[GIT PULL] vfs fanotify fsid updates

[GIT PULL] vfs fanotify fsid updates

[Christian Brauner]

Hey Linus,

/* Summary */
This work is part of the plan to enable fanotify to serve as a drop-in
replacement for inotify. While inotify is availabe on all filesystems,
fanotify currently isn't.

In order to support fanotify on all filesystems two things are needed:

(1) all filesystems need to support AT_HANDLE_FID
(2) all filesystems need to report a non-zero f_fsid

This pull request contains (1) and allows filesystems to encode
non-decodable file handlers for fanotify without implementing any
exportfs operations by encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from
i_ino and i_generation.

Filesystems that want to opt out of encoding non-decodable file ids for
fanotify that don't support NFS export can do so by providing an empty
export_operations struct.

The pull request also partially addresses (2) by generating f_fsid for
simple filesystems as well as freevxfs. Remaining filesystems will be
dealt with by separate patches.

Finally, this contains the patch from the current exportfs maintainers
which moves exportfs under vfs with Chuck, Jeff, and Amir as maintainers
and vfs.git as tree.

/* Testing */
clang: Debian clang version 16.0.6 (16)
gcc: gcc (Debian 13.2.0-5) 13.2.0

All patches are based on v6.6-rc7 and have been sitting in linux-next.
A single build failure was reported but has since been fixed.

/* Conflicts */
This will have a merge conflict with the vfs-6.7.iomap pull request I
sent out earlier:

  [GIT PULL] vfs iomap updates
  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231107-vfs-iomap-60b485c2b4fb@brauner

It should be fairly obvious how to resolve.

It will also have a merge conflict with current mainline that I suggest
to resolve as:

 +Lock ordering has been changed so that s_umount ranks above open_mutex again.
 +All places where s_umount was taken under open_mutex have been fixed up.

+ export_operations ->encode_fh() no longer has a default implementation to

+ Filesystems that used the default implementation may use the generic helper
+ generic_encode_ino32_fh() explicitly.
