From 3cd1548a278c7d6a9bdef1f1866e7cf66bfd3518 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Yuan Date: Sat, 8 Nov 2025 19:09:47 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] shmem: fix tmpfs reconfiguration (remount) when noswap is set In systemd we're trying to switch the internal credentials setup logic to new mount API [1], and I noticed fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE) consistently fails on tmpfs with noswap option. This can be trivially reproduced with the following: ``` int fs_fd = fsopen("tmpfs", 0); fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "noswap", NULL, 0); fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0); fsmount(fs_fd, 0, 0); fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE, NULL, NULL, 0); <------ EINVAL ``` After some digging the culprit is shmem_reconfigure() rejecting !(ctx->seen & SHMEM_SEEN_NOSWAP) && sbinfo->noswap, which is bogus as ctx->seen serves as a mask for whether certain options are touched at all. On top of that, noswap option doesn't use fsparam_flag_no, hence it's not really possible to "reenable" swap to begin with. Drop the check and redundant SHMEM_SEEN_NOSWAP flag.
