes to the hardware limits and assigning a zone to them happens just before sending the I/O off to the block layer, but could also be useful for other things like compressed I/O.

Change ->prepare_ioend to ->submit_ioend and require file systems that implement it to submit the bio.

Provide stable parent and name to ->d_revalidate() instances
Most of the filesystem methods where we care about dentry name and parent have their stability guaranteed by the callers; ->d_revalidate() is the major exception. It's easy enough for callers to supply stable values for expected name and expected parent of the dentry being validated.

Driver core and debugfs updates
Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1. It's coming late in the merge cycle as there are a number of merge conflicts with your tree now, and I wanted to make sure they were working properly. To resolve them, look in linux-next, and I will send the "fixup" patch as a response to the pull request. Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window. There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment. Here's a short list of the things in here: - driver core bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions. We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now, depending on what you want to do. - misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use them - debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things in complex ways. - driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall. - other small fixes and updates All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved "soon".
