All callers of vhost_get_avail_idx() use smp_rmb() to
order the available ring entry read and avail_idx read.
Make vhost_get_avail_idx() call smp_rmb() itself whenever the avail_idx
is accessed. This way, the callers don't need to worry about the memory
barrier. As a side benefit, we also validate the index on all paths now,
which will hopefully help prevent/catch earlier future bugs.
Note that current code is inconsistent in how the errors are handled.
They are treated as an empty ring in some places, but as non-empty
ring in other places. This patch doesn't attempt to change the existing
behaviour.
No functional change intended.

Instead of lingering until the device is closed, this has us handle
SIGKILL by:
1. marking the worker as killed so we no longer try to use it with
new virtqueues and new flush operations.
2. setting the virtqueue to worker mapping so no new works are queued.
3. running all the exiting works.

In the next patches where the worker can be killed while in use, we
need to be able to take the worker mutex and kill queued works for
new IO and flushes, and set some new flags to prevent new
__vhost_vq_attach_worker calls from swapping in/out killed workers.
If we are holding the worker mutex during a flush and the flush's work
is still in the queue, the worker code that will handle the SIGKILL
cleanup won't be able to take the mutex and perform it's cleanup. So
this patch has us drop the worker mutex while waiting for the flush
to complete.

__vhost_vq_attach_worker uses the vhost_dev mutex to serialize the
swapping of a virtqueue's worker. This was done for simplicity because
we are already holding that mutex.
In the next patches where the worker can be killed while in use, we need
finer grained locking because some drivers will hold the vhost_dev mutex
while flushing. However in the SIGKILL handler in the next patches, we
will need to be able to swap workers (set current one to NULL), kill
queued works and stop new flushes while flushes are in progress.
To prepare us, this has us use the virtqueue mutex for swapping workers
instead of the vhost_dev one.

with size = start = 0 and last = ULONG_MAX to end up in the iotlb.
Then commit 95932ab2ea ("vhost: allow batching hint without size")
only applied the check for VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE and VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE

Still, the introduction of that check introduced a regression for
some users attempting to invalidate the whole ULONG_MAX range by
setting the size to 0. This is the case with qemu/smmuv3/vhost

This patch drops the requirement that we can only switch workers if work
has not been queued by using RCU for the vq based queueing paths and a
mutex for the device wide flush.
We can also use this to support SIGKILL properly in the future where we
should exit almost immediately after getting that signal. With this
patch, when get_signal returns true, we can set the vq->worker to NULL
and do a synchronize_rcu to prevent new work from being queued to the
vhost_task that has been killed.

For vhost-scsi with 3 vqs or more and a workload that tries to use
them in parallel like:
fio --filename=/dev/sdb --direct=1 --rw=randrw --bs=4k \
--ioengine=libaio --iodepth=128 --numjobs=3
the single vhost worker thread will become a bottlneck and we are stuck
at around 500K IOPs no matter how many jobs, virtqueues, and CPUs are
used.
To better utilize virtqueues and available CPUs, this patch allows
userspace to create workers and bind them to vqs. You can have N workers
per dev and also share N workers with M vqs on that dev.
This patch adds the interface related code and the next patch will hook
vhost-scsi into it. The patches do not try to hook net and vsock into
the interface because:
1. multiple workers don't seem to help vsock. The problem is that with
only 2 virtqueues we never fully use the existing worker when doing
bidirectional tests. This seems to match vhost-scsi where we don't see
the worker as a bottleneck until 3 virtqueues are used.
2. net already has a way to use multiple workers.

vsock can start queueing work after VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID, so
after we have called vhost_worker_create it can be calling
vhost_work_queue and trying to access the vhost worker/task. If
vhost_dev_alloc_iovecs fails, then vhost_worker_free could free
the worker/task from under vsock.
This moves vhost_worker_create to the end of vhost_dev_set_owner
where we know we can no longer fail in that path. If it fails
after the VHOST_SET_OWNER and userspace closes the device, then
the normal vsock release handling will do the right thing.

We can race where we have added work to the work_list, but

This bug was intoduced in commit f9010dbdce ("fork, vhost: Use
CLONE_THREAD to fix freezer/ps regression") when I moved the setting
of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE to simplfy the code and avoid get_signal from
logging warnings about being in the wrong state. This moves the setting
of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE back to before we test if we need to stop the
task to avoid a possible race there as well. We then have vhost_worker
set TASK_RUNNING if it finds work similar to before.

If userspace does VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID before VHOST_SET_OWNER we
can race where:
1. thread0 calls vhost_transport_send_pkt -> vhost_work_queue
2. thread1 does VHOST_SET_OWNER which calls vhost_worker_create.
3. vhost_worker_create will set the dev->worker pointer before setting
the worker->vtsk pointer.
4. thread0's vhost_work_queue will see the dev->worker pointer is
set and try to call vhost_task_wake using not yet set worker->vtsk
pointer.
5. We then crash since vtsk is NULL.
Before commit 6e890c5d50 ("vhost: use vhost_tasks for worker
threads"), we only had the worker pointer so we could just check it to
see if VHOST_SET_OWNER has been done. After that commit we have the
vhost_worker and vhost_task pointer, so we can now hit the bug above.
This patch embeds the vhost_worker in the vhost_dev and moves the work
list initialization back to vhost_dev_init, so we can just check the
worker.vtsk pointer to check if VHOST_SET_OWNER has been done like
before.

When switching from kthreads to vhost_tasks two bugs were added:
1. The vhost worker tasks's now show up as processes so scripts doing
ps or ps a would not incorrectly detect the vhost task as another
process. 2. kthreads disabled freeze by setting PF_NOFREEZE, but
vhost tasks's didn't disable or add support for them.
To fix both bugs, this switches the vhost task to be thread in the
process that does the VHOST_SET_OWNER ioctl, and has vhost_worker call
get_signal to support SIGKILL/SIGSTOP and freeze signals. Note that
SIGKILL/STOP support is required because CLONE_THREAD requires
CLONE_SIGHAND which requires those 2 signals to be supported.
This is a modified version of the patch written by Mike Christie
<michael.christie@oracle.com> which was a modified version of patch
originally written by Linus.
Much of what depended upon PF_IO_WORKER now depends on PF_USER_WORKER.
Including ignoring signals, setting up the register state, and having
get_signal return instead of calling do_group_exit.
Tidied up the vhost_task abstraction so that the definition of
vhost_task only needs to be visible inside of vhost_task.c. Making
it easier to review the code and tell what needs to be done where.
As part of this the main loop has been moved from vhost_worker into
vhost_task_fn. vhost_worker now returns true if work was done.
The main loop has been updated to call get_signal which handles
SIGSTOP, freezing, and collects the message that tells the thread to
exit as part of process exit. This collection clears
__fatal_signal_pending. This collection is not guaranteed to
clear signal_pending() so clear that explicitly so the schedule()
sleeps.
For now the vhost thread continues to exist and run work until the
last file descriptor is closed and the release function is called as
part of freeing struct file. To avoid hangs in the coredump
rendezvous and when killing threads in a multi-threaded exec. The
coredump code and de_thread have been modified to ignore vhost threads.
Remvoing the special case for exec appears to require teaching
vhost_dev_flush how to directly complete transactions in case
the vhost thread is no longer running.
Removing the special case for coredump rendezvous requires either the
above fix needed for exec or moving the coredump rendezvous into
get_signal.

Pull user work thread updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work generalizing the ability to create a kernel
worker from a userspace process.
Such user workers will run with the same credentials as the userspace
process they were created from providing stronger security and
accounting guarantees than the traditional override_creds() approach
ever could've hoped for.
The original work was heavily based and optimzed for the needs of
io_uring which was the first user. However, as it quickly turned out
the ability to create user workers inherting properties from a
userspace process is generally useful.
The vhost subsystem currently creates workers using the kthread api.
The consequences of using the kthread api are that RLIMITs don't work
correctly as they are inherited from khtreadd. This leads to bugs
where more workers are created than would be allowed by the RLIMITs of
the userspace process in lieu of which workers are created.
Problems like this disappear with user workers created from the
userspace processes for which they perform the work. In addition,
providing this api allows vhost to remove additional complexity. For
example, cgroup and mm sharing will just work out of the box with user
workers based on the relevant userspace process instead of manually
ensuring the correct cgroup and mm contexts are used.
So the vhost subsystem should simply be made to use the same mechanism
as io_uring. To this end the original mechanism used for
create_io_thread() is generalized into user workers:
- Introduce PF_USER_WORKER as a generic indicator that a given task
is a user worker, i.e., a kernel task that was created from a
userspace process. Now a PF_IO_WORKER thread is just a specialized
version of PF_USER_WORKER. So io_uring io workers raise both flags.
- Make copy_process() available to core kernel code
- Extend struct kernel_clone_args with the following bitfields
allowing to indicate to copy_process():
- to create a user worker (raise PF_USER_WORKER)
- to not inherit any files from the userspace process
- to ignore signals
After all generic changes are in place the vhost subsystem implements
a new dedicated vhost api based on user workers. Finally, vhost is
switched to rely on the new api moving it off of kthreads.
Thanks to Mike for sticking it out and making it through this rather
arduous journey"

The vhost_get_avail_size and vhost_get_used_size functions compute the size
of structures with flexible array members with an additional 2 bytes if the
VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX feature flag is set. Convert these functions to use
struct_size() and size_add() instead of coding the calculation by hand.
This ensures that the calculations will saturate at SIZE_MAX rather than
overflowing.

For vhost workers we use the kthread API which inherit's its values from
and checks against the kthreadd thread. This results in the wrong RLIMITs
being checked, so while tools like libvirt try to control the number of
threads based on the nproc rlimit setting we can end up creating more
threads than the user wanted.
This patch has us use the vhost_task helpers which will inherit its
values/checks from the thread that owns the device similar to if we did
a clone in userspace. The vhost threads will now be counted in the nproc
rlimits. And we get features like cgroups and mm sharing automatically,
so we can remove those calls.

When the vhost iotlb is used along with a guest virtual iommu
and the guest gets rebooted, some MISS messages may have been
recorded just before the reboot and spuriously executed by
the virtual iommu after the reboot.
As vhost does not have any explicit reset user API,
VHOST_NET_SET_BACKEND looks a reasonable point where to clear
the pending messages, in case the backend is removed.
Export vhost_clear_msg() and call it in vhost_net_set_backend()

vhost_iotlb_itree_first() requires `start` and `last` parameters
to search for a mapping that overlaps the range.
In translate_desc() we cyclically call vhost_iotlb_itree_first(),
incrementing `addr` by the amount already translated, so rightly
we move the `start` parameter passed to vhost_iotlb_itree_first(),
but we should hold the `last` parameter constant.
Let's fix it by saving the `last` parameter value before incrementing
`addr` in the loop.

In vhost_enable_notify() we enable the notifications and we read
the avail index to check if new buffers have become available in
the meantime.
We are not caching the avail index, so when the device will call
vhost_get_vq_desc(), it will find the old value in the cache and
it will read the avail index again.
It would be better to refresh the cache every time we read avail
index, so let's change vhost_enable_notify() caching the value in
`avail_idx` and compare it with `last_avail_idx` to check if there
are new buffers available.
We don't expect a significant performance boost because
the above path is not very common, indeed vhost_enable_notify()
is often called with unlikely(), expecting that avail index has
not been updated.
We ran virtio-test/vhost-test and noticed minimal improvement as
expected. To stress the patch more, we modified vhost_test.ko to
call vhost_enable_notify()/vhost_disable_notify() on every cycle
when calling vhost_get_vq_desc(); in this case we observed a more
evident improvement, with a reduction of the test execution time
of about 3.7%.

In vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx(), range size can overflow to 0 when
start is 0 and last is ULONG_MAX. One instance where it can happen
is when userspace sends an IOTLB message with iova=size=uaddr=0
(vhost_process_iotlb_msg). So, an entry with size = 0, start = 0,
last = ULONG_MAX ends up in the iotlb. Next time a packet is sent,
iotlb_access_ok() loops indefinitely due to that erroneous entry.
