b2ffa407ed vhost: rename vhost_work_dev_flush
This patch renames vhost_work_dev_flush to just vhost_dev_flush to
relfect that it flushes everything on the device and that drivers
don't know/care that polls are based on vhost_works. Drivers just
flush the entire device and polls, and works for vhost-scsi
management TMFs and IO net virtqueues, etc all are flushed.

6ca84326c2 vhost: flush dev once during vhost_dev_stop
When vhost_work_dev_flush returns all work queued at that time will have
completed. There is then no need to flush after every vhost_poll_stop
call, and we can move the flush call to after the loop that stops the
pollers.

6fcf224c37 vhost: get rid of vhost_poll_flush() wrapper
vhost_poll_flush() is a simple wrapper around vhost_work_dev_flush().
It gives wrong impression that we are doing some work over vhost_poll,
while in fact it flushes vhost_poll->dev.
It only complicate understanding of the code and leads to mistakes
like flushing the same vhost_dev several times in a row.

Just remove vhost_poll_flush() and call vhost_work_dev_flush() directly.

aaca8373c4 vhost-vdpa: support ASID based IOTLB API
This patch extends the vhost-vdpa to support ASID based IOTLB API. The
vhost-vdpa device will allocated multiple IOTLBs for vDPA device that
supports multiple address spaces. The IOTLBs and vDPA device memory
mappings is determined and maintained through ASID.

Note that we still don't support vDPA device with more than one
address spaces that depends on platform IOMMU. This work will be done
by moving the IOMMU logic from vhost-vDPA to vDPA device driver.

d3bb267bbd vhost: cache avail index in vhost_enable_notify()
In vhost_enable_notify() we enable the notifications and we read
the avail index to check if new buffers have become available in
the meantime.

We are not caching the avail index, so when the device will call
vhost_get_vq_desc(), it will find the old value in the cache and
it will read the avail index again.

It would be better to refresh the cache every time we read avail
index, so let's change vhost_enable_notify() caching the value in
`avail_idx` and compare it with `last_avail_idx` to check if there
are new buffers available.

We don't expect a significant performance boost because
the above path is not very common, indeed vhost_enable_notify()
is often called with unlikely(), expecting that avail index has
not been updated.

We ran virtio-test/vhost-test and noticed minimal improvement as
expected. To stress the patch more, we modified vhost_test.ko to
call vhost_enable_notify()/vhost_disable_notify() on every cycle
when calling vhost_get_vq_desc(); in this case we observed a more
evident improvement, with a reduction of the test execution time
of about 3.7%.

95932ab2ea vhost: allow batching hint without size
Commit e2ae38cf3d ("vhost: fix hung thread due to erroneous iotlb
entries") tries to reject the IOTLB message whose size is zero. But
the size is not necessarily meaningful, one example is the batching
hint, so the commit breaks that.

Fixing this be reject zero size message only if the message is used to
update/invalidate the IOTLB.

e2ae38cf3d vhost: fix hung thread due to erroneous iotlb entries
In vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx(), range size can overflow to 0 when
start is 0 and last is ULONG_MAX. One instance where it can happen
is when userspace sends an IOTLB message with iova=size=uaddr=0
(vhost_process_iotlb_msg). So, an entry with size = 0, start = 0,
last = ULONG_MAX ends up in the iotlb. Next time a packet is sent,
iotlb_access_ok() loops indefinitely due to that erroneous entry.

beb691e69f vhost: Fix vhost_vq_reset()
vhost_reset_is_le() is vhost_init_is_le(), and in the case of
cross-endian legacy, vhost_init_is_le() depends on vq->user_be.

vq->user_be is set by vhost_disable_cross_endian().

But in vhost_vq_reset(), we have:

    vhost_reset_is_le(vq);
    vhost_disable_cross_endian(vq);

And so user_be is used before being set.

To fix that, reverse the lines order as there is no other dependency
between them.

ab5122510b vhost: Don't call log_access_ok() when using IOTLB
When the IOTLB device is enabled, the log_guest_addr that is passed by
userspace to the VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR ioctl, and which is then written
to vq->log_addr, is a GIOVA. All writes to this address are translated
by log_user() to writes to an HVA, and then ultimately logged through
the corresponding GPAs in log_write_hva(). No logging will ever occur
with vq->log_addr in this case. It is thus wrong to pass vq->log_addr
and log_guest_addr to log_access_vq() which assumes they are actual
GPAs.

Introduce a new vq_log_used_access_ok() helper that only checks accesses
to the log for the used structure when there isn't an IOTLB device around.

0210a8db2a vhost: Don't call access_ok() when using IOTLB
When the IOTLB device is enabled, the vring addresses we get
from userspace are GIOVAs. It is thus wrong to pass them down
to access_ok() which only takes HVAs.

Access validation is done at prefetch time with IOTLB. Teach
vq_access_ok() about that by moving the (vq->iotlb) check
from vhost_vq_access_ok() to vq_access_ok(). This prevents
vhost_vring_set_addr() to fail when verifying the accesses.
No behavior change for vhost_vq_access_ok().

71c0b9a65c vhost: Remove redundant use of read_barrier_depends() barrier
Since commit 76ebbe78f7 ("locking/barriers: Add implicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() to READ_ONCE()"), there is no need to use
smp_read_barrier_depends() outside of the Alpha architecture code.

Unfortunately, there is precisely _one_ user in the vhost code, and
there isn't an obvious READ_ONCE() access making the barrier
redundant. However, on closer inspection (thanks, Jason), it appears
that vring synchronisation between the producer and consumer occurs via
the 'avail_idx' field, which is followed up by an rmb() in
vhost_get_vq_desc(), making the read_barrier_depends() redundant on
Alpha.

Jason says:

  | I'm also confused about the barrier here, basically in driver side
  | we did:
  |
  | 1) allocate pages
  | 2) store pages in indirect->addr
  | 3) smp_wmb()
  | 4) increase the avail idx (somehow a tail pointer of vring)
  |
  | in vhost we did:
  |
  | 1) read avail idx
  | 2) smp_rmb()
  | 3) read indirect->addr
  | 4) read from indirect->addr
  |
  | It looks to me even the data dependency barrier is not necessary
  | since we have rmb() which is sufficient for us to the correct
  | indirect->addr and driver are not expected to do any writing to
  | indirect->addr after avail idx is increased

Remove the redundant barrier invocation.

37c54f9bd4 kernel: set USER_DS in kthread_use_mm
Some architectures like arm64 and s390 require USER_DS to be set for
kernel threads to access user address space, which is the whole purpose of
kthread_use_mm, but other like x86 don't.  That has lead to a huge mess
where some callers are fixed up once they are tested on said
architectures, while others linger around and yet other like io_uring try
to do "clever" optimizations for what usually is just a trivial asignment
to a member in the thread_struct for most architectures.

Make kthread_use_mm set USER_DS, and kthread_unuse_mm restore to the
previous value instead.

9bf5b9eb23 kernel: move use_mm/unuse_mm to kthread.c
Patch series "improve use_mm / unuse_mm", v2.

This series improves the use_mm / unuse_mm interface by better documenting
the assumptions, and my taking the set_fs manipulations spread over the
callers into the core API.

This patch (of 3):

Use the proper API instead.

Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200404094101.672954-1-hch@lst.de

These helpers are only for use with kernel threads, and I will tie them
more into the kthread infrastructure going forward.  Also move the
prototypes to kthread.h - mmu_context.h was a little weird to start with
as it otherwise contains very low-level MM bits.

690623e1b4 vhost: convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages()
This code was using get_user_pages*(), in approximately a "Case 5"
scenario (accessing the data within a page), using the categorization
from [1].  That means that it's time to convert the get_user_pages*() +
put_page() calls to pin_user_pages*() + unpin_user_pages() calls.

There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small part
of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and file
systems' use of those pages.

5ce995f313 vhost: use mmgrab() instead of mmget() for non worker device
For the device that doesn't use vhost worker and use_mm(), mmget() is
too heavy weight and it may brings troubles for implementing mmap()
support for vDPA device.

This is because, an reference to the address space was held via
mm_get() in vhost_dev_set_owner() and an reference to the file was
held in mmap(). This means when process exits, the mm can not be
released thus we can not release the file.

This patch tries to use mmgrab() instead of mmget(), which allows the
address space to be destroy in process exit without releasing the mm
structure itself. This is sufficient for vDPA device which pin user
pages and does not depend on the address space to work.

01fcb1cbc8 vhost: allow device that does not depend on vhost worker
vDPA device currently relays the eventfd via vhost worker. This is
inefficient due the latency of wakeup and scheduling, so this patch
tries to introduce a use_worker attribute for the vhost device. When
use_worker is not set with vhost_dev_init(), vhost won't try to
allocate a worker thread and the vhost_poll will be processed directly
in the wakeup function.

This help for vDPA since it reduces the latency caused by vhost worker.

In my testing, it saves 0.2 ms in pings between VMs on a mutual host.

a865e420b9 virtio: force spec specified alignment on types
The ring element addresses are passed between components with different
alignments assumptions. Thus, if guest/userspace selects a pointer and
host then gets and dereferences it, we might need to decrease the
compiler-selected alignment to prevent compiler on the host from
assuming pointer is aligned.

This actually triggers on ARM with -mabi=apcs-gnu - which is a
deprecated configuration, but it seems safer to handle this
generally.

Note that userspace that allocates the memory is actually OK and does
not need to be fixed, but userspace that gets it from guest or another
process does need to be fixed. The later doesn't generally talk to the
kernel so while it might be buggy it's not talking to the kernel in the
buggy way - it's just using the header in the buggy way - so fixing
header and asking userspace to recompile is the best we can do.

I verified that the produced kernel binary on x86 is exactly identical
before and after the change.

Add kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop() annotations to the
vhost_worker() function, which is responsible for processing vhost
works.

Since vhost_worker() threads are spawned per vhost device instance the
common kcov handle is used for kcov_remote_start()/stop() annotations
(see Documentation/dev-tools/kcov.rst for details).  As the result kcov
can now be used to collect coverage from vhost worker threads.

060423bfde vhost: make sure log_num < in_num
The code assumes log_num < in_num everywhere, and that is true as long as
in_num is incremented by descriptor iov count, and log_num by 1. However
this breaks if there's a zero sized descriptor.

As a result, if a malicious guest creates a vring desc with desc.len = 0,
it may cause the host kernel to crash by overflowing the log array. This
bug can be triggered during the VM migration.

There's no need to log when desc.len = 0, so just don't increment log_num
in this case.

Userspace address are later validated with array_index_nospec so we can
be sure kernel info does not leak through these addresses, but vhost
must also not leak userspace info outside the allowed memory table to
guests.

Following the defence in depth principle, make sure
the address is not validated out of node range.

e9a83bd232 It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:
- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro.  These create more
    than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other
    trees, unfortunately.  He has a lot more of these waiting on the wings
    that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
 
  - A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one
    on Spectre vulnerabilities.
 
  - Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
    function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
    understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
    unattractive and not fun to type.
 
  - We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
 
  - Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc.

Merge tag 'v5.2-rc4' into mauro

We need to pick up post-rc1 changes to various document files so they don't
get lost in Mauro's massive RST conversion push.

7f466032dc vhost: access vq metadata through kernel virtual address
It was noticed that the copy_to/from_user() friends that was used to
access virtqueue metdata tends to be very expensive for dataplane
implementation like vhost since it involves lots of software checks,
speculation barriers, hardware feature toggling (e.g SMAP). The
extra cost will be more obvious when transferring small packets since
the time spent on metadata accessing become more significant.

This patch tries to eliminate those overheads by accessing them
through direct mapping of those pages. Invalidation callbacks is
implemented for co-operation with general VM management (swap, KSM,
THP or NUMA balancing). We will try to get the direct mapping of vq
metadata before each round of packet processing if it doesn't
exist. If we fail, we will simplely fallback to copy_to/from_user()
friends.

This invalidation and direct mapping access are synchronized through
spinlock and RCU. All matedata accessing through direct map is
protected by RCU, and the setup or invalidation are done under
spinlock.

This method might does not work for high mem page which requires
temporary mapping so we just fallback to normal
copy_to/from_user() and may not for arch that has virtual tagged cache
since extra cache flushing is needed to eliminate the alias. This will
result complex logic and bad performance. For those archs, this patch
simply go for copy_to/from_user() friends. This is done by ruling out
kernel mapping codes through ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE.

Note that this is only done when device IOTLB is not enabled. We
could use similar method to optimize IOTLB in the future.

Tests shows at most about 23% improvement on TX PPS when using
virtio-user + vhost_net + xdp1 + TAP on 2.6GHz Broadwell:

        SMAP on | SMAP off
Before: 5.2Mpps | 7.1Mpps
After:  6.4Mpps | 8.2Mpps
