<title>afs: Fix accidental truncation when storing data</title>

<content type='text'>
When an AFS FS.StoreData RPC call is made, amongst other things it is
given the resultant file size to be.  On the server, this is processed
by truncating the file to new size and then writing the data.

Now, kafs has a lock (vnode-&gt;io_lock) that serves to serialise
operations against a specific vnode (ie.  inode), but the parameters for
the op are set before the lock is taken.  This allows two writebacks
(say sync and kswapd) to race - and if writes are ongoing the writeback
for a later write could occur before the writeback for an earlier one if
the latter gets interrupted.

Note that afs_writepages() cannot take i_mutex and only takes a shared
lock on vnode-&gt;validate_lock.

Also note that the server does the truncation and the write inside a
lock, so there's no problem at that end.

Fix this by moving the calculation for the proposed new i_size inside
the vnode-&gt;io_lock.  Also reset the iterator (which we might have read
from) and update the mtime setting there.

Fixes: bd80d8a80e12 ("afs: Use ITER_XARRAY for writing")

Pull splice updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This kills off ITER_PIPE to avoid a race between truncate,
  iov_iter_revert() on the pipe and an as-yet incomplete DMA to a bio
  with unpinned/unref'ed pages from an O_DIRECT splice read. This causes
  memory corruption.

  Instead, we either use (a) filemap_splice_read(), which invokes the
  buffered file reading code and splices from the pagecache into the
  pipe; (b) copy_splice_read(), which bulk-allocates a buffer, reads
  into it and then pushes the filled pages into the pipe; or (c) handle
  it in filesystem-specific code.

  Summary:

   - Rename direct_splice_read() to copy_splice_read()

   - Simplify the calculations for the number of pages to be reclaimed
     in copy_splice_read()

   - Turn do_splice_to() into a helper, vfs_splice_read(), so that it
     can be used by overlayfs and coda to perform the checks on the
     lower fs

   - Make vfs_splice_read() jump to copy_splice_read() to handle
     direct-I/O and DAX

   - Provide shmem with its own splice_read to handle non-existent pages
     in the pagecache. We don't want a -&gt;read_folio() as we don't want
     to populate holes, but filemap_get_pages() requires it

   - Provide overlayfs with its own splice_read to call down to a lower
     layer as overlayfs doesn't provide -&gt;read_folio()

   - Provide coda with its own splice_read to call down to a lower layer
     as coda doesn't provide -&gt;read_folio()

   - Direct -&gt;splice_read to copy_splice_read() in tty, procfs, kernfs
     and random files as they just copy to the output buffer and don't
     splice pages

   - Provide wrappers for afs, ceph, ecryptfs, ext4, f2fs, nfs, ntfs3,
     ocfs2, orangefs, xfs and zonefs to do locking and/or revalidation

   - Make cifs use filemap_splice_read()

   - Replace pointers to generic_file_splice_read() with pointers to
     filemap_splice_read() as DIO and DAX are handled in the caller;
     filesystems can still provide their own alternate -&gt;splice_read()
     op

Patch series "Remove pagevecs".

Removes a folio-&gt;page-&gt;folio conversion for each folio that's involved. 
More importantly, removes one of the last few uses of a pagevec.

Commit acc8d8588cb7 converted afs_writepages_region() to write back a
folio batch. The function waits for writeback to a folio, but then
proceeds to the rest of the batch without trying to write that folio
again. This patch fixes has it attempt to write the folio again.

[DH: Also remove an 'else' that adding a goto makes redundant]

Commit acc8d8588cb7 converted afs_writepages_region() to write back a
folio batch. If writeback needs rescheduling, the function exits without
dropping the references to the folios in fbatch. This patch fixes that.

[DH: Moved the added line before the _leave()]

<title>afs: Fix vlserver probe RTT handling</title>

In the same spirit as commit ca57f02295f1 ("afs: Fix fileserver probe
RTT handling"), don't rule out using a vlserver just because there
haven't been enough packets yet to calculate a real rtt.  Always set the
server's probe rtt from the estimate provided by rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt,
which is capped at 1 second.

This could lead to EDESTADDRREQ errors when accessing a cell for the
first time, even though the vl servers are known and have responded to a
probe.

<title>afs: Fix setting of mtime when creating a file/dir/symlink</title>

<content type='text'>
kafs incorrectly passes a zero mtime (ie. 1st Jan 1970) to the server when
creating a file, dir or symlink because the mtime recorded in the
afs_operation struct gets passed to the server by the marshalling routines,
but the afs_mkdir(), afs_create() and afs_symlink() functions don't set it.

This gets masked if a file or directory is subsequently modified.

Fix this by filling in op-&gt;mtime before calling the create op.

Provide a splice_read wrapper for AFS to call afs_validate() before going
into generic_file_splice_read() so that we're likely to have a callback
promise from the server.
