fs: Clarify FS_CASEFOLD_FL semantics in UAPI header
The existing one-liner "Folder is case insensitive" leaves the impression that FS_CASEFOLD_FL is reserved for directories. That impression is wrong: filesystems that derive case-insensitivity from mount or volume state report the bit on non-directory inodes via i_op->fileattr_get, so userspace inspecting FS_IOC_GETFLAGS can see it on any inode type. Replace the one-liner with a block comment that names directories as the typical case, records that non-directory inodes may also report the bit, and notes FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD as the read-only companion exposed through FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR.

fs: Add case sensitivity flags to file_kattr
Enable upper layers such as NFSD to retrieve case sensitivity information from file systems by adding FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD and FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING flags. Filesystems report case-insensitive or case-nonpreserving behavior by setting these flags directly in fa->fsx_xflags. The default (flags unset) indicates POSIX semantics: case-sensitive and case-preserving. Both flags are added to FS_XFLAG_RDONLY_MASK so FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR silently strips them, keeping the new xflags strictly a reporting interface. Callers that want to toggle casefolding continue to use FS_IOC_SETFLAGS with FS_CASEFOLD_FL, the established UAPI on filesystems that support the operation (ext4 and f2fs on empty directories). Case sensitivity information is exported to userspace via the fa_xflags field in the FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR ioctl and file_getattr() system call. Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

fs: add generic FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN definitions
Currently, several filesystems (e.g., xfs, ext4, btrfs) implement a "shutdown" or "going down" ioctl to simulate filesystem force a shutdown. While they often use the same underlying numeric value, the definition is duplicated across filesystem headers or private definitions. Add generic definitions for FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN in uapi/linux/fs.h. This allows new filesystems (like ntfs) to implement this feature using a standard VFS definition and paves the way for existing filesystems to unify their definitions later. The flag names are standardized as FS_SHUTDOWN_* to be consistent with the ioctl name, replacing the historical GOING_DOWN naming convention. Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

fs: add FS_XFLAG_VERITY for fs-verity files
fs-verity introduced inode flag for inodes with enabled fs-verity on them. This patch adds FS_XFLAG_VERITY file attribute which can be retrieved with FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR ioctl() and file_getattr() syscall. This flag is read-only and can not be set with corresponding set ioctl() and file_setattr(). The FS_IOC_SETFLAGS requires file to be opened for writing which is not allowed for verity files. The FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR and file_setattr() clears this flag from the user input. As this is now common flag for both flag interfaces (flags/xflags) add it to overlapping flags list to exclude it from overwrite.

block: introduce BLKREPORTZONESV2 ioctl
Introduce the new BLKREPORTZONESV2 ioctl command to allow user applications access to the fast zone report implemented by blkdev_report_zones_cached(). This new ioctl is defined as number 142 and is documented in include/uapi/linux/fs.h. Unlike the existing BLKREPORTZONES ioctl, this new ioctl uses the flags field of struct blk_zone_report also as an input. If the user sets the BLK_ZONE_REP_CACHED flag as an input, then blkdev_report_zones_cached() is used to generate the zone report using cached zone information. If this flag is not set, then BLKREPORTZONESV2 behaves in the same manner as BLKREPORTZONES and the zone report is generated by accessing the zoned device.

Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2
For a user mode library to avoid generating SIGPIPE signals (e.g. because this behaviour is not portable across operating systems) is cumbersome. It is generally bad form to change the process-wide signal mask in a library, so a local solution is needed instead. For I/O performed directly using system calls (synchronous or readiness based asynchronous) this currently involves applying a thread-specific signal mask before the operation and reverting it afterwards. This can be avoided when it is known that the file descriptor refers to neither a pipe nor a socket, but a conservative implementation must always apply the mask. This incurs the cost of two additional system calls. In the case of sockets, the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag can be used with send. For asynchronous I/O performed using io_uring, currently the only option (apart from MSG_NOSIGNAL for sockets), is to mask SIGPIPE entirely in the call to io_uring_enter. Thankfully io_uring_enter takes a signal mask, so only a single syscall is needed. However, copying the signal mask on every call incurs a non-zero performance penalty. Furthermore, this mask applies to all completions, meaning that if the non-signaling behaviour is desired only for some subset of operations, the desired signals must be raised manually from user-mode depending on the completed operation. 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.

Pull fileattr updates from Christian Brauner: "This introduces the new file_getattr() and file_setattr() system calls after lengthy discussions. Both system calls serve as successors and extensible companions to the FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR system calls which have started to show their age in addition to being named in a way that makes it easy to conflate them with extended attribute related operations. These syscalls allow userspace to set filesystem inode attributes on special files. One of the usage examples is the XFS quota projects. XFS has project quotas which could be attached to a directory. All new inodes in these directories inherit project ID set on parent directory. The project is created from userspace by opening and calling FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR on each inode. This is not possible for special files such as FIFO, SOCK, BLK etc. Therefore, some inodes are left with empty project ID. Those inodes then are not shown in the quota accounting but still exist in the directory. This is not critical but in the case when special files are created in the directory with already existing project quota, these new inodes inherit extended attributes. This creates a mix of special files with and without attributes. Moreover, special files with attributes don't have a possibility to become clear or change the attributes. This, in turn, prevents userspace from re-creating quota project on these existing files. In addition, these new system calls allow the implementation of additional attributes that we couldn't or didn't want to fit into the legacy ioctls anymore" * tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.fileattr' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: tighten a sanity check in file_attr_to_fileattr() tree-wide: s/struct fileattr/struct file_kattr/g fs: introduce file_getattr and file_setattr syscalls fs: prepare for extending file_get/setattr() fs: make vfs_fileattr_[get|set] return -EOPNOTSUPP selinux: implement inode_file_[g|s]etattr hooks lsm: introduce new hooks for setting/getting inode fsxattr fs: split fileattr related helpers into separate file |

uapi: export PROCFS_ROOT_INO
The root inode of /proc having a fixed inode number has been part of the
core kernel ABI since its inception, and recently some userspace
programs (mainly container runtimes) have started to explicitly depend
on this behaviour.
The main reason this is useful to userspace is that by checking that a
suspect /proc handle has fstype PROC_SUPER_MAGIC and is PROCFS_ROOT_INO,
they can then use openat2(RESOLVE_{NO_{XDEV,MAGICLINK},BENEATH}) to
ensure that there isn't a bind-mount that replaces some procfs file with
a different one. This kind of attack has lead to security issues in
container runtimes in the past (such as CVE-2019-19921) and libraries
like libpathrs[1] use this feature of procfs to provide safe procfs
handling functions.
There was also some trailing whitespace in the "struct proc_dir_entry"
initialiser, so fix that up as well.

fs: introduce file_getattr and file_setattr syscalls
Introduce file_getattr() and file_setattr() syscalls to manipulate inode extended attributes. The syscalls takes pair of file descriptor and pathname. Then it operates on inode opened accroding to openat() semantics. The struct file_attr is passed to obtain/change extended attributes. This is an alternative to FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl with a difference that file don't need to be open as we can reference it with a path instead of fd. By having this we can manipulated inode extended attributes not only on regular files but also on special ones. This is not possible with FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl as with special files we can not call ioctl() directly on the filesystem inode using fd. This patch adds two new syscalls which allows userspace to get/set extended inode attributes on special files by using parent directory and a path - *at() like syscall.

blk-crypto: add ioctls to create and prepare hardware-wrapped keys
Until this point, the kernel can use hardware-wrapped keys to do encryption if userspace provides one -- specifically a key in ephemerally-wrapped form. However, no generic way has been provided for userspace to get such a key in the first place. Getting such a key is a two-step process. First, the key needs to be imported from a raw key or generated by the hardware, producing a key in long-term wrapped form. This happens once in the whole lifetime of the key. Second, the long-term wrapped key needs to be converted into ephemerally-wrapped form. This happens each time the key is "unlocked". In Android, these operations are supported in a generic way through KeyMint, a userspace abstraction layer. However, that method is Android-specific and can't be used on other Linux systems, may rely on proprietary libraries, and also misleads people into supporting KeyMint features like rollback resistance that make sense for other KeyMint keys but don't make sense for hardware-wrapped inline encryption keys. Therefore, this patch provides a generic kernel interface for these operations by introducing new block device ioctls: - BLKCRYPTOIMPORTKEY: convert a raw key to long-term wrapped form. - BLKCRYPTOGENERATEKEY: have the hardware generate a new key, then return it in long-term wrapped form. - BLKCRYPTOPREPAREKEY: convert a key from long-term wrapped form to ephemerally-wrapped form. These ioctls are implemented using new operations in blk_crypto_ll_ops.

fs/procfs: add build ID fetching to PROCMAP_QUERY API
The need to get ELF build ID reliably is an important aspect when dealing with profiling and stack trace symbolization, and /proc/<pid>/maps textual representation doesn't help with this. To get backing file's ELF build ID, application has to first resolve VMA, then use it's start/end address range to follow a special /proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink to open the ELF file (this is necessary because backing file might have been removed from the disk or was already replaced with another binary in the same file path. Such approach, beyond just adding complexity of having to do a bunch of extra work, has extra security implications. Because application opens underlying ELF file and needs read access to its entire contents (as far as kernel is concerned), kernel puts additional capable() checks on following /proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink. And that makes sense in general. But in the case of build ID, profiler/symbolizer doesn't need the contents of ELF file, per se. It's only build ID that is of interest, and ELF build ID itself doesn't provide any sensitive information. So this patch adds a way to request backing file's ELF build ID along the rest of VMA information in the same API. User has control over whether this piece of information is requested or not by either setting build_id_size field to zero or non-zero maximum buffer size they provided through build_id_addr field (which encodes user pointer as __u64 field). This is a completely optional piece of information, and so has no performance implications for user cases that don't care about build ID, while improving performance and simplifying the setup for those application that do need it. Kernel already implements build ID fetching, which is used from BPF subsystem. We are reusing this code here, but plan a follow up changes to make it work better under more relaxed assumption (compared to what existing code assumes) of being called from user process context, in which page faults are allowed. BPF-specific implementation currently bails out if necessary part of ELF file is not paged in, all due to extra BPF-specific restrictions (like the need to fetch build ID in restrictive contexts such as NMI handler).

fs/procfs: implement efficient VMA querying API for /proc/<pid>/maps
/proc/<pid>/maps file is extremely useful in practice for various tasks involving figuring out process memory layout, what files are backing any given memory range, etc. One important class of applications that absolutely rely on this are profilers/stack symbolizers (perf tool being one of them). Patterns of use differ, but they generally would fall into two categories. In on-demand pattern, a profiler/symbolizer would normally capture stack trace containing absolute memory addresses of some functions, and would then use /proc/<pid>/maps file to find corresponding backing ELF files (normally, only executable VMAs are of interest), file offsets within them, and then continue from there to get yet more information (ELF symbols, DWARF information) to get human-readable symbolic information. This pattern is used by Meta's fleet-wide profiler, as one example. In preprocessing pattern, application doesn't know the set of addresses of interest, so it has to fetch all relevant VMAs (again, probably only executable ones), store or cache them, then proceed with profiling and stack trace capture. Once done, it would do symbolization based on stored VMA information. This can happen at much later point in time. This patterns is used by perf tool, as an example. In either case, there are both performance and correctness requirement involved. This address to VMA information translation has to be done as efficiently as possible, but also not miss any VMA (especially in the case of loading/unloading shared libraries). In practice, correctness can't be guaranteed (due to process dying before VMA data can be captured, or shared library being unloaded, etc), but any effort to maximize the chance of finding the VMA is appreciated. Unfortunately, for all the /proc/<pid>/maps file universality and usefulness, it doesn't fit the above use cases 100%. First, it's main purpose is to emit all VMAs sequentially, but in practice captured addresses would fall only into a smaller subset of all process' VMAs, mainly containing executable text. Yet, library would need to parse most or all of the contents to find needed VMAs, as there is no way to skip VMAs that are of no use. Efficient library can do the linear pass and it is still relatively efficient, but it's definitely an overhead that can be avoided, if there was a way to do more targeted querying of the relevant VMA information. Second, it's a text based interface, which makes its programmatic use from applications and libraries more cumbersome and inefficient due to the need to handle text parsing to get necessary pieces of information. The overhead is actually payed both by kernel, formatting originally binary VMA data into text, and then by user space application, parsing it back into binary data for further use. For the on-demand pattern of usage, described above, another problem when writing generic stack trace symbolization library is an unfortunate performance-vs-correctness tradeoff that needs to be made. Library has to make a decision to either cache parsed contents of /proc/<pid>/maps (after initial processing) to service future requests (if application requests to symbolize another set of addresses (for the same process), captured at some later time, which is typical for periodic/continuous profiling cases) to avoid higher costs of re-parsing this file. Or it has to choose to cache the contents in memory to speed up future requests. In the former case, more memory is used for the cache and there is a risk of getting stale data if application loads or unloads shared libraries, or otherwise changed its set of VMAs somehow, e.g., through additional mmap() calls. In the latter case, it's the performance hit that comes from re-opening the file and re-parsing its contents all over again. This patch aims to solve this problem by providing a new API built on top of /proc/<pid>/maps. It's meant to address both non-selectiveness and text nature of /proc/<pid>/maps, by giving user more control of what sort of VMA(s) needs to be queried, and being binary-based interface eliminates the overhead of text formatting (on kernel side) and parsing (on user space side). It's also designed to be extensible and forward/backward compatible by including required struct size field, which user has to provide. We use established copy_struct_from_user() approach to handle extensibility. User has a choice to pick either getting VMA that covers provided address or -ENOENT if none is found (exact, least surprising, case). Or, with an extra query flag (PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA), they can get either VMA that covers the address (if there is one), or the closest next VMA (i.e., VMA with the smallest vm_start > addr). The latter allows more efficient use, but, given it could be a surprising behavior, requires an explicit opt-in. There is another query flag that is useful for some use cases. PROCMAP_QUERY_FILE_BACKED_VMA instructs this API to only return file-backed VMAs. Combining this with PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA makes it possible to efficiently iterate only file-backed VMAs of the process, which is what profilers/symbolizers are normally interested in. All the above querying flags can be combined with (also optional) set of desired VMA permissions flags. This allows to, for example, iterate only an executable subset of VMAs, which is what preprocessing pattern, used by perf tool, would benefit from, as the assumption is that captured stack traces would have addresses of executable code. This saves time by skipping non-executable VMAs altogether efficienty. All these querying flags (modifiers) are orthogonal and can be combined in a semantically meaningful and natural way. Basing this ioctl()-based API on top of /proc/<pid>/maps's FD makes sense given it's querying the same set of VMA data. It's also benefitial because permission checks for /proc/<pid>/maps is performed at open time once, and the actual data read of text contents of /proc/<pid>/maps is done without further permission checks. We piggyback on this pattern with ioctl()-based API as well, as that's a desired property. Both for performance reasons, but also for security and flexibility reasons. Allowing application to open an FD for /proc/self/maps without any extra capabilities, and then passing it to some sort of profiling agent through Unix-domain socket, would allow such profiling agent to not require some of the capabilities that are otherwise expected when opening /proc/<pid>/maps file for *another* process. This is a desirable property for some more restricted setups. This new ioctl-based implementation doesn't interfere with seq_file-based implementation of /proc/<pid>/maps textual interface, and so could be used together or independently without paying any price for that. Note also, that fetching VMA name (e.g., backing file path, or special hard-coded or user-provided names) is optional just like build ID. If user sets vma_name_size to zero, kernel code won't attempt to retrieve it, saving resources. Earlier versions of this patch set were adding per-VMA locking, which is why we have a code structure that is ready for abstracting mmap_lock vs vm_lock differences (query_vma_setup(), query_vma_teardown(), and query_vma_find_by_addr()), but given anon_vma_name() is not yet compatible with per-VMA locking, initial implementation sticks to using only mmap_lock for now. It will be easy to add back per-VMA locking once all the pieces are ready later on. Which is why we keep existing code structure with setup/teardown/query helper functions.

fs: Initial atomic write support
An atomic write is a write issued with torn-write protection, meaning that for a power failure or any other hardware failure, all or none of the data from the write will be stored, but never a mix of old and new data. Userspace may add flag RWF_ATOMIC to pwritev2() to indicate that the write is to be issued with torn-write prevention, according to special alignment and length rules. For any syscall interface utilizing struct iocb, add IOCB_ATOMIC for iocb->ki_flags field to indicate the same. A call to statx will give the relevant atomic write info for a file: - atomic_write_unit_min - atomic_write_unit_max - atomic_write_segments_max Both min and max values must be a power-of-2. Applications can avail of atomic write feature by ensuring that the total length of a write is a power-of-2 in size and also sized between atomic_write_unit_min and atomic_write_unit_max, inclusive. Applications must ensure that the write is at a naturally-aligned offset in the file wrt the total write length. The value in atomic_write_segments_max indicates the upper limit for IOV_ITER iovcnt. Add file mode flag FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE, so files which do not have the flag set will have RWF_ATOMIC rejected and not just ignored. Add a type argument to kiocb_set_rw_flags() to allows reads which have RWF_ATOMIC set to be rejected. Helper function generic_atomic_write_valid() can be used by FSes to verify compliant writes. There we check for iov_iter type is for ubuf, which implies iovcnt==1 for pwritev2(), which is an initial restriction for atomic_write_segments_max. Initially the only user will be bdev file operations write handler. We will rely on the block BIO submission path to ensure write sizes are compliant for the bdev, so we don't need to check atomic writes sizes yet.
