Hey everyone, after we finished the introduction of the new posix acl api last cycle we still left the generic POSIX ACL xattr handlers around in the filesystems xattr handler registered at sb->s_xattr for two reasons. First, because a few filesystems rely on the ->list() method of the generic POSIX ACL xattr handlers in their ->listxattr() inode operation. Second, during inode initalization in inode_init_always() the registered xattr handlers in sb->s_xattr are used to raise IOP_XATTR in inode->i_opflags. This series adresses both issues and makes it possible to remove the generic POSIX ACL xattr handlers from the sb->s_xattr list of all filesystems. This is a crucial step as the generic POSIX ACL xattr handlers aren't used for POSIX ACLs anymore. They are never used apart from the two cases above. To fix this we make POSIX ACLs independent of IOP_XATTR. For filesystems like btrfs or reiserfs that want to disable xattrs and POSIX ACLs for some inodes we give them a dedicated IOP_NOACL flag they can raise as discussed in the previous iteration. The series also simplifies a the ->listxattr() implementation for all filesystems that rely on the ->list() method of the xattr handlers. After this we've removed the generic POSIX ACL xattr handlers completely from sb->s_xattr. All filesystems with reasonable integration into xfstests have been tested with: ./check -g acl,attr,cap,idmapped,io_uring,perms,unlink All tests pass without regression on xfstests for-next branch. Since erofs doesn't have integration into xfstests yet afaict I have tested it with the testuite available in erofs-utils. They also all pass without any regressions. Thanks!

Decouple POSIX ACLs from IOP_XATTR. - Keep generic posix acl xattr handlers so filesystems that use array based indexing on xattr handlers can continue to do so. - Minor fixes. - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230125-fs-acl-remove-generic-xattr-handlers-v1-0-6cf155b492b6@kernel.org --- Christian Brauner (8): fs: don't use IOP_XATTR for posix acls xattr: simplify listxattr helpers xattr: add listxattr helper xattr: remove unused argument fs: drop unused posix acl handlers fs: simplify ->listxattr() implementation reiserfs: rework ->listxattr() implementation fs: rename generic posix acl handlers fs/9p/xattr.c | 4 -- fs/bad_inode.c | 3 +- fs/btrfs/inode.c | 2 +- fs/btrfs/xattr.c | 4 -- fs/ceph/xattr.c | 4 -- fs/cifs/xattr.c | 4 -- fs/ecryptfs/inode.c | 4 -- fs/erofs/xattr.c | 12 +---- fs/erofs/xattr.h | 20 +++++--- fs/ext2/xattr.c | 25 +++++----- fs/ext4/xattr.c | 25 +++++----- fs/f2fs/xattr.c | 24 +++++----- fs/gfs2/xattr.c | 2 - fs/jffs2/xattr.c | 29 ++++++------ fs/jfs/xattr.c | 4 -- fs/libfs.c | 3 +- fs/nfs/nfs3_fs.h | 1 - fs/nfs/nfs3acl.c | 6 --- fs/nfs/nfs3super.c | 3 -- fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c | 3 +- fs/ntfs3/xattr.c | 4 -- fs/ocfs2/xattr.c | 14 ++---- fs/orangefs/xattr.c | 2 - fs/overlayfs/copy_up.c | 4 +- fs/overlayfs/super.c | 8 ---- fs/posix_acl.c | 53 +++++++++++++++++---- fs/reiserfs/inode.c | 2 +- fs/reiserfs/namei.c | 4 +- fs/reiserfs/reiserfs.h | 2 +- fs/reiserfs/xattr.c | 74 +++++++++++++++-------------- fs/xattr.c | 101 +++++++++++++++------------------------- fs/xfs/xfs_xattr.c | 4 -- include/linux/fs.h | 1 + include/linux/posix_acl.h | 7 +++ include/linux/posix_acl_xattr.h | 5 +- include/linux/xattr.h | 30 +++++++++++- mm/shmem.c | 4 -- 37 files changed, 245 insertions(+), 256 deletions(-) --- base-commit: ab072681eabe1ce0a9a32d4baa1a27a2d046bc4a change-id: 20230125-fs-acl-remove-generic-xattr-handlers-4cfed8558d88
