Pull idmapping documentation updates from Christian Brauner:
"The bulk of the idmapped work this cycle was adding support for
idmapped mounts to btrfs.
While this required the addition of a (simple) new vfs helper all the
work is going through David Sterba's btrfs tree. It was way simpler to
do it this way rather then forcing David to coordinate between his
btrfs and my tree. Plus I don't care who merges it as long as I feel I
can trust the maintainer and the btrfs folks were really fast and
helpful in reviewing this work.
As always, associated with the btrfs port for idmapped mounts is a new
fstests extension specifically concerned with btrfs ioctls (e.g.
subvolume creation, deletion etc.) on idmapped mounts which can be
found in the fstests repo as 5f8179ce8b00 ("btrfs: introduce btrfs
specific idmapped mounts tests").
Consequently, this cycle the idmapping pull is boring. It only
contains documentation updates, specifically about how idmappings and
idmapped mounts work"

Pull initial ksmbd implementation from Steve French:
"Initial merge of kernel smb3 file server, ksmbd.
The SMB family of protocols is the most widely deployed network
filesystem protocol, the default on Windows and Macs (and even on many
phones and tablets), with clients and servers on all major operating
systems, but lacked a kernel server for Linux. For many cases the
current userspace server choices were suboptimal either due to memory
footprint, performance or difficulty integrating well with advanced
Linux features.
ksmbd is a new kernel module which implements the server-side of the
SMB3 protocol. The target is to provide optimized performance, GPLv2
SMB server, and better lease handling (distributed caching). The
bigger goal is to add new features more rapidly (e.g. RDMA aka
"smbdirect", and recent encryption and signing improvements to the
protocol) which are easier to develop on a smaller, more tightly
optimized kernel server than for example in Samba.
The Samba project is much broader in scope (tools, security services,
LDAP, Active Directory Domain Controller, and a cross platform file
server for a wider variety of purposes) but the user space file server
portion of Samba has proved hard to optimize for some Linux workloads,
including for smaller devices.
This is not meant to replace Samba, but rather be an extension to
allow better optimizing for Linux, and will continue to integrate well
with Samba user space tools and libraries where appropriate. Working
with the Samba team we have already made sure that the configuration
files and xattrs are in a compatible format between the kernel and
user space server.
Various types of functional and regression tests are regularly run
against it. One example is the automated 'buildbot' regression tests
which use the Linux client to test against ksmbd, e.g.
http://smb3-test-rhel-75.southcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com/#/builders/8/builds/56
but other test suites, including Samba's smbtorture functional test
suite are also used regularly"

We added CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING in 2015, and soon after turned it
off in Fedora and RHEL8. Several other distros have followed suit.
I've heard of one problem in all that time: Someone migrated from an
older distro that supported "-o mand" to one that didn't, and the host
had a fstab entry with "mand" in it which broke on reboot. They didn't
actually _use_ mandatory locking so they just removed the mount option
and moved on.
This patch rips out mandatory locking support wholesale from the kernel,
along with the Kconfig option and the Documentation file. It also
changes the mount code to ignore the "mand" mount option instead of
erroring out, and to throw a big, ugly warning.

fscrypt uses a Base64 encoding to encode no-key filenames (the filenames
that are presented to userspace when a directory is listed without its
encryption key). There are many variants of Base64, but the most common
ones are specified by RFC 4648. fscrypt can't use the regular RFC 4648
"base64" variant because "base64" uses the '/' character, which isn't
allowed in filenames. However, RFC 4648 also specifies a "base64url"
variant for use in URLs and filenames. "base64url" is less common than
"base64", but it's still implemented in many programming libraries.
Unfortunately, what fscrypt actually uses is a custom Base64 variant
that differs from "base64url" in several ways:
- The binary data is divided into 6-bit chunks differently.
- Values 62 and 63 are encoded with '+' and ',' instead of '-' and '_'.
- '='-padding isn't used. This isn't a problem per se, as the padding
isn't technically necessary, and RFC 4648 doesn't strictly require it.
But it needs to be properly documented.
There have been two attempts to copy the fscrypt Base64 code into lib/
(https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200821182813.52570-6-jlayton@kernel.org and
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210716110428.9727-5-hare@suse.de), and both
have been caught up by the fscrypt Base64 variant being nonstandard and
not properly documented. Also, the planned use of the fscrypt Base64
code in the CephFS storage back-end will prevent it from being changed
later (whereas currently it can still be changed), so we need to choose
an encoding that we're happy with before it's too late.
Therefore, switch the fscrypt Base64 variant to base64url, in order to
align more closely with RFC 4648 and other implementations and uses of
Base64. However, I opted not to implement '='-padding, as '='-padding
adds complexity, is unnecessary, and isn't required by the RFC.

Currently, serializing operations such as page fault, read, or readahead
against hole punching is rather difficult. The basic race scheme is
like:
fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) read / fault / ..
truncate_inode_pages_range()
<create pages in page
cache here>
<update fs block mapping and free blocks>
Now the problem is in this way read / page fault / readahead can
instantiate pages in page cache with potentially stale data (if blocks
get quickly reused). Avoiding this race is not simple - page locks do
not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given
range. inode->i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under
mmap_sem which ranks below inode->i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes
the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer.
So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock -
that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads /
readahead.

Replacement is called copy_page_from_iter_atomic(); unlike the old primitive the
callers do *not* need to do iov_iter_advance() after it. In case when they end
up consuming less than they'd been given they need to do iov_iter_revert() on
everything they had not consumed. That, however, needs to be done only on slow
paths.
All in-tree callers converted. And that kills the last user of iterate_all_kinds()
