Merge tag 'vfs-7.1-rc1.mount.v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Add FSMOUNT_NAMESPACE flag to fsmount() that creates a new mount
namespace with the newly created filesystem attached to a copy of the
real rootfs. This returns a namespace file descriptor instead of an
O_PATH mount fd, similar to how OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE works for
open_tree().
This allows creating a new filesystem and immediately placing it in a
new mount namespace in a single operation, which is useful for
container runtimes and other namespace-based isolation mechanisms.
This accompanies OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE and avoids a needless detour via
OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE to get the same effect. Will be especially useful
when you mount an actual filesystem to be used as the container
rootfs.
- Currently, creating a new mount namespace always copies the entire
mount tree from the caller's namespace. For containers and sandboxes
that intend to build their mount table from scratch this is wasteful:
they inherit a potentially large mount tree only to immediately tear
it down.
This series adds support for creating a mount namespace that contains
only a clone of the root mount, with none of the child mounts. Two
new flags are introduced:
- CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS (0x400000000) for clone3(), using the 64-bit flag space
- UNSHARE_EMPTY_MNTNS (0x00100000) for unshare()
Both flags imply CLONE_NEWNS. The resulting namespace contains a
single nullfs root mount with an immutable empty directory. The
intended workflow is to then mount a real filesystem (e.g., tmpfs)
over the root and build the mount table from there.
- Allow MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH to target the caller's rootfs, allowing to
switch out the rootfs without pivot_root(2).
The traditional approach to switching the rootfs involves
pivot_root(2) or a chroot_fs_refs()-based mechanism that atomically
updates fs->root for all tasks sharing the same fs_struct. This has
consequences for fork(), unshare(CLONE_FS), and setns().
This series instead decomposes root-switching into individually
atomic, locally-scoped steps:
fd_tree = open_tree(-EBADF, "/newroot", OPEN_TREE_CLONE | OPEN_TREE_CLOEXEC);
fchdir(fd_tree);
move_mount(fd_tree, "", AT_FDCWD, "/", MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH | MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
chroot(".");
umount2(".", MNT_DETACH);
Since each step only modifies the caller's own state, the
fork/unshare/setns races are eliminated by design.
A key step to making this possible is to remove the locked mount
restriction. Originally MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH doesn't support mounting
beneath a mount that is locked. The locked mount protects the
underlying mount from being revealed. This is a core mechanism of
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS). The mounts in the new mount
namespace become locked. That effectively makes the new mount table
useless as the caller cannot ever get rid of any of the mounts no
matter how useless they are.
We can lift this restriction though. We simply transfer the locked
property from the top mount to the mount beneath. This works because
what we care about is to protect the underlying mount aka the parent.
The mount mounted between the parent and the top mount takes over the
job of protecting the parent mount from the top mount mount. This
leaves us free to remove the locked property from the top mount which
can consequently be unmounted:
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS)
and we inherit a clone of procfs on /proc then currently we cannot
unmount it as:
umount -l /proc
will fail with EINVAL because the procfs mount is locked.
After this series we can now do:
mount --beneath -t tmpfs tmpfs /proc
umount -l /proc
after which a tmpfs mount has been placed beneath the procfs mount.
The tmpfs mount has become locked and the procfs mount has become
unlocked.
This means you can safely modify an inherited mount table after
unprivileged namespace creation.
Afterwards we simply make it possible to move a mount beneath the
rootfs allowing to upgrade the rootfs.
Removing the locked restriction makes this very useful for containers
created with unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS) to reshuffle an
inherited mount table safely and MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH makes it possible
to switch out the rootfs instead of using the costly pivot_root(2).

selftests/fsmount_ns: add missing TARGETS and fix cap test
Add missing top-level kselftest TARGETS entries for empty_mntns and
fsmount_ns so that 'make kselftest' discovers and runs these tests.
Fix requires_cap_sys_admin test which always SKIPped because fsopen()
was called after enter_userns(), where CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the mount
namespace's user_ns is unavailable. Move fsopen/fsconfig before fork so
the configured fs_fd is inherited by the child, which then only needs to
call fsmount() after dropping privileges.

The simple_xattr subsystem currently uses an rbtree protected by a reader-writer spinlock. This series replaces the rbtree with an rhashtable giving O(1) average-case lookup with RCU-based lockless reads. This sped up concurrent access patterns on tmpfs quite a bit and it's an overall easy enough conversion to do and gets rid or rwlock_t. The conversion is done incrementally: a new rhashtable path is added alongside the existing rbtree, consumers are migrated one at a time (shmem, kernfs, pidfs), and then the rbtree code is removed. All three consumers switch from embedded structs to pointer-based lazy allocation so the rhashtable overhead is only paid for inodes that actually use xattrs. With this infrastructure in place the series adds support for user.* xattrs on sockets. Path-based AF_UNIX sockets inherit xattr support from the underlying filesystem (e.g. tmpfs) but sockets in sockfs - that is everything created via socket() including abstract namespace AF_UNIX sockets - had no xattr support at all. The xattr_permission() checks are reworked to allow user.* xattrs on S_IFSOCK inodes. Sockfs sockets get per-inode limits of 128 xattrs and 128KB total value size matching the limits already in use for kernfs. The practical motivation comes from several directions. systemd and GNOME are expanding their use of Varlink as an IPC mechanism. For D-Bus there are tools like dbus-monitor that can observe IPC traffic across the system but this only works because D-Bus has a central broker. For Varlink there is no broker and there is currently no way to identify which sockets speak Varlink. With user.* xattrs on sockets a service can label its socket with the IPC protocol it speaks (e.g., user.varlink=1) and an eBPF program can then selectively capture traffic on those sockets. Enumerating bound sockets via netlink combined with these xattr labels gives a way to discover all Varlink IPC entrypoints for debugging and introspection. Similarly, systemd-journald wants to use xattrs on the /dev/log socket for protocol negotiation to indicate whether RFC 5424 structured syslog is supported or whether only the legacy RFC 3164 format should be used. In containers these labels are particularly useful as high-privilege or more complicated solutions for socket identification aren't available. The series comes with comprehensive selftests covering path-based AF_UNIX sockets, sockfs socket operations, per-inode limit enforcement, and xattr operations across multiple address families (AF_INET, AF_INET6, AF_NETLINK, AF_PACKET)" * tag 'vfs-7.1-rc1.xattr' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: selftests/xattr: test xattrs on various socket families selftests/xattr: sockfs socket xattr tests selftests/xattr: path-based AF_UNIX socket xattr tests xattr: support extended attributes on sockets xattr,net: support limited amount of extended attributes on sockfs sockets xattr: move user limits for xattrs to generic infra xattr: switch xattr_permission() to switch statement xattr: add xattr_permission_error() xattr: remove rbtree-based simple_xattr infrastructure pidfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs kernfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation shmem: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation xattr: add rhashtable-based simple_xattr infrastructure xattr: add rcu_head and rhash_head to struct simple_xattr |

selftests/filesystems: add clone3 tests for empty mount namespaces
Add a test suite for the CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS flag exercising the empty mount namespace functionality through the clone3() syscall. The clone3() code path is distinct from the unshare() path already tested in empty_mntns_test.c. With clone3(), CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS (0x400000000ULL) is a 64-bit flag that implies CLONE_NEWNS. The implication happens in kernel_clone() before copy_process(), unlike unshare() where it goes through UNSHARE_EMPTY_MNTNS to CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS conversion in unshare_nsproxy_namespaces(). The tests cover: - basic functionality: clone3 child gets empty mount namespace with exactly one mount, root and cwd point to the same mount - CLONE_NEWNS implication: CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS works without explicit CLONE_NEWNS, also works with redundant CLONE_NEWNS - flag interactions: combines correctly with CLONE_NEWUSER, CLONE_NEWPID, CLONE_NEWUTS, CLONE_NEWIPC, CLONE_PIDFD - mutual exclusion: CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS | CLONE_FS returns EINVAL because the implied CLONE_NEWNS conflicts with CLONE_FS - error paths: EPERM without capabilities, unknown 64-bit flags rejected - parent isolation: parent mount namespace is unchanged after clone - many parent mounts: child still gets exactly one mount - mount properties: root mount is nullfs, is its own parent, is the only listmount entry - overmount workflow: child can mount tmpfs over nullfs root to build a writable filesystem from scratch - repeated clone3: each child gets a distinct mount namespace - setns: parent can join child's empty mount namespace via setns() - regression: plain CLONE_NEWNS via clone3 still copies the full mount tree Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260306-work-empty-mntns-consolidated-v1-3-6eb30529bbb0@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> |

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.

Significant patch series in this pull request:
- The 6 patch series "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential
issue" from Andy Shevchenko fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in
ib/sys_info.c.
- The 9 patch series "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" from
David Laight enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and
beefs up the test module for these library functions.
- The 2 patch series "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available
to GDB" from Ilya Leoshkevich makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line
numbers available to the GDB debugger.
- The 4 patch series "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system
info on demand" from Feng Tang adds a sysctl which can be used to cause
additional info dumping when the hung-task and lockup detectors fire.
- The 6 patch series "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate
users" from Kuan-Wei Chiu adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/
and migrates several users away from their private implementations.
- The 2 patch series "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" from Eric
Dumazet makes TCP a little faster.
- The 9 patch series "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" from
Pasha Tatashin reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for
Live Update Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients.
- The 13 patch series "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic
updates" from Pasha Tatashin increases the flexibility of KEXEC
Handover. Also preparation for LUO.
- The 18 patch series "Live Update Orchestrator" from Pasha Tatashin is
a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the [0/N]:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem
designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot.
This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors
to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO
achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as
memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file
descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or
any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec
reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.
- The 3 patch series "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" from
Sourabh Jain moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/
to /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
hopefully be removed one day.
- The 2 patch series "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" from Mike
Rapoport fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of
vmalloc() regions.

Char/Misc/IIO/Binder changes for 6.18-rc1
Here is the big set of char/misc/iio and other driver subsystem changes
for 6.18-rc1. Loads of different stuff in here, it was a busy
development cycle in lots of different subsystems, with over 27k new
lines added to the tree. Included in here are:
- IIO updates including new drivers, reworking of existing apis, and
other goodness in the sensor subsystems
- MEI driver updates and additions
- NVMEM driver updates
- slimbus removal for an unused driver and some other minor
updates
- coresight driver updates and additions
- MHI driver updates
- comedi driver updates and fixes
- extcon driver updates
- interconnect driver additions
- eeprom driver updates and fixes
- minor UIO driver updates
- tiny W1 driver updates
But the majority of new code is in the rust bindings and additions,
which includes:
- misc driver rust binding updates for read/write support, we can now
write "normal" misc drivers in rust fully, and the sample driver
shows how this can be done.
- Initial framework for USB driver rust bindings, which are disabled
for now in the build, due to limited support, but coming in through
this tree due to dependencies on other rust binding changes that
were in here. I'll be enabling these back on in the build in the
usb.git tree after -rc1 is out so that developers can continue to
work on these in linux-next over the next development cycle.
- Android Binder driver implemented in Rust. This is the big one, and
was driving a huge majority of the rust binding work over the past
years. Right now there are 2 binder drivers in the kernel, selected
only at build time as to which one to use as binder wants to be
included in the system at boot time. The binder C maintainers all
agreed on this, as eventually, they want the C code to be removed from
the tree, but it will take a few releases to get there while both
are maintained to ensure that the rust implementation is fully
stable and compliant with the existing userspace apis.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with only minor merge
issues showing up (you will hit them as well.) Just accept both sides
of the merge, it's just some header and include file lines, nothing
major.

"This contains some work around mount api handling:
- Output the warning message for mnt_too_revealing() triggered during
fsmount() to the fscontext log. This makes it possible for the
mount tool to output appropriate warnings on the command line.
For example, with the newest fsopen()-based mount(8) from
util-linux, the error messages now look like:
# mount -t proc proc /tmp
mount: /tmp: fsmount() failed: VFS: Mount too revealing.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
- Do not consume fscontext log entries when returning -EMSGSIZE
Userspace generally expects APIs that return -EMSGSIZE to allow for
them to adjust their buffer size and retry the operation.
However, the fscontext log would previously clear the message even
in the -EMSGSIZE case.
Given that it is very cheap for us to check whether the buffer is
too small before we remove the message from the ring buffer, let's
just do that instead.
- Drop an unused argument from do_remount()"

simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.16-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()
- Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages
- Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs
documentation
- Update main netfs API document
- Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan()
- Remove unnecessary NULL-check guards during setns()
- Add separate separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op cases
Fixes:
- Fix typo in root= kernel parameter description
- Use KERN_INFO for infof()|info_plog()|infofc()
- Correct comments of fs_validate_description()
- Mark an unlikely if condition with unlikely() in
vfs_parse_monolithic_sep()
- Delete macro fsparam_u32hex()
- Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table()
- Fix potential unsigned integer underflow in fs_name()
- Make file-nr output the total allocated file handles"
