<id>bd303368b776eead1c29e6cdda82bde7128b82a7</id>
<content type='text'>
In previous patches we added new and modified existing helpers to handle
idmapped mounts of filesystems mounted with an idmapping. In this final
patch we convert all relevant places in the vfs to actually pass the
filesystem's idmapping into these helpers.

With this the vfs is in shape to handle idmapped mounts of filesystems
mounted with an idmapping. Note that this is just the generic
infrastructure. Actually adding support for idmapped mounts to a
filesystem mountable with an idmapping is follow-up work.

In this patch we extend the definition of an idmapped mount from a mount
that that has the initial idmapping attached to it to a mount that has
an idmapping attached to it which is not the same as the idmapping the
filesystem was mounted with.

As before we do not allow the initial idmapping to be attached to a
mount. In addition this patch prevents that the idmapping the filesystem
was mounted with can be attached to a mount created based on this
filesystem.

This has multiple reasons and advantages. First, attaching the initial
idmapping or the filesystem's idmapping doesn't make much sense as in
both cases the values of the i_{g,u}id and other places where k{g,u}ids
are used do not change. Second, a user that really wants to do this for
whatever reason can just create a separate dedicated identical idmapping
to attach to the mount. Third, we can continue to use the initial
idmapping as an indicator that a mount is not idmapped allowing us to
continue to keep passing the initial idmapping into the mapping helpers
to tell them that something isn't an idmapped mount even if the
filesystem is mounted with an idmapping.

In a few places the vfs needs to interact with bare k{g,u}ids directly
instead of struct inode. These are just a few. In previous patches we
introduced low-level mapping helpers that are able to support
filesystems mounted an idmapping. This patch simply converts the places
to use these new helpers.

The low-level mapping helpers were so far crammed into fs.h. They are
out of place there. The fs.h header should just contain the higher-level
mapping helpers that interact directly with vfs objects such as struct
super_block or struct inode and not the bare mapping helpers. Similarly,
only vfs and specific fs code shall interact with low-level mapping
helpers. And so they won't be made accessible automatically through
regular {g,u}id helpers.

<content type='text'>
When truncating pagecache on file THP, the private pages of a process
should not be unmapped mapping.  This incorrect behavior on a dynamic
shared libraries which will cause related processes to happen core dump.

A simple test for a DSO (Prerequisite is the DSO mapped in file THP):

    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
	int fd;

	fd = open(argv[1], O_WRONLY);
	if (fd &lt; 0) {
		perror("open");
	}

	close(fd);
	return 0;
    }

The test only to open a target DSO, and do nothing.  But this operation
will lead one or more process to happen core dump.  This patch mainly to
fix this bug.

Patch series "fix two bugs for file THP".

This patch (of 2):

Transparent huge page has supported read-only non-shmem files.  The
file- backed THP is collapsed by khugepaged and truncated when written
(for shared libraries).

However, there is a race when multiple writers truncate the same page
cache concurrently.

In that case, subpage(s) of file THP can be revealed by find_get_entry
in truncate_inode_pages_range, which will trigger PageTail BUG_ON in
truncate_inode_page, as follows:

    page:000000009e420ff2 refcount:1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x7ff pfn:0x50c3ff

This patch mainly to lock filemap when one enter truncate_pagecache(),
avoiding truncating the same page cache concurrently.

Patch series "fix two bugs for file THP".

This patch (of 2):

Transparent huge page has supported read-only non-shmem files.  The
file- backed THP is collapsed by khugepaged and truncated when written
(for shared libraries).

However, there is a race when multiple writers truncate the same page
cache concurrently.

In that case, subpage(s) of file THP can be revealed by find_get_entry
in truncate_inode_pages_range, which will trigger PageTail BUG_ON in
truncate_inode_page, as follows:

    page:000000009e420ff2 refcount:1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x7ff pfn:0x50c3ff

<title>audit: add OPENAT2 record to list "how" info</title>

<content type='text'>
Since the openat2(2) syscall uses a struct open_how pointer to communicate
its parameters they are not usefully recorded by the audit SYSCALL record's
four existing arguments.

Add a new audit record type OPENAT2 that reports the parameters in its
third argument, struct open_how with fields oflag, mode and resolve.

The new record in the context of an event would look like:

<title>fs: remove mandatory file locking support</title>

<id>f7e33bdbd6d1bdf9c3df8bba5abcf3399f957ac3</id>
<content type='text'>
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.
