Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] io_uring: add fremovexattr and flistxattr support
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2026 08:54:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260721085458.2716-1-aditya.ansh182@gmail.com> (raw)

This series completes io_uring's FD-based xattr operations by adding
support for:
- IORING_OP_FREMOVEXATTR
- IORING_OP_FLISTXATTR

This allows asynchronous xattr removal and listing. Support is restricted
to FD-based operations on registered files to avoid path lookup overhead.

Corresponding test suite modifications have been integrated into the
official liburing test suite (test/xattr.c) and verified to pass
successfully. A corresponding liburing patch implementing these prep
helpers, sanitizers, and test cases is following this kernel series.

- Patch 1 makes the necessary VFS-layer list/remove helpers non-static
  and declares them in fs/internal.h.
- Patch 2 implements the io_uring operational support (opcodes, opdefs,
  preparation, and issue handlers) and invokes these exposed helpers.

Changes since v1:
- Omit path-based opcodes to prioritize optimal FD-based variants.
- Limit exported VFS helpers to only file_listxattr and file_removexattr.
- Rewrite standalone test program into a standard liburing testcase.
