fs_context: drop the unused lsm_flags member

2023-03-16T13:38:28Z

This isn't ever used by VFS now, and it couldn't even work. Any FS that uses the SECURITY_LSM_NATIVE_LABELS flag needs to also process the value returned back from the LSM, so it needs to do its security_sb_set_mnt_opts() call on its own anyway.

Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4

2022-12-13T03:56:37Z

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o: "A large number of cleanups and bug fixes, with many of the bug fixes found by Syzbot and fuzzing. (Many of the bug fixes involve less-used ext4 features such as fast_commit, inline_data and bigalloc) In addition, remove the writepage function for ext4, since the medium-term plan is to remove ->writepage() entirely. (The VM doesn't need or want writepage() for writeback, since it is fine with ->writepages() so long as ->migrate_folio() is implemented)" * tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (58 commits) ext4: fix reserved cluster accounting in __es_remove_extent() ext4: fix inode leak in ext4_xattr_inode_create() on an error path ext4: allocate extended attribute value in vmalloc area ext4: avoid unaccounted block allocation when expanding inode ext4: initialize quota before expanding inode in setproject ioctl ext4: stop providing .writepage hook mm: export buffer_migrate_folio_norefs() ext4: switch to using write_cache_pages() for data=journal writeout jbd2: switch jbd2_submit_inode_data() to use fs-provided hook for data writeout ext4: switch to using ext4_do_writepages() for ordered data writeout ext4: move percpu_rwsem protection into ext4_writepages() ext4: provide ext4_do_writepages() ext4: add support for writepages calls that cannot map blocks ext4: drop pointless IO submission from ext4_bio_write_page() ext4: remove nr_submitted from ext4_bio_write_page() ext4: move keep_towrite handling to ext4_bio_write_page() ext4: handle redirtying in ext4_bio_write_page() ext4: fix kernel BUG in 'ext4_write_inline_data_end()' ext4: make ext4_mb_initialize_context return void ext4: fix deadlock due to mbcache entry corruption ...

ext4: journal_path mount options should follow links

2022-12-01T15:46:54Z

Before the commit 461c3af045d3 ("ext4: Change handle_mount_opt() to use fs_parameter") ext4 mount option journal_path did follow links in the provided path. Bring this behavior back by allowing to pass pathwalk flags to fs_lookup_param().

fs: simplify vfs_get_super

2022-11-25T05:52:19Z

Remove the pointless keying argument and associated enum and pass the fill_super callback and a "bool reconf" instead. Also mark the function static given that there are no users outside of super.c. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Documentation: mount_api: change kernel log wording

Change wording to say that messages are logged to the kernel log buffer instead of to dmesg. dmesg is just one program that can print the kernel log buffer.
