2026-07-22wifi: carl9170: mac80211: document spatial multiplexing power save handlerMasi Osmani1-1/+7
Replace the bare TODO comment in the SMPS configuration handler with documentation explaining why the driver accepts but does not act on SMPS mode changes. The AR9170 advertises SM_PS disabled (both chains always active) in its HT capabilities. While mac80211 may still send SMPS configuration requests, implementing static or dynamic SMPS would require firmware support for per-chain enable/disable that the AR9170 firmware (v1.9.9) does not provide.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: fix scan command endianness on big endianAlexander Wilhelm2-8/+22
ath12k_wmi_scan_req_arg stores scan parameters in CPU-native byte order, while ath12k_wmi_send_scan_start_cmd() writes them into a WMI command buffer whose contents must be in little-endian format. The existing code copies the channel list and writes s_ssid and hint_bssid related values to the command buffer without endian conversion. As a result, scan requests contain invalid parameters on big-endian systems and fail. Convert the channel list as well as the s_ssid and hint_bssid related values to little-endian before writing them to the WMI command buffer. This preserves the existing behaviour on little-endian systems while fixing scan requests on big-endian architectures.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: allocate HOST_DDR and BDF regions after Q6 RO regionAaradhana Sahu1-4/+15
Currently, the Q6 region contains a read-only firmware region along with the BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE and HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE memory areas. The firmware expects these writable memory regions to be assigned after the Q6 read-only section. However, the ath12k driver currently allocates the HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE starting from the base of the Q6 region, which includes the read-only firmware area. As a result, the allocated memory regions overlap with the read-only section, causing the firmware to assert during QMI memory allocation. The Q6 memory region layout is as follows: Q6 Reserved Memory +--------------------------------------+ | | | Read-only Firmware Region | | (Q6 RO Region) | | | +--------------------------------------+ <--- bdf_addr_offset | Writable Memory Region | | (BDF + HOST_DDR allocations) | | | +--------------------------------------+ Fix this by allocating the required memory regions only after the end of the read-only region in the Q6 address space. The bdf_addr_offset parameter indicates where the writable region starts. Both HOST_DDR and BDF regions are allocated sequentially after this offset, with each region placed immediately after the previous one to avoid gaps and overlaps.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: switch to name-based reserved memory lookupAaradhana Sahu4-54/+29
The driver currently retrieves reserved memory regions using index-based lookup, which depends on the ordering of reserved-memory nodes in the device tree. Since different platforms define these regions in varying orders and combinations, this approach is not compatible and can result in incorrect memory region access. Switch to looking up memory regions by name instead of index so it does not depend on node order. Use names already defined in qcom,ipq5332-wifi.yaml, so there are no backward compatibility issues.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: Set congestion control max MSDU countThiraviyam Mariyappan4-0/+21
Currently when running 128 clients UDP DL test in 5 GHz HE80 (NSS 2x2), firmware uses the default max MSDU count (16K MSDUs). This lower limit causes the firmware to compute a smaller TQM drop threshold, aggregate packets at a reduced rate, and results in increased packet drops with TQM drop threshold as the completion reason. To fix this issue, set WMI_PDEV_PARAM_SET_CONG_CTRL_MAX_MSDUS to the TX descriptor count using ath12k_wmi_pdev_set_param(). This increases the TQM drop threshold, reduces drop events, and improves throughput from ~722 Mbps to ~1060 Mbps with 1200 Mbps ingress. Add a new HW capability flag (supports_cong_ctrl_max_msdus) and enable the WMI parameter only on supported platforms.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: update IPQ5332 BDF address offsetAaradhana Sahu1-1/+1
In the ath12k driver, the BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE address is derived by adding a fixed bdf_addr_offset to the WCSS Q6 region base address. The current offset (0xC00000) works only when the Q6 region contains the IPQ5332 ucode alone. On some IPQ5332 platform variants, additional devices share the same WCSS Q6 processor and place their firmware ucode in the same Q6 region. This results in multiple ucode sections within the region, and the existing offset can cause the BDF memory region to overlap with firmware read-only sections, which can lead to firmware crash and driver boot failure. Increase the bdf_addr_offset to 0x1A00000, determined by analyzing firmware memory maps across all known IPQ5332 platform variants. This value represents the upper bound of the largest combined firmware and ensures all IPQ5332 variants can allocate the BDF region safely without overlapping firmware regions.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: fix ML-STA authentication timeout on QCC2072Miaoqing Pan2-0/+3
QCC2072 firmware interprets the MLO_LINK_ADD and MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flags to control the link state during MLO vdev start. MLO_LINK_ADD indicates that a link is being added, while MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE specifies that the link should become active during the start. When an association link is added without setting MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE, the firmware may transition the link into a suspended state. In this case, authentication frames transmitted by the host can be dropped, leading to repeated authentication retries and eventual timeout, for example: wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 1/3) wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 2/3) wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 3/3) wlp1s0: authentication with <AP> timed out Avoid triggering this behavior by setting the MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flag when MLO_ASSOC_LINK is set, which tells the firmware that the current vdev must not enter suspend mode Note that this change relies on firmware behavior observed on the QCC2072 platform. The firmware on WCN7850 and QCN9274 does not use the MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flag, so this change is effectively a no-op on those platforms Tested-on: QCC2072 hw1.0 PCI WLAN.COL.1.0.c2-00068-QCACOLSWPL_V1_TO_SILICONZ-1 Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.1.c5-00302-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.115823.3 Fixes: d8e1f4a19310 ("wifi: ath12k: enable QCC2072 support") Signed-off-by: Miaoqing Pan <miaoqing.pan@oss.qualcomm.com> Reviewed-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanthakumar.thiagarajan@oss.qualcomm.com> Reviewed-by: Baochen Qiang <baochen.qiang@oss.qualcomm.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260704073000.3300099-1-miaoqing.pan@oss.qualcomm.com Signed-off-by: Jeff Johnson <jeff.johnson@oss.qualcomm.com>

The directory buffer itself is still referenced. ext4_dir_llseek() invalidates the directory cookie so that ext4_readdir() rescans directory entries from the start of the block. The rescan checks only the lower bound of rec_len before advancing. A corrupted rec_len can therefore place the offset where the block has insufficient space for a complete directory entry. The rescan itself may dereference that truncated entry, or the main loop may pass it to __ext4_check_dir_entry(). The latter reads de->rec_len before validating the range. For example: block offset 0 4092 4096 |---- de1.rec_len = 4092 -----|----| de2.inode | de2.rec_len ^ OOB, reported as UAF de2 starts at offset 4092 in this 4 KiB block. Its four-byte inode fits in the block, but its rec_len starts at offset 4096 and crosses the boundary. The minimum safe length is inode-dependent. Encrypted and casefolded directory entries need eight additional hash bytes, while a valid metadata checksum tail is only 12 bytes. Cache the metadata checksum feature state and derive the minimum directory entry length from the on-disk format. Use it to bound both the rescan and the offset passed to the main loop. Report an offset in a truncated block tail and skip the remainder of the block, while continuing to accept an offset exactly at the block boundary.

After implementing bitwise flags for tracking the inline data write state in the address space fsdata parameter, the CONVERT_INLINE_DATA state flag is left unused and can be removed. Perform this clean-up by: 1) Deleting the CONVERT_INLINE_DATA definition from ext4.h. 2) Removing the void **fsdata argument from both the forward declaration and the definition of the internal helper ext4_da_convert_inline_data_to_extent(). 3) Removing the void **fsdata argument from the declaration and definition of ext4_generic_write_inline_data() and updating the caller ext4_try_to_write_inline_data() and the internal re-alloc retry logic accordingly. 4) Updating ext4_da_write_begin() to call ext4_generic_write_inline_data() without the fsdata parameter.

2026-07-22ext4: use fsdata to track inline data write state and fix raceAditya Prakash Srivastava3-12/+27
Instead of checking the live inode state (ext4_has_inline_data(inode) and ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA)) in the write_end handlers, use the fsdata parameter of the address space operations to explicitly pass down the state in which write_begin prepared the write. A concurrent thread (such as ext4_page_mkwrite()) can convert the inline data to an extent between write_begin and write_end. If this happens, the write_end handlers would previously miss the inline write_end path and fall through to extent-based write_end logic. However, since block buffers were never allocated in write_begin, this resulted in NULL pointer dereferences or data loss because folio_buffers(folio) was NULL. Define EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE (4) as a bit flag (Bit 2), treating fsdata as bitwise flags rather than mutually exclusive enums to keep states of the write path independent. Communicate this state via fsdata: 1) ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin() set the EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit in *fsdata via bitwise OR when an inline write is successfully prepared. 2) On entry, ext4_write_begin() clears the EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit to safely handle VFS retries (where generic_perform_write() bypasses the fsdata initialization on its retry jump). 3) The write_end handlers perform a bitwise AND to check if the EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit is set and invoke the inline write_end helper accordingly. Furthermore, during a buffered write, ext4_write_inline_data_end() acquires the xattr lock after preparing the write. If a concurrent page fault (ext4_page_mkwrite()) converts the inline data to an extent after the write_end handlers check the state but before ext4_write_inline_data_end() acquires the xattr write lock, the subsequent check will trigger a kernel panic via BUG_ON(!ext4_has_inline_data(inode)). To keep git history working and bisectability clean, replace the BUG_ON check in ext4_write_inline_data_end() with a graceful error- handling retry path in this same commit. If the inline data is cleared after locking the xattr, we safely release all resources (releasing iloc.bh, unlocking/putting the folio, stopping the active journal transaction handle) and return 0 (VFS retry) to let the generic write path retry the operation safely.

2026-07-22ext4: fix NOWAIT semantic violation in DAX extending writesBaokun Li1-0/+5
When a DAX write starts before EOF but extends past i_disksize, ext4_write_checks() skips the IOCB_NOWAIT check because iocb->ki_pos <= old_size. However, ext4_dax_write_iter() later calls ext4_journal_start() to prepare for inode extension, which can sleep waiting for journal space or transaction commit. This violates NOWAIT semantics and can stall asynchronous I/O frameworks like io_uring that rely on non-blocking behavior. Fix this by checking IOCB_NOWAIT before calling ext4_journal_start() in the extending write path. If NOWAIT is set and extension is needed, return -EAGAIN so the caller can retry in blocking context. Example scenario: - File: i_size = 1000, i_disksize = 1000 - DAX NOWAIT write: offset = 500, count = 2000 - ext4_write_checks(): ki_pos (500) <= old_size (1000), skip NOWAIT check - ext4_dax_write_iter(): offset + count (2500) > i_disksize (1000) - ext4_journal_start() → may sleep → violates NOWAIT Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org> Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260618125735.4156639-1-libaokun@linux.alibaba.com?part=5 Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Baokun Li <libaokun@linux.alibaba.com> Reviewed-by: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@huawei.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260629113827.4074335-7-libaokun@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

2026-07-22ext4: base unaligned DIO lock decision on partial block zeroingBaokun Li1-35/+73
For unaligned DIO writes, the previous ext4_overwrite_io() required the entire range to fall within a single written extent. This was overly conservative: the DIO layer only performs partial block zeroing for the head and tail blocks when they are partially covered by the write. Middle blocks that are fully covered are written as whole blocks without any zeroing, so they are safe regardless of extent state. Therefore exclusive lock is only required when partial block zeroing will actually happen: - The head partial block (if any) lands on a hole or unwritten extent. - The tail partial block (if any) lands on a hole or unwritten extent. Middle full-cover blocks can be in any state (hole, unwritten, or written) - block allocation under shared lock is safe per the previous patch's analysis (inode_dio_begin + i_data_sem protection). Replace ext4_overwrite_io() with ext4_dio_needs_zeroing(), which directly answers the question driving the lock decision. It uses at most two ext4_map_blocks() calls: one for the head partial block (also catching the case where it spans through the tail), and one for the tail partial block if not already covered. This enables shared lock for previously-rejected scenarios such as: - Unaligned write spanning written extent + mid-range hole + written extent at the tail. - Unaligned write where the partial blocks land on written extents but the middle has unwritten extents. Performance: Hardware: /dev/sda (rotational disk, ~1 GB/s sustained write) Filesystem: ext4 default mkfs Unaligned DIO writes (14336 bytes at +512 within each 16K stripe). Each stripe is laid out as [written][unwritten][unwritten][written], so the head and tail partial blocks land on written extents but the middle is unwritten. Metric: IOPS.

2026-07-22ext4: skip overwrite check for aligned non-extending DIO writesBaokun Li1-22/+30
Currently, ext4_dio_write_checks() calls ext4_overwrite_io() to determine if a write is a pure overwrite, and upgrades to exclusive i_rwsem if not. However, ext4_overwrite_io() uses a single ext4_map_blocks() call which only returns the first contiguous extent of the same type. A write spanning multiple pre-allocated extents (e.g. written + unwritten, or two physically discontiguous written extents) produces a false negative, forcing an unnecessary exclusive lock upgrade. After commit 5d87c7fca2c1 ("ext4: avoid starting handle when dio writing an unwritten extent") and commit 012924f0eeef ("ext4: remove useless ext4_iomap_overwrite_ops"), ext4_iomap_begin()'s fast path accepts both EXT4_MAP_MAPPED and EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN without starting a journal transaction. The iomap iteration naturally handles multi-extent ranges: each call returns the mapping for the current segment, and unwritten-to-written conversion is deferred to ext4_dio_write_end_io(). This means the common case of mixed written/unwritten extents never reaches ext4_iomap_alloc() at all. Even for the less common case where the range contains a hole and ext4_iomap_alloc() is needed, exclusive i_rwsem is still unnecessary for aligned non-extending writes: - truncate/punch_hole are kept out: they require exclusive i_rwsem (blocked by our shared lock during allocation), and inode_dio_begin() keeps their inode_dio_wait() blocked until in-flight bios complete. - i_data_sem write-lock inside ext4_map_blocks() serializes concurrent extent tree modifications (parallel writers to the same hole). - The journal handle is per-thread and does not require i_rwsem exclusion. - i_disksize and orphan list are not involved in non-extending writes. Skip the ext4_overwrite_io() check entirely for aligned writes by initializing overwrite to true and only calling ext4_overwrite_io() for unaligned writes. Unaligned writes still need the extent state check because concurrent partial block zeroing in the DIO layer requires exclusive serialization unless the range is a pure written-extent overwrite. Performance: Hardware: /dev/sda (rotational disk, ~1 GB/s sustained write) Filesystem: ext4 default mkfs Aligned 8K DIO writes spanning written+unwritten extent boundaries. Each thread writes its own 1G region sequentially; the file is rebuilt between runs so every block is written exactly once. Metric: IOPS.

2026-07-22ext4: drain in-flight DIO before buffered write fallbackBaokun Li1-0/+7
generic/746 started failing intermittently on ext3 (no-extent inodes). The test triggers 'Page cache invalidation failure on direct I/O' warnings and subsequent fsync returns -EIO. Adding a 50ms delay between ext4_buffered_write_iter() and filemap_write_and_wait_range() in ext4_dio_write_iter() makes the race almost always reproducible. On no-extent inodes, DIO writes to holes cannot use unwritten extents, so ext4_iomap_alloc() leaves m_flags=0 and ext4_map_blocks() returns 0. The iomap layer then returns -ENOTBLK, causing fallback to buffered I/O. The fallback path in ext4_dio_write_iter() calls ext4_buffered_write_iter() which dirties pages, then does flush and invalidate. However, there's an unprotected window between ext4_buffered_write_iter() returning (with inode lock released) and the subsequent flush+invalidate. Concurrent async DIO completions from other threads can run kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write() during this window. If pages have been re-dirtied, post-invalidation finds dirty pages and triggers the warning, setting -EIO in the error sequence. Consider a file with two 4k extents: [hole][written]. Thread A does DIO to the written extent, while thread B does DIO spanning both: kworker A (4k DIO, allocated block) kworker B (8k DIO, fallback) ----------------------------------- ---------------------------- inode_lock_shared() inode_lock_shared() iomap_dio_rw(): iomap_dio_rw(): kiocb_invalidate_pages -> clean iomap_begin -> -ENOTBLK submit_bio (async) dio->size = 0 inode_unlock_shared() inode_unlock_shared() [bio pending in block layer] /* fallback: lock released */ ext4_buffered_write_iter() inode_lock(exclusive) generic_perform_write() -> dirty pages [0, 8k] inode_unlock(exclusive) /* pages dirty, no lock */ [bio completes] filemap_write_and_wait_range() iomap_dio_complete() -> flush dirty pages kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write() invalidate_mapping_pages() invalidate_inode_pages2_range() -> finds dirty page! -> dio_warn_stale_pagecache() -> errseq_set(-EIO) This issue can be triggered through normal I/O paths, not just intentionally overlapping DIO writes from userspace. For example, generic/746 uses a loop device where multiple kworkers issue concurrent I/O to the backing file. Additionally, when block_size < folio_size, non-overlapping DIO writes that share a large folio can also trigger the race. Add inode_dio_wait() in ext4_buffered_write_iter() before ext4_write_checks() to drain all in-flight DIO. This ensures that all DIO clears existing pages before submitting IO (via kiocb_invalidate_pages()), all BIO waits for all DIO to complete (via inode_dio_wait()), and ext4_write_checks() observes the inode size after all completed DIO so that ext4_block_zero_eof() does not race with in-flight DIO, thus eliminating the race.

Allocate ->rw_image with vzalloc() to avoid permissions dance when EXECMEM_BPF will be backed by ROX caches. Using vzalloc() rather than vmalloc() ensures that the memory that bpf_dispatcher_update() unconditionally copies into the executable buffer is zeroed, which is not ideal but still better than random memory returned by the existing bpf_jit_alloc_exec() or plain vmalloc(). Switching from bpf_jit_alloc_exec() to vzalloc() also saves a bit of space in the more scarce module address space.

In data=journal mode, the writeback thread can hit the WARN_ON_ONCE(sb_rdonly(sb)) in ext4_journal_check_start() while the superblock is being remounted read-only during reboot: Workqueue: writeback wb_workfn (flush-253:0) RIP: 0010:ext4_journal_check_start+0x8b/0xd0 Call Trace: __ext4_journal_start_sb+0x3c/0x1e0 mpage_prepare_extent_to_map+0x4af/0x580 ext4_do_writepages+0x3c0/0x1080 ext4_writepages+0xc8/0x1a0 do_writepages+0xc4/0x180 __writeback_single_inode+0x45/0x2f0 writeback_sb_inodes+0x26b/0x5d0 __writeback_inodes_wb+0x54/0x100 wb_writeback+0x1ac/0x320 wb_workfn+0x394/0x470 And followed by the warning: EXT4-fs warning (device vda1): ext4_evict_inode:195: inode #6263: comm (sd-umount): data will be lost This issue is not reproduced every time, but frequently. The reproduction step is to create a VM with 8 CPUs, 16G memory and setup data=journal: sudo tune2fs -o journal_data /dev/vda1 Run fio: rm -f fiotest fio --name=fiotest --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --runtime=6 --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=256 --numjobs=8 --filename=fiotest --filesize=30G --group_reporting Reboot the VM, and check the console output from: virsh console testvm But there is no dirty inode, folio_clear_dirty_for_io clears PG_dirty but leaves tags PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE set which are only cleared by __folio_start_writeback. In data=journal mode, jbd2 checkpoints the journalled data to its final location and clears its own dirty flag without touching folio PG_dirty or xarray dirty flags. The commit f4a2b42e7891 ("ext4: fix stale xarray tags after writeback") fixes when PG_dirty is still set but there is no dirty page. Another case is PG_dirty is cleared, but PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE is still set. In this case, writeback thread checks clean folio and skips it in mpage_prepare_extent_to_map: if (!folio_test_dirty(folio) || ... folio_unlcok(folio); continue And never reaches ext4_bio_write_folio where the commit f4a2b42e7891 clears the stale xarray tags. Print debug logs after the filesystem is remounted read-only: writepages RDONLY nrpages=2048 dirtytag=1 wbtag=0 towrite=1 sync=0 And all folios are actually clean: folio idx=3 dirty=0 wb=0 checked=0 dirtybuf=0 jbddirty=0 mapped=1 ... We need to clear the xarray stale tags for such clean folios by cycling them through writeback in the skip path, the same way f4a2b42e7891 does in ext4_bio_write_folio.

2026-07-22phy: zynqmp: keep SERDES scrambler and 8b/10b enabled for USBNava kishore Manne1-10/+29
USB Gen1 requires scrambling and 8b/10b encoding to be performed in the physical layer. Do not bypass PHY-side scrambler or encoder/decoder for USB operation, as mandated by the USB 3.x specification. Scrambler and 8b/10b bypass remain restricted to SATA and SGMII modes, where encoding is handled in the controller.

xpsgtr_bypass_scrambler_8b10b() used xpsgtr_write_phy() which performs a full register write, silently clearing any bits beyond the intended bypass control fields. Switch to xpsgtr_clr_set_phy() with clr=mask, set=mask to set only the bypass bits while preserving the remaining bits in each register.

The L0_TX_DIG_61 register bit 2 is a reserved read-only field. The previous mask value 0x0f incorrectly included bit 2, causing unintended writes to a reserved bit on every scrambler bypass operation. Correct the mask to (BIT(3) | GENMASK(1, 0)) to cover only the valid scramble bypass control bits.

2026-07-22ext4: fix ABBA deadlock in ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find()Aditya Prakash Srivastava3-5/+35
Syzbot/stress-ng reported an ABBA deadlock in ext4 when exercising concurrent xattr workloads (using the ea_inode mount/format option). The deadlock occurs between the running transaction and the eviction thread: - Task 1 (stress-ng): Holds a reference to a shared mbcache_entry (ce) and calls ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() -> ext4_iget() to retrieve the corresponding EA inode. Since the EA inode is currently being evicted, ext4_iget() blocks in __wait_on_freeing_inode() waiting for eviction to complete. - Task 2 (eviction thread): Currently evicting the same EA inode in ext4_evict_ea_inode(). It calls mb_cache_entry_wait_unused(oe) which blocks waiting for Task 1 to release the reference to the mbcache_entry. To break this deadlock, implement a new ext4_iget() configuration flag named EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT. When set, perform a non-blocking lookup of the inode via VFS's find_inode_nowait() API. If the inode is currently being evicted (marked with I_FREEING or I_WILL_FREE) or created (I_CREATING), or if it is not present in the VFS inode cache (cache miss), simply skip it (returning -ENOENT) rather than waiting for eviction/creation to complete, breaking the ABBA cycle. Since we return -ENOENT immediately on a cache miss, we never attempt to allocate a new inode or call iget_locked(), completely eliminating any TOCTOU race window. If the returned inode is I_NEW, wait for its initialization to clear via wait_on_new_inode(). If initialization fails and the inode is unhashed during wait_on_new_inode() waking up (e.g., due to an I/O read error in another thread), safely drop the reference and return -ENOENT. This unhashed check is executed unconditionally on all cache-hit pathways to properly handle concurrent initialization failures. Finally, standard validation checks (including is_bad_inode, EXT4_EA_INODE_FL, file_acl, and xattr flags) are executed as normal inside check_igot_inode() to fully guarantee VFS-layer safety. In ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find(), invoke ext4_iget() with the new EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT flag to perform the non-blocking cache search.
