orangefs_dir_fill() doesn't use oi and dentry arguments at all
do_readdir() gets dentry, uses only dentry-&gt;d_inode; it also
gets oi, which is ORANGEFS_I(dentry-&gt;d_inode) (i.e. -&gt;d_inode -
constant offset).
orangefs_dir_mode() gets dentry and oi, uses only to pass those
to do_readdir().
orangefs_dir_iterate() uses dentry and oi only to pass those to
orangefs_dir_fill() and orangefs_dir_more().

The only thing it really needs is -&gt;d_inode; moreover, that's
better expressed as file_inode(file) - no need to go through
-&gt;f_path.dentry-&gt;d_inode.

Pull vfs inode time accessor updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This finishes the conversion of all inode time fields to accessor
  functions as discussed on list. Changing timestamps manually as we
  used to do before is error prone. Using accessors function makes this
  robust.

  It does not contain the switch of the time fields to discrete 64 bit
  integers to replace struct timespec and free up space in struct inode.
  But after this, the switch can be trivially made and the patch should
  only affect the vfs if we decide to do it"

Now that all of the update_time operations are prepared for it, we can
drop the timespec64 argument from the update_time operation. Do that and
remove it from some associated functions like inode_update_time and
inode_needs_update_time.

<title>fs: drop the timespec64 arg from generic_update_time</title>

<id>541d4c798a598854fcce7326d947cbcbd35701d6</id>
<content type='text'>
In future patches we're going to change how the ctime is updated
to keep track of when it has been queried. The way that the update_time
operation works (and a lot of its callers) make this difficult, since
they grab a timestamp early and then pass it down to eventually be
copied into the inode.

All of the existing update_time callers pass in the result of
current_time() in some fashion. Drop the "time" parameter from
generic_update_time, and rework it to fetch its own timestamp.

This change means that an update_time could fetch a different timestamp
than was seen in inode_needs_update_time. update_time is only ever
called with one of two flag combinations: Either S_ATIME is set, or
S_MTIME|S_CTIME|S_VERSION are set.

With this change we now treat the flags argument as an indicator that
some value needed to be updated when last checked, rather than an
indication to update specific timestamps.

Rework the logic for updating the timestamps and put it in a new
inode_update_timestamps helper that other update_time routines can use.
S_ATIME is as treated as we always have, but if any of the other three
are set, then we attempt to update all three.

Also, some callers of generic_update_time need to know what timestamps
were actually updated. Change it to return an S_* flag mask to indicate
that and rework the callers to expect it.

<title>fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattr</title>

generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately
today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute
(STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported,
and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain
timestamps.

Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers
just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers
(e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

Provide a splice_read wrapper for ocfs2.  This increments the read stats
and then locks the inode across the call to filemap_splice_read() and a
revalidation of the mapping.  Splicing from direct I/O is done by the
caller.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Nick Piggin's "shoot lazy tlbs" series, to improve the peformance of
   switching from a user process to a kernel thread.

 - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang, Zhang Peng and Pankaj
   Raghav.

 - zsmalloc performance improvements from Sergey Senozhatsky.

 - Yue Zhao has found and fixed some data race issues around the
   alteration of memcg userspace tunables.

 - VFS rationalizations from Christoph Hellwig:
     - removal of most of the callers of write_one_page()
     - make __filemap_get_folio()'s return value more useful

 - Luis Chamberlain has changed tmpfs so it no longer requires swap
   backing. Use `mount -o noswap'.

 - Qi Zheng has made the slab shrinkers operate locklessly, providing
   some scalability benefits.

 - Keith Busch has improved dmapool's performance, making part of its
   operations O(1) rather than O(n).

 - Peter Xu adds the UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED feature to userfaultd,
   permitting userspace to wr-protect anon memory unpopulated ptes.

 - Kirill Shutemov has changed MAX_ORDER's meaning to be inclusive
   rather than exclusive, and has fixed a bunch of errors which were
   caused by its unintuitive meaning.

 - Axel Rasmussen give userfaultfd the UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP feature,
   which causes minor faults to install a write-protected pte.

   cleanups to the kernel code and improvements to our userspace test
   harness.

 - Lorenzo has also contributed further cleanups of vma_merge().

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Nick Piggin's "shoot lazy tlbs" series, to improve the peformance of
   switching from a user process to a kernel thread.

 - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang, Zhang Peng and Pankaj
   Raghav.

 - zsmalloc performance improvements from Sergey Senozhatsky.

 - Yue Zhao has found and fixed some data race issues around the
   alteration of memcg userspace tunables.

 - VFS rationalizations from Christoph Hellwig:
     - removal of most of the callers of write_one_page()
     - make __filemap_get_folio()'s return value more useful

 - Luis Chamberlain has changed tmpfs so it no longer requires swap
   backing. Use `mount -o noswap'.

 - Qi Zheng has made the slab shrinkers operate locklessly, providing
   some scalability benefits.

 - Keith Busch has improved dmapool's performance, making part of its
   operations O(1) rather than O(n).

 - Peter Xu adds the UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED feature to userfaultd,
   permitting userspace to wr-protect anon memory unpopulated ptes.

 - Kirill Shutemov has changed MAX_ORDER's meaning to be inclusive
   rather than exclusive, and has fixed a bunch of errors which were
   caused by its unintuitive meaning.
