The -&gt;put_super callback is called from generic_shutdown_super() in case of
a fully initialized sb.  This is called from kill_***_super(), which is
called from -&gt;kill_sb instances.

Fuse uses -&gt;put_super to destroy the fs specific fuse_mount and drop the
reference to the fuse_conn, while it does the same on each error case
during sb setup.

This patch moves the destruction from fuse_put_super() to
fuse_mount_destroy(), called at the end of all -&gt;kill_sb instances.  A
follup patch will clean up the error paths.

 - Allow mounting an active fuse device. Previously the fuse device
   would always be mounted during initialization, and sharing a fuse
   superblock was only possible through mount or namespace cloning

 - Fix data flushing in syncfs (virtiofs only)

 - Fix data flushing in copy_file_range()

 - Fix a possible deadlock in atomic O_TRUNC

 - Misc fixes and cleanups

In case of fuse the MM subsystem doesn't guarantee that page writeback
completes by the time -&gt;sync_fs() is called.  This is because fuse
completes page writeback immediately to prevent DoS of memory reclaim by
the userspace file server.

This means that fuse itself must ensure that writes are synced before
sending the SYNCFS request to the server.

Introduce sync buckets, that hold a counter for the number of outstanding
write requests.  On syncfs replace the current bucket with a new one and
wait until the old bucket's counter goes down to zero.

It is possible to have multiple syncfs calls in parallel, in which case
there could be more than one waited-on buckets.  Descendant buckets must
not complete until the parent completes.  Add a count to the child (new)
bucket until the (parent) old bucket completes.

Use RCU protection to dereference the current bucket and to wake up an
emptied bucket.  Use fc-&gt;lock to protect against parallel assignments to
the current bucket.

This leaves just the counter to be a possible scalability issue.  The
fc-&gt;num_waiting counter has a similar issue, so both should be addressed at
the same time.

Pull overlayfs update from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Copy up immutable/append/sync/noatime attributes (Amir Goldstein)

 - Improve performance by enabling RCU lookup.

 - Misc fixes and improvements

The reason this touches so many files is that the -&gt;get_acl() method now
gets a "bool rcu" argument.  The -&gt;get_acl() API was updated based on
comments from Al and Linus:

Use invalidate_lock instead of fuse's private i_mmap_sem. The intended
purpose is exactly the same. By this conversion we fix a long standing
race between hole punching and read(2) / readahead(2) paths that can
lead to stale page cache contents.

<title>fuse: fix illegal access to inode with reused nodeid</title>

Server responds to LOOKUP and other ops (READDIRPLUS/CREATE/MKNOD/...)
with ourarg containing nodeid and generation.

If a fuse inode is found in inode cache with the same nodeid but different
generation, the existing fuse inode should be unhashed and marked "bad" and
a new inode with the new generation should be hashed instead.

This can happen, for example, with passhrough fuse filesystem that returns
the real filesystem ino/generation on lookup and where real inode numbers
can get recycled due to real files being unlinked not via the fuse
passthrough filesystem.

With current code, this situation will not be detected and an old fuse
dentry that used to point to an older generation real inode, can be used to
access a completely new inode, which should be accessed only via the new
dentry.

Note that because the FORGET message carries the nodeid w/o generation, the
server should wait to get FORGET counts for the nlookup counts of the old
and reused inodes combined, before it can free the resources associated to
that nodeid.

<title>fuse: add dedicated filesystem context ops for submounts</title>

<content type='text'>
The creation of a submount is open-coded in fuse_dentry_automount().
This brings a lot of complexity and we recently had to fix bugs
because we weren't setting SB_BORN or because we were unlocking
sb-&gt;s_umount before sb was fully configured. Most of these could
have been avoided by using the mount API instead of open-coding.

Basically, this means coming up with a proper -&gt;get_tree()
implementation for submounts and call vfs_get_tree(), or better
fc_mount().

The creation of the superblock for submounts is quite different from
the root mount. Especially, it doesn't require to allocate a FUSE
filesystem context, nor to parse parameters.

Introduce a dedicated context ops for submounts to make this clear.
This is just a placeholder for now, fuse_get_tree_submount() will
be populated in a subsequent patch.

Only visible change is that we stop allocating/freeing a useless FUSE
filesystem context with submounts.
