Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this work. In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/ directory only. The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL. Let us recap the purpose of this work: - this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array - the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the struct ctl_table. Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer as he has moved on to other projects and has had no time to help at all" * tag 'sysctl-6.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: sysctl: remove struct ctl_path sysctl: delete unused define SYSCTL_PERM_EMPTY_DIR coda: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array sysctl: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array fs: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array cachefiles: Remove the now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_table array sysclt: Clarify the results of selftest run sysctl: Add a selftest for handling empty dirs sysctl: Fix out of bounds access for empty sysctl registers MAINTAINERS: Add Joel Granados as co-maintainer for proc sysctl MAINTAINERS: remove Iurii Zaikin from proc sysctl

fs: convert block_write_full_page to block_write_full_folio

2023-12-29T19:58:35+00:00

Convert the function to be compatible with writepage_t so that it can be passed to write_cache_pages() by blkdev. This removes a call to compound_head(). We can also remove the function export as both callers are built-in.

fs: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array

2023-12-28T12:57:57+00:00

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the register sysctl call that expects a size. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

fs: Rename mapping private members

2023-11-21T10:57:10+00:00

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.

Pull vfs fanotify fsid updates from Christian Brauner: "This work is part of the plan to enable fanotify to serve as a drop-in replacement for inotify. While inotify is availabe on all filesystems, fanotify currently isn't. In order to support fanotify on all filesystems two things are needed: (1) all filesystems need to support AT_HANDLE_FID (2) all filesystems need to report a non-zero f_fsid This contains (1) and allows filesystems to encode non-decodable file handlers for fanotify without implementing any exportfs operations by encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from i_ino and i_generation. Filesystems that want to opt out of encoding non-decodable file ids for fanotify that don't support NFS export can do so by providing an empty export_operations struct. This also partially addresses (2) by generating f_fsid for simple filesystems as well as freevxfs. Remaining filesystems will be dealt with by separate patches. Finally, this contains the patch from the current exportfs maintainers which moves exportfs under vfs with Chuck, Jeff, and Amir as maintainers and vfs.git as tree" * tag 'vfs-6.7.fsid' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: MAINTAINERS: create an entry for exportfs fs: fix build error with CONFIG_EXPORTFS=m or not defined freevxfs: derive f_fsid from bdev->bd_dev fs: report f_fsid from s_dev for "simple" filesystems exportfs: support encoding non-decodeable file handles by default exportfs: define FILEID_INO64_GEN* file handle types exportfs: make ->encode_fh() a mandatory method for NFS export exportfs: add helpers to check if filesystem can encode/decode file handles

exportfs: make ->encode_fh() a mandatory method for NFS export

2023-10-28T14:15:15+00:00

Rename the default helper for encoding FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles to generic_encode_ino32_fh() and convert the filesystems that used the default implementation to use the generic helper explicitly. After this change, exportfs_encode_inode_fh() no longer has a default implementation to encode FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles. This is a step towards allowing filesystems to encode non-decodeable file handles for fanotify without having to implement any export_operations.
