One actual code fix in "Fix unlocked pt_excl in scoutfs_readahead". The rest is pure compat.

egrep is no longer in el10, so replace it with `grep -E` everywhere.

The logic only accounted for single-digit versions. With el10, that
breaks.

The new format in el10 has non-hex output, separated by a comma. Add the
additional filter string so this works as expected.

This is somewhat cumbersome, we want to see the error message, but the
format changes enough to make this messy. We opt to change the golden to
the new format, which only shows one of the arguments in its error
output: the thing that cannot be overwritten. We then add a filter that
rewrites the old output format with sed patterns to be exactly like the
new format, so this will work everywhere again, without changing or
adding filters to obscure error messages.

In RHEL10, the grep version is bumped from 3.6 to 3.11, and grep
no longer recognizes the \Z character anymore.

We have 2 solutions: We can either choose to use `grep -P` to
continue using it, or, alternatively, we can choose a different
`null` match to have an effectively empty exclude list.

The latter seems easy enough: By default, we can just exclude
empty lines ("^$") obtaining the exact same behavior as before.

In v6.1-rc5-2-ge9a688bcb193, get_random_u32_below() becomes available and
can start replacing prandom_bytes_max(). Switch to it where we can.

get_random_bytes() has been available since el7, so also replace
prandom_bytes() where we're using it.

In v6.6-rc5-1-g077c212f0344, one can no longer directly access the
inode m_time and a_time etc. We have to go through these static inline
functions to get to them. The compat is matched closely to mimic the
new functions.

Further back, ctime accessors were added in v6.5-rc1-7-g9b6304c1d537,
and need to be applied as well.

In v6.12-rc1-3-g5f60d5f6bbc1, asm/unaligned.h only included
asm-generic/unaligned.h and that was cleaned up from architecture
specific things. Everyone should now include linux/unaligned.h and the
former include was removed.

A quick peek at server.c shows that while included, it no longer uses
any function from this header at all, so it can just be dropped.

Instead of defining a struct that ends with a flex array member with
`val[0]`, the compiler now balks at this since technically, the spec
considers this unsanitary. As a result however, we can't memcpy to
`struct->val` since that's a pointer and now we're writing something of
a different length (u8's in our case) into something that's of pointer
size. So there we have to do the opposite, and memcpy to
&struct->val[0].

v6.9-rc4-29-g203c1ce0bb06 removes bd_inode. The canonical replacement is
bd_mapping->host, where applicable. We have one use where we directly
need the mapping instead of the inode, as well.

Signed-off-by: Auke Kok <auke.kok@versity.com>
In v6.8-9146-gc759e609030c, the second argument for __assign_str() was
removed, as the second parameter is already derived from the __string()
definition and no longer needed. We have to do a little digging in
headers here to find the definition.

Note the missing `;` at a few places... it has to be added now.

Signed-off-by: Auke Kok <auke.kok@versity.com>
The return type always has been int, so, we just need to add return
value checking and do something with it. We could return -ENOMEM here as
well, either way it'll fall all the way through no matter what.

This is since v6.4-rc2-100-g83f2caaaf9cb.

Yet another major shrinker API evolution in v6.6-rc4-53-gc42d50aefd17.
The struct shrinker now has to be dynamically allocated. This is
purposely a backwards incompatible break.

Collapse the previous KC_ALLOC_SHRINKER, KC_INIT_SHRINKER_FUNCS,
and KC_REGISTER_SHRINKER macros into a single KC_SETUP_SHRINKER
macro. The three operations have to happen in different orders on
different kernel APIs (the name is needed at alloc time on el10
and at register time on KC_SHRINKER_NAME kernels), so coupling
them keeps the ordering correct per kernel.

Add KC_SHRINKER_IS_NULL so callers can detect shrinker_alloc()
failure on el10 and return -ENOMEM. The macro compiles to a
constant 0 on older kernels where the shrinker is an embedded
struct that cannot fail allocation.

Since ~v6.5-rc1-95-g0d72b92883c6, generic_fillattr() asks us to pass
through the request_mask from the caller. This allows it to only
request a subset.

In v6.9-rc4-8-gead083aeeed9, this now takes a struct file argument,
adding to the ifdef salad we've got going on here.

Since v5.1-rc3-29-gaa30f47cf666, and in el9, there are changes to reduce
the amount of boilerplate code needed to hook up lots of attribute files
using a .default_groups member. In el10, this is the required method as
.default_attrs has been removed. This touches every sysfs part that we
have.

This caller of scoutfs_get_block is now actively used in el10 and
the WARN_ON_ONCE(!lock) in data.c:567 triggers. Add the
scoutfs_per_task_add_excl/del calls in scoutfs_readpage,
scoutfs_readpages, and scoutfs_readahead to register the cluster
lock for scoutfs_get_block_read.

Add unconditionally rather than guarded by the add_excl return,
since these methods can be reached reentrantly from a top-level
read that already added the entry. Skipping the I/O in that case
left BUG_ON(!list_empty(pages)) in scoutfs_readpages and the page
locked in scoutfs_readpage.

Move scoutfs_per_task_del before scoutfs_unlock to match the
ordering used by file.c read/write paths.

This works together with the dropped block_write_full_page(), allowing
us to drop the _writepage() method as long as we implement
_writepages(). Since v5.19-rc3-395-g67235182a41c. This used to be the
.migratepage() method.

Signed-off-by: Auke Kok <auke.kok@versity.com>
Due to folios, the kernel will call scoutfs_writepages() and this
becomes unused. It could be ported but the helper function to call isn't
exported anymore.

Based on my reading of the gfs2 driver, it appears it's likely the safer
approach to take copy_splice_read instead of filemap_splice_read as it
may potentially lead to cluster deadlocks.

Since v4.6-rc3-29-g6192269444eb there has been a special readdir VFS
method that can be called for the same directory multiple times in
parallel, without any additional VFS locking. The VFS has provided a
WRAP_DIR_ITER() macro to re-wrap the method with extra locking, in case
the method wasn't safe for this.

With el10, the old .readdir method is now gone, and we have no choice
but to either use the wrapper, or just hook up our readdir() method to
the .iterate_shared op.

From what I can see, our implementation is safe to do this.

In el10, we don't need compat for list_lru_walk, as was intended
in 8b6418f. However, the actual redefine from kc_list_lru_walk to
list_lru_walk was omitted. It wasn't needed until el10. Add it now.

Adds compat handlers for block_write_begin and block_write_end to take
a folio argument instead of page, as this is needed since v6.11-rc1-54-g9f04609f74ec.

To avoid having two duplicate page_mkwrite functions there's now a
complete page/folio ifdef split here to make it handle either. This is
ugly but it's the most straightforward solution here and avoids more
obscure macros.

Rebased. The rebase means we pull in the from_timer change from main that makes this series also support 10.2
