- The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get at the info about guard regions. - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently." - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping ranges of invalid pfns. - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement. - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and documents." - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement. - The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the hugetlb code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCaDt5qgAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA ju6XAP9nTiSfRz8Cz1n5LJZpFKEGzLpSihCYyR6P3o1L9oe3mwEAlZ5+XAwk2I5x Qqb/UGMEpilyre1PayQqOnct3aSL9Ao= =tYYm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-05-31-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction.

actually own the freeze.
If the filesystem is already frozen by the time we've frozen all
userspace processes we don't care to freeze it again. That's
userspace's job once the process resumes. We only actually freeze
filesystems if we absolutely have to and we ignore other failures
to freeze.
We could bubble up errors and fail suspend/resume if the error
isn't EBUSY (aka it's already frozen) but I don't think that this
is worth it. Filesystem freezing during suspend/resume is
best-effort. If the user has 500 ext4 filesystems mounted and 4
fail to freeze for whatever reason then we simply skip them.
What we have now is already a big improvement and let's see how we
fare with it before making our lives even harder (and uglier) than
we have to.
- Allow efivars to support freeze and thaw
Allow efivarfs to partake to resync variable state during system
hibernation and suspend. Add freeze/thaw support.
This is a pretty straightforward implementation. We simply add
regular freeze/thaw support for both userspace and the kernel.
efivars is the first pseudofilesystem that adds support for
filesystem freezing and thawing.
The simplicity comes from the fact that we simply always resync
variable state after efivarfs has been frozen. It doesn't matter
whether that's because of suspend, userspace initiated freeze or
hibernation. Efivars is simple enough that it doesn't matter that
we walk all dentries. There are no directories and there aren't
insane amounts of entries and both freeze/thaw are already
heavy-handed operations. If userspace initiated a freeze/thaw cycle
they would need CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the initial user namespace (as
that's where efivarfs is mounted) so it can't be triggered by
random userspace. IOW, we really really don't care"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()
- Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages

documentation
- Update main netfs API document
- Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan()

mm: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() in file_has_valid_mmap_hooks()
Having encountered a trinity report in linux-next (Linked in the 'Closes'
tag) it appears that there are legitimate situations where a file-backed
mapping can be acquired but no file->f_op->mmap or
file->f_op->mmap_prepare is set, at which point do_mmap() should simply
error out with -ENODEV.
Since previously we did not warn in this scenario and it appears we rely
upon this, restore this situation, while retaining a WARN_ON_ONCE() for
the case where both are set, which is absolutely incorrect and must be
addressed and thus always requires a warning.
If further work is required to chase down precisely what is causing this,
then we can later restore this, but it makes no sense to hold up this
series to do so, as this is existing and apparently expected behaviour.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate
Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

fs: add atomic write unit max opt to statx
XFS will be able to support large atomic writes (atomic write > 1x block)
in future. This will be achieved by using different operating methods,
depending on the size of the write.
Specifically a new method of operation based in FS atomic extent remapping
will be supported in addition to the current HW offload-based method.
The FS method will generally be appreciably slower performing than the
HW-offload method. However the FS method will be typically able to
contribute to achieving a larger atomic write unit max limit.
XFS will support a hybrid mode, where HW offload method will be used when
possible, i.e. HW offload is used when the length of the write is
supported, and for other times FS-based atomic writes will be used.
As such, there is an atomic write length at which the user may experience
appreciably slower performance.
Advertise this limit in a new statx field, stx_atomic_write_unit_max_opt.
When zero, it means that there is no such performance boundary.
Masks STATX{_ATTR}_WRITE_ATOMIC can be used to get this new field. This is
ok for older kernels which don't support this new field, as they would
report 0 in this field (from zeroing in cp_statx()) already. Furthermore
those older kernels don't support large atomic writes - apart from block
fops, but there would be consistent performance there for atomic writes
in range [unit min, unit max].

fs: allow all writers to be frozen
During freeze/thaw we need to be able to freeze all writers during suspend/hibernate. Otherwise tasks such as systemd-journald that mmap a file and write to it will not be frozen after we've already frozen the filesystem. This has some risk of not being able to freeze processes in case a process has acquired SB_FREEZE_PAGEFAULT under mmap_sem or SB_FREEZE_INTERNAL under some other filesytem specific lock. If the filesystem is frozen, a task can block on the frozen filesystem with e.g., mmap_sem held. If some other task then blocks on grabbing that mmap_sem, hibernation ill fail because it is unable to hibernate a task holding mmap_sem. This could be fixed by making a range of filesystem related locks use freezable sleeping. That's impractical and not warranted just for suspend/hibernate. Assume that this is an infrequent problem and we've given userspace a way to skip filesystem freezing through a sysfs file.

(2) Check that the caller is located in the mount namespace of the
mount it wants to create a detached copy of.
While it is not strictly necessary to do it this way it is
consistently applied in the new mount api. This model will also be
used when allowing the creation of detached mount from another
detached mount.
The (1) requirement can simply be met by performing the same check
as for the non-detached case, i.e., verify that the caller is
privileged over its current mount namespace.
To meet the (2) requirement it must be possible to infer the origin
mount namespace that the anonymous mount namespace of the detached
mount was created from.
The origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount is the mount
namespace that the mounts that were copied into the anonymous mount
namespace originate from.
In order to check the origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount
namespace the sequence number of the original mount namespace is
recorded in the anonymous mount namespace.
With this in place it is possible to perform an equivalent check
(2') to (2). The origin mount namespace of the anonymous mount
namespace must be the same as the caller's mount namespace. To
establish this the sequence number of the caller's mount namespace
and the origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace are
compared.
The caller is always located in a non-anonymous mount namespace
since anonymous mount namespaces cannot be setns()ed into. The
caller's mount namespace will thus always have a valid sequence
number.
The owning namespace of any mount namespace, anonymous or
non-anonymous, can never change. A mount attached to a
non-anonymous mount namespace can never change mount namespace.
If the sequence number of the non-anonymous mount namespace and the
origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace match, the
owning namespaces must match as well.
Hence, the capability check on the owning namespace of the caller's
mount namespace ensures that the caller has the ability to copy the
mount tree.
- Allow mount detached mounts on detached mounts
Currently, detached mounts can only be mounted onto attached
mounts. This limitation makes it impossible to assemble a new
private rootfs and move it into place. Instead, a detached tree
must be created, attached, then mounted open and then either moved
or detached again. Lift this restriction.
In order to allow mounting detached mounts onto other detached
mounts the same permission model used for creating detached mounts
from detached mounts can be used (cf. above).
Allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts leaves three
cases to consider:
(1) The source mount is an attached mount and the target mount is
a detached mount. This would be equivalent to moving a mount
between different mount namespaces. A caller could move an
attached mount to a detached mount. The detached mount can now
be freely attached to any mount namespace. This changes the
current delegatioh model significantly for no good reason. So
this will fail.
(2) Anonymous mount namespaces are always attached fully, i.e., it
is not possible to only attach a subtree of an anoymous mount
namespace. This simplifies the implementation and reasoning.
Consequently, if the anonymous mount namespace of the source
detached mount and the target detached mount are the identical
the mount request will fail.
(3) The source mount's anonymous mount namespace is different from
the target mount's anonymous mount namespace.
In this case the source anonymous mount namespace of the
source mount tree must be freed after its mounts have been
moved to the target anonymous mount namespace. The source
anonymous mount namespace must be empty afterwards.
By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts a caller
may do the following:
fd_tree1 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/tmp", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to two different detached mount trees
that belong to two different anonymous mount namespace.
It is important to note that fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 both refer to
the root of their respective anonymous mount namespaces.
By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts the
caller may now do:
move_mount(fd_tree1, "", fd_tree2, "",
MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH | MOVE_MOUNT_T_EMPTY_PATH)
This will cause the detached mount referred to by fd_tree1 to be
mounted on top of the detached mount referred to by fd_tree2.
Thus, the detached mount fd_tree1 is moved from its separate
anonymous mount namespace into fd_tree2's anonymous mount
namespace.
It also means that while fd_tree2 continues to refer to the root of
its respective anonymous mount namespace fd_tree1 doesn't anymore.
This has the consequence that only fd_tree2 can be moved to another
anonymous or non-anonymous mount namespace. Moving fd_tree1 will
now fail as fd_tree1 doesn't refer to the root of an anoymous mount
namespace anymore.
Now fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to separate detached mount trees
referring to the same anonymous mount namespace.
This is conceptually fine. The new mount api does allow for this to
happen already via:
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt
mkdir -p /mnt/A
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt/A
fd_tree3 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE | AT_RECURSIVE)
fd_tree4 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt/A", 0)
Both fd_tree3 and fd_tree4 refer to two different detached mount
trees but both detached mount trees refer to the same anonymous
mount namespace. An as with fd_tree1 and fd_tree2, only fd_tree3
may be moved another mount namespace as fd_tree3 refers to the root
of the anonymous mount namespace just while fd_tree4 doesn't.
However, there's an important difference between the
fd_tree3/fd_tree4 and the fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example.
Closing fd_tree4 and releasing the respective struct file will have
no further effect on fd_tree3's detached mount tree.
However, closing fd_tree3 will cause the mount tree and the
respective anonymous mount namespace to be destroyed causing the
detached mount tree of fd_tree4 to be invalid for further mounting.
By allowing to mount detached mounts on detached mounts as in the
fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example both struct files will affect each other.
Both fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to struct files that have
FMODE_NEED_UNMOUNT set.
To handle this we use the fact that @fd_tree1 will have a parent
mount once it has been attached to @fd_tree2.
When dissolve_on_fput() is called the mount that has been passed in
will refer to the root of the anonymous mount namespace. If it
doesn't it would mean that mounts are leaked. So before allowing to
mount detached mounts onto detached mounts this would be a bug.
Now that detached mounts can be mounted onto detached mounts it
just means that the mount has been attached to another anonymous
mount namespace and thus dissolve_on_fput() must not unmount the
mount tree or free the anonymous mount namespace as the file
referring to the root of the namespace hasn't been closed yet.
If it had been closed yet it would be obvious because the mount
namespace would be NULL, i.e., the @fd_tree1 would have already
been unmounted. If @fd_tree1 hasn't been unmounted yet and has a
parent mount it is safe to skip any cleanup as closing @fd_tree2
will take care of all cleanup operations.

bdev: add back PAGE_SIZE block size validation for sb_set_blocksize()
The commit titled "block/bdev: lift block size restrictions to 64k" lifted the block layer's max supported block size to 64k inside the helper blk_validate_block_size() now that we support large folios. However in lifting the block size we also removed the silly use cases many filesystems have to use sb_set_blocksize() to *verify* that the block size <= PAGE_SIZE. The call to sb_set_blocksize() was used to check the block size <= PAGE_SIZE since historically we've always supported userspace to create for example 64k block size filesystems even on 4k page size systems, but what we didn't allow was mounting them. Older filesystems have been using the check with sb_set_blocksize() for years. While, we could argue that such checks should be filesystem specific, there are much more users of sb_set_blocksize() than LBS enabled filesystem on upstream, so just do the easier thing and bring back the PAGE_SIZE check for sb_set_blocksize() users and only skip it for LBS enabled filesystems. This will ensure that tests such as generic/466 when run in a loop against say, ext4, won't try to try to actually mount a filesystem with a block size larger than your filesystem supports given your PAGE_SIZE and in the worst case crash.

VFS: Change vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry.
vfs_mkdir() does not guarantee to leave the child dentry hashed or make it positive on success, and in many such cases the filesystem had to use a different dentry which it can now return. This patch changes vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry provided by the filesystems which is hashed and positive when provided. This reduces the number of cases where the resulting dentry is not positive to a handful which don't deserve extra efforts. The only callers of vfs_mkdir() which are interested in the resulting inode are in-kernel filesystem clients: cachefiles, nfsd, smb/server. The only filesystems that don't reliably provide the inode are: - kernfs, tracefs which these clients are unlikely to be interested in - cifs in some configurations would need to do a lookup to find the created inode, but doesn't. cifs cannot be exported via NFS, is unlikely to be used by cachefiles, and smb/server only has a soft requirement for the inode, so this is unlikely to be a problem in practice. - hostfs, nfs, cifs may need to do a lookup (rarely for NFS) and it is possible for a race to make that lookup fail. Actual failure is unlikely and providing callers handle negative dentries graceful they will fail-safe. So this patch removes the lookup code in nfsd and smb/server and adjusts them to fail safe if a negative dentry is provided: - cache-files already fails safe by restarting the task from the top - it still does with this change, though it no longer calls cachefiles_put_directory() as that will crash if the dentry is negative. - nfsd reports "Server-fault" which it what it used to do if the lookup failed. This will never happen on any file-systems that it can actually export, so this is of no consequence. I removed the fh_update() call as that is not needed and out-of-place. A subsequent nfsd_create_setattr() call will call fh_update() when needed. - smb/server only wants the inode to call ksmbd_smb_inherit_owner() which updates ->i_uid (without calling notify_change() or similar) which can be safely skipping on cifs (I hope). If a different dentry is returned, the first one is put. If necessary the fact that it is new can be determined by comparing pointers. A new dentry will certainly have a new pointer (as the old is put after the new is obtained). Similarly if an error is returned (via ERR_PTR()) the original dentry is put.

fs: place f_ref to 3rd cache line in struct file to resolve false sharing
When running syscall pread in a high core count system, f_ref contends with the reading of f_mode, f_op, f_mapping, f_inode, f_flags in the same cache line. This change places f_ref to the 3rd cache line where fields are not updated as frequently as the 1st cache line, and the contention is grealy reduced according to tests. In addition, the size of file object is kept in 3 cache lines. This change has been tested with rocksdb benchmark readwhilewriting case in 1 socket 64 physical core 128 logical core baremetal machine, with build config CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_NONE=y Command: ./db_bench --benchmarks="readwhilewriting" --threads $cnt --duration 60 The throughput(ops/s) is improved up to ~21%. ===== thread baseline compare 16 100% +1.3% 32 100% +2.2% 64 100% +7.2% 128 100% +20.9% It was also tested with UnixBench: syscall, fsbuffer, fstime, fsdisk cases that has been used for file struct layout tuning, no regression was observed.

Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *
Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

fuse: don't truncate cached, mutated symlink
Fuse allows the value of a symlink to change and this property is exploited by some filesystems (e.g. CVMFS). It has been observed, that sometimes after changing the symlink contents, the value is truncated to the old size. This is caused by fuse_getattr() racing with fuse_reverse_inval_inode(). fuse_reverse_inval_inode() updates the fuse_inode's attr_version, which results in fuse_change_attributes() exiting before updating the cached attributes This is okay, as the cached attributes remain invalid and the next call to fuse_change_attributes() will likely update the inode with the correct values. The reason this causes problems is that cached symlinks will be returned through page_get_link(), which truncates the symlink to inode->i_size. This is correct for filesystems that don't mutate symlinks, but in this case it causes bad behavior. The solution is to just remove this truncation. This can cause a regression in a filesystem that relies on supplying a symlink larger than the file size, but this is unlikely. If that happens we'd need to make this behavior conditional.

ext4: introduce linear search for dentries
This patch addresses an issue where some files in case-insensitive directories become inaccessible due to changes in how the kernel function, utf8_casefold(), generates case-folded strings from the commit |

vfs: sanity check the length passed to inode_set_cached_link()
This costs a strlen() call when instatianating a symlink. Preferably it would be hidden behind VFS_WARN_ON (or compatible), but there is no such facility at the moment. With the facility in place the call can be patched out in production kernels. In the meantime, since the cost is being paid unconditionally, use the result to a fixup the bad caller. This is not expected to persist in the long run (tm). Sample splat: bad length passed for symlink [/tmp/syz-imagegen43743633/file0/file0] (got 131109, expected 37) [rest of WARN blurp goes here] Signed-off-by: Mateusz Guzik <mjguzik@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250204213207.337980-1-mjguzik@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> |

fsnotify: use accessor to set FMODE_NONOTIFY_*
The FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits are a 2-bits mode. Open coding manipulation of those bits is risky. Use an accessor file_set_fsnotify_mode() to set the mode. Rename file_set_fsnotify_mode() => file_set_fsnotify_mode_from_watchers() to make way for the simple accessor name.

mm: call filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick() after IOCB_DONTCACHE issue
When a buffered write submitted with IOCB_DONTCACHE has been successfully submitted, call filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick() to kick off the IO. File systems call generic_write_sync() for any successful buffered write submission, hence add the logic here rather than needing to modify the file system.
