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.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"New features and improvements for the ext4 file system
- Avoid unnecessary cache invalidation in the extent status cache
(es_cache) when adding extents to be cached in the es_cache and we
are not changing the extent tree
- Add a sysfs parameter, err_report_sec, to control how frequently to
log a warning message that file system inconsistency has been
detected (Previously we logged the warning message every 24 hours)
- Avoid unnecessary forced ordered writes when appending to a file
when delayed allocation is enabled
- Defer splitting unwritten extents to I/O completion to improve
write performance of concurrent direct I/O writes to multiple files
- Refactor and add kunit tests to the extent splitting and conversion
code paths
Various Bug Fixes:
- Fix a panic when the debugging DOUBLE_CHECK macro is defined
- Avoid using fast commit for rare and complex file system operations
to make fast commit easier to reason about. This can also avoid
some corner cases that could result in file system inconsistency if
there is a crash between the fast commit before a subsequent full
commit
- Fix memory leaks in error paths
- Fix a false positive reports caused when running stress tests using
mixed huge-page workloads caused by a race between page migration
and bitmap updates
- Fix a potential recursion into file system reclaim when evicting an
inode when fast commit is enabled

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- The percpu sheaves caching layer was introduced as opt-in in 6.18 and
now we enable it for all caches and remove the previous cpu (partial)
slab caching mechanism.
Besides the lower locking overhead and much more likely fastpath when
freeing, this removes the rather complicated code related to the cpu
slab lockless fastpaths (using this_cpu_try_cmpxchg128/64) and all
its complications for PREEMPT_RT or kmalloc_nolock().
The lockless slab freelist+counters update operation using
try_cmpxchg128/64 remains and is crucial for freeing remote NUMA
objects, and to allow flushing objects from sheaves to slabs mostly
without the node list_lock (Vlastimil Babka)
- Eliminate slabobj_ext metadata overhead when possible. Instead of
using kmalloc() to allocate the array for memcg and/or allocation
profiling tag pointers, use leftover space in a slab or per-object
padding due to alignment (Harry Yoo)

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a mix of VFS cleanups, performance improvements, API
fixes, documentation, and a deprecation notice.
Scalability and performance:
- Rework pid allocation to only take pidmap_lock once instead of
twice during alloc_pid(), improving thread creation/teardown
throughput by 10-16% depending on false-sharing luck. Pad the
namespace refcount to reduce false-sharing
- Track file lock presence via a flag in ->i_opflags instead of
reading ->i_flctx, avoiding false-sharing with ->i_readcount on
open/close hot paths. Measured 4-16% improvement on 24-core
open-in-a-loop benchmarks
- Use a consume fence in locks_inode_context() to match the
store-release/load-consume idiom, eliminating a hardware fence on
some architectures
- Annotate cdev_lock with __cacheline_aligned_in_smp to prevent
false-sharing
- Remove a redundant DCACHE_MANAGED_DENTRY check in
__follow_mount_rcu() that never fires since the caller already
verifies it, eliminating a 100% mispredicted branch
- Fix a 100% mispredicted likely() in devcgroup_inode_permission()
that became wrong after a prior code reorder
Bug fixes and correctness:
- Make insert_inode_locked() wait for inode destruction instead of
skipping, fixing a corner case where two matching inodes could
exist in the hash
- Move f_mode initialization before file_ref_init() in alloc_file()
to respect the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU ordering contract
- Add a WARN_ON_ONCE guard in try_to_free_buffers() for folios with
no buffers attached, preventing a null pointer dereference when
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS is set but no release_folio op exists
- Fix select restart_block to store end_time as timespec64, avoiding
truncation of tv_sec on 32-bit architectures
- Make dump_inode() use get_kernel_nofault() to safely access inode
and superblock fields, matching the dump_mapping() pattern
API modernization:
- Make posix_acl_to_xattr() allocate the buffer internally since
every single caller was doing it anyway. Reduces boilerplate and
unnecessary error checking across ~15 filesystems
- Replace deprecated simple_strtoul() with kstrtoul() for the
ihash_entries, dhash_entries, mhash_entries, and mphash_entries
boot parameters, adding proper error handling
- Convert chardev code to use guard(mutex) and __free(kfree) cleanup
patterns
- Replace min_t() with min() or umin() in VFS code to avoid silently
truncating unsigned long to unsigned int
- Gate LOOKUP_RCU assertions behind CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS since callers
already check the flag
Deprecation:
- Begin deprecating legacy BSD process accounting (acct(2)). The
interface has numerous footguns and better alternatives exist
(eBPF)
Documentation:
- Fix and complete kernel-doc for struct export_operations, removing
duplicated documentation between ReST and source
- Fix kernel-doc warnings for __start_dirop() and ilookup5_nowait()

- Add a kunit test for initramfs cpio handling of entries with

Use the kernel's resizable hash table (rhashtable) to find the
fsverity_info. This way file systems that want to support fsverity don't
have to bloat every inode in the system with an extra pointer. The
trade-off is that looking up the fsverity_info is a bit more expensive
now, but the main operations are still dominated by I/O and hashing
overhead.
The rhashtable implementations requires no external synchronization, and
the _fast versions of the APIs provide the RCU critical sections required
by the implementation. Because struct fsverity_info is only removed on
inode eviction and does not contain a reference count, there is no need
for an extended critical section to grab a reference or validate the
object state. The file open path uses rhashtable_lookup_get_insert_fast,
which can either find an existing object for the hash key or insert a
new one in a single atomic operation, so that concurrent opens never
instantiate duplicate fsverity_info structure. FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY must
already be synchronized by a combination of i_rwsem and file system flags
and uses rhashtable_lookup_insert_fast, which errors out on an existing
object for the hash key as an additional safety check.
Because insertion into the hash table now happens before S_VERITY is set,
fsverity just becomes a barrier and a flag check and doesn't have to look
up the fsverity_info at all, so there is only a single lookup per
->read_folio or ->readahead invocation. For btrfs there is an additional
one for each bio completion, while for ext4 and f2fs the fsverity_info
is stored in the per-I/O context and reused for the completion workqueue.

Convert ext4_inode_cache to use the kmem_cache_args interface and
specify a free pointer offset.
Since ext4_inode_cache uses a constructor, the free pointer would be
placed after the object to prevent overwriting fields used by the
constructor.
However, some fields such as ->i_flags are not used by the constructor
and can safely be repurposed for the free pointer.
Specify the free pointer offset at i_flags to reduce the object size.

min_t(unsigned int, a, b) casts an 'unsigned long' to 'unsigned int'.
Use min(a, b) instead as it promotes any 'unsigned int' to 'unsigned long'
and so cannot discard significant bits.
A couple of places need umin() because of loops like:
nfolios = DIV_ROUND_UP(ret + start, PAGE_SIZE);
for (i = 0; i < nfolios; i++) {
struct folio *folio = page_folio(pages[i]);
...
unsigned int len = umin(ret, PAGE_SIZE - start);
...
ret -= len;
...
}
where the compiler doesn't track things well enough to know that
'ret' is never negative.
The alternate loop:
for (i = 0; ret > 0; i++) {
struct folio *folio = page_folio(pages[i]);
...
unsigned int len = min(ret, PAGE_SIZE - start);
...
ret -= len;
...
}
would be equivalent and doesn't need 'nfolios'.
Most of the 'unsigned long' actually come from PAGE_SIZE.
Detected by an extra check added to min_t().

Since block device (See commit 3c20917120ce ("block/bdev: enable large
folio support for large logical block sizes")) and page cache (See commit
ab95d23bab220ef8 ("filemap: allocate mapping_min_order folios in the page
cache")) has the ability to have a minimum order when allocating folio,
and ext4 has supported large folio in commit 7ac67301e82f ("ext4: enable
large folio for regular file"), now add support for block_size > PAGE_SIZE
in ext4.
set_blocksize() -> bdev_validate_blocksize() already validates the block
size, so ext4_load_super() does not need to perform additional checks.
Here we only need to add the FS_LBS bit to fs_flags.
In addition, block sizes larger than the page size are currently supported
only when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is enabled. To make this explicit,
a blocksize_gt_pagesize entry has been added under /sys/fs/ext4/feature/,
indicating whether bs > ps is supported. This allows mke2fs to check the
interface and determine whether a warning should be issued when formatting
a filesystem with block size larger than the page size.

Supporting a block size greater than the page size (BS > PS) requires
support for large folios. However, several features (e.g., encrypt)
do not yet support large folios.
To prevent conflicts, this patch adds checks at mount time to prohibit
these features from being used when BS > PS. Since these features cannot
be changed on remount, there is no need to check on remount.
This patch adds s_max_folio_order, initialized during mount according to
filesystem features and mount options. If s_max_folio_order is 0, large
folios are disabled.
With this in place, ext4_set_inode_mapping_order() can be simplified by
checking s_max_folio_order, avoiding redundant checks.

ext4_calculate_overhead() used a single page for its bitmap buffer, which
worked fine when PAGE_SIZE >= block size. However, with block size greater
than page size (BS > PS) support, the bitmap can exceed a single page.
To address this, we now use kvmalloc() to allocate memory of the filesystem
block size, to properly support BS > PS.

When jbd2_journal_abort() is called, the provided error code is stored
in the journal superblock. Some existing calls hard-code -EIO even when
the actual failure is not I/O related.
This patch updates those calls to pass more accurate error codes,
allowing the superblock to record the true cause of failure. This helps
improve diagnostics and debugging clarity when analyzing journal aborts.

In the iomap_write_iter(), the iomap buffered write frame does not hold
any locks between querying the inode extent mapping info and performing
page cache writes. As a result, the extent mapping can be changed due to
concurrent I/O in flight. Similarly, in the iomap_writepage_map(), the
write-back process faces a similar problem: concurrent changes can
invalidate the extent mapping before the I/O is submitted.
Therefore, both of these processes must recheck the mapping info after
acquiring the folio lock. To address this, similar to XFS, we propose
introducing an extent sequence number to serve as a validity cookie for
the extent. After commit 24b7a2331fcd ("ext4: clairfy the rules for
modifying extents"), we can ensure the extent information should always
be processed through the extent status tree, and the extent status tree
is always uptodate under i_rwsem or invalidate_lock or folio lock, so
it's safe to introduce this sequence number. The sequence number will be
increased whenever the extent status tree changes, preparing for the
buffered write iomap conversion.
Besides, this mechanism is also applicable for the moving extents case.
In move_extent_per_page(), it also needs to reacquire data_sem and check
the mapping info again under the folio lock.

Pull vfs inode updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a series I originally wrote and that Eric brought over
the finish line. It moves out the i_crypt_info and i_verity_info
pointers out of 'struct inode' and into the fs-specific part of the
inode.
So now the few filesytems that actually make use of this pay the price
in their own private inode storage instead of forcing it upon every
user of struct inode.
The pointer for the crypt and verity info is simply found by storing
an offset to its address in struct fsverity_operations and struct
fscrypt_operations. This shrinks struct inode by 16 bytes.
I hope to move a lot more out of it in the future so that struct inode
becomes really just about very core stuff that we need, much like
struct dentry and struct file, instead of the dumping ground it has
become over the years.
On top of this are a various changes associated with the ongoing inode
lifetime handling rework that multiple people are pushing forward:
- Stop accessing inode->i_count directly in f2fs and gfs2. They
simply should use the __iget() and iput() helpers
- Make the i_state flags an enum
- Rework the iput() logic
Currently, if we are the last iput, and we have the I_DIRTY_TIME
bit set, we will grab a reference on the inode again and then mark
it dirty and then redo the put. This is to make sure we delay the
time update for as long as possible
We can rework this logic to simply dec i_count if it is not 1, and
if it is do the time update while still holding the i_count
reference
Then we can replace the atomic_dec_and_lock with locking the
->i_lock and doing atomic_dec_and_test, since we did the
atomic_add_unless above
- Add an icount_read() helper and convert everyone that accesses
inode->i_count directly for this purpose to use the helper
- Expand dump_inode() to dump more information about an inode helping
in debugging
- Add some might_sleep() annotations to iput() and associated
helpers"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");

When orphan file feature is enabled, inode can be tracked as orphan
either in the standard orphan list or in the orphan file. The first can
be tested by checking ei->i_orphan list head, the second is recorded by
EXT4_STATE_ORPHAN_FILE inode state flag. There are several places where
we want to check whether inode is tracked as orphan and only some of
them properly check for both possibilities. Luckily the consequences are
mostly minor, the worst that can happen is that we track an inode as
orphan although we don't need to and e2fsck then complains (resulting in
occasional ext4/307 xfstest failures). Fix the problem by introducing a
helper for checking whether an inode is tracked as orphan and use it in
appropriate places.

The implicit __GFP_NOFAIL flag in ext4_sb_bread() was removed in commit
8a83ac54940d ("ext4: call bdev_getblk() from sb_getblk_gfp()"), meaning
the function can now fail under memory pressure.
Most callers of ext4_sb_bread() propagate the error to userspace and do not
remount the filesystem read-only. However, ext4_free_branches() handles
ext4_sb_bread() failure by remounting the filesystem read-only.
This implies that an ext3 filesystem (mounted via the ext4 driver) could be
forcibly remounted read-only due to a transient page allocation failure,
which is unacceptable.
To mitigate this, introduce a new helper function, ext4_sb_bread_nofail(),
which explicitly uses __GFP_NOFAIL, and use it in ext4_free_branches().

When the file system is frozen in preparation for taking an LVM
snapshot, the journal is checkpointed and if the orphan_file feature
is enabled, and the orphan file is empty, we clear the orphan_present
feature flag. But if there are pending inodes that need to be removed
the orphan_present feature flag can't be cleared.
The problem comes if the block device is read-only. In that case, we
can't process the orphan inode list, so it is skipped in
ext4_orphan_cleanup(). But then in ext4_mark_recovery_complete(),
this results in the ext4 error "Orphan file not empty on read-only fs"
firing and the file system mount is aborted.
