git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner: "Fixes: - aio: a keyed poll completion on an epoll instance could recurse into the same epoll waitqueue lock when the result eventfd is watched by that very instance. An unprivileged process could make a CPU spin on the recursive lock. eventfd-backed poll completions are always deferred now. - fsnotify_inoderemove() is only called once the inode is really dead, no nlink and no aliases, and open_by_handle_at() can't add an alias to a dead inode anymore. The race could crash fsnotify or lose inode mark notifications. - devtmpfs: the conversion of the public instance to ->get_tree() broke reconfiguring the shared superblock's options on later mounts which made the boot time defaults permanent. A reconfigure context is kept in fc->fs_private so the parse ops can forward options to the underlying filesystem. - ufs truncated the 64-bit directory size to an unsigned int in ufs_last_byte(). A crafted image with a 4 GiB directory produced an out-of-folio read in ufs_find_entry() and, with CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE, a write into an adjacent page. - devpts rejects max=0 instead of silently lifting the per-instance pty limit. The value wrapped into ida_alloc_max() and became unlimited. - fs_pin publishes pins with the rcu list helpers so the kill paths reading the lists under rcu see the initialization. - dentry_kill() reports a Tasks-RCU quiescent state. Its cond_resched() is the only reschedule point on the dentry teardown path and cond_resched() isn't a quiescent state for Tasks-RCU, so Meta kept seeing rcu_tasks stalls in btrfs subvolume deletion. - writeback sizes foreign flushes by the target wb's dirty pages instead of the memcg-wide count which over or undersized a single bdi flush. - nfsd READ emitted two fsnotify access events on the iterator path since vfs_iocb_iter_read() already sends one. A READ on a krb5i or krb5p mount showed up twice in inotify. - pipe and splice pass a poll key when waking readers and writers so epoll, poll() and select() waiters only wake for the event they asked for. - the iso8859-14 Unicode to charset tables had page01 duplicated as page1e so 29 code points mapped to the wrong bytes and 22 that aren't in the charset were accepted. - orangefs doesn't wait for an unmount service operation that never returns on system shutdown and uses ssize_t for strscpy() errors. - __register_chrdev() checks the kobject_set_name() return value. - selftest fixes: the openat2 tests hardcoded O_LARGEFILE to 0x8000 which is O_NOFOLLOW on powerpc, resolve_test makes /tmp a mountpoint so RESOLVE_NO_XDEV has a boundary to trip over, file_stressor moves into its own directory with a 30 minute timeout, the kernfs listxattr test skips when SELinux exposes security.selinux, the namespaces active reference tests wait for the thread via a PIDFD_THREAD pidfd since pthread_join() returns before exit_nsproxy_namespaces(), the idmapped_tmpfile test chowns its directory into the mapped range, the clone3 CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND test adds CLONE_VM so it fails for the intended reason, the pidfd PPID error message prints the values it compares and fscontext_ns gets a .gitignore. Cleanups: - vmcore prints the release of the crashed kernel from the VMCOREINFO note so a kdump that dies before the dump lands still says which kernel it was for. - initramfs allocates hardlink hash entries with the validated cpio name length instead of PATH_MAX, which put every entry in kmalloc-8k. - the unused dax_layout_busy_page() is removed, dax_layout_busy_page_range() becomes static and dax_folio_init() drops a redundant list initialization. - vfs_empty_path() is removed, it has had no callers since getname_maybe_null(). - comment and documentation fixes in aio, bpf_fs_kfuncs, fs-writeback, inode, read_write, squashfs and the vfs.rst copy of struct file_system_type" * tag 'vfs-7.4-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (38 commits) selftests/filesystems: Fix idmapped_tmpfile layer dir ownership selftests/namespaces: Wait for thread exit via pidfd in active-ref tests writeback: size foreign flushes by target wb dirty pages initramfs: Reduce hardlink hash allocation sizes fs: remove unused vfs_empty_path() dcache: report a Tasks-RCU quiescent state in dentry_kill() vmcore: report the release of the crashed kernel splice: pass a poll key when waking pipe readers and writers pipe: pass a poll key when waking writers after a resize orangefs: use ssize_t instead of size_t for error codes... orangefs_super: don't wait on service operation on system shutdown. docs/vfs: Fix the struct file_system_type copy nls: fix the Unicode to charset tables of iso8859-14 selftests/filesystems/openat2: make /tmp a mountpoint inside private namespace selftests/filesystems/openat2: fix O_LARGEFILE definitions for non-arm64 architectures fs: fix misleading comments in read_write.c squashfs: fix inode number description in documentation fs: fix typos in comments fs/dax: Make dax_layout_busy_page_range() static fs/dax: Remove unused dax_layout_busy_page() ...

2026-09-04ufs: use u64 for directory size in ufs_last_byteYANXIN LI
ufs1_read_inode() and ufs2_read_inode() copy the untrusted 64-bit on-disk size into inode->i_size. ufs_last_byte() then truncates that value to an unsigned int before calculating the valid extent of a directory folio. A directory size of exactly 4 GiB is truncated to zero. In ufs_find_entry(), subtracting the requested record length from that zero forms an endpoint almost 4 GiB beyond the mapped folio. A crafted UFS2 image produces: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ufs_find_entry+0x583/0x6e0 [ufs] Read of size 1 ... ufs_find_entry ufs_inode_by_name ufs_lookup __lookup_slow path_lookupat The KASAN classification reflects that the adjacent physical page was free; the source-level operation is an out-of-folio read. A controlled UFS1 test with CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE enabled also made ufs_find_entry() return a directory entry from an adjacent anonymous page. unlink() then passed that pointer to ufs_delete_entry(), which cleared the adjacent page's 3 2-bit d_ino. This write result reproduced three out of three times. UFS normally requires a privileged mount path. A relevant boundary is a privileged automounter or image-processing service handling an attacker-supplied filesystem. The write primitive additionally requires UFS1 to be mounted read-write with CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE enabled; the read is reachable with read-only UFS2. Keep the intermediate size arithmetic at 64 bits so non-final pages are bounded at PAGE_SIZE. With this change, the same controlled tests reach the real on-disk directory entry and produce no adjacent-page write or KASAN report. A reproducer and full validation logs are available on request. The vulnerable helper is present in v7.2-rc3, v7.1, v6.18.38, v6.12.95, v6.6.111, and upstream master at 1229e2e57a5c. Runtime reproduction and fix validation were performed in an x86-64 QEMU guest running v7.2-rc3 with generic KASAN.

2026-08-25ufs: do not treat unreadable directory blocks as emptyAli Ahmet Memis
ufs_empty_dir() scans every directory block to decide whether a directory is empty before rmdir() removes it. When ufs_get_folio() cannot read or validate a block it returns an error pointer, and the loop currently skips that block with continue and keeps scanning the remaining blocks. If none of the readable blocks hold an entry, the function returns 1 and the caller unlinks the directory. A directory whose contents live in a block that cannot be read, for example because of an I/O error or corrupted directory metadata, is therefore seen as empty and removed, losing the entries it still holds. Follow the ext2 behaviour and treat an unreadable block as a reason to consider the directory not empty, so rmdir() fails instead of discarding data that could not be verified.

2026-08-25ufs: validate cylinder group metadata before caching itAli Ahmet Memis
ufs_read_cylinder() copies the cylinder group index and the rotor positions straight from the on-disk group and caches them without any check: ucpi->c_cgx = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_cgx); ucpi->c_rotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_rotor); ucpi->c_frotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_frotor); ucpi->c_irotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_irotor); They are then used as indices during allocation and free: - c_cgx indexes the cylinder summary array as UFS_SB(sb)->fs_cs(ucpi->c_cgx), so a value past s_ncg writes a 32 bit count outside the s_csp allocation. - c_frotor becomes a bitmap scan start, start = c_frotor >> 3, and then length = ((s_fpg + 7) >> 3) - start. A start beyond the block bitmap wraps the unsigned length to a huge value, so ubh_scanc() walks far past the cylinder group buffers. c_irotor drives the inode bitmap the same way. A crafted image can set any of these freely, turning an ordinary allocation into an out of bounds access. Reject a cylinder group whose recorded index does not match the group being read, or whose rotors fall outside the group, before the metadata is cached. Valid filesystems keep cg_cgx equal to the group number and the rotors within the group, so only malformed images are rejected.

2026-08-25ufs: create the root dentry after loading cylinder metadataAli Ahmet Memis
ufs_fill_super() installed sb->s_root before it loaded the cylinder group structures for a writable mount: sb->s_root = d_make_root(inode); ... if (!sb_rdonly(sb)) if (!ufs_read_cylinder_structures(sb)) goto failed; When ufs_read_cylinder_structures() failed, the error path freed the in-core superblock information and set sb->s_fs_info to NULL while sb->s_root stayed installed. get_tree_bdev() then reached deactivate_locked_super(), and because s_root was present, generic_shutdown_super() called sync_filesystem() and the put_super operation. Both dereference UFS_SB(sb), which is now NULL, so a mount that fails only while reading the cylinder groups oopses during teardown. A crafted image whose first cylinder group cannot be read reaches this path. Load the cylinder group metadata first and create the root dentry last, so the superblock is published to the VFS only once it is fully set up. ufs_setup_cstotal() and ufs_read_cylinder_structures() take only the super_block and do not use the root inode, so the reordering is safe.

The open-coded check for a count below zero as the dead marker relies on information the caller should not have. - make put_mnt_ns() leave mounts connected. Destroying a mount namespace disconnected its mounts from their mount points. So a file descriptor still open on the parent of a mount point could be used to peek under it. Locked mounts were already kept connected to prevent exactly that. But a mount is only locked when its tree is copied across a user namespace boundary. So a mount namespace set up by a privileged component had no locked mounts and its mounts were disconnected. Passing UMOUNT_CONNECTED keeps every mount connected and prevents that bug. - vfs_prepare_mode() passes S_IFDIR for directories. I meant to fix that ago but didn't get to it. So now someone finally did it. This kills the exception where the mode could be 0 when a directory was created whereas every other creation operation passed it explicitly already. - move long delayed work for ufs, jffs2, hfsplus, hfs and affs from the per-cpu system_long_wq to the new unbound system_dfl_long_wq.

2026-07-31ufs: Move long delayed work on system_dfl_long_wqMarco Crivellari
Currently the code enqueue work items using {queue|mod}_delayed_work(), using system_long_wq. This workqueue should be used when long works are expected and it is a per-cpu workqueue. The function(s) end up calling __queue_delayed_work(), which set a global timer that could fire anywhere, enqueuing the work where the timer fired. Unbound works could benefit from scheduler task placement, to optimize performance and power consumption. Long work shouldn't stick to a single CPU. Recently, a new unbound workqueue specific for long running work has been added:     c116737e972e ("workqueue: Add system_dfl_long_wq for long unbound works") Since the workqueue work doesn't rely on per-cpu variables, there is no obvious reason that justify the use of a per-cpu workqueue. So change system_long_wq with system_dfl_long_wq so that the work may benefit from scheduler task placement.

2026-03-06treewide: change inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64Jeff Layton
On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems. Change the type of inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to %llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable types. This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for better struct packing on 32-bit.

2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull mmap_prepare updates from Christian Brauner: "Last cycle we introduce f_op->mmap_prepare() in c84bf6dd2b83 ("mm: introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback"). This is preferred to the existing f_op->mmap() hook as it does require a VMA to be established yet, thus allowing the mmap logic to invoke this hook far, far earlier, prior to inserting a VMA into the virtual address space, or performing any other heavy handed operations. This allows for much simpler unwinding on error, and for there to be a single attempt at merging a VMA rather than having to possibly reattempt a merge based on potentially altered VMA state. Far more importantly, it prevents inappropriate manipulation of incompletely initialised VMA state, which is something that has been the cause of bugs and complexity in the past. The intent is to gradually deprecate f_op->mmap, and in that vein this series coverts the majority of file systems to using f_op->mmap_prepare. Prerequisite steps are taken - firstly ensuring all checks for mmap capabilities use the file_has_valid_mmap_hooks() helper rather than directly checking for f_op->mmap (which is now not a valid check) and secondly updating daxdev_mapping_supported() to not require a VMA parameter to allow ext4 and xfs to be converted. Commit bb666b7c2707 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for nested file systems") handles the nasty edge-case of nested file systems like overlayfs, which introduces a compatibility shim to allow f_op->mmap_prepare() to be invoked from an f_op->mmap() callback. This allows for nested filesystems to continue to function correctly with all file systems regardless of which callback is used. Once we finally convert all file systems, this shim can be removed. As a result, ecryptfs, fuse, and overlayfs remain unaltered so they can nest all other file systems. We additionally do not update resctl - as this requires an update to remap_pfn_range() (or an alternative to it) which we defer to a later series, equally we do not update cramfs which needs a mixed mapping insertion with the same issue, nor do we update procfs, hugetlbfs, syfs or kernfs all of which require VMAs for internal state and hooks.

It updates generic_ro_fops which impacts qnx4, cramfs, befs, squashfs, frebxfs, qnx6, efs, romfs, erofs and isofs file systems.

2025-02-27Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *NeilBrown
Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at() calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry before the first mkdir returns. This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the dentry is no longer hashed. This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with the mkdir. To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in. Possible returns are: NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used ERR_PTR() - an error occurred non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of "err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry. Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry: - NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of the name to get inode information. Races could result in this returning something different. Note that this lookup is non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem has no other option. - kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry. The recommendation to use d_drop();d_splice_alias() is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will change this.

For short files (== no indirect blocks needed) UFS allows the last block to be a partial one. That creates some complications for truncation down to "short file" lengths. ufs_trunc_direct() is called when we'd already made sure that new EOF is not in a hole; nothing needs to be done if we are extending the file and in case we are shrinking the file it needs to * shrink or free the old final block. * free all full direct blocks between the new and old EOF. * possibly shrink the new final block. The logics is needlessly complicated by trying to keep all cases handled by the same sequence of operations. if not shrinking nothing to do else if number of full blocks unchanged free the tail of possibly partial last block else free the tail of (currently full) new last block free all present (full) blocks in between free the (possibly partial) old last block is easier to follow than the result of trying to unify these cases.
