Pull 9p updates from Eric Van Hensbergen:
"This includes a number of patches that didn't quite make the cut last
merge window while we addressed some outstanding issues and review
comments. It includes some new caching modes for those that only want
readahead caches and reworks how we do writeback caching so we are not
keeping extra references around which both causes performance problems
and uses lots of additional resources on the server.
It also includes a new flag to force disabling of xattrs which can
also cause major performance issues, particularly if the underlying
filesystem on the server doesn't support them.
Finally it adds a couple of additional mount options to better support
directio and enabling caches when the server doesn't support
qid.version.
There was one late-breaking bug report that has also been included as
its own patch where I forgot to propagate an embarassing bit-logic fix
to the various variations of open"

Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening
in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and
"struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these
changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more

The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most
of them actually did so.

"In this cycle, sub-page block support for uncompressed files is

4k-block images on arm64 with 16/64k pages. In addition, end users

Besides, long xattr name prefix support is also introduced in this

xattrs). It's useful for erofs + overlayfs combination (like Composefs
model): the image size is reduced by ~14% and runtime performance is

Set the block size to that specified in on-disk superblock.
Also remove the hard constraint of PAGE_SIZE block size for the
uncompressed device backend. This constraint is temporarily remained
for compressed device and fscache backend, as there is more work needed
to handle the condition where the block size is not equal to PAGE_SIZE.
It is worth noting that the on-disk block size is read prior to
erofs_superblock_csum_verify(), as the read block size is needed in the
latter.
Besides, later we are going to make erofs refer to tar data blobs (which
is 512-byte aligned) for OCI containers, where the block size is 512
bytes. In this case, the 512-byte block size may not be adequate for a
directory to contain enough dirents. To fix this, we are also going to
introduce directory block size independent on the block size.
Due to we have already supported block size smaller than PAGE_SIZE now,
disable all these images with such separated directory block size until
we supported this feature later.

Directory tree repairs are the least complete part of online fsck, due
to the lack of directory parent pointers. However, even without that
feature, we can still make some corrections to the directory tree -- we

as xfs_repair does now.

File-based metadata (such as xattrs and directories) can be extremely
large. To reduce the memory requirements and maximize code reuse, it is
very convenient to create a temporary file, use the regular dir/attr
code to store salvaged information, and then atomically swap the extents
between the file being repaired and the temporary file. Record the high
level concepts behind how temporary files and atomic content swapping
should work, and then present some case studies of what the actual
repair functions do.

Certain parts of the online fsck code need to scan every file in the

while this happens, which means that we need to be clever in allowing

Writes to an XFS filesystem employ an eventual consistency update model
to break up complex multistep metadata updates into small chained
transactions. This is generally good for performance and scalability
because XFS doesn't need to prepare for enormous transactions, but it
also means that online fsck must be careful not to attempt a fsck action
unless it can be shown that there are no other threads processing a
transaction chain. This part of the design documentation covers the
thinking behind the consistency model and how scrub deals with it.

When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not
easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption. You have to parse
dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some
time. In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM
status.
In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause
issues for way too long. So I think it makes sense to provide a
monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them.
This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts.

We need the fixes in here for testing, as well as the driver core
changes for documentation updates to build on.

In doing experimentations with shmem having the option to avoid swap
becomes a useful mechanism. One of the *raves* about brd over shmem is
you can avoid swap, but that's not really a good reason to use brd if we
can instead use shmem. Using brd has its own good reasons to exist, but
just because "tmpfs" doesn't let you do that is not a great reason to
avoid it if we can easily add support for it.
I don't add support for reconfiguring incompatible options, but if we
really wanted to we can add support for that.
To avoid swap we use mapping_set_unevictable() upon inode creation, and
put a WARN_ON_ONCE() stop-gap on writepages() for reclaim.

Currently, this option does not work properly. Its use leads to unstable results.
If we figure out how to implement it without errors, we will add it later.

xattr creates a lot of additional messages for 9p in
the current implementation. This allows users to
conditionalize xattr support on 9p mount if they
are on a connection with bad latency. Using this
flag is also useful when debugging other aspects
of 9p as it reduces the noise in the trace files.

This isn't ever used by VFS now, and it couldn't even work. Any FS that
uses the SECURITY_LSM_NATIVE_LABELS flag needs to also process the
value returned back from the LSM, so it needs to do its
security_sb_set_mnt_opts() call on its own anyway.

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, we've got a huge number of patches that improve code
readability along with minor bug fixes, while we've mainly fixed some
critical issues in recently-added per-block age-based extent_cache,
atomic write support, and some folio cases.
Enhancements:
- add sysfs nodes to set last_age_weight and manage
discard_io_aware_gran
- show ipu policy in debugfs
- reduce stack memory cost by using bitfield in struct f2fs_io_info
- introduce trace_f2fs_replace_atomic_write_block
- enhance iostat support and adds flush commands
Bug fixes:
- revert "f2fs: truncate blocks in batch in __complete_revoke_list()"
- fix kernel crash on the atomic write abort flow
- call clear_page_private_reference in .{release,invalid}_folio
- support .migrate_folio for compressed inode
- fix cgroup writeback accounting with fs-layer encryption
- retry to update the inode page given data corruption
- fix kernel crash due to NULL io->bio
- fix some bugs in per-block age-based extent_cache:
- wrong calculation of block age
- update age extent in f2fs_do_zero_range()
- update age extent correctly during truncation"
