Pull vfs inode updates from Christian Brauner: "Features: - Hide inode->i_state behind accessors. Open-coded accesses prevent asserting they are done correctly. One obvious aspect is locking, but significantly more can be checked. For example it can be detected when the code is clearing flags which are already missing, or is setting flags when it is illegal (e.g., I_FREEING when ->i_count > 0) - Provide accessors for ->i_state, converts all filesystems using coccinelle and manual conversions (btrfs, ceph, smb, f2fs, gfs2, overlayfs, nilfs2, xfs), and makes plain ->i_state access fail to compile - Rework I_NEW handling to operate without fences, simplifying the code after the accessor infrastructure is in place Cleanups: - Move wait_on_inode() from writeback.h to fs.h - Spell out fenced ->i_state accesses with explicit smp_wmb/smp_rmb for clarity - Cosmetic fixes to LRU handling - Push list presence check into inode_io_list_del() - Touch up predicts in __d_lookup_rcu() - ocfs2: retire ocfs2_drop_inode() and I_WILL_FREE usage - Assert on ->i_count in iput_final() - Assert ->i_lock held in __iget() Fixes: - Add missing fences to I_NEW handling" * tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.inode' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (22 commits) dcache: touch up predicts in __d_lookup_rcu() fs: push list presence check into inode_io_list_del() fs: cosmetic fixes to lru handling fs: rework I_NEW handling to operate without fences fs: make plain ->i_state access fail to compile xfs: use the new ->i_state accessors nilfs2: use the new ->i_state accessors overlayfs: use the new ->i_state accessors gfs2: use the new ->i_state accessors f2fs: use the new ->i_state accessors smb: use the new ->i_state accessors ceph: use the new ->i_state accessors btrfs: use the new ->i_state accessors Manual conversion to use ->i_state accessors of all places not covered by coccinelle Coccinelle-based conversion to use ->i_state accessors fs: provide accessors for ->i_state fs: spell out fenced ->i_state accesses with explicit smp_wmb/smp_rmb fs: move wait_on_inode() from writeback.h to fs.h fs: add missing fences to I_NEW handling ocfs2: retire ocfs2_drop_inode() and I_WILL_FREE usage ...

bfs: Reconstruct file type when loading from disk

2025-10-29T13:39:34+00:00

syzbot is reporting that S_IFMT bits of inode->i_mode can become bogus when the S_IFMT bits of the 32bits "mode" field loaded from disk are corrupted or when the 32bits "attributes" field loaded from disk are corrupted. A documentation says that BFS uses only lower 9 bits of the "mode" field. But I can't find an explicit explanation that the unused upper 23 bits (especially, the S_IFMT bits) are initialized with 0. Therefore, ignore the S_IFMT bits of the "mode" field loaded from disk. Also, verify that the value of the "attributes" field loaded from disk is either BFS_VREG or BFS_VDIR (because BFS supports only regular files and the root directory).

Coccinelle-based conversion to use ->i_state accessors

2025-10-20T18:22:26+00:00

All places were patched by coccinelle with the default expecting that ->i_lock is held, afterwards entries got fixed up by hand to use unlocked variants as needed.

mm, slab: remove last vestiges of SLAB_MEM_SPREAD

2024-03-13T03:32:19+00:00

Yes, yes, I know the slab people were planning on going slow and letting every subsystem fight this thing on their own. But let's just rip off the band-aid and get it over and done with. I don't want to see a number of unnecessary pull requests just to get rid of a flag that no longer has any meaning. This was mainly done with a couple of 'sed' scripts and then some manual cleanup of the end result.

bfs: don't use WARNING: string when it's just info.

2020-12-16T06:46:18+00:00

Make the printk() [bfs "printf" macro] seem less severe by changing "WARNING:" to "NOTE:". warns us about using WARNING or BUG in a format string other than in WARN() or BUG() family macros. bfs/inode.c is doing just that in a normal printk() call, so change the "WARNING" string to be "NOTE".
