Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Free up FMODE_* bits. I've freed up bits 6, 7, 8, and 24. That
means we now have six free FMODE_* bits in total (but bit #6
already got used for FMODE_WRITE_RESTRICTED)
- Add FOP_HUGE_PAGES flag (follow-up to FMODE_* cleanup)
- Add fd_raw cleanup class so we can make use of automatic cleanup
provided by CLASS(fd_raw, f)(fd) for O_PATH fds as well
- Optimize seq_puts()
- Simplify __seq_puts()
- Add new anon_inode_getfile_fmode() api to allow specifying f_mode
instead of open-coding it in multiple places
- Annotate struct file_handle with __counted_by() and use
struct_size()
- Warn in get_file() whether f_count resurrection from zero is
attempted (epoll/drm discussion)
- Folio-sophize aio
- Export the subvolume id in statx() for both btrfs and bcachefs
- Relax linkat(AT_EMPTY_PATH) requirements
- Add F_DUPFD_QUERY fcntl() allowing to compare two file descriptors
for dup*() equality replacing kcmp()
Cleanups:
- Compile out swapfile inode checks when swap isn't enabled
- Use (1 << n) notation for FMODE_* bitshifts for clarity
- Remove redundant variable assignment in fs/direct-io
- Cleanup uses of strncpy in orangefs
- Speed up and cleanup writeback
- Move fsparam_string_empty() helper into header since it's currently
open-coded in multiple places
- Add kernel-doc comments to proc_create_net_data_write()
- Don't needlessly read dentry->d_flags twice
Fixes:
- Fix out-of-range warning in nilfs2
- Fix ecryptfs overflow due to wrong encryption packet size
calculation
- Fix overly long line in xfs file_operations (follow-up to FMODE_*
cleanup)
- Don't raise FOP_BUFFER_{R,W}ASYNC for directories in xfs (follow-up
to FMODE_* cleanup)
- Don't call xfs_file_open from xfs_dir_open (follow-up to FMODE_*
cleanup)
- Fix stable offset api to prevent endless loops
- Fix afs file server rotations
- Prevent xattr node from overflowing the eraseblock in jffs2
- Move fdinfo PTRACE_MODE_READ procfs check into the .permission()

"This contains a few small fixes for this merge window and the attempt
to handle the ntfs removal regression that was reported a little while
ago:
- After the removal of the legacy ntfs driver we received reports
about regressions for some people that do mount "ntfs" explicitly
and expect the driver to be available. Since ntfs3 is a drop-in for
legacy ntfs we alias legacy ntfs to ntfs3 just like ext3 is aliased
to ext4.
We also enforce legacy ntfs is always mounted read-only and give it
custom file operations to ensure that ioctl()'s can't be abused to
perform write operations.
- Fix an unbalanced module_get() in bdev_open().
- Two smaller fixes for the netfs work done earlier in this cycle.
- Fix the errno returned from the new FS_IOC_GETUUID and
FS_IOC_GETFSSYSFSPATH ioctls. Both commands just pull information
out of the superblock so there's no need to call into the actual
ioctl handlers.
So instead of returning ENOIOCTLCMD to indicate to fallback we just
return ENOTTY directly avoiding that indirection"

There's a bunch of flags that are purely based on what the file
operations support while also never being conditionally set or unset.
IOW, they're not subject to change for individual files. Imho, such
flags don't need to live in f_mode they might as well live in the fops
structs itself. And the fops struct already has that lonely
mmap_supported_flags member. We might as well turn that into a generic
fop_flags member and move a few flags from FMODE_* space into FOP_*
space. That gets us four FMODE_* bits back and the ability for new
static flags that are about file ops to not have to live in FMODE_*
space but in their own FOP_* space. It's not the most beautiful thing
ever but it gets the job done. Yes, there'll be an additional pointer
chase but hopefully that won't matter for these flags.
I suspect there's a few more we can move into there and that we can also
redirect a bunch of new flag suggestions that follow this pattern into
the fop_flags field instead of f_mode.

Currently a device is only really released once the umount returns to
userspace due to how file closing works. That ultimately could cause
an old umount assumption to be violated that concurrent umount and mount
don't fail. So an exclusively held device with a temporary holder should
be yielded before the filesystem is gone. Add a helper that allows
callers to do that. This also allows us to remove the two holder ops
that Linus wasn't excited about.

The original changes in v6.8 do allow for a block device to be reopened
with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES provided the same holder is used as per
bdev_may_open(). I think this has a bug.
The first opener @f1 of that block device will set bdev->bd_writers to
-1. The second opener @f2 using the same holder will pass the check in
bdev_may_open() that bdev->bd_writers must not be greater than zero.
The first opener @f1 now closes the block device and in bdev_release()
will end up calling bdev_yield_write_access() which calls
bdev_writes_blocked() and sets bdev->bd_writers to 0 again.
Now @f2 holds a file to that block device which was opened with
exclusive write access but bdev->bd_writers has been reset to 0.
So now @f3 comes along and succeeds in opening the block device with
BLK_OPEN_WRITE betraying @f2's request to have exclusive write access.
This isn't a practical issue yet because afaict there's no codepath
inside the kernel that reopenes the same block device with
BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES but it will be if there is.
Fix this by counting the number of BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES openers. So
we only allow writes again once all BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES openers are
done.

Last kernel release we introduce CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED. By
default this option is set. When it is set the long-standing behavior
of being able to write to mounted block devices is enabled.
But in order to guard against unintended corruption by writing to the
block device buffer cache CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED can be turned
off. In that case it isn't possible to write to mounted block devices
anymore.
A filesystem may open its block devices with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES
which disallows concurrent BLK_OPEN_WRITE access. When we still had the
bdev handle around we could recognize BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES because
the mode was passed around. Since we managed to get rid of the bdev
handle we changed that logic to recognize BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES based
on whether the file was opened writable and writes to that block device
are blocked. That logic doesn't work because we do allow
BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES to be specified without BLK_OPEN_WRITE.
Fix the detection logic and use an FMODE_* bit. We could've also abused
O_EXCL as an indicator that BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES has been requested.
For userspace open paths O_EXCL will never be retained but for internal
opens where we open files that are never installed into a file
descriptor table this is fine. But it would be a gamble that this
doesn't cause bugs. Note that BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES is an internal
only flag that cannot directly be raised by userspace. It is implicitly
raised during mounting.
Passes xftests and blktests with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED set and
unset.

Now that we open block devices as files we need to deal with the
realities that closing is a deferred operation. An operation on the
block device such as e.g., freeze, thaw, or removal that runs
concurrently with umount, tries to acquire a stable reference on the
holder. The holder might already be gone though. Make that reliable by
grabbing a passive reference to the holder during bdev_open() and
releasing it during bdev_release().

We just need to use the holder to indicate whether a block device open
was exclusive or not. We did use to do that before but had to give that
up once we switched to struct bdev_handle. Before struct bdev_handle we
only stashed stuff in file->private_data if this was an exclusive open
but after struct bdev_handle we always set file->private_data to a
struct bdev_handle and so we had to use bdev_handle->mode or
bdev_handle->holder. Now that we don't use struct bdev_handle anymore we
can revert back to the old behavior.

Add two new helpers to allow opening block devices as files.
This is not the final infrastructure. This still opens the block device
before opening a struct a file. Until we have removed all references to
struct bdev_handle we can't switch the order:
* Introduce blk_to_file_flags() to translate from block specific to
flags usable to pen a new file.
* Introduce bdev_file_open_by_{dev,path}().
* Introduce temporary sb_bdev_handle() helper to retrieve a struct
bdev_handle from a block device file and update places that directly
reference struct bdev_handle to rely on it.
* Don't count block device openes against the number of open files. A
bdev_file_open_by_{dev,path}() file is never installed into any
file descriptor table.
One idea that came to mind was to use kernel_tmpfile_open() which
would require us to pass a path and it would then call do_dentry_open()
going through the regular fops->open::blkdev_open() path. But then we're
back to the problem of routing block specific flags such as
BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES through the open path and would have to waste
FMODE_* flags every time we add a new one. With this we can avoid using
a flag bit and we have more leeway in how we open block devices from
bdev_open_by_{dev,path}().

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"

The old method of implementing block device freeze and thaw operations
required us to rely on get_active_super() to walk the list of all
superblocks on the system to find any superblock that might use the
block device. This is wasteful and not very pleasant overall.
Now that we can finally go straight from block device to owning
superblock things become way simpler.

When freeze_super() is called, sync_filesystem() will be called which
calls sync_blockdev() and already surfaces any errors. Do the same for
block devices that aren't owned by a superblock and also for filesystems
that don't call sync_blockdev() internally but implicitly rely on
bdev_freeze() to do it.

We have bdev_mark_dead() etc and we're going to move block device
freezing to holder ops in the next patch. Make the naming consistent:
* freeze_bdev() -> bdev_freeze()
* thaw_bdev() -> bdev_thaw()
Also document the return code.

disk_check_media_change is mostly called from ->open where it makes
little sense to mark the file system on the device as dead, as we
are just opening it. So instead of calling bdev_mark_dead from
disk_check_media_change move it into the few callers that are not
in an open instance. This avoid calling into bdev_mark_dead and
thus taking s_umount with open_mutex held.

The implementation of bdev holder operations such as fs_bdev_mark_dead()
and fs_bdev_sync() grab sb->s_umount semaphore under
bdev->bd_holder_lock. This is problematic because it leads to
disk->open_mutex -> sb->s_umount lock ordering which is counterintuitive
(usually we grab higher level (e.g. filesystem) locks first and lower
level (e.g. block layer) locks later) and indeed makes lockdep complain
about possible locking cycles whenever we open a block device while
holding sb->s_umount semaphore. Implement a function
bdev_super_lock_shared() which safely transitions from holding
bdev->bd_holder_lock to holding sb->s_umount on alive superblock without
introducing the problematic lock dependency. We use this function
fs_bdev_sync() and fs_bdev_mark_dead().

We currently have two interfaces that take a block_devices and the find
a mounted file systems to flush or invaldidate data on it. Both are a
bit problematic because they only work for the "main" block devices
that is used as s_dev for the super_block, and because they don't call
into the file system at all.
Merge the two into a new bdev_mark_dead helper that does both the
syncing and invalidation and which is properly documented. This is
in preparation of merging the functionality into the ->mark_dead
holder operation so that it will work on additional block devices
used by a file systems and give us a single entry point for invalidation
of dead devices or media.
Note that a single standalone fsync_bdev call for an obscure ioctl
remains for now, but that one will also be deal with in a bit.

Userspace can freeze a filesystem using the FIFREEZE ioctl or by
suspending the block device; this state persists until userspace thaws
the filesystem with the FITHAW ioctl or resuming the block device.
Since commit 18e9e5104f ("Introduce freeze_super and thaw_super for
the fsfreeze ioctl") we only allow the first freeze command to succeed.
The kernel may decide that it is necessary to freeze a filesystem for
its own internal purposes, such as suspends in progress, filesystem fsck
activities, or quiescing a device prior to removal. Userspace thaw
commands must never break a kernel freeze, and kernel thaw commands
shouldn't undo userspace's freeze command.
Introduce a couple of freeze holder flags and wire it into the
sb_writers state. One kernel and one userspace freeze are allowed to
coexist at the same time; the filesystem will not thaw until both are
lifted.
I wonder if the f2fs/gfs2 code should be using a kernel freeze here, but
for now we'll use FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE to preserve existing
behaviors.

For blkdev_put this requires adding the holder argument, which provides
better debug checking that only the holder actually releases the hold,
but at the same time allows removing the now superfluous mode argument.

open("/dev/vdb", ...)
- 2 call to ->open
open("/dev/vdb", ...)
open("/dev/vdb", ...)
- just open call to ->open
This is problematic as various block drivers look at open flags and
