In tests with multiple concurrent waiters on edge-triggered epoll
instances where an emitter writes to multiple sockets (epoll16, epoll56,
epoll58):
When the emitter performs its first write(), ep_poll_callback() fires and
wakes up both waiters because one waiter uses epoll_wait() and the other
one uses poll(). This translates to different wait queues, ep->wq for
epoll and ep->poll_wait for poll/select, which are both awoken by the
kernel because of that single write. Next, both waiter threads invoke
epoll_wait(), but since there is only one event, only one epoll_wait()
will return non-zero because of the edge-triggered mode being used (in
level-triggered mode, the kernel would re-queue the event because of
remaining unread data).
Since the second waiter sees an empty ready list, it does not increment
ctx.count and the test fails spuriously with ctx.count == 1 instead of 2.

Introduce waiter_entry1ap_loop() to retry poll() if the initial
epoll_wait(..., 0) yielded no events. This ensures the thread waits for
the subsequent write rather than failing immediately. Apply this helper
in epoll16, epoll56, and for both waiter threads in epoll58.

The kernfs tests only reach kernfs through lookup and readdir. Two
paths are not covered: file handles, which find a node without a lookup
through its parent, and rename of a node that keeps its parent.
Add three tests:
- decode a file handle, live and after the node is gone;
- decode while the node is being removed;
- look up a name while an interface is renamed, which renames its
/sys/class/net entry with the parent unchanged.
Two small fixes while here. ns_tag_isolates_class_net now counts only
symlinks, because bonding adds a bonding_masters attribute that is not a
device. A failing mkdtemp() now skips instead of aborting.

BFS (not to be confused with BeFS, the BeOS filesystem) is the
filesystem UnixWare uses for its boot partition. It has extremely
limited functionality, only supporting contiguous files and no
subdirectories. Even though the bfs driver is very small and is
unlikely to cause future maintenance problems, given that the only type
of data stored on such a partition is likely to be kernels and
bootloader settings, there is very little reason anyone would want to
access it from Linux. Other old Unix filesystems (efs, freevxfs) have
been removed recently, and bfs is highly unlikely to have any users, so
remove it as well. Retain the UAPI header to be safe.
Also update the former maintainer's email address in CREDITS.

kernfs_test only checked two xattr calls. It did not touch the part of
kernfs that userspace hits most: the dentry cache.
The kernel adds and removes kernfs nodes on its own, with no VFS call
behind it, and removal cannot always unhash the dentries that are
already cached. So ->d_revalidate() is what keeps the cache honest,
let's add tests for it.
Add tests that make the kernel change kernfs directly, instead of going
through create and unlink:
- writing cgroup.subtree_control makes the kernel add and remove files
in every child cgroup. That checks two things: a cached negative
dentry is dropped once the file appears, and a cached positive one
is dropped once the file goes away.
- renaming a network interface renames the sysfs node under a dentry
that is already cached.
- sysfs mounted in a new network namespace must list that namespace's
interfaces and not the parent's, which covers the KERNFS_NS tagging
code.
- many lookups running against concurrent mkdir and rmdir. A lookup
may only succeed or fail with an errno that means "it is gone".
- open across removal, readdir returning each entry once, and a
telldir()/seekdir() round trip, which uses the name hash cookie in
kernfs_dir_pos().
Test the other direction too: walking dentries that are already cached
must not drop them. That is not just a slowdown. d_invalidate() calls
detach_mounts(), so a dentry dropped by mistake also unmounts whatever
is mounted under that directory.
Both filesystems are needed. cgroup2 has no ->rename and is not
namespace tagged. sysfs cannot be mounted with a set of children we
control. The config fragment stops a kernel built with kselftest-merge
from passing while it runs almost nothing.
To confirm the tests really catch a broken backstop, kernfs_dir_changed()
was stubbed to return false. 8 of the 11 tests then failed.

Add a selftest that talks the raw FUSE protocol over /dev/fuse (rather
than via libfuse, which negotiates INIT internally) so it can both choose
whether to advertise FUSE_HAS_SYNCFS and directly observe whether a
FUSE_SYNCFS opcode is forwarded by the kernel.
Three cases are covered:
T1: host-root mount, server sets FUSE_HAS_SYNCFS
-> FUSE_SYNCFS must reach the server.
T2: host-root mount, server does not opt in
-> FUSE_SYNCFS must not be sent (back-compat).
T3: server opts in but opened /dev/fuse without CAP_SYS_ADMIN while still
in the initial user namespace
-> FUSE_SYNCFS must be withheld. This is the case that distinguishes
gating on the server's privilege from gating on the mount's user
namespace.

kernfs_test assumes that flistxattr() on /sys/kernel/warn_count always
returns an empty list. However, systems with SELinux enabled may expose
security.selinux xattr via listxattr() during policy load, which makes
the test fail even though kernfs is behaving correctly.
Skip the xattr content check if any xattrs are present, while still
verifying that flistxattr() succeeds (returns >= 0) on a kernfs file.
The existing user.foo getxattr check remains unchanged.
This avoids false failures on SELinux-enabled systems while preserving
the original purpose of the test.

The file_stressor test requires a 30-minute timeout (1800 seconds) due to
its 15-minute runtime plus setup/teardown overhead. This is significantly
longer than the default 45-second timeout used by other filesystem tests.
Move file_stressor into its own subdirectory (filesystems/file_stressor/)
with a dedicated settings file to isolate its timeout configuration. This
prevents the long timeout from affecting other fast-running tests in the
filesystems/ directory.
This restructuring follows the pattern used by other selftests with special
requirements and ensures proper timeout handling in CI/CD environments
while maintaining the default 45-second timeout for other filesystem tests.

Add a regression test for the bug where extending a file left the tail of
the old partial EOF page exposing stale mmap-dirtied data instead of zeros.
The test is a self-contained raw /dev/fuse server (no libfuse dependency)
that runs without writeback_cache and returns FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE, the
configuration in which the bug is visible. Its backing data is always zero
in the hole, so any non-zero byte a read sees is stale page-cache data.
All offsets are relative to the runtime page size. Four cases:
- write_extend: pollute the post-EOF tail, extend past it by writing into
a later page, and verify the tail reads back as zero;
- ftruncate_extend: same, but extend via ftruncate();
- fallocate_extend: same, but extend via fallocate() at the old EOF;
- extend_into_eof_page_preserves_data: an extending write landing inside
the old EOF page must not be clobbered by the zeroing.
Each case fails without the fix and passes with it.

Pull vfs superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
- Make it possible to share a block device between multiple
filesystems.
erofs can mount read-only blob devices shared between many
superblocks, but because we only tracked a single superblock a
freeze, thaw, removal or sync on such a device was never propagated
to all the superblocks using it, and there was no way to find them.
Add an efficient table to lookup all superblocks using a given block
device.
- A bunch of pre-existing fixes fell out of this work:
A block-device freeze racing a btrfs device change could leave the
whole filesystem stuck frozen. A bdev_freeze() issued by "dmsetup
suspend" or an LVM snapshot resolves that holder to freeze the
filesystem. and bdev_thaw() resolves it again to thaw. A freeze
landing while btrfs is adding, removing or replacing a device freezes
the filesystem. The membership change then drops that link. So the
matching thaw could no longer find the superblock.
Forbid freezing a device for the duration of a membership change,
modelled on deny_write_access()/allow_write_access().

Pull overlayfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This lets the merged overlayfs mount itself be idmapped through
mount_setattr(MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP), in addition to the already supported
idmapped lower and upper layers. The same overlay tree can then be
exposed under a different ownership view.
Overlayfs already normalizes every underlying id through the relevant
layer idmap when ovl_copyattr() copies attributes into the overlay
inode. So the overlay inode's i_uid and i_gid are overlay-final ids.
The overlay mount idmap composes on top of that and is applied at the
overlay-inode boundary only while the underlying layers keep being
accessed with the mounter's credentials through their own (possibly
idmapped) mounts.
So this only changes how the caller sees the overlay inode and never
widens the mounter's access to the layers. The second,
mounter-credential check in ovl_permission() against the real inode
stays on the layer idmap.
Most paths need no change because the VFS applies the mount idmap to
the overlay inode before overlayfs runs or after it returns at the
syscall boundary. Overlayfs only has to change where it bypasses the
generic path.
This also included is a fix for a double end_creating() on the
overlayfs casefold-mismatch path"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Bigger cleanups:
- The lockref dead-count handling is tidied up.
The open-coded check for a count below zero as the dead marker
relies on information the caller should not have.
- make put_mnt_ns() leave mounts connected. Destroying a mount
namespace disconnected its mounts from their mount points. So a
file descriptor still open on the parent of a mount point could be
used to peek under it.
Locked mounts were already kept connected to prevent exactly that.
But a mount is only locked when its tree is copied across a user
namespace boundary. So a mount namespace set up by a privileged
component had no locked mounts and its mounts were disconnected.
Passing UMOUNT_CONNECTED keeps every mount connected and prevents
that bug.
- vfs_prepare_mode() passes S_IFDIR for directories. I meant to fix
that ago but didn't get to it. So now someone finally did it.
This kills the exception where the mode could be 0 when a directory
was created whereas every other creation operation passed it
explicitly already.
- move long delayed work for ufs, jffs2, hfsplus, hfs and affs from
the per-cpu system_long_wq to the new unbound system_dfl_long_wq.
None of that work relies on per-cpu state and the work item is
enqueued with queue_delayed_work() whose timer is global anyway. So
it may as well benefit from scheduler task placement.
Smaller fixes and cleanups:
- unlock_buffer() and journal_end_buffer_io_sync() use
clear_and_wake_up_bit()
- the pipe page pools are unified into a single per-pipe pool and the

- eventpoll now computes its timer slack lazily in ep_poll()
- shrink_dcache_for_umount() keeps making progress on busy roots

Pull failfs filesystem from Christian Brauner:
"Add failfs and expose a FD_FAILFS_ROOT sentinel.
This allows userspace to shed their filesystem state completely. A

Failfs is the counterpart to nullfs. nullfs says adds a permanently

fails every operation. The root cannot be opened at all. A single
instance is mounted during early boot via kern_mount(), which makes it
logically distinct from every mount namespace.

Add a test that reproduces the stale ACL bug fixed by:
"fs: preserve ACL_DONT_CACHE state in forget_cached_acl()"
A FUSE mount that does not negotiate FUSE_POSIX_ACL initialises inodes
with i_acl = ACL_DONT_CACHE. Before the fix, calling
forget_all_cached_acls() (e.g. from fuse_update_get_attr() on a
statx(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC)) would silently replace ACL_DONT_CACHE with
ACL_NOT_CACHED, enabling the kernel ACL cache. A subsequent getxattr
would populate the cache, and because fuse_set_acl() skips
forget_all_cached_acls() for !fc->posix_acl, later ACL changes were
not visible to callers — getxattr returned stale data.
The test mounts a minimal libfuse3 lowlevel filesystem (no
FUSE_POSIX_ACL negotiated) and:
1. Issues two getxattrs — both must reach the daemon, proving
ACL_DONT_CACHE suppresses caching before any trigger.
2. Calls statx(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC) to trigger forget_all_cached_acls().
3. Issues another getxattr (populates the cache on a buggy kernel).
4. Switches the daemon to a different-sized ACL (ACL_B).
5. Issues a final getxattr — expects ACL_B (44 bytes) and daemon
call count 4; a buggy kernel returns stale ACL_A (28 bytes).
fuse_acl_cache_test is only built when libfuse3 is detected via
pkg-config.

Add a regression test for the fsuidgid_has_mapping() check in
vfs_tmpfile(). It idmaps a detached tmpfs mount so that the
caller-visible id range [0, 10000) maps onto the on-disk range
[10000, 20000) and checks that:
- a caller whose fsuid/fsgid fall outside that range cannot create an
O_TMPFILE through the mount and gets -EOVERFLOW instead of an inode
owned by (uid_t)-1;
- a mapped caller can create an O_TMPFILE, link it into the namespace,
and the ownership round-trips through the mount idmap: it is reported
as 0 through the mount and stored as 10000 on the underlying tmpfs.
The test runs entirely as root and uses setfsuid()/setfsgid() to become
the unmapped caller, so it needs no helper user. The layer directory is
world-writable so that an unmapped caller still clears the directory
permission check and reaches the fsuidgid_has_mapping() test.

Add a selftest for idmapping the merged overlay mount itself. It
applies an idmapping to a freshly created (still detached) overlay
mount with mount_setattr(MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP) and checks that:
- getattr reports ownership mapped through the mount idmap;
- a file created through the idmapped mount is stored on the upper
layer with the corresponding overlay-final id;
- chown through the idmapped mount round-trips;
- an nfs_export overlay can be idmapped and decodable file handles
round-trip through it with correctly mapped ownership.
The layers live on a private tmpfs and are owned by the host id so that
they map to id 0 through the test idmapping, allowing the root caller
to operate on them.

user_get_super() is now backed by the global device-to-superblock table
instead of a walk of the super_blocks list. ustat(2) is its most direct
user-visible consumer but nothing in the tree exercises it.
Add a small regression test: the device number of a mounted tmpfs (an
anonymous device, registered in the table by sget_fc()) must resolve,
it must stop resolving after the unmount (the entry is dropped again in
kill_super_notify()), and bogus device numbers keep reporting EINVAL.
The test passes on kernels before the conversion: it pins down the
semantics the table-backed lookup must preserve.

Pull eventpoll updates from Christian Brauner:
- eventpoll clarity refactor
The recent eventpoll UAF fixes (a6dc643c6931 and follow-ups) depended
on invariants in fs/eventpoll.c that were nowhere documented and had
to be reverse-engineered from the code: the lifetime relationships
between struct eventpoll, struct epitem, and struct file, the three
removal paths coordinating via epi_fget() pins and ep->mtx, the
ovflist sentinel-encoded scan state machine, the POLLFREE
release/acquire handshake, and the loop / path check globals
serialized by epnested_mutex. The fixes were correct but the next
person to touch this code would hit the same learning curve.
This series codifies those invariants in source and tightens the
surrounding structure. No functional changes intended:
- Documentation: a top-of-file overview with field-protection
tables for struct eventpoll and struct epitem, a section
gathering the loop-check / path-check globals next to their
declarations, labelled comments on the two sides of the POLLFREE
handshake, refreshed comments on epi_fget() and ep_remove_file(),
and a docblock on ep_clear_and_put() that names its two-pass
structure as load-bearing.
- Mechanical renames: ep_refcount_dec_and_test() -> ep_put() to
pair with ep_get(), attach_epitem() -> ep_attach_file() for
ep_remove_file() symmetry, the unused depth argument dropped from
epoll_mutex_lock(), and the CONFIG_KCMP block relocated next to
CONFIG_COMPAT so the hot-path code is contiguous.
- Helper extraction: ep_insert() splits into ep_alloc_epitem() and
ep_register_epitem(), ep_clear_and_put()'s two passes become
ep_drain_pollwaits() and ep_drain_tree() so the ordering
invariant is enforced by the call sequence rather than
convention, the per-event delivery loop body becomes
ep_deliver_event(), and the ep->mtx + epnested_mutex acquisition
dance lifts out of do_epoll_ctl() into ep_ctl_lock() /
ep_ctl_unlock().
- Sentinel and predicate cleanup: the EP_UNACTIVE_PTR overload is
hidden behind named helpers (ep_is_scanning, epi_on_ovflist,
...), epi->next is renamed to epi->ovflist_next, and the boolean
predicates return bool.
- The per-CTL_ADD scratch state (tfile_check_list, path_count[],
inserting_into) moves from file-scope globals into a
stack-allocated struct ep_ctl_ctx plumbed through the loop / path
check chain.
Two follow-up fixes are included: missing kernel-doc for the new @ctx
parameters, and restoring the EP_UNACTIVE_PTR sentinel for
ctx->tfile_check_list - replacing it with NULL termination broke
ep_remove_file()'s "never listed" check for the list tail, causing a
syzbot-reported use-after-free.
- io_uring related epoll cleanups
One of the nastier things about epoll is how it allows nesting
contexts inside each other, leading to the necessity of loop
detection and the issues that have come with that. There is no reason
to support nesting on the io_uring side, so contain the damage and
disallow nested contexts from there: eventpoll gains a file based
control interface and struct epoll_filefd is renamed to epoll_key.
The io_uring side proper goes on top of this through the block tree.
- Fix epoll_wait() reporting false negatives
ep_events_available() checks ep->rdllist and ep_is_scanning() without
a lock and can race with a concurrent scan such that neither check
sees the events, causing epoll_wait() with a zero timeout to wrongly
report no events even though events are available. A sequence lock
closes the race and a reproducer is added to the eventpoll selftests.

These tests were written in the early days of selftests' TAP support,
the more modern kselftest harness is much easier to follow and maintain.
The actual contents of the tests are unchanged by this change. Most of
the diff involves switching from the E_* syscall wrappers we previously
used to ASSERT_EQ(fn(...), 0) in tests and helper functions.
The first pass of the migration was done using Claude, followed by a
manual rework and review.

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Add FSMOUNT_NAMESPACE flag to fsmount() that creates a new mount
namespace with the newly created filesystem attached to a copy of the
real rootfs. This returns a namespace file descriptor instead of an
O_PATH mount fd, similar to how OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE works for
open_tree().
This allows creating a new filesystem and immediately placing it in a
new mount namespace in a single operation, which is useful for
container runtimes and other namespace-based isolation mechanisms.
This accompanies OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE and avoids a needless detour via
OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE to get the same effect. Will be especially useful
when you mount an actual filesystem to be used as the container
rootfs.
- Currently, creating a new mount namespace always copies the entire
mount tree from the caller's namespace. For containers and sandboxes
that intend to build their mount table from scratch this is wasteful:
they inherit a potentially large mount tree only to immediately tear
it down.
This series adds support for creating a mount namespace that contains
only a clone of the root mount, with none of the child mounts. Two
new flags are introduced:
- CLONE_EMPTY_MNTNS (0x400000000) for clone3(), using the 64-bit flag space
- UNSHARE_EMPTY_MNTNS (0x00100000) for unshare()
Both flags imply CLONE_NEWNS. The resulting namespace contains a
single nullfs root mount with an immutable empty directory. The
intended workflow is to then mount a real filesystem (e.g., tmpfs)
over the root and build the mount table from there.
- Allow MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH to target the caller's rootfs, allowing to
switch out the rootfs without pivot_root(2).
The traditional approach to switching the rootfs involves
pivot_root(2) or a chroot_fs_refs()-based mechanism that atomically
updates fs->root for all tasks sharing the same fs_struct. This has
consequences for fork(), unshare(CLONE_FS), and setns().
This series instead decomposes root-switching into individually
atomic, locally-scoped steps:
fd_tree = open_tree(-EBADF, "/newroot", OPEN_TREE_CLONE | OPEN_TREE_CLOEXEC);
fchdir(fd_tree);
move_mount(fd_tree, "", AT_FDCWD, "/", MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH | MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
chroot(".");
umount2(".", MNT_DETACH);
Since each step only modifies the caller's own state, the
fork/unshare/setns races are eliminated by design.
A key step to making this possible is to remove the locked mount
restriction. Originally MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH doesn't support mounting
beneath a mount that is locked. The locked mount protects the
underlying mount from being revealed. This is a core mechanism of
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS). The mounts in the new mount
namespace become locked. That effectively makes the new mount table
useless as the caller cannot ever get rid of any of the mounts no
matter how useless they are.
We can lift this restriction though. We simply transfer the locked
property from the top mount to the mount beneath. This works because
what we care about is to protect the underlying mount aka the parent.
The mount mounted between the parent and the top mount takes over the
job of protecting the parent mount from the top mount mount. This
leaves us free to remove the locked property from the top mount which
can consequently be unmounted:
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS)
and we inherit a clone of procfs on /proc then currently we cannot
unmount it as:
umount -l /proc
will fail with EINVAL because the procfs mount is locked.
After this series we can now do:
mount --beneath -t tmpfs tmpfs /proc
umount -l /proc
after which a tmpfs mount has been placed beneath the procfs mount.
The tmpfs mount has become locked and the procfs mount has become
unlocked.
This means you can safely modify an inherited mount table after
unprivileged namespace creation.
Afterwards we simply make it possible to move a mount beneath the
rootfs allowing to upgrade the rootfs.
Removing the locked restriction makes this very useful for containers
created with unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS) to reshuffle an
inherited mount table safely and MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH makes it possible
to switch out the rootfs instead of using the costly pivot_root(2).

Pull vfs xattr updates from Christian Brauner:
"This reworks the simple_xattr infrastructure and adds support for
user.* extended attributes on sockets.
The simple_xattr subsystem currently uses an rbtree protected by a
reader-writer spinlock. This series replaces the rbtree with an
rhashtable giving O(1) average-case lookup with RCU-based lockless
reads. This sped up concurrent access patterns on tmpfs quite a bit
and it's an overall easy enough conversion to do and gets rid or
rwlock_t.
The conversion is done incrementally: a new rhashtable path is added
alongside the existing rbtree, consumers are migrated one at a time
(shmem, kernfs, pidfs), and then the rbtree code is removed. All three
consumers switch from embedded structs to pointer-based lazy
allocation so the rhashtable overhead is only paid for inodes that
actually use xattrs.
With this infrastructure in place the series adds support for user.*
xattrs on sockets. Path-based AF_UNIX sockets inherit xattr support
from the underlying filesystem (e.g. tmpfs) but sockets in sockfs -
that is everything created via socket() including abstract namespace
AF_UNIX sockets - had no xattr support at all.
The xattr_permission() checks are reworked to allow user.* xattrs on
S_IFSOCK inodes. Sockfs sockets get per-inode limits of 128 xattrs and
128KB total value size matching the limits already in use for kernfs.
The practical motivation comes from several directions. systemd and
GNOME are expanding their use of Varlink as an IPC mechanism.
For D-Bus there are tools like dbus-monitor that can observe IPC
traffic across the system but this only works because D-Bus has a
central broker.
For Varlink there is no broker and there is currently no way to
identify which sockets speak Varlink. With user.* xattrs on sockets a
service can label its socket with the IPC protocol it speaks (e.g.,
user.varlink=1) and an eBPF program can then selectively capture
traffic on those sockets. Enumerating bound sockets via netlink
combined with these xattr labels gives a way to discover all Varlink
IPC entrypoints for debugging and introspection.
Similarly, systemd-journald wants to use xattrs on the /dev/log socket
for protocol negotiation to indicate whether RFC 5424 structured
syslog is supported or whether only the legacy RFC 3164 format should
be used.
In containers these labels are particularly useful as high-privilege
or more complicated solutions for socket identification aren't
available.
The series comes with comprehensive selftests covering path-based
AF_UNIX sockets, sockfs socket operations, per-inode limit
enforcement, and xattr operations across multiple address families
(AF_INET, AF_INET6, AF_NETLINK, AF_PACKET)"

Add tests for mounting beneath the rootfs using MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH:
- beneath_rootfs_success: mount beneath /, fchdir, chroot, umount2
MNT_DETACH -- verify root changed
- beneath_rootfs_old_root_stacked: after mount-beneath, verify old root
parent is clone via statmount
- beneath_rootfs_in_chroot_fail: chroot into subdir of same mount,
mount-beneath fails (dentry != mnt_root)
- beneath_rootfs_in_chroot_success: chroot into separate tmpfs mount,
mount-beneath succeeds
- beneath_rootfs_locked_transfer: in user+mount ns: mount-beneath
rootfs succeeds, MNT_LOCKED transfers, old root unmountable
- beneath_rootfs_locked_containment: in user+mount ns: after full
root-switch workflow, new root is MNT_LOCKED (containment preserved)
- beneath_non_rootfs_locked_transfer: mounts created before
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS) become locked; mount-beneath
transfers MNT_LOCKED, displaced mount can be unmounted
- beneath_non_rootfs_locked_containment: same setup, verify new mount
is MNT_LOCKED (containment preserved)
