2019-02-26iov_iter: optimize page_copy_sane()Eric Dumazet1-2/+15
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.

2019-01-03Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() functionLinus Torvalds1-4/+4
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. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2018-10-24iov_iter: Separate type from direction and use accessor functionsDavid Howells1-13/+15
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.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs 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).

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.

2017-06-09x86, uaccess: introduce copy_from_iter_flushcache for pmem / cache-bypass ↵Dan Williams1-0/+22
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.

2017-05-08treewide: use kv[mz]alloc* rather than opencoded variantsMichal Hocko1-4/+1
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.

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. - Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code.

2016-12-05[iov_iter] new primitives - copy_from_iter_full() and friendsAl Viro1-2/+96
copy_from_iter_full(), copy_from_iter_full_nocache() and csum_and_copy_from_iter_full() - counterparts of copy_from_iter() et.al., advancing iterator only in case of successful full copy and returning whether it had been successful or not. Convert some obvious users. *NOTE* - do not blindly assume that something is a good candidate for those unless you are sure that not advancing iov_iter in failure case is the right thing in this case. Anything that does short read/short write kind of stuff (or is in a loop, etc.) is unlikely to be a good one. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2016-11-17fix iov_iter_advance() for ITER_PIPEAbhi Das1-1/+3
iov_iter_advance() needs to decrement iter->count by the number of bytes we'd moved beyond. Normal flavours do that, but ITER_PIPE doesn't and ITER_PIPE generic_file_read_iter() for O_DIRECT files ends up with a bogus fallback to page cache read, resulting in incorrect values for file offset and bytes read.

2016-10-14iov_iter: kernel-doc import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector()Vegard Nossum1-0/+22
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. Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2016-10-05new iov_iter flavour: pipe-backedAl Viro1-2/+395
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.

2016-07-28mm: optimize copy_page_to/from_iter_iovecMikulas Patocka1-2/+6
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 (without highmem) 928 x86-64 960 sparc64 848 alpha 1136 pa-risc 1200 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use IS_ENABLED(), per Andi] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LRH.2.02.1607221711410.4818@file01.intranet.prod.int.rdu2.redhat.com Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-05-25do "fold checks into iterate_and_advance()" rightAl Viro1-1/+1
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... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
