kmap_local_page() is enough there. Moreover, we can use _copy_to_iter()
for actual copying in those cases - no useful extra checks on the
address we are copying from in that call.

Iterator macros used to provide the arguments for step callbacks in
a structure matching the flavour - iovec for ITER_IOVEC, kvec for
ITER_KVEC and bio_vec for ITER_BVEC. That already broke down for
ITER_XARRAY (bio_vec there); now that we are using kvec callback
for bvec and xarray cases, we are always passing a pointer + length
(void __user * + size_t for ITER_IOVEC callback, void * + size_t
for everything else).
Note that the original reason for bio_vec (page + offset + len) in
case of ITER_BVEC used to be that we did *not* want to kmap a
page when all we wanted was e.g. to find the alignment of its
subrange. Now all such users are gone and the ones that are left
want the page mapped anyway for actually copying the data.
So in all cases we have pointer + length, and there's no good
reason for keeping those in struct iovec or struct kvec - we
can just pass them to callback separately.
Again, less boilerplate in callbacks...
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Making iterator macros keep track of the amount of data copied is pretty
easy and it has several benefits:
1) we no longer need the mess like (from += v.iov_len) - v.iov_len
in the callbacks - initial value + total amount copied so far would do
just fine.
2) less obviously, we no longer need to remember the initial amount
of data we wanted to copy; the loops in iterator macros are along the lines
of
wanted = bytes;
while (bytes) {
copy some
bytes -= copied
if short copy
break
}
bytes = wanted - bytes;
Replacement is
offs = 0;
while (bytes) {
copy some
offs += copied
bytes -= copied
if short copy
break
}
bytes = offs;
That wouldn't be a win per se, but unlike the initial value of bytes, the amount
copied so far *is* useful in callbacks.
3) in some cases (csum_and_copy_..._iter()) we already had offs manually
maintained by the callbacks. With that change we can drop that.
Less boilerplate and more readable code...

After the previous commit we have
* xarray and bvec callbacks idential in all cases
* both equivalent to kvec callback wrapped into
kmap_local_page()/kunmap_local() pair.
So we can pass only two (iovec and kvec) callbacks to
iterate_and_advance() and let iterate_{bvec,xarray} wrap
it into kmap_local_page()/kunmap_local_page().
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
... and now we finally can sort out the mess in _copy_mc_to_iter().
Provide a variant of iterate_and_advance() that does *NOT* ignore
the return values of bvec, xarray and kvec callbacks, use that in
_copy_mc_to_iter(). That gets rid of magic in those callbacks -
we used to need it so we'd get at least the right return value in
case of failure halfway through.
As a bonus, now iterator is advanced by the amount actually copied
for all flavours. That's what the callers expect and it used to do that
correctly in iovec and xarray cases. However, in kvec and bvec cases
the iterator had not been advanced on such failures, breaking the users.
Fixed now...

The differences between iterate_iovec and iterate_kvec are minor:
* kvec callback is treated as if it returned 0
* initialization of __p is with i->iov and i->kvec resp.
which is trivially dealt with.
No code generation changes - compiler is quite capable of turning
left = ((void)(STEP), 0);

iov_iter_advance() needs to do some non-trivial work when it's given
0 as argument (skip all empty iovecs, mostly). We used to implement
it via iterate_and_advance(); we no longer do so and for all other
users of iterate_and_advance() zero length is a no-op.
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Namely, have off counted starting from 0 rather than from csstate->off.
To compensate we need to shift the initial value (csstate->sum) (rotate
by 8 bits, as usual for csum) and do the same after we are finished adding
the pieces up.
What we get out of that is a bit more redundancy in our variables - from
is always equal to addr + off, which will be useful several commits down
the road.

Replacement is called copy_page_from_iter_atomic(); unlike the old primitive the
callers do *not* need to do iov_iter_advance() after it. In case when they end
up consuming less than they'd been given they need to do iov_iter_revert() on
everything they had not consumed. That, however, needs to be done only on slow
paths.
All in-tree callers converted. And that kills the last user of iterate_all_kinds()

note that in bvec case pages can be compound ones - we can't just assume
that each segment is covered by one (sub)page
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Here iterate_all_kinds() is used just to find the first (non-empty, in
case of iovec) segment. Which can be easily done explicitly.
Note that in bvec case we now can get more than PAGE_SIZE worth of them,
in case when we have a compound page in bvec and a range that crosses
a subpage boundary. Older behaviour had been to stop on that boundary;
we used to get the right first page (for_each_bvec() took care of that),
but that was all we'd got.
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
For one thing, it's only used for iovec (and makes sense only for those).
For another, here we don't care about iov_offset, since the beginning of
the first segment and the end of the last one are ignored. So it makes
a lot more sense to just walk through the iovec array...
We need to deal with the case of truncated iov_iter, but unlike the
situation with iov_iter_alignment() we don't care where the last
segment ends - just which segment is the last one.

1) constify iov_iter argument; we are not advancing it in this primitive.
2) cap the amount requested by the amount of data in iov_iter. All
existing callers should've been safe, but the check is really cheap and
doing it here makes for easier analysis, as well as more consistent
semantics among the primitives.
3) don't bother with iterate_iovec(). Explicit loop is not any harder
to follow, and we get rid of standalone iterate_iovec() users - it's
only used by iterate_and_advance() and (soon to be gone) iterate_all_kinds().

Patch series "btrfs: Convert kmap/memset/kunmap to memzero_user()".
Lifting memzero_user(), convert it to kmap_local_page() and then use it
in btrfs.
This patch (of 3):
memzero_page() can replace the kmap/memset/kunmap pattern in other
places in the code. While zero_user() has the same interface it is not
the same call and its use should be limited and some of those calls may
be better converted from zero_user() to memzero_page().[1] But that is
not addressed in this series.
Lift memzero_page() to highmem.

Fix four things[1] in the patch that adds ITER_XARRAY[2]:
(1) Remove the address_space struct predeclaration. This is a holdover
from when it was ITER_MAPPING.
(2) Fix _copy_mc_to_iter() so that the xarray segment updates count and
iov_offset in the iterator before returning.
(3) Fix iov_iter_alignment() to not loop in the xarray case. Because the
middle pages are all whole pages, only the end pages need be
considered - and this can be reduced to just looking at the start
position in the xarray and the iteration size.
(4) Fix iov_iter_advance() to limit the size of the advance to no more
than the remaining iteration size.

Working through a conversion to a call kmap_local_page() instead of
kmap() revealed many places where the pattern kmap/memcpy/kunmap
occurred.
Eric Biggers, Matthew Wilcox, Christoph Hellwig, Dan Williams, and Al
Viro all suggested putting this code into helper functions. Al Viro
further pointed out that these functions already existed in the iov_iter
code.[1]
Various locations for the lifted functions were considered.
Headers like mm.h or string.h seem ok but don't really portray the
functionality well. pagemap.h made some sense but is for page cache
functionality.[2]
Another alternative would be to create a new header for the promoted
memcpy functions, but it masks the fact that these are designed to copy
to/from pages using the kernel direct mappings and complicates matters
with a new header.
Placing these functions in 'highmem.h' is suboptimal especially with the
changes being proposed in the functionality of kmap. From a caller
perspective including/using 'highmem.h' implies that the functions
defined in that header are only required when highmem is in use which is
increasingly not the case with modern processors. However, highmem.h is
where all the current functions like this reside (zero_user(),
clear_highpage(), clear_user_highpage(), copy_user_highpage(), and
copy_highpage()). So it makes the most sense even though it is
distasteful for some.[3]
Lift memcpy_to_page() and memcpy_from_page() to pagemap.h.

relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.
Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().
Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.
One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

Use in compat_syscall to import either native or the compat iovecs, and
remove the now superflous compat_import_iovec.
This removes the need for special compat logic in most callers, and
the remaining ones can still be simplified by using __import_iovec
with a bool compat parameter.

Split rw_copy_check_uvector into two new helpers with more sensible
calling conventions:
- iovec_from_user copies a iovec from userspace either into the provided
stack buffer if it fits, or allocates a new buffer for it. Returns
the actually used iovec. It also verifies that iov_len does fit a
signed type, and handles compat iovecs if the compat flag is set.
- __import_iovec consolidates the native and compat versions of
import_iovec. It calls iovec_from_user, then validates each iovec
actually points to user addresses, and ensures the total length
doesn't overflow.
This has two major implications:
- the access_process_vm case loses the total lenght checking, which
wasn't required anyway, given that each call receives two iovecs
for the local and remote side of the operation, and it verifies
the total length on the local side already.
- instead of a single loop there now are two loops over the iovecs.
Given that the iovecs are cache hot this doesn't make a major
difference

This lets the compiler inline it into import_iovec() generating
much better code.

All callers of these primitives will
* discard anything we might've copied in case of error
* ignore the csum value in case of error
* always pass 0xffffffff as the initial sum, so the
resulting csum value (in case of success, that is) will never be 0.
That suggest the following calling conventions:
* don't pass err_ptr - just return 0 on error.
* don't bother with zeroing destination, etc. in case of error
* don't pass the initial sum - just use 0xffffffff.
This commit does the minimal conversion in the instances of csum_and_copy_...();
the changes of actual asm code behind them are done later in the series.
Note that this asm code is often shared with csum_partial_copy_nocheck();
the difference is that csum_partial_copy_nocheck() passes 0 for initial
sum while csum_and_copy_..._user() pass 0xffffffff. Fortunately, we are
free to pass 0xffffffff in all cases and subsequent patches will use that
freedom without any special comments.
A part that could be split off: parisc and uml/i386 claimed to have
csum_and_copy_to_user() instances of their own, but those were identical
to the generic one, so we simply drop them. Not sure if it's worth
a separate commit...

Preparation for the change of calling conventions; right now all
callers pass 0 as initial sum. Passing 0xffffffff instead yields
the values comparable mod 0xffff and guarantees that 0 will not
be returned on success.

It's always 0. Note that we theoretically could use ~0U as well -
result will be the same modulo 0xffff, _if_ the damn thing did the
right thing for any value of initial sum; later we'll make use of
that when convenient.
However, unlike csum_and_copy_..._user(), there are instances that
did not work for arbitrary initial sums; c6x is one such.
