My recent to change to only use force_sig for a synchronous events
wound up breaking signal reception cifs and drbd. I had overlooked
the fact that by default kthreads start out with all signals set to
SIG_IGN. So a change I thought was safe turned out to have made it
impossible for those kernel thread to catch their signals.
Reverting the work on force_sig is a bad idea because what the code
was doing was very much a misuse of force_sig. As the way force_sig
ultimately allowed the signal to happen was to change the signal
handler to SIG_DFL. Which after the first signal will allow userspace
to send signals to these kernel threads. At least for
wake_ack_receiver in drbd that does not appear actively wrong.
So correct this problem by adding allow_kernel_signal that will allow
signals whose siginfo reports they were sent by the kernel through,
but will not allow userspace generated signals, and update cifs and
drbd to call allow_kernel_signal in an appropriate place so that their
thread can receive this signal.
Fixing things this way ensures that userspace won't be able to send
signals and cause problems, that it is clear which signals the
threads are expecting to receive, and it guarantees that nothing
else in the system will be affected.
This change was partly inspired by similar cifs and drbd patches that
added allow_signal.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
"A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
task.
The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.
Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.
This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"

The drbd module exclusively sends signals to kernel threads it creates with
kthread_create. These kernel threads do not block or ignore signals (only
flush signals after they have been delivered), nor can drbd threads
possibly be pid namespace init processes so the extra work that force_sig
performs that send_sig does not is unnecessary.
Further force_sig is for delivering synchronous signals (aka exceptions).
The locking in force_sig is not prepared to deal with running processes, as
tsk->sighand may change during exec for a running process.
In short it is not only unnecessary for drbd to use force_sig it is
semantically wrong.
With drbd using send_sig it becomes easier to maintain force_sig as only
synchronous signals need to be considered.

And also re-enable partial-zero-out + discard aligned.
With the introduction of REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES,
we started to use that for both WRITE_ZEROES and DISCARDS,
hoping that WRITE_ZEROES would "do what we want",
UNMAP if possible, zero-out the rest.
The example scenario is some LVM "thin" backend.
While an un-allocated block on dm-thin reads as zeroes, on a dm-thin
with "skip_block_zeroing=true", after a partial block write allocated
that block, that same block may well map "undefined old garbage" from
the backends on LBAs that have not yet been written to.
If we cannot distinguish between zero-out and discard on the receiving
side, to avoid "undefined old garbage" to pop up randomly at later times
on supposedly zero-initialized blocks, we'd need to map all discards to
zero-out on the receiving side. But that would potentially do a full
alloc on thinly provisioned backends, even when the expectation was to
unmap/trim/discard/de-allocate.
We need to distinguish on the protocol level, whether we need to guarantee
zeroes (and thus use zero-out, potentially doing the mentioned full-alloc),
or if we want to put the emphasis on discard, and only do a "best effort
zeroing" (by "discarding" blocks aligned to discard-granularity, and zeroing
only potential unaligned head and tail clippings to at least *try* to
avoid "false positives" in an online-verify later), hoping that someone
set skip_block_zeroing=false.
For some discussion regarding this on dm-devel, see also
https://www.mail-archive.com/dm-devel%40redhat.com/msg07965.htmlhttps://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2018-January/msg00271.html
For backward compatibility, P_TRIM means zero-out, unless the
DRBD_FF_WZEROES feature flag is agreed upon during handshake.
To have upper layers even try to submit WRITE ZEROES requests,
we need to announce "efficient zeroout" independently.
We need to fixup max_write_zeroes_sectors after blk_queue_stack_limits():
if we can handle "zeroes" efficiently on the protocol,
we want to do that, even if our backend does not announce
max_write_zeroes_sectors itself.

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.

In preparing to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
removes the discouraged use of AHASH_REQUEST_ON_STACK in favor of
the smaller SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK by converting from ahash-wrapped-shash
to direct shash. By removing a layer of indirection this both improves
performance and reduces stack usage. The stack allocation will be made
a fixed size in a later patch to the crypto subsystem.
The bulk of the lines in this change are simple s/ahash/shash/, but the
main logic differences are in drbd_csum_ee() and drbd_csum_bio(), which
externalizes the page walking with k(un)map_atomic() instead of using
scattergather.

The changes in this patch are as follows:
- Move the .queue_lock initialization from blk_init_queue_node() into
blk_alloc_queue_node().
- Only override the .queue_lock pointer for legacy queues because it
is not useful for blk-mq queues to override this pointer.
- For all all block drivers that initialize .queue_lock explicitly,
change the blk_alloc_queue() call in the driver into a
blk_alloc_queue_node() call and remove the explicit .queue_lock
initialization. Additionally, initialize the spin lock that will
be used as queue lock earlier if necessary.

Careful analysis shows that this flag is not needed.
The RESCUER flag is only needed when a make_request_fn might:
- allocate a bio from the bioset
- submit it with generic_make_request() or similar
- allocate another bio from the bioset
The second allocation can block until the first bio is processed, so
a rescuer is needed to ensure the first bio does get processed. With
a rescuer it will only get processed when the make_request_fn completes.
In drbd, allocations from drbd_io_bio_set happen from drbd_new_req()
or w_restart_disk_io() which is only called to handle
RESTART_FROZEN_DISK_IO.
In former is called precisely once from the make_request_fn.
The later is never called by within the make_request_fn.
So there cannot be two allocations in the same call to the
make_request_fn, so a rescuer is not needed.
Allocations from drbd_md_io_bio_set are used for IO to the bitmap and
the activity log. There are only accessed from worker threads and
workqueues, never directly from make_request_fn.
Again, the rescuer isn't needed.

Recently, drbd_recv_header() was changed to potentially
implicitly "unplug" the backend device(s), in case there
is currently nothing to receive.
Be more explicit about it: re-introduce the original drbd_recv_header(),
and introduce a new drbd_recv_header_maybe_unplug() for use by the
receiver "main loop".
Using explicit plugging via blk_start_plug(); blk_finish_plug();
really helps the io-scheduler of the backend with merging requests.
Wrap the receiver "main loop" with such a plug.
Also catch unplug events on the Primary,
and try to propagate.
This is performance relevant. Without this, if the receiving side does
not merge requests, number of IOPS on the peer can me significantly
higher than IOPS on the Primary, and can easily become the bottleneck.
Together, both changes should help to reduce the number of IOPS
as seen on the backend of the receiving side, by increasing
the chance of merging mergable requests, without trading latency
for more throughput.

drbd does not modify the bi_io_vec of the cloned bio,
so there is no need to clone that part. So bio_clone_fast()
is the better choice.
For bio_clone_fast() we need to specify a bio_set.
We could use fs_bio_set, which bio_clone() uses, or
drbd_md_io_bio_set, which drbd uses for metadata, but it is
generally best to avoid sharing bio_sets unless you can
be certain that there are no interdependencies.
So create a new bio_set, drbd_io_bio_set, and use bio_clone_fast().
Also remove a "XXX cannot fail ???" comment because it definitely
cannot fail - bio_clone_fast() doesn't fail if the GFP flags allow for
sleeping.

This patch converts bioset_create() to not create a workqueue by
default, so alloctions will never trigger punt_bios_to_rescuer(). It
also introduces a new flag BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER which tells
bioset_create() to preserve the old behavior.
All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers,
are given the BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag.
biosets used by filesystems or other top-level users do not
need rescuing as the bio can never be queued behind other
bios. This includes fs_bio_set, blkdev_dio_pool,
btrfs_bioset, xfs_ioend_bioset, and one allocated by
target_core_iblock.c.
biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as
their usage was recently audited and revised to never
risk deadlock.
It is hoped that most, if not all, of the remaining biosets
can end up being the non-rescued version.

"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().
To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().
Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

Pull sched.h split-up from Ingo Molnar:
"The point of these changes is to significantly reduce the
<linux/sched.h> header footprint, to speed up the kernel build and to
have a cleaner header structure.
After these changes the new <linux/sched.h>'s typical preprocessed
size goes down from a previous ~0.68 MB (~22K lines) to ~0.45 MB (~15K
lines), which is around 40% faster to build on typical configs.
Not much changed from the last version (-v2) posted three weeks ago: I
eliminated quirks, backmerged fixes plus I rebased it to an upstream
SHA1 from yesterday that includes most changes queued up in -next plus
all sched.h changes that were pending from Andrew.
I've re-tested the series both on x86 and on cross-arch defconfigs,
and did a bisectability test at a number of random points.
I tried to test as many build configurations as possible, but some
build breakage is probably still left - but it should be mostly
limited to architectures that have no cross-compiler binaries
available on kernel.org, and non-default configurations"

Pull IDR rewrite from Matthew Wilcox:
"The most significant part of the following is the patch to rewrite the
IDR & IDA to be clients of the radix tree. But there's much more,
including an enhancement of the IDA to be significantly more space
efficient, an IDR & IDA test suite, some improvements to the IDR API
(and driver changes to take advantage of those improvements), several
improvements to the radix tree test suite and RCU annotations.
The IDR & IDA rewrite had a good spin in linux-next and Andrew's tree
for most of the last cycle. Coupled with the IDR test suite, I feel
pretty confident that any remaining bugs are quite hard to hit. 0-day
did a great job of watching my git tree and pointing out problems; as
it hit them, I added new test-cases to be sure not to be caught the
same way twice"
Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale:
"The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures.
Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools,
and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up
the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to
users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those
lines waiting for 4.12)
It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which
will shrink a fair few data structures that embed an IDR"

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
- blk-mq scheduling framework from me and Omar, with a port of the
deadline scheduler for this framework. A port of BFQ from Paolo is in
the works, and should be ready for 4.12.
- Various fixups and improvements to the above scheduling framework
from Omar, Paolo, Bart, me, others.
- Cleanup of the exported sysfs blk-mq data into debugfs, from Omar.
This allows us to export more information that helps debug hangs or
performance issues, without cluttering or abusing the sysfs API.
- Fixes for the sbitmap code, the scalable bitmap code that was
migrated from blk-mq, from Omar.
- Removal of the BLOCK_PC support in struct request, and refactoring of
carrying SCSI payloads in the block layer. This cleans up the code
nicely, and enables us to kill the SCSI specific parts of struct
request, shrinking it down nicely. From Christoph mainly, with help
from Hannes.
- Support for ranged discard requests and discard merging, also from
Christoph.
- Support for OPAL in the block layer, and for NVMe as well. Mainly
from Scott Bauer, with fixes/updates from various others folks.
- Error code fixup for gdrom from Christophe.
- cciss pci irq allocation cleanup from Christoph.
- Making the cdrom device operations read only, from Kees Cook.
- Fixes for duplicate bdi registrations and bdi/queue life time
problems from Jan and Dan.
- Set of fixes and updates for lightnvm, from Matias and Javier.
- A few fixes for nbd from Josef, using idr to name devices and a
workqueue deadlock fix on receive. Also marks Josef as the current
maintainer of nbd.
- Fix from Josef, overwriting queue settings when the number of
hardware queues is updated for a blk-mq device.
- NVMe fix from Keith, ensuring that we don't repeatedly mark and IO
aborted, if we didn't end up aborting it.
- SG gap merging fix from Ming Lei for block.
- Loop fix also from Ming, fixing a race and crash between setting loop
status and IO.
- Two block race fixes from Tahsin, fixing request list iteration and
fixing a race between device registration and udev device add
notifiations.
- Double free fix from cgroup writeback, from Tejun.
- Another double free fix in blkcg, from Hou Tao.
- Partition overflow fix for EFI from Alden Tondettar.

It is a relatively common idiom (8 instances) to first look up an IDR
entry, and then remove it from the tree if it is found, possibly doing
further operations upon the entry afterwards. If we change idr_remove()
to return the removed object, all of these users can save themselves a
walk of the IDR tree.

Don't pass a size larger than iov_len to kernel_sendmsg().
Otherwise it will cause a NULL pointer deref when kernel_sendmsg()
returns with rv < size.
DRBD as external module has been around in the kernel 2.4 days already.
We used to be compatible to 2.4 and very early 2.6 kernels,
we used to use
rv = sock_sendmsg(sock, &msg, iov.iov_len);
then later changed to
rv = kernel_sendmsg(sock, &msg, &iov, 1, size);
when we should have used
rv = kernel_sendmsg(sock, &msg, &iov, 1, iov.iov_len);
tcp_sendmsg() used to totally ignore the size parameter.
57be5bd ip: convert tcp_sendmsg() to iov_iter primitives
changes that, and exposes our long standing error.
Even with this error exposed, to trigger the bug, we would need to have
an environment (config or otherwise) causing us to not use sendpage()
for larger transfers, a failing connection, and have it fail "just at the
right time". Apparently that was unlikely enough for most, so this went
unnoticed for years.
Still, it is known to trigger at least some of these,
and suspected for the others:

This should go into 4.9,
and into all stable branches since and including v4.0,
which is the first to contain the exposing change.
It is correct for all stable branches older than that as well
(which contain the DRBD driver; which is 2.6.33 and up).
It requires a small "conflict" resolution for v4.4 and earlier, with v4.5
we dropped the comment block immediately preceding the kernel_sendmsg().

Since commit 63a4cc2486, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.
