2025-11-16convert devptsAl Viro
Two kinds of objects there - ptmx and everything else (pty). The former is created on mount and kept until the fs shutdown; the latter get created and removed by tty layer (the references are borrowed into tty->driver_data). The reference to ptmx dentry is also kept, but we only ever use it to find ptmx inode on remount. * turn d_add() into d_make_persistent() + dput() both in mknod_ptmx() and in devpts_pty_new(). * turn dput() to d_make_discardable() in devpts_pty_kill(). * switch mknod_ptmx() to simple_{start,done}_creating(). * instead of storing in pts_fs_info a reference to ptmx dentry, store a reference to its inode, seeing that this is what we use it for.

Initially filesystem is populated with d_alloc_name() + d_add(). That becomes d_alloc_name() + d_make_persistent() + dput(). Dynamic creation is switched to d_make_persistent(); removal - to simple_unlink() (no point open-coding it in efivarfs_unlink(), better call it there) Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2025-11-16convert tracefsAl Viro
A mix of persistent and non-persistent dentries in there. Strictly speaking, no need for kill_litter_super() anyway - it pins an internal mount whenever a persistent dentry is created, so at fs shutdown time there won't be any to deal with. However, let's make it explicit - replace d_instantiate() with d_make_persistent() + dput() (the latter in tracefs_end_creating(), where it folds with inode_unlock() into simple_done_creating()) for dentries we want persistent and have d_make_discardable() done either by simple_recursive_removal() (used by tracefs_remove()) or explicitly in eventfs_remove_events_dir().

2025-11-16convert ramfs and tmpfsAl Viro
Quite a bit is already done by infrastructure changes (simple_link(), simple_unlink()) - all that is left is replacing d_instantiate() + pinning dget() (in ->symlink() and ->mknod()) with d_make_persistent(), and, in case of shmem, using simple_unlink() and simple_link() in ->unlink() and ->link() resp., instead of open-coding those there. Since d_make_persistent() accepts (and hashes) unhashed ones, shmem situation gets simpler - we no longer care whether ->lookup() has hashed the sucker. With that done, we don't need kill_litter_super() for these filesystems anymore - by the umount time all remaining dentries will be marked persistent and kill_litter_super() will boil down to call of kill_anon_super(). The same goes for devtmpfs and rootfs - they are handled by ramfs or by shmem, depending upon config. NB: strictly speaking, both devtmpfs and rootfs ought to use ramfs_kill_sb() if they end up using ramfs; that's a separate story and the only impact of "just use kill_{litter,anon}_super()" is that we fail to free their sb->s_fs_info... on reboot. That's orthogonal to the changes in this series - kill_litter_super() is identical to kill_anon_super() for those at this point. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2025-11-16convert simple_{link,unlink,rmdir,rename,fill_super}() to new primitivesAl Viro

2025-11-16primitives for maintaining persisitencyAl Viro
* d_make_persistent(dentry, inode) - bump refcount, mark persistent and make hashed positive. Return value is a borrowed reference to dentry; it can be used until something removes persistency (at the very least, until the parent gets unlocked, but some filesystems may have stronger exclusion). * d_make_discardable() - remove persistency mark and drop reference. d_make_persistent() is similar to combination of d_instantiate(), dget() and setting flag. The only difference is that unlike d_instantiate() it accepts hashed and unhashed negatives alike. It is always called in strong locking environment (parent held exclusive, or, in some cases, dentry coming from d_alloc_name()); if we ever start using it with parent held only shared and dentry coming from d_alloc_parallel(), we'll need to copy the in-lookup logics from __d_add(). d_make_discardable() is eqiuvalent to combination of removing flag and dput(); since flag removal requires ->d_lock, there's no point trying to avoid taking that for refcount decrement as fast_dput() does. The slow path of dput() has been taken into a helper and reused in d_make_discardable() instead. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2025-11-16introduce a flag for explicitly marking persistently pinned dentriesAl Viro
Some filesystems use a kinda-sorta controlled dentry refcount leak to pin dentries of created objects in dcache (and undo it when removing those). Reference is grabbed and not released, but it's not actually _stored_ anywhere. That works, but it's hard to follow and verify; among other things, we have no way to tell _which_ of the increments is intended to be an unpaired one. Worse, on removal we need to decide whether the reference had already been dropped, which can be non-trivial if that removal is on umount and we need to figure out if this dentry is pinned due to e.g. unlink() not done. Usually that is handled by using kill_litter_super() as ->kill_sb(), but there are open-coded special cases of the same (consider e.g. /proc/self). Things get simpler if we introduce a new dentry flag (DCACHE_PERSISTENT) marking those "leaked" dentries. Having it set claims responsibility for +1 in refcount. The end result this series is aiming for: * get these unbalanced dget() and dput() replaced with new primitives that would, in addition to adjusting refcount, set and clear persistency flag. * instead of having kill_litter_super() mess with removing the remaining "leaked" references (e.g. for all tmpfs files that hadn't been removed prior to umount), have the regular shrink_dcache_for_umount() strip DCACHE_PERSISTENT of all dentries, dropping the corresponding reference if it had been set. After that kill_litter_super() becomes an equivalent of kill_anon_super(). Doing that in a single step is not feasible - it would affect too many places in too many filesystems. It has to be split into a series. Here we * introduce the new flag * teach shrink_dcache_for_umount() to handle it (i.e. remove and drop refcount on anything that survives to umount with that flag still set) * teach kill_litter_super() that anything with that flag does *not* need to be unpinned. Next commits will add primitives for maintaing that flag and convert the common helpers to those. After that - a long series of per-filesystem patches converting to those primitives.

2025-11-14VFS: change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure.NeilBrown
vfs_mkdir() already drops the reference to the dentry on failure but it leaves the parent locked. This complicates end_creating() which needs to unlock the parent even though the dentry is no longer available. If we change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure as well as releasing the dentry, we can remove the "parent" arg from end_creating() and simplify the rules for calling it. Note that cachefiles_get_directory() can choose to substitute an error instead of actually calling vfs_mkdir(), for fault injection. In that case it needs to call end_creating(), just as vfs_mkdir() now does on error. ovl_create_real() will now unlock on error. So the conditional end_creating() after the call is removed, and end_creating() is called internally on error.

2025-11-14Add start_renaming_two_dentries()NeilBrown
A few callers want to lock for a rename and already have both dentries. Also debugfs does want to perform a lookup but doesn't want permission checking, so start_renaming_dentry() cannot be used. This patch introduces start_renaming_two_dentries() which is given both dentries. debugfs performs one lookup itself. As it will only continue with a negative dentry and as those cannot be renamed or unlinked, it is safe to do the lookup before getting the rename locks. overlayfs uses start_renaming_two_dentries() in three places and selinux uses it twice in sel_make_policy_nodes(). In sel_make_policy_nodes() we now lock for rename twice instead of just once so the combined operation is no longer atomic w.r.t the parent directory locks. As selinux_state.policy_mutex is held across the whole operation this does not open up any interesting races.

2025-11-14VFS/ovl/smb: introduce start_renaming_dentry()NeilBrown
Several callers perform a rename on a dentry they already have, and only require lookup for the target name. This includes smb/server and a few different places in overlayfs. start_renaming_dentry() performs the required lookup and takes the required lock using lock_rename_child() It is used in three places in overlayfs and in ksmbd_vfs_rename(). In the ksmbd case, the parent of the source is not important - the source must be renamed from wherever it is. So start_renaming_dentry() allows rd->old_parent to be NULL and only checks it if it is non-NULL. On success rd->old_parent will be the parent of old_dentry with an extra reference taken. Other start_renaming function also now take the extra reference and end_renaming() now drops this reference as well. ovl_lookup_temp(), ovl_parent_lock(), and ovl_parent_unlock() are all removed as they are no longer needed. OVL_TEMPNAME_SIZE and ovl_tempname() are now declared in overlayfs.h so that ovl_check_rename_whiteout() can access them. ovl_copy_up_workdir() now always cleans up on error.

start_renaming() combines name lookup and locking to prepare for rename. It is used when two names need to be looked up as in nfsd and overlayfs - cases where one or both dentries are already available will be handled separately. __start_renaming() avoids the inode_permission check and hash calculation and is suitable after filename_parentat() in do_renameat2(). It subsumes quite a bit of code from that function. start_renaming() does calculate the hash and check X permission and is suitable elsewhere: - nfsd_rename() - ovl_rename() In ovl, ovl_do_rename_rd() is factored out of ovl_do_rename(), which itself will be gone by the end of the series.

2025-11-14VFS: introduce start_removing_dentry()NeilBrown
start_removing_dentry() is similar to start_removing() but instead of providing a name for lookup, the target dentry is given. start_removing_dentry() checks that the dentry is still hashed and in the parent, and if so it locks and increases the refcount so that end_removing() can be used to finish the operation. This is used in cachefiles, overlayfs, smb/server, and apparmor. There will be other users including ecryptfs. As start_removing_dentry() takes an extra reference to the dentry (to be put by end_removing()), there is no need to explicitly take an extra reference to stop d_delete() from using dentry_unlink_inode() to negate the dentry - as in cachefiles_delete_object(), and ksmbd_vfs_unlink(). cachefiles_bury_object() now gets an extra ref to the victim, which is drops.

start_creating() is similar to simple_start_creating() but is not so simple. It takes a qstr for the name, includes permission checking, and does NOT report an error if the name already exists, returning a positive dentry instead. This is currently used by nfsd, cachefiles, and overlayfs. end_creating() is called after the dentry has been used. end_creating() drops the reference to the dentry as it is generally no longer needed. This is exactly the first section of end_creating_path() so that function is changed to call the new end_creating() These calls help encapsulate locking rules so that directory locking can be changed. Occasionally this change means that the parent lock is held for a shorter period of time, for example in cachefiles_commit_tmpfile(). As this function now unlocks after an unlink and before the following lookup, it is possible that the lookup could again find a positive dentry, so a while loop is introduced there. In overlayfs the ovl_lookup_temp() function has ovl_tempname() split out to be used in ovl_start_creating_temp(). The other use of ovl_lookup_temp() is preparing for a rename. When rename handling is updated, ovl_lookup_temp() will be removed.

The simplification of locking in the previous patch opens up some room for tidying up do_unlinkat() - change all "exit" labels to describe what will happen at the label. - always goto an exit label on an error - unwrap the "if (!IS_ERR())" branch. - Move the "slashes" handing inline, but mark it as unlikely() - simplify use of the "inode" variable - we no longer need to test for NULL.

2025-11-14VFS: introduce start_dirop() and end_dirop()NeilBrown
The fact that directory operations (create,remove,rename) are protected by a lock on the parent is known widely throughout the kernel. In order to change this - to instead lock the target dentry - it is best to centralise this knowledge so it can be changed in one place. This patch introduces start_dirop() which is local to VFS code. It performs the required locking for create and remove. Rename will be handled separately. Various functions with names like start_creating() or start_removing_path(), some of which already exist, will export this functionality beyond the VFS. end_dirop() is the partner of start_dirop(). It drops the lock and releases the reference on the dentry. It *is* exported so that various end_creating etc functions can be inline. As vfs_mkdir() drops the dentry on error we cannot use end_dirop() as that won't unlock when the dentry IS_ERR(). For now we need an explicit unlock when dentry IS_ERR(). I hope to change vfs_mkdir() to unlock when it drops a dentry so that explicit unlock can go away. end_dirop() can always be called on the result of start_dirop(), but not after vfs_mkdir(). After a vfs_mkdir() we still may need the explicit unlock as seen in end_creating_path(). As well as adding start_dirop() and end_dirop() this patch uses them in: - simple_start_creating (which requires sharing lookup_noperm_common() with libfs.c) - start_removing_path / start_removing_user_path_at - filename_create / end_creating_path() - do_rmdir(), do_unlinkat() Reviewed-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neil@brown.name> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251113002050.676694-3-neilb@ownmail.net Tested-by: syzbot@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
2025-11-14debugfs: rename end_creating() to debugfs_end_creating()NeilBrown
By not using the generic end_creating() name here we are free to use it more globally for a more generic function. This should have been done when start_creating() was renamed. For consistency, also rename failed_creating().

However, this fix is still not ready for negative values of the offset or length. Moreover, negative values of the offset or length doesn't make sense for b-tree's operations. Because we could try to access the memory address outside of the beginning of memory page's addresses range. Also, using of negative values make logic very complicated, unpredictable, and we could access the wrong item(s) in the b-tree node. This patch changes b-tree interface by means of converting signed integer arguments of offset and length on u32 type. Such conversion has goal to prevent of using negative values unintentionally or by mistake in b-tree operations.

2025-11-13hfsplus: fix missing hfs_bnode_get() in __hfs_bnode_createYang Chenzhi
When sync() and link() are called concurrently, both threads may enter hfs_bnode_find() without finding the node in the hash table and proceed to create it. Thread A: hfsplus_write_inode() -> hfsplus_write_system_inode() -> hfs_btree_write() -> hfs_bnode_find(tree, 0) -> __hfs_bnode_create(tree, 0) Thread B: hfsplus_create_cat() -> hfs_brec_insert() -> hfs_bnode_split() -> hfs_bmap_alloc() -> hfs_bnode_find(tree, 0) -> __hfs_bnode_create(tree, 0) In this case, thread A creates the bnode, sets refcnt=1, and hashes it. Thread B also tries to create the same bnode, notices it has already been inserted, drops its own instance, and uses the hashed one without getting the node. ``` node2 = hfs_bnode_findhash(tree, cnid); if (!node2) { <- Thread A hash = hfs_bnode_hash(cnid); node->next_hash = tree->node_hash[hash]; tree->node_hash[hash] = node; tree->node_hash_cnt++; } else { <- Thread B spin_unlock(&tree->hash_lock); kfree(node); wait_event(node2->lock_wq, !test_bit(HFS_BNODE_NEW, &node2->flags)); return node2; } ``` However, hfs_bnode_find() requires each call to take a reference. Here both threads end up setting refcnt=1. When they later put the node, this triggers: BUG_ON(!atomic_read(&node->refcnt)) In this scenario, Thread B in fact finds the node in the hash table rather than creating a new one, and thus must take a reference. Fix this by calling hfs_bnode_get() when reusing a bnode newly created by another thread to ensure the refcount is updated correctly. A similar bug was fixed in HFS long ago in commit a9dc087fd3c4 ("fix missing hfs_bnode_get() in __hfs_bnode_create") but the same issue remained in HFS+ until now.

2025-11-13jbd2: use a weaker annotation in journal handlingByungchul Park
jbd2 journal handling code doesn't want jbd2_might_wait_for_commit() to be placed between start_this_handle() and stop_this_handle(). So it marks the region with rwsem_acquire_read() and rwsem_release(). However, the annotation is too strong for that purpose. We don't have to use more than try lock annotation for that. rwsem_acquire_read() implies: 1. might be a waiter on contention of the lock. 2. enter to the critical section of the lock. All we need in here is to act 2, not 1. So trylock version of annotation is sufficient for that purpose. Now that dept partially relies on lockdep annotaions, dept interpets rwsem_acquire_read() as a potential wait and might report a deadlock by the wait. Replace it with trylock version of annotation.

2025-11-13jbd2: use a per-journal lock_class_key for jbd2_trans_commit_keyTetsuo Handa
syzbot is reporting possibility of deadlock due to sharing lock_class_key for jbd2_handle across ext4 and ocfs2. But this is a false positive, for one disk partition can't have two filesystems at the same time.

2025-11-13ext4: xattr: fix null pointer deref in ext4_raw_inode()Karina Yankevich
If ext4_get_inode_loc() fails (e.g. if it returns -EFSCORRUPTED), iloc.bh will remain set to NULL. Since ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all() lacks error checking, this will lead to a null pointer dereference in ext4_raw_inode(), called right after ext4_get_inode_loc(). Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

2025-11-13ext4: refresh inline data size before write operationsDeepanshu Kartikey
The cached ei->i_inline_size can become stale between the initial size check and when ext4_update_inline_data()/ext4_create_inline_data() use it. Although ext4_get_max_inline_size() reads the correct value at the time of the check, concurrent xattr operations can modify i_inline_size before ext4_write_lock_xattr() is acquired. This causes ext4_update_inline_data() and ext4_create_inline_data() to work with stale capacity values, leading to a BUG_ON() crash in ext4_write_inline_data(): kernel BUG at fs/ext4/inline.c:1331! BUG_ON(pos + len > EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size); The race window: 1. ext4_get_max_inline_size() reads i_inline_size = 60 (correct) 2. Size check passes for 50-byte write 3. [Another thread adds xattr, i_inline_size changes to 40] 4. ext4_write_lock_xattr() acquires lock 5. ext4_update_inline_data() uses stale i_inline_size = 60 6. Attempts to write 50 bytes but only 40 bytes actually available 7. BUG_ON() triggers Fix this by recalculating i_inline_size via ext4_find_inline_data_nolock() immediately after acquiring xattr_sem. This ensures ext4_update_inline_data() and ext4_create_inline_data() work with current values that are protected from concurrent modifications. This is similar to commit a54c4613dac1 ("ext4: fix race writing to an inline_data file while its xattrs are changing") which fixed i_inline_off staleness. This patch addresses the related i_inline_size staleness issue.
