Pull automount updates from Al Viro:
"Automount wart removal
A bunch of odd boilerplate gone from instances - the reason for
those was the need to protect the yet-to-be-attched mount from
mark_mounts_for_expiry() deciding to take it out.
But that's easy to detect and take care of in mark_mounts_for_expiry()
itself; no need to have every instance simulate mount being busy by
grabbing an extra reference to it, with finish_automount() undoing
that once it attaches that mount.
Should've done it that way from the very beginning... This is a
flagday change, thankfully there are very few instances.
vfs_submount() is gone - its sole remaining user (trace_automount)
had been switched to saner primitives"

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here are the driver core / kernfs changes for 6.16-rc1.
Not a huge number of changes this development cycle, here's the
summary of what is included in here:
- kernfs locking tweaks, pushing some global locks down into a per-fs
image lock
- rust driver core and pci device bindings added for new features.
- sysfs const work for bin_attributes.
The final churn of switching away from and removing the
transitional struct members, "read_new", "write_new" and
"bin_attrs_new" will come after the merge window to avoid
unnecesary merge conflicts.
- auxbus device creation helpers added
- fauxbus fix for creating sysfs files after the probe completed
properly
- other tiny updates for driver core things.

"New ext4 features and performance improvements:
- Fast commit performance improvements
- Multi-fsblock atomic write support for bigalloc file systems

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old
kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that
predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is
a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more
maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx
build system.
This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the
small number of problems that turned up have been addressed,
seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script
remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a
command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it
around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17.
Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.

Pull fscrypt update from Eric Biggers:
"Add support for 'hardware-wrapped inline encryption keys' to fscrypt.
When enabled on supported platforms, this feature protects file
contents keys from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks.
This feature uses the block layer support for wrapped keys which was
merged in 6.15. Wrapped key support has existed out-of-tree in Android
for a long time, and it's finally ready for upstream now that there is
a platform on which it works end-to-end with upstream.
Specifically, it works on the Qualcomm SM8650 HDK, using the Qualcomm
ICE (Inline Crypto Engine) and HWKM (Hardware Key Manager). The
corresponding driver support is included in the SCSI tree for 6.16.
Validation for this feature includes two new tests that were already
merged into xfstests (generic/368 and generic/369)"

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
"In this cycle, Intel QAT hardware accelerators are supported to
improve DEFLATE decompression performance. I've tested it with the
enwik9 dataset of 1 MiB pclusters on our Intel Sapphire Rapids

even surpasses LZ4 software decompression on this setup.
In addition, a `fsoffset` mount option is introduced for file-backed
mounts to specify the filesystem offset in order to adapt customized
container formats.
And other improvements and minor cleanups. Summary:
- Add a `fsoffset` mount option to specify the filesystem offset
- Support Intel QAT accelerators to boost up the DEFLATE algorithm
- Initialize per-CPU workers and CPU hotplug hooks lazily to avoid
unnecessary overhead when EROFS is not mounted
- Fix file handle encoding for 64-bit NIDs

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:
- Poisoned extents can now be moved: this lets us handle bitrotted data
without deleting it. For now, reading from poisoned extents only
returns -EIO: in the future we'll have an API for specifying "read
this data even if there were bitflips".
- Incompatible features may now be enabled at runtime, via
"opts/version_upgrade" in sysfs. Toggle it to incompatible, and then
toggle it back - option changes via the sysfs interface are
persistent.
- Various changes to support deployable disk images:
- RO mounts now use less memory
- Images may be stripped of alloc info, particularly useful for
slimming them down if they will primarily be mounted RO. Alloc
info will be automatically regenerated on first RW mount, and
this is quite fast
- Filesystem images generated with 'bcachefs image' will be
automatically resized the first time they're mounted on a larger
device
The images 'bcachefs image' generates with compression enabled have
been comparable in size to those generated by squashfs and erofs -
but you get a full RW capable filesystem
- Major error message improvements for btree node reads, data reads,
and elsewhere. We now build up a single error message that lists all
the errors encountered, actions taken to repair, and success/failure
of the IO. This extends to other error paths that may kick off other
actions, e.g. scheduling recovery passes: actions we took because of
an error are included in that error message, with
grouping/indentation so we can see what caused what.
- New option, 'rebalance_on_ac_only'. Does exactly what the name
suggests, quite handy with background compression.
- Repair/self healing:
- We can now kick off recovery passes and run them in the
background if we detect errors. Currently, this is just used by
code that walks backpointers. We now also check for missing
backpointers at runtime and run check_extents_to_backpointers if
required. The messy 6.14 upgrade left missing backpointers for
some users, and this will correct that automatically instead of
requiring a manual fsck - some users noticed this as copygc
spinning and not making progress.
In the future, as more recovery passes come online, we'll be able
to repair and recover from nearly anything - except for
unreadable btree nodes, and that's why you're using replication,
of course - without shutting down the filesystem.
- There's a new recovery pass, for checking the rebalance_work
btree, which tracks extents that rebalance will process later.
- Hardening:
- Close the last known hole in btree iterator/btree locking
assertions: path->should_be_locked paths must stay locked until
the end of the transaction. This shook out a few bugs, including
a performance issue that was causing unnecessary path_upgrade
transaction restarts.
- Performance:
- Faster snapshot deletion: this is an incompatible feature, as it
requires new sentinal values, for safety. Snapshot deletion no
longer has to do a full metadata scan, it now just scans the
inodes btree: if an extent/dirent/xattr is present for a given
snapshot ID, we already require that an inode be present with
that same snapshot ID.
If/when users hit scalability limits again (ridiculously huge
filesystems with lots of inodes, and many sparse snapshots), let
me know - the next step will be to add an index from snapshot ID
-> inode number, which won't be too hard.
- Faster device removal: the "scan for pointers to this device" no
longer does a full metadata scan, instead it walks backpointers.
Like fast snapshot deletion this is another incompat feature: it
also requires a new sentinal value, because we don't want to
reuse these device IDs until after a fsck.
- We're now coalescing redundant accounting updates prior to
transaction commit, taking some pressure off the journal. Shortly
we'll also be doing multiple extent updates in a transaction in
the main write path, which combined with the previous should
drastically cut down on the amount of metadata updates we have to
journal.
- Stack usage improvements: All allocator state has been moved off the
stack
- Debug improvements:
- enumerated refcounts: The debug code previously used for
filesystem write refs is now a small library, and used for other
heavily used refcounts. Different users of a refcount are
enumerated, making it much easier to debug refcount issues.
- Async object debugging: There's a new kconfig option that makes
various async objects (different types of bios, data updates,
write ops, etc.) visible in debugfs, and it should be fast enough
to leave on in production.
- Various sets of assertions no longer require
CONFIG_BCACHEFS_DEBUG, instead they're controlled by module
parameters and static keys, meaning users won't need to compile
custom kernels as often to help debug issues.
- bch2_trans_kmalloc() calls can be tracked (there's a new kconfig
option). With it on you can check the btree_transaction_stats in
debugfs to see the bch2_trans_kmalloc() calls a transaction did
when it used the most memory.

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
- Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs
documentation
- Update main netfs API document
- Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan()
- Remove unnecessary NULL-check guards during setns()
- Add separate separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op cases

- Fix typo in root= kernel parameter description
- Use KERN_INFO for infof()|info_plog()|infofc()
- Correct comments of fs_validate_description()
- Mark an unlikely if condition with unlikely() in
vfs_parse_monolithic_sep()
- Delete macro fsparam_u32hex()
- Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table()
- Fix potential unsigned integer underflow in fs_name()

Pull vfs directory lookup updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains cleanups for the lookup_one*() family of helpers.
We expose a set of functions with names containing "lookup_one_len"
and others without the "_len". This difference has nothing to do with
"len". It's rater a historical accident that can be confusing.
The functions without "_len" take a "mnt_idmap" pointer. This is found
in the "vfsmount" and that is an important question when choosing
which to use: do you have a vfsmount, or are you "inside" the
filesystem. A related question is "is permission checking relevant
here?".
nfsd and cachefiles *do* have a vfsmount but *don't* use the non-_len
functions. They pass nop_mnt_idmap and refuse to work on filesystems
which have any other idmap.
This work changes nfsd and cachefile to use the lookup_one family of
functions and to explictily pass &nop_mnt_idmap which is consistent
with all other vfs interfaces used where &nop_mnt_idmap is explicitly
passed.
The remaining uses of the "_one" functions do not require permission
checks so these are renamed to be "_noperm" and the permission
checking is removed.
This series also changes these lookup function to take a qstr instead
of separate name and len. In many cases this simplifies the call"

When attempting to use an archive file, such as APEX on android,
as a file-backed mount source, it fails because EROFS image within
the archive file does not start at offset 0. As a result, a loop
or a dm device is still needed to attach the image file at an
appropriate offset first. Similarly, if an EROFS image within a
block device does not start at offset 0, it cannot be mounted
directly either.
To address this issue, this patch adds a new mount option `fsoffset=x'
to accept a start offset for the primary device. The offset should be
aligned to the block size. EROFS will add this offset before performing
read requests.

People have been asking to see the plan for this, so -
bcachefs has various background tasks that need to be scheduled to
balance efficiency, predictability of performance, etc.
The design and philosophy hasn't changed too much since bcache, which
was primarily designed for server usage, with sustained load in mind.
These days we're seeing more desktop usage - where we really want to let
the system idle effictively, to reduce total power usage - while also
still balancing previous concerns, we still want to let work accumulate
to a degree.
This lays out all the requirements and starts to sketch out the
algorithm I have in mind.

Currently the calling conventions for ->d_automount() instances have
an odd wart - returned new mount to be attached is expected to have
refcount 2.
That kludge is intended to make sure that mark_mounts_for_expiry() called
before we get around to attaching that new mount to the tree won't decide
to take it out. finish_automount() drops the extra reference after it's
done with attaching mount to the tree - or drops the reference twice in
case of error. ->d_automount() instances have rather counterintuitive
boilerplate in them.
There's a much simpler approach: have mark_mounts_for_expiry() skip the
mounts that are yet to be mounted. And to hell with grabbing/dropping
those extra references. Makes for simpler correctness analysis, at that...

Add support for hardware-wrapped keys to fscrypt. Such keys are
protected from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks. For more
information, see the "Hardware-wrapped keys" section of
Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst.
To support hardware-wrapped keys in fscrypt, we allow the fscrypt master
keys to be hardware-wrapped. File contents encryption is done by
passing the wrapped key to the inline encryption hardware via
blk-crypto. Other fscrypt operations such as filenames encryption
continue to be done by the kernel, using the "software secret" which the
hardware derives. For more information, see the documentation which
this patch adds to Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst.
Note that this feature doesn't require any filesystem-specific changes.
However it does depend on inline encryption support, and thus currently
it is only applicable to ext4 and f2fs.
The version of this feature introduced by this patch is mostly
equivalent to the version that has existed downstream in the Android
Common Kernels since 2020. However, a couple fixes are included.
First, the flags field in struct fscrypt_add_key_arg is now placed in
the proper location. Second, key identifiers for HW-wrapped keys are
now derived using a distinct HKDF context byte; this fixes a bug where a
raw key could have the same identifier as a HW-wrapped key. Note that
as a result of these fixes, the version of this feature introduced by
this patch is not UAPI or on-disk format compatible with the version in
the Android Common Kernels, though the divergence is limited to just
those specific fixes. This version should be used going forwards.
This patch has been heavily rewritten from the original version by
Gaurav Kashyap <quic_gaurkash@quicinc.com> and
Barani Muthukumaran <bmuthuku@codeaurora.org>.

try_lookup_noperm() and d_hash_and_lookup() are nearly identical. The
former does some validation of the name where the latter doesn't.
Outside of the VFS that validation is likely valuable, and having only
one exported function for this task is certainly a good idea.
So make d_hash_and_lookup() local to VFS files and change all other
callers to try_lookup_noperm(). Note that the arguments are swapped.

The lookup_one_len family of functions is (now) only used internally by
a filesystem on itself either
- in a context where permission checking is irrelevant such as by a
virtual filesystem populating itself, or xfs accessing its ORPHANAGE
or dquota accessing the quota file; or
- in a context where a permission check (MAY_EXEC on the parent) has just
been performed such as a network filesystem finding in "silly-rename"
file in the same directory. This is also the context after the
_parentat() functions where currently lookup_one_qstr_excl() is used.
So the permission check is pointless.
The name "one_len" is unhelpful in understanding the purpose of these
functions and should be changed. Most of the callers pass the len as
"strlen()" so using a qstr and QSTR() can simplify the code.
This patch renames these functions (include lookup_positive_unlocked()
which is part of the family despite the name) to have a name based on
"lookup_noperm". They are changed to receive a 'struct qstr' instead
of separate name and len. In a few cases the use of QSTR() results in a
new call to strlen().
try_lookup_noperm() takes a pointer to a qstr instead of the whole
qstr. This is consistent with d_hash_and_lookup() (which is nearly
identical) and useful for lookup_noperm_unlocked().
The new lookup_noperm_common() doesn't take a qstr yet. That will be
tidied up in a subsequent patch.

The family of functions:
lookup_one()
lookup_one_unlocked()
lookup_one_positive_unlocked()
appear designed to be used by external clients of the filesystem rather
than by filesystems acting on themselves as the lookup_one_len family
are used.
They are used by:
btrfs/ioctl - which is a user-space interface rather than an internal
activity
exportfs - i.e. from nfsd or the open_by_handle_at interface
overlayfs - at access the underlying filesystems
smb/server - for file service
They should be used by nfsd (more than just the exportfs path) and
cachefs but aren't.
It would help if the documentation didn't claim they should "not be
called by generic code".
Also the path component name is passed as "name" and "len" which are
(confusingly?) separate by the "base". In some cases the len in simply
"strlen" and so passing a qstr using QSTR() would make the calling
clearer.
Other callers do pass separate name and len which are stored in a
struct. Sometimes these are already stored in a qstr, other times it
easily could be.
So this patch changes these three functions to receive a 'struct qstr *',
and improves the documentation.
QSTR_LEN() is added to make it easy to pass a QSTR containing a known
len.

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:
"On disk format is now soft frozen: no more required/automatic are
anticipated before taking off the experimental label.
Major changes/features since 6.14:
- Scrub
- Blocksize greater than page size support
- A number of "rebalance spinning and doing no work" issues have been
fixed; we now check if the write allocation will succeed in
bch2_data_update_init(), before kicking off the read.
There's still more work to do in this area. Later we may want to
add another bitset btree, like rebalance_work, to track "extents
that rebalance was requested to move but couldn't", e.g. due to
destination target having insufficient online devices.
- We can now support scaling well into the petabyte range: latest
bcachefs-tools will pick an appropriate bucket size at format time
to ensure fsck can run in available memory (e.g. a server with
256GB of ram and 100PB of storage would want 16MB buckets).
On disk format changes:
- 1.21: cached backpointers (scalability improvement)
Cached replicas now get backpointers, which means we no longer rely
on incrementing bucket generation numbers to invalidate cached
data: this lets us get rid of the bucket generation number garbage
collection, which had to periodically rescan all extents to
recompute bucket oldest_gen.
Bucket generation numbers are now only used as a consistency check,
but they're quite useful for that.
- 1.22: stripe backpointers
Stripes now have backpointers: erasure coded stripes have their own
checksums, separate from the checksums for the extents they contain
(and stripe checksums also cover the parity blocks). This is
required for implementing scrub for stripes.
- 1.23: stripe lru (scalability improvement)
Persistent lru for stripes, ordered by "number of empty blocks".
This is used by the stripe creation path, which depending on free
space may create a new stripe out of a partially empty existing
stripe instead of starting a brand new stripe.
This replaces an in-memory heap, and means we no longer have to
read in the stripes btree at startup.
- 1.24: casefolding
Case insensitive directory support, courtesy of Valve.
This is an incompatible feature, to enable mount with
-o version_upgrade=incompatible
- 1.25: extent_flags
Another incompatible feature requiring explicit opt-in to enable.
This adds a flags entry to extents, and a flag bit that marks
extents as poisoned.
A poisoned extent is an extent that was unreadable due to checksum
errors. We can't move such extents without giving them a new
checksum, and we may have to move them (for e.g. copygc or device
evacuate). We also don't want to delete them: in the future we'll
have an API that lets userspace ignore checksum errors and attempt
to deal with simple bitrot itself. Marking them as poisoned lets us
continue to return the correct error to userspace on normal read
calls.
Other changes/features:
- BCH_IOCTL_QUERY_COUNTERS: this is used by the new 'bcachefs fs top'
command, which shows a live view of all internal filesystem
counters.
- Improved journal pipelining: we can now have 16 journal writes in
flight concurrently, up from 4. We're logging significantly more to
the journal than we used to with all the recent disk accounting
changes and additions, so some users should see a performance
increase on some workloads.
- BCH_MEMBER_STATE_failed: previously, we would do no IO at all to
devices marked as failed. Now we will attempt to read from them,
but only if we have no better options.
- New option, write_error_timeout: devices will be kicked out of the
filesystem if all writes have been failing for x number of seconds.
We now also kick devices out when notified by blk_holder_ops that
they've gone offline.
- Device option handling improvements: the discard option should now
be working as expected (additionally, in -tools, all device options
that can be set at format time can now be set at device add time,
i.e. data_allowed, state).
- We now try harder to read data after a checksum error: we'll do
additional retries if necessary to a device after after it gave us
data with a checksum error.
- More self healing work: the full inode <-> dirent consistency
checks that are currently run by fsck are now also run every time
we do a lookup, meaning we'll be able to correct errors at runtime.
Runtime self healing will be flipped on after the new changes have
seen more testing, currently they're just checking for consistency.
- KMSAN fixes: our KMSAN builds should be nearly clean now, which
will put a massive dent in the syzbot dashboard"
