mm: update all remaining mmap_prepare users to use vma_flags_t

2026-02-12T23:42:58+00:00

We will be shortly removing the vm_flags_t field from vm_area_desc so we need to update all mmap_prepare users to only use the dessc->vma_flags field. This patch achieves that and makes all ancillary changes required to make this possible. This lays the groundwork for future work to eliminate the use of vm_flags_t in vm_area_desc altogether and more broadly throughout the kernel. While we're here, we take the opportunity to replace VM_REMAP_FLAGS with VMA_REMAP_FLAGS, the vma_flags_t equivalent. No functional changes intended.

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang: "In this cycle, inode page cache sharing among filesystems on the same machine is now supported, which is particularly useful for high-density hosts running tens of thousands of containers. In addition, we fully isolate the EROFS core on-disk format from other optional encoded layouts since the core on-disk part is designed to be simple, effective, and secure. Users can use the core format to build unique golden immutable images and import their filesystem trees directly from raw block devices via DMA, page-mapped DAX devices, and/or file-backed mounts without having to worry about unnecessary intrinsic consistency issues found in other generic filesystems by design. However, the full vision is still working in progress and will spend more time to achieve final goals. There are other improvements and bug fixes as usual, as listed below: - Support inode page cache sharing among filesystems - Formally separate optional encoded (aka compressed) inode layouts (and the implementations) from the EROFS core on-disk aligned plain format for future zero-trust security usage - Improve performance by caching the fact that an inode does not have a POSIX ACL - Improve LZ4 decompression error reporting - Enable LZMA by default and promote DEFLATE and Zstandard algorithms out of EXPERIMENTAL status - Switch to inode_set_cached_link() to cache symlink lengths - random bugfixes and minor cleanups" * tag 'erofs-for-7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs: (31 commits) erofs: fix UAF issue for file-backed mounts w/ directio option erofs: update compression algorithm status erofs: fix inline data read failure for ztailpacking pclusters erofs: avoid some unnecessary #ifdefs erofs: handle end of filesystem properly for file-backed mounts erofs: separate plain and compressed filesystems formally erofs: use inode_set_cached_link() erofs: mark inodes without acls in erofs_read_inode() erofs: implement .fadvise for page cache share erofs: support compressed inodes for page cache share erofs: support unencoded inodes for page cache share erofs: pass inode to trace_erofs_read_folio erofs: introduce the page cache share feature erofs: using domain_id in the safer way erofs: add erofs_inode_set_aops helper to set the aops erofs: support user-defined fingerprint name erofs: decouple `struct erofs_anon_fs_type` fs: Export alloc_empty_backing_file erofs: tidy up erofs_init_inode_xattrs() erofs: add missing documentation about `directio` mount option ...

erofs: support unencoded inodes for page cache share

erofs: pass inode to trace_erofs_read_folio

2026-01-23T12:02:09+00:00

The trace_erofs_read_folio accesses inode information through folio, but this method fails if the real inode is not associated with the folio(such as in the upcoming page cache sharing case). Therefore, we pass the real inode to it so that the inode information can be printed out in that case. Signed-off-by: Hongbo Li Reviewed-by: Gao Xiang Signed-off-by: Gao Xiang

erofs: hold read context in iomap_iter if needed

2026-01-14T15:31:41+00:00

Introduce `struct erofs_iomap_iter_ctx` to hold both `struct page *` and `void *base`, avoiding bogus use of `kmap_to_page()` in `erofs_iomap_end()`. With this change, fiemap and bmap no longer need to read inline data. Additionally, the upcoming page cache sharing mechanism requires passing the backing inode pointer to `erofs_iomap_{begin,end}()`, as I/O accesses must apply to backing inodes rather than anon inodes.

iomap: add caller-provided callbacks for read and readahead

2025-11-05T11:57:23+00:00

Add caller-provided callbacks for read and readahead so that it can be used generically, especially by filesystems that are not block-based. In particular, this: * Modifies the read and readahead interface to take in a struct iomap_read_folio_ctx that is publicly defined as: struct iomap_read_folio_ctx { const struct iomap_read_ops *ops; struct folio *cur_folio; struct readahead_control *rac; void *read_ctx; }; where struct iomap_read_ops is defined as: struct iomap_read_ops { int (*read_folio_range)(const struct iomap_iter *iter, struct iomap_read_folio_ctx *ctx, size_t len); void (*read_submit)(struct iomap_read_folio_ctx *ctx); }; read_folio_range() reads in the folio range and is required by the caller to provide. read_submit() is optional and is used for submitting any pending read requests. * Modifies existing filesystems that use iomap for read and readahead to use the new API, through the new statically inlined helpers iomap_bio_read_folio() and iomap_bio_readahead(). There is no change in functionality for those filesystems. Signed-off-by: Joanne Koong Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner
