 "Jeff Layton contributed a scalability improvement to NFSD's NFSv4
  backchannel session implementation. This improvement is intended to
  increase the rate at which NFSD can safely recall NFSv4 delegations
  from clients, to avoid the need to revoke them. Revoking requires a
  slow state recovery process.

  A wide variety of bug fixes and other incremental improvements make up
  the bulk of commits in this series. As always I am grateful to the
  NFSD contributors, reviewers, testers, and bug reporters who
  participated during this cycle"

<title>lockd: Remove unneeded initialization of file_lock::c.flc_flags</title>

Since commit 75c7940d2a86 ("lockd: set missing fl_flags field when
retrieving args"), nlmsvc_retrieve_args() initializes the flc_flags
field. svcxdr_decode_lock() no longer needs to do this.

This clean up removes one dependency on the nlm_lock:fl field. No
behavior change is expected.

Analysis:

svcxdr_decode_lock() is called by:

nlm4svc_decode_testargs()
nlm4svc_decode_lockargs()
nlm4svc_decode_cancargs()
nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs()

nlm4svc_decode_testargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_TEST and NLMPROC4_TEST_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
- NLMPROC4_GRANTED and NLMPROC4_GRANTED_MSG, which don't pass the
  lock's file_lock to the generic lock API

nlm4svc_decode_lockargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_LOCK and NLM4PROC4_LOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
- NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLM4PROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
- NLMPROC4_NM_LOCK, which calls nlmsvc_retrieve_args()

nlm4svc_decode_cancargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_CANCEL and NLMPROC4_CANCEL_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()

nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLMPROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()

All callers except GRANTED/GRANTED_MSG eventually call
nlmsvc_retrieve_args() before using nlm_lock::fl.c.flc_flags. Thus
this change is safe.

NLMv2 is completely different protocol than NLMv1 and NLMv3, and in
original Sun implementation is used for RPC loopback callbacks from statd
to lockd services. Linux does not use nor does not implement NLMv2.

Hence, NLMv3 is not backward compatible with NLMv2. But NLMv3 is backward
compatible with NLMv1. Fix comment.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks

     Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
     locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
     that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
     NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients

     This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
     still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock

     It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
     kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
     because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
     only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
     lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
     their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
     not define its own lock() file operation

     However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
     handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
     signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
     for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
     now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
     exported over NFS

     Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem
     and grooms the way for future uses by both filesystems and lock
     managers alike

   - Add a sysctl to delete the dentry when a file is removed instead of
     making it a negative dentry

     Commit 681ce8623567 ("vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
     deleting a file") introduced an unconditional deletion of the
     associated dentry when a file is removed. However, this led to
     performance regressions in specific benchmarks, such as
     ilebench.sum_operations/s, prompting a revert in commit
     4a4be1ad3a6e ("Revert "vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
     deleting a file""). This reintroduces the concept conditionally
     through a sysctl

   - Expand the statmount() system call:

       * Report the filesystem subtype in a new fs_subtype field to
         e.g., report fuse filesystem subtypes

       * Report the superblock source in a new sb_source field

       * Add a new way to return filesystem specific mount options in an
         option array that returns filesystem specific mount options
         separated by zero bytes and unescaped. This allows caller's to
         retrieve filesystem specific mount options and immediately pass
         them to e.g., fsconfig() without having to unescape or split
         them

       * Report security (LSM) specific mount options in a separate
         security option array. We don't lump them together with
         filesystem specific mount options as security mount options are
         generic and most users aren't interested in them

         The format is the same as for the filesystem specific mount
         option array

   - Support relative paths in fsconfig()'s FSCONFIG_SET_STRING command

   - Optimize acl_permission_check() to avoid costly {g,u}id ownership
     checks if possible

   - Use smp_mb__after_spinlock() to avoid full smp_mb() in evict()

   - Add synchronous wakeup support for ep_poll_callback.

     Currently, epoll only uses wake_up() to wake up task. But sometimes
     there are epoll users which want to use the synchronous wakeup flag
     to give a hint to the scheduler, e.g., the Android binder driver.
     So add a wake_up_sync() define, and use wake_up_sync() when sync is
     true in ep_poll_callback()

  Fixes:

   - Fix kernel documentation for inode_insert5() and iget5_locked()

   - Annotate racy epoll check on file-&gt;f_ep

   - Make F_DUPFD_QUERY associative

   - Avoid filename buffer overrun in initramfs

   - Don't let statmount() return empty strings

   - Add a cond_resched() to dump_user_range() to avoid hogging the CPU

   - Don't query the device logical blocksize multiple times for hfsplus

   - Make filemap_read() check that the offset is positive or zero

  Cleanups:

   - Various typo fixes

   - Cleanup wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode()

   - Add __releases annotation to wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode()

   - Add hugetlbfs tracepoints

   - Fix various vfs kernel doc parameters

   - Remove obsolete TODO comment from io_cancel()

   - Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio

   - Fix comments for BANDWITH_INTERVAL and wb_domain_writeout_add()

   - Reorder struct posix_acl to save 8 bytes

   - Annotate struct posix_acl with __counted_by()

   - Replace one-element array with flexible array member in freevxfs

   - Use idiomatic atomic64_inc_return() in alloc_mnt_ns()"

  statmount: retrieve security mount options

         filesystem specific mount options as security mount options are
         generic and most users aren't interested in them

         The format is the same as for the filesystem specific mount
         option array

   - Support relative paths in fsconfig()'s FSCONFIG_SET_STRING command

   - Optimize acl_permission_check() to avoid costly {g,u}id ownership
     checks if possible

   - Use smp_mb__after_spinlock() to avoid full smp_mb() in evict()

   - Add synchronous wakeup support for ep_poll_callback.

     Currently, epoll only uses wake_up() to wake up task. But sometimes
     there are epoll users which want to use the synchronous wakeup flag
     to give a hint to the scheduler, e.g., the Android binder driver.
     So add a wake_up_sync() define, and use wake_up_sync() when sync is
     true in ep_poll_callback()

  Fixes:

   - Fix kernel documentation for inode_insert5() and iget5_locked()

   - Annotate racy epoll check on file-&gt;f_ep

   - Make F_DUPFD_QUERY associative

   - Avoid filename buffer overrun in initramfs

   - Don't let statmount() return empty strings

   - Add a cond_resched() to dump_user_range() to avoid hogging the CPU

   - Don't query the device logical blocksize multiple times for hfsplus

   - Make filemap_read() check that the offset is positive or zero

  Cleanups:

   - Various typo fixes

   - Cleanup wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode()

   - Add __releases annotation to wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode()

   - Add hugetlbfs tracepoints

   - Fix various vfs kernel doc parameters

   - Remove obsolete TODO comment from io_cancel()

   - Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio

   - Fix comments for BANDWITH_INTERVAL and wb_domain_writeout_add()

   - Reorder struct posix_acl to save 8 bytes

   - Annotate struct posix_acl with __counted_by()

   - Replace one-element array with flexible array member in freevxfs

   - Use idiomatic atomic64_inc_return() in alloc_mnt_ns()"

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

Benjamin Coddington &lt;bcodding@redhat.com&gt; says:

Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their locking more
robust when exported over NFS.  Unfortunately, part of that work caused both
NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send
lock notifications to clients.

This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will still
poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock, but now that I've
noticed it I can't help but try to fix it because there are big advantages
for setups that might depend on timely lock notifications, and we've
supported that as a feature for a long time.

Its important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their kernel threads
inside filesystem's file_lock implementations because that can produce
deadlocks.  We used to make sure of this by only trusting that
posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking lock calls asynchronously,
so the lock managers would only setup their file_lock requests for async
callbacks if the filesystem did not define its own lock() file operation.

However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started signalling this
behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check for also trusting
posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so now most filesystems no
longer produce lock notifications when exported over NFS.

I tried to fix this by simply including the old check for lock(), but the
resulting include mess and layering violations was more than I could accept.
There's a much cleaner way presented here using an fop_flag, which while
potentially flag-greedy, greatly simplifies the problem and grooms the
way for future uses by both filesystems and lock managers alike.

* patches from https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1726083391.git.bcodding@redhat.com:
  exportfs: Remove EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK
  NLM/NFSD: Fix lock notifications for async-capable filesystems
  gfs2/ocfs2: set FOP_ASYNC_LOCK
  fs: Introduce FOP_ASYNC_LOCK
  NFS: trace: show TIMEDOUT instead of 0x6e
  nfsd: use system_unbound_wq for nfsd_file_gc_worker()
  nfsd: count nfsd_file allocations
  nfsd: fix refcount leak when file is unhashed after being found
  nfsd: remove unneeded EEXIST error check in nfsd_do_file_acquire
  nfsd: add list_head nf_gc to struct nfsd_file

Instead of checking just the exportfs flag, use the new
locks_can_async_lock() helper which allows NLM and NFSD to once again
support lock notifications for all filesystems which use posix_lock_file().
