da315f6e03 fuse update for 4.18
The most interesting part of this update is user namespace support, mostly
 done by Eric Biederman.  This enables safe unprivileged fuse mounts within
 a user namespace.
 
 There are also a couple of fixes for bugs found by syzbot and miscellaneous
 fixes and cleanups.

->get_poll_head returns the waitqueue that the poll operation is going
to sleep on.  Note that this means we can only use a single waitqueue
for the poll, unlike some current drivers that use two waitqueues for
different events.  But now that we have keyed wakeups and heavily use
those for poll there aren't that many good reason left to keep the
multiple waitqueues, and if there are any ->poll is still around, the
driver just won't support aio poll.

12d28f7955 fscrypt: add Speck128/256 support
fscrypt currently only supports AES encryption.  However, many low-end
mobile devices have older CPUs that don't have AES instructions, e.g.
the ARMv8 Cryptography Extensions.  Currently, user data on such devices
is not encrypted at rest because AES is too slow, even when the NEON
bit-sliced implementation of AES is used.  Unfortunately, it is
infeasible to encrypt these devices at all when AES is the only option.

Therefore, this patch updates fscrypt to support the Speck block cipher,
which was recently added to the crypto API.  The C implementation of
Speck is not especially fast, but Speck can be implemented very
efficiently with general-purpose vector instructions, e.g. ARM NEON.
For example, on an ARMv7 processor, we measured the NEON-accelerated
Speck128/256-XTS at 69 MB/s for both encryption and decryption, while
AES-256-XTS with the NEON bit-sliced implementation was only 22 MB/s
encryption and 19 MB/s decryption.

There are multiple variants of Speck.  This patch only adds support for
Speck128/256, which is the variant with a 128-bit block size and 256-bit
key size -- the same as AES-256.  This is believed to be the most secure
variant of Speck, and it's only about 6% slower than Speck128/128.
Speck64/128 would be at least 20% faster because it has 20% rounds, and
it can be even faster on CPUs that can't efficiently do the 64-bit
operations needed for Speck128.  However, Speck64's 64-bit block size is
not preferred security-wise.  ARM NEON also supports the needed 64-bit
operations even on 32-bit CPUs, resulting in Speck128 being fast enough
for our targeted use cases so far.

The chosen modes of operation are XTS for contents and CTS-CBC for
filenames.  These are the same modes of operation that fscrypt defaults
to for AES.  Note that as with the other fscrypt modes, Speck will not
be used unless userspace chooses to use it.  Nor are any of the existing
modes (which are all AES-based) being removed, of course.

We intentionally don't make CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION select
CONFIG_CRYPTO_SPECK, so people will have to enable Speck support
themselves if they need it.  This is because we shouldn't bloat the
FS_ENCRYPTION dependencies with every new cipher, especially ones that
aren't recommended for most users.  Moreover, CRYPTO_SPECK is just the
generic implementation, which won't be fast enough for many users; in
practice, they'll need to enable CRYPTO_SPECK_NEON to get acceptable
performance.

More details about our choice of Speck can be found in our patches that
added Speck to the crypto API, and the follow-on discussion threads.
We're planning a publication that explains the choice in more detail.
But briefly, we can't use ChaCha20 as we previously proposed, since it
would be insecure to use a stream cipher in this context, with potential
IV reuse during writes on f2fs and/or on wear-leveling flash storage.

We also evaluated many other lightweight and/or ARX-based block ciphers
such as Chaskey-LTS, RC5, LEA, CHAM, Threefish, RC6, NOEKEON, SPARX, and
XTEA.  However, all had disadvantages vs. Speck, such as insufficient
performance with NEON, much less published cryptanalysis, or an
insufficient security level.  Various design choices in Speck make it
perform better with NEON than competing ciphers while still having a
security margin similar to AES, and in the case of Speck128 also the
same available security levels.  Unfortunately, Speck does have some
political baggage attached -- it's an NSA designed cipher, and was
rejected from an ISO standard (though for context, as far as I know none
of the above-mentioned alternatives are ISO standards either).
Nevertheless, we believe it is a good solution to the problem from a
technical perspective.

Certain algorithms constructed from ChaCha or the ChaCha permutation,
such as MEM (Masked Even-Mansour) or HPolyC, may also meet our
performance requirements.  However, these are new constructions that
need more time to receive the cryptographic review and acceptance needed
to be confident in their security.  HPolyC hasn't been published yet,
and we are concerned that MEM makes stronger assumptions about the
underlying permutation than the ChaCha stream cipher does.  In contrast,
the XTS mode of operation is relatively well accepted, and Speck has
over 70 cryptanalysis papers.  Of course, these ChaCha-based algorithms
can still be added later if they become ready.

The best known attack on Speck128/256 is a differential cryptanalysis
attack on 25 of 34 rounds with 2^253 time complexity and 2^125 chosen
plaintexts, i.e. only marginally faster than brute force.  There is no
known attack on the full 34 rounds.

c04d2cb200 ipconfig: Write NTP server IPs to /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers
Distributed filesystems are most effective when the server and client
clocks are synchronised. Embedded devices often use NFS for their
root filesystem but typically do not contain an RTC, so the clocks of
the NFS server and the embedded device will be out-of-sync when the root
filesystem is mounted (and may not be synchronised until late in the
boot process).

Extend ipconfig with the ability to export IP addresses of NTP servers
it discovers to /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers. They can be supplied as
follows:

 - If ipconfig is configured manually via the "ip=" or "nfsaddrs="
   kernel command line parameters, one NTP server can be specified in
   the new "<ntp0-ip>" parameter.
 - If ipconfig is autoconfigured via DHCP, request DHCP option 42 in
   the DHCPDISCOVER message, and record the IP addresses of up to three
   NTP servers sent by the responding DHCP server in the subsequent
   DHCPOFFER message.

ipconfig will only write the NTP server IP addresses it discovers to
/proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers, one per line (in the order received from
the DHCP server, if DHCP autoconfiguration is used); making use of these
NTP servers is the responsibility of a user space process (e.g. an
initrd/initram script that invokes an NTP client before mounting an NFS
root filesystem).

660de409e2 ipconfig: Document setting of NIS domain name
ic_do_bootp_ext() is responsible for parsing the "ip=" and "nfsaddrs="
kernel parameters. If a "." character is found in parameter 4 (the
client's hostname), everything before the first "." is used as the
hostname, and everything after it is used as the NIS domain name (but
not necessarily the DNS domain name).

Document this behaviour in Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsroot.txt,
as it is not made explicit.

24844fd339 Merge branch 'mm-rst' into docs-next
Mike Rapoport says:

  These patches convert files in Documentation/vm to ReST format, add an
  initial index and link it to the top level documentation.

  There are no contents changes in the documentation, except few spelling
  fixes. The relatively large diffstat stems from the indentation and
  paragraph wrapping changes.

  I've tried to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, but I could
  miss some places that needed markup and add some markup where it was not
  necessary.

6f8880d8e6 afs: Implement @sys substitution handling
Implement the AFS feature by which @sys at the end of a pathname component
may be substituted for one of a list of values, typically naming the
operating system.  Up to 16 alternatives may be specified and these are
tried in turn until one works.  Each network namespace has[*] a separate
independent list.

Upon creation of a new network namespace, the list of values is
initialised[*] to a single OpenAFS-compatible string representing arch type
plus "_linux26".  For example, on x86_64, the sysname is "amd64_linux26".

[*] Or will, once network namespace support is finalised in kAFS.

The list may be set by:

	# for i in foo bar linux-x86_64; do echo $i; done >/proc/fs/afs/sysname

for which separate writes to the same fd are amalgamated and applied on
close.  The LF character may be used as a separator to specify multiple
items in the same write() call.

The list may be cleared by:

	# echo >/proc/fs/afs/sysname

and read by:

	# cat /proc/fs/afs/sysname
	foo
	bar
	linux-x86_64

Merge tag 'fscache-next-20180406' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs

Pull fscache updates from David Howells:
 "Three patches that fix some of AFS's usage of fscache:

   (1) Need to invalidate the cache if a foreign data change is detected
       on the server.

   (2) Move the vnode ID uniquifier (equivalent to i_generation) from
       the auxiliary data to the index key to prevent a race between
       file delete and a subsequent file create seeing the same index
       key.

   (3) Need to retire cookies that correspond to files that we think got
       deleted on the server.

  Four patches to fix some things in fscache and cachefiles:

   (4) Fix a couple of checker warnings.

   (5) Correctly indicate to the end-of-operation callback whether an
       operation completed or was cancelled.

   (6) Add a check for multiple cookie relinquishment.

   (7) Fix a path through the asynchronous write that doesn't wake up a
       waiter for a page if the cache decides not to write that page,
       but discards it instead.

  A couple of patches to add tracepoints to fscache and cachefiles:

   (8) Add tracepoints for cookie operators, object state machine
       execution, cachefiles object management and cachefiles VFS
       operations.

   (9) Add tracepoints for fscache operation management and page
       wrangling.

  And then three development patches:

  (10) Attach the index key and auxiliary data to the cookie, pass this
       information through various fscache-netfs API functions and get
       rid of the callbacks to the netfs to get it.

       This means that the cache can get at this information, even if
       the netfs goes away. It also means that the cache can be lazy in
       updating the coherency data.

  (11) Pass the object data size through various fscache-netfs API
       rather than calling back to the netfs for it, and store the value
       in the object.

       This makes it easier to correctly resize the object, as the size
       is updated on writes to the cache, rather than calling back out
       to the netfs.

  (12) Maintain a catalogue of allocated cookies. This makes it possible
       to catch cookie collision up front rather than down in the bowels
       of the cache being run from a service thread from the object
       state machine.

       This will also make it possible in the future to reconnect to a
       cookie that's not gone dead yet because it's waiting for
       finalisation of the storage and also make it possible to bring
       cookies online if the cache is added after the cookie has been
       obtained"

ee1235a9a0 fscache: Pass object size in rather than calling back for it
Pass the object size in to fscache_acquire_cookie() and
fscache_write_page() rather than the netfs providing a callback by which it
can be received.  This makes it easier to update the size of the object
when a new page is written that extends the object.

The current object size is also passed by fscache to the check_aux
function, obviating the need to store it in the aux data.

274c0e74e5 f2fs-for-4.17-rc1
In this round, we've mainly focused on performance tuning and critical bug fixes
 occurred in low-end devices. Sheng Yong introduced lost_found feature to keep
 missing files during recovery instead of thrashing them. We're preparing coming
 fsverity implementation. And, we've got more features to communicate with users
 for better performance. In low-end devices, some memory-related issues were
 fixed, and subtle race condtions and corner cases were addressed as well.
 
 Enhancement:
  - large nat bitmaps for more free node ids
  - add three block allocation policies to pass down write hints given by user
  - expose extension list to user and introduce hot file extension
  - tune small devices seamlessly for low-end devices
  - set readdir_ra by default
  - give more resources under gc_urgent mode regarding to discard and cleaning
  - introduce fsync_mode to enforce posix or not
  - nowait aio support
  - add lost_found feature to keep dangling inodes
  - reserve bits for future fsverity feature
  - add test_dummy_encryption for FBE
 
 Bug fix:
  - don't use highmem for dentry pages
  - align memory boundary for bitops
  - truncate preallocated blocks in write errors
  - guarantee i_times on fsync call
  - clear CP_TRIMMED_FLAG correctly
  - prevent node chain loop during recovery
  - avoid data race between atomic write and background cleaning

 "In this round, we've mainly focused on performance tuning and critical
  bug fixes occurred in low-end devices. Sheng Yong introduced
  lost_found feature to keep missing files during recovery instead of
  thrashing them. We're preparing coming fsverity implementation. And,
  we've got more features to communicate with users for better
  performance. In low-end devices, some memory-related issues were
  fixed, and subtle race condtions and corner cases were addressed as
  well.

  Enhancements:
   - large nat bitmaps for more free node ids
   - add three block allocation policies to pass down write hints given by user
   - expose extension list to user and introduce hot file extension
   - tune small devices seamlessly for low-end devices
   - set readdir_ra by default
   - give more resources under gc_urgent mode regarding to discard and cleaning
   - introduce fsync_mode to enforce posix or not
   - nowait aio support
   - add lost_found feature to keep dangling inodes
   - reserve bits for future fsverity feature
   - add test_dummy_encryption for FBE

  Bug fixes:
   - don't use highmem for dentry pages
   - align memory boundary for bitops
   - truncate preallocated blocks in write errors
   - guarantee i_times on fsync call
   - clear CP_TRIMMED_FLAG correctly
   - prevent node chain loop during recovery
   - avoid data race between atomic write and background cleaning
   - avoid unnecessary selinux violation warnings on resgid option
   - GFP_NOFS to avoid deadlock in quota and read paths
   - fix f2fs_skip_inode_update to allow i_size recovery

402cb8dda9 fscache: Attach the index key and aux data to the cookie
Attach copies of the index key and auxiliary data to the fscache cookie so
that:

 (1) The callbacks to the netfs for this stuff can be eliminated.  This
     can simplify things in the cache as the information is still
     available, even after the cache has relinquished the cookie.

 (2) Simplifies the locking requirements of accessing the information as we
     don't have to worry about the netfs object going away on us.

 (3) The cache can do lazy updating of the coherency information on disk.
     As long as the cache is flushed before reboot/poweroff, there's no
     need to update the coherency info on disk every time it changes.

 (4) Cookies can be hashed or put in a tree as the index key is easily
     available.  This allows:

     (a) Checks for duplicate cookies can be made at the top fscache layer
     	 rather than down in the bowels of the cache backend.

     (b) Caching can be added to a netfs object that has a cookie if the
     	 cache is brought online after the netfs object is allocated.

A certain amount of space is made in the cookie for inline copies of the
data, but if it won't fit there, extra memory will be allocated for it.

The downside of this is that live cache operation requires more memory.

9122eed528 ceph: quota: report root dir quota usage in statfs
This commit changes statfs default behaviour when reporting usage
statistics.  Instead of using the overall filesystem usage, statfs now
reports the quota for the filesystem root, if ceph.quota.max_bytes has
been set for this inode.  If quota hasn't been set, it falls back to the
old statfs behaviour.

A new mount option is also added ('noquotadf') to disable this behaviour.

fb18a57568 ceph: quota: add initial infrastructure to support cephfs quotas
This patch adds the infrastructure required to support cephfs quotas as it
is currently implemented in the ceph fuse client.  Cephfs quotas can be
set on any directory, and can restrict the number of bytes or the number
of files stored beneath that point in the directory hierarchy.

Quotas are set using the extended attributes 'ceph.quota.max_files' and
'ceph.quota.max_bytes', and can be removed by setting these attributes to
'0'.

93cf93f17c f2fs: introduce mount option for fsync mode
Commit "0a007b97aad6"(f2fs: recover directory operations by fsync)
fixed xfstest generic/342 case, but it also increased the written
data and caused the performance degradation. In most cases, there's
no need to do so heavy fsync actually.

So we introduce new mount option "fsync_mode={posix,strict}" to
control the policy of fsync. "fsync_mode=posix" is set by default,
and means that f2fs uses a light fsync, which follows POSIX semantics.
And "fsync_mode=strict" means that it's a heavy fsync, which behaves
in line with xfs, ext4 and btrfs, where generic/342 will pass, but
the performance will regress.

4d673da145 afs: Support the AFS dynamic root
Support the AFS dynamic root which is a pseudo-volume that doesn't connect
to any server resource, but rather is just a root directory that
dynamically creates mountpoint directories where the name of such a
directory is the name of the cell.

Such a mount can be created thus:

	mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn

Dynamic root superblocks aren't shared except by bind mounts and
propagation.  Cell root volumes can then be mounted by referring to them by
name, e.g.:

	ls /afs/grand.central.org/
	ls /afs/.grand.central.org/

The kernel will upcall to consult the DNS if the address wasn't supplied
directly.

Highlights:
 
  - Enable support for memory protection keys aka "pkeys" on Power7/8/9 when
    using the hash table MMU.
 
  - Extend our interrupt soft masking to support masking PMU interrupts as well
    as "normal" interrupts, and then use that to implement local_t for a ~4x
    speedup vs the current atomics-based implementation.
 
  - A new driver "ocxl" for "Open Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface
    (OpenCAPI)" devices.
 
  - Support for new device tree properties on PowerVM to describe hotpluggable
    memory and devices.
 
  - Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 64-bit VDSO.
 
  - Freescale updates from Scott:
      "Contains fixes for CPM GPIO and an FSL PCI erratum workaround, plus a
       minor cleanup patch."
 
 As well as quite a lot of other changes all over the place, and small fixes and
 cleanups as always.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Highlights:

   - Enable support for memory protection keys aka "pkeys" on Power7/8/9
     when using the hash table MMU.

   - Extend our interrupt soft masking to support masking PMU interrupts
     as well as "normal" interrupts, and then use that to implement
     local_t for a ~4x speedup vs the current atomics-based
     implementation.

   - A new driver "ocxl" for "Open Coherent Accelerator Processor
     Interface (OpenCAPI)" devices.

   - Support for new device tree properties on PowerVM to describe
     hotpluggable memory and devices.

   - Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 64-bit
     VDSO.

   - Freescale updates from Scott: fixes for CPM GPIO and an FSL PCI
     erratum workaround, plus a minor cleanup patch.

  As well as quite a lot of other changes all over the place, and small
  fixes and cleanups as always.

ab486bc9a5 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Add a console_msg_format command line option:

     The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
     value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
     level>[timestamp] text" format.

     This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
     example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
     at hands.

 - Reduce the risk of softlockup:

     Pass the console owner in a busy loop.

     This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
     Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
     the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
     On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
     a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
     console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
     the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
     waiter.

     The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
     Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
     when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
     much to flush.

     There is increasing number of people having problems with
     printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
     solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
     direction.

 - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():

     This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
     to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
     This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
     above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.

 - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:

     It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
     descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
     transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.

     Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
     a special elf section and could be easily detected.

 - Remove printk_symbol() API:

     It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
     helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.

 - Remove redundant memsets:

     Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
     command line option.

1d65b1c886 powerpc/cell: Remove axonram driver
The QS21/22 IBM Cell blades had a southbridge chip called Axon. This
could have DDR DIMMs attached to it, though they were not directly
usable as RAM, instead they could be used as some sort of buffer, if
applications were written specifically to use the block device
provided by the driver.

Although the driver supposedly had direct access support, it was
apparently never tested (see commit 91117a2024 ("axonram: Fix bug in
direct_access")).

These machines have not been available for over 5 years, and were
never widely in use. It seems highly unlikely anyone is using this
driver.

In general we're happy to leave old drivers in the tree, but because
DAX is involved this driver is caught up in the ongoing work in that
area, but none of the DAX folks are able to test it.

So remove the driver, if any one *is* using it, we'll be happy to put
it back.

f168f1098d ovl: add support for "nfs_export" configuration
Introduce the "nfs_export" config, module and mount options.

The NFS export feature depends on the "index" feature and enables two
implicit overlayfs features: "index_all" and "verify_lower".
The "index_all" feature creates an index on copy up of every file and
directory. The "verify_lower" feature uses the full index to detect
overlay filesystems inconsistencies on lookup, like redirect from
multiple upper dirs to the same lower dir.

NFS export can be enabled for non-upper mount with no index. However,
because lower layer redirects cannot be verified with the index, enabling
NFS export support on an overlay with no upper layer requires turning off
redirect follow (e.g. "redirect_dir=nofollow").

The full index may incur some overhead on mount time, especially when
verifying that lower directory file handles are not stale.

NFS export support, full index and consistency verification will be
implemented by following patches.

f1ee616214 VFS: don't keep disconnected dentries on d_anon
The original purpose of the per-superblock d_anon list was to
keep disconnected dentries in the cache between consecutive
requests to the NFS server.  Dentries can be disconnected if
a client holds a file open and repeatedly performs IO on it,
and if the server drops the dentry, whether due to memory
pressure, server restart, or "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches".

This purpose was thwarted by commit 75a6f82a0d ("freeing unlinked
file indefinitely delayed") which caused disconnected dentries
to be freed as soon as their refcount reached zero.

This means that, when a dentry being used by nfsd gets disconnected, a
new one needs to be allocated for every request (unless requests
overlap).  As the dentry has no name, no parent, and no children,
there is little of value to cache.  As small memory allocations are
typically fast (from per-cpu free lists) this likely has little cost.

This means that the original purpose of s_anon is no longer relevant:
there is no longer any need to keep disconnected dentries on a list so
they appear to be hashed.

However, s_anon now has a new use.  When you mount an NFS filesystem,
the dentry stored in s_root is just a placebo.  The "real" root dentry
is allocated using d_obtain_root() and so it kept on the s_anon list.
I don't know the reason for this, but suspect it related to NFSv4
where a mount of "server:/some/path" require NFS to look up the root
filehandle on the server, then walk down "/some" and "/path" to get
the filehandle to mount.

Whatever the reason, NFS depends on the s_anon list and on
shrink_dcache_for_umount() pruning all dentries on this list.  So we
cannot simply remove s_anon.

We could just leave the code unchanged, but apart from that being
potentially confusing, the (unfair) bit-spin-lock which protects
s_anon can become a bottle neck when lots of disconnected dentries are
being created.

So this patch renames s_anon to s_roots, and stops storing
disconnected dentries on the list.  Only dentries obtained with
d_obtain_root() are now stored on this list.  There are many fewer of
these (only NFS and NILFS2 use the call, and only during filesystem
mount) so contention on the bit-lock will not be a problem.

Possibly an alternate solution should be found for NFS and NILFS2, but
that would require understanding their needs first.

438c84c2f0 ovl: don't follow redirects if redirect_dir=off
Overlayfs is following redirects even when redirects are disabled. If this
is unintentional (probably the majority of cases) then this can be a
problem.  E.g. upper layer comes from untrusted USB drive, and attacker
crafts a redirect to enable read access to otherwise unreadable
directories.

If "redirect_dir=off", then turn off following as well as creation of
redirects.  If "redirect_dir=follow", then turn on following, but turn off
creation of redirects (which is what "redirect_dir=off" does now).

This is a backward incompatible change, so make it dependent on a config
option.

c643401218 proc, coredump: add CoreDumping flag to /proc/pid/status
Right now there is no convenient way to check if a process is being
coredumped at the moment.

It might be necessary to recognize such state to prevent killing the
process and getting a broken coredump.  Writing a large core might take
significant time, and the process is unresponsive during it, so it might
be killed by timeout, if another process is monitoring and
killing/restarting hanging tasks.

We're getting a significant number of corrupted coredump files on
machines in our fleet, just because processes are being killed by
timeout in the middle of the core writing process.

We do have a process health check, and some agent is responsible for
restarting processes which are not responding for health check requests.
Writing a large coredump to the disk can easily exceed the reasonable
timeout (especially on an overloaded machine).

This flag will allow the agent to distinguish processes which are being
coredumped, extend the timeout for them, and let them produce a full
coredump file.

To provide an ability to detect if a process is in the state of being
coredumped, we can expose a boolean CoreDumping flag in
/proc/pid/status.

Example:
$ cat core.sh
  #!/bin/sh

  echo "|/usr/bin/sleep 10" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
  sleep 1000 &
  PID=$!

  cat /proc/$PID/status | grep CoreDumping
  kill -ABRT $PID
  sleep 1
  cat /proc/$PID/status | grep CoreDumping

$ ./core.sh
  CoreDumping:	0
  CoreDumping:	1

Merge tag 'afs-next-20171113' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs

Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
 "kAFS filesystem driver overhaul.

  The major points of the overhaul are:

   (1) Preliminary groundwork is laid for supporting network-namespacing
       of kAFS. The remainder of the namespacing work requires some way
       to pass namespace information to submounts triggered by an
       automount. This requires something like the mount overhaul that's
       in progress.

   (2) sockaddr_rxrpc is used in preference to in_addr for holding
       addresses internally and add support for talking to the YFS VL
       server. With this, kAFS can do everything over IPv6 as well as
       IPv4 if it's talking to servers that support it.

   (3) Callback handling is overhauled to be generally passive rather
       than active. 'Callbacks' are promises by the server to tell us
       about data and metadata changes. Callbacks are now checked when
       we next touch an inode rather than actively going and looking for
       it where possible.

   (4) File access permit caching is overhauled to store the caching
       information per-inode rather than per-directory, shared over
       subordinate files. Whilst older AFS servers only allow ACLs on
       directories (shared to the files in that directory), newer AFS
       servers break that restriction.

       To improve memory usage and to make it easier to do mass-key
       removal, permit combinations are cached and shared.

   (5) Cell database management is overhauled to allow lighter locks to
       be used and to make cell records autonomous state machines that
       look after getting their own DNS records and cleaning themselves
       up, in particular preventing races in acquiring and relinquishing
       the fscache token for the cell.

   (6) Volume caching is overhauled. The afs_vlocation record is got rid
       of to simplify things and the superblock is now keyed on the cell
       and the numeric volume ID only. The volume record is tied to a
       superblock and normal superblock management is used to mediate
       the lifetime of the volume fscache token.

   (7) File server record caching is overhauled to make server records
       independent of cells and volumes. A server can be in multiple
       cells (in such a case, the administrator must make sure that the
       VL services for all cells correctly reflect the volumes shared
       between those cells).

       Server records are now indexed using the UUID of the server
       rather than the address since a server can have multiple
       addresses.

   (8) File server rotation is overhauled to handle VMOVED, VBUSY (and
       similar), VOFFLINE and VNOVOL indications and to handle rotation
       both of servers and addresses of those servers. The rotation will
       also wait and retry if the server says it is busy.

   (9) Data writeback is overhauled. Each inode no longer stores a list
       of modified sections tagged with the key that authorised it in
       favour of noting the modified region of a page in page->private
       and storing a list of keys that made modifications in the inode.

       This simplifies things and allows other keys to be used to
       actually write to the server if a key that made a modification
       becomes useless.

  (10) Writable mmap() is implemented. This allows a kernel to be build
       entirely on AFS.

  Note that Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can
  be added back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998)"

af5b0f6a09 mm: consolidate page table accounting
Currently, we account page tables separately for each page table level,
but that's redundant -- we only make use of total memory allocated to
page tables for oom_badness calculation.  We also provide the
information to userspace, but it has dubious value there too.

This patch switches page table accounting to single counter.

mm->pgtables_bytes is now used to account all page table levels.  We use
bytes, because page table size for different levels of page table tree
may be different.

The change has user-visible effect: we don't have VmPMD and VmPUD
reported in /proc/[pid]/status.  Not sure if anybody uses them.  (As
alternative, we can always report 0 kB for them.)

OOM-killer report is also slightly changed: we now report pgtables_bytes
instead of nr_ptes, nr_pmd, nr_puds.

Apart from reducing number of counters per-mm, the benefit is that we
now calculate oom_badness() more correctly for machines which have
different size of page tables depending on level or where page tables
are less than a page in size.

The only downside can be debuggability because we do not know which page
table level could leak.  But I do not remember many bugs that would be
caught by separate counters so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.

Explicit locking in the fallback case provides a safe state of the

  encrypted filenames are hashed for indexed directories and how
  encrypted filenames are presented to userspace without the key.
  (This was changed just before release.)

For now the focus is on the design and user-visible API/behavior, not on
how to add encryption support to a filesystem --- since the internal API
is still pretty messy and any standalone documentation for it would
become outdated as things get refactored over time.

3587679d93 locking/atomics, doc/filesystems: Convert ACCESS_ONCE() references
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.

However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
distinction is critical to correct operation.

It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
script below. However, this doesn't handle documentation, leaving
references to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a
preparatory step, this patch converts the filesystems documentation to
use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.

85fdee1eef ovl: fix regression caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection
Enforcing exclusive ownership on upper/work dirs caused a docker
regression: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/34672.

Euan spotted the regression and pointed to the offending commit.
Vivek has brought the regression to my attention and provided this
reproducer:

Terminal 1:

  mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none
        merged/

Terminal 2:

  unshare -m

Terminal 1:

  umount merged
  mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none
        merged/
  mount: /root/overlay-testing/merged: none already mounted or mount point
         busy

To fix the regression, I replaced the error with an alarming warning.
With index feature enabled, mount does fail, but logs a suggestion to
override exclusive dir protection by disabling index.
Note that index=off mount does take the inuse locks, so a concurrent
index=off will issue the warning and a concurrent index=on mount will fail.

Documentation was updated to reflect this change.

c4142ed602 Driver core fixes for 4.14-rc4
Here are a few small fixes for 4.14-rc4.
 
 The removal of DRIVER_ATTR() was almost completed by 4.14-rc1, but one
 straggler made it in through some other tree (odds are, one of mine...)
 So there's a simple removal of the last user, and then finally the macro
 is removed from the tree.
 
 There's a fix for old crazy udev instances that insist on reloading a
 module when it is removed from the kernel due to the new uevents for
 bind/unbind.  This fixes the reported regression, hopefully some year in
 the future we can drop the workaround, once users update to the latest
 version, but I'm not holding my breath.
 
 And then there's a build fix for a linker warning, and a buffer overflow
 fix to match the PCI fixes you took through the PCI tree in the same
 area.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a few weeks while I've been
 traveling, sorry for the delay.

26b433d0da fscache: remove unused ->now_uncached callback
Patch series "Ranged pagevec lookup", v2.

In this series I make pagevec_lookup() update the index (to be
consistent with pagevec_lookup_tag() and also as a preparation for
ranged lookups), provide ranged variant of pagevec_lookup() and use it
in places where it makes sense.  This not only removes some common code
but is also a measurable performance win for some use cases (see patch
4/10) where radix tree is sparse and searching & grabing of a page after
the end of the range has measurable overhead.

This patch (of 10):

The callback doesn't ever get called.  Remove it.

91d25ba8a6 dax: use common 4k zero page for dax mmap reads
When servicing mmap() reads from file holes the current DAX code
allocates a page cache page of all zeroes and places the struct page

This has three major drawbacks:

1) It consumes memory unnecessarily. For every 4k page that is read via
   a DAX mmap() over a hole, we allocate a new page cache page. This
   means that if you read 1GiB worth of pages, you end up using 1GiB of
   zeroed memory. This is easily visible by looking at the overall
   memory consumption of the system or by looking at /proc/[pid]/smaps:

	7f62e72b3000-7f63272b3000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12   /root/dax/data
	Size:            1048576 kB
	Rss:             1048576 kB
	Pss:             1048576 kB
	Shared_Clean:          0 kB
	Shared_Dirty:          0 kB
	Private_Clean:   1048576 kB
	Private_Dirty:         0 kB
	Referenced:      1048576 kB
	Anonymous:             0 kB
	LazyFree:              0 kB
	AnonHugePages:         0 kB
	ShmemPmdMapped:        0 kB
	Shared_Hugetlb:        0 kB
	Private_Hugetlb:       0 kB
	Swap:                  0 kB
	SwapPss:               0 kB
	KernelPageSize:        4 kB
	MMUPageSize:           4 kB
	Locked:                0 kB

2) It is slower than using a common zero page because each page fault
   has more work to do. Instead of just inserting a common zero page we
   have to allocate a page cache page, zero it, and then insert it. Here
   are the average latencies of dax_load_hole() as measured by ftrace on
   a random test box:

    Old method, using zeroed page cache pages:	3.4 us
    New method, using the common 4k zero page:	0.8 us

   This was the average latency over 1 GiB of sequential reads done by
   this simple fio script:

     [global]
     size=1G
     filename=/root/dax/data
     fallocate=none
     [io]
     rw=read
     ioengine=mmap

3) The fact that we had to check for both DAX exceptional entries and
   for page cache pages in the radix tree made the DAX code more
   complex.

Solve these issues by following the lead of the DAX PMD code and using a
common 4k zero page instead.  As with the PMD code we will now insert a
DAX exceptional entry into the radix tree instead of a struct page
pointer which allows us to remove all the special casing in the DAX
code.

Note that we do still pretty aggressively check for regular pages in the
DAX radix tree, especially where we take action based on the bits set in
the page.  If we ever find a regular page in our radix tree now that
most likely means that someone besides DAX is inserting pages (which has
happened lots of times in the past), and we want to find that out early
and fail loudly.

This solution also removes the extra memory consumption.  Here is that
same /proc/[pid]/smaps after 1GiB of reading from a hole with the new
code:

	7f2054a74000-7f2094a74000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12   /root/dax/data
	Size:            1048576 kB
	Rss:                   0 kB
	Pss:                   0 kB
	Shared_Clean:          0 kB
	Shared_Dirty:          0 kB
	Private_Clean:         0 kB
	Private_Dirty:         0 kB
	Referenced:            0 kB
	Anonymous:             0 kB
	LazyFree:              0 kB
	AnonHugePages:         0 kB
	ShmemPmdMapped:        0 kB
	Shared_Hugetlb:        0 kB
	Private_Hugetlb:       0 kB
	Swap:                  0 kB
	SwapPss:               0 kB
	KernelPageSize:        4 kB
	MMUPageSize:           4 kB
	Locked:                0 kB

Overall system memory consumption is similarly improved.

Another major change is that we remove dax_pfn_mkwrite() from our fault
flow, and instead rely on the page fault itself to make the PTE dirty
and writeable.  The following description from the patch adding the
vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite() call explains this a little more:

   "To be able to use the common 4k zero page in DAX we need to have our
    PTE fault path look more like our PMD fault path where a PTE entry
    can be marked as dirty and writeable as it is first inserted rather
    than waiting for a follow-up dax_pfn_mkwrite() =>
    finish_mkwrite_fault() call.

    Right now we can rely on having a dax_pfn_mkwrite() call because we
    can distinguish between these two cases in do_wp_page():

            case 1: 4k zero page => writable DAX storage
            case 2: read-only DAX storage => writeable DAX storage

    This distinction is made by via vm_normal_page(). vm_normal_page()
    returns false for the common 4k zero page, though, just as it does
    for DAX ptes. Instead of special casing the DAX + 4k zero page case
    we will simplify our DAX PTE page fault sequence so that it matches
    our DAX PMD sequence, and get rid of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() helper.
    We will instead use dax_iomap_fault() to handle write-protection
    faults.

    This means that insert_pfn() needs to follow the lead of
    insert_pfn_pmd() and allow us to pass in a 'mkwrite' flag. If
    'mkwrite' is set insert_pfn() will do the work that was previously
    done by wp_page_reuse() as part of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() call path"
