2026-04-04get rid of busy-waiting in shrink_dcache_tree()Al Viro
If shrink_dcache_tree() runs into a potential victim that is already dying, it must wait for that dentry to go away. To avoid busy-waiting we need some object to wait on and a way for dentry_unlist() to see that we need to be notified. The obvious place for the object to wait on would be on our stack frame. We will store a pointer to that object (struct completion_list) in victim dentry; if there's more than one thread wanting to wait for the same dentry to finish dying, we'll have their instances linked into a list, with reference in dentry pointing to the head of that list. * new object - struct completion_list. A pair of struct completion and pointer to the next instance. That's what shrink_dcache_tree() will wait on if needed. * add a new member (->waiters, opaque pointer to struct completion_list) to struct dentry. It is defined for negative live dentries that are not in-lookup ones and it will remain NULL for almost all of them. It does not conflict with ->d_rcu (defined for killed dentries), ->d_alias (defined for positive dentries, all live) or ->d_in_lookup_hash (defined for in-lookup dentries, all live negative). That allows to colocate all four members. * make sure that all places where dentry enters the state where ->waiters is defined (live, negative, not-in-lookup) initialize ->waiters to NULL. * if select_collect2() runs into a dentry that is already dying, have its caller insert a local instance of struct completion_list into the head of the list hanging off dentry->waiters and wait for completion. * if dentry_unlist() sees non-NULL ->waiters, have it carefully walk through the completion_list instances in that list, calling complete() for each. For now struct completion_list is local to fs/dcache.c; it's obviously dentry-agnostic, and it can be trivially lifted into linux/completion.h if somebody finds a reason to do so...

2026-04-03lsm: add backing_file LSM hooksPaul Moore
Stacked filesystems such as overlayfs do not currently provide the necessary mechanisms for LSMs to properly enforce access controls on the mmap() and mprotect() operations. In order to resolve this gap, a LSM security blob is being added to the backing_file struct and the following new LSM hooks are being created: security_backing_file_alloc() security_backing_file_free() security_mmap_backing_file() The first two hooks are to manage the lifecycle of the LSM security blob in the backing_file struct, while the third provides a new mmap() access control point for the underlying backing file. It is also expected that LSMs will likely want to update their security_file_mprotect() callback to address issues with their mprotect() controls, but that does not require a change to the security_file_mprotect() LSM hook. There are a three other small changes to support these new LSM hooks: * Pass the user file associated with a backing file down to alloc_empty_backing_file() so it can be included in the security_backing_file_alloc() hook. * Add getter and setter functions for the backing_file struct LSM blob as the backing_file struct remains private to fs/file_table.c. * Constify the file struct field in the LSM common_audit_data struct to better support LSMs that need to pass a const file struct pointer into the common LSM audit code. Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for identifying the missing EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() and supplying a fixup.

2026-04-03exfat: fix incorrect directory checksum after rename to shorter nameChi Zhiling
When renaming a file in-place to a shorter name, exfat_remove_entries marks excess entries as DELETED, but es->num_entries is not updated accordingly. As a result, exfat_update_dir_chksum iterates over the deleted entries and computes an incorrect checksum. This does not lead to persistent corruption because mark_inode_dirty() is called afterward, and __exfat_write_inode later recomputes the checksum using the correct num_entries value.

2026-04-03NFSD: convert callback RPC program to per-net namespaceDai Ngo
The callback channel's rpc_program, rpc_version, rpc_stat, and per-procedure counts are declared as file-scope statics in nfs4callback.c, shared across all network namespaces. Forechannel RPC statistics are already maintained per-netns (via nfsd_svcstats in struct nfsd_net); the backchannel has no such separation. When backchannel statistics are eventually surfaced to userspace, the global counters would expose cross-namespace data. Allocate per-netns copies of these structures through a new opaque struct nfsd_net_cb, managed by nfsd_net_cb_init() and nfsd_net_cb_shutdown(). The struct definition is private to nfs4callback.c; struct nfsd_net holds only a pointer.

2026-04-03NFSD: use per-operation statidx for callback proceduresChuck Lever
The callback RPC procedure table uses NFSPROC4_CB_##call for p_statidx, which maps CB_NULL to index 0 and every compound-based callback (CB_RECALL, CB_LAYOUT, CB_OFFLOAD, etc.) to index 1. All compound callback operations therefore share a single statistics counter, making per-operation accounting impossible. Assign p_statidx from the NFSPROC4_CLNT_##proc enum instead, giving each callback operation its own counter slot. The counts array is already sized by ARRAY_SIZE(nfs4_cb_procedures), so no allocation change is needed.

2026-04-02ubifs: remove unnecessary cond_resched() from list_sort() compareKuan-Wei Chiu
Patch series "lib/list_sort: Clean up list_sort() scheduling workarounds", v3. Historically, list_sort() included a hack in merge_final() that periodically invoked dummy cmp(priv, b, b) calls when merging highly unbalanced lists. This allowed the caller to invoke cond_resched() within their comparison callbacks to avoid soft lockups. However, an audit of the kernel tree shows that fs/ubifs/ has been the sole user of this mechanism. For all other generic list_sort() users, this results in wasted function calls and unnecessary overhead in a tight loop. Recent discussions and code inspection confirmed that the lists being sorted in UBIFS are bounded in size (a few thousand elements at most), and the comparison functions are extremely lightweight. Therefore, UBIFS does not actually need to rely on this mechanism. This patch (of 2): Historically, UBIFS embedded cond_resched() calls inside its list_sort() comparison callbacks (data_nodes_cmp, nondata_nodes_cmp, and replay_entries_cmp) to prevent soft lockups when sorting long lists. However, further inspection by Richard Weinberger reveals that these compare functions are extremely lightweight and do not perform any blocking MTD I/O. Furthermore, the lists being sorted are strictly bounded in size: - In the GC case, the list contains at most the number of nodes that fit into a single LEB. - In the replay case, the list spans across a few LEBs from the UBIFS journal, amounting to at most a few thousand elements. Since the compare functions are called a few thousand times at most, the overhead of frequent scheduling points is unjustified. Removing the cond_resched() calls simplifies the comparison logic and reduces unnecessary context switch checks during the sort.

2026-04-02fuse: clean up device cloningMiklos Szeredi
- fuse_mutex is not needed for device cloning, because fuse_dev_install() uses cmpxcg() to set fud->fc, which prevents races between clone/mount or clone/clone. This makes the logic simpler - Drop fc->dev_count. This is only used to check in release if the device is the last clone, but checking list_empty(&fc->devices) is equivalent after removing the released device from the list. Removing the fuse_dev before calling fuse_abort_conn() is okay, since the processing and io lists are now empty for this device. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>

The use of USE_DEV_SYNC_INIT magic pointer for the private_data is now replaced with a simple bool sync_init member. If sync INIT is not set, I/O on the device returns error before mount. Keep this behavior by checking for the ->fc member. If fud->fc is set, the mount has succeeded. Testing this used READ_ONCE(file->private_data) and smp_mb() to try and provide the necessary semantics. Switch this to smp_store_release() and smp_load_acquire(). Setting fud->fc is protected by fuse_mutex, this is unchanged. Will need this later so the /dev/fuse open file reference is not held during FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE.

2026-04-02f2fs: invalidate block device page cache on umountYongpeng Yang
Neither F2FS nor VFS invalidates the block device page cache, which results in reading stale metadata. An example scenario is shown below: Terminal A Terminal B mount /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs touch mx // ino = 4 sync dump.f2fs -i 4 /dev/vdb// block on "[Y/N]" touch mx2 // ino = 5 sync umount /mnt/f2fs dump.f2fs -i 5 /dev/vdb // block addr is 0 After umount, the block device page cache is not purged, causing `dump.f2fs -i 5 /dev/vdb` to read stale metadata and see inode 5 with block address 0. Btrfs has encountered a similar issue before, the solution there was to call sync_blockdev() and invalidate_bdev() when the device is closed: mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg54188.html For the root user, the f2fs kernel calls sync_blockdev() on umount to flush all cached data to disk, and f2fs-tools can release the page cache by issuing ioctl(fd, BLKFLSBUF) when accessing the device. However, non-root users are not permitted to drop the page cache, and may still observe stale data. This patch calls sync_blockdev() and invalidate_bdev() during umount to invalidate the block device page cache, thereby preventing stale metadata from being read.

2026-04-02f2fs: fix to freeze GC and discard threads quicklyDaeho Jeong
Suspend can fail if kernel threads do not freeze for a while. f2fs_gc and f2fs_discard threads can perform long-running operations that prevent them from reaching a freeze point in a timely manner. This patch adds explicit freezing checks in the following locations: 1. f2fs_gc: Added a check at the 'retry' label to exit the loop quickly if freezing is requested, especially during heavy GC rounds. 2. __issue_discard_cmd: Added a 'suspended' flag to break both inner and outer loops during discard command issuance if freezing is detected after at least one command has been issued. 3. __issue_discard_cmd_orderly: Added a similar check for orderly discard to ensure responsiveness. These checks ensure that the threads release locks safely and enter the frozen state.

2026-04-02f2fs: fix data loss caused by incorrect use of nat_entry flagYongpeng Yang
Data loss can occur when fsync is performed on a newly created file (before any checkpoint has been written) concurrently with a checkpoint operation. The scenario is as follows: create & write & fsync 'file A' write checkpoint - f2fs_do_sync_file // inline inode - f2fs_write_inode // inode folio is dirty - f2fs_write_checkpoint - f2fs_flush_merged_writes - f2fs_sync_node_pages - f2fs_flush_nat_entries - f2fs_fsync_node_pages // no dirty node - f2fs_need_inode_block_update // return false SPO and lost 'file A' f2fs_flush_nat_entries() sets the IS_CHECKPOINTED and HAS_LAST_FSYNC flags for the nat_entry, but this does not mean that the checkpoint has actually completed successfully. However, f2fs_need_inode_block_update() checks these flags and incorrectly assumes that the checkpoint has finished. The root cause is that the semantics of IS_CHECKPOINTED and HAS_LAST_FSYNC are only guaranteed after the checkpoint write fully completes. This patch modifies f2fs_need_inode_block_update() to acquire the sbi->node_write lock before reading the nat_entry flags, ensuring that once IS_CHECKPOINTED and HAS_LAST_FSYNC are observed to be set, the checkpoint operation has already completed.

2026-04-02f2fs: fix to skip empty sections in f2fs_get_victimDaeho Jeong
In age-based victim selection (ATGC, AT_SSR, or GC_CB), f2fs_get_victim can encounter sections with zero valid blocks. This situation often arises when checkpoint is disabled or due to race conditions between SIT updates and dirty list management. In such cases, f2fs_get_section_mtime() returns INVALID_MTIME, which subsequently triggers a fatal f2fs_bug_on(sbi, mtime == INVALID_MTIME) in add_victim_entry() or get_cb_cost(). This patch adds a check in f2fs_get_victim's selection loop to skip sections with no valid blocks. This prevents unnecessary age calculations for empty sections and avoids the associated kernel panic. This change also allows removing redundant checks in add_victim_entry().

2026-04-02f2fs: fix inline data not being written to disk in writeback pathYongpeng Yang
When f2fs_fiemap() is called with `fileinfo->fi_flags` containing the FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC flag, it attempts to write data to disk before retrieving file mappings via filemap_write_and_wait(). However, there is an issue where the file does not get mapped as expected. The following scenario can occur: root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# dd if=/dev/zero of=data.3k bs=3k count=1 root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# xfs_io data.3k -c "fiemap -v 0 4096" data.3k: EXT: FILE-OFFSET BLOCK-RANGE TOTAL FLAGS 0: [0..5]: 0..5 6 0x307 The root cause of this issue is that f2fs_write_single_data_page() only calls f2fs_write_inline_data() to copy data from the data folio to the inode folio, and it clears the dirty flag on the data folio. However, it does not mark the data folio as writeback. When __filemap_fdatawait_range() checks for folios with the writeback flag, it returns early, causing f2fs_fiemap() to report that the file has no mapping. To fix this issue, the solution is to call f2fs_write_single_node_folio() in f2fs_inline_data_fiemap() when getting fiemap with FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC flags. This patch ensures that the inode folio is written back and the writeback process completes before proceeding.

2026-04-02f2fs: fix fsck inconsistency caused by FGGC of node blockYongpeng Yang
During FGGC node block migration, fsck may incorrectly treat the migrated node block as fsync-written data. The reproduction scenario: root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# seq 1 2048 | xargs -n 1 ./test_sync // write inline inode and sync root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# rm -f 1 root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# sync root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# f2fs_io gc_range // move data block in sync mode and not write CP SPO, "fsck --dry-run" find inode has already checkpointed but still with DENT_BIT_SHIFT set The root cause is that GC does not clear the dentry mark and fsync mark during node block migration, leading fsck to misinterpret them as user-issued fsync writes. In BGGC mode, node block migration is handled by f2fs_sync_node_pages(), which guarantees the dentry and fsync marks are cleared before writing. This patch move the set/clear of the fsync|dentry marks into __write_node_folio to make the logic clearer, and ensures the fsync|dentry mark is cleared in FGGC.

2026-04-02f2fs: fix fsck inconsistency caused by incorrect nat_entry flag usageYongpeng Yang
f2fs_need_dentry_mark() reads nat_entry flags without mutual exclusion with the checkpoint path, which can result in an incorrect inode block marking state. The scenario is as follows: create & write & fsync 'file A' write checkpoint - f2fs_do_sync_file // inline inode - f2fs_write_inode // inode folio is dirty - f2fs_write_checkpoint - f2fs_flush_merged_writes - f2fs_sync_node_pages - f2fs_fsync_node_pages // no dirty node - f2fs_need_inode_block_update // return true - f2fs_fsync_node_pages // inode dirtied - f2fs_need_dentry_mark //return true - f2fs_flush_nat_entries - f2fs_write_checkpoint end - __write_node_folio // inode with DENT_BIT_SHIFT set SPO, "fsck --dry-run" find inode has already checkpointed but still with DENT_BIT_SHIFT set The state observed by f2fs_need_dentry_mark() can differ from the state observed in __write_node_folio() after acquiring sbi->node_write. The root cause is that the semantics of IS_CHECKPOINTED and HAS_FSYNCED_INODE are only guaranteed after the checkpoint write has fully completed.

erofs_ioctl_get_volume_label() passes strlen(sbi->volume_name) as the length to copy_to_user(), which copies the label string without the trailing NUL byte. Since FS_IOC_GETFSLABEL callers expect a NUL-terminated string in the FSLABEL_MAX-sized buffer and may not pre-zero the buffer, this can cause userspace to read past the label into uninitialised stack memory.
