Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"Apart from numerous cleanups, there are some performance improvements
and one minor mount option update. There's one more radix-tree
conversion (one remaining), and continued work towards enabling large
folios (almost finished).
Performance:
- extent buffer conversion to xarray gains throughput and runtime
improvements on metadata heavy operations doing writeback (sample
test shows +50% throughput, -33% runtime)
- extent io tree cleanups lead to performance improvements by
avoiding unnecessary searches or repeated searches
- more efficient extent unpinning when committing transaction
(estimated run time improvement 3-5%)
User visible changes:
- remove standalone mount option 'nologreplay', deprecated in 5.9,
replacement is 'rescue=nologreplay'
- in scrub, update reporting, add back device stats message after
detected errors (accidentally removed during recent refactoring)
Core:
- convert extent buffer radix tree to xarray
- in subpage mode, move block perfect compression out of experimental
build
- in zoned mode, introduce sub block groups to allow managing special
block groups, like the one for relocation or tree-log, to handle
some corner cases of ENOSPC
- in scrub, simplify bitmaps for block tracking status
- continued preparations for large folios:
- remove assertions for folio order 0
- add support where missing: compression, buffered write, defrag,
hole punching, subpage, send
- fix fsync of files with no hard links not persisting deletion
- reject tree blocks which are not nodesize aligned, a precaution
from 4.9 times
- move transaction abort calls closer to the error sites
- remove usage of some struct bio_vec internals
- simplifications in extent map
- extent IO cleanups and optimizations
- error handling improvements
- enhanced ASSERT() macro with optional format strings
- cleanups:
- remove unused code
- naming unifications, dropped __, added prefix
- merge similar functions
- use common helpers for various data structures"

Pull coredump updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds support for sending coredumps over an AF_UNIX socket. It
also makes (implicit) use of the new SO_PEERPIDFD ability to hand out
pidfds for reaped peer tasks
The new coredump socket will allow userspace to not have to rely on
usermode helpers for processing coredumps and provides a saf way to
handle them instead of relying on super privileged coredumping helpers
This will also be significantly more lightweight since the kernel
doens't have to do a fork()+exec() for each crashing process to spawn
a usermodehelper. Instead the kernel just connects to the AF_UNIX
socket and userspace can process it concurrently however it sees fit.
Support for userspace is incoming starting with systemd-coredump
There's more work coming in that direction next cycle. The rest below
goes into some details and background
Coredumping currently supports two modes:
(1) Dumping directly into a file somewhere on the filesystem.
(2) Dumping into a pipe connected to a usermode helper process
spawned as a child of the system_unbound_wq or kthreadd
For simplicity I'm mostly ignoring (1). There's probably still some
users of (1) out there but processing coredumps in this way can be
considered adventurous especially in the face of set*id binaries
The most common option should be (2) by now. It works by allowing
userspace to put a string into /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern like:
|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h
The "|" at the beginning indicates to the kernel that a pipe must be
used. The path following the pipe indicator is a path to a binary that
will be spawned as a usermode helper process. Any additional
parameters pass information about the task that is generating the
coredump to the binary that processes the coredump
In the example the core_pattern shown causes the kernel to spawn
systemd-coredump as a usermode helper. There's various conceptual
consequences of this (non-exhaustive list):
- systemd-coredump is spawned with file descriptor number 0 (stdin)
connected to the read-end of the pipe. All other file descriptors
are closed. That specifically includes 1 (stdout) and 2 (stderr).
This has already caused bugs because userspace assumed that this
cannot happen (Whether or not this is a sane assumption is
irrelevant)
- systemd-coredump will be spawned as a child of system_unbound_wq.
So it is not a child of any userspace process and specifically not
a child of PID 1. It cannot be waited upon and is in a weird hybrid
upcall which are difficult for userspace to control correctly
- systemd-coredump is spawned with full kernel privileges. This
necessitates all kinds of weird privilege dropping excercises in
userspace to make this safe
- A new usermode helper has to be spawned for each crashing process
This adds a new mode:
(3) Dumping into an AF_UNIX socket
Userspace can set /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern to:
@/path/to/coredump.socket
The "@" at the beginning indicates to the kernel that an AF_UNIX
coredump socket will be used to process coredumps
The coredump socket must be located in the initial mount namespace.
When a task coredumps it opens a client socket in the initial network
namespace and connects to the coredump socket:
- The coredump server uses SO_PEERPIDFD to get a stable handle on the
connected crashing task. The retrieved pidfd will provide a stable
reference even if the crashing task gets SIGKILLed while generating
the coredump. That is a huge attack vector right now
- By setting core_pipe_limit non-zero userspace can guarantee that
the crashing task cannot be reaped behind it's back and thus
process all necessary information in /proc/<pid>. The SO_PEERPIDFD
can be used to detect whether /proc/<pid> still refers to the same
process
The core_pipe_limit isn't used to rate-limit connections to the
socket. This can simply be done via AF_UNIX socket directly
- The pidfd for the crashing task will contain information how the
task coredumps. The PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl gained a new flag
PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP which can be used to retreive the coredump
information
If the coredump gets a new coredump client connection the kernel
guarantees that PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP information is available.
Currently the following information is provided in the new
@coredump_mask extension to struct pidfd_info:
* PIDFD_COREDUMPED is raised if the task did actually coredump
* PIDFD_COREDUMP_SKIP is raised if the task skipped coredumping
(e.g., undumpable)
* PIDFD_COREDUMP_USER is raised if this is a regular coredump and
doesn't need special care by the coredump server
* PIDFD_COREDUMP_ROOT is raised if the generated coredump should
be treated as sensitive and the coredump server should restrict
access to the generated coredump to sufficiently privileged
users"

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Allow handing out pidfds for reaped tasks for AF_UNIX SO_PEERPIDFD
socket option
SO_PEERPIDFD is a socket option that allows to retrieve a pidfd for
the process that called connect() or listen(). This is heavily used
to safely authenticate clients in userspace avoiding security bugs
due to pid recycling races (dbus, polkit, systemd, etc.)
SO_PEERPIDFD currently doesn't support handing out pidfds if the
sk->sk_peer_pid thread-group leader has already been reaped. In
this case it currently returns EINVAL. Userspace still wants to get
a pidfd for a reaped process to have a stable handle it can pass
on. This is especially useful now that it is possible to retrieve
exit information through a pidfd via the PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl()'s
PIDFD_INFO_EXIT flag
Another summary has been provided by David Rheinsberg:
> A pidfd can outlive the task it refers to, and thus user-space
> must already be prepared that the task underlying a pidfd is
> gone at the time they get their hands on the pidfd. For
> instance, resolving the pidfd to a PID via the fdinfo must be
> prepared to read `-1`.
>
> Despite user-space knowing that a pidfd might be stale, several
> kernel APIs currently add another layer that checks for this. In
> particular, SO_PEERPIDFD returns `EINVAL` if the peer-task was
> already reaped, but returns a stale pidfd if the task is reaped
> immediately after the respective alive-check.
>
> This has the unfortunate effect that user-space now has two ways
> to check for the exact same scenario: A syscall might return
> EINVAL/ESRCH/... *or* the pidfd might be stale, even though
> there is no particular reason to distinguish both cases. This
> also propagates through user-space APIs, which pass on pidfds.
> They must be prepared to pass on `-1` *or* the pidfd, because
> there is no guaranteed way to get a stale pidfd from the kernel.
>
> Userspace must already deal with a pidfd referring to a reaped
> task as the task may exit and get reaped at any time will there
> are still many pidfds referring to it
In order to allow handing out reaped pidfd SO_PEERPIDFD needs to
ensure that PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available whenever a
pidfd for a reaped task is created by PIDFD_INFO_EXIT. The uapi
promises that reaped pidfds are only handed out if it is guaranteed
that the caller sees the exit information:
TEST_F(pidfd_info, success_reaped)
{
struct pidfd_info info = {
.mask = PIDFD_INFO_CGROUPID | PIDFD_INFO_EXIT,
};
/*
* Process has already been reaped and PIDFD_INFO_EXIT been set.
* Verify that we can retrieve the exit status of the process.
*/
ASSERT_EQ(ioctl(self->child_pidfd4, PIDFD_GET_INFO, &info), 0);
ASSERT_FALSE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_CREDS));
ASSERT_TRUE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_EXIT));
ASSERT_TRUE(WIFEXITED(info.exit_code));
ASSERT_EQ(WEXITSTATUS(info.exit_code), 0);
}
To hand out pidfds for reaped processes we thus allocate a pidfs
entry for the relevant sk->sk_peer_pid at the time the
sk->sk_peer_pid is stashed and drop it when the socket is
destroyed. This guarantees that exit information will always be
recorded for the sk->sk_peer_pid task and we can hand out pidfds
for reaped processes
- Hand a pidfd to the coredump usermode helper process
Give userspace a way to instruct the kernel to install a pidfd for
the crashing process into the process started as a usermode helper.
There's still tricky race-windows that cannot be easily or
sometimes not closed at all by userspace. There's various ways like
looking at the start time of a process to make sure that the
usermode helper process is started after the crashing process but
it's all very very brittle and fraught with peril
The crashed-but-not-reaped process can be killed by userspace
before coredump processing programs like systemd-coredump have had
time to manually open a PIDFD from the PID the kernel provides
them, which means they can be tricked into reading from an
arbitrary process, and they run with full privileges as they are
usermode helper processes
Even if that specific race-window wouldn't exist it's still the
safest and cleanest way to let the kernel provide the pidfd
directly instead of requiring userspace to do it manually. In
parallel with this commit we already have systemd adding support
for this in [1]
When the usermode helper process is forked we install a pidfd file
descriptor three into the usermode helper's file descriptor table
so it's available to the exec'd program
Since usermode helpers are either children of the system_unbound_wq
workqueue or kthreadd we know that the file descriptor table is
empty and can thus always use three as the file descriptor number
Note, that we'll install a pidfd for the thread-group leader even
if a subthread is calling do_coredump(). We know that task linkage
hasn't been removed yet and even if this @current isn't the actual
thread-group leader we know that the thread-group leader cannot be
reaped until
@current has exited
- Allow telling when a task has not been found from finding the wrong
task when creating a pidfd
We currently report EINVAL whenever a struct pid has no tasked
attached anymore thereby conflating two concepts:
(1) The task has already been reaped
(2) The caller requested a pidfd for a thread-group leader but the
pid actually references a struct pid that isn't used as a
thread-group leader
This is causing issues for non-threaded workloads as in where they
expect ESRCH to be reported, not EINVAL
So allow userspace to reliably distinguish between (1) and (2)
- Make it possible to detect when a pidfs entry would outlive the
struct pid it pinned
- Add a range of new selftests
Cleanups:
- Remove unneeded NULL check from pidfd_prepare() for passed struct

Pull vfs freezing updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains various filesystem freezing related work for this cycle:
- Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend
and hibernate.
Now all the pieces are in place to actually allow the power
subsystem to freeze/thaw filesystems during suspend/resume.
Filesystems are only frozen and thawed if the power subsystem does
actually own the freeze.
If the filesystem is already frozen by the time we've frozen all
userspace processes we don't care to freeze it again. That's
userspace's job once the process resumes. We only actually freeze
filesystems if we absolutely have to and we ignore other failures
to freeze.
We could bubble up errors and fail suspend/resume if the error
isn't EBUSY (aka it's already frozen) but I don't think that this
is worth it. Filesystem freezing during suspend/resume is
best-effort. If the user has 500 ext4 filesystems mounted and 4
fail to freeze for whatever reason then we simply skip them.
What we have now is already a big improvement and let's see how we
fare with it before making our lives even harder (and uglier) than
we have to.
- Allow efivars to support freeze and thaw
Allow efivarfs to partake to resync variable state during system
hibernation and suspend. Add freeze/thaw support.
This is a pretty straightforward implementation. We simply add
regular freeze/thaw support for both userspace and the kernel.
efivars is the first pseudofilesystem that adds support for
filesystem freezing and thawing.
The simplicity comes from the fact that we simply always resync
variable state after efivarfs has been frozen. It doesn't matter
whether that's because of suspend, userspace initiated freeze or
hibernation. Efivars is simple enough that it doesn't matter that
we walk all dentries. There are no directories and there aren't
insane amounts of entries and both freeze/thaw are already
heavy-handed operations. If userspace initiated a freeze/thaw cycle
they would need CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the initial user namespace (as
that's where efivarfs is mounted) so it can't be triggered by
random userspace. IOW, we really really don't care"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their

Pull vfs directory lookup updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains cleanups for the lookup_one*() family of helpers.
We expose a set of functions with names containing "lookup_one_len"
and others without the "_len". This difference has nothing to do with
"len". It's rater a historical accident that can be confusing.
The functions without "_len" take a "mnt_idmap" pointer. This is found
in the "vfsmount" and that is an important question when choosing
which to use: do you have a vfsmount, or are you "inside" the
filesystem. A related question is "is permission checking relevant
here?".
nfsd and cachefiles *do* have a vfsmount but *don't* use the non-_len
functions. They pass nop_mnt_idmap and refuse to work on filesystems
which have any other idmap.
This work changes nfsd and cachefile to use the lookup_one family of
functions and to explictily pass &nop_mnt_idmap which is consistent
with all other vfs interfaces used where &nop_mnt_idmap is explicitly
passed.
The remaining uses of the "_one" functions do not require permission
checks so these are renamed to be "_noperm" and the permission
checking is removed.
This series also changes these lookup function to take a qstr instead
of separate name and len. In many cases this simplifies the call"

This is kind of last-minute, but Al Viro reported that the new
FOP_DONTCACHE flag causes memory corruption due to use-after-free
issues.
This was triggered by commit 974c5e6139 ("xfs: flag as supporting
FOP_DONTCACHE"), but that is not the underlying bug - it is just the
first user of the flag.
Vlastimil Babka suspects the underlying problem stems from the
folio_end_writeback() logic introduced in commit fb7d3bc414
("mm/filemap: drop streaming/uncached pages when writeback completes").
The most straightforward fix would be to just revert the commit that
exposed this, but Matthew Wilcox points out that other filesystems are
also starting to enable the FOP_DONTCACHE logic, so this instead
disables that bit globally for now.
The fix will hopefully end up being trivial and we can just re-enable
this logic after more testing, but until such a time we'll have to
disable the new FOP_DONTCACHE flag.

...
If, during a mremap() operation for a hugetlb-backed memory mapping,
copy_vma() fails after the source vma has been duplicated and opened (ie.
vma_link() fails), the error is handled by closing the new vma. This
updates the hugetlbfs reservation counter of the reservation map which at
this point is referenced by both the source vma and the new copy. As a
result, once the new vma has been freed and copy_vma() returns, the
reservation counter for the source vma will be incorrect.
This patch addresses this corner case by clearing the hugetlb private page
reservation reference for the new vma and decrementing the reference
before closing the vma, so that vma_close() won't update the reservation
counter. This is also what copy_vma_and_data() does with the source vma
if copy_vma() succeeds, so a helper function has been added to do the
fixup in both functions.
The issue was reported by a private syzbot instance and can be reproduced
using the C reproducer in [1]. It's also a possible duplicate of public
syzbot report [2]. The WARNING report is:

I am seeing soft lockup on certain machine types when a cgroup OOMs. This
is happening because killing the process in certain machine might be very
slow, which causes the soft lockup and RCU stalls. This happens usually
when the cgroup has MANY processes and memory.oom.group is set.
Example I am seeing in real production:
[462012.244552] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 3370438 (crosvm) ....
....
[462037.318059] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 4171372 (adb) ....
[462037.348314] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#64 stuck for 26s! [stat_manager-ag:1618982]
....
Quick look at why this is so slow, it seems to be related to serial flush
for certain machine types. For all the crashes I saw, the target CPU was
at console_flush_all().
In the case above, there are thousands of processes in the cgroup, and it
is soft locking up before it reaches the 1024 limit in the code (which
would call the cond_resched()). So, cond_resched() in 1024 blocks is not
sufficient.
Remove the counter-based conditional rescheduling logic and call
cond_resched() unconditionally after each task iteration, after fn() is
called. This avoids the lockup independently of how slow fn() is.

When a module gets unloaded it checks whether any of its tags are still in
use and if so, we keep the memory containing module's allocation tags
alive until all tags are unused. However percpu counters referenced by
the tags are freed by free_module(). This will lead to UAF if the memory
allocated by a module is accessed after module was unloaded.
To fix this we allocate percpu counters for module allocation tags
dynamically and we keep it alive for tags which are still in use after
module unloading. This also removes the requirement of a larger
PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE when memory allocation profiling is enabled because
percpu memory for counters does not need to be reserved anymore.

The reason is that __cma_declare_contiguous_nid() does:
highmem_start = __pa(high_memory - 1) + 1;
If dma_contiguous_reserve_area() (or any other CMA declaration) is
called before free_area_init(), high_memory is uninitialized. Without
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL, it will likely work but use the wrong value for
highmem_start.
The issue occurs because commit e120d1bc12 ("arch, mm: set high_memory
in free_area_init()") moved initialization of high_memory after the call
to dma_contiguous_reserve() -> __cma_declare_contiguous_nid() on several
architectures.
In the case CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled, some architectures that actually
support HIGHMEM (arm, powerpc and x86) have initialization of high_memory
before a possible call to __cma_declare_contiguous_nid() and some
initialized high_memory late anyway (arc, csky, microblase, mips, sparc,
xtensa) even before the commit e120d1bc12 so they are fine with using
uninitialized value of high_memory.
And in the case CONFIG_HIGHMEM is disabled high_memory essentially becomes
the first address after memory end, so instead of relying on high_memory
to calculate highmem_start use memblock_end_of_DRAM() and eliminate the
dependency of CMA area creation on high_memory in majority of
configurations.

Filesystems like XFS can implement atomic write I/O using either
REQ_ATOMIC flag set in the bio or via CoW operation. It will be useful
if we have a flag in trace events to distinguish between the two. This
patch adds char 'U' (Untorn writes) to rwbs field of the trace events
if REQ_ATOMIC flag is set in the bio.

In prior kernel versions (5.8-6.8), commit 9f6c61f96f ("proc/mounts:
add cursor") introduced MNT_CURSOR, a flag used by readers from
/proc/mounts to keep their place while reading the file. Later, commit
2eea9ce431 ("mounts: keep list of mounts in an rbtree") removed this
flag and its value has since been repurposed.
For debuggers iterating over the list of mounts, cursors should be
skipped as they are irrelevant. Detecting whether an element is a cursor
can be difficult. Since the MNT_CURSOR flag is a preprocessor constant,
it's not present in debuginfo, and since its value is repurposed, we
cannot hard-code it. For this specific issue, cursors are possible to
detect in other ways, but ideally, we would be able to read the mount
flag definitions out of the debuginfo. For that reason, convert the
mount flags to an enum.

Hashed work is serialized by io-wq, intended to be used for cases like
serializing buffered writes to a regular file, where the file system
will serialize the workers anyway with a mutex or similar. Since they
would be forcibly serialized and blocked, it's more efficient for io-wq
to handle these individually rather than issue them in parallel.
If a worker is currently handling a hashed work item and gets blocked,
don't create a new worker if the next work item is also hashed and
mapped to the same bucket. That new worker would not be able to make any
progress anyway.

When an io-wq worker goes to sleep, it checks if there's work to do.
If there is, it'll create a new worker. But if this worker is currently
idle, it'll either get woken right back up immediately, or someone
else has already created the necessary worker to handle this work.
Only go through the worker creation logic if the current worker is
currently handling a work item. That means it's being scheduled out as
part of handling that work, not just going to sleep on its own.

The ARL requires that the GMA and NPU devices both be in D3Hot in order
for PC10 and S0iX to be achieved in S2idle. The original ARL-H/U addition
to the intel_pmc_core driver attempted to do this by switching them to D3
in the init and resume calls of the intel_pmc_core driver.
The problem is the ARL-H/U have a different NPU device and thus are not
being properly set and thus S0iX does not work properly in ARL-H/U. This
patch creates a new ARL-H specific device id that is correct and also
adds the D3 fixup to the suspend callback. This way if the PCI devies
drop from D3 to D0 after resume they can be corrected for the next
suspend. Thus there is no dropout in S0iX.
