David Hildenbrand 6208721f13 binfmt: remove support for em86 (alpha only)
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.

David Howells 3d3c950467 netfs: Provide readahead and readpage netfs helpers
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]).

Darrick J. Wong 02e83f46eb vfs: move generic_remap_checks out of mm
I would like to move all the generic helpers for the vfs remap range
functionality (aka clonerange and dedupe) into a separate file so that
they won't be scattered across the vfs and the mm subsystems.  The
eventual goal is to be able to deselect remap_range.c if none of the
filesystems need that code, but the tricky part here is picking a
stable(ish) part of the merge window to rearrange code.

Pull new zonefs file system from Damien Le Moal:
 "Zonefs is a very simple file system exposing each zone of a zoned

Damien Le Moal 8dcc1a9d90 fs: New zonefs file system
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

 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.

Jens Axboe 771b53d033 io-wq: small threadpool implementation for io_uring
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.

Linus Torvalds f60c55a94e Merge tag 'fsverity-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/fscrypt
Pull fs-verity support from Eric Biggers:
 "fs-verity is a filesystem feature that provides Merkle tree based
  hashing (similar to dm-verity) for individual readonly files, mainly
  for the purpose of efficient authenticity verification.

  This pull request includes:

   (a) The fs/verity/ support layer and documentation.

   (b) fs-verity support for ext4 and f2fs.

  Compared to the original fs-verity patchset from last year, the UAPI
  to enable fs-verity on a file has been greatly simplified. Lots of
  other things were cleaned up too.

  fs-verity is planned to be used by two different projects on Android;
  most of the userspace code is in place already. Another userspace tool
  ("fsverity-utils"), and xfstests, are also available. e2fsprogs and
  f2fs-tools already have fs-verity support. Other people have shown
  interest in using fs-verity too.

  I've tested this on ext4 and f2fs with xfstests, both the existing
  tests and the new fs-verity tests. This has also been in linux-next
  since July 30 with no reported issues except a couple minor ones I
  found myself and folded in fixes for.

  Ted and I will be co-maintaining fs-verity"

Gao Xiang 47e4937a4a erofs: move erofs out of staging
EROFS filesystem has been merged into linux-staging for a year.

EROFS is designed to be a better solution of saving extra storage
space with guaranteed end-to-end performance for read-only files
with the help of reduced metadata, fixed-sized output compression
and decompression inplace technologies.

In the past year, EROFS was greatly improved by many people as
a staging driver, self-tested, betaed by a large number of our
internal users, successfully applied to almost all in-service
HUAWEI smartphones as the part of EMUI 9.1 and proven to be stable
enough to be moved out of staging.

EROFS is a self-contained filesystem driver. Although there are
still some TODOs to be more generic, we have a dedicated team
actively keeping on working on EROFS in order to make it better
with the evolution of Linux kernel as the other in-kernel filesystems.

As Pavel suggested, it's better to do as one commit since git
can do moves and all histories will be saved in this way.

Let's promote it from staging and enhance it more actively as
a "real" part of kernel for more wider scenarios!

Gabriel Krisman Bertazi 955405d117 unicode: introduce UTF-8 character database
The decomposition and casefolding of UTF-8 characters are described in a
prefix tree in utf8data.h, which is a generate from the Unicode
Character Database (UCD), published by the Unicode Consortium, and
should not be edited by hand.  The structures in utf8data.h are meant to
be used for lookup operations by the unicode subsystem, when decoding a
utf-8 string.

mkutf8data.c is the source for a program that generates utf8data.h. It
was written by Olaf Weber from SGI and originally proposed to be merged
into Linux in 2014.  The original proposal performed the compatibility
decomposition, NFKD, but the current version was modified by me to do
canonical decomposition, NFD, as suggested by the community.  The
changes from the original submission are:

  * Rebase to mainline.
  * Fix out-of-tree-build.
  * Update makefile to build 11.0.0 ucd files.
  * drop references to xfs.
  * Convert NFKD to NFD.
  * Merge back robustness fixes from original patch. Requested by
    Dave Chinner.

The original submission is archived at:

<https://linux-xfs.oss.sgi.narkive.com/Xx10wjVY/rfc-unicode-utf-8-support-for-xfs>

The utf8data.h file can be regenerated using the instructions in
fs/unicode/README.utf8data.

- Notes on the update from 8.0.0 to 11.0:

The structure of the ucd files and special cases have not experienced
any changes between versions 8.0.0 and 11.0.0.  8.0.0 saw the addition
of Cherokee LC characters, which is an interesting case for
case-folding.  The update is accompanied by new tests on the test_ucd
module to catch specific cases.  No changes to mkutf8data script were
required for the updates.

David Howells 24dcb3d90a vfs: syscall: Add fsopen() to prepare for superblock creation
Provide an fsopen() system call that starts the process of preparing to
create a superblock that will then be mountable, using an fd as a context
handle.  fsopen() is given the name of the filesystem that will be used:

	int mfd = fsopen(const char *fsname, unsigned int flags);

where flags can be 0 or FSOPEN_CLOEXEC.

For example:

	sfd = fsopen("ext4", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC);
	fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_PATH, "source", "/dev/sda1", AT_FDCWD);
	fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "noatime", NULL, 0);
	fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "acl", NULL, 0);
	fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "user_xattr", NULL, 0);
	fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "sb", "1", 0);
	fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0);
	fsinfo(sfd, NULL, ...); // query new superblock attributes
	mfd = fsmount(sfd, FSMOUNT_CLOEXEC, MS_RELATIME);
	move_mount(mfd, "", sfd, AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);

	sfd = fsopen("afs", -1);
	fsconfig(fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source",
		 "#grand.central.org:root.cell", 0);
	fsconfig(fd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0);
	mfd = fsmount(sfd, 0, MS_NODEV);
	move_mount(mfd, "", sfd, AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);

If an error is reported at any step, an error message may be available to be
read() back (ENODATA will be reported if there isn't an error available) in
the form:

	"e <subsys>:<problem>"
	"e SELinux:Mount on mountpoint not permitted"

Once fsmount() has been called, further fsconfig() calls will incur EBUSY,
even if the fsmount() fails.  read() is still possible to retrieve error
information.

The fsopen() syscall creates a mount context and hangs it of the fd that it
returns.

Netlink is not used because it is optional and would make the core VFS
dependent on the networking layer and also potentially add network
namespace issues.

Note that, for the moment, the caller must have SYS_CAP_ADMIN to use
fsopen().
