Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong: "The most notable change in this first batch is that we no longer schedule pages beyond i_size for writeback, preferring instead to let truncate deal with those pages. Next week, there may be a second pull request to remove iomap_writepage from the other two filesystems (gfs2/zonefs) that use iomap for buffered IO. This follows in the same vein as the recent removal of writepage from XFS, since it hasn't been triggered in a few years; it does nothing during direct reclaim; and as far as the people who examined the patchset can tell, it's moving the codebase in the right direction. However, as it was a late addition to for-next, I'm holding off on that section for another week of testing to see if anyone can come up with a solid reason for holding off in the meantime. Summary: - Skip writeback for pages that are completely beyond EOF - Minor code cleanups" * tag 'iomap-5.20-merge-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: dax: set did_zero to true when zeroing successfully iomap: set did_zero to true when zeroing successfully iomap: skip pages past eof in iomap_do_writepage()

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba: "This brings some long awaited changes, the send protocol bump, otherwise lots of small improvements and fixes. The main core part is reworking bio handling, cleaning up the submission and endio and improving error handling. There are some changes outside of btrfs adding helpers or updating API, listed at the end of the changelog. Features: - sysfs: - export chunk size, in debug mode add tunable for setting its size - show zoned among features (was only in debug mode) - show commit stats (number, last/max/total duration) - send protocol updated to 2 - new commands: - ability write larger data chunks than 64K - send raw compressed extents (uses the encoded data ioctls), ie. no decompression on send side, no compression needed on receive side if supported - send 'otime' (inode creation time) among other timestamps - send file attributes (a.k.a file flags and xflags) - this is first version bump, backward compatibility on send and receive side is provided - there are still some known and wanted commands that will be implemented in the near future, another version bump will be needed, however we want to minimize that to avoid causing usability issues - print checksum type and implementation at mount time - don't print some messages at mount (mentioned as people asked about it), we want to print messages namely for new features so let's make some space for that - big metadata - this has been supported for a long time and is not a feature that's worth mentioning - skinny metadata - same reason, set by default by mkfs Performance improvements: - reduced amount of reserved metadata for delayed items - when inserted items can be batched into one leaf - when deleting batched directory index items - when deleting delayed items used for deletion - overall improved count of files/sec, decreased subvolume lock contention - metadata item access bounds checker micro-optimized, with a few percent of improved runtime for metadata-heavy operations - increase direct io limit for read to 256 sectors, improved throughput by 3x on sample workload Notable fixes: - raid56 - reduce parity writes, skip sectors of stripe when there are no data updates - restore reading from on-disk data instead of using stripe cache, this reduces chances to damage correct data due to RMW cycle - refuse to replay log with unknown incompat read-only feature bit set - zoned - fix page locking when COW fails in the middle of allocation - improved tracking of active zones, ZNS drives may limit the number and there are ENOSPC errors due to that limit and not actual lack of space - adjust maximum extent size for zone append so it does not cause late ENOSPC due to underreservation - mirror reading error messages show the mirror number - don't fallback to buffered IO for NOWAIT direct IO writes, we don't have the NOWAIT semantics for buffered io yet - send, fix sending link commands for existing file paths when there are deleted and created hardlinks for same files - repair all mirrors for profiles with more than 1 copy (raid1c34) - fix repair of compressed extents, unify where error detection and repair happen Core changes: - bio completion cleanups - don't double defer compression bios - simplify endio workqueues - add more data to btrfs_bio to avoid allocation for read requests - rework bio error handling so it's same what block layer does, the submission works and errors are consumed in endio - when asynchronous bio offload fails fall back to synchronous checksum calculation to avoid errors under writeback or memory pressure - new trace points - raid56 events - ordered extent operations - super block log_root_transid deprecated (never used) - mixed_backref and big_metadata sysfs feature files removed, they've been default for sufficiently long time, there are no known users and mixed_backref could be confused with mixed_groups Non-btrfs changes, API updates: - minor highmem API update to cover const arguments - switch all kmap/kmap_atomic to kmap_local - remove redundant flush_dcache_page() - address_space_operations::writepage callback removed - add bdev_max_segments() helper" * tag 'for-5.20-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux: (163 commits) btrfs: don't call btrfs_page_set_checked in finish_compressed_bio_read btrfs: fix repair of compressed extents btrfs: remove the start argument to check_data_csum and export btrfs: pass a btrfs_bio to btrfs_repair_one_sector btrfs: simplify the pending I/O counting in struct compressed_bio btrfs: repair all known bad mirrors btrfs: merge btrfs_dev_stat_print_on_error with its only caller btrfs: join running log transaction when logging new name btrfs: simplify error handling in btrfs_lookup_dentry btrfs: send: always use the rbtree based inode ref management infrastructure btrfs: send: fix sending link commands for existing file paths btrfs: send: introduce recorded_ref_alloc and recorded_ref_free btrfs: zoned: wait until zone is finished when allocation didn't progress btrfs: zoned: write out partially allocated region btrfs: zoned: activate necessary block group btrfs: zoned: activate metadata block group on flush_space btrfs: zoned: disable metadata overcommit for zoned btrfs: zoned: introduce space_info->active_total_bytes btrfs: zoned: finish least available block group on data bg allocation btrfs: let can_allocate_chunk return error ...

Pull efivars sysfs interface removal from Ard Biesheuvel: "Remove the obsolete 'efivars' sysfs based interface to the EFI variable store, now that all users have moved to the efivarfs pseudo file system, which was created ~10 years ago to address some fundamental shortcomings in the sysfs based driver. Move the 'business logic' related to which EFI variables are important and may affect the boot flow from the efivars support layer into the efivarfs pseudo file system, so it is no longer exposed to other parts of the kernel" * tag 'efi-efivars-removal-for-v5.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/efi/efi: efi: vars: Move efivar caching layer into efivarfs efi: vars: Switch to new wrapper layer efi: vars: Remove deprecated 'efivars' sysfs interface

Pull vfs iov_iter updates from Al Viro: "Part 1 - isolated cleanups and optimizations.

Pull vfs dcache updates from Al Viro: "The main part here is making parallel lookups safe for RT - making sure preemption is disabled in start_dir_add()/ end_dir_add() sections (on non-RT it's automatic, on RT it needs to to be done explicitly) and moving wakeups from __d_lookup_done() inside of such to the end of those sections. Wakeups can be safely delayed for as long as ->d_lock on in-lookup dentry is held; proving that has caught a bug in d_add_ci() that allows memory corruption when sufficiently bogus ntfs (or case-insensitive xfs) image is mounted. Easily fixed, fortunately" * tag 'pull-work.dcache' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: fs/dcache: Move wakeup out of i_seq_dir write held region. fs/dcache: Move the wakeup from __d_lookup_done() to the caller. fs/dcache: Disable preemption on i_dir_seq write side on PREEMPT_RT d_add_ci(): make sure we don't miss d_lookup_done()

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney: - Documentation updates - Miscellaneous fixes - Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to be offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters. This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS and Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel boot parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering with real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms - Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably making these APIs account for both normal and expedited grace periods - Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing the CPU overhead of RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than a factor of two on a system with 15,000 tasks. The reduction is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it seems reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks might see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead - Torture-test updates - Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into context tracking, thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to kernel mode from either idle or nohz_full userspace execution for kernels that track context independently of RCU.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld: "Though there's been a decent amount of RNG-related development during this last cycle, not all of it is coming through this tree, as this cycle saw a shift toward tackling early boot time seeding issues, which took place in other trees as well. Here's a summary of the various patches: - The CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM .config option and the "nordrand" boot option have been removed, as they overlapped with the more widely supported and more sensible options, CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU and "random.trust_cpu". This change allowed simplifying a bit of arch code. - x86's RDRAND boot time test has been made a bit more robust, with RDRAND disabled if it's clearly producing bogus results. This would be a tip.git commit, technically, but I took it through random.git to avoid a large merge conflict. - The RNG has long since mixed in a timestamp very early in boot, on the premise that a computer that does the same things, but does so starting at different points in wall time, could be made to still produce a different RNG state. Unfortunately, the clock isn't set early in boot on all systems, so now we mix in that timestamp when the time is actually set. - User Mode Linux now uses the host OS's getrandom() syscall to generate a bootloader RNG seed and later on treats getrandom() as the platform's RDRAND-like faculty. - The arch_get_random_{seed_,}_long() family of functions is now arch_get_random_{seed_,}_longs(), which enables certain platforms, such as s390, to exploit considerable performance advantages from requesting multiple CPU random numbers at once, while at the same time compiling down to the same code as before on platforms like x86. - A small cleanup changing a cmpxchg() into a try_cmpxchg(), from Uros. - A comment spelling fix" More info about other random number changes that come in through various architecture trees in the full commentary in the pull request: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220731232428.2219258-1-Jason@zx2c4.com/ * tag 'random-6.0-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: random: correct spelling of "overwrites" random: handle archrandom with multiple longs um: seed rng using host OS rng random: use try_cmpxchg in _credit_init_bits timekeeping: contribute wall clock to rng on time change x86/rdrand: Remove "nordrand" flag in favor of "random.trust_cpu" random: remove CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM

The commit a1a2b712 ("of/platform: Drop static setup of IRQ resource from DT core") stopped IRQ resources being available as platform resources. This broke the sanity check for the expected number of resources in the Marvell SATA driver which expected two resources, the IO memory and the interrupt. Change the sanity check to only expect the IO memory.

Pull io_uring buffered writes support from Jens Axboe: "This contains support for buffered writes, specifically for XFS. btrfs is in progress, will be coming in the next release. io_uring does support buffered writes on any file type, but since the buffered write path just always -EAGAIN (or -EOPNOTSUPP) any attempt to do so if IOCB_NOWAIT is set, any buffered write will effectively be handled by io-wq offload. This isn't very efficient, and we even have specific code in io-wq to serialize buffered writes to the same inode to avoid further inefficiencies with thread offload. This is particularly sad since most buffered writes don't block, they simply copy data to a page and dirty it. With this pull request, we can handle buffered writes a lot more effiently. If balance_dirty_pages() needs to block, we back off on writes as indicated. This improves buffered write support by 2-3x.
