According to ceph documentation [1], "getfattr -d /some/dir" no longer
displays the list of all extended attributes. Both CephFS kernel and
FUSE clients hide this information.

To retrieve the information you have to specify the particular attribute
name e.g. "getfattr -n ceph.dir.rbytes /some/dir".

 "In this round, we've tried to address some performance issues on zoned
  storage such as direct IO and write_hints. In addition, we've migrated
  some IO paths using folio. Meanwhile, there are multiple bug fixes in
  the compression paths, sanity check conditions, and error handlers.

  Enhancements:
   - allow direct io of pinned files for zoned storage
   - assign the write hint per stream by default
   - convert read paths and test_writeback to folio
   - avoid allocating WARM_DATA segment for direct IO

  Bug fixes:
   - fix false alarm on invalid block address
   - fix to add missing iput() in gc_data_segment()
   - fix to release node block count in error path of
     f2fs_new_node_page()
   - compress:
       - don't allow unaligned truncation on released compress inode
       - cover {reserve,release}_compress_blocks() w/ cp_rwsem lock
       - fix error path of inc_valid_block_count()
       - fix to update i_compr_blocks correctly
   - fix block migration when section is not aligned to pow2
   - don't trigger OPU on pinfile for direct IO
   - fix to do sanity check on i_xattr_nid in sanity_check_inode()
   - write missing last sum blk of file pinning section
   - clear writeback when compression failed
   - fix to adjust appropirate defragment pg_end

  As usual, there are several minor code clean-ups, and fixes to manage
  missing corner cases in the error paths"

Pull xfs updates from Chandan Babu:
 "Online repair feature continues to be expanded. Also, we now support
  delayed allocation for realtime devices which have an extent size that
  is equal to filesystem's block size.

  New code:

   - Introduce Parent Pointer extended attribute for inodes

   - Bring back delalloc support for realtime devices which have an
     extent size that is equal to filesystem's block size

   - Improve performance of log incompat feature handling

  Online Repair:

   - Implement atomic file content exchanges i.e. exchange ranges of
     bytes between two files atomically

   - Create temporary files to repair file-based metadata. This uses
     atomic file content exchange facility to swap file fork mappings
     between the temporary file and the metadata inode

   - Allow callers of directory/xattr code to set an explicit owner
     number to be written into the header fields of any new blocks that
     are created. This is required to avoid walking every block of the
     new structure and modify their ownership during online repair

   - Repair more data structures:
       - Extended attributes
       - Inode unlinked state
       - Directories
       - Symbolic links
       - AGI's unlinked inode list
       - Parent pointers

   - Move Orphan files to lost and found directory

   - Fixes for Inode repair functionality

   - Introduce a new sub-AG FITRIM implementation to reduce the duration
     for which the AGF lock is held

   - Updates for the design documentation

   - Use Parent Pointers to assist in checking directories, parent
     pointers, extended attributes, and link counts

  Fixes:

   - Prevent userspace from reading invalid file data due to incorrect.
     updation of file size when performing a non-atomic clone operation

   - Minor fixes to online repair

   - Fix confusing return values from xfs_bmapi_write()

   - Fix an out of bounds access due to incorrect h_size during log
     recovery

   - Defer upgrading the extent counters in xfs_reflink_end_cow_extent()
     until we know we are going to modify the extent mapping

   - Remove racy access to if_bytes check in
     xfs_reflink_end_cow_extent()

   - Fix sparse warnings

  Cleanups:

   - Hold inode locks on all files involved in a rename until the
     completion of the operation. This is in preparation for the parent
     pointers patchset where parent pointers are applied in a separate
     chained update from the actual directory update

   - Compile out v4 support when disabled

   - Cleanup xfs_extent_busy_clear()

   - Remove unused flags and fields from struct xfs_da_args

   - Remove definitions of unused functions

   - Improve extended attribute validation

   - Add higher level directory operations helpers to remove duplication
     of code

   - Cleanup quota (un)reservation interfaces"

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:

 - More safety fixes, primarily found by syzbot

 - Run the upgrade/downgrade paths in nochnages mode. Nochanges mode is
   primarily for testing fsck/recovery in dry run mode, so it shouldn't
   change anything besides disabling writes and holding dirty metadata
   in memory.

   The idea here was to reduce the amount of activity if we can't write
   anything out, so that bringing up a filesystem in "super ro" mode
   would be more lilkely to work for data recovery - but norecovery is
   the correct option for this.

 - btree_trans-&gt;locked; we now track whether a btree_trans has any btree
   nodes locked, and this is used for improved assertions related to
   trans_unlock() and trans_relock(). We'll also be using it for
   improving how we work with lockdep in the future: we don't want
   lockdep to be tracking individual btree node locks because we take
   too many for lockdep to track, and it's not necessary since we have a
   cycle detector.

 - Trigger improvements that are prep work for online fsck

 - BTREE_TRIGGER_check_repair; this regularizes how we do some repair
   work for extents that goes with running triggers in fsck, and fixes
   some subtle issues with transaction restarts there.

 - bch2_snapshot_equiv() has now been ripped out of fsck.c; snapshot
   equivalence classes are for when snapshot deletion leaves behind
   redundant snapshot nodes, but snapshot deletion now cleans this up
   right away, so the abstraction doesn't need to leak.

 - Improvements to how we resume writing to the journal in recovery. The
   code for picking the new place to write when reading the journal is
   greatly simplified and we also store the position in the superblock
   for when we don't read the journal; this means that we preserve more
   of the journal for list_journal debugging.

 - Improvements to sysfs btree_cache and btree_node_cache, for debugging
   memory reclaim.

 - We now detect when we've blocked for 10 seconds on the allocator in
   the write path and dump some useful info.

 - Safety fixes for devices references: this is a big series that
   changes almost all device lookups to properly check if the device
   exists and take a reference to it.

   Previously we assumed that if a bkey exists that references a device
   then the device must exist, and this was enforced in .invalid
   methods, but this was incorrect because it meant device removal
   relied on accounting being correct to not leave keys pointing to
   invalid devices, and that's not something we can assume.

   Getting the "pointer to invalid device" checks out of our .invalid()
   methods fixes some long standing device removal bugs; the only
   outstanding bug with device removal now is a race between the discard
   path and deleting alloc info, which should be easily fixed.

 - The allocator now prefers not to expand the new
   member_info.btree_allocated bitmap, meaning if repair ever requires
   scanning for btree nodes (because of a corrupt interior nodes) we
   won't have to scan the whole device(s).

 - New coding style document, which among other things talks about the
   correct usage of assertions

Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton:
 "The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM,
  documented (hopefully adequately) in the respective changelogs.
  Notable series include:

   - Lucas Stach has provided some page-mapping cleanup/consolidation/
     maintainability work in the series "mm/treewide: Remove pXd_huge()
     API".

   - In the series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with
     MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy", Donet Tom has optimized mempolicy's
     MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY mode, yielding almost doubled performance in
     one test.

   - In their series "Memory allocation profiling" Kent Overstreet and
     Suren Baghdasaryan have contributed a means of determining (via
     /proc/allocinfo) whereabouts in the kernel memory is being
     allocated: number of calls and amount of memory.

   - Matthew Wilcox has provided the series "Various significant MM
     patches" which does a number of rather unrelated things, but in
     largely similar code sites.

   - In his series "mm: page_alloc: freelist migratetype hygiene"
     Johannes Weiner has fixed the page allocator's handling of
     migratetype requests, with resulting improvements in compaction
     efficiency.

   - In the series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent"
     Baolin Wang has fixed a hugetlb migration issue, which should
     improve hugetlb allocation reliability.

   - Liu Shixin has hit an I/O meltdown caused by readahead in a
     memory-tight memcg. Addressed in the series "Fix I/O high when
     memory almost met memcg limit".

   - In the series "mm/filemap: optimize folio adding and splitting"
     Kairui Song has optimized pagecache insertion, yielding ~10%
     performance improvement in one test.

   - Baoquan He has cleaned up and consolidated the early zone
     initialization code in the series "mm/mm_init.c: refactor
     free_area_init_core()".

	"Use folio APIs in procfs"
	"Clean up __folio_put()"
	"Some cleanups for memory-failure"
	"Remove page_mapping()"
	"More folio compat code removal"

   - David Hildenbrand chipped in with "fs/proc/task_mmu: convert
     hugetlb functions to work on folis".

   - Code consolidation and cleanup work related to GUP's handling of
     hugetlbs in Peter Xu's series "mm/gup: Unify hugetlb, part 2".

   - Rick Edgecombe has developed some fixes to stack guard gaps in the
     series "Cover a guard gap corner case".

   - Jinjiang Tu has fixed KSM's behaviour after a fork+exec in the
     series "mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl".

   - Baolin Wang has implemented NUMA balancing for multi-size THPs.
     This is a simple first-cut implementation for now. The series is
     "support multi-size THP numa balancing".

   - Memory tiering fixes/improvements from Ho-Ren (Jack) Chuang in the
     series "Improved Memory Tier Creation for CPUless NUMA Nodes".
     Fixes the initialization code so that migration between different
     memory types works as intended.

   - David Hildenbrand has improved follow_pte() and fixed an errant
     driver in the series "mm: follow_pte() improvements and acrn
     follow_pte() fixes".

   - David also did some cleanup work on large folio mapcounts in his
     series "mm: mapcount for large folios + page_mapcount() cleanups".

   - Folio conversions in KSM in Alex Shi's series "transfer page to
     folio in KSM".

   - Barry Song has added some sysfs stats for monitoring multi-size
     THP's in the series "mm: add per-order mTHP alloc and swpout
     counters".

   - Some zswap cleanups from Yosry Ahmed in the series "zswap
     same-filled and limit checking cleanups".

   - Matthew Wilcox has been looking at buffer_head code and found the
     documentation to be lacking. The series is "Improve buffer head
     documentation".

Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton:
 "The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM,
  documented (hopefully adequately) in the respective changelogs.
  Notable series include:

   - Lucas Stach has provided some page-mapping cleanup/consolidation/
     maintainability work in the series "mm/treewide: Remove pXd_huge()
     API".

   - In the series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with
     MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy", Donet Tom has optimized mempolicy's
     MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY mode, yielding almost doubled performance in
     one test.

   - In their series "Memory allocation profiling" Kent Overstreet and
     Suren Baghdasaryan have contributed a means of determining (via
     /proc/allocinfo) whereabouts in the kernel memory is being
     allocated: number of calls and amount of memory.

   - Matthew Wilcox has provided the series "Various significant MM
     patches" which does a number of rather unrelated things, but in
     largely similar code sites.

   - In his series "mm: page_alloc: freelist migratetype hygiene"
     Johannes Weiner has fixed the page allocator's handling of
     migratetype requests, with resulting improvements in compaction
     efficiency.

   - In the series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent"
     Baolin Wang has fixed a hugetlb migration issue, which should
     improve hugetlb allocation reliability.

   - Liu Shixin has hit an I/O meltdown caused by readahead in a
     memory-tight memcg. Addressed in the series "Fix I/O high when
     memory almost met memcg limit".

   - In the series "mm/filemap: optimize folio adding and splitting"
     Kairui Song has optimized pagecache insertion, yielding ~10%
     performance improvement in one test.

   - Baoquan He has cleaned up and consolidated the early zone
     initialization code in the series "mm/mm_init.c: refactor
     free_area_init_core()".

   - Baoquan has also redone some MM initializatio code in the series
     "mm/init: minor clean up and improvement".

   - MM helper cleanups from Christoph Hellwig in his series "remove
     follow_pfn".

   - More cleanups from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Various
     page-&gt;flags cleanups".

   - Vlastimil Babka has contributed maintainability improvements in the
     series "memcg_kmem hooks refactoring".

   - More folio conversions and cleanups in Matthew Wilcox's series:
	"Convert huge_zero_page to huge_zero_folio"
	"khugepaged folio conversions"
	"Remove page_idle and page_young wrappers"
	"Use folio APIs in procfs"
	"Clean up __folio_put()"
	"Some cleanups for memory-failure"
	"Remove page_mapping()"
	"More folio compat code removal"

   - David Hildenbrand chipped in with "fs/proc/task_mmu: convert
     hugetlb functions to work on folis".

   - Code consolidation and cleanup work related to GUP's handling of
     hugetlbs in Peter Xu's series "mm/gup: Unify hugetlb, part 2".

   - Rick Edgecombe has developed some fixes to stack guard gaps in the
     series "Cover a guard gap corner case".

   - Jinjiang Tu has fixed KSM's behaviour after a fork+exec in the
     series "mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl".

   - Baolin Wang has implemented NUMA balancing for multi-size THPs.
     This is a simple first-cut implementation for now. The series is
     "support multi-size THP numa balancing".

   - Cleanups to vma handling helper functions from Matthew Wilcox in
     the series "Unify vma_address and vma_pgoff_address".

   - Some selftests maintenance work from Dev Jain in the series
     "selftests/mm: mremap_test: Optimizations and style fixes".

   - Improvements to the swapping of multi-size THPs from Ryan Roberts
     in the series "Swap-out mTHP without splitting".

   - Kefeng Wang has significantly optimized the handling of arm64's
     permission page faults in the series
	"arch/mm/fault: accelerate pagefault when badaccess"
	"mm: remove arch's private VM_FAULT_BADMAP/BADACCESS"

   - GUP cleanups from David Hildenbrand in "mm/gup: consistently call
     it GUP-fast".

   - hugetlb fault code cleanups from Vishal Moola in "Hugetlb fault
     path to use struct vm_fault".

   - selftests build fixes from John Hubbard in the series "Fix
     selftests/mm build without requiring "make headers"".

   - Memory tiering fixes/improvements from Ho-Ren (Jack) Chuang in the
     series "Improved Memory Tier Creation for CPUless NUMA Nodes".
     Fixes the initialization code so that migration between different
     memory types works as intended.

   - David Hildenbrand has improved follow_pte() and fixed an errant
     driver in the series "mm: follow_pte() improvements and acrn
     follow_pte() fixes".

   - David also did some cleanup work on large folio mapcounts in his
     series "mm: mapcount for large folios + page_mapcount() cleanups".

   - Folio conversions in KSM in Alex Shi's series "transfer page to
     folio in KSM".

   - Barry Song has added some sysfs stats for monitoring multi-size
     THP's in the series "mm: add per-order mTHP alloc and swpout
     counters".

   - Some zswap cleanups from Yosry Ahmed in the series "zswap
     same-filled and limit checking cleanups".

   - Matthew Wilcox has been looking at buffer_head code and found the
     documentation to be lacking. The series is "Improve buffer head
     documentation".

   - Multi-size THPs get more work, this time from Lance Yang. His
     series "mm/madvise: enhance lazyfreeing with mTHP in madvise_free"
     optimizes the freeing of these things.

   - Kemeng Shi has added more userspace-visible writeback
     instrumentation in the series "Improve visibility of writeback".

   - Kemeng Shi then sent some maintenance work on top in the series
     "Fix and cleanups to page-writeback".

   - Matthew Wilcox reduces mmap_lock traffic in the anon vma code in
     the series "Improve anon_vma scalability for anon VMAs". Intel's
     test bot reported an improbable 3x improvement in one test.

   - SeongJae Park adds some DAMON feature work in the series
	"mm/damon: add a DAMOS filter type for page granularity access recheck"
	"selftests/damon: add DAMOS quota goal test"

   - Also some maintenance work in the series
	"mm/damon/paddr: simplify page level access re-check for pageout"
	"mm/damon: misc fixes and improvements"

   - David Hildenbrand has disabled some known-to-fail selftests ni the
     series "selftests: mm: cow: flag vmsplice() hugetlb tests as
     XFAIL".

   - memcg metadata storage optimizations from Shakeel Butt in "memcg:
     reduce memory consumption by memcg stats".

   - DAX fixes and maintenance work from Vishal Verma in the series
     "dax/bus.c: Fixups for dax-bus locking""
