Jeff Layton wired up netlink upcalls for the auth.unix.ip and
auth.unix.gid caches in SunRPC and the svc_export and nfsd.fh
caches in NFSD. The new kernel-user API is more extensible and
lays the groundwork for retiring the old pipe interface.
The default NFS r/w block size rises to 4MB on hosts with at least
16GB of RAM, reducing per-RPC overhead on fast networks. Smaller
machines keep their previously computed default, and the value

Chuck Lever converted the server's RPCSEC GSS Kerberos code to the
kernel's shared crypto/krb5 library. The conversion retires and
removes SunRPC's bespoke implementation of Kerberos v5, but keeps
RPCSEC GSS-API.
Continuing the xdrgen migration that converted the NLMv4 server XDR
layer in v7.1, Chuck Lever converted the NLM version 3 server-side
XDR layer from hand-written C to xdrgen-generated code. As with the
NLMv4 conversion in v7.1, the goals are improved memory safety,
lower maintenance burden, and groundwork for generation of Rust code
for this layer instead of C.
Chuck Lever fixed an issue where lingering NFSv4 state pins a
mounted file system after it is unexported. A new netlink-based
mechanism can now release NLM locks and NFSv4 state by client
address, by filesystem, and by export. Now an administrator can
quiesce an export cleanly before unmounting it.
The remaining patches are bug fixes, clean-ups, and minor

fixes in the ACL, lockd, and TLS handshake paths, many of them
reported by Chris Mason. Sincere thanks to all contributors,

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Reduce pipe->mutex contention by pre-allocating pages outside the
lock in anon_pipe_write().
anon_pipe_write() called alloc_page() once per page while holding
pipe->mutex. The allocation can sleep doing direct reclaim and runs
memcg charging, which extends the critical section and stalls any
concurrent reader on the same mutex. Now up to 8 pages are
pre-allocated before the mutex is taken, leftovers are recycled
into the per-pipe tmp_page[] cache before unlock, and any remainder
is released after unlock, keeping the allocator out of the critical
section on both sides. On a writers x readers sweep with 64KB
writes against a 1 MB pipe throughput improves 6-28% and average
write latency drops 5-22%; under memory pressure - when the cost of
holding the mutex across reclaim is highest - throughput improves
21-48% and latency drops 17-33%. The microbenchmark is added to
selftests.
- uaccess/sockptr: fix the ignored_trailing logic in
copy_struct_to_user() to behave as documented and the usize check
in copy_struct_from_sockptr() for user pointers, and add
copy_struct_{from,to}_bounce_buffer() and copy_struct_to_sockptr()
helpers for upcoming users (IPPROTO_SMBDIRECT, IPPROTO_QUIC).
- bpf: add a sleepable bpf_real_inode() kfunc that resolves the real
inode backing a dentry via d_real_inode(). On overlayfs the inode
attached to the dentry doesn't carry the underlying device
information; this is used by the filesystem restriction BPF program
that was merged into systemd.
- docs: add guidelines for submitting new filesystems, motivated by
the maintenance burden abandoned and untestable filesystems impose
on VFS developers, blocking infrastructure work like folio
conversions and iomap migration.
Fixes:
- libfs: set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV by default in init_pseudo()
and drop the now-redundant assignments in callers. This began as a
one-line dma-buf fix for a path_noexec() warning; a pseudo
filesystem has no reason not to set SB_I_NOEXEC. All init_pseudo()
callers were audited: the only visible effect is on dma-buf where
SB_I_NOEXEC silences the warning.
- Handle set_blocksize() failures in legacy filesystems (bfs, hpfs,
qnx4, jfs, befs, affs, isofs, minix, ntfs3, omfs). Mounting a
device with a sector size > PAGE_SIZE crashed roughly half of them;
the rest had the same missing error handling pattern. Plus a
follow-up releasing the superblock buffer_head when setting the
minix v3 block size fails.
- mount: honour SB_NOUSER in the new mount API.
- fs/fcntl: fix a SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order in fasync signaling by
switching the process-group paths of send_sigio() and send_sigurg()
from read_lock(&tasklist_lock) to RCU, matching the single-PID
path.
- vfs: add an FS_USERNS_DELEGATABLE flag and set it for NFS, fixing
delegated NFS mounts (fsopen() in a container with the mount
performed by a privileged daemon) that broke when non-init
s_user_ns was tied to FS_USERNS_MOUNT.
- selftests/namespaces: fix a hang in nsid_test where an unreaped
grandchild kept the TAP pipe write-end open, a waitpid(-1) race in
listns_efault_test, and a false FAIL on kernels without listns()
where the tests should SKIP.
- filelock: fix the break_lease() stub signature for
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING=n.
- init/initramfs_test: wait for the async initramfs unpacking before
running; the test and do_populate_rootfs() share the parser state.
- fs/coredump: reduce redundant log noise in
validate_coredump_safety().
- iomap: pass the correct length to fserror_report_io() in
__iomap_write_begin().
- backing-file: fix the backing_file_open() kerneldoc.
Cleanups:
- initramfs: refactor the cpio hex header parsing to use hex2bin()
instead of the hand-rolled simple_strntoul() which is reverted, and
extend the initramfs KUnit tests to cover header fields with 0x
prefixes.
- Replace __get_free_pages() and friends with kmalloc()/kzalloc()
across quota, proc, ocfs2/dlm, nilfs2, nfs, nfsd, libfs, jfs, jbd2,
isofs, fuse, select, namespace, configfs, binfmt_misc, bfs, and the
do_mounts init code - part of the larger work of replacing page
allocator calls with kmalloc().
- Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() in unlock_buffer() and
journal_end_buffer_io_sync() instead of open-coding the sequence.
- Drop unused VFS exports: unexport drop_super_exclusive(), remove
start_removing_user_path_at(), and fold __start_removing_path()
into start_removing_path().
- fs/read_write: narrow the __kernel_write() export with
EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES().
- vfs: uapi: retire octal and hex constants in favor of (1 << n) for
the O_ flags. Finding a free bit for a new flag across the
architectures was needlessly hard with the mixed bases.
- dcache: add extra sanity checks of dead dentries in dentry_free()
via a new DENTRY_WARN_ONCE() that also prints d_flags.
- iov_iter: use kmemdup_array() in dup_iter() to harden the
allocation against multiplication overflow.
- fs/pipe: write to ->poll_usage only once.
- vfs: remove an always-taken if-branch in find_next_fd().
- dcache: use kmalloc_flex() for struct external_name in __d_alloc().
- namei: use QSTR() instead of QSTR_INIT() in path_pts().
- sync_file_range: delete dead S_ISLNK code.
- Comment fixes: retire a stale comment in fget_task_next() and fix
assorted spelling mistakes"

nfsd_vfs_write() and nfsd_commit() both call filemap_check_wb_err() to
detect deferred writeback errors, but neither rotates the server's write
verifier (nn->writeverf) when this check fails. Every other
durable-storage-failure path in these functions calls
commit_reset_write_verifier() before returning an error.
The missing rotation means clients holding UNSTABLE write data under the
current verifier will COMMIT, receive the unchanged verifier back, and
conclude their data is durable — silently dropping data that failed
writeback. This violates the UNSTABLE+COMMIT durability contract
(RFC 1813 §3.3.7, RFC 8881 §18.32).
Add commit_reset_write_verifier() calls at both filemap_check_wb_err()
error sites, matching the pattern used by adjacent error paths in the
same functions. The helper already filters -EAGAIN and -ESTALE
internally, so the calls are unconditionally safe.

xdr_buf_to_bvec() returns a slot count even when the caller's bvec
budget is exhausted partway through the xdr_buf. Callers feed that
count into iov_iter_bvec() and continue as if the conversion had
succeeded, silently sending or writing fewer bytes than the data
length declares. For an NFS WRITE the server reports the truncated
transfer to the client as full success.
The overflow represents an internal invariant violation: a higher
layer reserved a bvec budget too small for the xdr_buf it then
asked the encoder to convert. That is a server-side fault, not a
media I/O failure and not a malformed client argument.
Change xdr_buf_to_bvec() to return a signed int and have the
overflow label return -ESERVERFAULT. Update the three callers to
detect the negative return and fail the request: nfsd_vfs_write()
folds the error into host_err, which nfserrno() translates to
nfserr_serverfault for the WRITE reply; svc_udp_sendto() and
svc_tcp_sendmsg() propagate the error out of the send path.

nfsd_get_case_info() takes prepare_creds() and overrides fsuid/fsgid
to GLOBAL_ROOT, intending to escape per-client policy on the parent
directory. prepare_creds() copies the calling task's full credential,
including the LSM security label, so only the DAC identity is
neutralized. With labeled NFS, where the active LSM context has been
mapped to the client, security_inode_file_getattr() can still deny the
probe with -EACCES even though the case-folding property the caller
wants is structural and identical for every client. The docblock
already states the intent ("the probe runs with kernel credentials"),
which the implementation does not deliver.
prepare_kernel_cred(&init_task) constructs a credential from
init_task's identity and security label, the kernel's own unconfined
context. Use it instead and drop the redundant fsuid/fsgid overrides
that init_task already supplies. The probe now matches the docblock,
LSM denials on the parent disappear, and the call sites that map an
unexpected error to NFS3ERR_SERVERFAULT or fail an NFSv4 GETATTR
outright stop seeing -EACCES from this path.

The hard-coded MSDOS_SUPER_MAGIC check in nfsd3_proc_pathconf()
only recognizes FAT filesystems as case-insensitive. Modern
filesystems like F2FS, exFAT, and CIFS support case-insensitive
directories, but NFSv3 clients cannot discover this capability.
Query the export's actual case behavior through ->fileattr_get
instead. This allows NFSv3 clients to correctly handle case
sensitivity for any filesystem that implements the fileattr
interface. Filesystems without ->fileattr_get continue to report
the default POSIX behavior (case-sensitive, case-preserving).
This change depends on the earlier "fat: Implement fileattr_get
for case sensitivity" patch in this series, which ensures FAT
filesystems report their case behavior correctly via the
fileattr interface.
Case-folding is a per-directory property, so
nfsd_get_case_info() queries the parent dentry for
non-directory filehandles. Three inherent corner cases follow:
a single-file export's parent lies outside the exported
subtree, so the LSM hook evaluates against an unexported
directory; a disconnected dentry from fh_verify() has
d_parent == itself, so the file's own attributes are reported
until the dentry connects; and a hardlinked file resolves
through the alias the dcache currently holds, so when the
inode is linked into both case-folded and case-sensitive
directories the reported value tracks whichever parent is
active. These limitations are not addressable without
redefining the protocol attribute as per-parent rather than
per-object.
RFC 1813 restricts PATHCONF errors to NFS3ERR_STALE,
NFS3ERR_BADHANDLE, and NFS3ERR_SERVERFAULT. When an LSM hook
denies the case-folding query on the parent, NFS3ERR_STALE is
the only correct mapping: NFS3ERR_SERVERFAULT misrepresents a
working server as broken, and NFS3ERR_BADHANDLE implies a
decoding failure that did not occur. A client purging the
filehandle on receipt is the desired outcome, since the server
has refused to read attributes through it. Substituting POSIX
defaults instead would let the same handle report
casefold=false now and casefold=true once policy permits,
opening a silent name-collision window on case-insensitive
exports.

On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which
causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several
filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that
exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions
and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems.
Change the type of inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that
inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of
architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to
%llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable
types.
This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series
handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for
better struct packing on 32-bit.

Support for FATTR4_POSIX_ACCESS_ACL and FATTR4_POSIX_DEFAULT_ACL
attributes in subsequent patches allows clients to set both ACL
types simultaneously during SETATTR and file creation. Each ACL
type can succeed or fail independently, requiring the server to
clear individual attribute bits in the reply bitmap when one
fails while the other succeeds.
The existing na_aclerr field cannot distinguish which ACL type
encountered an error. Separate error fields (na_paclerr for
access ACLs, na_dpaclerr for default ACLs) enable the server to
report per-ACL-type failures accurately.
This refactoring also adds validation previously absent: default
ACL processing rejects non-directory targets with EINVAL and
passes NULL to set_posix_acl() when a_count is zero to delete
the ACL. Access ACL processing rejects zero a_count with EINVAL
for ACL_SCOPE_FILE_SYSTEM semantics (the only scope currently
supported).
The changes preserve compatibility with existing NFSv4 ACL code.
NFSv4 ACL conversion (nfs4_acl_nfsv4_to_posix()) never produces
POSIX ACLs with a_count == 0, so the new validation logic only
affects future POSIX ACL attribute handling.

Mike Snitzer's mechanism for disabling I/O caching introduced in

further reduce the memory footprint consumed by NFS clients
accessing large data sets via NFSD.
The NFSD community adopted a maintainer entry profile during this
cycle. See
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsd-maintainer-entry-profile.rst
Work continues on hardening NFSD's implementation of the pNFS block
layout type. This type enables pNFS clients to directly access the
underlying block devices that contain an exported file system,

This series is part of a larger effort to change directory operation
locking to allow multiple concurrent operations in a directory. The
ultimate goal is to lock the target dentry(s) rather than the whole

To help with changing the locking protocol, this series centralizes
locking and lookup in new helper functions. The helpers establish a
pattern where it is the dentry that is being locked and unlocked
(currently the lock is held on dentry->d_parent->d_inode, but that can
change in the future).
This also changes vfs_mkdir() to unlock the parent on failure, as well
as dput()ing the dentry. This allows end_creating() to only require
the target dentry (which may be IS_ERR() after vfs_mkdir()), not the
parent"

Pull directory delegations update from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work for recall-only directory delegations for
knfsd.
Add support for simple, recallable-only directory delegations. This
was decided at the fall NFS Bakeathon where the NFS client and server
maintainers discussed how to merge directory delegation support.
The approach starts with recallable-only delegations for several reasons:
1. RFC8881 has gaps that are being addressed in RFC8881bis. In
particular, it requires directory position information for
CB_NOTIFY callbacks, which is difficult to implement properly
under Linux. The spec is being extended to allow that information
to be omitted.
2. Client-side support for CB_NOTIFY still lags. The client side
involves heuristics about when to request a delegation.
3. Early indication shows simple, recallable-only delegations can
help performance. Anna Schumaker mentioned seeing a multi-minute
speedup in xfstests runs with them enabled.
With these changes, userspace can also request a read lease on a
directory that will be recalled on conflicting accesses. This may be
useful for applications like Samba. Users can disable leases
altogether via the fs.leases-enable sysctl if needed.
VFS changes:
- Dedicated Type for Delegations
Introduce struct delegated_inode to track inodes that may have
delegations that need to be broken. This replaces the previous
approach of passing raw inode pointers through the delegation
breaking code paths, providing better type safety and clearer
semantics for the delegation machinery.
- Break parent directory delegations in open(..., O_CREAT) codepath
- Allow mkdir to wait for delegation break on parent
- Allow rmdir to wait for delegation break on parent
- Add try_break_deleg calls for parents to vfs_link(), vfs_rename(),
and vfs_unlink()
- Make vfs_create(), vfs_mknod(), and vfs_symlink() break delegations
on parent directory
- Clean up argument list for vfs_create()
- Expose delegation support to userland
Filelock changes:
- Make lease_alloc() take a flags argument
- Rework the __break_lease API to use flags
- Add struct delegated_inode
- Push the S_ISREG check down to ->setlease handlers
- Lift the ban on directory leases in generic_setlease

When NFSD_IO_DIRECT is selected via the
/sys/kernel/debug/nfsd/io_cache_write experimental tunable, split
incoming unaligned NFS WRITE requests into a prefix, middle and
suffix segment, as needed. The middle segment is now DIO-aligned and
the prefix and/or suffix are unaligned. Synchronous buffered IO is
used for the unaligned segments, and IOCB_DIRECT is used for the
middle DIO-aligned extent.
Although IOCB_DIRECT avoids the use of the page cache, by itself it
doesn't guarantee data durability. For UNSTABLE WRITE requests,
durability is obtained by a subsequent NFS COMMIT request.

Mike noted that when NFSD responds to an NFS_FILE_SYNC WRITE, it
does not also persist file time stamps. To wit, Section 18.32.3
of RFC 8881 mandates:
> The client specifies with the stable parameter the method of how
> the data is to be processed by the server. If stable is
> FILE_SYNC4, the server MUST commit the data written plus all file
> system metadata to stable storage before returning results. This
> corresponds to the NFSv2 protocol semantics. Any other behavior
> constitutes a protocol violation. If stable is DATA_SYNC4, then
> the server MUST commit all of the data to stable storage and
> enough of the metadata to retrieve the data before returning.
Commit 3f3503adb3 ("NFSD: Use vfs_iocb_iter_write()") replaced:
- flags |= RWF_SYNC;
with:
+ kiocb.ki_flags |= IOCB_DSYNC;
which appears to be correct given:
if (flags & RWF_SYNC)
kiocb_flags |= IOCB_DSYNC;
in kiocb_set_rw_flags(). However the author of that commit did not
appreciate that the previous line in kiocb_set_rw_flags() results
in IOCB_SYNC also being set:
kiocb_flags |= (__force int) (flags & RWF_SUPPORTED);
RWF_SUPPORTED contains RWF_SYNC, and RWF_SYNC is the same bit as
IOCB_SYNC. Reviewers at the time did not catch the omission.

Add an experimental option that forces NFS READ operations to use
direct I/O instead of reading through the NFS server's page cache.
There is already at least one other layer of read caching: the page
cache on NFS clients.
The server's page cache, in many cases, is unlikely to provide
additional benefit. Some benchmarks have demonstrated that the
server's page cache is actively detrimental for workloads whose
working set is larger than the server's available physical memory.
For instance, on small NFS servers, cached NFS file content can
squeeze out local memory consumers. For large sequential workloads,
an enormous amount of data flows into and out of the page cache
and is consumed by NFS clients exactly once -- caching that data
is expensive to do and totally valueless.
For now this is a hidden option that can be enabled on test
systems for benchmarking. In the longer term, this option might
be enabled persistently or per-export. When the exported file
system does not support direct I/O, NFSD falls back to using
either DONTCACHE or buffered I/O to fulfill NFS READ requests.

Prepare for nfsd_iter_read() to use the DIO alignment stored in
nfsd_file by passing the nfsd_file to nfsd_iter_read() rather than
just the file which is associaed with the nfsd_file.
This means nfsd4_encode_readv() now also needs the nfsd_file rather
than the file. Instead of changing the file arg to be the nfsd_file,
we discard the file arg as the nfsd_file (and indeed the file) is
already available via the "read" argument.

The *count parameter does not appear to be explicitly restricted
to being smaller than rsize, so it might be possible to overrun
the rq_bvec or rq_pages arrays.
Rather than overrunning these arrays (damage done!) and then WARNING
once, let's harden the loop so that it terminates before the end of
the arrays are reached. This should result in a short read, which is
OK -- clients recover by sending additional READ requests for the
remaining unread bytes.

vfs_mkdir() already drops the reference to the dentry on failure but it
leaves the parent locked.
This complicates end_creating() which needs to unlock the parent even
though the dentry is no longer available.
If we change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure as well as releasing the
dentry, we can remove the "parent" arg from end_creating() and simplify
the rules for calling it.
Note that cachefiles_get_directory() can choose to substitute an error
instead of actually calling vfs_mkdir(), for fault injection. In that
case it needs to call end_creating(), just as vfs_mkdir() now does on
error.
ovl_create_real() will now unlock on error. So the conditional
end_creating() after the call is removed, and end_creating() is called
internally on error.

start_renaming() combines name lookup and locking to prepare for rename.
It is used when two names need to be looked up as in nfsd and overlayfs -
cases where one or both dentries are already available will be handled
separately.
__start_renaming() avoids the inode_permission check and hash
calculation and is suitable after filename_parentat() in do_renameat2().
It subsumes quite a bit of code from that function.
start_renaming() does calculate the hash and check X permission and is
suitable elsewhere:
- nfsd_rename()
- ovl_rename()
In ovl, ovl_do_rename_rd() is factored out of ovl_do_rename(), which
itself will be gone by the end of the series.

start_removing() is similar to start_creating() but will only return a
positive dentry with the expectation that it will be removed. This is
used by nfsd, cachefiles, and overlayfs. They are changed to also use
end_removing() to terminate the action begun by start_removing(). This
is a simple alias for end_dirop().
Apart from changes to the error paths, as we no longer need to unlock on
a lookup error, an effect on callers is that they don't need to test if
the found dentry is positive or negative - they can be sure it is
positive.

start_creating() is similar to simple_start_creating() but is not so
simple.
It takes a qstr for the name, includes permission checking, and does NOT
report an error if the name already exists, returning a positive dentry
instead.
This is currently used by nfsd, cachefiles, and overlayfs.
end_creating() is called after the dentry has been used.
end_creating() drops the reference to the dentry as it is generally no
longer needed. This is exactly the first section of end_creating_path()
so that function is changed to call the new end_creating()
These calls help encapsulate locking rules so that directory locking can
be changed.
Occasionally this change means that the parent lock is held for a
shorter period of time, for example in cachefiles_commit_tmpfile().
As this function now unlocks after an unlink and before the following
lookup, it is possible that the lookup could again find a positive
dentry, so a while loop is introduced there.
In overlayfs the ovl_lookup_temp() function has ovl_tempname()
split out to be used in ovl_start_creating_temp(). The other use
of ovl_lookup_temp() is preparing for a rename. When rename handling
is updated, ovl_lookup_temp() will be removed.

Mike Snitzer has prototyped a mechanism for disabling I/O caching in
NFSD. This is introduced in v6.18 as an experimental feature. This
enables scaling NFSD in /both/ directions:
- NFS service can be supported on systems with small memory
footprints, such as low-cost cloud instances
- Large NFS workloads will be less likely to force the eviction of
server-local activity, helping it avoid thrashing
Jeff Layton contributed a number of fixes to the new attribute
delegation implementation (based on a pending Internet RFC) that we
hope will make attribute delegation reliable enough to enable by
default, as it is on the Linux NFS client.
The remaining patches in this pull request are clean-ups and minor
optimizations. Many thanks to the contributors, reviewers, testers,
and bug reporters who participated during the v6.18 NFSD development
cycle.

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
"Mike Snitzer has prototyped a mechanism for disabling I/O caching in
NFSD. This is introduced in v6.18 as an experimental feature. This
enables scaling NFSD in /both/ directions:
- NFS service can be supported on systems with small memory
footprints, such as low-cost cloud instances
- Large NFS workloads will be less likely to force the eviction of
server-local activity, helping it avoid thrashing
Jeff Layton contributed a number of fixes to the new attribute
delegation implementation (based on a pending Internet RFC) that we
hope will make attribute delegation reliable enough to enable by
default, as it is on the Linux NFS client.
The remaining patches in this pull request are clean-ups and minor
optimizations. Many thanks to the contributors, reviewers, testers,
and bug reporters who participated during the v6.18 NFSD development
cycle"

Add 'io_cache_read' to NFSD's debugfs interface so that any data
read by NFSD will either be:
- cached using page cache (NFSD_IO_BUFFERED=0)
- cached but removed from the page cache upon completion
(NFSD_IO_DONTCACHE=1).
io_cache_read may be set by writing to:
/sys/kernel/debug/nfsd/io_cache_read
Add 'io_cache_write' to NFSD's debugfs interface so that any data
written by NFSD will either be:
- cached using page cache (NFSD_IO_BUFFERED=0)
- cached but removed from the page cache upon completion
(NFSD_IO_DONTCACHE=1).
io_cache_write may be set by writing to:
/sys/kernel/debug/nfsd/io_cache_write
The default value for both settings is NFSD_IO_BUFFERED, which is
NFSD's existing behavior for both read and write. Changes to these
settings take immediate effect for all exports and NFS versions.
Currently only xfs and ext4 implement RWF_DONTCACHE. For file
systems that do not implement RWF_DONTCACHE, NFSD use only buffered
I/O when the io_cache setting is NFSD_IO_DONTCACHE.

Pull vfs async directory updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains further preparatory changes for the asynchronous directory
locking scheme:
- Add lookup_one_positive_killable() which allows overlayfs to
perform lookup that won't block on a fatal signal
- Unify the mount idmap handling in struct renamedata as a rename can
only happen within a single mount
- Introduce kern_path_parent() for audit which sets the path to the
parent and returns a dentry for the target without holding any
locks on return
- Rename kern_path_locked() as it is only used to prepare for the
removal of an object from the filesystem:
kern_path_locked() => start_removing_path()
kern_path_create() => start_creating_path()
user_path_create() => start_creating_user_path()
user_path_locked_at() => start_removing_user_path_at()
done_path_create() => end_creating_path()
NA => end_removing_path()"
* tag 'vfs-6.18-rc1.async' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
debugfs: rename start_creating() to debugfs_start_creating()
VFS: rename kern_path_locked() and related functions.
VFS/audit: introduce kern_path_parent() for audit
VFS: unify old_mnt_idmap and new_mnt_idmap in renamedata
VFS: discard err2 in filename_create()
VFS/ovl: add lookup_one_positive_killable()
A rename operation can only rename within a single mount. Callers of
vfs_rename() must and do ensure this is the case.
So there is no point in having two mnt_idmaps in renamedata as they are
always the same. Only one of them is passed to ->rename in any case.
This patch replaces both with a single "mnt_idmap" and changes all
callers.

sunrpc: fix handling of server side tls alerts
nfsd: avoid ref leak in nfsd_open_local_fh()
nfsd: don't set the ctime on delegated atime updates
Clients will typically precede a DELEGRETURN for a delegation with
delegated timestamp with a SETATTR to set the timestamps on the server
to match what the client has.
knfsd implements this by using the nfsd_setattr() infrastructure, which
will set ATTR_CTIME on any update that goes to notify_change(). This is
problematic as it means that the client will get a spurious ctime
update when updating the atime.
POSIX unfortunately doesn't phrase it succinctly, but updating the atime
due to reads should not update the ctime. In this case, the client is
sending a SETATTR to update the atime on the server to match its latest
value. The ctime should not be advanced in this case as that would
incorrectly indicate a change to the inode.
Fix this by not implicitly setting ATTR_CTIME when ATTR_DELEG is set in
__nfsd_setattr(). The decoder for FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_MODIFY already
sets ATTR_CTIME, so this is sufficient to make it skip setting the ctime
on atime-only updates.

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
evict_inodes()
- filelock: add new locks_wake_up_waiter() helper

all users of 'struct renamedata' have the dentry for the old and new
directories, and often have no use for the inode except to store it in
the renamedata.
This patch changes struct renamedata to hold the dentry, rather than
the inode, for the old and new directories, and changes callers to
match. The names are also changed from a _dir suffix to _parent. This
is consistent with other usage in namei.c and elsewhere.
This results in the removal of several local variables and several
dereferences of ->d_inode at the cost of adding ->d_inode dereferences
to vfs_rename().

The marquee feature for this release is that the limit on the
maximum rsize and wsize has been raised to 4MB. The default remains
at 1MB, but risk-seeking administrators now have the ability to try
larger I/O sizes with NFS clients that support them. Eventually the
default setting will be increased when we have confidence that this
change will not have negative impact.
With v6.16, NFSD now has its own debugfs file system where we can
add experimental features and make them available outside of our
development community without impacting production deployments. The
first experimental setting added is one that makes all NFS READ
operations use vfs_iter_read() instead of the NFSD splice actor. The
plan is to eventually retire the splice actor, as that will enable a
number of new capabilities such as the use of struct bio_vec from the
top to the bottom of the NFSD stack.
Jeff Layton contributed a number of observability improvements. The
use of dprintk() in a number of high-traffic code paths has been
replaced with static trace points.
This release sees the continuation of efforts to harden the NFSv4.2
COPY operation. Soon, the restriction on async COPY operations can
be lifted.

reporters who participated during the v6.16 development cycle.
