Pull ceph updates from Ilya Dryomov:
"The highlights are:
- OSD/MDS latency and caps cache metrics infrastructure for the
filesytem (Xiubo Li). Currently available through debugfs and will
be periodically sent to the MDS in the future.
- support for replica reads (balanced and localized reads) for rbd
and the filesystem (myself). The default remains to always read
from primary, users can opt-in with the new crush_location and
read_from_replica options. Note that reading from replica is safe
for general use only since Octopus.
- support for RADOS allocation hint flags (myself). Currently used by
rbd to propagate the compressible/incompressible hint given with
the new compression_hint map option and ready for passing on more
advanced hints, e.g. based on fadvise() from the filesystem.
- support for efficient cross-quota-realm renames (Luis Henriques)
- assorted cap handling improvements and cleanups, particularly
untangling some of the locking (Jeff Layton)"

After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.
This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or
1, not the full range of integers.
We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the
previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put
the alias table in alphabetical order.

We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line and have
infrastructure to convert legacy command line options that duplicate
sysctl to become a sysctl alias.
This patch converts the hung_task_panic parameter. Note that the sysctl
handler is more strict and allows only 0 and 1, while the legacy
parameter allowed any non-zero value. But there is little reason anyone
would not be using 1.

We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line, but
historically some parameters introduced their own command line
equivalent, which we don't want to remove for compatibility reasons.
We can, however, convert them to the generic infrastructure with a table
translating the legacy command line parameters to their sysctl names,
and removing the one-off param handlers.
This patch adds the support and makes the first conversion to
demonstrate it, on the (deprecated) numa_zonelist_order parameter.

Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3.
This series adds support for something that seems like many people
always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set
sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of
sysctl.vm.something=1
The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an
attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as
a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility
reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the
one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the
sysctl variants.
I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more.
The conversion also has varying level of success:
- numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the
necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything
but warn on deprecated value these days.
- hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that
now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer
value
- nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic,
so there's no straighforward conversion possible
- traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required
to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems
pointless for a single flag
This patch (of 5):
A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in
addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a
general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line.
Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't
found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this.
Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be
solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows
there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter -
hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning.
A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs
and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g.
/etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical.
Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters
prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the
corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount.
This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles
all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle
modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value
are reported in the kernel log.
The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as
some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might
need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process
can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/
then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel.
Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this
mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values
from userspace is practical enough.

posix_acl_permission() does not care about MAY_NOT_BLOCK, and in fact
the permission logic internally must not check that bit (it's only for
upper layers to decide whether they can block to do IO to look up the
acl information or not).
But the way the code was written, it _looked_ like it cared, since the
function explicitly did not mask that bit off.
But it has exactly two callers: one for when that bit is set, which
first clears the bit before calling posix_acl_permission(), and the
other call site when that bit was clear.
So stop the silly games "saving" the MAY_NOT_BLOCK bit that must not be
used for the actual permission test, and that currently is pointlessly
cleared by the callers when the function itself should just not care.

Rasmus Villemoes points out that the 'in_group_p()' tests can be a
noticeable expense, and often completely unnecessary. A common
situation is that the 'group' bits are the same as the 'other' bits
wrt the permissions we want to test.
So rewrite 'acl_permission_check()' to not bother checking for group
ownership when the permission check doesn't care.
For example, if we're asking for read permissions, and both 'group' and
'other' allow reading, there's really no reason to check if we're part
of the group or not: either way, we'll allow it.
Rasmus says:
"On a bog-standard Ubuntu 20.04 install, a workload consisting of
compiling lots of userspace programs (i.e., calling lots of
short-lived programs that all need to get their shared libs mapped in,
and the compilers poking around looking for system headers - lots of
/usr/lib, /usr/bin, /usr/include/ accesses) puts in_group_p around
0.1% according to perf top.
System-installed files are almost always 0755 (directories and
binaries) or 0644, so in most cases, we can avoid the binary search
and the cost of pulling the cred->groups array and in_group_p() .text
into the cpu cache"

Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
"There's some core VFS changes which affect a couple of filesystems:
- Make the inode hash table RCU safe and providing some RCU-safe
accessor functions. The search can then be done without taking the
inode_hash_lock. Care must be taken because the object may be being
deleted and no wait is made.
- Allow iunique() to avoid taking the inode_hash_lock.
- Allow AFS's callback processing to avoid taking the inode_hash_lock
when using the inode table to find an inode to notify.
- Improve Ext4's time updating. Konstantin Khlebnikov said "For now,
I've plugged this issue with try-lock in ext4 lazy time update.
This solution is much better."
Then there's a set of changes to make a number of improvements to the
AFS driver:
- Improve callback (ie. third party change notification) processing
by:
(a) Relying more on the fact we're doing this under RCU and by
using fewer locks. This makes use of the RCU-based inode
searching outlined above.
(b) Moving to keeping volumes in a tree indexed by volume ID
rather than a flat list.
(c) Making the server and volume records logically part of the
cell. This means that a server record now points directly at
the cell and the tree of volumes is there. This removes an N:M
mapping table, simplifying things.
- Improve keeping NAT or firewall channels open for the server
callbacks to reach the client by actively polling the fileserver on
a timed basis, instead of only doing it when we have an operation
to process.
- Improving detection of delayed or lost callbacks by including the
parent directory in the list of file IDs to be queried when doing a
bulk status fetch from lookup. We can then check to see if our copy
of the directory has changed under us without us getting notified.
- Determine aliasing of cells (such as a cell that is pointed to be a
DNS alias). This allows us to avoid having ambiguity due to
apparently different cells using the same volume and file servers.
- Improve the fileserver rotation to do more probing when it detects
that all of the addresses to a server are listed as non-responsive.
It's possible that an address that previously stopped responding
has become responsive again.
Beyond that, lay some foundations for making some calls asynchronous:
- Turn the fileserver cursor struct into a general operation struct
and hang the parameters off of that rather than keeping them in
local variables and hang results off of that rather than the call
struct.
- Implement some general operation handling code and simplify the
callers of operations that affect a volume or a volume component
(such as a file). Most of the operation is now done by core code.
- Operations are supplied with a table of operations to issue
different variants of RPCs and to manage the completion, where all
the required data is held in the operation object, thereby allowing
these to be called from a workqueue.
- Put the standard "if (begin), while(select), call op, end" sequence
into a canned function that just emulates the current behaviour for
now.
There are also some fixes interspersed:
- Don't let the EACCES from ICMP6 mapping reach the user as such,
since it's confusing as to whether it's a filesystem error. Convert
it to EHOSTUNREACH.
- Don't use the epoch value acquired through probing a server. If we
have two servers with the same UUID but in different cells, it's
hard to draw conclusions from them having different epoch values.
- Don't interpret the argument to the CB.ProbeUuid RPC as a
fileserver UUID and look up a fileserver from it.
- Deal with servers in different cells having the same UUIDs. In the
event that a CB.InitCallBackState3 RPC is received, we have to
break the callback promises for every server record matching that
UUID.
- Don't let afs_statfs return values that go below 0.
- Don't use running fileserver probe state to make server selection
and address selection decisions on. Only make decisions on final
state as the running state is cleared at the start of probing"

Before this patch, transactions could be merged into the system
transaction by function gfs2_merge_trans(), but the transaction ail
lists were never merged. Because the ail flushing mechanism can run
separately, bd elements can be attached to the transaction's buffer
list during the transaction (trans_add_meta, etc) but quickly moved
to its ail lists. Later, in function gfs2_trans_end, the transaction
can be freed (by gfs2_trans_end) while it still has bd elements
queued to its ail lists, which can cause it to either lose track of
the bd elements altogether (memory leak) or worse, reference the bd
elements after the parent transaction has been freed.
Although I've not seen any serious consequences, the problem becomes
apparent with the previous patch's addition of:
gfs2_assert_warn(sdp, list_empty(&tr->tr_ail1_list));
to function gfs2_trans_free().
This patch adds logic into gfs2_merge_trans() to move the merged
transaction's ail lists to the sdp transaction. This prevents the
use-after-free. To do this properly, we need to hold the ail lock,
so we pass sdp into the function instead of the transaction itself.

This patch adds a new slab for gfs2 transactions. That allows us to
reduce kernel memory fragmentation, have better organization of data
for analysis of vmcore dumps. A new centralized function is added to
free the slab objects, and it exposes use-after-free by giving
warnings if a transaction is freed while it still has bd elements
attached to its buffers or ail lists. We make sure to initialize
those transaction ail lists so we can check their integrity when freeing.
At a later time, we should add a slab initialization function to
make it more efficient, but for this initial patch I wanted to
minimize the impact.

Since transactions may be freed shortly after they're created, before
a log_flush occurs, we need to initialize their ail1 and ail2 lists
earlier. Before this patch, the ail1 list was initialized in gfs2_log_flush().
This moves the initialization to the point when the transaction is first
created.

When trying to upgrade the iopen glock from a shared to an exclusive lock in
gfs2_evict_inode, abort the wait if there is contention on the corresponding
inode glock: in that case, the inode must still be in active use on another
node, and we're not guaranteed to get the iopen glock anytime soon.
To make this work even better, when we notice contention on the iopen glock and
we can't evict the corresponsing inode and release the iopen glock immediately,
poke the inode glock. The other node(s) trying to acquire the lock can then
abort instead of timing out.
Thanks to Heinz Mauelshagen for pointing out a locking bug in a previous
version of this patch.

In delete_work_func, if the iopen glock still has an inode attached,
limit the inode lookup to that specific generation number: in the likely
case that the inode was deleted on the node on which the inode's link
count dropped to zero, we can skip verifying the on-disk block type and
reading in the inode. The same applies if another node that had the
inode open managed to delete the inode before us.

When an inode's link count drops to zero and the inode is cached on
other nodes, the current behavior of gfs2 is to immediately give up and
to rely on the other node(s) to delete the inode if there is iopen glock
contention. This leads to resource group glock bouncing and the loss of
caching. With the previous patches in place, we can fix that by not
giving up immediately.
When the inode is still open on other nodes, those nodes won't be able
to evict the inode and give up the iopen glock. In that case, our lock
conversion request will time out. The unlink system call will block for
the duration of the iopen lock conversion request. We're also holding
the inode glock in EX mode for an extended duration, so other nodes
won't be able to make progress on the inode, either.
This is worse than what we had before, but we can prevent other nodes
from getting stuck by aborting our iopen locking request if there is
contention on the inode glock. This will the the subject of a future
patch.

When there's contention on the iopen glock, it means that the link count
of the corresponding inode has dropped to zero on a remote node which is
now trying to delete the inode. In that case, try to evict the inode so
that the iopen glock will be released, which will allow the remote node
to do its job.
When the inode is still open locally, the inode's reference count won't
drop to zero and so we'll keep holding the inode and its iopen glock.
The remote node will time out its request to grab the iopen glock, and
when the inode is finally closed locally, we'll try to delete it
ourself.

This requires flushing delayed work items in gfs2_make_fs_ro (which is called
before unmounting a filesystem).
When inodes are deleted and then recreated, pending gl_delete work items would
have no effect because the inode generations will have changed, so we can
cancel any pending gl_delete works before reusing iopen glocks.

When deleting an inode, keep track of the generation of the deleted inode in
the inode glock Lock Value Block (LVB). When trying to delete an inode
remotely, check the last-known inode generation against the deleted inode
generation to skip duplicate remote deletes. This avoids taking the resource
group glock in order to verify the block type.

Alexey updated proc so each mount of proc uses a new superblock. This
allows people to actually use mount options with proc with no fear of
messing up another mount of proc. Given the kernel's internal mounts
of proc for things like uml this was a real problem, and resulted in
Android's hidepid mount options being ignored and introducing security
issues.
The rest of the changes are small cleanups and fixes that came out of
my work to allow this change to proc. In essence it is swapping the
