<content type='text'>
commit 604e6681e114d05a2e384c4d1e8ef81918037ef5 upstream.

Since the introduction of scrub interface, the only flag that we support
is BTRFS_SCRUB_READONLY.  Thus there is no sanity checks, if there are
some undefined flags passed in, we just ignore them.

This is problematic if we want to introduce new scrub flags, as we have
no way to determine if such flags are supported.

Address the problem by introducing a check for the flags, and if
unsupported flags are set, return -EOPNOTSUPP to inform the user space.

This check should be backported for all supported kernels before any new
scrub flags are introduced.

<title>btrfs: separate BLOCK_GROUP_TREE compat RO flag from EXTENT_TREE_V2</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1c56ab991903dce60e905a08f431c0e6f79b9b9e</id>
<content type='text'>
The problem of long mount time caused by block group item search is
already known for some time, and the solution of block group tree has
been proposed.

There is really no need to bound this feature into extent tree v2, just
introduce compat RO flag, BLOCK_GROUP_TREE, to correctly solve the
problem.

All the code handling block group root is already in the upstream
kernel, thus this patch really only needs to introduce the new compat RO
flag.

This patch introduces one extra artificial limitation on block group
tree feature, that free space cache v2 and no-holes feature must be
enabled to use this new compat RO feature.

This artificial requirement is mostly to reduce the test combinations,
and can be a guideline for future features, to mostly rely on the latest
default features.

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"

This adds the definitions of the new commands for send stream version 2
and their respective attributes: fallocate, FS_IOC_SETFLAGS (a.k.a.
chattr), and encoded writes. It also documents two changes to the send
stream format in v2: the receiver shouldn't assume a maximum command
size, and the DATA attribute is encoded differently to allow for writes
larger than 64k. These will be implemented in subsequent changes, and
then the ioctl will accept the new version and flag.

<id>urn:sha1:94dfc73e7cf4a31da66b8843f0b9283ddd6b8381</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].

This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
(linux-5.19-rc2$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . &gt; output.patch)

@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;
@@

struct S {
  ...
  T1 member;
  T2 array[
- 0
  ];
};

-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 is coming and we need to land these changes
to prevent issues like these in the short future:

../fs/minix/dir.c:337:3: warning: 'strcpy' will always overflow; destination buffer has size 0,
but the source string has length 2 (including NUL byte) [-Wfortify-source]
		strcpy(de3-&gt;name, ".");
		^

Since these are all [0] to [] changes, the risk to UAPI is nearly zero. If
this breaks anything, we can use a union with a new member name.

In order to allow sending and receiving compressed data without
decompressing it, we need an interface to write pre-compressed data
directly to the filesystem and the matching interface to read compressed
data without decompressing it. This adds the definitions for ioctls to
do that and detailed explanations of how to use them.

<content type='text'>
This is preparatory work for send protocol update to version 2 and
higher.

We have many pending protocol update requests but still don't have the
basic protocol rev in place, the first thing that must happen is to do
the actual versioning support.

The protocol version is u32 and is a new member in the send ioctl
struct. Validity of the version field is backed by a new flag bit. Old
kernels would fail when a higher version is requested. Version protocol
0 will pick the highest supported version, BTRFS_SEND_STREAM_VERSION,
  that's also exported in sysfs.

The version is still unchanged and will be increased once we have new
incompatible commands or stream updates.

<title>btrfs: initial fsverity support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:146054090b0859b28fc39015c7704ccc3c3a347f</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for fsverity in btrfs. To support the generic interface in
fs/verity, we add two new item types in the fs tree for inodes with
verity enabled. One stores the per-file verity descriptor and btrfs
verity item and the other stores the Merkle tree data itself.

Verity checking is done in end_page_read just before a page is marked
uptodate. This naturally handles a variety of edge cases like holes,
preallocated extents, and inline extents. Some care needs to be taken to
not try to verity pages past the end of the file, which are accessed by
the generic buffered file reading code under some circumstances like
reading to the end of the last page and trying to read again. Direct IO
on a verity file falls back to buffered reads.

Verity relies on PageChecked for the Merkle tree data itself to avoid
re-walking up shared paths in the tree. For this reason, we need to
cache the Merkle tree data. Since the file is immutable after verity is
turned on, we can cache it at an index past EOF.

Use the new inode ro_flags to store verity on the inode item, so that we
can enable verity on a file, then rollback to an older kernel and still
mount the file system and read the file. Since we can't safely write the
file anymore without ruining the invariants of the Merkle tree, we mark
a ro_compat flag on the file system when a file has verity enabled.
