Commit f77f281b61 ("fsverity: use a hashtable to find the
fsverity_info") made fsverity_active() check whether the inode has the
verity flag, rather than whether the inode's fsverity_info is loaded.
This broke ovl_ensure_verity_loaded(), which wants to load the
fsverity_info for any verity inodes that haven't had it loaded yet.
Therefore, to check that the fsverity_info hasn't yet been loaded, use
fsverity_get_info(inode) == NULL instead of !fsverity_active(inode).
Also, since fsverity_get_info() now involves a hash table lookup, put
the more lightweight IS_VERITY() flag check first.

Pull vfs i_ino updates from Christian Brauner:
"For historical reasons, the inode->i_ino field is an unsigned long,
which means that it's 32 bits on 32 bit architectures. This has caused
a number of filesystems to implement hacks to hash a 64-bit identifier
into a 32-bit field, and deprives us of a universal identifier field
for an inode.
This changes the inode->i_ino field from an unsigned long to a u64.
This shouldn't make any material difference on 64-bit hosts, but
32-bit hosts will see struct inode grow by at least 4 bytes. This
could have effects on slabcache sizes and field alignment.
The bulk of the changes are to format strings and tracepoints, since
the kernel itself doesn't care that much about the i_ino field. The
first patch changes some vfs function arguments, so check that one out
carefully.
With this change, we may be able to shrink some inode structures. For
instance, struct nfs_inode has a fileid field that holds the 64-bit
inode number. With this set of changes, that field could be
eliminated. I'd rather leave that sort of cleanups for later just to
keep this simple"

On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which
causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several
filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that
exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions
and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems.
Change the type of inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that
inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of
architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to
%llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable
types.
This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series
handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for
better struct packing on 32-bit.

"This converts all of overlayfs to use credential guards, eliminating
manual credential management throughout the filesystem.
Credential guard conversion:
- Convert all of overlayfs to use credential guards, replacing the
manual ovl_override_creds()/ovl_revert_creds() pattern with scoped
guards.
This makes credential handling visually explicit and eliminates a
class of potential bugs from mismatched override/revert calls.
(1) Basic credential guard (with_ovl_creds)
(2) Creator credential guard (ovl_override_creator_creds):
Introduced a specialized guard for file creation operations
that handles the two-phase credential override (mounter
credentials, then fs{g,u}id override). The new pattern is much
clearer:
with_ovl_creds(dentry->d_sb) {
scoped_class(prepare_creds_ovl, cred, dentry, inode, mode) {
if (IS_ERR(cred))
return PTR_ERR(cred);

This series is part of a larger effort to change directory operation

To help with changing the locking protocol, this series centralizes

(currently the lock is held on dentry->d_parent->d_inode, but that can
change in the future).
This also changes vfs_mkdir() to unlock the parent on failure, as well
as dput()ing the dentry. This allows end_creating() to only require

Several callers perform a rename on a dentry they already have, and only
require lookup for the target name. This includes smb/server and a few
different places in overlayfs.
start_renaming_dentry() performs the required lookup and takes the
required lock using lock_rename_child()
It is used in three places in overlayfs and in ksmbd_vfs_rename().
In the ksmbd case, the parent of the source is not important - the
source must be renamed from wherever it is. So start_renaming_dentry()
allows rd->old_parent to be NULL and only checks it if it is non-NULL.
On success rd->old_parent will be the parent of old_dentry with an extra
reference taken. Other start_renaming function also now take the extra
reference and end_renaming() now drops this reference as well.
ovl_lookup_temp(), ovl_parent_lock(), and ovl_parent_unlock() are
all removed as they are no longer needed.
OVL_TEMPNAME_SIZE and ovl_tempname() are now declared in overlayfs.h so
that ovl_check_rename_whiteout() can access them.
ovl_copy_up_workdir() now always cleans up on error.

commit 9d23967b18 ("ovl: simplify an error path in
ovl_copy_up_workdir()") introduced the helper ovl_cleanup_unlocked(),
which is later used in several following patches to re-acquire the parent
inode lock and unlink a dentry that was earlier found using lookup.
This helper was eventually renamed to ovl_cleanup().
The helper ovl_parent_lock() is used to re-acquire the parent inode lock.
After acquiring the parent inode lock, the helper verifies that the
dentry has not since been moved to another parent, but it failed to
verify that the dentry wasn't unlinked from the parent.
This means that now every call to ovl_cleanup() could potentially
race with another thread, unlinking the dentry to be cleaned up
underneath overlayfs and trigger a vfs assertion.

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"

Rather than locking the directory(s) before calling
ovl_cleanup_and_whiteout(), change it (and ovl_whiteout()) to do the
locking, so the locking can be fine grained as will be needed for
proposed locking changes.
Sometimes this is called to whiteout something in the index dir, in
which case only that dir must be locked. In one case it is called on
something in an upperdir, so two directories must be locked. We use
ovl_lock_rename_workdir() for this and remove the restriction that
upperdir cannot be indexdir - because now sometimes it is.

ovl_cleanup_index() takes a lock on the directory and then does a lookup
and possibly one of two different cleanups.
This patch narrows the locking to use the _unlocked() versions of the
lookup and one cleanup, and just takes the lock for the other cleanup.
A subsequent patch will take the lock into the cleanup.

ovl currently locks a directory or two and then performs multiple actions
in one or both directories. This is incompatible with proposed changes
which will lock just the dentry of objects being acted on.
This patch moves calls to ovl_create_temp() out of the locked regions and
has it take and release the relevant lock itself.
The lock that was taken before this function was called is now taken
after. This means that any code between where the lock was taken and
ovl_create_temp() is now unlocked. This necessitates the use of
ovl_cleanup_unlocked() and the creation of ovl_lookup_upper_unlocked().
These will be used more widely in future patches.
Now that the file is created before the lock is taken for rename, we
need to ensure the parent wasn't changed before the lock was gained.
ovl_lock_rename_workdir() is changed to optionally receive the dentries
that will be involved in the rename. If either is present but has the
wrong parent, an error is returned.

If ovl_copy_up_data() fails the error is not immediately handled but the
code continues on to call ovl_start_write() and lock_rename(),
presumably because both of these locks are needed for the cleanup.
Only then (if the lock was successful) is the error checked.
This makes the code a little hard to follow and could be fragile.
This patch changes to handle the error after the ovl_start_write()
(which cannot fail, so there aren't multiple errors to deail with). A
new ovl_cleanup_unlocked() is created which takes the required directory
lock. This will be used extensively in later patches.
In general we need to check the parent is still correct after taking the
lock (as ovl_copy_up_workdir() does after a successful lock_rename()) so
that is included in ovl_cleanup_unlocked() using new ovl_parent_lock()
and ovl_parent_unlock() calls (it is planned to move this API into VFS code
eventually, though in a slightly different form).

Case folding is often applied to subtrees and not on an entire
filesystem.
Disallowing layers from filesystems that support case folding is over
limiting.
Replace the rule that case-folding capable are not allowed as layers
with a rule that case folded directories are not allowed in a merged
directory stack.
Should case folding be enabled on an underlying directory while
overlayfs is mounted the outcome is generally undefined.
Specifically in ovl_lookup(), we check the base underlying directory
and fail with -ESTALE and write a warning to kmsg if an underlying
directory case folding is enabled.

all users of 'struct renamedata' have the dentry for the old and new
directories, and often have no use for the inode except to store it in
the renamedata.
This patch changes struct renamedata to hold the dentry, rather than
the inode, for the old and new directories, and changes callers to
match. The names are also changed from a _dir suffix to _parent. This
is consistent with other usage in namei.c and elsewhere.
This results in the removal of several local variables and several
dereferences of ->d_inode at the cost of adding ->d_inode dereferences
to vfs_rename().

In ovl_path_type() and ovl_is_metacopy_dentry() GCC notices that it is
possible for OVL_E() to return NULL (which implies that d_inode(dentry)
may be NULL). This would result in out of bounds reads via container_of(),
seen with GCC 15's -Warray-bounds -fdiagnostics-details. For example:
In file included from arch/x86/include/generated/asm/rwonce.h:1,

185 | return inode ? OVL_I(inode)->oe : NULL;
'ovl_path_type': event 2
Avoid this by allowing ovl_dentry_upper() to return NULL if d_inode() is
NULL, as that means the problematic dereferencing can never be reached.
Note that this fixes the over-eager compiler warning in an effort to
being able to enable -Warray-bounds globally. There is no known
behavioral bug here.

The _light() functions do not change the 'usage' of the credentials in
question, as they refer to the credentials associated with the

In ovl_setup_cred_for_create(), do not need to modify the mounter

Add a warning to verify that we are indeed working with the mounter

An opaque directory cannot have xwhiteouts, so instead of marking an
xwhiteouts directory with a new xattr, overload overlay.opaque xattr
for marking both opaque dir ('y') and xwhiteouts dir ('x').
This is more efficient as the overlay.opaque xattr is checked during
lookup of directory anyway.
This also prevents unnecessary checking the xattr when reading a
directory without xwhiteouts, i.e. most of the time.
Note that the xwhiteouts marker is not checked on the upper layer and
on the last layer in lowerstack, where xwhiteouts are not expected.

Holding ->s_vfs_rename_mutex *almost* prevents ->d_parent changes; the

In other words, ->s_vfs_rename_mutex is sufficient to stabilize "X is an
ancestor of Y" only if X and Y are already in the same tree. Otherwise
it can go from false to true, and one can construct a deadlock on that.
Make lock_two_directories() report an error in such case and update the
callers of lock_rename()/lock_rename_child() to handle such errors.

When the index feature is disabled, ofs->indexdir is NULL.
When the index feature is enabled, ofs->indexdir has the same value as
ofs->workdir and takes an extra reference.
This makes the code harder to understand when it is not always clear
that ofs->indexdir in one function is the same dentry as ofs->workdir
in another function.
Remove this redundancy, by referencing ofs->workdir directly in index
helpers and by using the ovl_indexdir() accessor in generic code.

Pull vfs fanotify fsid updates from Christian Brauner:
"This work is part of the plan to enable fanotify to serve as a drop-in
replacement for inotify. While inotify is availabe on all filesystems,
fanotify currently isn't.
In order to support fanotify on all filesystems two things are needed:
(1) all filesystems need to support AT_HANDLE_FID
(2) all filesystems need to report a non-zero f_fsid
This contains (1) and allows filesystems to encode non-decodable file
handlers for fanotify without implementing any exportfs operations by
encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from i_ino and
i_generation.
Filesystems that want to opt out of encoding non-decodable file ids
for fanotify that don't support NFS export can do so by providing an
empty export_operations struct.
This also partially addresses (2) by generating f_fsid for simple
filesystems as well as freevxfs. Remaining filesystems will be dealt
with by separate patches.
Finally, this contains the patch from the current exportfs maintainers
which moves exportfs under vfs with Chuck, Jeff, and Amir as
maintainers and vfs.git as tree"

An xattr whiteout (called "xwhiteout" in the code) is a reguar file of
zero size with the "overlay.whiteout" xattr set. A file like this in a
directory with the "overlay.whiteouts" xattrs set will be treated the
same way as a regular whiteout.
The "overlay.whiteouts" directory xattr is used in order to
efficiently handle overlay checks in readdir(), as we only need to
checks xattrs in affected directories.
The advantage of this kind of whiteout is that they can be escaped
using the standard overlay xattr escaping mechanism. So, a file with a
"overlay.overlay.whiteout" xattr would be unescaped to
"overlay.whiteout", which could then be consumed by another overlayfs
as a whiteout.
Overlayfs itself doesn't create whiteouts like this, but a userspace
mechanism could use this alternative mechanism to convert images that
may contain whiteouts to be used with overlayfs.
To work as a whiteout for both regular overlayfs mounts as well as
userxattr mounts both the "user.overlay.whiteout*" and the
"trusted.overlay.whiteout*" xattrs will need to be created.
