Pull pdfd updates from Christian Brauner:
- Until now pidfds could only be created for thread-group leaders but
not for threads. There was no technical reason for this. We simply
had no users that needed support for this. Now we do have users that
need support for this.
This introduces a new PIDFD_THREAD flag for pidfd_open(). If that
flag is set pidfd_open() creates a pidfd that refers to a specific
thread.
In addition, we now allow clone() and clone3() to be called with
CLONE_PIDFD | CLONE_THREAD which wasn't possible before.
A pidfd that refers to an individual thread differs from a pidfd that
refers to a thread-group leader:
(1) Pidfds are pollable. A task may poll a pidfd and get notified
when the task has exited.
For thread-group leader pidfds the polling task is woken if the
thread-group is empty. In other words, if the thread-group
leader task exits when there are still threads alive in its
thread-group the polling task will not be woken when the
thread-group leader exits but rather when the last thread in the
thread-group exits.
For thread-specific pidfds the polling task is woken if the
thread exits.
(2) Passing a thread-group leader pidfd to pidfd_send_signal() will
generate thread-group directed signals like kill(2) does.
Passing a thread-specific pidfd to pidfd_send_signal() will
generate thread-specific signals like tgkill(2) does.
The default scope of the signal is thus determined by the type
of the pidfd.
Since use-cases exist where the default scope of the provided
pidfd needs to be overriden the following flags are added to
pidfd_send_signal():
- PIDFD_SIGNAL_THREAD
Send a thread-specific signal.
- PIDFD_SIGNAL_THREAD_GROUP
Send a thread-group directed signal.
- PIDFD_SIGNAL_PROCESS_GROUP
Send a process-group directed signal.
The scope change will only work if the struct pid is actually
used for this scope.
For example, in order to send a thread-group directed signal the
provided pidfd must be used as a thread-group leader and
similarly for PIDFD_SIGNAL_PROCESS_GROUP the struct pid must be
used as a process group leader.
- Move pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a tiny pseudo
filesystem. This will unblock further work that we weren't able to do
simply because of the very justified limitations of anonymous inodes.
Moving pidfds to a tiny pseudo filesystem allows for statx on pidfds
to become useful for the first time. They can now be compared by
inode number which are unique for the system lifetime.
Instead of stashing struct pid in file->private_data we can now stash
it in inode->i_private. This makes it possible to introduce concepts
that operate on a process once all file descriptors have been closed.
A concrete example is kill-on-last-close. Another side-effect is that
file->private_data is now freed up for per-file options for pidfds.
Now, each struct pid will refer to a different inode but the same
struct pid will refer to the same inode if it's opened multiple
times. In contrast to now where each struct pid refers to the same
inode.
The tiny pseudo filesystem is not visible anywhere in userspace
exactly like e.g., pipefs and sockfs. There's no lookup, there's no
complex inode operations, nothing. Dentries and inodes are always
deleted when the last pidfd is closed.
We allocate a new inode and dentry for each struct pid and we reuse
that inode and dentry for all pidfds that refer to the same struct
pid. The code is entirely optional and fairly small. If it's not
selected we fallback to anonymous inodes. Heavily inspired by nsfs.
The dentry and inode allocation mechanism is moved into generic
infrastructure that is now shared between nsfs and pidfs. The
path_from_stashed() helper must be provided with a stashing location,
an inode number, a mount, and the private data that is supposed to be
used and it will provide a path that can be passed to dentry_open().
The helper will try retrieve an existing dentry from the provided
stashing location. If a valid dentry is found it is reused. If not a
new one is allocated and we try to stash it in the provided location.
If this fails we retry until we either find an existing dentry or the
newly allocated dentry could be stashed. Subsequent openers of the
same namespace or task are then able to reuse it.
- Currently it is only possible to get notified when a task has exited,
i.e., become a zombie and userspace gets notified with EPOLLIN. We
now also support waiting until the task has been reaped, notifying
userspace with EPOLLHUP.
- Ensure that ESRCH is reported for getfd if a task is exiting instead
of the confusing EBADF.
- Various smaller cleanups to pidfd functions.

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This extends the netfs helper library that network filesystems can use
to replace their own implementations. Both afs and 9p are ported. cifs
is ready as well but the patches are way bigger and will be routed
separately once this is merged. That will remove lots of code as well.
The overal goal is to get high-level I/O and knowledge of the page
cache and ouf of the filesystem drivers. This includes knowledge about
the existence of pages and folios
The pull request converts afs and 9p. This removes about 800 lines of
code from afs and 300 from 9p. For 9p it is now possible to do writes
in larger than a page chunks. Additionally, multipage folio support
can be turned on for 9p. Separate patches exist for cifs removing
another 2000+ lines. I've included detailed information in the
individual pulls I took.
Summary:
- Add NFS-style (and Ceph-style) locking around DIO vs buffered I/O
calls to prevent these from happening at the same time.
- Support for direct and unbuffered I/O.
- Support for write-through caching in the page cache.
- O_*SYNC and RWF_*SYNC writes use write-through rather than writing
to the page cache and then flushing afterwards.
- Support for write-streaming.
- Support for write grouping.
- Skip reads for which the server could only return zeros or EOF.
- The fscache module is now part of the netfs library and the
corresponding maintainer entry is updated.
- Some helpers from the fscache subsystem are renamed to mark them as
belonging to the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the 9p conversion"

There's a problem with dependencies between netfslib and fscache as each
wants to access some functions of the other. Deal with this by moving
fs/fscache/* into fs/netfs/ and renaming those files to begin with
"fscache-".
For the moment, the moved files are changed as little as possible and an
fscache module is still built. A subsequent patch will integrate them.

In preparation for factoring out some backing file io helpers from
overlayfs, move backing_file_open() into a new file fs/backing-file.c
and header.
Add a MAINTAINERS entry for stackable filesystems and add a Kconfig
FS_STACK which stackable filesystems need to select.
For now, the backing_file struct, the backing_file alloc/free functions
and the backing_file_real_path() accessor remain internal to file_table.c.
We may change that in the future.

Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and
select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it.
For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path
is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a
a small tweak to define the IOMAP_F_BUFFER_HEAD flag to 0 to not call
into the buffer_head code when it doesn't exist.
Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.

'obj-$(CONFIG_SYSCTL) += sysctls.o' must be moved after "obj-y :=",
or it won't be built as it is overwrited.
Note that there is nothing that is going to break by linking
sysctl.o later, we were just being way to cautious and patches
have been updated to reflect these considerations and sent for
stable as well with the whole "base" stuff needing to be linked
prior to child sysctl tables that use that directory. All of
the kernel sysctl APIs always share the same directory, and races
against using it should end up re-using the same single created
directory.
And so something we can do eventually is do away with all the base stuff.
For now it's fine, it's not creating an issue. It is just a bit pedantic
and careful.

into a separate file. This ensure that no code can poke around in struct
mnt_idmap without any dedicated helpers and makes it easier to extend it in the
future. Filesystems will now not be able to conflate mount and filesystem
idmappings as they are two distinct types and require distinct helpers that
cannot be used interchangeably. We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap

This moves the namespace sysctls to its own file as part of the
kernel/sysctl.c spring cleaning
Since we have now removed all sysctls for "fs", we now have to declare
it on the filesystem code, we do that using the new helper, which
reduces boiler plate code.
We rename init_fs_shared_sysctls() to init_fs_sysctls() to reflect that
now fs/sysctls.c is taking on the burden of being the first to register
the base directory as well.
Lastly, since init code will load in the order in which we link it we
have to move the sysctl code to be linked in early, so that its early
init routine runs prior to other fs code. This way, other filesystem
code can register their own sysctls using the helpers after this:
* register_sysctl_init()
* register_sysctl()

As we move to common code between client and server, we have
been asked to make the names less confusing, and refer less
to "cifs" and more to words which include "smb" instead to
e.g. "smbfs" for the client (we already have "ksmbd" for the
kernel server, and "smbd" for the user space Samba daemon).
So to be more consistent in the naming of common code between
client and server and reduce the risk of merge conflicts as
more common code is added - rename "cifs_common" to
"smbfs_common" (in future releases we also will rename
the fs/cifs directory to fs/smbfs)

Merge NTFSv3 filesystem from Konstantin Komarov:
"This patch adds NTFS Read-Write driver to fs/ntfs3.
Having decades of expertise in commercial file systems development and
huge test coverage, we at Paragon Software GmbH want to make our
contribution to the Open Source Community by providing implementation
of NTFS Read-Write driver for the Linux Kernel.
This is fully functional NTFS Read-Write driver. Current version works
with NTFS (including v3.1) and normal/compressed/sparse files and
supports journal replaying.
We plan to support this version after the codebase once merged, and
add new features and fix bugs. For example, full journaling support
over JBD will be added in later updates"

Pull initial ksmbd implementation from Steve French:
"Initial merge of kernel smb3 file server, ksmbd.
The SMB family of protocols is the most widely deployed network
filesystem protocol, the default on Windows and Macs (and even on many
phones and tablets), with clients and servers on all major operating
systems, but lacked a kernel server for Linux. For many cases the
current userspace server choices were suboptimal either due to memory
footprint, performance or difficulty integrating well with advanced
Linux features.
ksmbd is a new kernel module which implements the server-side of the
SMB3 protocol. The target is to provide optimized performance, GPLv2
SMB server, and better lease handling (distributed caching). The
bigger goal is to add new features more rapidly (e.g. RDMA aka
"smbdirect", and recent encryption and signing improvements to the
protocol) which are easier to develop on a smaller, more tightly
optimized kernel server than for example in Samba.
The Samba project is much broader in scope (tools, security services,
LDAP, Active Directory Domain Controller, and a cross platform file
server for a wider variety of purposes) but the user space file server
portion of Samba has proved hard to optimize for some Linux workloads,
including for smaller devices.
This is not meant to replace Samba, but rather be an extension to
allow better optimizing for Linux, and will continue to integrate well
with Samba user space tools and libraries where appropriate. Working
with the Samba team we have already made sure that the configuration
files and xattrs are in a compatible format between the kernel and
user space server.
Various types of functional and regression tests are regularly run
against it. One example is the automated 'buildbot' regression tests
which use the Linux client to test against ksmbd, e.g.
http://smb3-test-rhel-75.southcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com/#/builders/8/builds/56
but other test suites, including Samba's smbtorture functional test
suite are also used regularly"

We have a fairly specific alpha binary loader in Linux: running x86
(i386, i486) binaries via the em86 [1] emulator. As noted in the Kconfig
option, the same behavior can be achieved via binfmt_misc, for example,
more nowadays used for running qemu-user.
An example on how to get binfmt_misc running with em86 can be found in
Documentation/admin-guide/binfmt-misc.rst
The defconfig does not have CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86=y set. And doing a
make defconfig && make olddefconfig
results in
# CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86 is not set
... as we don't seem to have any supported Linux distirbution for alpha
anymore, there isn't really any "default" user of that feature anymore.
Searching for "CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86=y" reveals mostly discussions from
around 20 years ago, like [2] describing how to get netscape via em86
running via em86, or [3] discussing that running wine or installing
Win 3.11 through em86 would be a nice feature.
The latest binaries available for em86 are from 2000, version 2.2.1 [4] --
which translates to "unsupported"; further, em86 doesn't even work with
glibc-2.x but only with glibc-2.0 [4, 5]. These are clear signs that
there might not be too many em86 users out there, especially users
relying on modern Linux kernels.
Even though the code footprint is relatively small, let's just get rid
of this blast from the past that's effectively unused.

Add a pair of helper functions:
(*) netfs_readahead()
(*) netfs_readpage()
to do the work of handling a readahead or a readpage, where the page(s)
that form part of the request may be split between the local cache, the
server or just require clearing, and may be single pages and transparent
huge pages. This is all handled within the helper.
Note that while both will read from the cache if there is data present,
only netfs_readahead() will expand the request beyond what it was asked to
do, and only netfs_readahead() will write back to the cache.
netfs_readpage(), on the other hand, is synchronous and only fetches the
page (which might be a THP) it is asked for.
The netfs gives the helper parameters from the VM, the cache cookie it
wants to use (or NULL) and a table of operations (only one of which is
mandatory):
(*) expand_readahead() [optional]
Called to allow the netfs to request an expansion of a readahead
request to meet its own alignment requirements. This is done by
changing rreq->start and rreq->len.
(*) clamp_length() [optional]
Called to allow the netfs to cut down a subrequest to meet its own
boundary requirements. If it does this, the helper will generate
additional subrequests until the full request is satisfied.
(*) is_still_valid() [optional]
Called to find out if the data just read from the cache has been
invalidated and must be reread from the server.
(*) issue_op() [required]
Called to ask the netfs to issue a read to the server. The subrequest
describes the read. The read request holds information about the file
being accessed.
The netfs can cache information in rreq->netfs_priv.
Upon completion, the netfs should set the error, transferred and can
also set FSCACHE_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL and then call
fscache_subreq_terminated().
(*) done() [optional]
Called after the pages have been unlocked. The read request is still
pinning the file and mapping and may still be pinning pages with
PG_fscache. rreq->error indicates any error that has been
accumulated.
(*) cleanup() [optional]
Called when the helper is disposing of a finished read request. This
allows the netfs to clear rreq->netfs_priv.
Netfs support is enabled with CONFIG_NETFS_SUPPORT=y. It will be built
even if CONFIG_FSCACHE=n and in this case much of it should be optimised
away, allowing the filesystem to use it even when caching is disabled.
Changes:
v5:
- Comment why netfs_readahead() is putting pages[2].
- Use page_file_mapping() rather than page->mapping[2].
- Use page_index() rather than page->index[2].
- Use set_page_fscache()[3] rather then SetPageFsCache() as this takes an
appropriate ref too[4].
v4:
- Folded in a kerneldoc comment fix.
- Folded in a fix for the error handling in the case that ENOMEM occurs.
- Added flag to netfs_subreq_terminated() to indicate that the caller may
have been running async and stuff that might sleep needs punting to a
workqueue (can't use in_softirq()[1]).

Pull new zonefs file system from Damien Le Moal:
"Zonefs is a very simple file system exposing each zone of a zoned
block device as a file.
Unlike a regular file system with native zoned block device support
(e.g. f2fs or the on-going btrfs effort), zonefs does not hide the
sequential write constraint of zoned block devices to the user. As a
result, zonefs is not a POSIX compliant file system. Its goal is to

One example of this approach is the implementation of LSM

LevelDB) on zoned block devices by allowing SSTables to be stored in a
zone file similarly to a regular file system rather than as a range of
sectors of a zoned device. The introduction of the higher level
construct "one file is one zone" can help reducing the amount of
changes needed in the application while at the same time allowing the
use of zoned block devices with various programming languages other

zonefs is a very simple file system exposing each zone of a zoned block
device as a file. Unlike a regular file system with zoned block device
support (e.g. f2fs), zonefs does not hide the sequential write
constraint of zoned block devices to the user. Files representing
sequential write zones of the device must be written sequentially
starting from the end of the file (append only writes).
As such, zonefs is in essence closer to a raw block device access
interface than to a full featured POSIX file system. The goal of zonefs
is to simplify the implementation of zoned block device support in
applications by replacing raw block device file accesses with a richer
file API, avoiding relying on direct block device file ioctls which may
be more obscure to developers. One example of this approach is the
implementation of LSM (log-structured merge) tree structures (such as
used in RocksDB and LevelDB) on zoned block devices by allowing SSTables
to be stored in a zone file similarly to a regular file system rather
than as a range of sectors of a zoned device. The introduction of the
higher level construct "one file is one zone" can help reducing the
amount of changes needed in the application as well as introducing
support for different application programming languages.
Zonefs on-disk metadata is reduced to an immutable super block to
persistently store a magic number and optional feature flags and
values. On mount, zonefs uses blkdev_report_zones() to obtain the device
zone configuration and populates the mount point with a static file tree
solely based on this information. E.g. file sizes come from the device
zone type and write pointer offset managed by the device itself.
The zone files created on mount have the following characteristics.
1) Files representing zones of the same type are grouped together
under a common sub-directory:
* For conventional zones, the sub-directory "cnv" is used.
* For sequential write zones, the sub-directory "seq" is used.
These two directories are the only directories that exist in zonefs.
Users cannot create other directories and cannot rename nor delete
the "cnv" and "seq" sub-directories.
2) The name of zone files is the number of the file within the zone
type sub-directory, in order of increasing zone start sector.
3) The size of conventional zone files is fixed to the device zone size.
Conventional zone files cannot be truncated.
4) The size of sequential zone files represent the file's zone write
pointer position relative to the zone start sector. Truncating these
files is allowed only down to 0, in which case, the zone is reset to
rewind the zone write pointer position to the start of the zone, or
up to the zone size, in which case the file's zone is transitioned
to the FULL state (finish zone operation).
5) All read and write operations to files are not allowed beyond the
file zone size. Any access exceeding the zone size is failed with
the -EFBIG error.
6) Creating, deleting, renaming or modifying any attribute of files and
sub-directories is not allowed.
7) There are no restrictions on the type of read and write operations
that can be issued to conventional zone files. Buffered, direct and
mmap read & write operations are accepted. For sequential zone files,
there are no restrictions on read operations, but all write
operations must be direct IO append writes. mmap write of sequential
files is not allowed.
Several optional features of zonefs can be enabled at format time.
* Conventional zone aggregation: ranges of contiguous conventional
zones can be aggregated into a single larger file instead of the
default one file per zone.
* File ownership: The owner UID and GID of zone files is by default 0
(root) but can be changed to any valid UID/GID.
* File access permissions: the default 640 access permissions can be
changed.
The mkzonefs tool is used to format zoned block devices for use with
zonefs. This tool is available on Github at:
git@github.com:damien-lemoal/zonefs-tools.git.
zonefs-tools also includes a test suite which can be run against any
zoned block device, including null_blk block device created with zoned
mode.
Example: the following formats a 15TB host-managed SMR HDD with 256 MB
zones with the conventional zones aggregation feature enabled.
$ sudo mkzonefs -o aggr_cnv /dev/sdX
$ sudo mount -t zonefs /dev/sdX /mnt
$ ls -l /mnt/
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 1 Nov 25 13:23 cnv
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 55356 Nov 25 13:23 seq
The size of the zone files sub-directories indicate the number of files
existing for each type of zones. In this example, there is only one
conventional zone file (all conventional zones are aggregated under a
single file).
$ ls -l /mnt/cnv
total 137101312
-rw-r----- 1 root root 140391743488 Nov 25 13:23 0
This aggregated conventional zone file can be used as a regular file.
$ sudo mkfs.ext4 /mnt/cnv/0
$ sudo mount -o loop /mnt/cnv/0 /data
The "seq" sub-directory grouping files for sequential write zones has
in this example 55356 zones.
$ ls -lv /mnt/seq
total 14511243264
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Nov 25 13:23 0
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Nov 25 13:23 1
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Nov 25 13:23 2
...
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Nov 25 13:23 55354
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Nov 25 13:23 55355
For sequential write zone files, the file size changes as data is
appended at the end of the file, similarly to any regular file system.
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/seq/0 bs=4K count=1 conv=notrunc oflag=direct
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
4096 bytes (4.1 kB, 4.0 KiB) copied, 0.000452219 s, 9.1 MB/s
$ ls -l /mnt/seq/0
-rw-r----- 1 root root 4096 Nov 25 13:23 /mnt/seq/0
The written file can be truncated to the zone size, preventing any
further write operation.
$ truncate -s 268435456 /mnt/seq/0
$ ls -l /mnt/seq/0
-rw-r----- 1 root root 268435456 Nov 25 13:49 /mnt/seq/0
Truncation to 0 size allows freeing the file zone storage space and
restart append-writes to the file.
$ truncate -s 0 /mnt/seq/0
$ ls -l /mnt/seq/0
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Nov 25 13:49 /mnt/seq/0
Since files are statically mapped to zones on the disk, the number of
blocks of a file as reported by stat() and fstat() indicates the size
of the file zone.
$ stat /mnt/seq/0
File: /mnt/seq/0
Size: 0 Blocks: 524288 IO Block: 4096 regular empty file
Device: 870h/2160d Inode: 50431 Links: 1
Access: (0640/-rw-r-----) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root)
Access: 2019-11-25 13:23:57.048971997 +0900
Modify: 2019-11-25 13:52:25.553805765 +0900

Birth: -
The number of blocks of the file ("Blocks") in units of 512B blocks
gives the maximum file size of 524288 * 512 B = 256 MB, corresponding
to the device zone size in this example. Of note is that the "IO block"
field always indicates the minimum IO size for writes and corresponds
to the device physical sector size.

The rest of the fs/compat_ioctl.c file is no longer useful now,
so move the actual syscall as planned.

This adds support for io-wq, a smaller and specialized thread pool
implementation. This is meant to replace workqueues for io_uring. Among
the reasons for this addition are:
- We can assign memory context smarter and more persistently if we
manage the life time of threads.
- We can drop various work-arounds we have in io_uring, like the
async_list.
- We can implement hashed work insertion, to manage concurrency of
buffered writes without needing a) an extra workqueue, or b)
needlessly making the concurrency of said workqueue very low
which hurts performance of multiple buffered file writers.
- We can implement cancel through signals, for cancelling
interruptible work like read/write (or send/recv) to/from sockets.
- We need the above cancel for being able to assign and use file tables
from a process.
- We can implement a more thorough cancel operation in general.
- We need it to move towards a syslet/threadlet model for even faster
async execution. For that we need to take ownership of the used
threads.
This list is just off the top of my head. Performance should be the
same, or better, at least that's what I've seen in my testing. io-wq
supports basic NUMA functionality, setting up a pool per node.
io-wq hooks up to the scheduler schedule in/out just like workqueue
and uses that to drive the need for more/less workers.
