passing kmap_local_page() result to __kernel_write() is unsafe -
random ->write_iter() might (and 9p one does) get unhappy when
passed ITER_KVEC with pointer that came from kmap_local_page().
Fix by providing a variant of __kernel_write() that takes an iov_iter
from caller (__kernel_write() becomes a trivial wrapper) and adding
dump_emit_page() that parallels dump_emit(), except that instead of
__kernel_write() it uses __kernel_write_iter() with ITER_BVEC source.

after, AFAICT)"

Pull io_uring buffered writes support from Jens Axboe:
"This contains support for buffered writes, specifically for XFS. btrfs
is in progress, will be coming in the next release.
io_uring does support buffered writes on any file type, but since the
buffered write path just always -EAGAIN (or -EOPNOTSUPP) any attempt
to do so if IOCB_NOWAIT is set, any buffered write will effectively be
handled by io-wq offload. This isn't very efficient, and we even have
specific code in io-wq to serialize buffered writes to the same inode
to avoid further inefficiencies with thread offload.
This is particularly sad since most buffered writes don't block, they
simply copy data to a page and dirty it. With this pull request, we
can handle buffered writes a lot more effiently.
If balance_dirty_pages() needs to block, we back off on writes as
indicated.
This improves buffered write support by 2-3x.

Now that all callers of ->llseek are going through vfs_llseek(), we
don't gain anything by keeping no_llseek around. Nothing actually calls
it and setting ->llseek to no_lseek is completely equivalent to
leaving it NULL.
Longer term (== by the end of merge window) we want to remove all such
intializations. To simplify the merge window this commit does *not*
touch initializers - it only defines no_llseek as NULL (and simplifies
the tests on file opening).
At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -
git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done
would do it.

Now vfs_llseek() can simply check for FMODE_LSEEK; if it's set,
we know that ->llseek() won't be NULL and if it's not we should
just fail with -ESPIPE.

values of ->llseek() (somewhat inconsistently) switched to

A regression has been reported by Nicolas Boichat, found while using the
copy_file_range syscall to copy a tracefs file.
Before commit 5dae222a5f ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices") the kernel would return -EXDEV to userspace when trying to
copy a file across different filesystems. After this commit, the
syscall doesn't fail anymore and instead returns zero (zero bytes
copied), as this file's content is generated on-the-fly and thus reports
a size of zero.
Another regression has been reported by He Zhe - the assertion of
WARN_ON_ONCE(ret == -EOPNOTSUPP) can be triggered from userspace when
copying from a sysfs file whose read operation may return -EOPNOTSUPP.
Since we do not have test coverage for copy_file_range() between any two
types of filesystems, the best way to avoid these sort of issues in the
future is for the kernel to be more picky about filesystems that are
allowed to do copy_file_range().
This patch restores some cross-filesystem copy restrictions that existed
prior to commit 5dae222a5f ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices"), namely, cross-sb copy is not allowed for filesystems that do
not implement ->copy_file_range().
Filesystems that do implement ->copy_file_range() have full control of
the result - if this method returns an error, the error is returned to
the user. Before this change this was only true for fs that did not
implement the ->remap_file_range() operation (i.e. nfsv3).
Filesystems that do not implement ->copy_file_range() still fall-back to
the generic_copy_file_range() implementation when the copy is within the
same sb. This helps the kernel can maintain a more consistent story
about which filesystems support copy_file_range().
nfsd and ksmbd servers are modified to fall-back to the
generic_copy_file_range() implementation in case vfs_copy_file_range()
fails with -EOPNOTSUPP or -EXDEV, which preserves behavior of
server-side-copy.
fall-back to generic_copy_file_range() is not implemented for the smb
operation FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE, which is arguably a correct
change of behavior.

This patch removes an unnecessary comment that had to do with block special
files from `generic_write_checks()`.
The comment, originally added in Linux v2.4.14.9, was to clarify that we only
set `pos` to the file size when the file was opened with `O_APPEND` if the file
wasn't a block special file. Prior to Linux v2.4, block special files had a
different `write()` function which was unified into a generic `write()` function
in Linux v2.4. This generic `write()` function called `generic_write_checks()`.
For more details, see this earlier conversation:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/Yc4Czk5A+p5p2Y4W@mit.edu/
Currently, block special devices have their own `write_iter()` function and no
longer share the same `generic_write_checks()`, therefore rendering the comment
irrelevant.

We added CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING in 2015, and soon after turned it
off in Fedora and RHEL8. Several other distros have followed suit.
I've heard of one problem in all that time: Someone migrated from an
older distro that supported "-o mand" to one that didn't, and the host
had a fstab entry with "mand" in it which broke on reboot. They didn't
actually _use_ mandatory locking so they just removed the mount option
and moved on.
This patch rips out mandatory locking support wholesale from the kernel,
along with the Kconfig option and the Documentation file. It also
changes the mount code to ignore the "mand" mount option instead of
erroring out, and to throw a big, ugly warning.
