Add a SB_I_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY superblock flag for filesystems that cannot
guarantee data persistence on sync (eg fuse). For superblocks with this
flag set, sync kicks off writeback of dirty inodes but does not wait
for the flusher threads to complete the writeback.
This replaces the per-inode AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mapping flag added in
commit f9a49aa302a0 ("fs/writeback: skip AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mappings
in wait_sb_inodes()"). The flag belongs at the superblock level because
data integrity is a filesystem-wide property, not a per-inode one.
Having this flag at the superblock level also allows us to skip having
to iterate every dirty inode in wait_sb_inodes() only to skip each inode
individually.
Prior to this commit, mappings with no data integrity guarantees skipped
waiting on writeback completion but still waited on the flusher threads
to finish initiating the writeback. Waiting on the flusher threads is
unnecessary. This commit kicks off writeback but does not wait on the
flusher threads. This change properly addresses a recent report [1] for
a suspend-to-RAM hang seen on fuse-overlayfs that was caused by waiting
on the flusher threads to finish:

On fuse this is problematic because there are paths that may cause the
flusher thread to block (eg if systemd freezes the user session cgroups
first, which freezes the fuse daemon, before invoking the kernel
suspend. The kernel suspend triggers ->write_node() which on fuse issues
a synchronous setattr request, which cannot be processed since the
daemon is frozen. Or if the daemon is buggy and cannot properly complete
writeback, initiating writeback on a dirty folio already under writeback
leads to writeback_get_folio() -> folio_prepare_writeback() ->
unconditional wait on writeback to finish, which will cause a hang).
This commit restores fuse to its prior behavior before tmp folios were
removed, where sync was essentially a no-op.

For file systems implementing ->sync_lazytime, I_DIRTY_TIME fails to get
cleared in sync_lazytime, and might cause additional calls to
sync_lazytime during inode deactivation. Use the same pattern as in
__mark_inode_dirty to clear the flag under the inode lock.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
- Fix an uninitialized variable in file_getattr().
The flags_valid field wasn't initialized before calling
vfs_fileattr_get(), triggering KMSAN uninit-value reports in fuse
- Fix writeback wakeup and logging timeouts when DETECT_HUNG_TASK is
not enabled.
sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs is 0 in that case causing spurious
"waiting for writeback completion for more than 1 seconds" warnings
- Fix a null-ptr-deref in do_statmount() when the mount is internal
- Add missing kernel-doc description for the @private parameter in
iomap_readahead()
- Fix mount namespace creation to hold namespace_sem across the mount
copy in create_new_namespace().
The previous drop-and-reacquire pattern was fragile and failed to
clean up mount propagation links if the real rootfs was a shared or
dependent mount
- Fix /proc mount iteration where m->index wasn't updated when
m->show() overflows, causing a restart to repeatedly show the same
mount entry in a rapidly expanding mount table
- Return EFSCORRUPTED instead of ENOSPC in minix_new_inode() when the
inode number is out of range
- Fix unshare(2) when CLONE_NEWNS is set and current->fs isn't shared.
copy_mnt_ns() received the live fs_struct so if a subsequent
namespace creation failed the rollback would leave pwd and root
pointing to detached mounts. Always allocate a new fs_struct when
CLONE_NEWNS is requested
- fserror bug fixes:
- Remove the unused fsnotify_sb_error() helper now that all callers
have been converted to fserror_report_metadata
- Fix a lockdep splat in fserror_report() where igrab() takes
inode::i_lock which can be held in IRQ context.
Replace igrab() with a direct i_count bump since filesystems
should not report inodes that are about to be freed or not yet
exposed
- Handle error pointer in procfs for try_lookup_noperm()
- Fix an integer overflow in ep_loop_check_proc() where recursive calls
returning INT_MAX would overflow when +1 is added, breaking the
recursion depth check

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
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), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Recent changes of fs-writeback cause such warnings if DETECT_HUNG_TASK
is not enabled:
INFO: The task sync:1342 has been waiting for writeback completion for more than 1 seconds.
The reason is sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs is 0 when DETECT_HUNG_TASK
is not enabled, then it causes the warning message even if the writeback
lasts for only one second.
Guard the wakeup and logging with "#ifdef CONFIG_DETECT_HUNG_TASK" can
eliminate the warning messages. But on the other hand, it is possible
that sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs be also 0 when DETECT_HUNG_TASK is
enabled. So let's just check the value of sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs
to decide whether do wakeup and logging.
Fixes: 1888635532fb ("writeback: Wake up waiting tasks when finishing the writeback of a chunk.")

Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the changes to support non-blocking timestamp updates.
Since commit 66fa3cedf16a ("fs: Add async write file modification
handling") file_update_time_flags() unconditionally returns -EAGAIN
when any timestamp needs updating and IOCB_NOWAIT is set. This makes
non-blocking direct writes impossible on file systems with granular
enough timestamps, which in practice means all of them.
This reworks the timestamp update path to propagate IOCB_NOWAIT
through ->update_time so that file systems which can update timestamps
without blocking are no longer penalized.
With that groundwork in place, the core change passes IOCB_NOWAIT into
->update_time and returns -EAGAIN only when the file system indicates
it would block.
XFS implements non-blocking timestamp updates by using the new
->sync_lazytime and open-coding generic_update_time without the
S_NOWAIT check, since the lazytime path through the generic helpers
can never block in XFS"

Above the while() loop in wait_sb_inodes(), we document that we must wait
for all pages under writeback for data integrity. Consequently, if a
mapping, like fuse, traditionally does not have data integrity semantics,
there is no need to wait at all; we can simply skip these inodes.
This restores fuse back to prior behavior where syncs are no-ops. This
fixes a user regression where if a system is running a faulty fuse server
that does not reply to issued write requests, this causes wait_sb_inodes()
to wait forever.

When vm.dirtytime_expire_seconds is set to 0, wakeup_dirtytime_writeback()
schedules delayed work with a delay of 0, causing immediate execution.
The function then reschedules itself with 0 delay again, creating an
infinite busy loop that causes 100% kworker CPU usage.
Fix by:
- Only scheduling delayed work in wakeup_dirtytime_writeback() when
dirtytime_expire_interval is non-zero
- Cancelling the delayed work in dirtytime_interval_handler() when
the interval is set to 0
- Adding a guard in start_dirtytime_writeback() for defensive coding
Tested by booting kernel in QEMU with virtme-ng:
- Before fix: kworker CPU spikes to ~73%
- After fix: CPU remains at normal levels
- Setting interval back to non-zero correctly resumes writeback

"Features:

Writing back a large number of pages can take a lots of time.
This issue is exacerbated when the underlying device is slow or
subject to block layer rate limiting, which in turn triggers
unexpected hung task warnings.
We can trigger a wake-up once a chunk has been written back and the
waiting time for writeback exceeds half of
sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs.
This action allows the hung task detector to be aware of the writeback
progress, thereby eliminating these unexpected hung task warnings.
This patch has passed the xfstests 'check -g quick' test based on ext4,
with no additional failures introduced.

Pull vfs writeback updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains work adressing lockups reported by users when a systemd
unit reading lots of files from a filesystem mounted with the lazytime
mount option exits.
With the lazytime mount option enabled we can be switching many dirty
inodes on cgroup exit to the parent cgroup. The numbers observed in
practice when systemd slice of a large cron job exits can easily reach
hundreds of thousands or millions.
The logic in inode_do_switch_wbs() which sorts the inode into
appropriate place in b_dirty list of the target wb however has linear
complexity in the number of dirty inodes thus overall time complexity
of switching all the inodes is quadratic leading to workers being
pegged for hours consuming 100% of the CPU and switching inodes to the
parent wb.
Simple reproducer of the issue:
FILES=10000
# Filesystem mounted with lazytime mount option
MNT=/mnt/
echo "Creating files and switching timestamps"
for (( j = 0; j < 50; j ++ )); do
mkdir $MNT/dir$j

cat /mnt/dir$j/file* >/dev/null &
done
wait
echo "Switching wbs"
# Now rmdir the cgroup after the script exits
This can be solved by:
- Avoiding contention on the wb->list_lock when switching inodes by
running a single work item per wb and managing a queue of items
switching to the wb
- Allowing rescheduling when switching inodes over to a different
cgroup to avoid softlockups
- Maintaining the b_dirty list ordering instead of sorting it"

Pull vfs workqueue updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains various workqueue changes affecting the filesystem
layer.
Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work()
the used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies
to schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that
makes use again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This replaces the use of system_wq and system_unbound_wq. system_wq is
a per-CPU workqueue which isn't very obvious from the name and
system_unbound_wq is to be used when locality is not required.
So this renames system_wq to system_percpu_wq, and system_unbound_wq
to system_dfl_wq.
This also adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to allow the fs subsystem users to
explicitly request the use of per-CPU behavior. Both WQ_UNBOUND and
WQ_PERCPU flags coexist for one release cycle to allow callers to
transition their calls. WQ_UNBOUND will be removed in a next release
cycle"

Pull vfs inode updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a series I originally wrote and that Eric brought over
the finish line. It moves out the i_crypt_info and i_verity_info
pointers out of 'struct inode' and into the fs-specific part of the
inode.
So now the few filesytems that actually make use of this pay the price
in their own private inode storage instead of forcing it upon every
user of struct inode.
The pointer for the crypt and verity info is simply found by storing
an offset to its address in struct fsverity_operations and struct
fscrypt_operations. This shrinks struct inode by 16 bytes.
I hope to move a lot more out of it in the future so that struct inode
becomes really just about very core stuff that we need, much like
struct dentry and struct file, instead of the dumping ground it has
become over the years.
On top of this are a various changes associated with the ongoing inode
lifetime handling rework that multiple people are pushing forward:
- Stop accessing inode->i_count directly in f2fs and gfs2. They
simply should use the __iget() and iput() helpers
- Make the i_state flags an enum
- Rework the iput() logic
Currently, if we are the last iput, and we have the I_DIRTY_TIME
bit set, we will grab a reference on the inode again and then mark
it dirty and then redo the put. This is to make sure we delay the
time update for as long as possible
We can rework this logic to simply dec i_count if it is not 1, and
if it is do the time update while still holding the i_count
reference
Then we can replace the atomic_dec_and_lock with locking the
->i_lock and doing atomic_dec_and_test, since we did the
atomic_add_unless above
- Add an icount_read() helper and convert everyone that accesses
inode->i_count directly for this purpose to use the helper
- Expand dump_inode() to dump more information about an inode helping
in debugging
- Add some might_sleep() annotations to iput() and associated
helpers"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");
Cleanups:

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to all the fs subsystem users to
explicitly request the use of the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist
for one release cycle to allow callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

We need to maintain b_dirty list ordering to keep writeback happy so
instead of sorting inode into appropriate place just append it at the
end of the list and clobber dirtied_time_when. This may result in inode
writeback starting later after cgroup switch however cgroup switches are
rare so it shouldn't matter much. Since the cgroup had write access to
the inode, there are no practical concerns of the possible DoS issues.

different cgroup. Since switching an inode requires counting all dirty &
under-writeback pages in the address space of each inode, this can take
a significant amount of time. Add a possibility to reschedule after
processing each inode to avoid softlockups.

There can be multiple inode switch works that are trying to switch
inodes to / from the same wb. This can happen in particular if some
cgroup exits which owns many (thousands) inodes and we need to switch
them all. In this case several inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() instances will
be just spinning on the same wb->list_lock while only one of them makes
forward progress. This wastes CPU cycles and quickly leads to softlockup
reports and unusable system.
Instead of running several inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() instances in
parallel switching to the same wb and contending on wb->list_lock, run
just one work item per wb and manage a queue of isw items switching to
this wb.

Most of the callers of wbc_account_cgroup_owner() are converting a folio
to page before calling the function. wbc_account_cgroup_owner() is
converting the page back to a folio to call mem_cgroup_css_from_folio().
Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio instead of a page,
and convert all callers to pass a folio directly except f2fs.
Convert the page to folio for all the callers from f2fs as they were the
only callers calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a page. As f2fs is
already in the process of converting to folios, these call sites might
also soon be calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a folio directly in
the future.
No functional changes. Only compile tested.

to just one lock acquire.

When deactivating any type of superblock, it had to wait for the in-flight
wb switches to be completed. wb switches are executed in inode_switch_wbs_work_fn()
which needs to acquire the wb_switch_rwsem and races against sync_inodes_sb().
If there are too much dirty data in the superblock, the waiting time may increase
significantly.
For superblocks without cgroup writeback such as tmpfs, they have nothing to
do with the wb swithes, so the flushing can be avoided.

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function
signatures. This is a prerequisite to moving the static ctl_table
structs into .rodata data which will ensure that proc_handler function
pointers cannot be modified.
This patch has been generated by the following coccinelle script:
```
virtual patch
@r1@
identifier ctl, write, buffer, lenp, ppos;
identifier func !~ "appldata_(timer|interval)_handler|sched_(rt|rr)_handler|rds_tcp_skbuf_handler|proc_sctp_do_(hmac_alg|rto_min|rto_max|udp_port|alpha_beta|auth|probe_interval)";
@@
int func(
- struct ctl_table *ctl

```
* Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code
conventions. The xfs_stats_clear_proc_handler,
xfs_panic_mask_proc_handler and xfs_deprecated_dointvec_minmax where
adjusted.
* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
proc_handler migration.

writeback_inodes_sb doesn't have return value, just remove unnecessary

Commit e8e8a0c6c9bfc ("writeback: move nr_pages == 0 logic to one
location") removed parameter nr_pages of __wakeup_flusher_threads_bdi
and we try to writeback all dirty pages in __wakeup_flusher_threads_bdi
now. Just correct stale comment.
