[ Upstream commit a099b09a3342a0b28ea330e405501b5b4d0424b4 ]

Previously, ext2_fiemap would unconditionally apply "len = min_t(u64, len,
i_size_read(inode));", When inode-&gt;i_size was 0 (for an empty file), this
would reduce the requested len to 0. Passing len = 0 to iomap_fiemap could
then result in an -EINVAL error, even for valid queries on empty files.

commit fcced95b6ba2a507a83b8b3e0358a8ac16b13e35 upstream.

PAGE_ALIGN(x) macro gives the next highest value which is multiple of
pagesize. But if x is already page aligned then it simply returns x.
So, if x passed is 0 in dax_zero_range() function, that means the
length gets passed as 0 to -&gt;iomap_begin().

In ext2 it then calls ext2_get_blocks -&gt; max_blocks as 0 and hits bug_on
here in ext2_get_blocks().
	BUG_ON(maxblocks == 0);

Instead we should be calling dax_truncate_page() here which takes
care of it. i.e. it only calls dax_zero_range if the offset is not
page/block aligned.

This can be easily triggered with following on fsdax mounted pmem
device.

dd if=/dev/zero of=file count=1 bs=512
truncate -s 0 file

The nobh mode is an obscure feature to save lowlevel for large memory
32-bit configurations while trading for much slower performance and
has been long obsolete.  Remove it.

<title>attr: port attribute changes to new types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b27c82e1296572cfa3997e58db3118a33915f85c</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that we introduced new infrastructure to increase the type safety
for filesystems supporting idmapped mounts port the first part of the
vfs over to them.

This ports the attribute changes codepaths to rely on the new better
helpers using a dedicated type.

Before this change we used to take a shortcut and place the actual
values that would be written to inode-&gt;i_{g,u}id into struct iattr. This
had the advantage that we moved idmappings mostly out of the picture
early on but it made reasoning about changes more difficult than it
should be.

The filesystem was never explicitly told that it dealt with an idmapped
mount. The transition to the value that needed to be stored in
inode-&gt;i_{g,u}id appeared way too early and increased the probability of
bugs in various codepaths.

We know place the same value in struct iattr no matter if this is an
idmapped mount or not. The vfs will only deal with type safe
vfs{g,u}id_t. This makes it massively safer to perform permission checks
as the type will tell us what checks we need to perform and what helpers
we need to use.

Fileystems raising FS_ALLOW_IDMAP can't simply write ia_vfs{g,u}id to
inode-&gt;i_{g,u}id since they are different types. Instead they need to
use the dedicated vfs{g,u}id_to_k{g,u}id() helpers that map the
vfs{g,u}id into the filesystem.

The other nice effect is that filesystems like overlayfs don't need to
care about idmappings explicitly anymore and can simply set up struct
iattr accordingly directly.

<title>quota: port quota helpers mount ids</title>

<id>urn:sha1:71e7b535b8900d7ce7d5279fa472711db5251ae5</id>
<content type='text'>
Port the is_quota_modification() and dqout_transfer() helper to type
safe vfs{g,u}id_t. Since these helpers are only called by a few
filesystems don't introduce a new helper but simply extend the existing
helpers to pass down the mount's idmapping.

Note, that this is a non-functional change, i.e. nothing will have
happened here or at the end of this series to how quota are done! This
a change necessary because we will at the end of this series make
ownership changes easier to reason about by keeping the original value
in struct iattr for both non-idmapped and idmapped mounts.

For now we always pass the initial idmapping which makes the idmapping
functions these helpers call nops.

This is done because we currently always pass the actual value to be
written to i_{g,u}id via struct iattr. While this allowed us to treat
the {g,u}id values in struct iattr as values that can be directly
written to inode-&gt;i_{g,u}id it also increases the potential for
confusion for filesystems.

Now that we are have dedicated types to prevent this confusion we will
ultimately only map the value from the idmapped mount into a filesystem
value that can be written to inode-&gt;i_{g,u}id when the filesystem
actually updates the inode. So pass down the initial idmapping until we
finished that conversion at which point we pass down the mount's
idmapping.

Since struct iattr uses an anonymous union with overlapping types as
supported by the C standard, filesystems that haven't converted to
ia_vfs{g,u}id won't see any difference and things will continue to work
as before. In other words, no functional changes intended with this
change.

Earlier we introduced new helpers to abstract ownership update and
remove code duplication. This converts all filesystems supporting
idmapped mounts to make use of these new helpers.

For now we always pass the initial idmapping which makes the idmapping
functions these helpers call nops.

This is done because we currently always pass the actual value to be
written to i_{g,u}id via struct iattr. While this allowed us to treat
