The ProtectionKey entry was added in v4.9; back then it was x86-specific,
but it now lives in generic code and applies to all architectures
supporting pkeys (currently x86, power, arm64).
Time to document it: add a paragraph to proc.rst about the ProtectionKey
entry.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linkinjeon/ntfs
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"

Pull x86 resource control updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add return value descriptions to several internal functions,
addressing kernel-doc complaints
- Add the x86 maintainer mailing list to the resctrl section so they
are automatically included in patch submissions, and reference the
applicable contribution rules document
- Allow users to apply a single Capacity Bitmask to all cache domains
at once using '*' as a shorthand, instead of having to specify each
domain individually. This is particularly user-friendly on high
core-count systems with many cache clusters
- When a user provides a non-existent domain ID while configuring cache
allocation, ensure the failure reason is properly reported to the
user rather than silently returning an error with a misleading "ok"

While discussing memcg intergration with gpu memory allocations,
it was pointed out that there was no numa/system counters for
GPU memory allocations.
With more integrated memory GPU server systems turning up, and
more requirements for memory tracking it seems we should start
closing the gap.
Add two counters to track GPU per-node system memory allocations.
The first is currently allocated to GPU objects, and the second
is for memory that is stored in GPU page pools that can be reclaimed,
by the shrinker.

A user can invoke mmap_action_map_kernel_pages() to specify that the
mapping should map kernel pages starting from desc->start of a specified
number of pages specified in an array.
In order to implement this, adjust mmap_action_prepare() to be able to
return an error code, as it makes sense to assert that the specified
parameters are valid as quickly as possible as well as updating the VMA
flags to include VMA_MIXEDMAP_BIT as necessary.
This provides an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_insert_pages(). We
additionally update the existing vm_insert_pages() code to use
range_in_vma() and add a new range_in_vma_desc() helper function for the
mmap_prepare case, sharing the code between the two in range_is_subset().
We add both mmap_action_map_kernel_pages() and
mmap_action_map_kernel_pages_full() to allow for both partial and full VMA
mappings.
We update the documentation to reflect the new features.
Finally, we update the VMA tests accordingly to reflect the changes.

Currently drivers use vm_iomap_memory() as a simple helper function for
I/O remapping memory over a range starting at a specified physical address
over a specified length.
In order to utilise this from mmap_prepare, separate out the core logic
into __simple_ioremap_prep(), update vm_iomap_memory() to use it, and add
simple_ioremap_prepare() to do the same with a VMA descriptor object.
We also add MMAP_SIMPLE_IO_REMAP and relevant fields to the struct
mmap_action type to permit this operation also.
We use mmap_action_ioremap() to set up the actual I/O remap operation once
we have checked and figured out the parameters, which makes
simple_ioremap_prepare() easy to implement.
We then add mmap_action_simple_ioremap() to allow drivers to make use of
this mode.
We update the mmap_prepare documentation to describe this mode. Finally,
we update the VMA tests to reflect this change.

Previously, when a driver needed to do something like establish a
reference count, it could do so in the mmap hook in the knowledge that the
mapping would succeed.
With the introduction of f_op->mmap_prepare this is no longer the case, as
it is invoked prior to actually establishing the mapping.
mmap_prepare is not appropriate for this kind of thing as it is called
before any merge might take place, and after which an error might occur
meaning resources could be leaked.
To take this into account, introduce a new vm_ops->mapped callback which
is invoked when the VMA is first mapped (though notably - not when it is
merged - which is correct and mirrors existing mmap/open/close behaviour).
We do better that vm_ops->open() here, as this callback can return an
error, at which point the VMA will be unmapped.
Note that vm_ops->mapped() is invoked after any mmap action is complete
(such as I/O remapping).
We intentionally do not expose the VMA at this point, exposing only the
fields that could be used, and an output parameter in case the operation
needs to update the vma->vm_private_data field.
In order to deal with stacked filesystems which invoke inner filesystem's
mmap() invocations, add __compat_vma_mapped() and invoke it on vfs_mmap()
(via compat_vma_mmap()) to ensure that the mapped callback is handled when
an mmap() caller invokes a nested filesystem's mmap_prepare() callback.
Update the mmap_prepare documentation to describe the mapped hook and make
it clear what its intended use is.
The vm_ops->mapped() call is handled by the mmap complete logic to ensure
the same code paths are handled by both the compatibility and VMA layers.
Additionally, update VMA userland test headers to reflect the change.

This documentation makes it easier for a driver/file system implementer to
correctly use this callback.
It covers the fundamentals, whilst intentionally leaving the less lovely
possible actions one might take undocumented (for instance - the
success_hook, error_hook fields in mmap_action).
The document also covers the new VMA flags implementation which is the
only one which will work correctly with mmap_prepare.

Configuring the io_alloc_cbm interface requires an explicit domain ID for each
cache domain. On systems with high core counts and numerous cache clusters,
this requirement becomes cumbersome for automation and management tasks that
aim to apply a uniform policy.
Introduce a wildcard domain ID selector "*" for the io_alloc_cbm interface.
This enables users to set the same Capacity Bitmask (CBM) across all cache
domains in a single operation.

Commit 7d6899fb69d25 ("ovl: fsync after metadata copy-up") was done to
fix durability of overlayfs copy up on an upper filesystem which does
not enforce ordering on storing of metadata changes (e.g. ubifs).
In an earlier revision of the regressing commit by Lei Lv, the metadata
fsync behavior was opt-in via a new "fsync=strict" mount option.
We were hoping that the opt-in mount option could be avoided, so the
change was only made to depend on metacopy=off, in the hope of not
hurting performance of metadata heavy workloads, which are more likely
to be using metacopy=on.
This hope was proven wrong by a performance regression report from Google
COS workload after upgrade to kernel 6.12.
This is an adaptation of Lei's original "fsync=strict" mount option
to the existing upstream code.
The new mount option is mutually exclusive with the "volatile" mount
option, so the latter is now an alias to the "fsync=volatile" mount
option.

There was recently some confusion around THPs and the interaction with
KernelPageSize / MMUPageSize. Historically, these entries always
correspond to the smallest size we could encounter, not any current
usage of transparent huge pages or larger sizes used by the MMU.
Ever since we added THP support many, many years ago, these entries
would keep reporting the smallest (fallback) granularity in a VMA.
For this reason, they default to PAGE_SIZE for all VMAs except for
VMAs where we have the guarantee that the system and the MMU will
always use larger page sizes. hugetlb, for example, exposes a custom
vm_ops->pagesize callback to handle that. Similarly, dax/device
exposes a custom vm_ops->pagesize callback and provides similar
guarantees.
Let's clarify the historical meaning of KernelPageSize / MMUPageSize,
and point at "AnonHugePages", "ShmemPmdMapped" and "FilePmdMapped"
regarding PMD entries.
While at it, document "FilePmdMapped", clarify what the "AnonHugePages"
and "ShmemPmdMapped" entries really mean, and make it clear that there
are no other entries for other THP/folio sizes or mappings.
Also drop the duplicate "KernelPageSize" and "MMUPageSize" entries in
the example.

Update the NTFS driver documentation to reflect the update implementation.
Remove outdated sections (web site, old features list, known bugs,
volume/stripe sets with MD/DM driver, limitations of old driver), add a
concise overview of current driver features and long-term maintenance
focus, add a utilities support section pointing to ntfsprogs-plus project
and update mount options list with current supported options.

This reverts commit 7ffa8f3d30236e0ab897c30bdb01224ff1fe1c89.
Reverts the removal of the classic read-only ntfs driver to
serve as the base for a new read-write ntfs implementation.
If we stack changes on top of the revert patch, It will significantly
reduce the diff size, making the review easier.
This revert intentionally excludes the restoration of Kconfig and
Makefile. The Kconfig and Makefile will be added back in the final patch
of this series, enabling the driver only after all features and
improvements have been applied.

Pull more misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Optimize close_range() from O(range size) to O(active FDs) by using
find_next_bit() on the open_fds bitmap instead of linearly scanning
the entire requested range. This is a significant improvement for
large-range close operations on sparse file descriptor tables.
- Add FS_XFLAG_VERITY file attribute for fs-verity files, retrievable
via FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and file_getattr(). The flag is read-only.
Add tracepoints for fs-verity enable and verify operations,
replacing the previously removed debug printk's.
- Prevent nfsd from exporting special kernel filesystems like pidfs
and nsfs. These filesystems have custom ->open() and ->permission()
export methods that are designed for open_by_handle_at(2) only and
are incompatible with nfsd. Update the exportfs documentation
accordingly.
Fixes:
- Fix KMSAN uninit-value in ovl_fill_real() where strcmp() was used
on a non-null-terminated decrypted directory entry name from
fscrypt. This triggered on encrypted lower layers when the
decrypted name buffer contained uninitialized tail data.
The fix also adds VFS-level name_is_dot(), name_is_dotdot(), and
name_is_dot_dotdot() helpers, replacing various open-coded "." and
".." checks across the tree.
- Fix read-only fsflags not being reset together with xflags in
vfs_fileattr_set(). Currently harmless since no read-only xflags
overlap with flags, but this would cause inconsistencies for any
future shared read-only flag
- Return -EREMOTE instead of -ESRCH from PIDFD_GET_INFO when the
target process is in a different pid namespace. This lets userspace
distinguish "process exited" from "process in another namespace",
matching glibc's pidfd_getpid() behavior
Cleanups:
- Use C-string literals in the Rust seq_file bindings, replacing the
kernel::c_str!() macro (available since Rust 1.77)
- Fix typo in d_walk_ret enum comment, add porting notes for the
readlink_copy() calling convention change"

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this development cycle, we focused on several key performance
optimizations:
- introducing large folio support to enhance read speeds for
immutable files
- reducing checkpoint=enable latency by flushing only committed dirty
pages
- implementing tracepoints to diagnose and resolve lock priority
inversion.
Additionally, we introduced the packed_ssa feature to optimize the SSA
footprint when utilizing large block sizes.
Detail summary:
Enhancements:
- support large folio for immutable non-compressed case
- support non-4KB block size without packed_ssa feature
- optimize f2fs_enable_checkpoint() to avoid long delay
- optimize f2fs_overwrite_io() for f2fs_iomap_begin
- optimize NAT block loading during checkpoint write
- add write latency stats for NAT and SIT blocks in
f2fs_write_checkpoint
- pin files do not require sbi->writepages lock for ordering
- avoid f2fs_map_blocks() for consecutive holes in readpages
- flush plug periodically during GC to maximize readahead effect
- add tracepoints to catch lock overheads
- add several sysfs entries to tune internal lock priorities
Fixes:
- fix lock priority inversion issue
- fix incomplete block usage in compact SSA summaries
- fix to show simulate_lock_timeout correctly

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
- Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.
ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a
recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature
algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization.
The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there
are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that
might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually.
- Improve the AES library:
- Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and
decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code.
Enable these optimizations by default.
- Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about
half as much memory as a bidirectional key.
- Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a
single one.
- Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented. Remove the
"nhpoly1305" crypto_shash in favor of direct lib/crypto/ support for
NH hashing, and enable optimizations by default.

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
"In this cycle, inode page cache sharing among filesystems on the same
machine is now supported, which is particularly useful for
high-density hosts running tens of thousands of containers.
In addition, we fully isolate the EROFS core on-disk format from other
optional encoded layouts since the core on-disk part is designed to be
simple, effective, and secure. Users can use the core format to build
unique golden immutable images and import their filesystem trees
directly from raw block devices via DMA, page-mapped DAX devices,
and/or file-backed mounts without having to worry about unnecessary
intrinsic consistency issues found in other generic filesystems by
design. However, the full vision is still working in progress and will
spend more time to achieve final goals.
There are other improvements and bug fixes as usual, as listed below:
- Support inode page cache sharing among filesystems
- Formally separate optional encoded (aka compressed) inode layouts
(and the implementations) from the EROFS core on-disk aligned plain
format for future zero-trust security usage
- Improve performance by caching the fact that an inode does not have
a POSIX ACL

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a mix of VFS cleanups, performance improvements, API
fixes, documentation, and a deprecation notice.
Scalability and performance:
- Rework pid allocation to only take pidmap_lock once instead of
twice during alloc_pid(), improving thread creation/teardown
throughput by 10-16% depending on false-sharing luck. Pad the
namespace refcount to reduce false-sharing
- Track file lock presence via a flag in ->i_opflags instead of
reading ->i_flctx, avoiding false-sharing with ->i_readcount on
open/close hot paths. Measured 4-16% improvement on 24-core
open-in-a-loop benchmarks
- Use a consume fence in locks_inode_context() to match the
store-release/load-consume idiom, eliminating a hardware fence on
some architectures
- Annotate cdev_lock with __cacheline_aligned_in_smp to prevent
false-sharing
- Remove a redundant DCACHE_MANAGED_DENTRY check in
__follow_mount_rcu() that never fires since the caller already
verifies it, eliminating a 100% mispredicted branch
- Fix a 100% mispredicted likely() in devcgroup_inode_permission()
that became wrong after a prior code reorder
Bug fixes and correctness:
- Make insert_inode_locked() wait for inode destruction instead of
skipping, fixing a corner case where two matching inodes could
exist in the hash
- Move f_mode initialization before file_ref_init() in alloc_file()
to respect the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU ordering contract
- Add a WARN_ON_ONCE guard in try_to_free_buffers() for folios with
no buffers attached, preventing a null pointer dereference when
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS is set but no release_folio op exists
- Fix select restart_block to store end_time as timespec64, avoiding
truncation of tv_sec on 32-bit architectures
- Make dump_inode() use get_kernel_nofault() to safely access inode
and superblock fields, matching the dump_mapping() pattern
API modernization:
- Make posix_acl_to_xattr() allocate the buffer internally since
every single caller was doing it anyway. Reduces boilerplate and
unnecessary error checking across ~15 filesystems
- Replace deprecated simple_strtoul() with kstrtoul() for the
ihash_entries, dhash_entries, mhash_entries, and mphash_entries
boot parameters, adding proper error handling
- Convert chardev code to use guard(mutex) and __free(kfree) cleanup
patterns
- Replace min_t() with min() or umin() in VFS code to avoid silently
truncating unsigned long to unsigned int
- Gate LOOKUP_RCU assertions behind CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS since callers
already check the flag
Deprecation:
- Begin deprecating legacy BSD process accounting (acct(2)). The
interface has numerous footguns and better alternatives exist
(eBPF)
Documentation:
- Fix and complete kernel-doc for struct export_operations, removing
duplicated documentation between ReST and source
- Fix kernel-doc warnings for __start_dirop() and ilookup5_nowait()
Testing:
- Add a kunit test for initramfs cpio handling of entries with

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- statmount: accept fd as a parameter
Extend struct mnt_id_req with a file descriptor field and a new
STATMOUNT_BY_FD flag. When set, statmount() returns mount information
for the mount the fd resides on — including detached mounts
(unmounted via umount2(MNT_DETACH)).
For detached mounts the STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT and STATMOUNT_MNT_NS_ID
mask bits are cleared since neither is meaningful. The capability
check is skipped for STATMOUNT_BY_FD since holding an fd already
implies prior access to the mount and equivalent information is
available through fstatfs() and /proc/pid/mountinfo without
privilege. Includes comprehensive selftests covering both attached
and detached mount cases.
- fs: Remove internal old mount API code (1 patch)
Now that every in-tree filesystem has been converted to the new
mount API, remove all the legacy shim code in fs_context.c that
handled unconverted filesystems. This deletes ~280 lines including
legacy_init_fs_context(), the legacy_fs_context struct, and
associated wrappers. The mount(2) syscall path for userspace remains
untouched. Documentation references to the legacy callbacks are
cleaned up.
- mount: add OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE to open_tree()
Container runtimes currently use CLONE_NEWNS to copy the caller's
entire mount namespace — only to then pivot_root() and recursively
unmount everything they just copied. With large mount tables and
thousands of parallel container launches this creates significant
contention on the namespace semaphore.
OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE copies only the specified mount tree (like
OPEN_TREE_CLONE) but returns a mount namespace fd instead of a
detached mount fd. The new namespace contains the copied tree mounted
on top of a clone of the real rootfs.
This functions as a combined unshare(CLONE_NEWNS) + pivot_root() in a
single syscall. Works with user namespaces: an unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER)
followed by OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE creates a mount namespace owned by
the new user namespace. Mount namespace file mounts are excluded from
the copy to prevent cycles. Includes ~1000 lines of selftests"

Pull vfs nullfs update from Christian Brauner:
"Add a completely catatonic minimal pseudo filesystem called "nullfs"
and make pivot_root() work in the initramfs.
Currently pivot_root() does not work on the real rootfs because it
cannot be unmounted. Userspace has to recursively delete initramfs
contents manually before continuing boot, using the fragile
switch_root sequence (overmount + chroot).
Add nullfs, a minimal immutable filesystem that serves as the true
root of the mount hierarchy. The mutable rootfs (tmpfs/ramfs) is
mounted on top of it. This allows userspace to simply:
chdir(new_root);
pivot_root(".", ".");
umount2(".", MNT_DETACH);
without the traditional switch_root workarounds. systemd already
handles this correctly. It tries pivot_root() first and falls back
to MS_MOVE only when that fails.
This also means rootfs mounts in unprivileged namespaces no longer
need MNT_LOCKED, since the immutable nullfs guarantees nothing can be
revealed by unmounting the covering mount.
nullfs is a single-instance filesystem (get_tree_single()) marked
SB_NOUSER | SB_I_NOEXEC | SB_I_NODEV with an immutable empty root
directory. This means sooner or later it can be used to overmount
other directories to hide their contents without any additional
protection needed.
We enable it unconditionally. If we see any real regression we'll
hide it behind a boot option.
nullfs has extensions beyond this in the future. It will serve as a
concept to support the creation of completely empty mount namespaces -
which is work coming up in the next cycle"

Pull vfs lease updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains updates for lease support to require filesystems to
explicitly opt-in to lease support
Currently kernel_setlease() falls through to generic_setlease() when a
a filesystem does not define ->setlease(), silently granting lease
support to every filesystem regardless of whether it is prepared for
it.
This is a poor default: most filesystems never intended to support
leases, and the silent fallthrough makes it impossible to distinguish
"supports leases" from "never thought about it".
This inverts the default. It adds explicit
.setlease = generic_setlease;
assignments to every in-tree filesystem that should retain lease
support, then changes kernel_setlease() to return -EINVAL when
->setlease is NULL.
With the new default in place, simple_nosetlease() is redundant and
is removed along with all references to it"

Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the changes to support non-blocking timestamp updates.
Since commit 66fa3cedf16a ("fs: Add async write file modification
handling") file_update_time_flags() unconditionally returns -EAGAIN
when any timestamp needs updating and IOCB_NOWAIT is set. This makes
non-blocking direct writes impossible on file systems with granular
enough timestamps, which in practice means all of them.
This reworks the timestamp update path to propagate IOCB_NOWAIT
through ->update_time so that file systems which can update timestamps
without blocking are no longer penalized.
With that groundwork in place, the core change passes IOCB_NOWAIT into
->update_time and returns -EAGAIN only when the file system indicates
it would block.
XFS implements non-blocking timestamp updates by using the new
->sync_lazytime and open-coding generic_update_time without the
S_NOWAIT check, since the lazytime path through the generic helpers
can never block in XFS"

The following changes are proposed in the upcoming Linux 7.0:
- Enable LZMA support by default, as it's already in use by Fedora 42/43
and some Android vendors for minimal filesystem sizes;
- Promote DEFLATE and Zstandard out of EXPERIMENTAL status, given that
they have been landed and well-tested for over a year and are
already ready for general use.

The macro is related to sysfs, but is defined in kernel.h. Move it to the
proper header, and unload the generic kernel.h.
Now that the macro is removed from kernel.h, linux/moduleparam.h is
decoupled, and kernel.h inclusion can be removed.

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.
