Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner: - Mount notifications The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with fanotify to listen for mount topology changes. Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are generated. The generated notification record contains the unique mount id of the mount. The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed information about the mount using the received unique mount id. This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo in userspace. - Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount api - Support detached mounts in overlayfs Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means userspace cannot user file descriptors received via open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first. This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount(). Allow them to directly use detached mounts. - Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which allows to read the idmapping from the mount. - Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any way. The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation for userspace. - Add a way to query statmount() for supported options Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved through statmount(). - Allow superblock owners to force unmount * tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (21 commits) umount: Allow superblock owners to force umount selftests: add tests for mount notification selinux: add FILE__WATCH_MOUNTNS samples/vfs: fix printf format string for size_t fs: allow changing idmappings fs: add kflags member to struct mount_kattr fs: add open_tree_attr() fs: add copy_mount_setattr() helper fs: add vfs_open_tree() helper statmount: add a new supported_mask field samples/vfs: add STATMOUNT_MNT_{G,U}IDMAP selftests: add tests for using detached mount with overlayfs samples/vfs: check whether flag was raised statmount: allow to retrieve idmappings uidgid: add map_id_range_up() fs: allow detached mounts in clone_private_mount() selftests/overlayfs: test specifying layers as O_PATH file descriptors fs: support O_PATH fds with FSCONFIG_SET_FD vfs: add notifications for mount attach and detach fanotify: notify on mount attach and detach ...
