Hey Linus, /* Summary */ This contains work for the mount api: - Add a generic helper to parse uid and gid mount options. Currently we open-code the same logic in various filesystems which is error prone. Especially since the verification of uid and gid mount options is a sensitive operation in the face of idmappings. Add a generic helper and convert all filesystems over to it. Make sure that filesystems that are mountable in unprivileged containers verify that the specified uid and gid can be represented in the owning namespace of the filesystem. - Convert hostfs to the new mount api. /* Testing */ clang: Debian clang version 16.0.6 (26) gcc: (Debian 13.2.0-24) All patches are based on v6.10-rc1 and have been sitting in linux-next. No build failures or warnings were observed. /* Conflicts */ No known conflicts. The following changes since commit 1613e604df0cd359cf2a7fbd9be7a0bcfacfabd0: Linux 6.10-rc1 (2024-05-26 15:20:12 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs tags/vfs-6.11.mount.api for you to fetch changes up to eea6a8322efd3982e59c41a5b61948a0b043ca58: fuse: Convert to new uid/gid option parsing helpers (2024-07-03 16:55:11 +0200) Please consider pulling these changes from the signed vfs-6.11.mount.api tag.
