Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
 "Highlights:

   - Add a new knfsd file cache, so that we don't have to open and close
     on each (NFSv2/v3) READ or WRITE. This can speed up read and write
     in some cases. It also replaces our readahead cache.

   - Prevent silent data loss on write errors, by treating write errors
     like server reboots for the purposes of write caching, thus forcing
     clients to resend their writes.

   - Tweak the code that allocates sessions to be more forgiving, so
     that NFSv4.1 mounts are less likely to hang when a server already
     has a lot of clients.

   - Eliminate an arbitrary limit on NFSv4 ACL sizes; they should now be
     limited only by the backend filesystem and the maximum RPC size.

   - Allow the server to enforce use of the correct kerberos credentials
     when a client reclaims state after a reboot.

  And some miscellaneous smaller bugfixes and cleanup"

Pull fuse virtio-fs support from Miklos Szeredi:
 "Virtio-fs allows exporting directory trees on the host and mounting
  them in guest(s).

  This isn't actually a new filesystem, but a glue layer between the
  fuse filesystem and a virtio based back-end.

  It's similar in functionality to the existing virtio-9p solution, but
  significantly faster in benchmarks and has better POSIX compliance.
  Further permformance improvements can be achieved by sharing the page
  cache between host and guest, allowing for faster I/O and reduced
  memory use.

  Kata Containers have been including the out-of-tree virtio-fs (with
  the shared page cache patches as well) since version 1.7 as an
  experimental feature. They have been active in development and plan to
  switch from virtio-9p to virtio-fs as their default solution. There
  has been interest from other sources as well.

  The userspace infrastructure is slated to be merged into qemu once the
  kernel part hits mainline.

  This was developed by Vivek Goyal, Dave Gilbert and Stefan Hajnoczi"

<id>2df4de1681767df900e15e34195bbf7dc1b23e06</id>
<content type='text'>
Commit 415606588c61 ("PTP: introduce new versions of IOCTLs",
2019-09-13) introduced new versions of the PTP ioctls which actually
validate that the flags are acceptable values.

As part of this, it cleared the flags value using a bitwise
and+negation, in an attempt to prevent the old ioctl from accidentally
enabling new features.

This is incorrect for a couple of reasons. First, it results in
accidentally preventing previously working flags on the request ioctl.
By clearing the "valid" flags, we now no longer allow setting the
enable, rising edge, or falling edge flags.

Second, if we add new additional flags in the future, they must not be
set by the old ioctl. (Since the flag wasn't checked before, we could
potentially break userspace programs which sent garbage flag data.

The correct way to resolve this is to check for and clear all but the
originally valid flags.

Create defines indicating which flags are correctly checked and
interpreted by the original ioctls. Use these to clear any bits which
will not be correctly interpreted by the original ioctls.

In the future, new flags must be added to the VALID_FLAGS macros, but
*not* to the V1_VALID_FLAGS macros. In this way, new features may be
exposed over the v2 ioctls, but without breaking previous userspace
which happened to not clear the flags value properly. The old ioctl will
continue to behave the same way, while the new ioctl gains the benefit
of using the flags fields.

Commit 415606588c61 ("PTP: introduce new versions of IOCTLs",
2019-09-13) introduced new versions of the PTP ioctls which actually
validate that the flags are acceptable values.

As part of this, it cleared the flags value using a bitwise
and+negation, in an attempt to prevent the old ioctl from accidentally
enabling new features.

This is incorrect for a couple of reasons. First, it results in
accidentally preventing previously working flags on the request ioctl.
By clearing the "valid" flags, we now no longer allow setting the
enable, rising edge, or falling edge flags.

Second, if we add new additional flags in the future, they must not be
set by the old ioctl. (Since the flag wasn't checked before, we could
potentially break userspace programs which sent garbage flag data.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:

1) Add NFT_CHAIN_POLICY_UNSET to replace hardcoded -1 to
   specify that the chain policy is unset. The chain policy
   field is actually defined as an 8-bit unsigned integer.

2) Remove always true condition reported by smatch in
   chain policy check.

3) Fix element lookup on dynamic sets, from Florian Westphal.

4) Use __u8 in ebtables uapi header, from Masahiro Yamada.

5) Bogus EBUSY when removing flowtable after chain flush,
   from Laura Garcia Liebana.

Add a header include guard just in case.

My motivation is to allow Kbuild to detect missing include guard:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11063011/

Before I enable this checker I want to fix as many headers as possible.

Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Continue separating the transport (user/kernel communication) and the
   filesystem layers of fuse. Getting rid of most layering violations
   will allow for easier cleanup and optimization later on.

 - Prepare for the addition of the virtio-fs filesystem. The actual
   filesystem will be introduced by a separate pull request.

 - Convert to new mount API.

 - Various fixes, optimizations and cleanups.
