Linus Torvalds 5084fdf081 This merge request includes the dax-4.0-iomap-pmd branch which is
needed for both ext4 and xfs dax changes to use iomap for DAX.  It
 also includes the fscrypt branch which is needed for ubifs encryption
 work as well as ext4 encryption and fscrypt cleanups.
 
 Lots of cleanups and bug fixes, especially making sure ext4 is robust
 against maliciously corrupted file systems --- especially maliciously
 corrupted xattr blocks and a maliciously corrupted superblock.  Also
 fix ext4 support for 64k block sizes so it works well on ppcle.  Fixed
 mbcache so we don't miss some common xattr blocks that can be merged.

Linus Torvalds e7aa8c2eb1 These are the documentation changes for 4.10.
It's another busy cycle for the docs tree, as the sphinx conversion
 continues.  Highlights include:
 
  - Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but should be
    more solid now.
 
  - Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx.  Only 27 to go...
    Lots of plain-text files have also been converted and integrated.
 
  - Images in binary formats have been replaced with more source-friendly
    versions.
 
  - Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of various
    files discussed at the kernel summit.
 
  - New documentation for the device_link mechanism.
 
 ...and, of course, lots of typo fixes and small updates.

Andrzej Pietrasiewicz e16769d4bc fs: configfs: don't return anything from drop_link
Documentation/filesystems/configfs/configfs.txt says:

"When unlink(2) is called on the symbolic link, the source item is
notified via the ->drop_link() method.  Like the ->drop_item() method,
this is a void function and cannot return failure."

The ->drop_item() is indeed a void function, the ->drop_link() is
actually not. This, together with the fact that the value of ->drop_link()
is silently ignored suggests, that it is the ->drop_link() return
type that should be corrected and changed to void.

This patch changes drop_link() signature and all its users.

Andy Lutomirski b18cb64ead fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks
This reverts more of:

  b76437579d ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps")

... which was partially reverted by:

  65376df582 ("proc: revert /proc/<pid>/maps [stack:TID] annotation")

Originally, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps was the same as /proc/TID/maps.

In current kernels, /proc/PID/maps (or /proc/TID/maps even for
threads) shows "[stack]" for VMAs in the mm's stack address range.

In contrast, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps uses KSTK_ESP to guess the
target thread's stack's VMA.  This is racy, probably returns garbage
and, on arches with CONFIG_TASK_INFO_IN_THREAD=y, is also crash-prone:
KSTK_ESP is not safe to use on tasks that aren't known to be running
ordinary process-context kernel code.

This patch removes the difference and just shows "[stack]" for VMAs
in the mm's stack range.  This is IMO much more sensible -- the
actual "stack" address really is treated specially by the VM code,
and the current thread stack isn't even well-defined for programs
that frequently switch stacks on their own.

with maintenance operations offloaded to userspace (Douglas Fuller,

 On the filesystem side, we've got patches that improve our handling of
 buffered vs dio write races (Neil Brown) and a few assorted fixes from
 Zheng.  Also included a couple of random cleanups and a minor CRUSH

Andreas Gruenbacher 6c6ef9f26e xattr: Stop calling {get,set,remove}xattr inode operations
All filesystems that support xattrs by now do so via xattr handlers.
They all define sb->s_xattr, and their getxattr, setxattr, and
removexattr inode operations use the generic inode operations.  On
filesystems that don't support xattrs, the xattr inode operations are
all NULL, and sb->s_xattr is also NULL.

This means that we can remove the getxattr, setxattr, and removexattr
inode operations and directly call the generic handlers, or better,
inline expand those handlers into fs/xattr.c.

Filesystems that do not support xattrs on some inodes should clear the
IOP_XATTR i_opflags flag in those inodes.  (Right now, some filesystems
have checks to disable xattrs on some inodes in the ->list, ->get, and
->set xattr handler operations instead.)  The IOP_XATTR flag is
automatically cleared in inodes of filesystems that don't have xattr
support.

In orangefs, symlinks do have a setxattr iop but no getxattr iop.  Add a
check for symlinks to orangefs_inode_getxattr to preserve the current,
weird behavior; that check may not be necessary though.

Linus Torvalds 4c1fad64ef In this round, we've investigated how f2fs deals with errors given by our fault
injection facility. With this, we could fix several corner cases. And, in order
 to improve the performance, we set inline_dentry by default and enhance the
 exisiting discard issue flow. In addition, we added f2fs_migrate_page for better
 memory management.
 
 = Enhancement =
  - set inline_dentry by default
  - improve discard issue flow
  - add more fault injection cases in f2fs
  - allow block preallocation for encrypted files
  - introduce migrate_page callback function
  - avoid truncating the next direct node block at every checkpoint
 
 = Bug fixes =
  - set page flag correctly between write_begin and write_end
  - missing error handling cases detected by fault injection
  - preallocate blocks regarding to 4KB alignement correctly
  - dentry and filename handling of encryption
  - lost xattrs of directories

 "The main things in this update are the iomap-based DAX infrastructure,
  an XFS delalloc rework, and a chunk of fixes to how log recovery
  schedules writeback to prevent spurious corruption detections when
  recovery of certain items was not required.

  The other main chunk of code is some preparation for the upcoming
  reflink functionality. Most of it is generic and cleanups that stand
  alone, but they were ready and reviewed so are in this pull request.

  Speaking of reflink, I'm currently planning to send you another pull
  request next week containing all the new reflink functionality. I'm
  working through a similar process to the last cycle, where I sent the
  reverse mapping code in a separate request because of how large it
  was. The reflink code merge is even bigger than reverse mapping, so
  I'll be doing the same thing again....

   - change of XFS mailing list to linux-xfs@vger.kernel.org

Linus Torvalds 02bafd96f3 This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.
The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work.  Here we
 have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution,
 thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser.
 
 I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the old
 device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book.  Both are meant to show
 how we can integrate together our existing documentation into a more
 coherent and accessible whole.  It involves moving some stuff around and
 formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it.  The good news
 is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files are *almost* in RST
 format already; the amount of messing around required is minimal.
 
 And, of course, there's the usual set of updates, typo fixes, and more.

Jan Kara 31051c85b5 fs: Give dentry to inode_change_ok() instead of inode
inode_change_ok() will be resposible for clearing capabilities and IMA
extended attributes and as such will need dentry. Give it as an argument
to inode_change_ok() instead of an inode. Also rename inode_change_ok()
to setattr_prepare() to better relect that it does also some
modifications in addition to checks.

Shuah Khan 10924bc644 selftests: move dnotify_test from Documentation/filesystems
Move dnotify_test.c, Makefile, and .gitignore from Documentation/filesystems
to selftests/filesystems.

Remove filesystems build target from Documentation/Makefile and update
selftests/filesystems/Makefile to work under selftests. dnotify_test will
not be run as part of selftests suite and will not be included in install
targets. It can be built separately for now.

Ryusuke Konishi e63e88bc53 nilfs2: move ioctl interface and disk layout to uapi separately
The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for
ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user
space programs.

This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the
file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h".  The following minor
changes are accompanied by this migration:

 - nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to
   nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure.
 - inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and
   nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

Linus Torvalds f0c98ebc57 libnvdimm for 4.8
1/ Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing:
    The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
    deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement either
    ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm. ADR
    (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers to the
    memory controller on a power-fail event. Flush addresses are defined in
    ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure:
    "Flush Hint Address Structure". A flush hint is an mmio address that
    when written and fenced assures that all previous posted writes
    targeting a given dimm have been flushed to media.
 
 2/ On-demand ARS (address range scrub):
    Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
    in pmem devices.  When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the media
    to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a re-scrub at
    any time.
 
 3/ Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command format.
 
 4/ Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges.
 
 5/ Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem.
