Pull vfs casefolding updates from Christian Brauner: "This exposes the case folding behavior of local filesystems so that file servers - nfsd, ksmbd, and user space file servers - can report the actual behavior to clients instead of guessing. Filesystems report case-insensitive and case-nonpreserving behavior via new file_kattr flags in their fileattr_get implementations. fat, exfat, ntfs3, hfs, hfsplus, xfs, cifs, nfs, vboxsf, and isofs are wired up. Local filesystems that are not explicitly handled default to the usual POSIX behavior of case-sensitive and case-preserving. nfsd uses this to report case folding via NFSv3 PATHCONF and to implement the NFSv4 FATTR4_CASE_INSENSITIVE and FATTR4_CASE_PRESERVING attributes - both have been part of the NFS protocols for decades to support clients on non-POSIX systems - and ksmbd reports it via FS_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION. Exposing the information through the fileattr uapi covers user space file servers. The immediate motivation is interoperability: Windows NFS clients hard-require servers to report case-insensitivity for Win32 applications to work correctly, and a client that knows the server is case-insensitive can avoid issuing multiple LOOKUP/READDIR requests searching for case variants. The Linux NFS client already grew support for case-insensitive shares years ago in support of the Hammerspace NFS server - negative dentry caching must be disabled (a lookup for "FILE.TXT" failing must not cache a negative entry when "file.txt" exists) and directory change invalidation must drop cached case-folded name variants. Such servers often operate in multi-protocol environments where a single file service instance caters to both NFS and SMB clients, and nfsd needs to report case folding properly to participate as a first-class citizen there. A follow-up series brings fixes for the initial work: the nfsd case-info probe now uses kernel credentials, maps -ESTALE to NFS3ERR_STALE, and has its cost capped across READDIR entries; the nfs client avoids transiently zeroed case capability bits during the probe and skips the pathconf probe when neither field is consumed; the FS_CASEFOLD_FL semantics are clarified in the UAPI header; and the tools UAPI headers are synced" * tag 'vfs-7.2-rc1.casefold' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (22 commits) nfsd: Cap case-folding probe cost across READDIR entries nfsd: Map -ESTALE from case probe to NFS3ERR_STALE nfsd: Use kernel credentials for case-info probe fs: Clarify FS_CASEFOLD_FL semantics in UAPI header nfs: Skip pathconf probe when neither field is consumed nfs: Avoid transient zeroed case capability bits during probe tools headers UAPI: Sync case-sensitivity flags from linux/fs.h ksmbd: Report filesystem case sensitivity via FS_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION nfsd: Implement NFSv4 FATTR4_CASE_INSENSITIVE and FATTR4_CASE_PRESERVING nfsd: Report export case-folding via NFSv3 PATHCONF isofs: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity vboxsf: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity nfs: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity cifs: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity xfs: Report case sensitivity in fileattr_get hfsplus: Report case sensitivity in fileattr_get hfs: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity ntfs3: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity exfat: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity fat: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity ...

tools headers UAPI: Sync case-sensitivity flags from linux/fs.h

2026-05-15T15:49:22+00:00

The case-sensitivity series adds FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD and FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING to include/uapi/linux/fs.h, and tools/perf/check-headers.sh would warn about the resulting drift in the perf beauty copy. Pick up only those two flags (and the surrounding comment block) so the series does not introduce new drift of its own. This is not a full sync. The perf copy is also missing the FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN block added by commit 1f662195dbc0 ("fs: add generic FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN definitions"). Because tools/perf/check-headers.sh emits a single warning per file, that warning will remain active until the older drift is picked up too; closing it is left to a separate sync outside this series.

prctl: cfi: change the branch landing pad prctl()s to be more descriptive

2026-04-05T00:40:58+00:00

Per Linus' comments requesting the replacement of "INDIR_BR_LP" in the indirect branch tracking prctl()s with something more readable, and suggesting the use of the speculation control prctl()s as an exemplar, reimplement the prctl()s and related constants that control per-task forward-edge control flow integrity. This primarily involves two changes. First, the prctls are restructured to resemble the style of the speculative execution workaround control prctls PR_{GET,SET}_SPECULATION_CTRL, to make them easier to extend in the future. Second, the "indir_br_lp" abbrevation is expanded to "branch_landing_pads" to be less telegraphic. The kselftest and documentation is adjusted accordingly.
