Merge tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.ovl' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull overlayfs cred guard conversion from Christian Brauner:
"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);
/* creation operations */
}
}
(3) Copy-up credential guard (ovl_cu_creds):
Introduced a specialized guard for copy-up operations,
simplifying the previous struct ovl_cu_creds helper and
associated functions.
Ported ovl_copy_up_workdir() and ovl_copy_up_tmpfile() to this
pattern.
Cleanups:
- Remove ovl_revert_creds() after all callers converted to guards
- Remove struct ovl_cu_creds and associated functions
- Drop ovl_setup_cred_for_create() after conversion
- Refactor ovl_fill_super(), ovl_lookup(), ovl_iterate(),
ovl_rename() for cleaner credential guard scope
- Introduce struct ovl_renamedata to simplify rename handling
- Don't override credentials for ovl_check_whiteouts() (unnecessary)
- Remove unneeded semicolon"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
