Merge tag 'vfs-7.0-rc1.misc.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull more misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner: "Features: - Optimize close_range() from O(range size) to O(active FDs) by using find_next_bit() on the open_fds bitmap instead of linearly scanning the entire requested range. This is a significant improvement for large-range close operations on sparse file descriptor tables. - Add FS_XFLAG_VERITY file attribute for fs-verity files, retrievable via FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and file_getattr(). The flag is read-only. Add tracepoints for fs-verity enable and verify operations, replacing the previously removed debug printk's. - Prevent nfsd from exporting special kernel filesystems like pidfs and nsfs. These filesystems have custom ->open() and ->permission() export methods that are designed for open_by_handle_at(2) only and are incompatible with nfsd. Update the exportfs documentation accordingly. Fixes: - Fix KMSAN uninit-value in ovl_fill_real() where strcmp() was used on a non-null-terminated decrypted directory entry name from fscrypt. This triggered on encrypted lower layers when the decrypted name buffer contained uninitialized tail data. The fix also adds VFS-level name_is_dot(), name_is_dotdot(), and name_is_dot_dotdot() helpers, replacing various open-coded "." and ".." checks across the tree. - Fix read-only fsflags not being reset together with xflags in vfs_fileattr_set(). Currently harmless since no read-only xflags overlap with flags, but this would cause inconsistencies for any future shared read-only flag - Return -EREMOTE instead of -ESRCH from PIDFD_GET_INFO when the target process is in a different pid namespace. This lets userspace distinguish "process exited" from "process in another namespace", matching glibc's pidfd_getpid() behavior Cleanups: - Use C-string literals in the Rust seq_file bindings, replacing the kernel::c_str!() macro (available since Rust 1.77) - Fix typo in d_walk_ret enum comment, add porting notes for the readlink_copy() calling convention change" * tag 'vfs-7.0-rc1.misc.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: add porting notes about readlink_copy() pidfs: return -EREMOTE when PIDFD_GET_INFO is called on another ns nfsd: do not allow exporting of special kernel filesystems exportfs: clarify the documentation of open()/permission() expotrfs ops fsverity: add tracepoints fs: add FS_XFLAG_VERITY for fs-verity files rust: seq_file: replace `kernel::c_str!` with C-Strings fs: dcache: fix typo in enum d_walk_ret comment ovl: use name_is_dot* helpers in readdir code fs: add helpers name_is_dot{,dot,_dotdot} ovl: Fix uninit-value in ovl_fill_real fs: reset read-only fsflags together with xflags fs/file: optimize close_range() complexity from O(N) to O(Sparse)
