Merge tag 'erofs-for-5.19-rc1-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs

Pull more erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
 "This is a follow-up to the main updates, including some fixes of
  fscache mode related to compressed inodes and a cachefiles tracepoint.
  There is also a patch to fix an unexpected decompression strategy
  change due to a cleanup in the past. All the fixes are quite small.

  Apart from these, documentation is also updated for a better
  description of recent new features.

  In addition, this has some trivial cleanups without actual code logic
  changes, so I could have a more recent codebase to work on folios and
  avoiding the PG_error page flag for the next cycle.

  Summary:

   - Leave compressed inodes unsupported in fscache mode for now

   - Avoid crash when using tracepoint cachefiles_prep_read

   - Fix `backmost' behavior due to a recent cleanup

   - Update documentation for better description of recent new features

   - Several decompression cleanups w/o logical change"

Enhanced Read-Only File System - EROFS
EROFS - Enhanced Read-Only File System
======================================
Overview
========
EROFS file-system stands for Enhanced Read-Only File System. Different
from other read-only file systems, it aims to be designed for flexibility,
scalability, but be kept simple and high performance.
EROFS filesystem stands for Enhanced Read-Only File System. It aims to form a
generic read-only filesystem solution for various read-only use cases instead
of just focusing on storage space saving without considering any side effects
of runtime performance.
It is designed as a better filesystem solution for the following scenarios:
It is designed to meet the needs of flexibility, feature extendability and user
payload friendly, etc. Apart from those, it is still kept as a simple
random-access friendly high-performance filesystem to get rid of unneeded I/O
amplification and memory-resident overhead compared to similar approaches.
It is implemented to be a better choice for the following scenarios:
- read-only storage media or
- part of a fully trusted read-only solution, which means it needs to be
immutable and bit-for-bit identical to the official golden image for
their releases due to security and other considerations and
their releases due to security or other considerations and
- hope to minimize extra storage space with guaranteed end-to-end performance
by using compact layout, transparent file compression and direct access,
especially for those embedded devices with limited memory and high-density
hosts with numerous containers;
hosts with numerous containers.
Here is the main features of EROFS:
- Little endian on-disk design;
- Currently 4KB block size (nobh) and therefore maximum 16TB address space;
- Metadata & data could be mixed by design;
- 4KiB block size and 32-bit block addresses, therefore 16TiB address space
at most for now;
- 2 inode versions for different requirements:
- Two inode layouts for different requirements:
===================== ============ =====================================
===================== ============ ======================================
compact (v1) extended (v2)
===================== ============ =====================================
===================== ============ ======================================
Inode metadata size 32 bytes 64 bytes
Max file size 4 GB 16 EB (also limited by max. vol size)
Max file size 4 GiB 16 EiB (also limited by max. vol size)
Max uids/gids 65536 4294967296
Per-inode timestamp no yes (64 + 32-bit timestamp)
Max hardlinks 65536 4294967296
Metadata reserved 4 bytes 14 bytes
===================== ============ =====================================
Metadata reserved 8 bytes 18 bytes
===================== ============ ======================================
- Metadata and data could be mixed as an option;
- Support extended attributes (xattrs) as an option;
- Support xattr inline and tail-end data inline for all files;
- Support tailpacking data and xattr inline compared to byte-addressed
unaligned metadata or smaller block size alternatives;
- Support POSIX.1e ACLs by using xattrs;
- Support transparent data compression as an option:
LZ4 algorithm with the fixed-sized output compression for high performance;
LZ4 and MicroLZMA algorithms can be used on a per-file basis; In addition,
inplace decompression is also supported to avoid bounce compressed buffers
and page cache thrashing.
- Support direct I/O on uncompressed files to avoid double caching for loop
devices;
- Multiple device support for multi-layer container images.
- Support FSDAX on uncompressed images for secure containers and ramdisks in
order to get rid of unnecessary page cache.
- Support multiple devices for multi blob container images;
- Support file-based on-demand loading with the Fscache infrastructure.
