Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the
zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here -
more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of
higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Is anyone reading this stuff? If so, email me!
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are
"mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
option" and
"mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to monitor and
handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare
refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if they
reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps
for much faster reading of vma information. The series is "query VMAs
from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang
improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to
multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not
very useful feature from slab fault injection.

- Wait for the ondemand_boject_worker to finish before dropping a

- Use cyclic allocation for message ids to better handle id recycling
- Add missing lock protection when iterating through the xarray when

netfs:
- Use standard logging helpers for debug logging
VFS:
- Fix potential use-after-free in file locks during
trace_posix_lock_inode(). The tracepoint could fire while another
task raced it and freed the lock that was requested to be traced
- Only increment the nr_dentry_negative counter for dentries that are
present on the superblock LRU. Currently, DCACHE_LRU_LIST list is
used to detect this case. However, the flag is also raised in
combination with DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST to indicate that dentry->d_lru
is used. So checking only DCACHE_LRU_LIST will lead to wrong

are on a shrink related list

This is the third version of this patch series, in which another patch set
is subsumed into this one to avoid confusing the two patch sets.
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-fsdevel/list/?series=854914)
We've been testing ondemand mode for cachefiles since January, and we're
almost done. We hit a lot of issues during the testing period, and this
patch series fixes some of the issues. The patches have passed internal
testing without regression.
The following is a brief overview of the patches, see the patches for
more details.
Patch 1-2: Add fscache_try_get_volume() helper function to avoid
fscache_volume use-after-free on cache withdrawal.
Patch 3: Fix cachefiles_lookup_cookie() and cachefiles_withdraw_cache()
concurrency causing cachefiles_volume use-after-free.
Patch 4: Propagate error codes returned by vfs_getxattr() to avoid
endless loops.
Patch 5-7: A read request waiting for reopen could be closed maliciously
before the reopen worker is executing or waiting to be scheduled. So
ondemand_object_worker() may be called after the info and object and even
the cache have been freed and trigger use-after-free. So use
cancel_work_sync() in cachefiles_ondemand_clean_object() to cancel the
reopen worker or wait for it to finish. Since it makes no sense to wait
for the daemon to complete the reopen request, to avoid this pointless
operation blocking cancel_work_sync(), Patch 1 avoids request generation
by the DROPPING state when the request has not been sent, and Patch 2
flushes the requests of the current object before cancel_work_sync().
Patch 8: Cyclic allocation of msg_id to avoid msg_id reuse misleading
the daemon to cause hung.
Patch 9: Hold xas_lock during polling to avoid dereferencing reqs causing
use-after-free. This issue was triggered frequently in our tests, and we
found that anolis 5.10 had fixed it. So to avoid failing the test, this
patch is pushed upstream as well.
Baokun Li (7):
netfs, fscache: export fscache_put_volume() and add
fscache_try_get_volume()
cachefiles: fix slab-use-after-free in fscache_withdraw_volume()
cachefiles: fix slab-use-after-free in cachefiles_withdraw_cookie()
cachefiles: propagate errors from vfs_getxattr() to avoid infinite
loop
cachefiles: stop sending new request when dropping object
cachefiles: cancel all requests for the object that is being dropped
cachefiles: cyclic allocation of msg_id to avoid reuse

folio_file_pos is only needed for mixed usage of page cache and swap
cache, for pure page cache usage, the caller can just use folio_pos
instead.
It can't be a swap cache page here. Swap mapping may only call into fs
through swap_rw and that is not supported for netfs. So just drop it and
use folio_pos instead.

If an error occurs whilst we're doing an AIO write in write-through mode,
we may end up calling ->ki_complete() *and* returning an error from
->write_iter(). This can result in either a UAF (the ->ki_complete() func
pointer may get overwritten, for example) or a refcount underflow in
io_submit() as ->ki_complete is called twice.
Fix this by making netfs_end_writethrough() - and thus
netfs_perform_write() - unconditionally return -EIOCBQUEUED if we're doing
an AIO write and wait for completion if we're not.

This can be triggered by mounting a cifs filesystem with a cache=strict
mount option and then, using the fsx program from xfstests, doing:
ltp/fsx -A -d -N 1000 -S 11463 -P /tmp /cifs-mount/foo \
--replay-ops=gen112-fsxops
Where gen112-fsxops holds:
fallocate 0x6be7 0x8fc5 0x377d3
copy_range 0x9c71 0x77e8 0x2edaf 0x377d3
write 0x2776d 0x8f65 0x377d3
The problem is that netfs_io_request::len is being used for two purposes
and ends up getting set to the amount of data we transferred, not the
amount of data the caller asked to be transferred (for various reasons,
such as mmap'd writes, we might end up rounding out the data written to the
server to include the entire folio at each end).
Fix this by keeping the amount we were asked to write in ->len and using
->submitted to track what we issued ops for. Then, when we come to calling
->ki_complete(), ->len is the right size.
This also required netfs_cleanup_dio_write() to change since we're no
longer advancing wreq->len. Use wreq->transferred instead as we might have
done a short read.
With this, the generic/112 xfstest passes if cifs is forced to put all
non-DIO opens into write-through mode.

Provide implementation of the netfslib hooks that will be used by netfslib
to ask cifs to set up and perform operations. Of particular note are
(*) cifs_clamp_length() - This is used to negotiate the size of the next
subrequest in a read request, taking into account the credit available
and the rsize. The credits are attached to the subrequest.
(*) cifs_req_issue_read() - This is used to issue a subrequest that has
been set up and clamped.
(*) cifs_prepare_write() - This prepares to fill a subrequest by picking a
channel, reopening the file and requesting credits so that we can set
the maximum size of the subrequest and also sets the maximum number of
segments if we're doing RDMA.
(*) cifs_issue_write() - This releases any unneeded credits and issues an
asynchronous data write for the contiguous slice of file covered by
the subrequest. This should possibly be folded in to all
->async_writev() ops and that called directly.
(*) cifs_begin_writeback() - This gets the cached writable handle through
which we do writeback (this does not affect writethrough, unbuffered
or direct writes).
At this point, cifs is not wired up to actually *use* netfslib; that will
be done in a subsequent patch.

The current netfslib writeback implementation creates writeback requests of
contiguous folio data and then separately tiles subrequests over the space
twice, once for the server and once for the cache. This creates a few
issues:
(1) Every time there's a discontiguity or a change between writing to only
one destination or writing to both, it must create a new request.
This makes it harder to do vectored writes.
(2) The folios don't have the writeback mark removed until the end of the
request - and a request could be hundreds of megabytes.
(3) In future, I want to support a larger cache granularity, which will
require aggregation of some folios that contain unmodified data (which
only need to go to the cache) and some which contain modifications
(which need to be uploaded and stored to the cache) - but, currently,
these are treated as discontiguous.
There's also a move to get everyone to use writeback_iter() to extract
writable folios from the pagecache. That said, currently writeback_iter()
has some issues that make it less than ideal:
(1) there's no way to cancel the iteration, even if you find a "temporary"
error that means the current folio and all subsequent folios are going
to fail;
(2) there's no way to filter the folios being written back - something
that will impact Ceph with it's ordered snap system;
(3) and if you get a folio you can't immediately deal with (say you need
to flush the preceding writes), you are left with a folio hanging in
the locked state for the duration, when really we should unlock it and
relock it later.
In this new implementation, I use writeback_iter() to pump folios,
progressively creating two parallel, but separate streams and cleaning up
the finished folios as the subrequests complete. Either or both streams
can contain gaps, and the subrequests in each stream can be of variable
size, don't need to align with each other and don't need to align with the
folios.
Indeed, subrequests can cross folio boundaries, may cover several folios or
a folio may be spanned by multiple folios, e.g.:
+---+---+-----+-----+---+----------+
Folios: | | | | | | |
+---+---+-----+-----+---+----------+
+------+------+ +----+----+
Upload: | | |.....| | |
+------+------+ +----+----+
+------+------+------+------+------+
Cache: | | | | | |
+------+------+------+------+------+
The progressive subrequest construction permits the algorithm to be
preparing both the next upload to the server and the next write to the
cache whilst the previous ones are already in progress. Throttling can be
applied to control the rate of production of subrequests - and, in any
case, we probably want to write them to the server in ascending order,
particularly if the file will be extended.
Content crypto can also be prepared at the same time as the subrequests and
run asynchronously, with the prepped requests being stalled until the
crypto catches up with them. This might also be useful for transport
crypto, but that happens at a lower layer, so probably would be harder to
pull off.
The algorithm is split into three parts:
(1) The issuer. This walks through the data, packaging it up, encrypting
it and creating subrequests. The part of this that generates
subrequests only deals with file positions and spans and so is usable
for DIO/unbuffered writes as well as buffered writes.
(2) The collector. This asynchronously collects completed subrequests,
unlocks folios, frees crypto buffers and performs any retries. This
runs in a work queue so that the issuer can return to the caller for
writeback (so that the VM can have its kswapd thread back) or async
writes.
(3) The retryer. This pauses the issuer, waits for all outstanding
subrequests to complete and then goes through the failed subrequests
to reissue them. This may involve reprepping them (with cifs, the
credits must be renegotiated, and a subrequest may need splitting),
and doing RMW for content crypto if there's a conflicting change on
the server.
[!] Note that some of the functions are prefixed with "new_" to avoid
clashes with existing functions. These will be renamed in a later patch
that cuts over to the new algorithm.

Implement a replacement for launder_folio. The key feature of
invalidate_inode_pages2() is that it locks each folio individually, unmaps
it to prevent mmap'd accesses interfering and calls the ->launder_folio()
address_space op to flush it. This has problems: firstly, each folio is
written individually as one or more small writes; secondly, adjacent folios
cannot be added so easily into the laundry; thirdly, it's yet another op to
implement.
Instead, use the invalidate lock to cause anyone wanting to add a folio to
the inode to wait, then unmap all the folios if we have mmaps, then,
conditionally, use ->writepages() to flush any dirty data back and then
discard all pages.
The invalidate lock prevents ->read_iter(), ->write_iter() and faulting
through mmap all from adding pages for the duration.
This is then used from netfslib to handle the flusing in unbuffered and
direct writes.

When dirty data is being written to the cache, setting/waiting on/clearing
the fscache flag is always done in tandem with setting/waiting on/clearing
the writeback flag. The netfslib buffered write routines wait on and set
both flags and the write request cleanup clears both flags, so the fscache
flag is almost superfluous.
The reason it isn't superfluous is because the fscache flag is also used to
indicate that data just read from the server is being written to the cache.
The flag is used to prevent a race involving overlapping direct-I/O writes
to the cache.
Change this to indicate that a page is in need of being copied to the cache
by placing a magic value in folio->private and marking the folios dirty.
Then when the writeback code sees a folio marked in this way, it only
writes it to the cache and not to the server.
If a folio that has this magic value set is modified, the value is just
replaced and the folio will then be uplodaded too.
With this, PG_fscache is no longer required by the netfslib core, 9p and
afs.
Ceph and nfs, however, still need to use the old PG_fscache-based tracking.
To deal with this, a flag, NETFS_ICTX_USE_PGPRIV2, now has to be set on the
flags in the netfs_inode struct for those filesystems. This reenables the
use of PG_fscache in that inode. 9p and afs use the netfslib write helpers
so get switched over; cifs, for the moment, does page-by-page manual access
to the cache, so doesn't use PG_fscache and is unaffected.

In netfs_perform_write(), when the file is marked NETFS_ICTX_WRITETHROUGH
or O_*SYNC or RWF_*SYNC was specified, write-through caching is performed
on a buffered file. When setting up for write-through, we flush any
conflicting writes in the region and wait for the write to complete,
failing if there's a write error to return.
The issue arises if we're writing at or above the EOF position because we
skip the flush and - more importantly - the wait. This becomes a problem
if there's a partial folio at the end of the file that is being written out
and we want to make a write to it too. Both the already-running write and
the write we start both want to clear the writeback mark, but whoever is
second causes a warning looking something like:
------------[ cut here ]------------
R=00000012: folio 11 is not under writeback

Fix this by making the flush-and-wait unconditional. It will do nothing if
there are no folios in the pagecache and will return quickly if there are
no folios in the region specified.
Further, move the WBC attachment above the flush call as the flush is going
to attach a WBC and detach it again if it is not present - and since we
need one anyway we might as well share it.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.8.netfs' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This extends the netfs helper library that network filesystems can use
to replace their own implementations. Both afs and 9p are ported. cifs
is ready as well but the patches are way bigger and will be routed
separately once this is merged. That will remove lots of code as well.
The overal goal is to get high-level I/O and knowledge of the page
cache and ouf of the filesystem drivers. This includes knowledge about
the existence of pages and folios
The pull request converts afs and 9p. This removes about 800 lines of
code from afs and 300 from 9p. For 9p it is now possible to do writes
in larger than a page chunks. Additionally, multipage folio support
can be turned on for 9p. Separate patches exist for cifs removing
another 2000+ lines. I've included detailed information in the
individual pulls I took.
Summary:
- Add NFS-style (and Ceph-style) locking around DIO vs buffered I/O
calls to prevent these from happening at the same time.
- Support for direct and unbuffered I/O.
- Support for write-through caching in the page cache.
- O_*SYNC and RWF_*SYNC writes use write-through rather than writing
to the page cache and then flushing afterwards.
- Support for write-streaming.
- Support for write grouping.
- Skip reads for which the server could only return zeros or EOF.
- The fscache module is now part of the netfs library and the
corresponding maintainer entry is updated.
- Some helpers from the fscache subsystem are renamed to mark them as
belonging to the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the 9p conversion"

An issue can occur between write-streaming (storing dirty data in partial
non-uptodate pages) and a cachefiles object being culled to make space.
The problem occurs because the cache object is only marked in use while
there are files open using it. Once it has been released, it can be culled
and the cookie marked disabled.
At this point, a streaming write is permitted to occur (if the cache is
active, we require pages to be prefetched and cached), but the cache can
become active again before this gets flushed out - and then two effects can
occur:
(1) The cache may be asked to write out a region that's less than its DIO
block size (assumed by cachefiles to be PAGE_SIZE) - and this causes
one of two debugging statements to be emitted.
(2) netfs_how_to_modify() gets confused because it sees a page that isn't
allowed to be non-uptodate being uptodate and tries to prefetch it -
leading to a warning that PG_fscache is set twice.
Fix this by the following means:
(1) Add a netfs_inode flag to disallow write-streaming to an inode and set
it if we ever do local caching of that inode. It remains set for the
lifetime of that inode - even if the cookie becomes disabled.
(2) If the no-write-streaming flag is set, then make netfs_how_to_modify()
always want to prefetch instead.
(3) If netfs_how_to_modify() decides it wants to prefetch a folio, but
that folio has write-streamed data in it, then it requires the folio
be flushed first.
(4) Export a counter of the number of times we wanted to prefetch a
non-uptodate page, but found it had write-streamed data in it.
(5) Export a counter of the number of times we cancelled a write to the
cache because it didn't DIO align and remove the debug statements.

Track the file position above which the server is not expected to have any
data (the "zero point") and preemptively assume that we can satisfy
requests by filling them with zeroes locally rather than attempting to
download them if they're over that line - even if we've written data back
to the server. Assume that any data that was written back above that
position is held in the local cache. Note that we have to split requests
that straddle the line.
Make use of this to optimise away some reads from the server. We need to
set the zero point in the following circumstances:
(1) When we see an extant remote inode and have no cache for it, we set
the zero_point to i_size.
(2) On local inode creation, we set zero_point to 0.
(3) On local truncation down, we reduce zero_point to the new i_size if
the new i_size is lower.
(4) On local truncation up, we don't change zero_point.
(5) On local modification, we don't change zero_point.
(6) On remote invalidation, we set zero_point to the new i_size.
(7) If stored data is discarded from the pagecache or culled from fscache,
we must set zero_point above that if the data also got written to the
server.
(8) If dirty data is written back to the server, but not fscache, we must
set zero_point above that.
(9) If a direct I/O write is made, set zero_point above that.
Assuming the above, any read from the server at or above the zero_point
position will return all zeroes.
The zero_point value can be stored in the cache, provided the above rules
are applied to it by any code that culls part of the local cache.

Provide a flag whereby a filesystem may request that cifs_perform_write()
perform write-through caching. This involves putting pages directly into
writeback rather than dirty and attaching them to a write operation as we
go.
Further, the writes being made are limited to the byte range being written
rather than whole folios being written. This can be used by cifs, for
example, to deal with strict byte-range locking.
This can't be used with content encryption as that may require expansion of
the write RPC beyond the write being made.
This doesn't affect writes via mmap - those are written back in the normal
way; similarly failed writethrough writes are marked dirty and left to
writeback to retry. Another option would be to simply invalidate them, but
the contents can be simultaneously accessed by read() and through mmap.

Implement support for unbuffered and DIO reads in the netfs library,
utilising the existing read helper code to do block splitting and
individual queuing. The code also handles extraction of the destination
buffer from the supplied iterator, allowing async unbuffered reads to take
place.
The read will be split up according to the rsize setting and, if supplied,
the ->clamp_length() method. Note that the next subrequest will be issued
as soon as issue_op returns, without waiting for previous ones to finish.
The network filesystem needs to pause or handle queuing them if it doesn't
want to fire them all at the server simultaneously.
Once all the subrequests have finished, the state will be assessed and the
amount of data to be indicated as having being obtained will be
determined. As the subrequests may finish in any order, if an intermediate
subrequest is short, any further subrequests may be copied into the buffer
and then abandoned.
In the future, this will also take care of doing an unbuffered read from
encrypted content, with the decryption being done by the library.

netfs_read_folio() needs to handle partially-valid pages that are marked
dirty, but not uptodate in the event that someone tries to read a page was
used to cache data by a streaming write.
In such a case, make netfs_read_folio() set up a bvec iterator that points
to the parts of the folio that need filling and to a sink page for the data
that should be discarded and use that instead of i_pages as the iterator to
be written to.
This requires netfs_rreq_unlock_folios() to convert the page into a normal
dirty uptodate page, getting rid of the partial write record and bumping

Dispatch one or more write reqeusts to process a writeback slice, where a
slice is tailored more to logical block divisions within the file (such as
crypto blocks, an object layout or cache granules) than the protocol RPC
maximum capacity.
The dispatch doesn't happen until throttling allows, at which point the
entire writeback slice is processed and queued. A slice may be written to
multiple destinations (one or more servers and the local cache) and the
writes to each destination might be split up along different lines.
The writeback slice holds the required folios pinned. An iov_iter is
provided in netfs_write_request that describes the buffer to be used. This
may be part of the pagecache, may have auxiliary padding pages attached or
may be a bounce buffer resulting from crypto or compression. Consequently,
the filesystem must not twiddle the folio markings directly.
The following API is available to the filesystem:
(1) The ->create_write_requests() method is called to ask the filesystem
to create the requests it needs. This is passed the writeback slice
to be processed.
(2) The filesystem should then call netfs_create_write_request() to create
the requests it needs.
(3) Once a request is initialised, netfs_queue_write_request() can be
called to dispatch it asynchronously, if not completed immediately.

Prepare to use folio->private to hold information write grouping and
streaming write. These are implemented in the same commit as they both
make use of folio->private and will be both checked at the same time in
several places.
"Write grouping" involves ordering the writeback of groups of writes, such
as is needed for ceph snaps. A group is represented by a
filesystem-supplied object which must contain a netfs_group struct. This
contains just a refcount and a pointer to a destructor.
"Streaming write" is the storage of data in folios that are marked dirty,
but not uptodate, to avoid unnecessary reads of data. This is represented
by a netfs_folio struct. This contains the offset and length of the
modified region plus the otherwise displaced write grouping pointer.
The way folio->private is multiplexed is:
(1) If private is NULL then neither is in operation on a dirty folio.
(2) If private is set, with bit 0 clear, then this points to a group.
(3) If private is set, with bit 0 set, then this points to a netfs_folio
struct (with bit 0 AND'ed out).

Add a bvec array pointer and an iterator to netfs_io_request for either
holding a copy of a DIO iterator or a list of all the bits of buffer
pointed to by a DIO iterator.
There are two problems: Firstly, if an iovec-class iov_iter is passed to
->read_iter() or ->write_iter(), this cannot be passed directly to
kernel_sendmsg() or kernel_recvmsg() as that may cause locking recursion if
a fault is generated, so we need to keep track of the pages involved
separately.
Secondly, if the I/O is asynchronous, we must copy the iov_iter describing
the buffer before returning to the caller as it may be immediately
deallocated.

Add three iov_iter structs:
(1) Add an iov_iter (->iter) to the I/O request to describe the
unencrypted-side buffer.
(2) Add an iov_iter (->io_iter) to the I/O request to describe the
encrypted-side I/O buffer. This may be a different size to the buffer
in (1).
(3) Add an iov_iter (->io_iter) to the I/O subrequest to describe the part
of the I/O buffer for that subrequest.
This will allow future patches to point to a bounce buffer instead for
purposes of handling oversize writes, decryption (where we want to save the
encrypted data to the cache) and decompression.
These iov_iters persist for the lifetime of the (sub)request, and so can be
accessed multiple times without worrying about them being deallocated upon
return to the caller.
The network filesystem must appropriately advance the iterator before
terminating the request.

Move the resource pinning-for-writeback from fscache code to netfslib code.
This is used to keep a cache backing object pinned whilst we have dirty
pages on the netfs inode in the pagecache such that VM writeback will be
able to reach it.
Whilst we're at it, switch the parameters of netfs_unpin_writeback() to
match ->write_inode() so that it can be used for that directly.
Note that this mechanism could be more generically useful than that for
network filesystems. Quite often they have to keep around other resources
(e.g. authentication tokens or network connections) until the writeback is
complete.

If a network filesystem using netfs implements a clamp_length()
function, it can set subrequest lengths smaller than a page size.
When we loop through the folios in netfs_rreq_unlock_folios() to

call folio_start_fscache() once for each folio.
Otherwise, this simple testcase:

Fix netfs_extract_iter_to_sg() for ITER_UBUF and ITER_IOVEC to set the
size of the page to the part of the page extracted, not the remaining
amount of data in the extracted page array at that point.
This doesn't yet affect anything as cifs, the only current user, only
passes in non-user-backed iterators.

This particular combination of flags is used by most filesystems
in their ->write_begin method, although it does find use in a
few other places. Before folios, it warranted its own function
(grab_cache_page_write_begin()), but I think that just having specialised
flags is enough. It certainly helps the few places that have been
converted from grab_cache_page_write_begin() to __filemap_get_folio().

Instead of returning NULL for all errors, distinguish between:
- no entry found and not asked to allocated (-ENOENT)
- failed to allocate memory (-ENOMEM)
- would block (-EAGAIN)
so that callers don't have to guess the error based on the passed in
flags.
Also pass through the error through the direct callers: filemap_get_folio,
filemap_lock_folio filemap_grab_folio and filemap_get_incore_folio.

Fix the loop check in netfs_extract_user_to_sg() for extraction from
user-backed iterators to do the body if npages > 0, not if npages < 0
(which it can never be).
This isn't currently used by cifs, which only ever extracts data from BVEC,
KVEC and XARRAY iterators at this level, user-backed iterators having being
decanted into BVEC iterators at a higher level to accommodate the work
being done in a kernel thread.
Found by smatch:
fs/netfs/iterator.c:139 netfs_extract_user_to_sg() warn: unsigned 'npages' is never less than zero.

Merge tag '6.3-rc-smb3-client-fixes' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6
Pull cifs client updates from Steve French:
"The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to
the network transport rather than passing lists of pages around,
helping multiple areas:
- Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
that the parent might not see the retrieved data.
- cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
appropriate cleanup.
- Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.
- Allowing cifs to use the new splice function
The remainder are:
- fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes
- cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)
- SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes
- reconnect fixes
- multichannel fixes, including improving channel allocation (to
least used channel)
- remove the last use of lock_page_killable by moving to
folio_lock_killable"

...
Provide a function for filling in a scatterlist from the list of pages
contained in an iterator.
If the iterator is UBUF- or IOBUF-type, the pages have a pin taken on them
(as FOLL_PIN).
If the iterator is BVEC-, KVEC- or XARRAY-type, no pin is taken on the
pages and it is left to the caller to manage their lifetime. It cannot be
assumed that a ref can be validly taken, particularly in the case of a KVEC
iterator.
