From Chong Yuan. - Honor node local allocations for requests on legacy devices.

| * | | aio: fix serial draining in exit_aio()Jens Axboe2015-04-151-15/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | exit_aio() currently serializes killing io contexts. Each context killing ends up having to do percpu_ref_kill(), which in turns has to wait for an RCU grace period. This can take a long time, depending on the number of contexts. And there's no point in doing them serially, when we could be waiting for all of them in one fell swoop. This patches makes my fio thread offload test case exit 0.2s instead of almost 6s.

However, by that point we have already done rw_verify_area(), which would have rejected such unless the file had been one of /dev/mem, /dev/kmem and /proc/kcore. All of which do not have vectored rw methods, so we would've bailed out even earlier. This check had been introduced before rw_verify_area() had been added there - in fact, it was a subset of checks done on sync paths by rw_verify_area() (back then the /dev/mem exception didn't exist at all). The rest of checks (mandatory locking, etc.) hadn't been added until later. Unfortunately, by the time the call of rw_verify_area() got added, the /dev/mem exception had already appeared, so it wasn't obvious that the older explicit check downstream had become dead code. It *is* a dead code, though, since the few files for which the exception applies do not have ->aio_{read,write}() or ->{read,write}_iter() and for them we won't reach that check anyway. What's more, even if we ever introduce vectored methods for /dev/mem and friends, they'll have to cope with negative positions anyway, since readv(2) and writev(2) are using the same checks as read(2) and write(2) - i.e. rw_verify_area().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most callers in the kernel want to perform synchronous file I/O, but still have to bloat the stack with a full struct kiocb. Split out the parts needed in filesystem code from those in the aio code, and only allocate those needed to pass down argument on the stack. The aio code embedds the generic iocb in the one it allocates and can easily get back to it by using container_of. Also add a ->ki_complete method to struct kiocb, this is used to call into the aio code and thus removes the dependency on aio for filesystems impementing asynchronous operations. It will also allow other callers to substitute their own completion callback. We also add a new ->ki_flags field to work around the nasty layering violation recently introduced in commit 5e33f6 ("usb: gadget: ffs: add eventfd notification about ffs events").

* aio: Make it possible to remap aio ringPavel Emelyanov2014-12-131-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are actually two issues this patch addresses. Let me start with the one I tried to solve in the beginning. So, in the checkpoint-restore project (criu) we try to dump tasks' state and restore one back exactly as it was. One of the tasks' state bits is rings set up with io_setup() call. There's (almost) no problems in dumping them, there's a problem restoring them -- if I dump a task with aio ring originally mapped at address A, I want to restore one back at exactly the same address A. Unfortunately, the io_setup() does not allow for that -- it mmaps the ring at whatever place mm finds appropriate (it calls do_mmap_pgoff() with zero address and without the MAP_FIXED flag). To make restore possible I'm going to mremap() the freshly created ring into the address A (under which it was seen before dump). The problem is that the ring's virtual address is passed back to the user-space as the context ID and this ID is then used as search key by all the other io_foo() calls. Reworking this ID to be just some integer doesn't seem to work, as this value is already used by libaio as a pointer using which this library accesses memory for aio meta-data. So, to make restore work we need to make sure that a) ring is mapped at desired virtual address b) kioctx->user_id matches this value Having said that, the patch makes mremap() on aio region update the kioctx's user_id and mmap_base values. Here appears the 2nd issue I mentioned in the beginning of this mail. If (regardless of the C/R dances I do) someone creates an io context with io_setup(), then mremap()-s the ring and then destroys the context, the kill_ioctx() routine will call munmap() on wrong (old) address. This will result in a) aio ring remaining in memory and b) some other vma get unexpectedly unmapped. What do you think?

So truncating aio ring file will contribute to accounting dirty pages (VFS dirty pages decrement), then error occurs. The original goal is keeping these pages in memory (can not be reclaimed or swapped) in life-time via marking it dirty. But thinking more, we have already pinned pages via elevating the page's refcount, which can already achieve the goal, so the SetPageDirty seems unnecessary. In order to fix the issue, using the __set_page_dirty_no_writeback instead of the nop .set_page_dirty, and dropped the SetPageDirty (don't manually set the dirty flags, don't disable set_page_dirty(), rely on default behaviour). With the above change, the dirty pages accounting can work well. But as we known, aio fs is an anonymous one, which should never cause any real write-back, we can ignore the dirty pages (write back) accounting by disabling the dirty pages (write back) accounting capability. So we introduce an aio private backing dev info (disabled the ACCT_DIRTY/WRITEBACK/ACCT_WB capabilities) to replace the default one.

* | percpu_ref: add PERCPU_REF_INIT_* flagsTejun Heo2014-09-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the recent addition of percpu_ref_reinit(), percpu_ref now can be used as a persistent switch which can be turned on and off repeatedly where turning off maps to killing the ref and waiting for it to drain; however, there currently isn't a way to initialize a percpu_ref in its off (killed and drained) state, which can be inconvenient for certain persistent switch use cases. Similarly, percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic/percpu() allow dynamic selection of operation mode; however, currently a newly initialized percpu_ref is always in percpu mode making it impossible to avoid the latency overhead of switching to atomic mode. This patch adds @flags to percpu_ref_init() and implements the following flags. * PERCPU_REF_INIT_ATOMIC : start ref in atomic mode * PERCPU_REF_INIT_DEAD : start ref killed and drained These flags should be able to serve the above two use cases. v2: target_core_tpg.c conversion was missing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As reported by Dan Aloni, commit f8567a3845ac ("aio: fix aio request leak when events are reaped by userspace") introduces a regression when user code attempts to perform io_submit() with more events than are available in the ring buffer. Reverting that commit would reintroduce a regression when user space event reaping is used. Fixing this bug is a bit more involved than the previous attempts to fix this regression. Since we do not have a single point at which we can count events as being reaped by user space and io_getevents(), we have to track event completion by looking at the number of events left in the event ring. So long as there are as many events in the ring buffer as there have been completion events generate, we cannot call put_reqs_available(). The code to check for this is now placed in refill_reqs_available(). A test program from Dan and modified by me for verifying this bug is available at http://www.kvack.org/~bcrl/20140824-aio_bug.c .

That reduces > the number of lines changed and avoid excessive indentation. OK. To me the code looks better/simpler with "if (ctx)", but this is subjective of course, I won't argue. The patch still removes the empty line between mmap_size = 0 and kill_ioctx(), we reset mmap_size only for kill_ioctx(). But feel free to remove this change. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] aio: change exit_aio() to load mm->ioctx_table once and avoid rcu_read_lock() 1. We can read ->ioctx_table only once and we do not read rcu_read_lock() or even rcu_dereference(). This mm has no users, nobody else can play with ->ioctx_table. Otherwise the code is buggy anyway, if we need rcu_read_lock() in a loop because ->ioctx_table can be updated then kfree(table) is obviously wrong. 2. Update the comment. "exit_mmap(mm) is coming" is the good reason to avoid munmap(), but another reason is that we simply can't do vm_munmap() unless current->mm == mm and this is not true in general, the caller is mmput(). 3. We do not really need to nullify mm->ioctx_table before return, probably the current code does this to catch the potential problems. But in this case RCU_INIT_POINTER(NULL) looks better.

Specifically, the reference counts are not decremented if the event is reaped in userspace, leading to the application being unable to submit further aio requests. This patch applies to 3.12+. A separate backport is required for 3.10/3.11. This issue was uncovered as part of CVE-2014-0206.
