5eff57fa9f ("io_uring/uring_cmd: defer SQE copying until it's needed")
moved the unconditional memcpy() of the uring_cmd SQE to async_data
to 2 cases when the request goes async:
- If REQ_F_FORCE_ASYNC is set to force the initial issue to go async
- If ->uring_cmd() returns -EAGAIN in the initial non-blocking issue
Unlike the REQ_F_FORCE_ASYNC case, in the EAGAIN case, io_uring_cmd()
copies the SQE to async_data but neglects to update the io_uring_cmd's
sqe field to point to async_data. As a result, sqe still points to the
slot in the userspace-mapped SQ. At the end of io_submit_sqes(), the
kernel advances the SQ head index, allowing userspace to reuse the slot
for a new SQE. If userspace reuses the slot before the io_uring worker
reissues the original SQE, the io_uring_cmd's SQE will be corrupted.
Introduce a helper io_uring_cmd_cache_sqes() to copy the original SQE to
the io_uring_cmd's async_data and point sqe there. Use it for both the
REQ_F_FORCE_ASYNC and EAGAIN cases. This ensures the uring_cmd doesn't
read from the SQ slot after it has been returned to userspace.

eaf72f7b41 ("io_uring/uring_cmd: cleanup struct io_uring_cmd_data
layout") removed most of the places assuming struct io_uring_cmd_data
has sqes as its first field. However, the EAGAIN case in io_uring_cmd()
still compares ioucmd->sqe to the struct io_uring_cmd_data pointer using
a void * cast. Since fa3595523d ("io_uring: get rid of alloc cache
init_once handling"), sqes is no longer io_uring_cmd_data's first field.
As a result, the pointers will always compare unequal and memcpy() may
be called with the same source and destination.
Replace the incorrect void * cast with the address of the sqes field.

struct io_tw_state is managed by core io_uring, and opcode handling code
must never try to cheat and create their own instances, it's plain
incorrect.
io_waitid_complete() attempts exactly that outside of the task work
context, and even though the ring is locked, there would be no one to
reap the requests from the defer completion list. It only works now
because luckily it's called before io_uring_try_cancel_uring_cmd(),
which flushes completions.

If a socket is shutdown before the connection completes, POLLERR is set
in the poll mask. However, connect ignores this as it doesn't know, and
attempts the connection again. This may lead to a bogus -ETIMEDOUT
result, where it should have noticed the POLLERR and just returned
-ECONNRESET instead.
Have the poll logic check for whether or not POLLERR is set in the mask,
and if so, mark the request as failed. Then connect can appropriately
fail the request rather than retry it.

Test setups (with KASAN) will avoid !KASAN sections, and so it's not
testing paths that would be exercised otherwise. That's bad as to be
sure that your code works you now have to specifically test both KASAN
and !KASAN configs.
Remove !CONFIG_KASAN guards from io_netmsg_cache_free() and
io_rw_cache_free(). The free functions should always be getting valid
entries, and even though for KASAN iovecs should already be cleared,
that's better than skipping the chunks completely.

A previous commit changed all of the migration from the old to the new
ring for resizing to use READ/WRITE_ONCE. However, ->sq_flags is an
atomic_t, and while most archs won't complain on this, some will indeed
flag this:
io_uring/register.c:554:9: sparse: sparse: cast to non-scalar
io_uring/register.c:554:9: sparse: sparse: cast from non-scalar
Just use atomic_set/atomic_read for handling this case.

init_once is called when an object doesn't come from the cache, and
hence needs initial clearing of certain members. While the whole
struct could get cleared by memset() in that case, a few of the cache
members are large enough that this may cause unnecessary overhead if
the caches used aren't large enough to satisfy the workload. For those
cases, some churn of kmalloc+kfree is to be expected.
Ensure that the 3 users that need clearing put the members they need
cleared at the start of the struct, and wrap the rest of the struct in
a struct group so the offset is known.
While at it, improve the interaction with KASAN such that when/if
KASAN writes to members inside the struct that should be retained over
caching, it won't trip over itself. For rw and net, the retaining of
the iovec over caching is disabled if KASAN is enabled. A helper will
free and clear those members in that case.

Lots of scalability work, another big on disk format change. On disk
format version goes from 1.13 to 1.20.
Like 6.11, this is another big and expensive automatic/required on disk
format upgrade. This is planned to be the last big on disk format
upgrade before the experimental label comes off. There will be one more
minor on disk format update for a few things that couldn't make this
release.
Headline improvements:
- Fix mount time regression that some users encountered post the 6.11
disk accounting rewrite.
Accounting keys were encoded little endian (typetag in the low bits) -
which didn't anticipate adding accounting keys for every inode, which
aren't stored in memory and we don't want to scan at mount time.
- fsck time on large filesystems is improved by multiple orders of
magnitude. Previously, 100TB was about the practical max filesystem
size, where users were reporting fsck times of a day+. With the new
changes (which nearly eliminate backpointers fsck overhead), we fsck'd
a filesystem with 10PB of data in 1.5 hours.
The problematic fsck passes were walking every extent and checking for
missing backpointers, and walking every backpointer to check for
dangling backpointers. As we've been adding more and more runtime self
healing there was no reason to keep around the backpointers -> extents
pass; dangling backpointers are just deleted, and we can do that when
using them - thus, backpointers -> extents is now only run in debug
mode.
extents -> backpointers does need to exist, since missing backpointers
would mean we can't find data to move it (for e.g. copygc, device
evacuate, scrub). But the new on disk format version makes possible a
new strategy where we sum up backpointers within a bucket and check it
against the bucket sector counts, and then only scan for missing
backpointers if the counts are off (and then, only for specific
buckets).
Full list of on disk format changes:
- 1.14: backpointer_bucket_gen
Backpointers now have a field for the bucket generation number,
replacing the obsolete bucket_offset field. This is needed for the
new "sum up backpointers within a bucket" code, since backpointers use
the btree write buffer - meaning we will see stale reads, and this
runs online, with the filesystem in full rw mode.
- 1.15: disk_accounting_big_endian
As previously described, fix the endianness of accounting keys so that
accounting keys with the same typetag sort together, and accounting
read can skip types it's not interested in.
- 1.16: reflink_p_may_update_opts:
This version indicates that a new reflink pointer field is understood
and may be used; the field indicates whether the reflink pointer has
permissions to update IO path options (e.g. compression, replicas) may
be updated on the indirect extent it points to.
This completes the rebalance/reflink data path option handling from
the 6.13 pull request.
- 1.17: inode_depth
Add a new inode field, bi_depth, to accelerate the
check_directory_structure fsck path, which checks for loops in the
filesystem heirarchy.
check_inodes and check_dirents check connectivity, so
check_directory_structure only has to check for loops - by walking
back up to the root from every directory.
But a path can't be a loop if it has a counter that increases
monotonically from root to leaf - adding a depth counter means that we
can check for loops with only local (parent -> child) checks. We might
need to occasionally renumber the depth field in fsck if directories
have been moved around, but then future fsck runs will be much faster.
- 1.18: persistent_inode_cursors
Previously, the cursor used for inode allocation was only kept in
memory, which meant that users with large filesystems and lots of
files were reporting that the first create after mounting would take
awhile - since it had to scan from the start.
Inode allocation cursors are now persistent, and also include a
generation field (incremented on wraparound, which will only happen if
inode allocation is restricted to 32 bit inodes), so that we don't
have to leave inode_generation keys around after a delete.
The option for 32 bit inode numbers may now also be set on individual
directories, and non-32 bit inode allocations are disallowed from
allocating from the 32 bit part of the inode number space.
- 1.19: autofix_errors
Runtime self healing is now the default.o
- 1.20: directory size (from Hongbo)
directory i_size is now meaningful, and not 0.
Release notes from the previous 6.13 pull request:
- Self healing work:
Allocator and reflink now run the exact same check/repair code that
fsck does at runtime, where applicable.
The long term goal here is to remove inconsistent() errors (that cause
us to go emergency read only) by lifting fsck code up to normal
runtime paths; we should only go emergency read-only if we detect an
inconsistency that was due to a runtime bug - or truly catastrophic
damage (corrupted btree roots/interior nodes).
- Reflink repair no longer deletes reflink pointers: instead we flip an
error bit and log the error, and they can still be deleted by file
deletion. This means a temporary failure to find an indirect extent
(perhaps repaired later by btree node scan) won't result in
unnecessary data loss
- Improvements to rebalance data path option handling: we can now
correctly apply changed filesystem-level io path options to pending
rebalance work, and soon we'll be able to apply file-level io path
option changes to indirect extents.

"User visible changes, features:
- rebuilding of the free space tree at mount time is done in more
transactions, fix potential hangs when the transaction thread is
blocked due to large amount of block groups
- more read IO balancing strategies (experimental config), add two
new ways how to select a device for read if the profiles allow that
(all RAID1*), the current default selects the device by pid which
is good on average but less performant for single reader workloads
- select preferred device for all reads (namely for testing)
- round-robin, balance reads across devices relevant for the
requested IO range
- add encoded write ioctl support to io_uring (read was added in
6.12), basis for writing send stream using that instead of
syscalls, non-blocking mode is not yet implemented
- support FS_IOC_READ_VERITY_METADATA, applications can use the
metadata to do their own verification
- pass inode's i_write_hint to bios, for parity with other
filesystems, ioctls F_GET_RW_HINT/F_SET_RW_HINT
Core:
- in zoned mode: allow to directly reclaim a block group by simply
resetting it, then it can be reused and another block group does
not need to be allocated
- super block validation now also does more comprehensive sys array
validation, adding it to the points where superblock is validated
(post-read, pre-write)
- subpage mode fixes:
- fix double accounting of blocks due to some races
- improved or fixed error handling in a few cases (compression,
delalloc)

Pull vfs libfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This improves the stable directory offset behavior in various ways.
Stable offsets are needed so that NFS can reliably read directories on
filesystems such as tmpfs:
- Improve the end-of-directory detection
According to getdents(3), the d_off field in each returned
directory entry points to the next entry in the directory. The
d_off field in the last returned entry in the readdir buffer must
contain a valid offset value, but if it points to an actual
directory entry, then readdir/getdents can loop.
Introduce a specific fixed offset value that is placed in the d_off
field of the last entry in a directory. Some user space
applications assume that the EOD offset value is larger than the
offsets of real directory entries, so the largest valid offset
value is reserved for this purpose. This new value is never
allocated by simple_offset_add().
When ->iterate_dir() returns, getdents{64} inserts the ctx->pos
value into the d_off field of the last valid entry in the readdir
buffer. When it hits EOD, offset_readdir() sets ctx->pos to the EOD
offset value so the last entry is updated to point to the EOD
marker.
When trying to read the entry at the EOD offset, offset_readdir()
terminates immediately.
- Rely on d_children to iterate stable offset directories
Instead of using the mtree to emit entries in the order of their
offset values, use it only to map incoming ctx->pos to a starting
entry. Then use the directory's d_children list, which is already
maintained properly by the dcache, to find the next child to emit.
- Narrow the range of directory offset values returned by
simple_offset_add() to 3 .. (S32_MAX - 1) on all platforms. This
means the allocation behavior is identical on 32-bit systems,
64-bit systems, and 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels. The new
range still permits over 2 billion concurrent entries per
directory.
- Return ENOSPC when the directory offset range is exhausted. Hitting
this error is almost impossible though.
- Remove the simple_offset_empty() helper"

- Lockless mount namespace lookup
Currently we take the read lock when looking for a mount namespace to

just use a sequence counter to detect concurrent changes to the
rbtree
For walking the list of mount namespaces sequentially via nsfs we
keep a separate rcu list as rb_prev() and rb_next() aren't usable
safely with rcu. Currently there is no primitive for retrieving the
previous list member. To do this we need a new deletion primitive
that doesn't poison the prev pointer and a corresponding retrieval
helper

with querying mounts in a foreign mount namespace this is worth it.
Once libmount and systemd pick up this mechanism to list mounts in
foreign mount namespaces this will be used very frequently

Pull pid_max namespacing update from Christian Brauner:
"The pid_max sysctl is a global value. For a long time the default
value has been 65535 and during the pidfd dicussions Linus proposed to
bump pid_max by default. Based on this discussion systemd started
bumping pid_max to 2^22. So all new systems now run with a very high
pid_max limit with some distros having also backported that change.
The decision to bump pid_max is obviously correct. It just doesn't
make a lot of sense nowadays to enforce such a low pid number. There's
sufficient tooling to make selecting specific processes without typing
really large pid numbers available.
In any case, there are workloads that have expections about how large
pid numbers they accept. Either for historical reasons or
architectural reasons. One concreate example is the 32-bit version of
Android's bionic libc which requires pid numbers less than 65536.
There are workloads where it is run in a 32-bit container on a 64-bit
kernel. If the host has a pid_max value greater than 65535 the libc
will abort thread creation because of size assumptions of
pthread_mutex_t.
That's a fairly specific use-case however, in general specific
workloads that are moved into containers running on a host with a new
kernel and a new systemd can run into issues with large pid_max
values. Obviously making assumptions about the size of the allocated
pid is suboptimal but we have userspace that does it.
Of course, giving containers the ability to restrict the number of
processes in their respective pid namespace indepent of the global
limit through pid_max is something desirable in itself and comes in
handy in general.
Independent of motivating use-cases the existence of pid namespaces
makes this also a good semantical extension and there have been prior
proposals pushing in a similar direction. The trick here is to
minimize the risk of regressions which I think is doable. The fact
that pid namespaces are hierarchical will help us here.
What we mostly care about is that when the host sets a low pid_max
limit, say (crazy number) 100 that no descendant pid namespace can
allocate a higher pid number in its namespace. Since pid allocation is
hierarchial this can be ensured by checking each pid allocation
against the pid namespace's pid_max limit. This means if the
allocation in the descendant pid namespace succeeds, the ancestor pid
namespace can reject it. If the ancestor pid namespace has a higher
limit than the descendant pid namespace the descendant pid namespace
will reject the pid allocation. The ancestor pid namespace will
obviously not care about this.
All in all this means pid_max continues to enforce a system wide limit
on the number of processes but allows pid namespaces sufficient leeway
in handling workloads with assumptions about pid values and allows
containers to restrict the number of processes in a pid namespace
through the pid_max interface"

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
- Rework inode number allocation
Recently we received a patchset that aims to enable file handle
encoding and decoding via name_to_handle_at(2) and
open_by_handle_at(2).
A crucical step in the patch series is how to go from inode number to
struct pid without leaking information into unprivileged contexts.
The issue is that in order to find a struct pid the pid number in the
initial pid namespace must be encoded into the file handle via
name_to_handle_at(2).
This can be used by containers using a separate pid namespace to
learn what the pid number of a given process in the initial pid
namespace is. While this is a weak information leak it could be used
in various exploits and in general is an ugly wart in the design.
To solve this problem a new way is needed to lookup a struct pid
based on the inode number allocated for that struct pid. The other
part is to remove the custom inode number allocation on 32bit systems
that is also an ugly wart that should go away.
Allocate unique identifiers for struct pid by simply incrementing a
64 bit counter and insert each struct pid into the rbtree so it can
be looked up to decode file handles avoiding to leak actual pids
across pid namespaces in file handles.
On both 64 bit and 32 bit the same 64 bit identifier is used to
lookup struct pid in the rbtree. On 64 bit the unique identifier for
struct pid simply becomes the inode number. Comparing two pidfds
continues to be as simple as comparing inode numbers.
On 32 bit the 64 bit number assigned to struct pid is split into two
32 bit numbers. The lower 32 bits are used as the inode number and
the upper 32 bits are used as the inode generation number. Whenever a
wraparound happens on 32 bit the 64 bit number will be incremented by
2 so inode numbering starts at 2 again.
When a wraparound happens on 32 bit multiple pidfds with the same
inode number are likely to exist. This isn't a problem since before
pidfs pidfds used the anonymous inode meaning all pidfds had the same
inode number. On 32 bit sserspace can thus reconstruct the 64 bit
identifier by retrieving both the inode number and the inode
generation number to compare, or use file handles. This gives the
same guarantees on both 32 bit and 64 bit.
- Implement file handle support
This is based on custom export operation methods which allows pidfs
to implement permission checking and opening of pidfs file handles
cleanly without hacking around in the core file handle code too much.
- Support bind-mounts
Allow bind-mounting pidfds. Similar to nsfs let's allow bind-mounts
for pidfds. This allows pidfds to be safely recovered and checked for
process recycling.
Instead of checking d_ops for both nsfs and pidfs we could in a
follow-up patch add a flag argument to struct dentry_operations that
functions similar to file_operations->fop_flags.

If a file system supports uncached buffered IO, it may set
FOP_DONTCACHE and enable support for RWF_DONTCACHE.
If RWF_DONTCACHE is attempted without the file system supporting
it, it'll get errored with -EOPNOTSUPP
- Enable VBOXGUEST and VBOXSF_FS on ARM64
Now that VirtualBox is able to run as a host on arm64 (e.g. the

Pull /proc/kcore updates from Christian Brauner:
"The performance of /proc/kcore reads has been showing up as a
bottleneck for the drgn debugger. drgn scripts often spend ~25% of
their time in the kernel reading from /proc/kcore.
A lot of this overhead comes from silly inefficiencies. This pull
request contains fixes for the low-hanging fruit. The fixes are all
fairly small and straightforward.
The result is a 25% improvement in read latency in micro-benchmarks
(from ~235 nanoseconds to ~175) and a 15% improvement in execution
time for real-world drgn scripts:
- Make /proc/kcore entry permanent
- Avoid walking the list on every read
- Use percpu_rw_semaphore for kclist_lock
- Make Omar Sandoval the official maintainer for /proc/kcore"

Pull vfs netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains read performance improvements and support for monolithic
single-blob objects that have to be read/written as such (e.g. AFS
directory contents). The implementation of the two parts is interwoven
as each makes the other possible.
- Read performance improvements
The read performance improvements are intended to speed up some
loss of performance detected in cifs and to a lesser extend in afs.
The problem is that we queue too many work items during the
collection of read results: each individual subrequest is collected
by its own work item, and then they have to interact with each
other when a series of subrequests don't exactly align with the
pattern of folios that are being read by the overall request.
Whilst the processing of the pages covered by individual
subrequests as they complete potentially allows folios to be woken
in parallel and with minimum delay, it can shuffle wakeups for
sequential reads out of order - and that is the most common I/O
pattern.
The final assessment and cleanup of an operation is then held up
until the last I/O completes - and for a synchronous sequential
operation, this means the bouncing around of work items just adds
latency.
Two changes have been made to make this work:
(1) All collection is now done in a single "work item" that works
progressively through the subrequests as they complete (and
also dispatches retries as necessary).
(2) For readahead and AIO, this work item be done on a workqueue
and can run in parallel with the ultimate consumer of the data;
for synchronous direct or unbuffered reads, the collection is
run in the application thread and not offloaded.
Functions such as smb2_readv_callback() then just tell netfslib
that the subrequest has terminated; netfslib does a minimal bit of
processing on the spot - stat counting and tracing mostly - and
then queues/wakes up the worker. This simplifies the logic as the
collector just walks sequentially through the subrequests as they
complete and walks through the folios, if buffered, unlocking them
as it goes. It also keeps to a minimum the amount of latency
injected into the filesystem's low-level I/O handling
The way netfs supports filesystems using the deprecated
PG_private_2 flag is changed: folios are flagged and added to a
write request as they complete and that takes care of scheduling
the writes to the cache. The originating read request can then just
unlock the pages whatever happens.
- Single-blob object support
Single-blob objects are files for which the content of the file
must be read from or written to the server in a single operation
because reading them in parts may yield inconsistent results. AFS
directories are an example of this as there exists the possibility
that the contents are generated on the fly and would differ between
reads or might change due to third party interference.
Such objects will be written to and retrieved from the cache if one
is present, though we allow/may need to propose multiple
subrequests to do so. The important part is that read from/write to
the *server* is monolithic.
Single blob reading is, for the moment, fully synchronous and does
result collection in the application thread and, also for the
moment, the API is supplied the buffer in the form of a folio_queue
chain rather than using the pagecache.
- Related afs changes
This series makes a number of changes to the kafs filesystem,
primarily in the area of directory handling:
- AFS's FetchData RPC reply processing is made partially
asynchronous which allows the netfs_io_request's outstanding
operation counter to be removed as part of reducing the
collection to a single work item.
- Directory and symlink reading are plumbed through netfslib using
the single-blob object API and are now cacheable with fscache.
This also allows the afs_read struct to be eliminated and
netfs_io_subrequest to be used directly instead.
- Directory and symlink content are now stored in a folio_queue
buffer rather than in the pagecache. This means we don't require
the RCU read lock and xarray iteration to access it, and folios
won't randomly disappear under us because the VM wants them
back.
- The vnode operation lock is changed from a mutex struct to a
private lock implementation. The problem is that the lock now
needs to be dropped in a separate thread and mutexes don't
permit that.
- When a new directory or symlink is created, we now initialise it
locally and mark it valid rather than downloading it (we know
what it's likely to look like).
- We now use the in-directory hashtable to reduce the number of
entries we need to scan when doing a lookup. The edit routines
have to maintain the hash chains.
- Cancellation (e.g. by signal) of an async call after the
rxrpc_call has been set up is now offloaded to the worker thread
as there will be a notification from rxrpc upon completion. This
avoids a double cleanup.
- A "rolling buffer" implementation is created to abstract out the
two separate folio_queue chaining implementations I had (one for
read and one for write).
- Functions are provided to create/extend a buffer in a folio_queue
chain and tear it down again.
This is used to handle AFS directories, but could also be used to
create bounce buffers for content crypto and transport crypto.
- The was_async argument is dropped from netfs_read_subreq_terminated()
Instead we wake the read collection work item by either queuing it
or waking up the app thread.
- We don't need to use BH-excluding locks when communicating between
the issuing thread and the collection thread as neither of them now
run in BH context.
- Also included are a number of new tracepoints; a split of the
netfslib write collection code to put retrying into its own file
(it gets more complicated with content encryption).
- There are also some minor fixes AFS included, including fixing the
AFS directory format struct layout, reducing some directory
over-invalidation and making afs_mkdir() translate EEXIST to
ENOTEMPY (which is not available on all systems the servers
support).
- Finally, there's a patch to try and detect entry into the folio
unlock function with no folio_queue structs in the buffer (which
isn't allowed in the cases that can get there).
This is a debugging patch, but should be minimal overhead"

This was a suggestion by David Laight, and while I was slightly worried
that some micro-architecture would predict cmov like a conditional
branch, there is little reason to actually believe any core would be
that broken.
Intel documents that their existing cores treat CMOVcc as a data
dependency that will constrain speculation in their "Speculative
Execution Side Channel Mitigations" whitepaper:
"Other instructions such as CMOVcc, AND, ADC, SBB and SETcc can also
be used to prevent bounds check bypass by constraining speculative
execution on current family 6 processors (Intel® Core™, Intel® Atom™,
Intel® Xeon® and Intel® Xeon Phi™ processors)"
and while that leaves the future uarch issues open, that's certainly
true of our traditional SBB usage too.
Any core that predicts CMOV will be unusable for various crypto
algorithms that need data-independent timing stability, so let's just
treat CMOV as the safe choice that simplifies the address masking by
avoiding an extra instruction and doesn't need a temporary register.

Back when we added SMAP support, all versions of binutils didn't
necessarily understand the 'clac' and 'stac' instructions. So we
implemented those instructions manually as ".byte" sequences.
But we've since upgraded the minimum version of binutils to version
2.25, and that included proper support for the SMAP instructions, and
there's no reason for us to use some line noise to express them any
more.
