rootfs: Fix support for rootfstype= when root= is given

rootfs: Fix support for rootfstype= when root= is given

commit 21528c69a0d8483f7c6345b1a0bc8d8975e9a172 upstream.

Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.rst states:

If CONFIG_TMPFS is enabled, rootfs will use tmpfs instead of ramfs by
default. To force ramfs, add "rootfstype=ramfs" to the kernel command
line.

This currently does not work when root= is provided since then
saved_root_name contains a string and rootfstype= is ignored. Therefore,
ramfs is currently always chosen when root= is provided.

The current behavior for rootfs's filesystem is:

root= | rootfstype= | chosen rootfs filesystem
------------+-------------+--------------------------
unspecified | unspecified | tmpfs
unspecified | tmpfs | tmpfs
unspecified | ramfs | ramfs
provided | ignored | ramfs

rootfstype= should be respected regardless whether root= is given,
as shown below:

root= | rootfstype= | chosen rootfs filesystem
------------+-------------+--------------------------
unspecified | unspecified | tmpfs (as before)
unspecified | tmpfs | tmpfs (as before)
unspecified | ramfs | ramfs (as before)
provided | unspecified | ramfs (compatibility with before)
provided | tmpfs | tmpfs (new)
provided | ramfs | ramfs (new)

This table represents the new behavior.

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.

Features:

- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics

- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice

- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up

- Use synchronous fput for the close system call

Cleanups:

- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper

- Simplify epoll allocation helper

- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio

- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio

- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking

- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus

- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api

- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code

- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs

- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()

Fixes:

- Fix various kernel-doc issues

- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE

- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts

- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs

- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec

- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions

- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"

init: Add support for rootwait timeout parameter

Add an optional timeout arg to 'rootwait' as the maximum time in
seconds to wait for the root device to show up before attempting
forced mount of the root filesystem.

Use case:
In case of device mapper usage for the rootfs (e.g. root=/dev/dm-0),
if the mapper is not able to create the virtual block for any reason
(wrong arguments, bad dm-verity signature, etc), the `rootwait` param
causes the kernel to wait forever. It may however be desirable to only
wait for a given time and then panic (force mount) to cause device reset.
This gives the bootloader a chance to detect the problem and to take some
measures, such as marking the booted partition as bad (for A/B case) or
entering a recovery mode.

In success case, mounting happens as soon as the root device is ready,
unlike the existing 'rootdelay' parameter which performs an unconditional
pause.

Merge tag 'v6.5/vfs.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual fs

Features:

- Use mode 0600 for file created by cachefilesd so it can be run by
unprivileged users. This aligns them with directories which are
already created with mode 0700 by cachefilesd

- Reorder a few members in struct file to prevent some false sharing
scenarios

- Indicate that an eventfd is used a semaphore in the eventfd's
fdinfo procfs file

- Add a missing uapi header for eventfd exposing relevant uapi
defines

- Let the VFS protect transitions of a superblock from read-only to
read-write in addition to the protection it already provides for
transitions from read-write to read-only. Protecting read-only to
read-write transitions allows filesystems such as ext4 to perform
internal writes, keeping writers away until the transition is
completed

Cleanups:

- Arnd removed the architecture specific arch_report_meminfo()
prototypes and added a generic one into procfs.h. Note, we got a
report about a warning in amdpgpu codepaths that suggested this was
bisectable to this change but we concluded it was a false positive

- Remove unused parameters from split_fs_names()

- Rename put_and_unmap_page() to unmap_and_put_page() to let the name
reflect the order of the cleanup operation that has to unmap before
the actual put

- Unexport buffer_check_dirty_writeback() as it is not used outside
of block device aops

- Stop allocating aio rings from highmem

- Protecting read-{only,write} transitions in the VFS used open-coded
barriers in various places. Replace them with proper little helpers
and document both the helpers and all barrier interactions involved
when transitioning between read-{only,write} states

- Use flexible array members in old readdir codepaths

Fixes:

- Use the correct type __poll_t for epoll and eventfd

- Replace all deprecated strlcpy() invocations, whose return value
isn't checked with an equivalent strscpy() call

- Fix some kernel-doc warnings in fs/open.c

- Reduce the stack usage in jffs2's xattr codepaths finally getting
rid of this: fs/jffs2/xattr.c:887:1: error: the frame size of 1088
bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
royally annoying compilation warning

- Use __FMODE_NONOTIFY instead of FMODE_NONOTIFY where an int and not
fmode_t is required to avoid fmode_t to integer degradation
warnings

- Create coredumps with O_WRONLY instead of O_RDWR. There's a long
explanation in that commit how O_RDWR is actually a bug which we
found out with the help of Linus and git archeology

- Fix "no previous prototype" warnings in the pipe codepaths

- Add overflow calculations for remap_verify_area() as a signed
addition overflow could be triggered in xfstests

- Fix a null pointer dereference in sysv

- Use an unsigned variable for length calculations in jfs avoiding
compilation warnings with gcc 13

- Fix a dangling pipe pointer in the watch queue codepath

- The legacy mount option parser provided as a fallback by the VFS
for filesystems not yet converted to the new mount api did prefix
the generated mount option string with a leading ',' causing issues
for some filesystems

- Fix a repeated word in a comment in fs.h

- autofs: Update the ctime when mtime is updated as mandated by
POSIX"

init: handle ubi/mtd root mounting like all other root types

Assign a Root_Generic magic value for UBI/MTD root and handle the root
mounting in mount_root like all other root types. Besides making the
code more clear this also means that UBI/MTD root can be used together
with an initrd (not that anyone should care).

Also factor parsing of the root name into a helper now that it can
be easily done and will get more complicated with subsequent patches.

is only used for error messages when mounting the root device fails.
