fscrypt support to CephFS! The list of things which don't work with
encryption should be fairly short, mostly around the edges: fallocate
(not supported well in CephFS to begin with), copy_file_range (requires
re-encryption), non-default striping patterns.
This was a multi-year effort principally by Jeff Layton with assistance
from Xiubo Li, Luís Henriques and others, including several dependant
changes in the MDS, netfs helper library and fscrypt framework itself.

With madvise and prctl KSM can be enabled for different VMA's. Once it is
enabled we can query how effective KSM is overall. However we cannot
easily query if an individual VMA benefits from KSM.
This commit adds a KSM section to the /prod/<pid>/smaps file. It reports
how many of the pages are KSM pages. Note that KSM-placed zeropages are
not included, only actual KSM pages.
Here is a typical output:

This information also helps with the following workflow:
- First enable KSM for all the VMA's of a process with prctl.
- Then analyze with the above smaps report which VMA's benefit the most
- Change the application (if possible) to add the corresponding madvise
calls for the VMA's that benefit the most

I'm thrilled to announce that the Linux in-kernel NFS server now
offers NFSv4 write delegations. A write delegation enables a client
to cache data and metadata for a single file more aggressively,
reducing network round trips and server workload. Many thanks to Dai
Ngo for contributing this facility, and to Jeff Layton and Neil
Brown for reviewing and testing it.
This release also sees the removal of all support for DES- and
triple-DES-based Kerberos encryption types in the kernel's SunRPC
implementation. These encryption types have been deprecated by the
Internet community for years and are considered insecure. This
change affects both the in-kernel NFS client and server.
The server's UDP and TCP socket transports have now fully adopted
David Howells' new bio_vec iterator so that no more than one
sendmsg() call is needed to transmit each RPC message. In
particular, this helps kTLS optimize record boundaries when sending
RPC-with-TLS replies, and it takes the server a baby step closer to
handling file I/O via folios.
We've begun work on overhauling the SunRPC thread scheduler to
remove a costly linked-list walk when looking for an idle RPC
service thread to wake. The pre-requisites are included in this
release. Thanks to Neil Brown for his ongoing work on this
improvement.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
"We've got some big changes for this release -- I'm very happy to be
landing willy's work to enable large folios for the page cache for
general read and write IOs when the fs can make contiguous space
allocations, and Ritesh's work to track sub-folio dirty state to
eliminate the write amplification problems inherent in using large
folios.
As a bonus, io_uring can now process write completions in the caller's
context instead of bouncing through a workqueue, which should reduce
io latency dramatically. IOWs, XFS should see a nice performance bump
for both IO paths.
Summary:
- Make large writes to the page cache fill sparse parts of the cache
with large folios, then use large memcpy calls for the large folio.
- Track the per-block dirty state of each large folio so that a

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the super rework that was ready for this cycle. The
first part changes the order of how we open block devices and allocate
superblocks, contains various cleanups, simplifications, and a new
mechanism to wait on superblock state changes.
This unblocks work to ultimately limit the number of writers to a
block device. Jan has already scheduled follow-up work that will be
ready for v6.7 and allows us to restrict the number of writers to a
given block device. That series builds on this work right here.
The second part contains filesystem freezing updates.
Overview:
The generic superblock changes are rougly organized as follows
(ignoring additional minor cleanups):
(1) Removal of the bd_super member from struct block_device.
This was a very odd back pointer to struct super_block with
unclear rules. For all relevant places we have other means to get
the same information so just get rid of this.
(2) Simplify rules for superblock cleanup.
Roughly, everything that is allocated during fs_context
initialization and that's stored in fs_context->s_fs_info needs
to be cleaned up by the fs_context->free() implementation before
the superblock allocation function has been called successfully.
After sget_fc() returned fs_context->s_fs_info has been
transferred to sb->s_fs_info at which point sb->kill_sb() if
fully responsible for cleanup. Adhering to these rules means that
cleanup of sb->s_fs_info in fill_super() is to be avoided as it's
brittle and inconsistent.
Cleanup shouldn't be duplicated between sb->put_super() as
sb->put_super() is only called if sb->s_root has been set aka
when the filesystem has been successfully born (SB_BORN). That
complexity should be avoided.
This also means that block devices are to be closed in
sb->kill_sb() instead of sb->put_super(). More details in the
lower section.
(3) Make it possible to lookup or create a superblock before opening
block devices
There's a subtle dependency on (2) as some filesystems did rely
on fill_super() to be called in order to correctly clean up
sb->s_fs_info. All these filesystems have been fixed.
(4) Switch most filesystem to follow the same logic as the generic
mount code now does as outlined in (3).
(5) Use the superblock as the holder of the block device. We can now
easily go back from block device to owning superblock.
(6) Export and extend the generic fs_holder_ops and use them as
holder ops everywhere and remove the filesystem specific holder
ops.
(7) Call from the block layer up into the filesystem layer when the
block device is removed, allowing to shut down the filesystem
without risk of deadlocks.
(8) Get rid of get_super().
We can now easily go back from the block device to owning
superblock and can call up from the block layer into the
filesystem layer when the device is removed. So no need to wade
through all registered superblock to find the owning superblock
anymore"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.
Features:
- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics
- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice
- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up
- Use synchronous fput for the close system call
Cleanups:
- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper
- Simplify epoll allocation helper
- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio
- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio
- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking
- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus
- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api
- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code
- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs
- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()
Fixes:
- Fix various kernel-doc issues
- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE
- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts
- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs
- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec
- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions
- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.tmpfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull libfs and tmpfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This cycle saw a lot of work for tmpfs that required changes to the
vfs layer. Andrew, Hugh, and I decided to take tmpfs through vfs this
cycle. Things will go back to mm next cycle.
Features
========
- By far the biggest work is the quota support for tmpfs. New tmpfs
quota infrastructure is added to support it and a new QFMT_SHMEM
uapi option is exposed.
This offers user and group quotas to tmpfs (project quotas will be
added later). Similar to other filesystems tmpfs quota are not
supported within user namespaces yet.
- Add support for user xattrs. While tmpfs already supports security
xattrs (security.*) and POSIX ACLs for a long time it lacked
support for user xattrs (user.*). With this pull request tmpfs will
be able to support a limited number of user xattrs.
This is accompanied by a fix (see below) to limit persistent simple
xattr allocations.
- Add support for stable directory offsets. Currently tmpfs relies on
the libfs provided cursor-based mechanism for readdir. This causes
issues when a tmpfs filesystem is exported via NFS.
NFS clients do not open directories. Instead, each server-side
readdir operation opens the directory, reads it, and then closes
it. Since the cursor state for that directory is associated with
the opened file it is discarded after each readdir operation. Such
directory offsets are not just cached by NFS clients but also
various userspace libraries based on these clients.
As it stands there is no way to invalidate the caches when
directory offsets have changed and the whole application depends on
unchanging directory offsets.
At LSFMM we discussed how to solve this problem and decided to
support stable directory offsets. libfs now allows filesystems like
tmpfs to use an xarrary to map a directory offset to a dentry. This
mechanism is currently only used by tmpfs but can be supported by
others as well.
Fixes
=====
- Change persistent simple xattrs allocations in libfs from
GFP_KERNEL to GPF_KERNEL_ACCOUNT so they're subject to memory
cgroup limits. Since this is a change to libfs it affects both
tmpfs and kernfs.
- Correctly verify {g,u}id mount options.
A new filesystem context is created via fsopen() which records the
namespace that becomes the owning namespace of the superblock when
fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE) is called for filesystems that are
mountable in namespaces. However, fsconfig() calls can occur in a
namespace different from the namespace where fsopen() has been
called.
Currently, when fsconfig() is called to set {g,u}id mount options
the requested {g,u}id is mapped into a k{g,u}id according to the
namespace where fsconfig() was called from. The resulting k{g,u}id
is not guaranteed to be resolvable in the namespace of the
filesystem (the one that fsopen() was called in).
This means it's possible for an unprivileged user to create files
owned by any group in a tmpfs mount since it's possible to set the
setid bits on the tmpfs directory.
The contract for {g,u}id mount options and {g,u}id values in
general set from userspace has always been that they are translated
according to the caller's idmapping. In so far, tmpfs has been
doing the correct thing. But since tmpfs is mountable in
unprivileged contexts it is also necessary to verify that the
resulting {k,g}uid is representable in the namespace of the
superblock to avoid such bugs.
The new mount api's cross-namespace delegation abilities are
already widely used. Having talked to a bunch of userspace this is
the most faithful solution with minimal regression risks"

Add a new mount option uuid=auto, which is the default.
If a persistent UUID xattr is found it is used.
Otherwise, an existing ovelrayfs with copied up subdirs in upper dir
that was never mounted with uuid=on retains the null UUID.

With uuid=on, store a persistent uuid in xattr on the upper dir to
give the overlayfs instance a persistent identifier.
This also makes f_fsid persistent and more reliable for reporting

that does not support xattrs.
Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>
The legacy behavior of ovl_statfs() reports the f_fsid filled by
underlying upper fs. This fsid is not unique among overlayfs instances
on the same upper fs.
With mount option uuid=on, generate a non-persistent uuid per overlayfs
instance and use it as the seed for f_fsid, similar to tmpfs.
This is useful for reporting fanotify events with fid info from different
instances of overlayfs over the same upper fs.
The old behavior of null uuid and upper fs fsid is retained with the
mount option uuid=null, which is the default.
The mount option uuid=off that disables uuid checks in underlying layers
also retains the legacy behavior.

This adds the scaffolding (docs, config, mount options) for supporting
the new digest field in the metacopy xattr. This contains a fs-verity
digest that need to match the fs-verity digest of the lowerdata
file. The mount option "verity" specifies how this xattr is handled.
If you enable verity ("verity=on") all existing xattrs are validated
before use, and during metacopy we generate verity xattr in the upper
metacopy file (if the source file has verity enabled). This means
later accesses can guarantee that the same data is used.
Additionally you can use "verity=require". In this mode all metacopy
files must have a valid verity xattr. For this to work metadata
copy-up must be able to create a verity xattr (so that later accesses
are validated). Therefore, in this mode, if the lower data file
doesn't have fs-verity enabled we fall back to a full copy rather than
a metacopy.
Actual implementation follows in a separate commit.

Enable "user." extended attributes on tmpfs, limiting them by tracking
the space they occupy, and deducting that space from the limited ispace
(unless tmpfs mounted with nr_inodes=0 to leave that ispace unlimited).
tmpfs inodes and simple xattrs are both unswappable, and have to be in
lowmem on a 32-bit highmem kernel: so the ispace limit is appropriate
for xattrs, without any need for a further mount option.
Add simple_xattr_space() to give approximate but deterministic estimate
of the space taken up by each xattr: with simple_xattrs_free() outputting
the space freed if required (but kernfs and even some tmpfs usages do not
require that, so don't waste time on strlen'ing if not needed).
Security and trusted xattrs were already supported: for consistency and
simplicity, account them from the same pool; though there's a small risk
that a tmpfs with enough space before would now be considered too small.
When extended attributes are used, "df -i" does show more IUsed and less
IFree than can be explained by the inodes: document that (manpage later).
xfstests tests/generic which were not run on tmpfs before but now pass:

All users now just use '->iterate_shared()', which only takes the
directory inode lock for reading.
Filesystems that never got convered to shared mode now instead use a
wrapper that drops the lock, re-takes it in write mode, calls the old
function, and then downgrades the lock back to read mode.
This way the VFS layer and other callers no longer need to care about
filesystems that never got converted to the modern era.
The filesystems that use the new wrapper are ceph, coda, exfat, jfs,
ntfs, ocfs2, overlayfs, and vboxsf.
Honestly, several of them look like they really could just iterate their
directories in shared mode and skip the wrapper entirely, but the point
of this change is to not change semantics or fix filesystems that
haven't been fixed in the last 7+ years, but to finally get rid of the
dual iterators.

The noswap mount option is surely not one of the three options for sizing:
move its description down.
The huge= mount option does not accept numeric values: those are just in
an internal enum. Delete those numbers, and follow the manpage text more
closely (but there's not yet any fadvise() or fcntl() which applies here).
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled is hard to describe, and
barely relevant to mounting a tmpfs: just refer to transhuge.rst (while
still using the words deny and force, to help as informal reminders).

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.

New hardware extensions implement support for shadow stack memory, such

identify these areas, for example, to be used to properly indicate shadow
stack PTEs to the hardware.
Shadow stack VMA creation will be tightly controlled and limited to
anonymous memory to make the implementation simpler and since that is all
that is required. The solution will rely on pte_mkwrite() to create the
shadow stack PTEs, so it will not be required for vm_get_page_prot() to
learn how to create shadow stack memory. For this reason document that
VM_SHADOW_STACK should not be mixed with VM_SHARED.

In this cycle, we've mainly investigated the zoned block device support along
with patches such as correcting write pointers between f2fs and storage, adding
asynchronous zone reset flow, and managing the number of open zones. Other than
them, f2fs adds another mount option, "errors=x" to specify how to handle when
it detects an unexpected behavior at runtime.
Enhancement:
- support errors=remount-ro|continue|panic mountoption
- enforce some inode flag policies
- allow .tmp compression given extensions
- add some ioctls to manage the f2fs compression
- improve looped node chain flow
- avoid issuing small-sized discard commands during checkpoint
- implement an asynchronous zone reset
Bug fix:
- fix deadlock in xattr and inode page lock
- fix and add sanity check in some error paths
- fix to avoid NULL pointer dereference f2fs_write_end_io() along with put_super
- set proper flags to quota files
- fix potential deadlock due to unpaired node_write lock use
- fix over-estimating free section during FG GC
- fix the wrong condition to determine atomic context
As usual, also there are a number of patches having code refactoring and minor

Merge tag 'f2fs-for-6.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs
Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this cycle, we've mainly investigated the zoned block device
support along with patches such as correcting write pointers between
f2fs and storage, adding asynchronous zone reset flow, and managing
the number of open zones.
Other than them, f2fs adds another mount option, "errors=x" to specify
how to handle when it detects an unexpected behavior at runtime.
Enhancements:
- support 'errors=remount-ro|continue|panic' mount option
- enforce some inode flag policies
- allow .tmp compression given extensions
- add some ioctls to manage the f2fs compression
- improve looped node chain flow
- avoid issuing small-sized discard commands during checkpoint
- implement an asynchronous zone reset
Bug fixes:
- fix deadlock in xattr and inode page lock
- fix and add sanity check in some error paths
- fix to avoid NULL pointer dereference f2fs_write_end_io() along
with put_super
- set proper flags to quota files
- fix potential deadlock due to unpaired node_write lock use
- fix over-estimating free section during FG GC
- fix the wrong condition to determine atomic context
As usual, also there are a number of patches with code refactoring and
minor clean-ups"

Core
----
- Rework the sendpage & splice implementations. Instead of feeding
data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg handlers to support
taking a reference on the data, controlled by a new flag called
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES. Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file
to invoke an additional callback instead of trying to predict what
the right combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is.
Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely.
- Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid.
- Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT.
- Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker.
- Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families.
Protocols
---------
- Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
tcp_rmem[2].
- Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy.
- Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags.
- Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative.
- Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info (MPTCP_FULL_INFO).
- Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have
a full record.
- Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving
the way to issuing ioctls over io_uring.
- Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address.
- Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch.
- PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable.
- Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
(ipconfig).
- Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
(e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge).
- Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets.
- Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
printk level to debug.
- HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto.
- Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4.
- Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7.
BPF
---
- Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used,
or in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
especially those using open-coded iterators.
- Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what
the output buffer *should* be, without writing anything.
- Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers.
- Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper.
- Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands.
- Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
maps as read-only).
- Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo.
- Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are self-explanatory):
- Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
and bpf_dynptr_clone().
- bpf_task_under_cgroup()
- bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
- bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs
Netfilter
---------
- Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
presence of an entry in a map without using the value.
- Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds.
- Allow updating size of a set.
- Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing.
Driver API
----------
- Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
"offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
(i.e. packets coming in and out).
- Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules.
- Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
common helper routines.
- Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
associated with the PCS layer.
- Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
scheduler offload (taprio).
- Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs
to fit into the message.
- Split devlink instance and devlink port operations.

"There are three areas of note:
A bunch of strlcpy()->strscpy() conversions ended up living in my tree
since they were either Acked by maintainers for me to carry, or got
ignored for multiple weeks (and were trivial changes).
The compiler option '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' has been enabled
globally, and has been in -next for the entire devel cycle. This
changes compiler diagnostics (though mainly just -Warray-bounds which
is disabled) and potential UBSAN_BOUNDS and FORTIFY _warning_
coverage. In other words, there are no new restrictions, just
potentially new warnings. Any new FORTIFY warnings we've seen have
been fixed (usually in their respective subsystem trees). For more
details, see commit df8fc4e934.
The under-development compiler attribute __counted_by has been added
so that we can start annotating flexible array members with their
associated structure member that tracks the count of flexible array
elements at run-time. It is possible (likely?) that the exact syntax
of the attribute will change before it is finalized, but GCC and Clang
are working together to sort it out. Any changes can be made to the
macro while we continue to add annotations.
As an example of that last case, I have a treewide commit waiting with
such annotations found via Coccinelle:

Merge tag 'v6.5/vfs.rename.locking' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs rename locking updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work from Jan to fix problems with cross-directory
renames originally reported in [1].
To quickly sum it up some filesystems (so far we know at least about
ext4, udf, f2fs, ocfs2, likely also reiserfs, gfs2 and others) need to
lock the directory when it is being renamed into another directory.
This is because we need to update the parent pointer in the directory
in that case and if that races with other operations on the directory,
in particular a conversion from one directory format into another, bad
things can happen.
So far we've done the locking in the filesystem code but recently
Darrick pointed out in [2] that the RENAME_EXCHANGE case was missing.
That one is particularly nasty because RENAME_EXCHANGE can arbitrarily
mix regular files and directories and proper lock ordering is not
achievable in the filesystems alone.
This patch set adds locking into vfs_rename() so that not only parent
directories but also moved inodes, regardless of whether they are
directories or not, are locked when calling into the filesystem.
This means establishing a locking order for unrelated directories. New
helpers are added for this purpose and our documentation is updated to
cover this in detail.
The locking is now actually easier to follow as we now always lock
source and target. We've always locked the target independent of
whether it was a directory or file and we've always locked source if
it was a regular file. The exact details for why this came about can
be found in [3] and [4]"

fsverity builtin signatures (CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES) aren't
the only way to do signatures with fsverity, and they have some major
limitations. Yet, more users have tried to use them, e.g. recently by
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2640. In most cases this seems
to be because users aren't sufficiently familiar with the limitations of
this feature and what the alternatives are.
Therefore, make some updates to the documentation to try to clarify the
properties of this feature and nudge users in the right direction.
Note that the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM, which is not yet
upstream, is planned to use the builtin signatures. (This differs from
IMA, which uses its own signature mechanism.) For that reason, my
earlier patch "fsverity: mark builtin signatures as deprecated"
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221208033548.122704-1-ebiggers@kernel.org),
which marked builtin signatures as "deprecated", was controversial.
This patch therefore stops short of marking the feature as deprecated.
I've also revised the language to focus on better explaining the feature
and what its alternatives are.

Do all the logic to set the mode during mount options parsing and
do not keep the option string around.
Use a constant_table to translate from enum redirect mode to string
in preperation for new mount api option parsing.
The mount option "off" is translated to either "follow" or "nofollow",
depending on the "redirect_always_follow" build/module config, so
in effect, there are only three possible redirect modes.
This results in a minor change to the string that is displayed
in show_options() - when redirect_dir is enabled by default and the user
mounts with the option "redirect_dir=off", instead of displaying the mode
"redirect_dir=off" in show_options(), the displayed mode will be either
"redirect_dir=follow" or "redirect_dir=nofollow", depending on the value
of "redirect_always_follow" build/module config.
The displayed mode reflects the effective mode, so mounting overlayfs
again with the dispalyed redirect_dir option will result with the same
effective and displayed mode.

Introduce the format lowerdir=lower1:lower2::lowerdata1::lowerdata2
where the lower layers on the right of the :: separators are not merged
into the overlayfs merge dirs.
Data-only lower layers are only allowed at the bottom of the stack.
The files in those layers are only meant to be accessible via absolute
redirect from metacopy files in lower layers. Following changes will
implement lookup in the data layers.
This feature was requested for composefs ostree use case, where the
lower data layer should only be accessiable via absolute redirects
from metacopy inodes.
The lower data layers are not required to a have a unique uuid or any
uuid at all, because they are never used to compose the overlayfs inode
st_ino/st_dev.

When a directory is moved to a different directory, some filesystems
(udf, ext4, ocfs2, f2fs, and likely gfs2, reiserfs, and others) need to
update their pointer to the parent and this must not race with other
operations on the directory. Lock the directories when they are moved.
Although not all filesystems need this locking, we perform it in
vfs_rename() because getting the lock ordering right is really difficult
and we don't want to expose these locking details to filesystems.

This is easily fixed by changing the gnu 0-length array into a c99
flexible array. Since this is a uapi structure, we have to be careful
about possible regressions but this one should be fine as they are
equivalent here. While it would break building with ancient gcc versions
that predate c99, it helps building with --std=c99 and -Wpedantic builds
in user space, as well as non-gnu compilers. This means we probably
also want it fixed in stable kernels.

are not keeping extra references around which both causes performance problems

It also includes a new flag to force disabling of xattrs which can also

Finally it adds a couple of additional mount options to better support

Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in
the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct
class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for
all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of
them actually did so.
Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
things:
- kobject logging improvements
- cacheinfo improvements and updates
- obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
- documentation updates
- device property cleanups and const * changes
- firwmare loader dependency fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.

In this round, we've mainly modified to support non-power-of-two zone size,
which is not required for f2fs by design. In order to avoid arch dependency,
we refactored the messy rb_entry structure shared across different extent_cache.
In addition to the improvement, we've also fixed several subtle bugs and
error cases.
Enhancement:
- support non-power-of-two zone size for zoned device
- remove sharing the rb_entry structure in extent cache
- refactor f2fs_gc to call checkpoint in urgent condition
- support iopoll
Bug fix:
- fix potential corruption when moving a directory
- fix to avoid use-after-free for cached IPU bio
- fix the folio private usage
- avoid kernel warnings or panics in the cp_error case
- fix to recover quota data correctly
- fix some bugs in atomic operations
- fix system crash due to lack of free space in LFS
- fix null pointer panic in tracepoint in __replace_atomic_write_block
- fix iostat lock protection
- fix scheduling while atomic in decompression path
- preserve direct write semantics when buffering is forced
- fix to call f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback() in f2fs_write_raw_pages()

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
"In this cycle, sub-page block support for uncompressed files is
available. It's mainly used to enable original signing ('golden')
4k-block images on arm64 with 16/64k pages. In addition, end users
could also use this feature to build a manifest to directly refer to
golden tar data.
Besides, long xattr name prefix support is also introduced in this
cycle to avoid too many xattrs with the same prefix (e.g. overlayfs
xattrs). It's useful for erofs + overlayfs combination (like Composefs
model): the image size is reduced by ~14% and runtime performance is
also slightly improved.
Others are random fixes and cleanups as usual.

- Add sub-page block size support for uncompressed files
- Support flattened block device for multi-blob images to be attached

Set the block size to that specified in on-disk superblock.
Also remove the hard constraint of PAGE_SIZE block size for the
uncompressed device backend. This constraint is temporarily remained
for compressed device and fscache backend, as there is more work needed
to handle the condition where the block size is not equal to PAGE_SIZE.
It is worth noting that the on-disk block size is read prior to
erofs_superblock_csum_verify(), as the read block size is needed in the
latter.
Besides, later we are going to make erofs refer to tar data blobs (which
is 512-byte aligned) for OCI containers, where the block size is 512
bytes. In this case, the 512-byte block size may not be adequate for a
directory to contain enough dirents. To fix this, we are also going to
introduce directory block size independent on the block size.
Due to we have already supported block size smaller than PAGE_SIZE now,
disable all these images with such separated directory block size until
we supported this feature later.

Directory tree repairs are the least complete part of online fsck, due
to the lack of directory parent pointers. However, even without that
feature, we can still make some corrections to the directory tree -- we
can salvage as many directory entries as we can from a damaged
directory, and we can reattach orphaned inodes to the lost+found, just
as xfs_repair does now.

File-based metadata (such as xattrs and directories) can be extremely
large. To reduce the memory requirements and maximize code reuse, it is
very convenient to create a temporary file, use the regular dir/attr
code to store salvaged information, and then atomically swap the extents
between the file being repaired and the temporary file. Record the high
level concepts behind how temporary files and atomic content swapping
should work, and then present some case studies of what the actual
repair functions do.

Certain parts of the online fsck code need to scan every file in the

while this happens, which means that we need to be clever in allowing

Writes to an XFS filesystem employ an eventual consistency update model
to break up complex multistep metadata updates into small chained
transactions. This is generally good for performance and scalability
because XFS doesn't need to prepare for enormous transactions, but it
also means that online fsck must be careful not to attempt a fsck action
unless it can be shown that there are no other threads processing a
transaction chain. This part of the design documentation covers the
thinking behind the consistency model and how scrub deals with it.

Currently the memtest results were only presented in dmesg.
When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not
easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption. You have to parse
dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some
time. In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM
status.
In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause
issues for way too long. So I think it makes sense to provide a
monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them.
This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts.

In doing experimentations with shmem having the option to avoid swap
becomes a useful mechanism. One of the *raves* about brd over shmem is
you can avoid swap, but that's not really a good reason to use brd if we
can instead use shmem. Using brd has its own good reasons to exist, but
just because "tmpfs" doesn't let you do that is not a great reason to
avoid it if we can easily add support for it.
I don't add support for reconfiguring incompatible options, but if we
really wanted to we can add support for that.
To avoid swap we use mapping_set_unevictable() upon inode creation, and
put a WARN_ON_ONCE() stop-gap on writepages() for reclaim.
