The backing_file_write_iter() function, which is called
immediately after this code, already contains identical
logic to clear the IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP flag along with
the same explanatory comment. There is no need to duplicate
this operation in the overlayfs code.

This reverts commit 474b155adf3927d2c944423045757b54aa1ca4de.
This patch caused regression in ioctl_setflags(). Underlying filesystems
use EOPNOTSUPP to indicate that flag is not supported. This error is
also gets converted in ioctl_setflags(). Therefore, for unsupported
flags error changed from EOPNOSUPP to ENOIOCTLCMD.

Underlying case-insensitive filesystems casefolding is per directory,

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");

A rename operation can only rename within a single mount. Callers of
vfs_rename() must and do ensure this is the case.
So there is no point in having two mnt_idmaps in renamedata as they are
always the same. Only one of them is passed to ->rename in any case.
This patch replaces both with a single "mnt_idmap" and changes all
callers.

ovl wants a lookup which won't block on a fatal signal. It currently
uses down_write_killable() and then repeatedly calls to lookup_one()
The lock may not be needed if the name is already in the dcache and it
aids proposed future changes if the locking is kept internal to namei.c
So this patch adds lookup_one_positive_killable() which is like
lookup_one_positive() but will abort in the face of a fatal signal.
overlayfs is changed to use this.
Note that instead of always getting an exclusive lock, ovl now only gets
a shared lock, and only sometimes. The exclusive lock was never needed.
However down_read_killable() was only added in v4.15 but overlayfs started
using down_write_killable() here in v4.7.
Note that the linked list ->first_maybe_whiteout ->next_maybe_white is
local to the thread so there is no concurrency in that list which could
be threatened by removing the locking.

e8bd877fb76bb9f3 ("ovl: fix possible double unlink") added a sanity
check of !d_unhashed(child) to try to verify that child dentry was not
unlinked while parent dir was unlocked.
This "was not unlink" check has a false positive result in the case of
casefolded parent dir, because in that case, ovl_create_temp() returns
an unhashed dentry after ovl_create_real() gets an unhashed dentry from
ovl_lookup_upper() and makes it positive.
To avoid returning unhashed dentry from ovl_create_temp(), let
ovl_create_real() lookup again after making the newdentry positive,
so it always returns a hashed positive dentry (or an error).
This fixes the error in ovl_parent_lock() in ovl_check_rename_whiteout()
after ovl_create_temp() and allows mount of overlayfs with casefolding
enabled layers.

To add overlayfs support casefold layers, create a new function
ovl_casefold(), to be able to do case-insensitive strncmp().
ovl_casefold() allocates a new buffer and stores the casefolded version
of the string on it. If the allocation or the casefold operation fails,
fallback to use the original string.
The case-insentive name is then used in the rb-tree search/insertion
operation. If the name is found in the rb-tree, the name can be
discarded and the buffer is freed. If the name isn't found, it's then
stored at struct ovl_cache_entry to be used later.

commit 9d23967b18c6 ("ovl: simplify an error path in
ovl_copy_up_workdir()") introduced the helper ovl_cleanup_unlocked(),
which is later used in several following patches to re-acquire the parent
inode lock and unlink a dentry that was earlier found using lookup.
This helper was eventually renamed to ovl_cleanup().
The helper ovl_parent_lock() is used to re-acquire the parent inode lock.
After acquiring the parent inode lock, the helper verifies that the
dentry has not since been moved to another parent, but it failed to
verify that the dentry wasn't unlinked from the parent.
This means that now every call to ovl_cleanup() could potentially
race with another thread, unlinking the dentry to be cleaned up
underneath overlayfs and trigger a vfs assertion.

ovl_create_temp() treats "workdir" as a parent in which it creates an
object so it should use I_MUTEX_PARENT.
Prior to the commit identified below the lock was taken by the caller
which sometimes used I_MUTEX_PARENT and sometimes used I_MUTEX_NORMAL.
The use of I_MUTEX_NORMAL was incorrect but unfortunately copied into
ovl_create_temp().
Note to backporters: This patch only applies after the last Fixes given
below (post v6.16). To fix the bug in v6.7 and later the
inode_lock() call in ovl_copy_up_workdir() needs to nest using
I_MUTEX_PARENT.

Pull fileattr updates from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces the new file_getattr() and file_setattr() system calls
after lengthy discussions.
Both system calls serve as successors and extensible companions to
the FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR system calls which have
started to show their age in addition to being named in a way that
makes it easy to conflate them with extended attribute related
operations.
These syscalls allow userspace to set filesystem inode attributes on
special files. One of the usage examples is the XFS quota projects.
XFS has project quotas which could be attached to a directory. All new
inodes in these directories inherit project ID set on parent
directory.
The project is created from userspace by opening and calling
FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR on each inode. This is not possible for special
files such as FIFO, SOCK, BLK etc. Therefore, some inodes are left
with empty project ID. Those inodes then are not shown in the quota
accounting but still exist in the directory. This is not critical but
in the case when special files are created in the directory with
already existing project quota, these new inodes inherit extended
attributes. This creates a mix of special files with and without
attributes. Moreover, special files with attributes don't have a
possibility to become clear or change the attributes. This, in turn,
prevents userspace from re-creating quota project on these existing
files.
In addition, these new system calls allow the implementation of
additional attributes that we couldn't or didn't want to fit into the
legacy ioctls anymore"

Pull dentry d_flags updates from Al Viro:
"The current exclusion rules for dentry->d_flags stores are rather
unpleasant. The basic rules are simple:
- stores to dentry->d_flags are OK under dentry->d_lock
- stores to dentry->d_flags are OK in the dentry constructor, before
becomes potentially visible to other threads
Unfortunately, there's a couple of exceptions to that, and that's
where the headache comes from.
The main PITA comes from d_set_d_op(); that primitive sets ->d_op of
dentry and adjusts the flags that correspond to presence of individual
methods. It's very easy to misuse; existing uses _are_ safe, but proof
of correctness is brittle.
Use in __d_alloc() is safe (we are within a constructor), but we might
as well precalculate the initial value of 'd_flags' when we set the
default ->d_op for given superblock and set 'd_flags' directly instead
of messing with that helper.
The reasons why other uses are safe are bloody convoluted; I'm not
going to reproduce it here. See [1] for gory details, if you care. The
critical part is using d_set_d_op() only just prior to
d_splice_alias(), which makes a combination of d_splice_alias() with
setting ->d_op, etc a natural replacement primitive.
Better yet, if we go that way, it's easy to take setting ->d_op and
modifying 'd_flags' under ->d_lock, which eliminates the headache as
far as 'd_flags' exclusion rules are concerned. Other exceptions are
minor and easy to deal with.
What this series does:
- d_set_d_op() is no longer available; instead a new primitive
(d_splice_alias_ops()) is provided, equivalent to combination of
d_set_d_op() and d_splice_alias().
- new field of struct super_block - 's_d_flags'. This sets the
default value of 'd_flags' to be used when allocating dentries on
this filesystem.
- new primitive for setting 's_d_op': set_default_d_op(). This
replaces stores to 's_d_op' at mount time.
All in-tree filesystems converted; out-of-tree ones will get caught
by the compiler ('s_d_op' is renamed, so stores to it will be
caught). 's_d_flags' is set by the same primitive to match the
's_d_op'.
- a lot of filesystems had sb->s_d_op->d_delete equal to
always_delete_dentry; that is equivalent to setting
DCACHE_DONTCACHE in 'd_flags', so such filesystems can bloody well
set that bit in 's_d_flags' and drop 'd_delete()' from
dentry_operations.
In quite a few cases that results in empty dentry_operations, which
means that we can get rid of those.
- kill simple_dentry_operations - not needed anymore
- massage d_alloc_parallel() to get rid of the other exception wrt
'd_flags' stores - we can set DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP as soon as we
allocate the new dentry; no need to delay that until we commit to
using the sucker.
As the result, 'd_flags' stores are all either under ->d_lock or done
before the dentry becomes visible in any shared data structures"

In case of ovl_lookup_temp() failure, we currently print `err`
which is actually not initialized at all.
Instead, properly print PTR_ERR(whiteout) which is where the
actual error really is.

ovl_whiteout() relies on the workdir i_rwsem to provide exclusive access
to ofs->whiteout which it manipulates. Rather than depending on this,
add a new mutex, "whiteout_lock" to explicitly provide the required
locking. Use guard(mutex) for this so that we can return without
needing to explicitly unlock.
Then take the lock on workdir only when needed - to lookup the temp name
and to do the whiteout or link.

Rather than locking the directory(s) before calling
ovl_cleanup_and_whiteout(), change it (and ovl_whiteout()) to do the
locking, so the locking can be fine grained as will be needed for
proposed locking changes.
Sometimes this is called to whiteout something in the index dir, in
which case only that dir must be locked. In one case it is called on
something in an upperdir, so two directories must be locked. We use
ovl_lock_rename_workdir() for this and remove the restriction that
upperdir cannot be indexdir - because now sometimes it is.

creates a whiteout object
renames the whiteout over the result of the lookup
The create and the rename must be locked separately for proposed

ovl currently locks a directory or two and then performs multiple actions
in one or both directories. This is incompatible with proposed changes
which will lock just the dentry of objects being acted on.
This patch moves calls to ovl_create_temp() out of the locked regions and
has it take and release the relevant lock itself.
The lock that was taken before this function was called is now taken
after. This means that any code between where the lock was taken and
ovl_create_temp() is now unlocked. This necessitates the use of
ovl_cleanup_unlocked() and the creation of ovl_lookup_upper_unlocked().
These will be used more widely in future patches.
Now that the file is created before the lock is taken for rename, we
need to ensure the parent wasn't changed before the lock was gained.
ovl_lock_rename_workdir() is changed to optionally receive the dentries
that will be involved in the rename. If either is present but has the
wrong parent, an error is returned.
