a_ops->readpages() is only ever used for read-ahead, yet we don't flag
the IO being submitted as such. Fix that up. Any file system that uses
mpage_readpages() as its ->readpages() implementation will now get this
right.
Since we're passing in whether the IO is read-ahead or not, we don't
need to pass in the 'gfp' separately, as it is dependent on the IO being
read-ahead. Kill off that member.
Add some documentation notes on ->readpages() being purely for
read-ahead.

We don't want open-by-handle picking half-set-up in-core
struct inode from e.g. mkdir() having failed halfway through.
In other words, we don't want such inodes returned by iget_locked()
on their way to extinction. However, we can't just have them
unhashed - otherwise open-by-handle immediately *after* that would've
ended up creating a new in-core inode over the on-disk one that
is in process of being freed right under us.
Solution: new flag (I_CREATING) set by insert_inode_locked() and
removed by unlock_new_inode() and a new primitive (discard_new_inode())
to be used by such halfway-through-setup failure exits instead of
unlock_new_inode() / iput() combinations. That primitive unlocks new
inode, but leaves I_CREATING in place.
iget_locked() treats finding an I_CREATING inode as failure
(-ESTALE, once we sort out the error propagation).
insert_inode_locked() treats the same as instant -EBUSY.
ilookup() treats those as icache miss.

NFS is a bit of a wart here - it doesn't have file at the point

there (for now). IMA is another one (here and everywhere)...
Note that this needs do_dentry_open() to leave old bits in ->f_mode

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.
Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections.
But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
There were no conflicts between this and the contents of linux-next
until just before the merge window, when we saw multiple problems:
- A minor conflict with my own y2038 fixes, which I could address
by adding another patch on top here.
- One semantic conflict with late changes to the NFS tree. I addressed
this by merging Deepa's original branch on top of the changes that
now got merged into mainline and making sure the merge commit includes
the necessary changes as produced by coccinelle.
- A trivial conflict against the removal of staging/lustre.
- Multiple conflicts against the VFS changes in the overlayfs tree.
These are still part of linux-next, but apparently this is no longer
intended for 4.18 [1], so I am ignoring that part.
As Deepa writes:
The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions.
Thomas Gleixner adds:
I think there is no point to drag that out for the next merge window.
The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core changes which
means that you're going to play that catchup game forever. Let's get
over with it towards the end of the merge window.

This is the per-I/O equivalent of the ioprio_set system call.
When IOCB_FLAG_IOPRIO is set on the iocb aio_flags field, then we set the
newly added kiocb ki_ioprio field to the value in the iocb aio_reqprio field.
This patch depends on block: add ioprio_check_cap function.

->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.

As vfs moves to using struct timespec64 to represent times,
update the argument to timespec_truncate() to use

I observed the following deadlock between them:
[task 1] [task 2] [task 3]
kill_fasync() mm_update_next_owner() copy_process()
spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock) read_lock(&tasklist_lock) write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock)
send_sigio() <IRQ> ...
read_lock(&fown->lock) kill_fasync() ...
read_lock(&tasklist_lock) spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock) ...
Task 1 can't acquire read locked tasklist_lock, since there is
already task 3 expressed its wish to take the lock exclusive.
Task 2 holds the read locked lock, but it can't take the spin lock.
Also, there is possible another deadlock (which I haven't observed):
[task 1] [task 2]
f_getown() kill_fasync()
read_lock(&f_own->lock) spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock,)
<IRQ> send_sigio() write_lock_irq(&f_own->lock)
kill_fasync() read_lock(&fown->lock)
spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock,)
Actually, we do not need exclusive fa->fa_lock in kill_fasync_rcu(),
as it guarantees fa->fa_file->f_owner integrity only. It may seem,
that it used to give a task a small possibility to receive two sequential
signals, if there are two parallel kill_fasync() callers, and task
handles the first signal fastly, but the behaviour won't become
different, since there is exclusive sighand lock in do_send_sig_info().
The patch converts fa_lock into rwlock_t, and this fixes two above
deadlocks, as rwlock is allowed to be taken from interrupt handler
by qrwlock design.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were
several late changes that have only now just settled.
Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f1 ("fs, dax: use
page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases.
The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late
arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment.
The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight.
A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for
4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure
that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have
fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge
with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot
over 156 configs.
An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge
window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and
passing all unit tests.
The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event()
functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback
showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large
degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change
and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks
and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will
need to wait for 4.18.
Summary:
- A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection
of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with
in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a
work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and
starvation regressions.
- The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86
and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on
PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree.
- Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to

Remove the const marking from the actor function pointer in the dir_context
struct. The const prevents the structure from being used as part of a
kmalloc'd object as it makes the compiler require that the actor member be
set at object initialisation time (or not at all), incuring something like
the following error if you try and set it later:
fs/afs/dir.c:556:20: error: assignment of read-only member 'actor'
Marking the member const like this adds very little in the way of sanity
checking as the type checking system is likely to provide sufficient - and
if not, the kernel is very likely to oops repeatably in this case.

There are 2 distinct freezing mechanisms - one operates on block
devices and another one directly on super blocks. Both end up with the
same result, but thaw of only one of these does not thaw the other.
In particular fsfreeze --freeze uses the ioctl variant going to the
super block. Since prior to this patch emergency thaw was not doing
a relevant thaw, filesystems frozen with this method remained
unaffected.
The patch is a hack which adds blind unfreezing.
In order to keep the super block write-locked the whole time the code
is shuffled around and the newly introduced __iterate_supers is
employed.
