2026-08-17nfs: fix ENXIO on O_CREAT open of existing symlink over NFSv3Michael Nemanov
When open(2) is called with O_CREAT on a path that already exists as a symlink, over an NFSv3 mount with a cold dcache, the kernel returns ENXIO instead of following the symlink to its target. Reproducer script (MNT is an NFSv3 mount, kernel is 7.1-rc6): MNT=/mnt/export ln -sf /tmp/target $MNT/mylink echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches # cold dcache python3 - <<'EOF' import os fd = os.open('/mnt/export/mylink', os.O_WRONLY | os.O_CREAT | os.O_APPEND, 0o666) os.close(fd) EOF Expected: success (follow symlink, open target) Actual: OSError: [Errno 6] No such device or address The bug does not trigger when the dcache is warm (e.g. after a prior stat(2)), because lookup_open() then finds a positive dentry and skips atomic_open entirely, leaving symlink resolution to the VFS. Root cause: nfs_atomic_open_v23(), registered as inode->i_op->atomic_open for NFSv3, handles O_CREAT by sending a CREATE UNCHECKED RPC. As implemented in nfsd3_create_file() (fs/nfsd/nfs3proc.c) and as required by RFC 1813 (3.3.8), when the name already exists as a non-regular file the server returns NFS3_OK with the existing object's file handle rather than NFS3ERR_EXIST causing nfs_do_create() to return 0 with the dentry now pointing to a symlink. The code then unconditionally calls finish_open(), which dispatches through inode->i_fop->open(). Symlink inodes never have i_fop set — the VFS initialises it to &no_open_fops because POSIX requires open(2) to follow symlinks, never open them directly. no_open() returns -ENXIO. Fix: After nfs_do_create() succeeds, verify the returned inode is a regular file before calling finish_open(). If the object is not regular, return finish_no_open(file, NULL) so the VFS follows the symlink through the normal open path. NULL is passed because nfs_do_create() instantiates the inode on the dentry already owned by the caller; passing dentry back would cause atomic_open() to dput() it a second time. !S_ISREG() is used rather than S_ISLNK() to cover any other non-regular types a server might return. Changes in v2: - Pass NULL to finish_no_open() per Trond's feedback. Fixes: 7c6c5249f061 ("NFS: add atomic_open for NFSv3 to handle O_TRUNC correctly.")

2026-08-17SUNRPC: wait for in-flight client TLS handshake callbackJérémy Jean
xs_tls_handshake_sync() gives xs_tls_handshake_done() a reference to the lower transport before submitting the handshake request. On timeout or signal, the synchronous waiter drops that reference after calling tls_handshake_cancel(). handshake_req_cancel() returns false when handshake_complete() has already marked the request complete. In that case the completion callback can still be running, so dropping the callback-owned reference in the waiter can free the lower transport before xs_tls_handshake_done() stores xprt_err or drops its own reference. If cancellation loses to completion, wait until xs_tls_handshake_done() signals handshake_done and let the callback release its reference. This mirrors the server-side handshake lifetime handling and keeps the timeout or signal return value unchanged.

2026-08-17lockd: fix NULL dereference on lockowner allocation failureShuangpeng Bai
nlmclnt_locks_init_private() installs NLM file lock operations even when nlmclnt_find_lockowner() fails to allocate a lockowner. nlmclnt_proc() then returns -ENOMEM, but the VFS still tears down the partially initialized file_lock and calls locks_release_private(). That invokes nlmclnt_locks_release_private(), which dereferences fl->fl_u.nfs_fl.owner and crashes because the owner was never installed. Clear fl_ops before attempting to initialize the NLM private state, and install the NLM lock operations only after a lockowner has been allocated successfully.

2026-08-17NFS: fix delegation_hash_table leak when nfs4_server_common_setup() failsNate Prodromou
nfs4_server_common_setup() allocates server->delegation_hash_table first, but server->destroy - the only path that frees the table via nfs4_destroy_server() - is not assigned until the very end of the function. If any intermediate step fails (the is_ds_only_client() check, nfs4_init_session(), nfs4_get_rootfh(), or nfs_probe_server()), the function returns with server->destroy still NULL, so the caller's nfs_free_server() skips the destroy callback and the hash table is leaked (4 KiB per attempt with the default delegation watermark). This is trivially reachable from userspace: every failed NFSv4 mount leaks one allocation. A client that persistently retries a mount that cannot succeed leaks kernel memory without bound. Observed in production where a Longhorn backup poller retried mount.nfs4 against an NFSv3-only server roughly 10 times per second, leaking ~3.4 GiB of unreclaimable slab (kmalloc-rnd-13-4k) per day; the node accumulated 12 GiB of leaked slab before the source was identified via the kmem:kmalloc tracepoint (call_site=nfs4_delegation_hash_alloc). Reproducer: # server exports NFSv3 only (or export path absent for v4) while :; do mount -t nfs4 <server>:/missing /mnt; done # watch SUnreclaim in /proc/meminfo grow 4 KiB per iteration Free the table on the error paths between the allocation and the assignment of server->destroy.

2026-08-17NFSv4/flexfiles: support loosely coupled data serversJeuk Kim
A flexfiles storage device is tightly coupled to the MDS only when the decoded ds_versions[0].tightly_coupled flag is set (RFC 8435, sections 2.3 and 4.1). The client currently ignores that flag and treats every data server as tightly coupled, which breaks I/O to loosely coupled DSes. Two things force that assumption on an NFSv4.1+ DS: 1) nfs4_set_ds_client() always sets NFS_CS_PNFS on the new client, so EXCHANGE_ID is sent with EXCHGID4_FLAG_USE_PNFS_DS. 2) nfs4_init_ds_session() then calls is_ds_client() and returns -ENODEV if the reply does not carry EXCHGID4_FLAG_USE_PNFS_DS. A loosely coupled DS is just a normal NFS server and does not act in the pNFS DS role, so the client must not require it to advertise that role. Thread the ds_versions[0].tightly_coupled flag from the flexfiles driver down to the DS connect path. When it is false, skip both the NFS_CS_PNFS flag and the is_ds_client() check. The file layout driver always passes true because NFSv4.1 file layout data servers use the pNFS DS role.

2026-08-17NFSv4/flexfiles: fix NULL dereference for NFSv4.0 data serversJeuk Kim
flexfiles accepts NFSv4.0 data servers, but two NFSv4 code paths assume the data server client has a session. Unlike NFSv4.1+, an NFSv4.0 client has no session (clp->cl_session is NULL; it uses clp->cl_slot_tbl), so I/O to a v4.0 flexfiles DS oopses: - nfs4_init_ds_session() dereferences clp->cl_session->session_state while seeding the DS lease. It also only seeds cl_lease_time when NFS4_SESSION_INITING is set; without a session that never happens, so cl_lease_time stays 0 and nfs4_renew_state() busy-loops, requeuing every 5 seconds. Seed the lease whenever there is no session and return before touching session state. - ff_layout_async_handle_error_v4() dereferences clp->cl_session->fc_slot_table on every DS I/O error. Fall back to the v4.0 transport slot table (clp->cl_slot_tbl) when there is no session.

2026-08-17NFSv4: pin the superblock for active state ownersJia Zhu
NFSv4 open state can outlive the file and dentry that created it. This was observed in production when NFSv4 state recovery, such as after a server reboot or lease expiration, raced with unmount. The race requires recovery to hold an open state reference while the last open file is closed and the filesystem is unmounted, allowing the superblock's active reference to drop to zero between refcount_inc(&state->count) and nfs4_put_open_state(): state manager umount nfs4_run_state_manager() nfs4_do_reclaim() nfs4_reclaim_open_state() refcount_inc(&state->count) ... close last file generic_shutdown_super() "Busy inodes after unmount" nfs_free_server() nfs4_put_open_state() iput(inode) evict() nfs_clear_inode() nfs_zap_acl_cache() The "VFS: Busy inodes after unmount" warning is the visible symptom of that lifetime mismatch: superblock teardown proceeds even though the NFS open state still pins an inode. After umount has freed the server, the state manager can then run nfs4_put_open_state() for the last open-state reference. The resulting iput(inode) can evict an NFS inode with freed server data, causing crashes at nfs_zap_acl_cache(). This can be reproduced by delaying the reclaim path before nfs4_put_open_state(), then closing the last file and unmounting the NFS mount. Pin the superblock while a state owner is active, and drop the pin when the owner becomes idle again, so the NFS server stays alive until all open state associated with the owner has been released.

2026-08-17sunrpc: fix use-after-free in __rpc_clnt_handle_event and ↵Luxiao Xu
__rpc_clnt_remove_pipedir Normal client creation goes through rpc_setup_pipedir(), which records clnt->pipefs_sb, but the mount-event path in __rpc_clnt_handle_event() calls rpc_setup_pipedir_sb() directly and never refreshes that field. The umount path also removes the directory without clearing clnt->pipefs_sb. After a late pipefs mount or any remount, rpc_clnt_remove_pipedir() compares the current superblock against a stale pipefs_sb pointer and skips cleanup, leaving pipefs dentries whose inode private data still points at a freed rpc_clnt, leading to a potential use-after-free during subsequent rpc_info_open() or rpc_show_info() calls. Fix this by properly updating clnt->pipefs_sb upon mount events and clearing it during unmount or failure paths.

2026-08-17NFS/localio: issue commit inline when not in a memory-reclaim contextMike Snitzer
Extend the memory-reclaim-context test used for LOCALIO reads and writes to the commit (fsync) path. As with data IO, bouncing every commit through the dedicated !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nfslocaliod_workqueue is only required when the submitting context is a memory-reclaim context: nfs_local_run_commit() calls vfs_fsync_range(), which may flush the underlying filesystem's own !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue, and doing so from a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM worker or a PF_MEMALLOC task trips check_flush_dependency(). The writeback path does exercise this: nfs_write_inode() (the ->write_inode super_op) runs under wb_workfn on the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM bdi_wq and reaches nfs_local_commit() via __nfs_commit_inode(), so that case must keep deferring. Application-context commits -- fsync (nfs_file_fsync), O_DIRECT (nfs_direct), and copy/clone (nfs42) -- are not in a reclaim context and now run the fsync inline via nfs_local_defer_io(), avoiding the per-commit workqueue hop. Completion (nfs_commit_release_pages -> nfs_commit_end) then runs synchronously in the submitting context; higher layers already cope with this, as __nfs_commit_inode() dispatches the commit async and waits for it separately via wait_on_commit().

2026-08-17NFS/localio: remove dead FLUSH_SYNC handling from nfs_local_commitMike Snitzer
nfs_local_commit() is reached only through nfs_initiate_commit(), and every path that supplies its "how" argument has already cleared FLUSH_SYNC: __nfs_commit_inode() strips it (how &= ~FLUSH_SYNC) before dispatch and does its own waiting via wait_on_commit(), while the O_DIRECT path passes how=0. filelayout issues its DS commit with a NULL localio, so it never enters nfs_local_commit() at all. The FLUSH_SYNC branch has therefore been dead since it was introduced with commit 70ba381e1a43 ("nfs: add LOCALIO support"). Remove the never-taken FLUSH_SYNC branch along with the completion plumbing it was the sole user of: the struct nfs_local_fsync_ctx::done member, its initialization, and the complete() call in nfs_local_fsync_work(). With the branch gone the "how" parameter is unused, so drop it from nfs_local_commit() and its callers. No functional change.

2026-08-17NFS/localio: issue IO inline when not in a memory-reclaim contextMike Snitzer
Every LOCALIO read and write is currently bounced through the dedicated !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nfslocaliod_workqueue. That bounce is only actually required when the submitting context is a memory-reclaim context: LOCALIO issues IO directly into a stacked local filesystem (e.g. XFS) which may in turn flush its own !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue. Doing that from a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM worker (most importantly writeback's wb_workfn on bdi_wq) or an explicit PF_MEMALLOC reclaim task trips check_flush_dependency() and risks a forward-progress deadlock, which is why commit b9f5dd57f4a5 ("nfs/localio: use dedicated workqueues for filesystem read and write") introduced the intermediate workqueue. Outside of reclaim context -- ordinary application/task submission such as O_DIRECT or fsync-driven writeback -- the workqueue hop buys nothing and merely adds a context switch and scheduling latency per IO while discarding the NFS client's inherent application-context parallelism. Add current_is_workqueue_mem_reclaim(), which reports whether %current is a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM worker using the same predicate check_flush_dependency() warns on. Use it, together with the PF_MEMALLOC check, in the new nfs_local_defer_io() helper to decide per-IO whether nfs_local_do_read() and nfs_local_do_write() must defer to nfslocaliod_workqueue or may issue the IO inline. Buffered writeback continues to bounce (wb_workfn is a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM worker); O_DIRECT and app-context submission now run inline. Running nfs_local_call_write() inline is safe: it already saves and restores current->flags around the PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE|PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO it sets and scopes the file opener's creds. The async O_DIRECT completion path is likewise unaffected: when the underlying filesystem returns -EIOCBQUEUED, the kiocb ki_complete callback (nfs_local_read_aio_complete / nfs_local_write_aio_complete) can run in bottom-half context and so must still defer the pgio completion (nfs_local_pgio_release -> rpc_call_done) to nfsiod_workqueue via nfs_local_pgio_aio_complete(). That completion hop is independent of how the IO was submitted, and this change leaves it as-is; only the submission side stops unconditionally hopping through nfslocaliod_workqueue.

2026-08-17NFS: Fix delayed delegation return list handlingGuangshuo Li
The delayed delegation return handling added a separate delegations_delayed list to keep delegations whose return needs to be retried later. The delayed list is then spliced back to delegations_return by nfs_server_clear_delayed_delegations(), which also causes the state manager to retry the delegation return. However, nfs_end_delegation_return() still moves delayed delegations to delegations_return instead of delegations_delayed. As a result, the new delayed list is never populated, nfs_server_clear_delayed_delegations() always returns false, and NFS4CLNT_DELEGRETURN is not set again to drive a retry. Move delayed delegations to delegations_delayed so that the delayed return path can splice them back to delegations_return and schedule the retry as intended.

2026-08-17NFS: Verify symlink inode before caching targetZhangGuoDong
nfs_symlink() copies the symlink target into a folio before issuing the SYMLINK RPC. After a successful reply, it caches that folio in the instantiated inode mapping and assumes that the dentry now names a symlink. If the dentry is instantiated with a non-symlink inode, the raw symlink target folio can be inserted into the wrong mapping. When that inode is a directory, reclaim or unmount later calls nfs_readdir_clear_array() through nfs_dir_aops and interprets the symlink target as a readdir cache array, which can lead to invalid kfree() calls. A vmcore from a 4.19-based kernel showed the crash when reclaiming a directory mapping on unmount: Stack trace: nfs_readdir_clear_array+0x4d/0x70 [nfs] page_cache_free_page.isra.35+0x1a/0x90 delete_from_page_cache_batch+0x1cf/0x2c0 truncate_inode_pages_range+0x24d/0x910 [...] nfs_evict_inode+0x15/0x30 [nfs] evict+0x115/0x2b0 dispose_list+0x48/0x60 evict_inodes+0x16c/0x1b0 generic_shutdown_super+0x3f/0x120 nfs_kill_super+0x1b/0x40 [nfs] deactivate_locked_super+0x3f/0x70 cleanup_mnt+0x3b/0x80 The current code still has the same unchecked cache insertion pattern, so it may be susceptible to the same failure mode. Verify that the instantiated inode is a symlink before caching the target folio.

2026-08-17NFS: fix folio dereference before NULL check in nfs_inode_remove_request()Jiangshan Yi
nfs_inode_remove_request() obtains the folio for the head request via nfs_page_to_folio(), which returns NULL when the PG_FOLIO flag is not set on req->wb_head. The presence of the "if (likely(folio))" check shows the code already assumes folio can be NULL. However, folio was dereferenced before that check: folio = nfs_page_to_folio(req->wb_head); mapping = folio->mapping; /* deref */ spin_lock(&mapping->i_private_lock); if (likely(folio)) { /* too late */ folio->mapping is read (and mapping->i_private_lock is taken, and folio_end_dropbehind(folio) is called outside the check) before folio is validated, so a NULL folio would crash before the guard is ever reached, rendering the check useless. Move the folio->mapping read, the i_private_lock section and the folio_end_dropbehind() call inside the "if (likely(folio))" block so the folio is only dereferenced after it has been confirmed non-NULL. The behaviour is unchanged when folio is non-NULL. Signed-off-by: Jiangshan Yi <yijiangshan@kylinos.cn> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>
2026-08-17nfs4.2: open UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA files with O_DIRECTMike Snitzer
Honor the per-file UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA attribute by transparently opening such regular files with O_DIRECT, so reads and writes bypass the page cache as the attribute requires, without the application having to request O_DIRECT itself. This follows the model the specification describes: the attribute is "similar in intent to O_DIRECT" and clients "retain flexibility in how they satisfy the requirements" (draft-ietf-nfsv4-uncacheable-files Section 4.4, "Relationship to Direct I/O"), and its Implementation Status (Section 6) describes a prototype Linux client that "treats the attribute as an indication to use O_DIRECT-like behavior for file access". Introduce an NFS_CONTEXT_O_DIRECT open-context flag: nfs4_atomic_open() sets it when the resolved inode has uncacheable_file_data set (and the open is not O_APPEND), and the open paths nfs_atomic_open() and nfs4_file_open() apply O_DIRECT to the file when the flag is set. The I/O mode is thus selected at open time and is not changed for an already-open file: a later change to the attribute takes effect on the next open. The specification permits this -- a client that has already opened a file MAY continue with its existing caching behavior and apply the updated attribute to subsequent operations (Section 5). The delegation interaction in Section 4.3 was considered: it permits read caching to remain when another NFSv4.2 mechanism, such as a delegation, already ensures a consistent view of the file. That relaxation is optional ("may remain appropriate") and read-only -- it does not relax write-behind suppression (Section 4.1) or the WRITE durability invariant (Section 4.2). This implementation deliberately does not take it: an uncacheable file is opened O_DIRECT regardless of any delegation held, which is compliant (read caching is simply suppressed more aggressively than the Section 4.3 minimum) and avoids decoupling read vs write caching behind a single open flag. Relaxing reads under a delegation is left as a possible future optimization. Section 6 observes the benefit holds "for applications that issue well-formed I/O requests". That alignment caveat does not constrain the Linux NFS client's over-the-wire path: the client readily issues misaligned I/O using O_DIRECT over SunRPC to the remote NFS server. The only place a fallback from O_DIRECT to buffered I/O for misaligned I/O applies is NFS LOCALIO (fs/nfs/localio.c), which detects non-DIO-aligned I/O and falls back internally; that path is unaffected by this change.

2026-08-17nfs4.2: request UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA only for regular filesMike Snitzer
The UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA attribute applies only to regular files (NF4REG); per draft-ietf-nfsv4-uncacheable-files a server MUST reject a query of it on any other object type with NFS4ERR_INVAL. The previous commit decodes and tracks the attribute but does not gate it: the bit rides in the per-server attribute bitmask (server->attr_bitmask) and in the generic getattr request bitmap (nfs4_fattr_bitmap), so it would be requested for non-regular objects too -- e.g. a plain directory GETATTR, a LOOKUP that resolves to a directory, or a CREATE (which only ever makes non-regular objects). A strict server would fail those compounds. Gate the client accordingly: - Only set NFS_INO_INVALID_UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA on regular-file inodes. In particular, drop it from nfs4_update_changeattr_locked()'s force-revalidation aggregation: that helper only ever runs on directory inodes (its callers update a directory's change information after OPEN-create, REMOVE, RENAME and LINK), so it was setting the file-only bit on directories. - Gate the request by object type at the choke point nfs4_bitmap_copy_adjust(), which clears FATTR4_WORD2_UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA unless the target inode is a regular file (a NULL inode -- unknown object type -- clears it too). This already covers GETATTR, SETATTR and LINK; route LOOKUP, LOOKUPP and CREATE through it as well. - Type-gate nfs4_bitmask_set(), which translates NFS_INO_INVALID_UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA into a request for attr 87 in the getattr attached to WRITE, CLOSE and DELEGRETURN. WRITE and CLOSE only ever pass regular files, but DELEGRETURN passes whatever object held the delegation -- with directory delegation support that includes directories -- so request attr 87 there only for S_ISREG inodes. The bit is kept in server->attr_bitmask (it is server-supported, and OPEN still requests it via its regular-file-only open_bitmap), so no bespoke per-data-file bitmask plumbing is needed. The remaining getattr-bearing compounds are already safe: ACCESS and LAYOUTCOMMIT use server->cache_consistency_bitmask (no word2 attributes); READDIR does not encode the bit; and LOOKUP_ROOT, FSINFO, STATFS and PATHCONF use fixed bitmaps without it.

2026-08-17nfs4.2: add UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA attribute supportTom Haynes
Recognize the NFSv4.2 per-file UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA attribute (attr 87, draft-ietf-nfsv4-uncacheable-files): decode it via GETATTR, track per- exported-filesystem support, and record on the inode whether a regular file's data must not be cached. Acting on the attribute (opening such files O_DIRECT) is done by a subsequent change. If the NFSv4 server reports a regular file's UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA as true, it indicates the file's data must not be cached; the client records this in NFS_I(inode)->uncacheable_file_data for use by the I/O paths. The UNCACHEABLE_FILE_DATA attribute applies only to regular files (NF4REG); per the draft a server MUST reject a query of it on any other object type with NFS4ERR_INVAL.

2026-08-17NFSv4/flexfiles: report cancelled I/O as a layout errorBenjamin Coddington
When a layout is recalled or revoked the client cancels its in-flight I/O so the layout can be returned. The metadata server needs to learn that this I/O to the storage device did not complete, so that it can reconcile the affected mirror instance (or, if none remains, take other action). The cancellation completed with -EAGAIN, which ff_layout_io_track_ds_error() does not recognise: it fell through the switch and recorded nothing, so no error was reported to the server. -EAGAIN is overloaded in the RPC layer, so rather than key the reporting on it, cancel the I/O with -ECANCELED and map that to NFS4ERR_NXIO in ff_layout_io_track_ds_error() -- the status the client already reports for the transport errors that leave an in-flight write incomplete. The cancelled I/O is then reported to the server via LAYOUTERROR / LAYOUTRETURN. Unlike a genuine transport error, though, we aborted the I/O ourselves and have no evidence the device is at fault, so once the error is recorded we skip marking the device unreachable and forcing a further layout return. The retry disposition is unchanged from the original -EAGAIN cancellation: both NFS4ERR_NXIO and -ECANCELED are no-ops in ff_layout_async_handle_error(), which still resets the I/O to pNFS (or the MDS), so it is re-driven as before.

2026-08-17pNFS: honor clora_changed when recalling a layoutBenjamin Coddington
When the metadata server recalls a layout with clora_changed FALSE, the layout is not changing and the client may complete its modified writes to the storage devices before returning the layout (RFC 8881, Section 20.3.3). Only when clora_changed is TRUE -- the server is restriping, or a storage device has failed -- should the client stop writing to the storage devices and redirect through the metadata server. Since commit b739a5bd9d9f ("NFSv4/flexfiles: Cancel I/O if the layout is recalled or revoked") the client cancels in-flight I/O on every recall, regardless of clora_changed. For an unchanged recall this abandons writes whose data may already have reached the storage device; such a write can then land after the LAYOUTRETURN, which the server sees as a write without a layout. Pass the recall's clora_changed value through pnfs_mark_matching_lsegs_return() and only cancel in-flight I/O when the layout is actually changing. When it is not, the existing deferred return path waits for the in-flight writes to drain before sending the LAYOUTRETURN. Other callers, which are tearing down or returning the layout for their own reasons, continue to cancel as before.

The client decodes this into cbl_layoutchanged, but it is otherwise invisible.

2026-08-17NFSv4: remove callback IDR entry on client allocation failureRuoyu Wang
nfs4_alloc_client() allocates an NFSv4.0 callback identifier before it finishes setting up the client. If any later initialization step fails, the error path frees the nfs_client directly with nfs_free_client(). That bypasses nfs_put_client(), which is where the callback IDR entry is removed during normal teardown. A failed allocation can therefore leave cb_ident_idr pointing at a freed nfs_client. A later NFSv4.0 callback lookup by cb_ident would find the stale pointer and take a reference to it. Make the callback IDR removal helper callable by the allocation failure path, and remove the callback identifier before freeing the client. This was found by a local static-analysis checker for publish-before-free lifetime bugs and confirmed by manual inspection.

Thus they are replaced with the more recent clean_and_wake_up_bit() global helper which describes accurately its effects at the call and still specifies the cleared bit.

The abort_on_kill path in request_wait_answer() calls fuse_abort_conn() and returns without waiting for FR_FINISHED. If fuse_dev_do_write() is concurrently processing the same request (FR_LOCKED set), the caller frees req->args while it is still being accessed, causing a use-after-free.

It fixes a bunch of old bugs, reworks the locking, and then extends the format registry so a binary type can be matched programmatically and its interpreter computed per exec instead of being a fixed string recorded at registration time. This allows nixos and other to e.g., implement relocatable binaries meaning the interpreter/dynamic loader can be determined programatically, say found relative to the binary. The mechanism is flexible and can support other policies: - Handler lookup is now an rcu walk. An exec that matches no binfmt_misc entry should now never write to a shared cacheline - remove the VERBOSE_STATUS and USE_DEBUG compile time toggles - convert the entry file to a seq_file which simplifies things quite a bit and kills a lot of custom logic - make flags proper enums - rename struct Node to binfmt_misc_entry - allow entries to be removed with unlink(2) - Add the ability to attach bpf programs to binfmt_misc entries so it's possible to dynamically choose the execution environment such as the loader or interpreter on a per binary basis. A handler is an instance of a binfmt_misc_ops struct_ops with a ->match() and a ->load() program. match() decides from the entry lookup walk whether the handler applies under the same registration-order. It can read file content as needed not only the prefetched 256 bytes in bprm->buf. load() then selects the interpreter and stages it through the new bpf_binprm_set_interp(), bpf_binprm_set_interp_arg() and bpf_binprm_set_flags() kfuncs. Handlers are published in a registry keyed by the registering task's user namespace and activated through the existing text interface with a new 'B' type carrying the handler name: echo ':origin:B::::nix:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register The permission and namespacing model is unchanged. Activating a handler requires the same write access to an instance as any other registration. A container mounting its own instance escapes the host's entries exactly as before. The computed interpreter is opened with open_exec() under the caller's credentials and goes through full LSM vetting as the next binprm level. A program can only ever redirect the caller to something the caller could exec anyway. - Two dispatch modes are added. So far the chosen interpreter owns the whole process identity (argv[0], /proc/pid/cmdline, /proc/self/exe all name interpreter information). So relocatable find the dynamic linker instead. Also a binary passed to execveat() as an inaccessible O_CLOEXEC fd cannot run at all and gdb trips because AT_ENTRY and AT_PHDR do not match the exe file. So PIE symbols are unrelocated. This adds transparent dispatch which allows the interpreter to load the binary through AT_EXECFD and leaves the argument vector exactly as the caller built it and labels mm->exe_file and comm with the binary. It also raises the AT_FLAGS_TRANSPARENT_INTERP aux vector bit. The interpreter keeps control of mapping the binary. The second mode is loader substitution. This allows a binary to be executed natively and only the interpreter to be changed. - Last, interpreters can be bound at registration time. Each interpreter is opened by its own write with the credentials the entry file was opened with. The program picks one per exec with bpf_binprm_select_interp().

Each cgroup_iter_memcg subtest touches 1024 pages and expects the matching memcg counter to be non-zero. On a host with many CPUs it reads zero instead: test_anon:FAIL:final anon mapped val: actual 0 <= expected 0 memcg stats are cached per-cpu and only become visible once the periodic flusher runs (FLUSH_TIME, 2s), or once pending updates cross MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH * num_online_cpus(). That threshold is 512 pages at 8 CPUs but 8192 at 128, so a single pass no longer reaches it and bpf_mem_cgroup_flush_stats() returns without flushing anything. Retry the stat generation, sleeping in between, so that a flusher cycle is always covered. Sleep before dropping the mapping, so that a flusher cycle landing in the sleep observes the mapped state. nr_anon_mapped and nr_file_mapped are rmap gauges, and unmapping first would post a matching negative delta for the flusher to aggregate to a net zero. test_file asserts on both nr_file_pages and nr_file_mapped, which have different lifetimes, as page cache pages outlive the mapping.

2026-08-17fuse: add zero-copy over io-uringJoanne Koong
Implement zero-copy in fuse io-uring to eliminate memory copies between the application, kernel, and server for read/write operations. The server can directly access client pages or page cache folios without copying data through an intermediary buffer. When a fuse request arrives, the kernel registers the relevant pages into a sparse slot in the server's io_uring registered buffer table. The server can then operate on these pages directly using io-uring fixed buffer operations (eg read_fixed/write_fixed) and the kernel unregisters these pages when the request completes. Non-page-backed args (eg op out headers) will go through the payload buffer as normal. The server can specify which open files should have their reads/writes go through zero-copy, by setting the FOPEN_IO_URING_ZERO_COPY flag when servicing opens. This requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN and bufpools. This is gated behind CAP_SYS_ADMIN because zero-copy allows the server direct access to the client's underlying pages, rather than operating on an intermediary buffer that the contents of the client's pages were copied into or on page cache folios. The request flow for the zero-copy direct-io write path (client writes data, server reads it) is as follows: ======================================================================= | Kernel | FUSE server | | | "write(fd, buf, 1MB)" | | | | >sys_write() | | >fuse_file_write_iter() | | >fuse_send_one() | | [req->args->in_pages = true] | | [folios hold client write data] | | | | >fuse_uring_copy_to_ring() | | >copy_header_to_ring(IN_OUT) | | [memcpy fuse_in_header] | | >copy_header_to_ring(OP) | | [memcpy write_in header] | | | | >fuse_uring_args_to_ring() | | >setup_fuse_copy_state() | | [skip_folio_copy = true] | | | | >fuse_uring_set_up_zero_copy() | | [folio_get for each client folio] | | [build bio_vec array from folios] | | >io_buffer_register_bvec() | | [register pages at ent->zero_copy_index] | | [ent->zero_copied = true] | | | | >fuse_copy_args() | | [skip_folio_copy => return 0 | | for page arg, skip data copy] | | | | >copy_header_to_ring(RING_ENT) | | [memcpy ent_in_out] | | >io_uring_cmd_done() | | | | | [CQE received] | | | | [issue io_uring READ at | | ent->zero_copy_index] | | [reads directly from | |client's pages (ZERO_COPY)] | | | | [write data to backing | | store] | | [submit COMMIT AND FETCH] | | | >fuse_uring_commit_fetch() | | >fuse_uring_commit() | | >fuse_uring_copy_from_ring() | | >fuse_uring_req_end() | | >io_buffer_unregister(ent->zero_copy_index) | | [unregister pages from index] | | >fuse_zero_copy_release() | | [folio_put for each folio] | | [ent->zero_copied = false] | | >fuse_request_end() | | [wake up client] | The zero-copy read path is analogous. Some requests may have both page-backed args and non-page-backed args. For these requests, the page-backed args are zero-copied while the non-page-backed args are copied to the buffer selected from the buffer pool: zero-copy: pages registered via io_buffer_register_bvec() non-page-backed: copied to payload buffer via fuse_copy_args() For a request whose payload is zero-copied, the registration/unregistration path looks like: register: fuse_uring_set_up_zero_copy() folio_get() for each folio io_buffer_register_bvec(ent->zero_copy_index) unregister: fuse_uring_req_end() io_buffer_unregister(ent->zero_copy_index) -> fuse_zero_copy_release() callback folio_put() for each folio Please note that on abort for in-flight zero-copied requests that have been sent to userspace, the registered bvec slot remains occupied and its folios remain pinned until the io-uring ring is destroyed, at which point io-uring unregisters all buffers and the fuse_zero_copy_release() callback drops the folio references. Unregistering at teardown would require operating on the ring context directly, whose validity is hard to ascertain; this is deemed not worth the complexity for the abort race, since everything is freed when the ring is torn down. The throughput improvement from zero-copy depends on how much of the per-request latency is spent on data copying vs backing I/O. The gain comes from eliminating the payload-buffer memcpy, but accessing the zero-copied pages requires the server to issue the read/write as an IORING_OP_READ/WRITE_FIXED operation. The benefit is largest when the mempcy is a meaningful fraction of per-request latency while backing i/o is still noticable enough that the extra io-uring op's overhead doesn't dominate.

On a device-bound NVMe (~2 GB/s reads) the read gain shrinks to ~10-16% (and no measurable gains for writes), as backing I/O rather than the eliminated copy dominates latency. The benefit overall scales with how much of the per-request latency is the data copy versus backing I/O.

2026-08-17fuse: support registered buffer pools in io-uringJoanne Koong
Allow servers to use a buffer pool that is also registered through io-uring. When the server registers a buffer pool with io-uring, the pages backing the pool are pinned upfront. This eliminates the overhead of pinning/unpinning user pages and translating virtual addresses per i/o request. This also allows servers to use the same registered memory for subsequent backing store I/O (eg read_fixed/write_fixed), keeping data in the same pinned pages without additional pinning or mapping overhead required. To use this, the server needs to set the FUSE_URING_REGISTERED_BUFPOOL flag when adding a bufpool through the FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_ADD_BUFPOOL cmd. For every sqe submitted (including the one for adding the bufpool), it should set sqe->uring_cmd_flags to include IORING_URING_CMD_FIXED, and pass in the index where the registered bufpool resides to sqe->buf_index. Benchmarked with passthrough_hp (--nopassthrough, q_depth=8) on a 2-socket Intel Xeon Gold 6138 (40 cores / 80 threads), using fio (sync engine, bs=1M, O_DIRECT, numjobs=2, 30s run + 10s ramp, 3 runs) where direct-I/O throughput is against a RAM-backed (tmpfs) source (backing I/O is not the bottleneck): baseline registered buffers direct read ~5.1 GB/s ~5.4 GB/s (+~5%) direct write ~3.4 GB/s ~4.8 GB/s (+~45%) Registered buffers bring up the write path speed up closer to speed of reads. There isn't much improvement for reads because it is already fast enough where it's at the copy-bound ceiling (surpassing that requires doing zero-copy). On a device-bound NVMe though, the differences are within noise, as backing I/O dominates per-request latency.

2026-08-17fuse: add io-uring buffer poolsJoanne Koong
Right now, ents and buffers are tightly coupled in fuse io-uring where each entry has its own dedicated payload buffer, requiring N buffers for N entries where each buffer must be large enough to accomodate the maximum payload size. This is suboptimal as most request types (lookup, open, release, getattr, etc) require vastly less bytes than the maximum payload size and some requests (unlink, rmdir, fsync, flush, etc) do not require payload buffers at all. Instead of requiring a 1:1 coupling between ents and payload buffers, allow the server to pass in a buffer pool (a contiguous chunk of memory) that the kernel will use as it wishes for servicing ents/requests. Entries only reserve a "buffer" from the pool while actively processing a request that requires a payload buffer. This decoupling and letting the kernel delegate memory from the pool for requests allows the kernel to optimize memory usage and reduces the memory usage requirements needed to use fuse-over-io-uring. A pool is registered per queue with the new FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_ADD_BUFPOOL command. The server passes the pool's base address and length in fuse_uring_cmd_req.bufpool.{uaddr,len}. Internally, the kernel splits the region into buffers of ring->max_payload_sz bytes each (nr_bufs = pool len / max_payload_sz). A queue commits to a payload mode on first use: registering an entry that carries its own payload selects the legacy per-entry mode, while ADD_BUFPOOL selects pool mode. The two are mutually exclusive, so ADD_BUFPOOL must be issued before any payload-carrying entries are registered on that queue. The queue must have been created before the bufpool is added, through the FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_ADD_QUEUE command. The kernel tracks free buffers with a bitmap (a set bit marks a free buffer). On dispatch, a request that needs a payload claims a free buffer (find_first_bit + clear). A request that needs none claims nothing. The buffer's byte offset within the pool is reported to the server in the new fuse_uring_ent_in_out.offset field so that the server can locate the payload. On completion the buffer is returned to the pool or reused directly if the next request on that entry also has a payload. The FUSE_HAS_IO_URING_BUFPOOL flag advertises kernel support to the server for bufpools.

2026-08-17fuse: add FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_ADD_QUEUEJoanne Koong
fuse-over-io-uring queues are currently created lazily, as a side effect of the first FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_REGISTER command for a given qid. This ties queue creation to entry registration. Add a FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_ADD_QUEUE command so a server can create a queue explicitly, decoupling queue setup from entry registration. This is additionally a prerequisite for FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_ADD_BUFPOOL, which attaches a buffer pool to an existing queue and therefore needs the queue to have been created first.

2026-08-17fuse: decouple fuse_ring creation from ent registrationJoanne Koong
Currently, the connection's fuse_ring is created lazily on the first FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_REGISTER command. A server registers entries from one thread per queue (one per CPU) and those threads issue their first REGISTER command concurrently. They then race to create the single per-connection fuse_ring, which required open-coded handling in fuse_uring_create() to detect and protect against concurrent creations. Decouple fuse_ring creation from ent registration and move it to FUSE_INIT reply processing after a server has negotiated and set FUSE_OVER_IO_URING. The ring is published before the connection is marked initialized. fuse_uring_register() no longer creates the ring and it instead uses the ring set up at init time.
