cc0918b358 ovl: add support for appending lowerdirs one by one
[ Upstream commit 24e16e385f ]

Add new mount options lowerdir+ and datadir+ that can be used to add
layers to lower layers stack one by one.

Unlike the legacy lowerdir mount option, special characters (i.e. colons
and cammas) are not unescaped with these new mount options.

The new mount options can be repeated to compose a large stack of lower
layers, but they may not be mixed with the lagacy lowerdir mount option,
because for displaying lower layers in mountinfo, we do not want to mix
escaped with unescaped lower layers path syntax.

Similar to data-only layer rules with the lowerdir mount option, the
datadir+ option must follow at least one lowerdir+ option and the
lowerdir+ option must not follow the datadir+ option.

If the legacy lowerdir mount option follows lowerdir+ and datadir+
mount options, it overrides them.  Sepcifically, calling:

  fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", "", 0);

can be used to reset previously setup lower layers.

1db06b3d7d rename(): fix the locking of subdirectories
commit 22e111ed6c upstream.

	We should never lock two subdirectories without having taken
->s_vfs_rename_mutex; inode pointer order or not, the "order" proposed
in 28eceeda13 "fs: Lock moved directories" is not transitive, with
the usual consequences.

	The rationale for locking renamed subdirectory in all cases was
the possibility of race between rename modifying .. in a subdirectory to
reflect the new parent and another thread modifying the same subdirectory.
For a lot of filesystems that's not a problem, but for some it can lead
to trouble (e.g. the case when short directory contents is kept in the
inode, but creating a file in it might push it across the size limit
and copy its contents into separate data block(s)).

	However, we need that only in case when the parent does change -
otherwise ->rename() doesn't need to do anything with .. entry in the
first place.  Some instances are lazy and do a tautological update anyway,
but it's really not hard to avoid.

Amended locking rules for rename():
	find the parent(s) of source and target
	if source and target have the same parent
		lock the common parent
	else
		lock ->s_vfs_rename_mutex
		lock both parents, in ancestor-first order; if neither
		is an ancestor of another, lock the parent of source
		first.
	find the source and target.
	if source and target have the same parent
		if operation is an overwriting rename of a subdirectory
			lock the target subdirectory
	else
		if source is a subdirectory
			lock the source
		if target is a subdirectory
			lock the target
	lock non-directories involved, in inode pointer order if both
	source and target are such.

That way we are guaranteed that parents are locked (for obvious reasons),
that any renamed non-directory is locked (nfsd relies upon that),
that any victim is locked (emptiness check needs that, among other things)
and subdirectory that changes parent is locked (needed to protect the update
of .. entries).  We are also guaranteed that any operation locking more
than one directory either takes ->s_vfs_rename_mutex or locks a parent
followed by its child.

32db510708 ovl: fix regression in showing lowerdir mount option
Before commit b36a5780cb ("ovl: modify layer parameter parsing"),
spaces and commas in lowerdir mount option value used to be escaped using
seq_show_option().

In current upstream, when lowerdir value has a space, it is not escaped
in /proc/mounts, e.g.:

  none /mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=l l,upperdir=u,workdir=w 0 0

which results in broken output of the mount utility:

  none on /mnt type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=l)

Store the original lowerdir mount options before unescaping and show
them using the same escaping used for seq_show_option() in addition to
escaping the colon separator character.

7ba2090ca6 Mixed with some fixes and cleanups, this brings in reasonably complete
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.

8b47933544 proc/ksm: add ksm stats to /proc/pid/smaps
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

f35d170615 NFSD 6.6 Release Notes
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"

  * Create a maintainer entry profile for XFS in which we lay out the
    various roles that I have played for many years.  Aside from release
    manager, the remaining roles are as yet unfilled.
  * Start merging online repair -- we now have in-memory pageable memory
    for staging btrees, a bunch of pending fixes, and we've started the
    process of refactoring the scrub support code to support more of
    repair.  In particular, reaping of old blocks from damaged structures.
  * Scrub the realtime summary file.
  * Fix a bug where scrub's quota iteration only ever returned the root
    dquot.  Oooops.
  * Fix some typos.

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"

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"

set_pte_range() allows to setup page table entries for a specific
range.  It takes advantage of batched rmap update for large folio.
It now takes care of calling update_mmu_cache_range().

cbb44f0935 ovl: auto generate uuid for new overlay filesystems
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.

A new overlayfs with no copied up subdirs, generates the persistent UUID
on first mount.

b0504bfe1b ovl: add support for unique fsid per instance
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.

ae8cba4033 ovl: Add framework for verity support
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.

tmpfs,xattr: enable limited user extended attributes
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:
020 037 062 070 077 097 103 117 337 377 454 486 523 533 611 618 728

vfs: get rid of old '->iterate' directory operation
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.

253e5df8b8 tmpfs: fix Documentation of noswap and huge mount options
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).

(false indicates failure, not success).  And the third sentence is also

So replace the entire paragraph with a detailed description of what the

method is being called and what the filesystem is expected to do.

880b957785 fs: distinguish between user initiated freeze and kernel initiated freeze
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.

54007f8182 mm: Introduce VM_SHADOW_STACK for shadow stack memory
New hardware extensions implement support for shadow stack memory, such
as x86 Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET). Add a new VM flag to
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.
