Tim Schumacher 5b625181fb Documentation: Mark the 'efivars' sysfs interface as removed
The 'efivars' sysfs interface was removed in commit 0f5b2c69a4 ("efi:
vars: Remove deprecated 'efivars' sysfs interface"), but the ABI
documentation was not updated properly.

Strip down the documentation file for /sys/firmware/efi/vars to a very
basic description of what the interface was about, add a section about
the rough removal timeline, and inform the reader about the intended
replacement.

Commit eb386617be ("bcachefs: Errcode tracepoint, documentation")
adds initial bcachefs documentation (private error codes) but without
any table of contents tree for the filesystem docs, hence Sphinx warns:

Documentation/filesystems/bcachefs/errorcodes.rst: WARNING: document isn't included in any toctree

Add bcachefs toctree to fix above warning.

Linus Torvalds c5d9ab85eb f2fs update for 6.9-rc1
In this round, there are a number of updates on mainly two areas: Zoned block
 device support and Per-file compression. For example, we've found several issues
 to support Zoned block device especially having large sections regarding to GC
 and file pinning used for Android devices. In compression side, we've fixed many
 corner race conditions that had broken the design assumption.
 
 Enhancement:
  - Support file pinning for Zoned block device having large section
  - Enhance the data recovery after sudden power cut on Zoned block device
  - Add more error injection cases to easily detect the kernel panics
  - add a proc entry show the entire disk layout
  - Improve various error paths paniced by BUG_ON in block allocation and GC
  - support SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE for compression files
 
 Bug fix:
  - fix to avoid use-after-free issue in f2fs_filemap_fault
  - fix some race conditions to break the atomic write design assumption
  - fix to truncate meta inode pages forcely
  - resolve various per-file compression issues wrt the space management and
    compression policies
  - fix some swap-related bugs
 
 In addition, we removed deprecated codes such as io_bits and heap_allocation,
 and also fixed minor error handling routines with neat debugging messages.

Linus Torvalds babbcc0232 New code for 6.9:
* Online Repair;
   ** New ondisk structures being repaired.
      - Inode's mode field by trying to obtain file type value from the a
        directory entry.
      - Quota counters.
      - Link counts of inodes.
      - FS summary counters.
      - rmap btrees.
        Support for in-memory btrees has been added to support repair of rmap
        btrees.
   ** Misc changes
      - Report corruption of metadata to the health tracking subsystem.
      - Enable indirect health reporting when resources are scarce.
      - Reduce memory usage while reparing refcount btree.
      - Extend "Bmap update" intent item to support atomic extent swapping on
        the realtime device.
      - Extend "Bmap update" intent item to support extended attribute fork and
        unwritten extents.
   ** Code cleanups
      - Bmap log intent.
      - Btree block pointer checking.
      - Btree readahead.
      - Buffer target.
      - Symbolic link code.
   * Remove mrlock wrapper around the rwsem.
   * Convert all the GFP_NOFS flag usages to use the scoped
     memalloc_nofs_save() API instead of direct calls with the GFP_NOFS.
   * Refactor and simplify xfile abstraction. Lower level APIs in
     shmem.c are required to be exported in order to achieve this.
   * Skip checking alignment constraints for inode chunk allocations when block
     size is larger than inode chunk size.
   * Do not submit delwri buffers collected during log recovery when an error
     has been encountered.
   * Fix SEEK_HOLE/DATA for file regions which have active COW extents.
   * Fix lock order inversion when executing error handling path during
     shrinking a filesystem.
   * Remove duplicate ifdefs.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.9.ntfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull ntfs update from Christian Brauner:
 "This removes the old ntfs driver. The new ntfs3 driver is a full
  replacement that was merged over two years ago. We've went through
  various userspace and either they use ntfs3 or they use the fuse
  version of ntfs and thus build neither ntfs nor ntfs3. I think that's
  a clear sign that we should risk removing the legacy ntfs driver.

  Quoting from Arch Linux and Debian:

   - Debian does neither build the legacy ntfs nor the new ntfs3:

     "Not currently built with Debian's kernel packages, 'ntfs' has been
      symlinked to 'ntfs-3g' as it relates to fstab and mount commands.

      Debian kernels are built without support of the ntfs3 driver
      developed by Paragon Software."  (cf. [2])

   - Archlinux provides ntfs3 as their default since 5.15:

     "All officially supported kernels with versions 5.15 or newer are
      built with CONFIG_NTFS3_FS=m and thus support it. Before 5.15,
      NTFS read and write support is provided by the NTFS-3G FUSE file
      system."  (cf. [1]).

  It's unmaintained apart from various odd fixes as well. Worst case we
  have to reintroduce it if someone really has a valid dependency on it.
  But it's worth trying to see whether we can remove it"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Misc features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual filesystems.

  Features:

   - Support idmapped mounts for hugetlbfs.

   - Add RWF_NOAPPEND flag for pwritev2(). This allows us to fix a bug
     where the passed offset is ignored if the file is O_APPEND. The new
     flag allows a caller to enforce that the offset is honored to
     conform to posix even if the file was opened in append mode.

   - Move i_mmap_rwsem in struct address_space to avoid false sharing
     between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem.

   - Convert efs, qnx4, and coda to use the new mount api.

   - Add a generic is_dot_dotdot() helper that's used by various
     filesystems and the VFS code instead of open-coding it multiple
     times.

   - Recently we've added stable offsets which allows stable ordering
     when iterating directories exported through NFS on e.g., tmpfs
     filesystems. Originally an xarray was used for the offset map but
     that caused slab fragmentation issues over time. This switches the
     offset map to the maple tree which has a dense mode that handles
     this scenario a lot better. Includes tests.

   - Finally merge the case-insensitive improvement series Gabriel has
     been working on for a long time. This cleanly propagates case
     insensitive operations through ->s_d_op which in turn allows us to
     remove the quite ugly generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops() operations.
     It also improves performance by trying a case-sensitive comparison
     first and then fallback to case-insensitive lookup if that fails.
     This also fixes a bug where overlayfs would be able to be mounted
     over a case insensitive directory which would lead to all sort of
     odd behaviors.

  Cleanups:

   - Make file_dentry() a simple accessor now that ->d_real() is
     simplified because of the backing file work we did the last two
     cycles.

   - Use the dedicated file_mnt_idmap helper in ntfs3.

   - Use smp_load_acquire/store_release() in the i_size_read/write
     helpers and thus remove the hack to handle i_size reads in the
     filemap code.

   - The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD is a nop now. Remove it from various places in
     fs/

   - It's no longer necessary to perform a second built-in initramfs
     unpack call because we retain the contents of the previous
     extraction. Remove it.

   - Now that we have removed various allocators kfree_rcu() always
     works with kmem caches and kmalloc(). So simplify various places
     that only use an rcu callback in order to handle the kmem cache
     case.

   - Convert the pipe code to use a lockdep comparison function instead
     of open-coding the nesting making lockdep validation easier.

   - Move code into fs-writeback.c that was located in a header but can
     be made static as it's only used in that one file.

   - Rewrite the alignment checking iterators for iovec and bvec to be
     easier to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of
     generated code. This saves 270 bytes of text on x86-64 (with
     clang-18) and 224 bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13). In profiles it also
     saves a bit of time for the same workload.

   - Switch various places to use KMEM_CACHE instead of
     kmem_cache_create().

   - Use inode_set_ctime_to_ts() in inode_set_ctime_current()

   - Use kzalloc() in name_to_handle_at() to avoid kernel infoleak.

   - Various smaller cleanups for eventfds.

  Fixes:

   - Fix various comments and typos, and unneeded initializations.

   - Fix stack allocation hack for clang in the select code.

   - Improve dump_mapping() debug code on a best-effort basis.

   - Fix build errors in various selftests.

   - Avoid wrap-around instrumentation in various places.

   - Don't allow user namespaces without an idmapping to be used for
     idmapped mounts.

   - Fix sysv sb_read() call.

   - Fix fallback implementation of the get_name() export operation"

Eric Biggers 2f944c66ae fscrypt: write CBC-CTS instead of CTS-CBC
Calling CBC with ciphertext stealing "CBC-CTS" seems to be more common
than calling it "CTS-CBC".  E.g., CBC-CTS is used by OpenSSL, Crypto++,
RFC3962, and RFC6803.  The NIST SP800-38A addendum uses CBC-CS1,
CBC-CS2, and CBC-CS3, distinguishing between different CTS conventions
but similarly putting the CBC part first.  In the interest of avoiding
any idiosyncratic terminology, update the fscrypt documentation and the
fscrypt_mode "friendly names" to align with the more common convention.

Changing the "friendly names" only affects some log messages.  The
actual mode constants in the API are unchanged; those call it simply
"CTS".  Add a note to the documentation that clarifies that "CBC" and
"CTS" in the API really mean CBC-ESSIV and CBC-CTS, respectively.

buffers come from a (presumably in-memory) buftarg with a header block
that's specific to in-memory btrees.  We'll connect this to other parts
of online scrub in the next patches.

Note that in-memory btrees always have a block size matching the system

Amir Goldstein 11b3f8ae70 fs: remove the inode argument to ->d_real() method
The only remaining user of ->d_real() method is d_real_inode(), which
passed NULL inode argument to get the real data dentry.

There are no longer any users that call ->d_real() with a non-NULL
inode argument for getting a detry from a specific underlying layer.

Remove the inode argument of the method and replace it with an integer
'type' argument, to allow callers to request the real metadata dentry
instead of the real data dentry.

All the current users of d_real_inode() (e.g. uprobe) continue to get
the real data inode.  Caller that need to get the real metadata inode
(e.g. IMA/EVM) can use d_inode(d_real(dentry, D_REAL_METADATA)).

After we inject fault into f2fs_is_valid_blkaddr() during truncation,
a) it missed to increase @nr_free or @valid_blocks
b) it can cause in blkaddr leak in truncated dnode
Which may cause inconsistent status.

This patch separates FAULT_BLKADDR_CONSISTENCE from FAULT_BLKADDR,
and rename FAULT_BLKADDR to FAULT_BLKADDR_VALIDITY
so that we can:
a) use FAULT_BLKADDR_CONSISTENCE in f2fs_truncate_data_blocks_range()
to simulate inconsistent issue independently, then it can verify fsck
repair flow.
b) FAULT_BLKADDR_VALIDITY fault will not cause any inconsistent status,
we can just use it to check error path handling in kernel side.

Amir Goldstein 420332b941 ovl: mark xwhiteouts directory with overlay.opaque='x'
An opaque directory cannot have xwhiteouts, so instead of marking an
xwhiteouts directory with a new xattr, overload overlay.opaque xattr
for marking both opaque dir ('y') and xwhiteouts dir ('x').

This is more efficient as the overlay.opaque xattr is checked during
lookup of directory anyway.

This also prevents unnecessary checking the xattr when reading a
directory without xwhiteouts, i.e. most of the time.

Note that the xwhiteouts marker is not checked on the upper layer and
on the last layer in lowerstack, where xwhiteouts are not expected.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.8.netfs' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This extends the netfs helper library that network filesystems can use
  to replace their own implementations. Both afs and 9p are ported. cifs
  is ready as well but the patches are way bigger and will be routed
  separately once this is merged. That will remove lots of code as well.

  The overal goal is to get high-level I/O and knowledge of the page
  cache and ouf of the filesystem drivers. This includes knowledge about
  the existence of pages and folios

  The pull request converts afs and 9p. This removes about 800 lines of
  code from afs and 300 from 9p. For 9p it is now possible to do writes
  in larger than a page chunks. Additionally, multipage folio support
  can be turned on for 9p. Separate patches exist for cifs removing
  another 2000+ lines. I've included detailed information in the
  individual pulls I took.

  Summary:

   - Add NFS-style (and Ceph-style) locking around DIO vs buffered I/O
     calls to prevent these from happening at the same time.

   - Support for direct and unbuffered I/O.

   - Support for write-through caching in the page cache.

   - O_*SYNC and RWF_*SYNC writes use write-through rather than writing
     to the page cache and then flushing afterwards.

   - Support for write-streaming.

   - Support for write grouping.

   - Skip reads for which the server could only return zeros or EOF.

   - The fscache module is now part of the netfs library and the
     corresponding maintainer entry is updated.

   - Some helpers from the fscache subsystem are renamed to mark them as
     belonging to the netfs library.

   - Follow-up fixes for the netfs library.

   - Follow-up fixes for the 9p conversion"

Pull vfs super updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the super work for this cycle including the long-awaited
  series by Jan to make it possible to prevent writing to mounted block
  devices:

   - Writing to mounted devices is dangerous and can lead to filesystem
     corruption as well as crashes. Furthermore syzbot comes with more
     and more involved examples how to corrupt block device under a
     mounted filesystem leading to kernel crashes and reports we can do
     nothing about. Add tracking of writers to each block device and a
     kernel cmdline argument which controls whether other writeable
     opens to block devices open with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES flag are
     allowed.

     Note that this effectively only prevents modification of the
     particular block device's page cache by other writers. The actual
     device content can still be modified by other means - e.g. by
     issuing direct scsi commands, by doing writes through devices lower
     in the storage stack (e.g. in case loop devices, DM, or MD are
     involved) etc. But blocking direct modifications of the block
     device page cache is enough to give filesystems a chance to perform
     data validation when loading data from the underlying storage and
     thus prevent kernel crashes.

     Syzbot can use this cmdline argument option to avoid uninteresting
     crashes. Also users whose userspace setup does not need writing to
     mounted block devices can set this option for hardening. We expect
     that this will be interesting to quite a few workloads.

     Btrfs is currently opted out of this because they still haven't
     merged patches we require for this to work from three kernel
     releases ago.

   - Reimplement block device freezing and thawing as holder operations
     on the block device.

     This allows us to extend block device freezing to all devices
     associated with a superblock and not just the main device. It also
     allows us to remove get_active_super() and thus another function
     that scans the global list of superblocks.

     Freezing via additional block devices only works if the filesystem
     chooses to use @fs_holder_ops for these additional devices as well.
     That currently only includes ext4 and xfs.

     Earlier releases switched get_tree_bdev() and mount_bdev() to use
     @fs_holder_ops. The remaining nilfs2 open-coded version of
     mount_bdev() has been converted to rely on @fs_holder_ops as well.
     So block device freezing for the main block device will continue to
     work as before.

     There should be no regressions in functionality. The only special
     case is btrfs where block device freezing for the main block device
     never worked because sb->s_bdev isn't set. Block device freezing
     for btrfs can be fixed once they can switch to @fs_holder_ops but
     that can happen whenever they're ready"

Ryan Roberts 3485b88390 mm: thp: introduce multi-size THP sysfs interface
In preparation for adding support for anonymous multi-size THP, introduce
new sysfs structure that will be used to control the new behaviours.  A
new directory is added under transparent_hugepage for each supported THP
size, and contains an `enabled` file, which can be set to "inherit" (to
inherit the global setting), "always", "madvise" or "never".  For now, the
kernel still only supports PMD-sized anonymous THP, so only 1 directory is
populated.

The first half of the change converts transhuge_vma_suitable() and
hugepage_vma_check() so that they take a bitfield of orders for which the
user wants to determine support, and the functions filter out all the
orders that can't be supported, given the current sysfs configuration and
the VMA dimensions.  The resulting functions are renamed to
thp_vma_suitable_orders() and thp_vma_allowable_orders() respectively. 
Convenience functions that take a single, unencoded order and return a
boolean are also defined as thp_vma_suitable_order() and
thp_vma_allowable_order().

The second half of the change implements the new sysfs interface.  It has
been done so that each supported THP size has a `struct thpsize`, which
describes the relevant metadata and is itself a kobject.  This is pretty
minimal for now, but should make it easy to add new per-thpsize files to
the interface if needed in future (e.g.  per-size defrag).  Rather than
keep the `enabled` state directly in the struct thpsize, I've elected to
directly encode it into huge_anon_orders_[always|madvise|inherit]
bitfields since this reduces the amount of work required in
thp_vma_allowable_orders() which is called for every page fault.

See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst, as modified by this
commit, for details of how the new sysfs interface works.

Ariel Miculas 48aa137e5a docs: filesystems: document the squashfs specific mount options
When SQUASHFS_CHOICE_DECOMP_BY_MOUNT is set, the "threads" mount option
can be used to specify the decompression mode: single-threaded,
multi-threaded, percpu or the number of threads used for decompression. 
When SQUASHFS_CHOICE_DECOMP_BY_MOUNT is not set, SQUASHFS_DECOMP_MULTI and
SQUASHFS_MOUNT_DECOMP_THREADS are both set, the "threads" option can also
be used to specify the number of threads used for decompression.  This
mount option is only mentioned in fs/squashfs/Kconfig, which makes it
difficult to find.

Another mount option available is "errors", which can be configured to
panic the kernel when squashfs errors are encountered.

Add both these options to the squashfs documentation, making them more
noticeable.

Al Viro a8b0026847 rename(): avoid a deadlock in the case of parents having no common ancestor
... and fix the directory locking documentation and proof of correctness.
Holding ->s_vfs_rename_mutex *almost* prevents ->d_parent changes; the
case where we really don't want it is splicing the root of disconnected
tree to somewhere.

In other words, ->s_vfs_rename_mutex is sufficient to stabilize "X is an
ancestor of Y" only if X and Y are already in the same tree.  Otherwise
it can go from false to true, and one can construct a deadlock on that.

Make lock_two_directories() report an error in such case and update the
callers of lock_rename()/lock_rename_child() to handle such errors.

And yes, such conditions are not impossible to create ;-/
