Subject: [PATCH] block: Make REQ_OP_ZONE_FINISH a write operation
REQ_OP_ZONE_FINISH is defined as "12", which makes
op_is_write(REQ_OP_ZONE_FINISH) return false, despite the fact that a
zone finish operation is an operation that modifies a zone (transition
it to full) and so should be considered as a write operation (albeit
one that does not transfer any data to the device).
Fix this by redefining REQ_OP_ZONE_FINISH to be an odd number (13), and
redefine REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET and REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL using sequential
odd numbers from that new value.
Fixes: 6c1b1da58f8c ("block: add zone open, close and finish operations")

2.25.1
Mount options (uid, gid, mode) are silently ignored when debugfs is
mounted. This is a regression introduced during the conversion to the
new mount API.
When the mount API conversion was done, the parsed options were never
applied to the superblock when it was reused. As a result, the mount
options were ignored when debugfs was mounted.
Fix this by following the same pattern as the tracefs fix in commit
e4d32142d1de ("tracing: Fix tracefs mount options"). Call
debugfs_reconfigure() in debugfs_get_tree() to apply the mount options
to the superblock after it has been created or reused.
As an example, with the bug the "mode" mount option is ignored:
$ mount -o mode=0666 -t debugfs debugfs /tmp/debugfs_test
$ mount | grep debugfs_test
debugfs on /tmp/debugfs_test type debugfs (rw,relatime)
$ ls -ld /tmp/debugfs_test
drwx------ 25 root root 0 Aug 4 14:16 /tmp/debugfs_test
With the fix applied, it works as expected:
$ mount -o mode=0666 -t debugfs debugfs /tmp/debugfs_test
$ mount | grep debugfs_test

Mount options (uid, gid, mode) are silently ignored when debugfs is
mounted. This is a regression introduced during the conversion to the

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
**Backport Status: YES**
This commit is suitable for backporting to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:
1. **Enhanced Debugging for Real-World Issues**: The commit improves
debugging of USB xHCI host controller failures by printing the actual
`xhc_state` value when `queue_command` fails. The commit message
shows real error messages users encounter ("xHCI dying or halted,
can't queue_command"), demonstrating this is a real-world debugging
problem.
2. **Minimal and Safe Change**: The change is extremely small and safe -
it only modifies a debug print statement from:
```c
xhci_dbg(xhci, "xHCI dying or halted, can't queue_command\n");
```
to:
```c
xhci_dbg(xhci, "xHCI dying or halted, can't queue_command. state:
0x%x\n", xhci->xhc_state);
```
3. **No Functional Changes**: This is a pure diagnostic improvement. It
doesn't change any logic, control flow, or data structures. It only
adds the state value (0x%x format) to an existing debug message.
4. **Important for Troubleshooting**: The xHCI driver is critical for
USB functionality, and when it fails with "dying or halted" states,
knowing the exact state helps diagnose whether:
- `XHCI_STATE_DYING` (0x1) - controller is dying
- `XHCI_STATE_HALTED` (0x2) - controller is halted
- Both states (0x3) - controller has both flags set
This distinction is valuable for debugging hardware issues, driver
bugs, or system problems.
5. **Zero Risk of Regression**: Adding a parameter to a debug print
statement has no risk of introducing regressions. The worst case is
the debug message prints the state value.
6. **Follows Stable Rules**: This meets stable kernel criteria as it:
- Fixes a real debugging limitation
- Is obviously correct
- Has been tested (signed-off and accepted by Greg KH)
- Is small (single line change)
- Doesn't add new features, just improves existing diagnostics
The commit helps system administrators and developers diagnose USB
issues more effectively by providing the actual state value rather than
just saying "dying or halted", making it a valuable debugging
enhancement for stable kernels.

From: Gabriel Totev <gabriel.totev(a)zetier.com>
[ Upstream commit c5bf96d20fd787e4909b755de4705d52f3458836 ]
When using AppArmor profiles inside an unprivileged container,
the link operation observes an unshifted ouid.
(tested with LXD and Incus)
For example, root inside container and uid 1000000 outside, with
`owner /root/link l,` profile entry for ln:
/root$ touch chain && ln chain link
==> dmesg
apparmor="DENIED" operation="link" class="file"
namespace="root//lxd-feet_<var-snap-lxd-common-lxd>" profile="linkit"
name="/root/link" pid=1655 comm="ln" requested_mask="l" denied_mask="l"
fsuid=1000000 ouid=0 [<== should be 1000000] target="/root/chain"
Fix by mapping inode uid of old_dentry in aa_path_link() rather than
using it directly, similarly to how it's mapped in __file_path_perm()
later in the file.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
**Backport Status: YES**
This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:
1. **Clear Bug Fix**: This fixes a real bug where AppArmor incorrectly
reports the unshifted uid when mediating hard link operations inside
user namespaces/containers. The commit message provides a concrete
example showing ouid=0 instead of the expected ouid=1000000 in
container logs.
2. **Security Impact**: This is a security-relevant bug that causes
AppArmor policy enforcement to behave incorrectly in containerized
environments. The owner-based AppArmor rules (like `owner /root/link
l,`) won't work correctly because the uid comparison is done with the
wrong (unshifted) value.
3. **Minimal and Contained Fix**: The change is small and surgical - it
only modifies the aa_path_link() function to properly map the inode
uid through the mount's idmapping, following the exact same pattern
already used in __file_path_perm():
- Uses `i_uid_into_vfsuid(mnt_idmap(target.mnt), inode)` to get the
vfsuid
- Converts it back with `vfsuid_into_kuid(vfsuid)` for the path_cond
structure
4. **No New Features or Architecture Changes**: This is purely a bug fix
that makes aa_path_link() consistent with how __file_path_perm()
already handles uid mapping. No new functionality is added.
5. **Container/User Namespace Compatibility**: With the widespread use
of containers (LXD, Incus, Docker with userns), this bug affects many
production systems. The fix ensures AppArmor policies work correctly
in these environments.
6. **Low Risk**: The change follows an established pattern in the
codebase (from __file_path_perm) and only affects the specific case
of hard link permission checks in user namespaces. The risk of
regression is minimal.
7. **Clear Testing**: The commit message indicates this was tested with
LXD and Incus containers, showing the issue is reproducible and the
fix validated.
The code change is straightforward - replacing direct access to
`d_backing_inode(old_dentry)->i_uid` with proper idmapping-aware
conversion that respects user namespace uid shifts. This makes
aa_path_link() consistent with other AppArmor file operations that
already handle idmapped mounts correctly.
