Pull fs-verity support from Eric Biggers: "fs-verity is a filesystem feature that provides Merkle tree based hashing (similar to dm-verity) for individual readonly files, mainly for the purpose of efficient authenticity verification. This pull request includes: (a) The fs/verity/ support layer and documentation. (b) fs-verity support for ext4 and f2fs. Compared to the original fs-verity patchset from last year, the UAPI to enable fs-verity on a file has been greatly simplified. Lots of other things were cleaned up too. fs-verity is planned to be used by two different projects on Android; most of the userspace code is in place already. Another userspace tool ("fsverity-utils"), and xfstests, are also available. e2fsprogs and f2fs-tools already have fs-verity support. Other people have shown interest in using fs-verity too. I've tested this on ext4 and f2fs with xfstests, both the existing tests and the new fs-verity tests. This has also been in linux-next since July 30 with no reported issues except a couple minor ones I found myself and folded in fixes for. Ted and I will be co-maintaining fs-verity" * tag 'fsverity-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/fscrypt: f2fs: add fs-verity support ext4: update on-disk format documentation for fs-verity ext4: add fs-verity read support ext4: add basic fs-verity support fs-verity: support builtin file signatures fs-verity: add SHA-512 support fs-verity: implement FS_IOC_MEASURE_VERITY ioctl fs-verity: implement FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY ioctl fs-verity: add data verification hooks for ->readpages() fs-verity: add the hook for file ->setattr() fs-verity: add the hook for file ->open() fs-verity: add inode and superblock fields fs-verity: add Kconfig and the helper functions for hashing fs: uapi: define verity bit for FS_IOC_GETFLAGS fs-verity: add UAPI header fs-verity: add MAINTAINERS file entry fs-verity: add a documentation file
