This set cleans up the interface between nfs lockd and dlm, which
is handling nfs file locking for gfs2 and ocfs2. Very basic lockd
functionality is fixed, in which the fl owner was using the lockd
pid instead of the owner value from nfs.

Functions gfs2_freeze_super() and gfs2_thaw_super() are using the
SDF_FROZEN flag to indicate when the filesystem is frozen, synchronized
by sd_freeze_mutex. However, this doesn't prevent writes from happening
between the point of calling thaw_super() and the point where the
SDF_FROZEN flag is cleared, so the following assert can trigger in
log_write_header():
gfs2_assert_withdraw(sdp, !test_bit(SDF_FROZEN, &sdp->sd_flags));
Fix that by checking for sb->s_writers.frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE in
log_write_header() instead. To make sure that the filesystem-specific
part of freezing happens before sb->s_writers.frozen is set to
SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE, move that code from gfs2_freeze_locally() into
gfs2_freeze_fs() and hook that up to the .freeze_fs operation.

It turns out that the .freeze_super and .thaw_super operations require
the filesystem to manage the superblock refcount itself. We are using
the freeze_super() and thaw_super() helpers to mostly take care of that
for us, but this means that the superblock may no longer be around by
when thaw_super() returns, and gfs2_thaw_super() will then access freed
memory. Take an extra superblock reference in gfs2_thaw_super() to fix
that.

A freezable kernel thread can enter frozen state during freezing by
either calling try_to_freeze() or using wait_event_freezable() and its
variants. So for the following snippet of code in a kernel thread loop:
try_to_freeze();
wait_event_interruptible_timeout();
We can change it to a simple wait_event_freezable_timeout() and then
eliminate a function call.

The kernel thread function gfs2_logd() and gfs2_quotad() invoke the

we have to invoke set_freezable() explicitly.

Patch series "workload-specific and memory pressure-driven zswap
writeback", v8.
There are currently several issues with zswap writeback:
1. There is only a single global LRU for zswap, making it impossible to
perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg under memory pressure
cannot determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up
writing pages from other memcgs. This issue has been previously
observed in practice and mitigated by simply disabling
memcg-initiated shrinking:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u
But this solution leaves a lot to be desired, as we still do not
have an avenue for an memcg to free up its own memory locked up in
the zswap pool.
2. We only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is hit.
This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are
unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious
memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed
ahead of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on
factors such as memory access patterns and compressibility of the
memory pages).
This patch series solves these issues by separating the global zswap LRU
into per-memcg and per-NUMA LRUs, and performs workload-specific (i.e
memcg- and NUMA-aware) zswap writeback under memory pressure. The new
shrinker does not have any parameter that must be tuned by the user, and
can be opted in or out on a per-memcg basis.
As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the
linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in
tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall
performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe
from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.
This patch (of 6):
The interface of list_lru is based on the assumption that the list node
and the data it represents belong to the same allocated on the correct
node/memcg. While this assumption is valid for existing slab objects LRU
such as dentries and inodes, it is undocumented, and rather inflexible for
certain potential list_lru users (such as the upcoming zswap shrinker and
the THP shrinker). It has caused us a lot of issues during our
development.
This patch changes list_lru interface so that the caller must explicitly
specify numa node and memcg when adding and removing objects. The old
list_lru_add() and list_lru_del() are renamed to list_lru_add_obj() and
list_lru_del_obj(), respectively.
It also extends the list_lru API with a new function, list_lru_putback,
which undoes a previous list_lru_isolate call. Unlike list_lru_add, it
does not increment the LRU node count (as list_lru_isolate does not
decrement the node count). list_lru_putback also allows for explicit
memcg and NUMA node selection.

It is hard to find where mapping->private_lock, mapping->private_list and
mapping->private_data are used, due to private_XXX being a relatively
common name for variables and structure members in the kernel. To fit
with other members of struct address_space, rename them all to have an
i_ prefix. Tested with an allmodconfig build.

- Don't update inode timestamps for direct writes (performance
regression fix)
- Skip no-op quota records instead of panicing
- Fix a RCU race in gfs2_permission()
- Various other smaller fixes and cleanups all over the place
* tag 'gfs2-v6.6-rc2-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gfs2/linux-gfs2: (24 commits)
gfs2: don't withdraw if init_threads() got interrupted

...
In gfs2_fill_super(), when mounting a gfs2 filesystem is interrupted,
kthread_create() can return -EINTR. When that happens, we roll back
what has already been done and abort the mount.
Since commit 62dd0f98a0 ("gfs2: Flag a withdraw if init_threads()
fails), we are calling gfs2_withdraw_delayed() in gfs2_fill_super();
first via gfs2_make_fs_rw(), then directly. But gfs2_withdraw_delayed()
only marks the filesystem as withdrawing and relies on a caller further
up the stack to do the actual withdraw, which doesn't exist in the
gfs2_fill_super() case. Because the filesystem is marked as withdrawing
/ withdrawn, function gfs2_lm_unmount() doesn't release the dlm
lockspace, so when we try to mount that filesystem again, we get:
gfs2: fsid=gohan:gohan0: Trying to join cluster "lock_dlm", "gohan:gohan0"
gfs2: fsid=gohan:gohan0: dlm_new_lockspace error -17
Since commit b77b4a4815 ("gfs2: Rework freeze / thaw logic"), the
deadlock this gfs2_withdraw_delayed() call was supposed to work around
cannot occur anymore because freeze_go_callback() won't take the
sb->s_umount semaphore unconditionally anymore, so we can get rid of the
gfs2_withdraw_delayed() in gfs2_fill_super() entirely.

In gfs2_put_super(), whether withdrawn or not, the quota should
be cleaned up by gfs2_quota_cleanup().
Otherwise, struct gfs2_sbd will be freed before gfs2_qd_dealloc (rcu
callback) has run for all gfs2_quota_data objects, resulting in
use-after-free.
Also, gfs2_destroy_threads() and gfs2_quota_cleanup() is already called
by gfs2_make_fs_ro(), so in gfs2_put_super(), after calling
gfs2_make_fs_ro(), there is no need to call them again.

gfs2 already has optional persistent uuid.
Use that uuid to report f_fsid in statfs(2), same as ext2/ext4/zonefs.
This allows gfs2 to be monitored by fanotify filesystem watch.
for example, with inotify-tools 4.23.8.0, the following command can be
used to watch changes over entire filesystem:
fsnotifywatch --filesystem /mnt/gfs2

In gfs2_write_jdata_batch(), to compute the number of blocks, compute
the total size of the folio batch instead of the number of pages it
contains. Not a functional change.
Note that we don't currently allow mounting filesystems with a block
size bigger than the page size. We could change that after converting
the page cache to folios. The page cache would then only contain
block-size or bigger folios, so rounding wouldn't become an issue here.

Pull vfs inode time accessor updates from Christian Brauner:
"This finishes the conversion of all inode time fields to accessor
functions as discussed on list. Changing timestamps manually as we
used to do before is error prone. Using accessors function makes this
robust.
It does not contain the switch of the time fields to discrete 64 bit
integers to replace struct timespec and free up space in struct inode.
But after this, the switch can be trivially made and the patch should
only affect the vfs if we decide to do it"

Merge tag 'vfs-6.7.xattr' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs xattr updates from Christian Brauner:
"The 's_xattr' field of 'struct super_block' currently requires a
mutable table of 'struct xattr_handler' entries (although each handler
itself is const). However, no code in vfs actually modifies the
tables.
This changes the type of 's_xattr' to allow const tables, and modifies
existing file systems to move their tables to .rodata. This is
desirable because these tables contain entries with function pointers
in them; moving them to .rodata makes it considerably less likely to
be modified accidentally or maliciously at runtime"

Merge tag 'vfs-6.7.misc' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Rename and export helpers that get write access to a mount. They
are used in overlayfs to get write access to the upper mount.
- Print the pretty name of the root device on boot failure. This
helps in scenarios where we would usually only print
"unknown-block(1,2)".
- Add an internal SB_I_NOUMASK flag. This is another part in the
endless POSIX ACL saga in a way.
When POSIX ACLs are enabled via SB_POSIXACL the vfs cannot strip
the umask because if the relevant inode has POSIX ACLs set it might
take the umask from there. But if the inode doesn't have any POSIX
ACLs set then we apply the umask in the filesytem itself. So we end
up with:
(1) no SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in vfs
(2) SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in filesystem
The umask semantics associated with SB_POSIXACL allowed filesystems
that don't even support POSIX ACLs at all to raise SB_POSIXACL
purely to avoid umask stripping. That specifically means NFS v4 and
Overlayfs. NFS v4 does it because it delegates this to the server
and Overlayfs because it needs to delegate umask stripping to the
upper filesystem, i.e., the filesystem used as the writable layer.
This went so far that SB_POSIXACL is raised eve on kernels that
don't even have POSIX ACL support at all.
Stop this blatant abuse and add SB_I_NOUMASK which is an internal
superblock flag that filesystems can raise to opt out of umask
handling. That should really only be the two mentioned above. It's
not that we want any filesystems to do this. Ideally we have all
umask handling always in the vfs.
- Make overlayfs use SB_I_NOUMASK too.
- Now that we have SB_I_NOUMASK, stop checking for SB_POSIXACL in
IS_POSIXACL() if the kernel doesn't have support for it. This is a
very old patch but it's only possible to do this now with the wider
cleanup that was done.
- Follow-up work on fake path handling from last cycle. Citing mostly
from Amir:
When overlayfs was first merged, overlayfs files of regular files
and directories, the ones that are installed in file table, had a
"fake" path, namely, f_path is the overlayfs path and f_inode is
the "real" inode on the underlying filesystem.
In v6.5, we took another small step by introducing of the
backing_file container and the file_real_path() helper. This change
allowed vfs and filesystem code to get the "real" path of an
overlayfs backing file. With this change, we were able to make
fsnotify work correctly and report events on the "real" filesystem
objects that were accessed via overlayfs.
This method works fine, but it still leaves the vfs vulnerable to
new code that is not aware of files with fake path. A recent
example is commit db1d1e8b98 ("IMA: use vfs_getattr_nosec to get
the i_version"). This commit uses direct referencing to f_path in
IMA code that otherwise uses file_inode() and file_dentry() to
reference the filesystem objects that it is measuring.
This contains work to switch things around: instead of having
filesystem code opt-in to get the "real" path, have generic code
opt-in for the "fake" path in the few places that it is needed.
Is it far more likely that new filesystems code that does not use
the file_dentry() and file_real_path() helpers will end up causing
crashes or averting LSM/audit rules if we keep the "fake" path
exposed by default.
This change already makes file_dentry() moot, but for now we did
not change this helper just added a WARN_ON() in ovl_d_real() to
catch if we have made any wrong assumptions.
After the dust settles on this change, we can make file_dentry() a
plain accessor and we can drop the inode argument to ->d_real().
- Switch struct file to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This looks like a small
change but it really isn't and I would like to see everyone on
their tippie toes for any possible bugs from this work.
Essentially we've been doing most of what SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for
files since a very long time because of the nasty interactions
between the SCM_RIGHTS file descriptor garbage collection. So
extending it makes a lot of sense but it is a subtle change. There
are almost no places that fiddle with file rcu semantics directly
and the ones that did mess around with struct file internal under
rcu have been made to stop doing that because it really was always
dodgy.
I forgot to put in the link tag for this change and the discussion
in the commit so adding it into the merge message:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230926162228.68666-1-mjguzik@gmail.com
Cleanups:
- Various smaller pipe cleanups including the removal of a spin lock
that was only used to protect against writes without pipe_lock()
from O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE aka watch queues. As that was never
implemented remove the additional locking from pipe_write().
- Annotate struct watch_filter with the new __counted_by attribute.
- Clarify do_unlinkat() cleanup so that it doesn't look like an extra
iput() is done that would cause issues.
- Simplify file cleanup when the file has never been opened.
- Use module helper instead of open-coding it.
- Predict error unlikely for stale retry.
- Use WRITE_ONCE() for mount expiry field instead of just commenting
that one hopes the compiler doesn't get smart.
Fixes:
- Fix readahead on block devices.
- Fix writeback when layztime is enabled and inodes whose timestamp
is the only thing that changed reside on wb->b_dirty_time. This
caused excessively large zombie memory cgroup when lazytime was
enabled as such inodes weren't handled fast enough.
- Convert BUG_ON() to WARN_ON_ONCE() in open_last_lookups()"
