6d29d7fe4f NFSD 5.19 Release Notes
We introduce "courteous server" in this release. Previously NFSD
 would purge open and lock state for an unresponsive client after
 one lease period (typically 90 seconds). Now, after one lease
 period, another client can open and lock those files and the
 unresponsive client's lease is purged; otherwise if the unrespon-
 sive client's open and lock state is uncontended, the server retains
 that open and lock state for up to 24 hours, allowing the client's
 workload to resume after a lengthy network partition.
 
 A longstanding issue with NFSv4 file creation is also addressed.
 Previously a file creation can fail internally, returning an error
 to the client, but leave the newly created file in place as an
 artifact. The file creation code path has been reorganized so that
 internal failures and race conditions are less likely to result in
 an unwanted file creation.
 
 A fault injector has been added to help exercise paths that are run
 during kernel metadata cache invalidation. These caches contain
 information maintained by user space about exported filesystems.
 Many of our test workloads do not trigger cache invalidation.
 
 There is one patch that is needed to support PREEMPT_RT and a fix
 for an ancient "sleep while spin-locked" splat that seems to have
 become easier to hit since v5.18-rc3.

2443da2259 fs/lock: add 2 callbacks to lock_manager_operations to resolve conflict
Add 2 new callbacks, lm_lock_expirable and lm_expire_lock, to
lock_manager_operations to allow the lock manager to take appropriate
action to resolve the lock conflict if possible.

A new field, lm_mod_owner, is also added to lock_manager_operations.
The lm_mod_owner is used by the fs/lock code to make sure the lock
manager module such as nfsd, is not freed while lock conflict is being
resolved.

lm_lock_expirable checks and returns true to indicate that the lock
conflict can be resolved else return false. This callback must be
called with the flc_lock held so it can not block.

lm_expire_lock is called to resolve the lock conflict if the returned
value from lm_lock_expirable is true. This callback is called without
the flc_lock held since it's allowed to block. Upon returning from
this callback, the lock conflict should be resolved and the caller is
expected to restart the conflict check from the beginnning of the list.

Lock manager, such as NFSv4 courteous server, uses this callback to
resolve conflict by destroying lock owner, or the NFSv4 courtesy client
(client that has expired but allowed to maintains its states) that owns
the lock.

6b1f86f8e9 Filesystem folio changes for 5.18
Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations
 to take a folio instead of a page.
 
 ->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and changes the
 type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it obvious they're bytes.
 ->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a similar type change.
 ->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()
 ->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the address_space as
 an argument.
 
 There are a couple of other misc changes up front that weren't worth
 separating into their own pull request.

 - Copy up immutable/append/sync/noatime attributes (Amir Goldstein)

 - Improve performance by enabling RCU lookup.

 - Misc fixes and improvements

The reason this touches so many files is that the ->get_acl() method now
gets a "bool rcu" argument.  The ->get_acl() API was updated based on
comments from Al and Linus:

730633f0b7 mm: Protect operations adding pages to page cache with invalidate_lock
Currently, serializing operations such as page fault, read, or readahead
against hole punching is rather difficult. The basic race scheme is
like:

fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)			read / fault / ..
  truncate_inode_pages_range()
						  <create pages in page
						   cache here>
  <update fs block mapping and free blocks>

Now the problem is in this way read / page fault / readahead can
instantiate pages in page cache with potentially stale data (if blocks
get quickly reused). Avoiding this race is not simple - page locks do
not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given
range. inode->i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under
mmap_sem which ranks below inode->i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes
the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer.

So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock -
that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads /
readahead.

4c5b479975 vfs: add fileattr ops
There's a substantial amount of boilerplate in filesystems handling
FS_IOC_[GS]ETFLAGS/ FS_IOC_FS[GS]ETXATTR ioctls.

Also due to userspace buffers being involved in the ioctl API this is
difficult to stack, as shown by overlayfs issues related to these ioctls.

Introduce a new internal API named "fileattr" (fsxattr can be confused with
xattr, xflags is inappropriate, since this is more than just flags).

There's significant overlap between flags and xflags and this API handles
the conversions automatically, so filesystems may choose which one to use.

In ->fileattr_get() a hint is provided to the filesystem whether flags or
xattr are being requested by userspace, but in this series this hint is
ignored by all filesystems, since generating all the attributes is cheap.

If a filesystem doesn't implemement the fileattr API, just fall back to
f_op->ioctl().  When all filesystems are converted, the fallback can be
removed.

32bit compat ioctls are now handled by the generic code as well.

acl: handle idmapped mounts
The posix acl permission checking helpers determine whether a caller is
privileged over an inode according to the acls associated with the
inode. Add helpers that make it possible to handle acls on idmapped
mounts.

The vfs and the filesystems targeted by this first iteration make use of
posix_acl_fix_xattr_from_user() and posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user() to
translate basic posix access and default permissions such as the
ACL_USER and ACL_GROUP type according to the initial user namespace (or
the superblock's user namespace) to and from the caller's current user
namespace. Adapt these two helpers to handle idmapped mounts whereby we
either map from or into the mount's user namespace depending on in which
direction we're translating.
Similarly, cap_convert_nscap() is used by the vfs to translate user
namespace and non-user namespace aware filesystem capabilities from the
superblock's user namespace to the caller's user namespace. Enable it to
handle idmapped mounts by accounting for the mount's user namespace.

In addition the fileystems targeted in the first iteration of this patch
series make use of the posix_acl_chmod() and, posix_acl_update_mode()
helpers. Both helpers perform permission checks on the target inode. Let
them handle idmapped mounts. These two helpers are called when posix
acls are set by the respective filesystems to handle this case we extend
the ->set() method to take an additional user namespace argument to pass
the mount's user namespace down.

28df3d1539 nfsd: clients don't need to break their own delegations
We currently revoke read delegations on any write open or any operation
that modifies file data or metadata (including rename, link, and
unlink).  But if the delegation in question is the only read delegation
and is held by the client performing the operation, that's not really
necessary.

It's not always possible to prevent this in the NFSv4.0 case, because
there's not always a way to determine which client an NFSv4.0 delegation
came from.  (In theory we could try to guess this from the transport
layer, e.g., by assuming all traffic on a given TCP connection comes
from the same client.  But that's not really correct.)

In the NFSv4.1 case the session layer always tells us the client.

This patch should remove such self-conflicts in all cases where we can
reliably determine the client from the compound.

To do that we need to track "who" is performing a given (possibly
lease-breaking) file operation.  We're doing that by storing the
information in the svc_rqst and using kthread_data() to map the current
task back to a svc_rqst.

ec23eb54fb docs: fs: convert docs without extension to ReST
There are 3 remaining files without an extension inside the fs docs
dir.

Manually convert them to ReST.

In the case of the nfs/exporting.rst file, as the nfs docs
aren't ported yet, I opted to convert and add a :orphan: there,
with should be removed when it gets added into a nfs-specific
part of the fs documentation.
