Merge tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.iomap' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull iomap updates from Christian Brauner:
"FUSE iomap Support for Buffered Reads:
This adds iomap support for FUSE buffered reads and readahead. This
enables granular uptodate tracking with large folios so only
non-uptodate portions need to be read. Also fixes a race condition
with large folios + writeback cache that could cause data corruption
on partial writes followed by reads.
- Refactored iomap read/readahead bio logic into helpers
- Added caller-provided callbacks for read operations
- Moved buffered IO bio logic into new file
- FUSE now uses iomap for read_folio and readahead
Zero Range Folio Batch Support:
Add folio batch support for iomap_zero_range() to handle dirty
folios over unwritten mappings. Fix raciness issues where dirty data
could be lost during zero range operations.
- filemap_get_folios_tag_range() helper for dirty folio lookup
- Optional zero range dirty folio processing
- XFS fills dirty folios on zero range of unwritten mappings
- Removed old partial EOF zeroing optimization
DIO Write Completions from Interrupt Context:
Restore pre-iomap behavior where pure overwrite completions run
inline rather than being deferred to workqueue. Reduces context
switches for high-performance workloads like ScyllaDB.
- Removed unused IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP code
- Error completions always run in user context (fixes zonefs)
- Reworked REQ_FUA selection logic
- Inverted IOMAP_DIO_INLINE_COMP to IOMAP_DIO_OFFLOAD_COMP
Buffered IO Cleanups:
Some performance and code clarity improvements:
- Replace manual bitmap scanning with find_next_bit()
- Simplify read skip logic for writes
- Optimize pending async writeback accounting
- Better variable naming
- Documentation for iomap_finish_folio_write() requirements
Misaligned Vectors for Zoned XFS:
Enables sub-block aligned vectors in XFS always-COW mode for zoned
devices via new IOMAP_DIO_FSBLOCK_ALIGNED flag.
Bug Fixes:
- Allocate s_dio_done_wq for async reads (fixes syzbot report after
error completion changes)
- Fix iomap_read_end() for already uptodate folios (regression fix)"
