2025-10-09cifs: Add fallback code path for cifs_mkdir_setinfo()Pali Rohár
Use SMBSetInformation() as a fallback function (when CIFSSMBSetPathInfo() fails) which can set attribudes on the directory, including changing read-only attribute. Signed-off-by: Pali Rohár <pali@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
2025-10-09cifs: Allow fallback code in smb_set_file_info() also for directoriesPali Rohár
On NT systems, it is possible to do SMB open call also for directories. Open argument CREATE_NOT_DIR disallows opening directories. So in fallback code path in smb_set_file_info() remove CREATE_NOT_DIR restriction to allow it also for directories. Similar fallback is implemented also in CIFSSMBSetPathInfoFB() function and this function already allows to call operation for directories.

2025-10-09smb: client: fix race with fallocate(2) and AIO+DIOPaulo Alcantara
AIO+DIO may extend the file size, hence we need to make sure ->i_size is stable across the entire fallocate(2) operation, otherwise it would become a truncate and then inode size reduced back down when it finishes. Fix this by calling netfs_wait_for_outstanding_io() right after acquiring ->i_rwsem exclusively in cifs_fallocate() and then guarantee a stable ->i_size across fallocate(2). Also call netfs_wait_for_outstanding_io() after truncating pagecache to avoid any potential races with writeback.

2025-10-09smb: client: fix missing timestamp updates with O_TRUNCPaulo Alcantara
Don't call ->set_file_info() on open handle to prevent the server from stopping [cm]time updates automatically as per MS-FSA 2.1.4.17. Fix this by checking for ATTR_OPEN bit earlier in cifs_setattr() to prevent ->set_file_info() from being called when opening a file with O_TRUNC. Do the truncation in ->open() instead. This also saves two roundtrips when opening a file with O_TRUNC and there are currently no open handles to be reused.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "This focuses on two primary updates for Android devices. First, it sets hash-based file name lookup as the default method to improve performance, while retaining an option to fall back to a linear lookup. Second, it resolves a persistent issue with the 'checkpoint=enable' feature. The update further boosts performance by prefetching node blocks, merging FUA writes more efficiently, and optimizing block allocation policies. The release is rounded out by a comprehensive set of bug fixes that address memory safety, data integrity, and potential system hangs, along with minor documentation and code clean-ups. Enhancements: - add mount option and sysfs entry to tune the lookup mode - dump more information and add a timeout when enabling/disabling checkpoints - readahead node blocks in F2FS_GET_BLOCK_PRECACHE mode - merge FUA command with the existing writes - allocate HOT_DATA for IPU writes - Use allocate_section_policy to control write priority in multi-devices setups - add reserved nodes for privileged users - Add bggc_io_aware to adjust the priority of BG_GC when issuing IO - show the list of donation files Bug fixes: - add missing dput() when printing the donation list - fix UAF issue in f2fs_merge_page_bio() - add sanity check on ei.len in __update_extent_tree_range() - fix infinite loop in __insert_extent_tree() - fix zero-sized extent for precache extents - fix to mitigate overhead of f2fs_zero_post_eof_page() - fix to avoid migrating empty section - fix to truncate first page in error path of f2fs_truncate() - fix to update map->m_next_extent correctly in f2fs_map_blocks() - fix wrong layout information on 16KB page - fix to do sanity check on node footer for non inode dnode - fix to avoid NULL pointer dereference in f2fs_check_quota_consistency() - fix to detect potential corrupted nid in free_nid_list - fix to clear unusable_cap for checkpoint=enable - fix to zero data after EOF for compressed file correctly - fix to avoid overflow while left shift operation - fix condition in __allow_reserved_blocks()" * tag 'f2fs-for-6.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs: (43 commits) f2fs: add missing dput() when printing the donation list f2fs: fix UAF issue in f2fs_merge_page_bio() f2fs: readahead node blocks in F2FS_GET_BLOCK_PRECACHE mode f2fs: add sanity check on ei.len in __update_extent_tree_range() f2fs: fix infinite loop in __insert_extent_tree() f2fs: fix zero-sized extent for precache extents f2fs: fix to mitigate overhead of f2fs_zero_post_eof_page() f2fs: fix to avoid migrating empty section f2fs: fix to truncate first page in error path of f2fs_truncate() f2fs: fix to update map->m_next_extent correctly in f2fs_map_blocks() f2fs: fix wrong layout information on 16KB page f2fs: clean up error handing of f2fs_submit_page_read() f2fs: avoid unnecessary folio_clear_uptodate() for cleanup f2fs: merge FUA command with the existing writes f2fs: allocate HOT_DATA for IPU writes f2fs: Use allocate_section_policy to control write priority in multi-devices setups Documentation: f2fs: Reword title Documentation: f2fs: Indent compression_mode option list Documentation: f2fs: Wrap snippets in literal code blocks Documentation: f2fs: Span write hint table section rows ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka: - A new layer for caching objects for allocation and free via percpu arrays called sheaves. The aim is to combine the good parts of SLAB (lower-overhead and simpler percpu caching, compared to SLUB) without the past issues with arrays for freeing remote NUMA node objects and their flushing. It also allows more efficient kfree_rcu(), and cheaper object preallocations for cases where the exact number of objects is unknown, but an upper bound is. Currently VMAs and maple nodes are using this new caching, with a plan to enable it for all caches and remove the complex SLUB fastpath based on cpu (partial) slabs and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(). (Vlastimil Babka, with Liam Howlett and Pedro Falcato for the maple tree changes) - Re-entrant kmalloc_nolock(), which allows opportunistic allocations from NMI and tracing/kprobe contexts. Building on prior page allocator and memcg changes, it will result in removing BPF-specific caches on top of slab (Alexei Starovoitov) - Various fixes and cleanups.

A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following writes. By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no need to do a full disk resync/recovery. - Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather than struct block_device. - Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes. The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from `kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string` to support the same use as the removed logic. - floppy arch cleanups - Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands - Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket setups. - A few s390 dasd block fixes - Fix a few issues around atomic writes - Improve DMA interation for integrity requests - Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment constraints. We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now only the request as a whole needs to. - Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata payloads - Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate - Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections - Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs - Clean up and improve updating nr_requests for a live device - Various fixes and cleanups * tag 'for-6.18/block-20250929' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux: (164 commits) s390/dasd: enforce dma_alignment to ensure proper buffer validation s390/dasd: Return BLK_STS_INVAL for EINVAL from do_dasd_request ublk: remove redundant zone op check in ublk_setup_iod() nvme: Use non zero KATO for persistent discovery connections nvmet: add safety check for subsys lock nvme-core: use nvme_is_io_ctrl() for I/O controller check nvme-core: do ioccsz/iorcsz validation only for I/O controllers nvme-core: add method to check for an I/O controller blk-cgroup: fix possible deadlock while configuring policy blk-mq: fix null-ptr-deref in blk_mq_free_tags() from error path blk-mq: Fix more tag iteration function documentation selftests: ublk: fix behavior when fio is not installed ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_unmap_io() ublk: pass ublk_io to __ublk_complete_rq() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_need_complete_req() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_check_commit_and_fetch() ublk: don't pass ublk_queue to ublk_fetch() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_config_io_buf() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_check_fetch_buf() ublk: pass q_id and tag to __ublk_check_and_get_req() ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe: - Store ring provided buffers locally for the users, rather than stuff them into struct io_kiocb. These types of buffers must always be fully consumed or recycled in the current context, and leaving them in struct io_kiocb is hence not a good ideas as that struct has a vastly different life time. Basically just an architecture cleanup that can help prevent issues with ring provided buffers in the future. - Support for mixed CQE sizes in the same ring. Before this change, a CQ ring either used the default 16b CQEs, or it was setup with 32b CQE using IORING_SETUP_CQE32. For use cases where a few 32b CQEs were needed, this caused everything else to use big CQEs. This is wasteful both in terms of memory usage, but also memory bandwidth for the posted CQEs. With IORING_SETUP_CQE_MIXED, applications may use request types that post both normal 16b and big 32b CQEs on the same ring. - Add helpers for async data management, to make it harder for opcode handlers to mess it up. - Add support for multishot for uring_cmd, which ublk can use. This helps improve efficiency, by providing a persistent request type that can trigger multiple CQEs. - Add initial support for ring feature querying. We had basic support for probe operations, but the API isn't great. Rather than expand that, add support for QUERY which is easily expandable and can cover a lot more cases than the existing probe support. This will help applications get a better idea of what operations are supported on a given host. - zcrx improvements from Pavel: - Improve refill entry alignment for better caching - Various cleanups, especially around deduplicating normal memory vs dmabuf setup. - Generalisation of the niov size (Patch 12). It's still hard coded to PAGE_SIZE on init, but will let the user to specify the rx buffer length on setup. - Syscall / synchronous bufer return. It'll be used as a slow fallback path for returning buffers when the refill queue is full. Useful for tolerating slight queue size misconfiguration or with inconsistent load. - Accounting more memory to cgroups. - Additional independent cleanups that will also be useful for mutli-area support. - Various fixes and cleanups * tag 'for-6.18/io_uring-20250929' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux: (68 commits) io_uring/cmd: drop unused res2 param from io_uring_cmd_done() io_uring: fix nvme's 32b cqes on mixed cq io_uring/query: cap number of queries io_uring/query: prevent infinite loops io_uring/zcrx: account niov arrays to cgroup io_uring/zcrx: allow synchronous buffer return io_uring/zcrx: introduce io_parse_rqe() io_uring/zcrx: don't adjust free cache space io_uring/zcrx: use guards for the refill lock io_uring/zcrx: reduce netmem scope in refill io_uring/zcrx: protect netdev with pp_lock io_uring/zcrx: rename dma lock io_uring/zcrx: make niov size variable io_uring/zcrx: set sgt for umem area io_uring/zcrx: remove dmabuf_offset io_uring/zcrx: deduplicate area mapping io_uring/zcrx: pass ifq to io_zcrx_alloc_fallback() io_uring/zcrx: check all niovs filled with dma addresses io_uring/zcrx: move area reg checks into io_import_area io_uring/zcrx: don't pass slot to io_zcrx_create_area ...
