Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these commits. We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown to userspace. All existing filesystems are converted to user the new .remap_file_range method, and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new generic checking infrastructure. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJb29gEAAoJEK3oKUf0dfodpOAQAL2VbHjvKXEwNMDTKscSRMmZ Z0xXo3gamFKQ+VGOqy2g2lmAYQs9SAnTuCGTJ7zIAp7u+q8gzUy5FzKAwLS4Id6L 8siaY6nzlicfO04d0MdXnWz0f3xykChgzfdQfVUlUi7WrDioBUECLPmx4a+USsp1 DQGjLOZfoOAmn2rijdnH9RTEaHqg+8mcTaLN9TRav4gGqrWxldFKXw2y6ouFC7uo /hxTRNXR9VI+EdbDelwBNXl9nU9gQA0WLOvRKwgUrtv6bSJohTPsmXt7EbBtNcVR cl3zDNc1sLD1bLaRLEUAszI/33wXaaQgom1iB51obIcHHef+JxRNG/j6rUMfzxZI VaauGv5EIvtaKN0LTAqVVLQ8t2MQFYfOr8TykmO+1UFog204aKRANdVMHDSjxD/0 dTGKJGcq+HnKQ+JHDbTdvuXEL8sUUl1FiLjOQbZPw63XmuddLKFUA2TOjXn6htbU 1h1MG5d9KjGLpabp2BQheczD08NuSmcrOBNt7IoeI3+nxr3HpMwprfB9TyaERy9X iEgyVXmjjc9bLLRW7A2wm77aW64NvPs51wKMnvuNgNwnCewrGS6cB8WVj2zbQjH1 h3f3nku44s9ctNPSBzb/sJLnpqmZQ5t0oSmrMSN+5+En6rNTacoJCzxHRJBA7z/h Z+C6y1GTZw0euY6Zjiwu =CE/A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'xfs-4.20-merge-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux Pull vfs dedup fixes from Dave Chinner: "This reworks the vfs data cloning infrastructure. We discovered many issues with these interfaces late in the 4.19 cycle - the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all the problems was needed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
