* fs/pipe: allow sendfile() to pipe againJohannes Berg2021-01-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit 36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit ops") sendfile() could no longer send data from a real file to a pipe, breaking for example certain cgit setups (e.g. when running behind fcgiwrap), because in this case cgit will try to do exactly this: sendfile() to a pipe. Fix this by using iter_file_splice_write for the splice_write method of pipes, as suggested by Christoph.

* block: remove i_bdevChristoph Hellwig2020-12-011-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Switch the block device lookup interfaces to directly work with a dev_t so that struct block_device references are only acquired by the blkdev_get variants (and the blk-cgroup special case). This means that we now don't need an extra reference in the inode and can generally simplify handling of struct block_device to keep the lookups contained in the core block layer code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Calling pipe2() with O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE could results in memory leaks unless watch_queue_init() is successful. In case of watch_queue_init() failure in pipe2() we are left with inode and pipe_inode_info instances that need to be freed. That failure exit has been introduced in commit c73be61cede5 ("pipe: Add general notification queue support") and its handling should've been identical to nearby treatment of alloc_file_pseudo() failures - it is dealing with the same situation. As it is, the mainline kernel leaks in that case. Another problem is that CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE and !CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE cases are treated differently (and the former leaks just pipe_inode_info, the latter - both pipe_inode_info and inode). Fixed by providing a dummy wacth_queue_init() in !CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE case and by having failures of wacth_queue_init() handled the same way we handle alloc_file_pseudo() ones.

* | pipe: remove pipe_wait() and fix wakeup race with spliceLinus Torvalds2020-10-011-21/+41
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pipe splice code still used the old model of waiting for pipe IO by using a non-specific "pipe_wait()" that waited for any pipe event to happen, which depended on all pipe IO being entirely serialized by the pipe lock. So by checking the state you were waiting for, and then adding yourself to the wait queue before dropping the lock, you were guaranteed to see all the wakeups. Strictly speaking, the actual wakeups were not done under the lock, but the pipe_wait() model still worked, because since the waiter held the lock when checking whether it should sleep, it would always see the current state, and the wakeup was always done after updating the state. However, commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") split the single wait-queue into two, and in the process also made the "wait for event" code wait for _two_ wait queues, and that then showed a race with the wakers that were not serialized by the pipe lock. It's only splice that used that "pipe_wait()" model, so the problem wasn't obvious, but Josef Bacik reports: "I hit a hang with fstest btrfs/187, which does a btrfs send into /dev/null. This works by creating a pipe, the write side is given to the kernel to write into, and the read side is handed to a thread that splices into a file, in this case /dev/null. The box that was hung had the write side stuck here [pipe_write] and the read side stuck here [splice_from_pipe_next -> pipe_wait]. [ more details about pipe_wait() scenario ] The problem is we're doing the prepare_to_wait, which sets our state each time, however we can be woken up either with reads or writes. In the case above we race with the WRITER waking us up, and re-set our state to INTERRUPTIBLE, and thus never break out of schedule" Josef had a patch that avoided the issue in pipe_wait() by just making it set the state only once, but the deeper problem is that pipe_wait() depends on a level of synchonization by the pipe mutex that it really shouldn't. And the whole "wait for any pipe state change" model really isn't very good to begin with. So rather than trying to work around things in pipe_wait(), remove that legacy model of "wait for arbitrary pipe event" entirely, and actually create functions that wait for the pipe actually being readable or writable, and can do so without depending on the pipe lock serializing everything.

Thanks to Debarshi Ray, we do have a pull request to use this to fix a problem with gnome-online-accounts - as mentioned last time: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/merge_requests/47 Without this, g-o-a has to constantly poll a keyring-based kerberos cache to find out if kinit has changed anything. [ There are other notification pending: mount/sb fsinfo notifications for libmount that Karel Zak and Ian Kent have been working on, and Christian Brauner would like to use them in lxc, but let's see how this one works first ] LSM hooks are included: - A set of hooks are provided that allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a watch may be set. Each of these hooks takes a different "watched object" parameter, so they're not really shareable. The LSM should use current's credentials. [Wanted by SELinux & Smack] - A hook is provided to allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a particular message may be posted to a particular queue. This is given the credentials from the event generator (which may be the system) and the watch setter. [Wanted by Smack] I've provided SELinux and Smack with implementations of some of these hooks. WHY === Key/keyring notifications are desirable because if you have your kerberos tickets in a file/directory, your Gnome desktop will monitor that using something like fanotify and tell you if your credentials cache changes. However, we also have the ability to cache your kerberos tickets in the session, user or persistent keyring so that it isn't left around on disk across a reboot or logout. Keyrings, however, cannot currently be monitored asynchronously, so the desktop has to poll for it - not so good on a laptop. This facility will allow the desktop to avoid the need to poll. DESIGN DECISIONS ================ - The notification queue is built on top of a standard pipe. Messages are effectively spliced in. The pipe is opened with a special flag: pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); The special flag has the same value as O_EXCL (which doesn't seem like it will ever be applicable in this context)[?]. It is given up front to make it a lot easier to prohibit splice&co from accessing the pipe. [?] Should this be done some other way? I'd rather not use up a new O_* flag if I can avoid it - should I add a pipe3() system call instead? The pipe is then configured:: ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter); Messages are then read out of the pipe using read(). - It should be possible to allow write() to insert data into the notification pipes too, but this is currently disabled as the kernel has to be able to insert messages into the pipe *without* holding pipe->mutex and the code to make this work needs careful auditing. - sendfile(), splice() and vmsplice() are disabled on notification pipes because of the pipe->mutex issue and also because they sometimes want to revert what they just did - but one or more notification messages might've been interleaved in the ring. - The kernel inserts messages with the wait queue spinlock held. This means that pipe_read() and pipe_write() have to take the spinlock to update the queue pointers. - Records in the buffer are binary, typed and have a length so that they can be of varying size. This allows multiple heterogeneous sources to share a common buffer; there are 16 million types available, of which I've used just a few, so there is scope for others to be used. Tags may be specified when a watchpoint is created to help distinguish the sources. - Records are filterable as types have up to 256 subtypes that can be individually filtered. Other filtration is also available. - Notification pipes don't interfere with each other; each may be bound to a different set of watches. Any particular notification will be copied to all the queues that are currently watching for it - and only those that are watching for it. - When recording a notification, the kernel will not sleep, but will rather mark a queue as having lost a message if there's insufficient space. read() will fabricate a loss notification message at an appropriate point later. - The notification pipe is created and then watchpoints are attached to it, using one of: keyctl_watch_key(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01); watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd, 0x02); watch_sb(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", 0, fd, 0x03); where in both cases, fd indicates the queue and the number after is a tag between 0 and 255. - Watches are removed if either the notification pipe is destroyed or the watched object is destroyed. In the latter case, a message will be generated indicating the enforced watch removal. Things I want to avoid: - Introducing features that make the core VFS dependent on the network stack or networking namespaces (ie. usage of netlink). - Dumping all this stuff into dmesg and having a daemon that sits there parsing the output and distributing it as this then puts the responsibility for security into userspace and makes handling namespaces tricky. Further, dmesg might not exist or might be inaccessible inside a container. - Letting users see events they shouldn't be able to see. TESTING AND MANPAGES ==================== - The keyutils tree has a pipe-watch branch that has keyctl commands for making use of notifications. Proposed manual pages can also be found on this branch, though a couple of them really need to go to the main manpages repository instead. If the kernel supports the watching of keys, then running "make test" on that branch will cause the testing infrastructure to spawn a monitoring process on the side that monitors a notifications pipe for all the key/keyring changes induced by the tests and they'll all be checked off to make sure they happened. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/log/?h=pipe-watch - A test program is provided (samples/watch_queue/watch_test) that can be used to monitor for keyrings, mount and superblock events.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow a buffer to be marked such that read() must return the entire buffer in one go or return ENOBUFS. Multiple buffers can be amalgamated into a single read, but a short read will occur if the next "whole" buffer won't fit. This is useful for watch queue notifications to make sure we don't split a notification across multiple reads, especially given that we need to fabricate an overrun record under some circumstances - and that isn't in the buffers.

Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

* pipe: make sure to wake up everybody when the last reader/writer closesLinus Torvalds2020-02-181-8/+10

He even has a trivial reproducer: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { int p[2]; pid_t p1, p2; int status; if (pipe(p) == -1) return 1; p1 = fork(); if (p1 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } p2 = fork(); if (p2 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } sleep(1); close(p[1]); wait(&status); wait(&status); return 0; } and the problem - once he points it out - is obvious. We use these nice exclusive waits, but when the last writer goes away, it then needs to wake up _every_ reader (and conversely, the last reader disappearing needs to wake every writer, of course). In fact, when going through this, we had several small oddities around how to wake things. We did in fact wake every reader when we changed the size of the pipe buffers. But that's entirely pointless, since that just acts as a possible source of new space - no new data to read. And when we change the size of the buffer, we don't need to wake all writers even when we add space - that case acts just as if somebody made space by reading, and any writer that finds itself not filling it up entirely will wake the next one. On the other hand, on the exit path, we tried to limit the wakeups with the proper poll keys etc, which is entirely pointless, because at that point we obviously need to wake up everybody. So don't do that: just wake up everybody - but only do that if the counts changed to zero. So fix those non-IO wakeups to be more proper: space change doesn't add any new data, but it might make room for writers, so it wakes up a writer. And the actual changes to reader/writer counts should wake up everybody, since everybody is affected (ie readers will all see EOF if the writers have gone away, and writers will all get EPIPE if all readers have gone away).

* pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writingLinus Torvalds2020-02-081-23/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

Much better. [ Note! This kernel improvement seems to be very good at triggering a race condition in the make jobserver (in GNU make 4.2.1) for me. It's a long known bug that was fixed back in June 2017 by GNU make commit b552b0525198 ("[SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to avoid hangs."). But there wasn't a new release of GNU make until 4.3 on Jan 19 2020, so a number of distributions may still have the buggy version. Some have backported the fix to their 4.2.1 release, though, and even without the fix it's quite timing-dependent whether the bug actually is hit. ] Josh Triplett says: "I've been hammering on your pipe fix patch (switching to exclusive wait queues) for a month or so, on several different systems, and I've run into no issues with it. The patch *substantially* improves parallel build times on large (~100 CPU) systems, both with parallel make and with other things that use make's pipe-based jobserver.

But perhaps more importantly, this adds commentary about why we still need to wake up possible writers even though we didn't read any data, and why we can skip all the finishing touches now if we get a signal (or had a signal pending) while waiting for more data.

* pipe: don't use 'pipe_wait() for basic pipe IOLinus Torvalds2019-12-071-3/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pipe_wait() may be simple, but since it relies on the pipe lock, it means that we have to do the wakeup while holding the lock. That's unfortunate, because the very first thing the waked entity will want to do is to get the pipe lock for itself. So get rid of the pipe_wait() usage by simply releasing the pipe lock, doing the wakeup (if required) and then using wait_event_interruptible() to wait on the right condition instead. wait_event_interruptible() handles races on its own by comparing the wakeup condition before and after adding itself to the wait queue, so you can use an optimistic unlocked condition for it.

* pipe: remove 'waiting_writers' merging logicLinus Torvalds2019-12-071-14/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This code is ancient, and goes back to when we only had a single page for the pipe buffers. The exact history is hidden in the mists of time (ie "before git", and in fact predates the BK repository too). At that long-ago point in time, it actually helped to try to merge big back-and-forth pipe reads and writes, and not limit pipe reads to the single pipe buffer in length just because that was all we had at a time. However, since then we've expanded the pipe buffers to multiple pages, and this logic really doesn't seem to make sense. And a lot of it is somewhat questionable (ie "hmm, the user asked for a non-blocking read, but we see that there's a writer pending, so let's wait anyway to get the extra data that the writer will have"). But more importantly, it makes the "go to sleep" logic much less obvious, and considering the wakeup issues we've had, I want to make for less of those kinds of things.

A bit less verbose commentary this time, if only because I assume that the write side commentary isn't going to be ignored if you touch this code.

* pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup logicLinus Torvalds2019-12-071-18/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pipe rework ends up having been extra painful, partly becaused of actual bugs with ordering and caching of the pipe state, but also because of subtle performance issues. In particular, the pipe rework caused the kernel build to inexplicably slow down. The reason turns out to be that the GNU make jobserver (which limits the parallelism of the build) uses a pipe to implement a "token" system: a parallel submake will read a character from the pipe to get the job token before starting a new job, and will write a character back to the pipe when it is done. The overall job limit is thus easily controlled by just writing the appropriate number of initial token characters into the pipe. But to work well, that really means that the old behavior of write wakeups being synchronous (WF_SYNC) is very important - when the pipe writer wakes up a reader, we want the reader to actually get scheduled immediately. Otherwise you lose the parallelism of the build. The pipe rework lost that synchronous wakeup on write, and we had clearly all forgotten the reasons and rules for it. This rewrites the pipe write wakeup logic to do the required Wsync wakeups, but also clarifies the logic and avoids extraneous wakeups. It also ends up addign a number of comments about what oit does and why, so that we hopefully don't end up forgetting about this next time we change this code.

* pipe: fix poll/select race introduced by the pipe reworkLinus Torvalds2019-12-071-3/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel wait queues have a basic rule to them: you add yourself to the wait-queue first, and then you check the things that you're going to wait on. That avoids the races with the event you're waiting for. The same goes for poll/select logic: the "poll_wait()" goes first, and then you check the things you're polling for. Of course, if you use locking, the ordering doesn't matter since the lock will serialize with anything that changes the state you're looking at. That's not the case here, though. So move the poll_wait() first in pipe_poll(), before you start looking at the pipe state.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An assertion check was added to pipe_poll() to make sure that the ring occupancy isn't seen to overflow the ring size. However, since no locks are held when the three values are read, it is possible for F_SETPIPE_SZ to intervene and muck up the calculation, thereby causing the oops. Fix this by simply removing the assertion and accepting that the calculation might be approximate. Note that the previous code also had a similar issue, though there was no assertion check, since the occupancy counter and the ring size were not read with a lock held, so it's possible that the poll check might have malfunctioned then too. Also wake up all the waiters so that they can reissue their checks if there was a competing read or write.

The head pointer belongs to the write-side. (2) The tail pointer is the point at which consumption occurs. It points to the next slot to be consumed. This is equivalent to pipe->curbuf. The tail pointer belongs to the read-side. (3) head and tail are allowed to run to UINT_MAX and wrap naturally. They are only masked off when the array is being accessed, e.g.: pipe->bufs[head & mask] This means that it is not necessary to have a dead slot in the ring as head == tail isn't ambiguous. (4) The ring is empty if "head == tail". A helper, pipe_empty(), is provided for this. (5) The occupancy of the ring is "head - tail". A helper, pipe_occupancy(), is provided for this.

* | vfs: mark pipes and sockets as stream-like file descriptorsLinus Torvalds2019-11-251-2/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 3975b097e577 ("convert stream-like files -> stream_open, even if they use noop_llseek") Kirill used a coccinelle script to change "nonseekable_open()" to "stream_open()", which changed the trivial cases of stream-like file descriptors to the new model with FMODE_STREAM. However, the two big cases - sockets and pipes - don't actually have that trivial pattern at all, and were thus never converted to FMODE_STREAM even though it makes lots of sense to do so. That's particularly true when looking forward to the next change: getting rid of FMODE_ATOMIC_POS entirely, and just using FMODE_STREAM to decide whether f_pos updates are needed or not. And if they are, we'll always do them atomically. This came up because KCSAN (correctly) noted that the non-locked f_pos updates are data races: they are clearly benign for the case where we don't care, but it would be good to just not have that issue exist at all. Note that the reason we used FMODE_ATOMIC_POS originally is that only doing it for the minimal required case is "safer" in that it's possible that the f_pos locking can cause unnecessary serialization across the whole write() call. And in the worst case, that kind of serialization can cause deadlock issues: think writers that need readers to empty the state using the same file descriptor. [ Note that the locking is per-file descriptor - because it protects "f_pos", which is obviously per-file descriptor - so it only affects cases where you literally use the same file descriptor to both read and write. So a regular pipe that has separate reading and writing file descriptors doesn't really have this situation even though it's the obvious case of "reader empties what a bit writer concurrently fills" But we want to make pipes as being stream-line anyway, because we don't want the unnecessary overhead of locking, and because a named pipe can be (ab-)used by reading and writing to the same file descriptor. ] There are likely a lot of other cases that might want FMODE_STREAM, and looking for ".llseek = no_llseek" users and other cases that don't have an lseek file operation at all and making them use "stream_open()" might be a good idea. But pipes and sockets are likely to be the two main cases.

To have more than four billion references to a page requires a minimum of 32GB of kernel memory just for the pointers to the pages, much less any metadata to keep track of those pointers. Jann needed a total of 140GB of memory and a specially crafted filesystem that leaves all reads pending (in order to not ever free the page references and just keep adding more). Still, we have a fairly straightforward way to limit the two obvious user-controllable sources of page references: direct-IO like page references gotten through get_user_pages(), and the splice pipe page duplication. So let's just do that. * branch page-refs: fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get mm: prevent get_user_pages() from overflowing page refcount mm: add 'try_get_page()' helper function mm: make page ref count overflow check tighter and more explicit

We keep track of that state where it belongs - in ->f_mode. - int *opened mess killed - in finish_open(), in ->atomic_open() instances and in fs/namei.c code around do_last()/lookup_open()/atomic_open(). - alloc_file() wrappers with saner calling conventions are introduced (alloc_file_clone() and alloc_file_pseudo()); callers converted, with much simplification. - while we are at it, saner calling conventions for path_init() and link_path_walk(), simplifying things inside fs/namei.c (both on open-related paths and elsewhere). * 'work.open3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (40 commits) few more cleanups of link_path_walk() callers allow link_path_walk() to take ERR_PTR() make path_init() unconditionally paired with terminate_walk() document alloc_file() changes make alloc_file() static do_shmat(): grab shp->shm_file earlier, switch to alloc_file_clone() new helper: alloc_file_clone() create_pipe_files(): switch the first allocation to alloc_file_pseudo() anon_inode_getfile(): switch to alloc_file_pseudo() hugetlb_file_setup(): switch to alloc_file_pseudo() ocxlflash_getfile(): switch to alloc_file_pseudo() cxl_getfile(): switch to alloc_file_pseudo() ... and switch shmem_file_setup() to alloc_file_pseudo() __shmem_file_setup(): reorder allocations new wrapper: alloc_file_pseudo() kill FILE_{CREATED,OPENED} switch atomic_open() and lookup_open() to returning 0 in all success cases document ->atomic_open() changes ->atomic_open(): return 0 in all success cases get rid of 'opened' in path_openat() and the helpers downstream ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ... just use put_pipe_info() to get the pipe->files down to 1 and let fput()-called pipe_release() do freeing. Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* | Revert changes to convert to ->poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLLLinus Torvalds2018-06-281-13/+9
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because "->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect calls. Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the "->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections. But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental redesign.
