A regression has been reported by Nicolas Boichat, found while using the
copy_file_range syscall to copy a tracefs file. Before commit
5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across devices") the
kernel would return -EXDEV to userspace when trying to copy a file across
different filesystems. After this commit, the syscall doesn't fail anymore
and instead returns zero (zero bytes copied), as this file's content is
generated on-the-fly and thus reports a size of zero.
Another regression has been reported by He Zhe - the assertion of
WARN_ON_ONCE(ret == -EOPNOTSUPP) can be triggered from userspace when
copying from a sysfs file whose read operation may return -EOPNOTSUPP.
Since we do not have test coverage for copy_file_range() between any
two types of filesystems, the best way to avoid these sort of issues
in the future is for the kernel to be more picky about filesystems that
are allowed to do copy_file_range().
This patch restores some cross-filesystem copy restrictions that existed
prior to commit 5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices"), namely, cross-sb copy is not allowed for filesystems that do
not implement ->copy_file_range().
Filesystems that do implement ->copy_file_range() have full control of
the result - if this method returns an error, the error is returned to
the user. Before this change this was only true for fs that did not
implement the ->remap_file_range() operation (i.e. nfsv3).
Filesystems that do not implement ->copy_file_range() still fall-back to
the generic_copy_file_range() implementation when the copy is within the
same sb. This helps the kernel can maintain a more consistent story
about which filesystems support copy_file_range().
nfsd and ksmbd servers are modified to fall-back to the
generic_copy_file_range() implementation in case vfs_copy_file_range()
fails with -EOPNOTSUPP or -EXDEV, which preserves behavior of
server-side-copy.
fall-back to generic_copy_file_range() is not implemented for the smb
operation FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE, which is arguably a correct
change of behavior.

Hi Linus,
Can you please take this patch to fix a long standing
regressions of cross-fs copy_file_range().
This has been dragging for too long and I cannot seem to get
Al's attention.
Thanks,
Amir.
Changes since v15:
- Added Tested-by from Luis and Namje
Changes since v14 [1]:
- Allow fallback to generic_copy_file_range() within same sb
- Run the LTP copy_file_range tests
- Assume patch authorship
Changes since v13:
- Rebased and tested over 5.19-rc1
- Never fallback from ->copy_file_range() to generic_copy_file_range()
- Added fallback to generic_copy_file_range() in ksmbd
- Typo fixes in commit message and comments
