c34fc6f26a fs: Initial atomic write support
An atomic write is a write issued with torn-write protection, meaning
that for a power failure or any other hardware failure, all or none of the
data from the write will be stored, but never a mix of old and new data.

Userspace may add flag RWF_ATOMIC to pwritev2() to indicate that the
write is to be issued with torn-write prevention, according to special
alignment and length rules.

For any syscall interface utilizing struct iocb, add IOCB_ATOMIC for
iocb->ki_flags field to indicate the same.

A call to statx will give the relevant atomic write info for a file:
- atomic_write_unit_min
- atomic_write_unit_max
- atomic_write_segments_max

Both min and max values must be a power-of-2.

Applications can avail of atomic write feature by ensuring that the total
length of a write is a power-of-2 in size and also sized between
atomic_write_unit_min and atomic_write_unit_max, inclusive. Applications
must ensure that the write is at a naturally-aligned offset in the file
wrt the total write length. The value in atomic_write_segments_max
indicates the upper limit for IOV_ITER iovcnt.

Add file mode flag FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE, so files which do not have the
flag set will have RWF_ATOMIC rejected and not just ignored.

Add a type argument to kiocb_set_rw_flags() to allows reads which have
RWF_ATOMIC set to be rejected.

Helper function generic_atomic_write_valid() can be used by FSes to verify
compliant writes. There we check for iov_iter type is for ubuf, which
implies iovcnt==1 for pwritev2(), which is an initial restriction for
atomic_write_segments_max. Initially the only user will be bdev file
operations write handler. We will rely on the block BIO submission path to
ensure write sizes are compliant for the bdev, so we don't need to check
atomic writes sizes yet.

       between two files atomically.
     - Create temporary files to repair file-based metadata. This uses atomic

fs: claw back a few FMODE_* bits
There's a bunch of flags that are purely based on what the file
operations support while also never being conditionally set or unset.
IOW, they're not subject to change for individual files. Imho, such
flags don't need to live in f_mode they might as well live in the fops
structs itself. And the fops struct already has that lonely
mmap_supported_flags member. We might as well turn that into a generic
fop_flags member and move a few flags from FMODE_* space into FOP_*
space. That gets us four FMODE_* bits back and the ability for new
static flags that are about file ops to not have to live in FMODE_*
space but in their own FOP_* space. It's not the most beautiful thing
ever but it gets the job done. Yes, there'll be an additional pointer
chase but hopefully that won't matter for these flags.

I suspect there's a few more we can move into there and that we can also
redirect a bunch of new flag suggestions that follow this pattern into
the fop_flags field instead of f_mode.

7306512686 fs: use do_splice_direct() for nfsd/ksmbd server-side-copy
nfsd/ksmbd call vfs_copy_file_range() with flag COPY_FILE_SPLICE to
perform kernel copy between two files on any two filesystems.

Splicing input file, while holding file_start_write() on the output file
which is on a different sb, posses a risk for fanotify related deadlocks.

We only need to call splice_file_range() from within the context of
->copy_file_range() filesystem methods with file_start_write() held.

To avoid the possible deadlocks, always use do_splice_direct() instead of
splice_file_range() for the kernel copy fallback in vfs_copy_file_range()
without holding file_start_write().

da40448ce4 fs: move file_start_write() into direct_splice_actor()
The callers of do_splice_direct() hold file_start_write() on the output
file.

This may cause file permission hooks to be called indirectly on an
overlayfs lower layer, which is on the same filesystem of the output
file and could lead to deadlock with fanotify permission events.

To fix this potential deadlock, move file_start_write() from the callers
into the direct_splice_actor(), so file_start_write() will not be held
while splicing from the input file.

488e8f6852 fs: fork splice_file_range() from do_splice_direct()
In preparation of calling do_splice_direct() without file_start_write()
held, create a new helper splice_file_range(), to be called from context
of ->copy_file_range() methods instead of do_splice_direct().

Currently, the only difference is that splice_file_range() does not take
flags argument and that it asserts that file_start_write() is held, but
we factor out a common helper do_splice_direct_actor() that will be used
later.

Use the new helper from __ceph_copy_file_range(), that was incorrectly
passing to do_splice_direct() the copy flags argument as splice flags.
The value of copy flags in ceph is always 0, so it is a smenatic bug fix.

Move the declaration of both helpers to linux/splice.h.

6ae654392b fs: move kiocb_start_write() into vfs_iocb_iter_write()
In vfs code, sb_start_write() is usually called after the permission hook
in rw_verify_area().  vfs_iocb_iter_write() is an exception to this rule,
where kiocb_start_write() is called by its callers.

Move kiocb_start_write() from the callers into vfs_iocb_iter_write()
after the rw_verify_area() checks, to make them "start-write-safe".

The semantics of vfs_iocb_iter_write() is changed, so that the caller is
responsible for calling kiocb_end_write() on completion only if async
iocb was queued.  The completion handlers of both callers were adapted
to this semantic change.

This is needed for fanotify "pre content" events.

for consistency, do the same thing for do_iter_read() - move the

This aligns those vfs helpers with the pattern used in vfs_read() and
vfs_iocb_iter_read() and the vfs write helpers, where all the checks are

de4eda9de2 use less confusing names for iov_iter direction initializers
READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.

Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

10bc8e4af6 vfs: fix copy_file_range() averts filesystem freeze protection
Commit 868f9f2f8e ("vfs: fix copy_file_range() regression in cross-fs
copies") removed fallback to generic_copy_file_range() for cross-fs
cases inside vfs_copy_file_range().

To preserve behavior of nfsd and ksmbd server-side-copy, the fallback to
generic_copy_file_range() was added in nfsd and ksmbd code, but that
call is missing sb_start_write(), fsnotify hooks and more.

Ideally, nfsd and ksmbd would pass a flag to vfs_copy_file_range() that
will take care of the fallback, but that code would be subtle and we got
vfs_copy_file_range() logic wrong too many times already.

Instead, add a flag to explicitly request vfs_copy_file_range() to
perform only generic_copy_file_range() and let nfsd and ksmbd use this
flag only in the fallback path.

This choise keeps the logic changes to minimum in the non-nfsd/ksmbd code
paths to reduce the risk of further regressions.

06bbaa6dc5 [coredump] don't use __kernel_write() on kmap_local_page()
passing kmap_local_page() result to __kernel_write() is unsafe -
random ->write_iter() might (and 9p one does) get unhappy when
passed ITER_KVEC with pointer that came from kmap_local_page().

Fix by providing a variant of __kernel_write() that takes an iov_iter
from caller (__kernel_write() becomes a trivial wrapper) and adding
dump_emit_page() that parallels dump_emit(), except that instead of
__kernel_write() it uses __kernel_write_iter() with ITER_BVEC source.

Pull io_uring buffered writes support from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains support for buffered writes, specifically for XFS. btrfs
  is in progress, will be coming in the next release.

  io_uring does support buffered writes on any file type, but since the
  buffered write path just always -EAGAIN (or -EOPNOTSUPP) any attempt
  to do so if IOCB_NOWAIT is set, any buffered write will effectively be
  handled by io-wq offload. This isn't very efficient, and we even have
  specific code in io-wq to serialize buffered writes to the same inode
  to avoid further inefficiencies with thread offload.

  This is particularly sad since most buffered writes don't block, they
  simply copy data to a page and dirty it. With this pull request, we
  can handle buffered writes a lot more effiently.

  If balance_dirty_pages() needs to block, we back off on writes as
  indicated.

  This improves buffered write support by 2-3x.

bdeb77bc2c fs: sendfile handles O_NONBLOCK of out_fd
sendfile has to return EAGAIN if out_fd is nonblocking and the write into
it would block.

Here is a small reproducer for the problem:

#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/sendfile.h>


#define FILE_SIZE (1UL << 30)
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
        int p[2], fd;

        if (pipe2(p, O_NONBLOCK))
                return 1;

        fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_TMPFILE, 0666);
        if (fd < 0)
                return 1;
        ftruncate(fd, FILE_SIZE);

        if (sendfile(p[1], fd, 0, FILE_SIZE) == -1) {
                fprintf(stderr, "FAIL\n");
        }
        if (sendfile(p[1], fd, 0, FILE_SIZE) != -1 || errno != EAGAIN) {
                fprintf(stderr, "FAIL\n");
        }
        return 0;
}

It worked before b964bf53e5, it is stuck after b964bf53e5, and it
works again with this fix.

This regression occurred because do_splice_direct() calls pipe_write

868941b144 fs: remove no_llseek
Now that all callers of ->llseek are going through vfs_llseek(), we
don't gain anything by keeping no_llseek around. Nothing actually calls
it and setting ->llseek to no_lseek is completely equivalent to
leaving it NULL.

Longer term (== by the end of merge window) we want to remove all such
intializations.  To simplify the merge window this commit does *not*
touch initializers - it only defines no_llseek as NULL (and simplifies
the tests on file opening).

At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
	sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done
would do it.

just fail with -ESPIPE.

values of ->llseek() (somewhat inconsistently) switched to
checking FMODE_LSEEK.

868f9f2f8e vfs: fix copy_file_range() regression in cross-fs copies
A regression has been reported by Nicolas Boichat, found while using the
copy_file_range syscall to copy a tracefs file.

Before commit 5dae222a5f ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices") the kernel would return -EXDEV to userspace when trying to
copy a file across different filesystems.  After this commit, the
syscall doesn't fail anymore and instead returns zero (zero bytes
copied), as this file's content is generated on-the-fly and thus reports
a size of zero.

Another regression has been reported by He Zhe - the assertion of
WARN_ON_ONCE(ret == -EOPNOTSUPP) can be triggered from userspace when
copying from a sysfs file whose read operation may return -EOPNOTSUPP.

Since we do not have test coverage for copy_file_range() between any two
types of filesystems, the best way to avoid these sort of issues in the
future is for the kernel to be more picky about filesystems that are
allowed to do copy_file_range().

This patch restores some cross-filesystem copy restrictions that existed
prior to commit 5dae222a5f ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices"), namely, cross-sb copy is not allowed for filesystems that do
not implement ->copy_file_range().

Filesystems that do implement ->copy_file_range() have full control of
the result - if this method returns an error, the error is returned to
the user.  Before this change this was only true for fs that did not
implement the ->remap_file_range() operation (i.e.  nfsv3).

Filesystems that do not implement ->copy_file_range() still fall-back to
the generic_copy_file_range() implementation when the copy is within the
same sb.  This helps the kernel can maintain a more consistent story
about which filesystems support copy_file_range().

nfsd and ksmbd servers are modified to fall-back to the
generic_copy_file_range() implementation in case vfs_copy_file_range()
fails with -EOPNOTSUPP or -EXDEV, which preserves behavior of
server-side-copy.

fall-back to generic_copy_file_range() is not implemented for the smb
operation FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE, which is arguably a correct
change of behavior.

f6f7a25a65 fs: export variant of generic_write_checks without iov_iter
Encoded I/O in Btrfs needs to check a write with a given logical size
without an iov_iter that matches that size (because the iov_iter we have
is for the compressed data). So, factor out the parts of
generic_write_check() that don't need an iov_iter into a new
generic_write_checks_count() function and export that.

c51acdb78f fs: Remove FIXME comment in generic_write_checks()
This patch removes an unnecessary comment that had to do with block special
files from `generic_write_checks()`.

The comment, originally added in Linux v2.4.14.9, was to clarify that we only
set `pos` to the file size when the file was opened with `O_APPEND` if the file
wasn't a block special file. Prior to Linux v2.4, block special files had a
different `write()` function which was unified into a generic `write()` function
in Linux v2.4. This generic `write()` function called `generic_write_checks()`.
For more details, see this earlier conversation:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/Yc4Czk5A+p5p2Y4W@mit.edu/

Currently, block special devices have their own `write_iter()` function and no
longer share the same `generic_write_checks()`, therefore rendering the comment
irrelevant.

2949e8427a fs: clean up after mandatory file locking support removal
Commit 3efee0567b4a ("fs: remove mandatory file locking support") removes
some operations in functions rw_verify_area().

As these functions are now simplified, do some syntactic clean-up as
follow-up to the removal as well, which was pointed out by compiler
warnings and static analysis.

No functional change.

f7e33bdbd6 fs: remove mandatory file locking support
We added CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING in 2015, and soon after turned it
off in Fedora and RHEL8. Several other distros have followed suit.

I've heard of one problem in all that time: Someone migrated from an
older distro that supported "-o mand" to one that didn't, and the host
had a fstab entry with "mand" in it which broke on reboot. They didn't
actually _use_ mandatory locking so they just removed the mount option
and moved on.

This patch rips out mandatory locking support wholesale from the kernel,
along with the Kconfig option and the Documentation file. It also
changes the mount code to ignore the "mand" mount option instead of
erroring out, and to throw a big, ugly warning.
