Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Add passthrough mode for regular file I/O.

   This allows performing read and write (also via memory maps) on a
   backing file without incurring the overhead of roundtrips to
   userspace. For now this is only allowed to privileged servers, but
   this limitation will go away in the future (Amir Goldstein)

 - Fix interaction of direct I/O mode with memory maps (Bernd Schubert)

 - Export filesystem tags through sysfs for virtiofs (Stefan Hajnoczi)

 - Allow resending queued requests for server crash recovery (Zhao Chen)

 - Misc fixes and cleanups

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
   from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
   "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

 - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series

	"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
	"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"

 - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
   significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
   reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
   scalability of zswap rb-tree".

 - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
   lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
   swap-intensive situations.

 - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
   optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.

 - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
   "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".

 - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
   contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
   control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
   hotplugged as system memory.

 - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
   which does that.

 - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series

	"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
	"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
	"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
	"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"

 - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
   extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
   policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
   rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
   environments appearing with CXL.

 - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
   against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
   Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".

 - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
   series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".

 - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
   human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
   format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
   tools to parse and process out selftesting results.

 - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
   series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
   targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
   process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.

 - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
   series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
   implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
   situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.

 - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
   Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
   mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
   series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.

 - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
   fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
   faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

 - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
   test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.

 - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
   refactoring".

 - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
   zswap kselftests" does as claimed.

 - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
   regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
   in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
   data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.

 - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
   dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
   certain userfaultfd operations.

 - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
   in his series

	"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
	"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"

 - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
   improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
   realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.

 - Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
   crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".

 - Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series

	"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
	"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"

 - Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
   order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
   of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable &gt;0 order folio
   memory compaction".

 - Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
   pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
   to an iterator".

 - Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
   "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".

 - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
   into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
   series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".

 - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
   total_mapcount()", a cleanup.

 - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
   freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".

 - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
   provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
   are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.

 - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.

 - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
   also. S390 is affected.

 - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
   "mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".

 - Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
   series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
   Selftests".

 - Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
   the individual changelogs for details.

Pull file locking updates from Christian Brauner:
 "A few years ago struct file_lock_context was added to allow for
  separate lists to track different types of file locks instead of using
  a singly-linked list for all of them.

  Now leases no longer need to be tracked using struct file_lock.
  However, a lot of the infrastructure is identical for leases and locks
  so separating them isn't trivial.

  This splits a group of fields used by both file locks and leases into
  a new struct file_lock_core. The new core struct is embedded in struct
  file_lock. Coccinelle was used to convert a lot of the callers to deal
  with the move, with the remaining 25% or so converted by hand.

  Afterwards several internal functions in fs/locks.c are made to work
  with struct file_lock_core. Ultimately this allows to split struct
  file_lock into struct file_lock and struct file_lease. The file lease

The same protection is provided by file-&gt;f_pos_lock.

Note, this relies on the fact that file-&gt;f_mode has FMODE_ATOMIC_POS.
This flag is cleared by stream_open(), which would prevent locking of
f_pos_lock.

Prior to commit 7de64d521bf9 ("fuse: break up fuse_open_common()")
FOPEN_STREAM on a directory would cause stream_open() to be called.
After this commit this is not done anymore, so f_pos_lock will always
be locked.

Commit 670d21c6e17f6 ("fuse: remove reliance on bdi congestion") change how
congestion_threshold is used and lock in
fuse_conn_congestion_threshold_write is not needed anymore.
1. Access to supe_block is removed along with removing of bdi congestion.
Then down_read(&amp;fc-&gt;killsb) which protecting access to super_block is no
needed.
2. Compare num_background and congestion_threshold without holding
bg_lock. Then there is no need to hold bg_lock to update
congestion_threshold.

<title>fuse: Fix missing FOLL_PIN for direct-io</title>

Our user space filesystem relies on fuse to provide POSIX interface.
In our test, a known string is written into a file and the content
is read back later to verify correct data returned. We observed wrong
data returned in read buffer in rare cases although correct data are
stored in our filesystem.

Fuse kernel module calls iov_iter_get_pages2() to get the physical
pages of the user-space read buffer passed in read(). The pages are
not pinned to avoid page migration. When page migration occurs, the
consequence are two-folds.

1) Applications do not receive correct data in read buffer.
2) fuse kernel writes data into a wrong place.

Using iov_iter_extract_pages() to pin pages fixes the issue in our
test.

An auxiliary variable "struct page **pt_pages" is used in the patch
to prepare the 2nd parameter for iov_iter_extract_pages() since
iov_iter_get_pages2() uses a different type for the 2nd parameter.

[SzM] add iov_iter_extract_will_pin(ii) and unpin only if true.

FUSE remote locking code paths never add any locking state to
inode-&gt;i_flctx, so the locks_remove_posix() function called on
file close will return without calling fuse_setlk().

Therefore, as the if statement to be removed in this commit will
always be false, remove it for clearness.

Due to the fact that fuse does not count the write IO of processes in the
direct and writethrough write modes, user processes cannot track
write_bytes through the “/proc/[pid]/io” path. For example, the system
tool iotop cannot count the write operations of the corresponding process.

Some FUSE daemons want to know if the received request is a resend
request. The high bit of the fuse request ID is utilized for indicating
this, enabling the receiver to perform appropriate handling.

The init flag "FUSE_HAS_RESEND" is added to indicate this feature.

<title>fuse: Introduce a new notification type for resend pending requests</title>

<content type='text'>
When a FUSE daemon panics and failover, we aim to minimize the impact on
applications by reusing the existing FUSE connection. During this process,
another daemon is employed to preserve the FUSE connection's file
descriptor. The new started FUSE Daemon will takeover the fd and continue
to provide service.

However, it is possible for some inflight requests to be lost and never
returned. As a result, applications awaiting replies would become stuck
forever. To address this, we can resend these pending requests to the
new started FUSE daemon.

This patch introduces a new notification type "FUSE_NOTIFY_RESEND", which
can trigger resending of the pending requests, ensuring they are properly
processed again.
