87e5e6dab6 uio: make import_iovec()/compat_import_iovec() return bytes on success
Currently these functions return < 0 on error, and 0 for success.
Change that so that we return < 0 on error, but number of bytes
for success.

Some callers already treat the return value that way, others need a
slight tweak.

73b0140bf0 mm/gup: change GUP fast to use flags rather than a write 'bool'
To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the
singular write parameter to be gup_flags.

This patch does not change any functionality.  New functionality will
follow in subsequent patches.

Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they
already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter.

NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast()
arguments to ensure that callers were converted.  This breaks the current
GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final
parameter.  So the suggestion was rejected.

6daef95b8c iov_iter: optimize page_copy_sane()
Avoid cache line miss dereferencing struct page if we can.

page_copy_sane() mostly deals with order-0 pages.

Extra cache line miss is visible on TCP recvmsg() calls dealing
with GRO packets (typically 45 page frags are attached to one skb).

Bringing the 45 struct pages into cpu cache while copying the data
is not free, since the freeing of the skb (and associated
page frags put_page()) can happen after cache lines have been evicted.

96d4f267e4 Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

aa563d7bca iov_iter: Separate type from direction and use accessor functions
In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator
direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places.

Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather
then chains of bitwise-AND statements.  This makes it easier to add further
iterator types.  Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch
of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare
instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions.

Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function.
The iterator function can set that itself.  Only the direction is required.

Pull iov_iter hardening from Al Viro:
 "This is the iov_iter/uaccess/hardening pile.

  For one thing, it trims the inline part of copy_to_user/copy_from_user
  to the minimum that *does* need to be inlined - object size checks,
  basically. For another, it sanitizes the checks for iov_iter
  primitives. There are 4 groups of checks: access_ok(), might_fault(),
  object size and KASAN.

   - access_ok() had been verified by whoever had set the iov_iter up.
     However, that has happened in a function far away, so proving that
     there's no path to actual copying bypassing those checks is hard
     and proving that iov_iter has not been buggered in the meanwhile is
     also not pleasant. So we want those redone in actual
     copyin/copyout.

   - might_fault() is better off consolidated - we know whether it needs
     to be checked as soon as we enter iov_iter primitive and observe
     the iov_iter flavour. No need to wait until the copyin/copyout. The
     call chains are short enough to make sure we won't miss anything -
     in fact, it's more robust that way, since there are cases where we
     do e.g. forced fault-in before getting to copyin/copyout. It's not
     quite what we need to check (in particular, combination of
     iovec-backed and set_fs(KERNEL_DS) is almost certainly a bug, not a
     cause to skip checks), but that's for later series. For now let's
     keep might_fault().

   - KASAN checks belong in copyin/copyout - at the same level where
     other iov_iter flavours would've hit them in memcpy().

   - object size checks should apply to *all* iov_iter flavours, not
     just iovec-backed ones.

  There are two groups of primitives - one gets the kernel object
  described as pointer + size (copy_to_iter(), etc.) while another gets
  it as page + offset + size (copy_page_to_iter(), etc.)

  For the first group the checks are best done where we actually have a
  chance to find the object size. In other words, those belong in inline
  wrappers in uio.h, before calling into iov_iter.c. Same kind as we
  have for inlined part of copy_to_user().

  For the second group there is no object to look at - offset in page is
  just a number, it bears no type information. So we do them in the
  common helper called by iov_iter.c primitives of that kind. All it
  currently does is checking that we are not trying to access outside of
  the compound page; eventually we might want to add some sanity checks
  on the page involved.

  So the things we need in copyin/copyout part of iov_iter.c do not
  quite match anything in uaccess.h (we want no zeroing, we *do* want
  access_ok() and KASAN and we want no might_fault() or object size
  checks done on that level). OTOH, these needs are simple enough to
  provide a couple of helpers (static in iov_iter.c) doing just what we
  need..."

* might_fault() is better checked in caller (and e.g. fault-in + kmap_atomic
codepath also needs might_fault() coverage)
* we have already done object size checks
* we have *NOT* done access_ok() recently enough; we rely upon the
iovec array having passed sanity checks back when it had been created
and not nothing having buggered it since.  However, that's very much
non-local, so we'd better recheck that.

So the thing we want does not match anything in uaccess - we need
access_ok + kasan checks + raw copy without any zeroing.  Just define
such helpers and use them here.

0aed55af88 x86, uaccess: introduce copy_from_iter_flushcache for pmem / cache-bypass operations
The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory
destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not
cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer
(non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync()
to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The
fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn
around and fence previous writes with an "sfence".

Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and
memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in
the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines
will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h +
arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache()
and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE
config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy()
otherwise.

This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do
something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to
that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with
the rest of the uaccess code [2].

The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so
that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this
overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

752ade68cb treewide: use kv[mz]alloc* rather than opencoded variants
There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc.  Let's use the helper
instead.  The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are
usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator.  E.g.
allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing
and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation.  This sounds too
disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc.
On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the
memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction
attempts previously.  There is no guarantee something like that happens
though.

This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because
they are more conservative.

5b47d59af6 fix braino in generic_file_read_iter()
Wrong sign of iov_iter_revert() argument.  Unfortunately, slipped through
the testing, since most of the time we don't do anything to the iterator
afterwards and potential oops on walking the iter->iov too far backwards
is too infrequent to be easily triggered.

Add a sanity check in iov_iter_revert() to catch bugs like this one;
fortunately, the same braino hadn't happened in other callers, but we'd
better have a warning if such thing crops up.

b9dc6f65bc fix a fencepost error in pipe_advance()
The logics in pipe_advance() used to release all buffers past the new
position failed in cases when the number of buffers to release was equal
to pipe->buffers.  If that happened, none of them had been released,
leaving pipe full.  Worse, it was trivial to trigger and we end up with
pipe full of uninitialized pages.  IOW, it's an infoleak.

33844e6651 [iov_iter] fix iterate_all_kinds() on empty iterators
Problem similar to ones dealt with in "fold checks into iterate_and_advance()"
and followups, except that in this case we really want to do nothing when
asked for zero-length operation - unlike zero-length iterate_and_advance(),
zero-length iterate_all_kinds() has no side effects, and callers are simpler
that way.

That got exposed when copy_from_iter_full() had been used by tipc, which
builds an msghdr with zero payload and (now) feeds it to a primitive
based on iterate_all_kinds() instead of iterate_and_advance().

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
  release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
  always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
  reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
  probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
  for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.

  The major parts of this pull request is:

   - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
     private implementation instead of using the pig that is
     fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.

   - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
     by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
     writeback queue throttling code.

   - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
     that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.

   - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
     side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
     scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.

   - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
     and Shaun.

   - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.

   - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
     which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
     Christoph.

   - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
     stopping and starting in blk-mq.

   - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.

   - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.

ffecee4f24 iov_iter: kernel-doc import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector()
Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array
(typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy
from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the
fast path (i.e. few iovec elements).

The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used
the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between
the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are
for each function.

241699cd72 new iov_iter flavour: pipe-backed
iov_iter variant for passing data into pipe.  copy_to_iter()
copies data into page(s) it has allocated and stuffs them into
the pipe; copy_page_to_iter() stuffs there a reference to the
page given to it.  Both will try to coalesce if possible.
iov_iter_zero() is similar to copy_to_iter(); iov_iter_get_pages()
and friends will do as copy_to_iter() would have and return the
pages where the data would've been copied.  iov_iter_advance()
will truncate everything past the spot it has advanced to.

New primitive: iov_iter_pipe(), used for initializing those.
pipe should be locked all along.

Running out of space acts as fault would for iovec-backed ones;
in other words, giving it to ->read_iter() may result in short
read if the pipe overflows, or -EFAULT if it happens with nothing
copied there.

In other words, ->read_iter() on those acts pretty much like
->splice_read().  Moreover, all generic_file_splice_read() users,
as well as many other ->splice_read() instances can be switched
to that scheme - that'll happen in the next commit.

3fa6c50731 mm: optimize copy_page_to/from_iter_iovec
copy_page_to_iter_iovec() and copy_page_from_iter_iovec() copy some data
to userspace or from userspace.  These functions have a fast path where
they map a page using kmap_atomic and a slow path where they use kmap.

kmap is slower than kmap_atomic, so the fast path is preferred.

However, on kernels without highmem support, kmap just calls
page_address, so there is no need to avoid kmap.  On kernels without
highmem support, the fast path just increases code size (and cache
footprint) and it doesn't improve copy performance in any way.

This patch enables the fast path only if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is defined.

Code size reduced by this patch:

  x86-64		  960
  sparc64		  848

19f1845933 do "fold checks into iterate_and_advance()" right
the only case when we should skip the iterate_and_advance() guts
is when nothing's left in the iterator, _not_ just when requested
amount is 0.  Said guts will do nothing in the latter case anyway;
the problem we tried to deal with in the aforementioned commit is
that when there's nothing left *and* the amount requested is 0,
we might end up deferencing one iovec too many; the value we fetch
from there is discarded in that case, but theoretically it might
oops if the iovec array ends exactly at the end of page with the
next page not mapped.

Bailing out on zero size requested had an unexpected side effect -
zero-length segment in the beginning of iovec array ended up
throwing do_loop_readv_writev() into infinite spin; we do not
advance past the empty segment at all.  Reproducer is trivial:
echo '#include <sys/uio.h>' >a.c
echo 'main() {char c; struct iovec v[] = {{&c,0},{&c,1}}; readv(0,v,2);}' >>a.c
cc a.c && ./a.out </proc/uptime

which should end up with the process not hanging.  Probably ought to
go into LTP or xfstests...

171a02032b VFS: Add iov_iter_fault_in_multipages_readable()
simillar to iov_iter_fault_in_readable() but differs in that it is
not limited to faulting in the first iovec and instead faults in
"bytes" bytes iterating over the iovecs as necessary.

Also, instead of only faulting in the first and last page of the
range, all pages are faulted in.

This function is needed by NTFS when it does multi page file
writes.

bc917be810 saner iov_iter initialization primitives
iovec-backed iov_iter instances are assumed to satisfy several properties:
	* no more than UIO_MAXIOV elements in iovec array
	* total size of all ranges is no more than MAX_RW_COUNT
	* all ranges pass access_ok().

The problem is, invariants of data structures should be established in the
primitives creating those data structures, not in the code using those
primitives.  And iov_iter_init() violates that principle.  For a while we
managed to get away with that, but once the use of iov_iter started to
spread, it didn't take long for shit to hit the fan - missed check in
sys_sendto() had introduced a roothole.

We _do_ have primitives for importing and validating iovecs (both native and
compat ones) and those primitives are almost always followed by shoving the
resulting iovec into iov_iter.  Life would be considerably simpler (and safer)
if we combined those primitives with initializing iov_iter.

That gives us two new primitives - import_iovec() and compat_import_iovec().
Calling conventions:
	iovec = iov_array;
	err = import_iovec(direction, uvec, nr_segs,
			   ARRAY_SIZE(iov_array), &iovec,
			   &iter);
imports user vector into kernel space (into iov_array if it fits, allocated
if it doesn't fit or if iovec was NULL), validates it and sets iter up to
refer to it.  On success 0 is returned and allocated kernel copy (or NULL
if the array had fit into caller-supplied one) is returned via iovec.
On failure all allocations are undone and -E... is returned.  If the total
size of ranges exceeds MAX_RW_COUNT, the excess is silently truncated.

compat_import_iovec() expects uvec to be a pointer to user array of compat_iovec;
otherwise it's identical to import_iovec().

Finally, import_single_range() sets iov_iter backed by single-element iovec
covering a user-supplied range -

	err = import_single_range(direction, address, size, iovec, &iter);

does validation and sets iter up.  Again, size in excess of MAX_RW_COUNT gets
silently truncated.

Next commits will be switching the things up to use of those and reducing
the amount of iov_iter_init() instances.
