Pull ntfs resurrection from Namjae Jeon:
 "Ever since Kari Argillander’s 2022 report [1] regarding the state of
  the ntfs3 driver, I have spent the last 4 years working to provide
  full write support and current trends (iomap, no buffer head, folio),
  enhanced performance, stable maintenance, utility support including
  fsck for NTFS in Linux.

  This new implementation is built upon the clean foundation of the
  original read-only NTFS driver, adding:

   - Write support:

     Implemented full write support based on the classic read-only NTFS
     driver. Added delayed allocation to improve write performance
     through multi-cluster allocation and reduced fragmentation of the
     cluster bitmap.

   - iomap conversion:

     Switched buffered IO (reads/writes), direct IO, file extent
     mapping, readpages, and writepages to use iomap.

   - Remove buffer_head:

     Completely removed buffer_head usage by converting to folios. As a
     result, the dependency on CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD has been removed from
     Kconfig.

   - Stability improvements:

     The new ntfs driver passes 326 xfstests, compared to 273 for ntfs3.
     All tests passed by ntfs3 are a complete subset of the tests passed
     by this implementation. Added support for fallocate, idmapped
     mounts, permissions, and more.

  xfstests Results report:

     Total tests run: 787
     Passed         : 326
     Failed         : 38
     Skipped        : 423

  Failed tests breakdown:
    - 34 tests require metadata journaling
    - 4 other tests:
         094: No unwritten extent concept in NTFS on-disk format
         563: cgroup v2 aware writeback accounting not supported
         631: RENAME_WHITEOUT support required
         787: NFS delegation test"

Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)andAndrew Morton 0c2aa66357 mm: reintroduce vma_desc_test() as a singular flag test
Similar to vma_flags_test(), we have previously renamed vma_desc_test() to
vma_desc_test_any().  Now that is in place, we can reintroduce
vma_desc_test() to explicitly check for a single VMA flag.

As with vma_flags_test(), this is useful as often flag tests are against a
single flag, and vma_desc_test_any(flags, VMA_READ_BIT) reads oddly and
potentially causes confusion.

As with vma_flags_test() a combination of sparse and vma_flags_t being a
struct means that users cannot misuse this function without it getting
flagged.

Also update the VMA tests to reflect this change.

Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)andAndrew Morton e650bb30ca mm: rename VMA flag helpers to be more readable
Patch series "mm: vma flag tweaks".

The ongoing work around introducing non-system word VMA flags has
introduced a number of helper functions and macros to make life easier
when working with these flags and to make conversions from the legacy use
of VM_xxx flags more straightforward.

This series improves these to reduce confusion as to what they do and to
improve consistency and readability.

Firstly the series renames vma_flags_test() to vma_flags_test_any() to
make it abundantly clear that this function tests whether any of the flags
are set (as opposed to vma_flags_test_all()).

It then renames vma_desc_test_flags() to vma_desc_test_any() for the same
reason.  Note that we drop the 'flags' suffix here, as
vma_desc_test_any_flags() would be cumbersome and 'test' implies a flag
test.

Similarly, we rename vma_test_all_flags() to vma_test_all() for
consistency.

Next, we have a couple of instances (erofs, zonefs) where we are now
testing for vma_desc_test_any(desc, VMA_SHARED_BIT) &&
vma_desc_test_any(desc, VMA_MAYWRITE_BIT).

This is silly, so this series introduces vma_desc_test_all() so these
callers can instead invoke vma_desc_test_all(desc, VMA_SHARED_BIT,
VMA_MAYWRITE_BIT).

We then observe that quite a few instances of vma_flags_test_any() and
vma_desc_test_any() are in fact only testing against a single flag.

Using the _any() variant here is just confusing - 'any' of single item
reads strangely and is liable to cause confusion.

So in these instances the series reintroduces vma_flags_test() and
vma_desc_test() as helpers which test against a single flag.

The fact that vma_flags_t is a struct and that vma_flag_t utilises sparse
to avoid confusion with vm_flags_t makes it impossible for a user to
misuse these helpers without it getting flagged somewhere.

The series also updates __mk_vma_flags() and functions invoked by it to
explicitly mark them always inline to match expectation and to be
consistent with other VMA flag helpers.

It also renames vma_flag_set() to vma_flags_set_flag() (a function only
used by __mk_vma_flags()) to be consistent with other VMA flag helpers.

Finally it updates the VMA tests for each of these changes, and introduces
explicit tests for vma_flags_test() and vma_desc_test() to assert that
they behave as expected.


This patch (of 6):

On reflection, it's confusing to have vma_flags_test() and
vma_desc_test_flags() test whether any comma-separated VMA flag bit is
set, while also having vma_flags_test_all() and vma_test_all_flags()
separately test whether all flags are set.

Firstly, rename vma_flags_test() to vma_flags_test_any() to eliminate this
confusion.

Secondly, since the VMA descriptor flag functions are becoming rather
cumbersome, prefer vma_desc_test*() to vma_desc_test_flags*(), and also
rename vma_desc_test_flags() to vma_desc_test_any().

Finally, rename vma_test_all_flags() to vma_test_all() to keep the
VMA-specific helper consistent with the VMA descriptor naming convention
and to help avoid confusion vs.  vma_flags_test_all().

While we're here, also update whitespace to be consistent in helper
functions.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
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 *".

Konstantin Komarov 10d7c95af0 fs/ntfs3: add delayed-allocation (delalloc) support
This patch implements delayed allocation (delalloc) in ntfs3 driver.

It introduces an in-memory delayed-runlist (run_da) and the helpers to
track, reserve and later convert those delayed reservations into real
clusters at writeback time. The change keeps on-disk formats untouched and
focuses on pagecache integration, correctness and safe interaction with
fallocate, truncate, and dio/iomap paths.

Key points:

- add run_da (delay-allocated run tree) and bookkeeping for delayed clusters.

- mark ranges as delalloc (DELALLOC_LCN) instead of immediately allocating.
  Actual allocation performed later (writeback / attr_set_size_ex / explicit
  flush paths).

- direct i/o / iomap paths updated to avoid dio collisions with
  delalloc: dio falls back or forces allocation of delayed blocks before
  proceeding.

- punch/collapse/truncate/fallocate check and cancel delay-alloc reservations.
  Sparse/compressed files handled specially.

- free-space checks updated (ntfs_check_free_space) to account for reserved
  delalloc clusters and MFT record budgeting.

- delayed allocations are committed on last writer (file release) and on
  explicit allocation flush paths.

Lorenzo StoakesandAndrew Morton 5bd2c0650a mm: update all remaining mmap_prepare users to use vma_flags_t
We will be shortly removing the vm_flags_t field from vm_area_desc so we
need to update all mmap_prepare users to only use the dessc->vma_flags
field.

This patch achieves that and makes all ancillary changes required to make
this possible.

This lays the groundwork for future work to eliminate the use of
vm_flags_t in vm_area_desc altogether and more broadly throughout the
kernel.

While we're here, we take the opportunity to replace VM_REMAP_FLAGS with
VMA_REMAP_FLAGS, the vma_flags_t equivalent.

No functional changes intended.

Edward Adam DavisandKonstantin Komarov 27b75ca4e5 fs/ntfs3: prevent infinite loops caused by the next valid being the same
When processing valid within the range [valid : pos), if valid cannot
be retrieved correctly, for example, if the retrieved valid value is
always the same, this can trigger a potential infinite loop, similar
to the hung problem reported by syzbot [1].

Adding a check for the valid value within the loop body, and terminating
the loop and returning -EINVAL if the value is the same as the current
value, can prevent this.

Konstantin Komarov 099ef9ab92 fs/ntfs3: implement iomap-based file operations
This patch modifies the ntfs3 driver by replacing the buffer_head-based
operations with the iomap ones.

Implementation details:
- Implements core iomap operations (ntfs_iomap_begin/end) for block mapping:
    Proper handling of resident attributes via IOMAP_INLINE.
    Support for sparse files through IOMAP_HOLE semantics.
    Correct unwritten extent handling for zeroing operations.
- Replaces custom implementations with standardized iomap helpers:
    Converts buffered reads to use iomap_read_folio and iomap_readahead.
    Implements iomap_file_buffered_write for write operations.
    Uses iomap_dio_rw for direct I/O paths.
    Migrates zero range operations to iomap_zero_range.
- Preserves special handling paths for compressed files
- Implements proper EOF/valid data size management during writes

Konstantin Komarov f35590ee26 fs/ntfs3: remove ntfs_bio_pages and use page cache for compressed I/O
Replace the use of ntfs_bio_pages with the disk page cache for reading and
writing compressed files. This slightly improves performance when reading
compressed data and simplifies the I/O logic.

When an XPRESS or LZX compressed file is opened for writing, it is now
decompressed into a normal file before modification. A new argument (`int copy`)
is added to ni_read_frame() to handle writing of decompressed and mapped data.

Konstantin Komarov 1ff28f36eb fs/ntfs3: disable readahead for compressed files
Reading large compressed files is extremely slow when readahead is enabled.
For example, reading a 4 GB XPRESS-4K compressed file (compression ratio
≈ 4:1) takes about 230 minutes with readahead enabled, but only around 3
minutes when readahead is disabled.

The issue was first observed in January 2025 and is reproducible with large
compressed NTFS files. Disabling readahead for compressed files avoids this
performance regression, although this may not be the ideal long-term fix.
