Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Reduce pipe->mutex contention by pre-allocating pages outside the
lock in anon_pipe_write().
anon_pipe_write() called alloc_page() once per page while holding
pipe->mutex. The allocation can sleep doing direct reclaim and runs
memcg charging, which extends the critical section and stalls any
concurrent reader on the same mutex. Now up to 8 pages are
pre-allocated before the mutex is taken, leftovers are recycled
into the per-pipe tmp_page[] cache before unlock, and any remainder
is released after unlock, keeping the allocator out of the critical
section on both sides. On a writers x readers sweep with 64KB
writes against a 1 MB pipe throughput improves 6-28% and average
write latency drops 5-22%; under memory pressure - when the cost of
holding the mutex across reclaim is highest - throughput improves
21-48% and latency drops 17-33%. The microbenchmark is added to
selftests.
- uaccess/sockptr: fix the ignored_trailing logic in
copy_struct_to_user() to behave as documented and the usize check
in copy_struct_from_sockptr() for user pointers, and add
copy_struct_{from,to}_bounce_buffer() and copy_struct_to_sockptr()
helpers for upcoming users (IPPROTO_SMBDIRECT, IPPROTO_QUIC).
- bpf: add a sleepable bpf_real_inode() kfunc that resolves the real
inode backing a dentry via d_real_inode(). On overlayfs the inode
attached to the dentry doesn't carry the underlying device
information; this is used by the filesystem restriction BPF program
that was merged into systemd.
- docs: add guidelines for submitting new filesystems, motivated by
the maintenance burden abandoned and untestable filesystems impose
on VFS developers, blocking infrastructure work like folio
conversions and iomap migration.
Fixes:
- libfs: set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV by default in init_pseudo()
and drop the now-redundant assignments in callers. This began as a
one-line dma-buf fix for a path_noexec() warning; a pseudo
filesystem has no reason not to set SB_I_NOEXEC. All init_pseudo()
callers were audited: the only visible effect is on dma-buf where
SB_I_NOEXEC silences the warning.
- Handle set_blocksize() failures in legacy filesystems (bfs, hpfs,
qnx4, jfs, befs, affs, isofs, minix, ntfs3, omfs). Mounting a
device with a sector size > PAGE_SIZE crashed roughly half of them;
the rest had the same missing error handling pattern. Plus a
follow-up releasing the superblock buffer_head when setting the
minix v3 block size fails.
- mount: honour SB_NOUSER in the new mount API.
- fs/fcntl: fix a SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order in fasync signaling by
switching the process-group paths of send_sigio() and send_sigurg()
from read_lock(&tasklist_lock) to RCU, matching the single-PID
path.
- vfs: add an FS_USERNS_DELEGATABLE flag and set it for NFS, fixing
delegated NFS mounts (fsopen() in a container with the mount
performed by a privileged daemon) that broke when non-init
s_user_ns was tied to FS_USERNS_MOUNT.
- selftests/namespaces: fix a hang in nsid_test where an unreaped
grandchild kept the TAP pipe write-end open, a waitpid(-1) race in
listns_efault_test, and a false FAIL on kernels without listns()
where the tests should SKIP.
- filelock: fix the break_lease() stub signature for
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING=n.
- init/initramfs_test: wait for the async initramfs unpacking before
running; the test and do_populate_rootfs() share the parser state.
- fs/coredump: reduce redundant log noise in
validate_coredump_safety().
- iomap: pass the correct length to fserror_report_io() in
__iomap_write_begin().
- backing-file: fix the backing_file_open() kerneldoc.
Cleanups:
- initramfs: refactor the cpio hex header parsing to use hex2bin()
instead of the hand-rolled simple_strntoul() which is reverted, and
extend the initramfs KUnit tests to cover header fields with 0x
prefixes.
- Replace __get_free_pages() and friends with kmalloc()/kzalloc()
across quota, proc, ocfs2/dlm, nilfs2, nfs, nfsd, libfs, jfs, jbd2,
isofs, fuse, select, namespace, configfs, binfmt_misc, bfs, and the
do_mounts init code - part of the larger work of replacing page
allocator calls with kmalloc().
- Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() in unlock_buffer() and
journal_end_buffer_io_sync() instead of open-coding the sequence.
- Drop unused VFS exports: unexport drop_super_exclusive(), remove
start_removing_user_path_at(), and fold __start_removing_path()
into start_removing_path().
- fs/read_write: narrow the __kernel_write() export with
EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES().
- vfs: uapi: retire octal and hex constants in favor of (1 << n) for
the O_ flags. Finding a free bit for a new flag across the
architectures was needlessly hard with the mixed bases.
- dcache: add extra sanity checks of dead dentries in dentry_free()
via a new DENTRY_WARN_ONCE() that also prints d_flags.
- iov_iter: use kmemdup_array() in dup_iter() to harden the
allocation against multiplication overflow.
- fs/pipe: write to ->poll_usage only once.
- vfs: remove an always-taken if-branch in find_next_fd().
- dcache: use kmalloc_flex() for struct external_name in __d_alloc().
- namei: use QSTR() instead of QSTR_INIT() in path_pts().
- sync_file_range: delete dead S_ISLNK code.
- Comment fixes: retire a stale comment in fget_task_next() and fix
assorted spelling mistakes"

Unify end_buffer_read_sync() and __end_buffer_read_notouch()
by requiring the caller put the refcount on the buffer. The only caller
is in the gfs2_meta_read() path, and there we can put the refcount
after locking the buffer.

This shrinks buffer_head by 8 bytes, letting us pack more buffer heads
per slab. With a Debian config, it shrinks from 104 bytes to 96 bytes
which is 42 objects per 4KiB page rather than 39, a 7% reduction in the
amount of memory used.

Use `clear_and_wake_up_bit()` in `unlock_buffer()`, since the helper was
introduced in 'commit 8236b0ae31c83 ("bdi: wake up concurrent
wb_shutdown() callers.")' as a generic way of doing the same sequence of
operations:
clear_bit_unlock();
smp_mb__after_atomic();
wake_up_bit();
The helper was implemented to avoid bugs caused by forgetting to call
`wake_up_bit()` after `clear_bit_unlock()`.
Since `unlock_buffer()` predates git and was last modified in
'commit 4e857c58efeb9 ("arch: Mass conversion of smp_mb__*()")', years
before `clear_and_wake_up_bit()`, it still uses the open-coded sequence.
Replace the open-coded sequence with the helper to avoid duplicate code
and reduce code paths to maintain.

When a metadata block is referenced by multiple inodes and tracked by
metadata bh infrastructure (which is forbidden and generally indicates
filesystem corruption), it can happen that mmb_mark_buffer_dirty() is
called for two different mmb structures in parallel. This can lead to a
corruption of mmb linked list. Handle that situation gracefully (at
least from mmb POV) by serializing on setting bh->b_mmb.

In the near future, a folio will no longer pin its corresponding memory
cgroup. To ensure safety, it will only be appropriate to hold the rcu
read lock or acquire a reference to the memory cgroup returned by
folio_memcg(), thereby preventing it from being released.
In the current patch, the function get_mem_cgroup_from_folio() is employed
to safeguard against the release of the memory cgroup. This serves as a
preparatory measure for the reparenting of the LRU pages.

Instead of tracking metadata bhs for a mapping using i_private_list and
i_private_lock create a dedicated mapping_metadata_bhs struct for it.
So far this struct is embedded in address_space but that will be
switched for per-fs private inode parts later in the series. This also
changes the locking from bdev mapping's i_private_lock to a new lock
embedded in mapping_metadata_bhs to untangle the i_private_lock locking
for maintaining lists of metadata bhs and the locking for looking up /
reclaiming bdev's buffer heads. The locking in remove_assoc_map() gets
more complex due to this but overall this looks like a reasonable
tradeoff.

There are only a few filesystems that use generic tracking of inode
metadata buffer heads. As such the logic to reclaim tracked metadata
buffer heads in inode_lru_isolate() doesn't bring a benefit big enough
to justify intertwining of inode reclaim and metadata buffer head
tracking. Just treat tracked metadata buffer heads as any other metadata
filesystem has to properly clean up on inode eviction and stop handling
it in inode_lru_isolate(). As a result filesystems using generic
tracking of metadata buffer heads may now see dirty metadata buffers in
their .evict methods more often which can slow down inode reclaim but
given these filesystems aren't used in performance demanding setups we
should be fine.

instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)

Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)

try_to_free_buffers() can be called on folios with no buffers attached
when filemap_release_folio() is invoked on a folio belonging to a mapping
with AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS set but no release_folio operation defined.
In such cases, folio_needs_release() returns true because of the
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag, but the folio has no private buffer data. This
causes try_to_free_buffers() to call drop_buffers() on a folio with no
buffers, leading to a null pointer dereference.
Adding a check in try_to_free_buffers() to return early if the folio has no
buffers attached, with WARN_ON_ONCE() to alert about the misconfiguration.
This provides defensive hardening.

min_t(unsigned int, a, b) casts an 'unsigned long' to 'unsigned int'.
Use min(a, b) instead as it promotes any 'unsigned int' to 'unsigned long'
and so cannot discard significant bits.
A couple of places need umin() because of loops like:
nfolios = DIV_ROUND_UP(ret + start, PAGE_SIZE);
for (i = 0; i < nfolios; i++) {
struct folio *folio = page_folio(pages[i]);
...
unsigned int len = umin(ret, PAGE_SIZE - start);
...
ret -= len;
...
}
where the compiler doesn't track things well enough to know that
'ret' is never negative.
The alternate loop:
for (i = 0; ret > 0; i++) {
struct folio *folio = page_folio(pages[i]);
...
unsigned int len = min(ret, PAGE_SIZE - start);
...
ret -= len;
...
}
would be equivalent and doesn't need 'nfolios'.
Most of the 'unsigned long' actually come from PAGE_SIZE.
Detected by an extra check added to min_t().

Pull folio updates from Christian Brauner:
"Add a new folio_next_pos() helper function that returns the file
position of the first byte after the current folio. This is a common
operation in filesystems when needing to know the end of the current
folio.
The helper is lifted from btrfs which already had its own version, and
is now used across multiple filesystems and subsystems:
- btrfs
- buffer
- ext4
- f2fs
- gfs2
- iomap
- netfs
- xfs
- mm
This fixes a long-standing bug in ocfs2 on 32-bit systems with files
larger than 2GiB. Presumably this is not a common configuration, but
the fix is backported anyway. The other filesystems did not have bugs,
they were just mildly inefficient.
This also introduce uoff_t as the unsigned version of loff_t. A recent
commit inadvertently changed a comparison from being unsigned (on
64-bit systems) to being signed (which it had always been on 32-bit
systems), leading to sporadic fstests failures.
Generally file sizes are restricted to being a signed integer, but in
places where -1 is passed to indicate "up to the end of the file", it
is convenient to have an unsigned type to ensure comparisons are
always unsigned regardless of architecture"

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.

There's issue as follows:
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in end_buffer_read_sync+0xe3/0x110

Above issue happens when do ntfs3 filesystem mount, issue may happens
as follows:
mount IRQ
ntfs_fill_super
read_cache_page
do_read_cache_folio
filemap_read_folio
mpage_read_folio
do_mpage_readpage
ntfs_get_block_vbo
bh_read
submit_bh
wait_on_buffer(bh);
blk_complete_reqs
scsi_io_completion
scsi_end_request
blk_update_request
end_bio_bh_io_sync
end_buffer_read_sync
__end_buffer_read_notouch
unlock_buffer
wait_on_buffer(bh);--> return will return to caller
put_bh
--> trigger stack-out-of-bounds
In the mpage_read_folio() function, the stack variable 'map_bh' is
passed to ntfs_get_block_vbo(). Once unlock_buffer() unlocks and
wait_on_buffer() returns to continue processing, the stack variable
is likely to be reclaimed. Consequently, during the end_buffer_read_sync()
process, calling put_bh() may result in stack overrun.
If the bh is not allocated on the stack, it belongs to a folio. Freeing
a buffer head which belongs to a folio is done by drop_buffers() which
will fail to free buffers which are still locked. So it is safe to call
put_bh() before __end_buffer_read_notouch().

Change the address_space_operations callbacks write_begin() and
write_end() to take struct kiocb * as the first argument instead of
struct file *.
Update all affected function prototypes, implementations, call sites,
and related documentation across VFS, filesystems, and block layer.
Part of a series refactoring address_space_operations write_begin and
write_end callbacks to use struct kiocb for passing write context and
flags.

All filesystems will already check the max and min value of their block
size during their initialization. __getblk_slow() is a very low-level
function to have these checks. Remove them and only check for logical
block size alignment.
As this check with logical block size alignment might never trigger, add
WARN_ON_ONCE() to the check. As WARN_ON_ONCE() will already print the
stack, remove the call to dump_stack().
