Pull vfs workqueue updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains various workqueue changes affecting the filesystem
layer.
Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work()
the used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies
to schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that
makes use again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This replaces the use of system_wq and system_unbound_wq. system_wq is
a per-CPU workqueue which isn't very obvious from the name and
system_unbound_wq is to be used when locality is not required.
So this renames system_wq to system_percpu_wq, and system_unbound_wq
to system_dfl_wq.
This also adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to allow the fs subsystem users to
explicitly request the use of per-CPU behavior. Both WQ_UNBOUND and
WQ_PERCPU flags coexist for one release cycle to allow callers to
transition their calls. WQ_UNBOUND will be removed in a next release
cycle"

Pull vfs inode updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a series I originally wrote and that Eric brought over
the finish line. It moves out the i_crypt_info and i_verity_info
pointers out of 'struct inode' and into the fs-specific part of the
inode.
So now the few filesytems that actually make use of this pay the price
in their own private inode storage instead of forcing it upon every
user of struct inode.
The pointer for the crypt and verity info is simply found by storing
an offset to its address in struct fsverity_operations and struct
fscrypt_operations. This shrinks struct inode by 16 bytes.
I hope to move a lot more out of it in the future so that struct inode
becomes really just about very core stuff that we need, much like
struct dentry and struct file, instead of the dumping ground it has
become over the years.
On top of this are a various changes associated with the ongoing inode
lifetime handling rework that multiple people are pushing forward:
- Stop accessing inode->i_count directly in f2fs and gfs2. They
simply should use the __iget() and iput() helpers
- Make the i_state flags an enum
- Rework the iput() logic
Currently, if we are the last iput, and we have the I_DIRTY_TIME
bit set, we will grab a reference on the inode again and then mark
it dirty and then redo the put. This is to make sure we delay the
time update for as long as possible
We can rework this logic to simply dec i_count if it is not 1, and
if it is do the time update while still holding the i_count
reference
Then we can replace the atomic_dec_and_lock with locking the
->i_lock and doing atomic_dec_and_test, since we did the
atomic_add_unless above
- Add an icount_read() helper and convert everyone that accesses
inode->i_count directly for this purpose to use the helper
- Expand dump_inode() to dump more information about an inode helping
in debugging
- Add some might_sleep() annotations to iput() and associated
helpers"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
system_wq is a per-CPU worqueue, yet nothing in its name tells about that
CPU affinity constraint, which is very often not required by users.
Make it clear by adding a system_percpu_wq to all the fs subsystem.
The old wq will be kept for a few release cylces.

Previously nfs_local_probe() was made to disable and then attempt to
re-enable LOCALIO (via LOCALIO protocol handshake) if/when it was
called and LOCALIO already enabled.
Vague memory for _why_ this was the case is that this was useful
if/when a local NFS server were to be restarted with a local NFS
client connected to it.
But as it happens this causes an absurd amount of LOCALIO flapping
which has a side-effect of too much IO being needlessly sent to NFSD
(using RPC over the loopback network interface). This is the
definition of "serious performance loss" (that negates the point of
having LOCALIO).
So remove this mis-optimization for re-enabling LOCALIO if/when an NFS
server is restarted (which is an extremely rare thing to do). Will
revisit testing that scenario again but in the meantime this patch
restores the full benefit of LOCALIO.

The reason is that whoever called nfs_inode_remove_request() doesn't
necessarily have a lock on the page group head.

nfs_lock_and_join_requests(), and hold it across the removal of the

Merge tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.mmap_prepare' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull mmap_prepare updates from Christian Brauner:
"Last cycle we introduce f_op->mmap_prepare() in c84bf6dd2b ("mm:
introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback").
This is preferred to the existing f_op->mmap() hook as it does require
a VMA to be established yet, thus allowing the mmap logic to invoke
this hook far, far earlier, prior to inserting a VMA into the virtual
address space, or performing any other heavy handed operations.
This allows for much simpler unwinding on error, and for there to be a
single attempt at merging a VMA rather than having to possibly
reattempt a merge based on potentially altered VMA state.
Far more importantly, it prevents inappropriate manipulation of
incompletely initialised VMA state, which is something that has been
the cause of bugs and complexity in the past.
The intent is to gradually deprecate f_op->mmap, and in that vein this
series coverts the majority of file systems to using f_op->mmap_prepare.
Prerequisite steps are taken - firstly ensuring all checks for mmap
capabilities use the file_has_valid_mmap_hooks() helper rather than
directly checking for f_op->mmap (which is now not a valid check) and
secondly updating daxdev_mapping_supported() to not require a VMA
parameter to allow ext4 and xfs to be converted.
Commit bb666b7c27 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for
nested file systems") handles the nasty edge-case of nested file
systems like overlayfs, which introduces a compatibility shim to allow
f_op->mmap_prepare() to be invoked from an f_op->mmap() callback.
This allows for nested filesystems to continue to function correctly
with all file systems regardless of which callback is used. Once we
finally convert all file systems, this shim can be removed.
As a result, ecryptfs, fuse, and overlayfs remain unaltered so they
can nest all other file systems.
We additionally do not update resctl - as this requires an update to
remap_pfn_range() (or an alternative to it) which we defer to a later
series, equally we do not update cramfs which needs a mixed mapping
insertion with the same issue, nor do we update procfs, hugetlbfs,
syfs or kernfs all of which require VMAs for internal state and hooks.
We shall return to all of these later"

Pull misc VFS updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add ext4 IOCB_DONTCACHE support
This refactors the address_space_operations write_begin() and
write_end() callbacks to take const struct kiocb * as their first
argument, allowing IOCB flags such as IOCB_DONTCACHE to propagate
to the filesystem's buffered I/O path.
Ext4 is updated to implement handling of the IOCB_DONTCACHE flag
and advertises support via the FOP_DONTCACHE file operation flag.
Additionally, the i915 driver's shmem write paths are updated to
bypass the legacy write_begin/write_end interface in favor of
directly calling write_iter() with a constructed synchronous kiocb.
Another i915 change replaces a manual write loop with
kernel_write() during GEM shmem object creation.
Cleanups:
- don't duplicate vfs_open() in kernel_file_open()
- proc_fd_getattr(): don't bother with S_ISDIR() check
- fs/ecryptfs: replace snprintf with sysfs_emit in show function
- vfs: Remove unnecessary list_for_each_entry_safe() from

The basic rules are simple:
* stores to dentry->d_flags are OK under dentry->d_lock.
* stores to dentry->d_flags are OK in the dentry constructor, before
becomes potentially visible to other threads.
Unfortunately, there's a couple of exceptions to that, and that's where the
headache comes from.
Main PITA comes from d_set_d_op(); that primitive sets ->d_op
of dentry and adjusts the flags that correspond to presence of individual
methods. It's very easy to misuse; existing uses _are_ safe, but proof
of correctness is brittle.
Use in __d_alloc() is safe (we are within a constructor), but we
might as well precalculate the initial value of ->d_flags when we set
the default ->d_op for given superblock and set ->d_flags directly
instead of messing with that helper.
The reasons why other uses are safe are bloody convoluted; I'm not going
to reproduce it here. See https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250224010624.GT1977892@ZenIV/
for gory details, if you care. The critical part is using d_set_d_op() only
just prior to d_splice_alias(), which makes a combination of d_splice_alias()
with setting ->d_op, etc. a natural replacement primitive. Better yet, if
we go that way, it's easy to take setting ->d_op and modifying ->d_flags
under ->d_lock, which eliminates the headache as far as ->d_flags exclusion
rules are concerned. Other exceptions are minor and easy to deal with.
What this series does:
* d_set_d_op() is no longer available; new primitive (d_splice_alias_ops())
is provided, equivalent to combination of d_set_d_op() and d_splice_alias().
* new field of struct super_block - ->s_d_flags. Default value of ->d_flags
to be used when allocating dentries on this filesystem.
* new primitive for setting ->s_d_op: set_default_d_op(). Replaces stores
to ->s_d_op at mount time. All in-tree filesystems converted; out-of-tree
ones will get caught by compiler (->s_d_op is renamed, so stores to it will
be caught). ->s_d_flags is set by the same primitive to match the ->s_d_op.
* a lot of filesystems had ->s_d_op->d_delete equal to always_delete_dentry;
that is equivalent to setting DCACHE_DONTCACHE in ->d_flags, so such filesystems
can bloody well set that bit in ->s_d_flags and drop ->d_delete() from
dentry_operations. In quite a few cases that results in empty dentry_operations,
which means that we can get rid of those.
* kill simple_dentry_operations - not needed anymore.
* massage d_alloc_parallel() to get rid of the other exception wrt ->d_flags
stores - we can set DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP as soon as we allocate the new dentry;
no need to delay that until we commit to using the sucker.
As the result, ->d_flags stores are all either under ->d_lock or done before
the dentry becomes visible in any shared data structures.

unpleasant. The basic rules are simple:
- stores to dentry->d_flags are OK under dentry->d_lock
- stores to dentry->d_flags are OK in the dentry constructor, before
becomes potentially visible to other threads
Unfortunately, there's a couple of exceptions to that, and that's
where the headache comes from.
The main PITA comes from d_set_d_op(); that primitive sets ->d_op of
dentry and adjusts the flags that correspond to presence of individual
methods. It's very easy to misuse; existing uses _are_ safe, but proof
of correctness is brittle.
Use in __d_alloc() is safe (we are within a constructor), but we might
as well precalculate the initial value of 'd_flags' when we set the
default ->d_op for given superblock and set 'd_flags' directly instead
of messing with that helper.
The reasons why other uses are safe are bloody convoluted; I'm not
going to reproduce it here. See [1] for gory details, if you care. The
critical part is using d_set_d_op() only just prior to
d_splice_alias(), which makes a combination of d_splice_alias() with
setting ->d_op, etc a natural replacement primitive.
Better yet, if we go that way, it's easy to take setting ->d_op and
modifying 'd_flags' under ->d_lock, which eliminates the headache as
far as 'd_flags' exclusion rules are concerned. Other exceptions are
minor and easy to deal with.
What this series does:
- d_set_d_op() is no longer available; instead a new primitive
(d_splice_alias_ops()) is provided, equivalent to combination of
d_set_d_op() and d_splice_alias().
- new field of struct super_block - 's_d_flags'. This sets the
default value of 'd_flags' to be used when allocating dentries on
this filesystem.
- new primitive for setting 's_d_op': set_default_d_op(). This
replaces stores to 's_d_op' at mount time.
All in-tree filesystems converted; out-of-tree ones will get caught
by the compiler ('s_d_op' is renamed, so stores to it will be
caught). 's_d_flags' is set by the same primitive to match the
's_d_op'.
- a lot of filesystems had sb->s_d_op->d_delete equal to
always_delete_dentry; that is equivalent to setting
DCACHE_DONTCACHE in 'd_flags', so such filesystems can bloody well
set that bit in 's_d_flags' and drop 'd_delete()' from
dentry_operations.
In quite a few cases that results in empty dentry_operations, which
means that we can get rid of those.
- kill simple_dentry_operations - not needed anymore
- massage d_alloc_parallel() to get rid of the other exception wrt
'd_flags' stores - we can set DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP as soon as we
allocate the new dentry; no need to delay that until we commit to
using the sucker.
As the result, 'd_flags' stores are all either under ->d_lock or done
before the dentry becomes visible in any shared data structures"

If the NFS client is doing writeback from a workqueue context, avoid using
__GFP_NORETRY for allocations if the task has set PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO or
PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS. The combination of these flags makes memory allocation
failures much more likely.
We've seen those allocation failures show up when the loopback driver is
doing writeback from a workqueue to a file on NFS, where memory allocation
failure results in errors or corruption within the loopback device's
filesystem.

When an applications get killed (SIGTERM/SIGINT) while pNFS client performs a connection
to DS, client ends in an infinite loop of connect-disconnect. This
source of the issue, it that flexfilelayoutdev#nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds gets an error
on nfs4_pnfs_ds_connect with status ERESTARTSYS, which is set by rpc_signal_task, but
the error is treated as transient, thus retried.
The issue is reproducible with Ctrl+C the following script(there should be ~1000 files in
a directory, client should must not have any connections to DSes):
```
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
for i in *
do
head -1 $i
done
```
The change aims to propagate the nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds error state
to the caller that can decide whatever this is a retryable error or not.
