This may run from a kernel thread via device_add_disk(). So this could
also use __fput_sync() if we were worried about EBUSY. But when it is
called from a kernel thread it's always BLK_OPEN_READ so EBUSY can't
really happen even if we do BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES or BLK_OPEN_EXCL.
Otherwise it's called from an ioctl on the block device which is only
called from userspace and can rely on task work.

Add two new helpers to allow opening block devices as files.
This is not the final infrastructure. This still opens the block device
before opening a struct a file. Until we have removed all references to
struct bdev_handle we can't switch the order:
* Introduce blk_to_file_flags() to translate from block specific to
flags usable to pen a new file.
* Introduce bdev_file_open_by_{dev,path}().
* Introduce temporary sb_bdev_handle() helper to retrieve a struct
bdev_handle from a block device file and update places that directly
reference struct bdev_handle to rely on it.
* Don't count block device openes against the number of open files. A
bdev_file_open_by_{dev,path}() file is never installed into any
file descriptor table.
One idea that came to mind was to use kernel_tmpfile_open() which
would require us to pass a path and it would then call do_dentry_open()
going through the regular fops->open::blkdev_open() path. But then we're
back to the problem of routing block specific flags such as
BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES through the open path and would have to waste
FMODE_* flags every time we add a new one. With this we can avoid using
a flag bit and we have more leeway in how we open block devices from
bdev_open_by_{dev,path}().

The logic in blk_mq_complete_need_ipi() assumes SMP systems where all
CPUs have equal compute capacities and only LLC cache can make
a different on perceived performance. But this assumption falls apart on
HMP systems where LLC is shared, but the CPUs have different capacities.
Staying local then can have a big performance impact if the IO request
was done from a CPU with higher capacity but the interrupt is serviced
on a lower capacity CPU.
Use the new cpus_equal_capacity() function to check if we need to send
an IPI.
Without the patch I see the BLOCK softirq always running on little cores
(where the hardirq is serviced). With it I can see it running on all
cores.
This was noticed after the topology change [1] where now on a big.LITTLE
we truly get that the LLC is shared between all cores where as in the
past it was being misrepresented for historical reasons. The logic
exposed a missing dependency on capacities for such systems where there
can be a big performance difference between the CPUs.
This of course introduced a noticeable change in behavior depending on
how the topology is presented. Leading to regressions in some workloads
as the performance of the BLOCK softirq on littles can be noticeably
worse on some platforms.
Worth noting that we could have checked for capacities being greater
than or equal instead for equality. This will lead to favouring higher
performance always. But opted for equality instead to match the
performance of the requester without making an assumption that can lead
to power trade-offs which these systems tend to be sensitive about. If
the requester would like to run faster, it's better to rely on the
scheduler to give the IO requester via some facility to run on a faster
core; and then if the interrupt triggered on a CPU with different
capacity we'll make sure to match the performance the requester is
supposed to run at.

Some of these block operations can access a significant capacity and
take longer than the user expected. A user may change their mind about
wanting to run that command and attempt to kill the process and do
something else with their device. But since the task is uninterruptable,
they have to wait for it to finish, which could be many hours.
Check for a fatal signal at each iteration so the user doesn't have to
wait for their regretted operation to complete naturally.

'open_mutex' of gendisk is used to protect open/close block devices. But
in bd_link_disk_holder(), it is used to protect the creation of symlink
between holding disk and slave bdev, which introduces some issues.
When bd_link_disk_holder() is called, the driver is usually in the process
of initialization/modification and may suspend submitting io. At this
time, any io hold 'open_mutex', such as scanning partitions, can cause
deadlocks. For example, in raid:
T1 T2
bdev_open_by_dev
lock open_mutex [1]
...
efi_partition
...
md_submit_bio
md_ioctl mddev_syspend
-> suspend all io
md_add_new_disk
bind_rdev_to_array
bd_link_disk_holder
try lock open_mutex [2]
md_handle_request
-> wait mddev_resume
T1 scan partition, T2 add a new device to raid. T1 waits for T2 to resume
mddev, but T2 waits for open_mutex held by T1. Deadlock occurs.
Fix it by introducing a local mutex 'blk_holder_mutex' to replace
'open_mutex'.

The detection of dirty-throttled tasks in blk-wbt has been subtly broken
since its beginning in 2016. Namely if we are doing cgroup writeback and
the throttled task is not in the root cgroup, balance_dirty_pages() will
set dirty_sleep for the non-root bdi_writeback structure. However
blk-wbt checks dirty_sleep only in the root cgroup bdi_writeback
structure. Thus detection of recently throttled tasks is not working in
this case (we noticed this when we switched to cgroup v2 and suddently
writeback was slow).
Since blk-wbt has no easy way to get to proper bdi_writeback and
furthermore its intention has always been to work on the whole device
rather than on individual cgroups, just move the dirty_sleep timestamp
from bdi_writeback to backing_dev_info. That fixes the checking for
recently throttled task and saves memory for everybody as a bonus.

Mark the task as having a cached timestamp when set assign it, so we
can efficiently check if it needs updating post being scheduled back in.
This covers both the actual schedule out case, which would've flushed
the plug, and the preemption case which doesn't touch the plugged
requests (for many reasons, one of them being then we'd need to have
preemption disabled around plug state manipulation).

Querying the current time is the most costly thing we do in the block
layer per IO, and depending on kernel config settings, we may do it
many times per IO.
None of the callers actually need nsec granularity. Take advantage of
that by caching the current time in the plug, with the assumption here
being that any time checking will be temporally close enough that the
slight loss of precision doesn't matter.
If the block plug gets flushed, eg on preempt or schedule out, then
we invalidate the cached clock.
On a basic peak IOPS test case with iostats enabled, this changes
the performance from:
IOPS=108.41M, BW=52.93GiB/s, IOS/call=31/31
IOPS=108.43M, BW=52.94GiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=108.29M, BW=52.88GiB/s, IOS/call=31/32
IOPS=108.35M, BW=52.91GiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=108.42M, BW=52.94GiB/s, IOS/call=31/31
IOPS=108.40M, BW=52.93GiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=108.31M, BW=52.89GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
to
IOPS=118.79M, BW=58.00GiB/s, IOS/call=31/32
IOPS=118.62M, BW=57.92GiB/s, IOS/call=31/31
IOPS=118.80M, BW=58.01GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=118.78M, BW=58.00GiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=118.69M, BW=57.95GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=118.62M, BW=57.92GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=118.63M, BW=57.92GiB/s, IOS/call=31/32
which is more than a 9% improvement in performance. Looking at perf diff,
we can see a huge reduction in time overhead:
10.55% -9.88% [kernel.vmlinux] [k] read_tsc
1.31% -1.22% [kernel.vmlinux] [k] ktime_get
Note that since this relies on blk_plug for the caching, it's only
applicable to the issue side. But this is where most of the time calls
happen anyway. On the completion side, cached time stamping is done with
struct io_comp patch, as long as the driver supports it.
It's also worth noting that the above testing doesn't enable any of the
higher cost CPU items on the block layer side, like wbt, cgroups,
iocost, etc, which all would add additional time querying and hence
overhead. IOW, results would likely look even better in comparison with
those enabled, as distros would do.

Convert any user of ktime_get_ns() to use blk_time_get_ns(), and
ktime_get() to blk_time_get(), so we have a unified API for querying the

No functional changes intended, this patch just wraps ktime_get_ns()

Commit 82b74cac28 ("blk-ioprio: Convert from rqos policy to direct
call") pushed setting bio I/O priority down into blk_mq_submit_bio()
-- which is too low within block core's submit_bio() because it
skips setting I/O priority for block drivers that implement
fops->submit_bio() (e.g. DM, MD, etc).
Fix this by moving bio_set_ioprio() up from blk-mq.c to blk-core.c and
call it from submit_bio(). This ensures all block drivers call
bio_set_ioprio() during initial bio submission.

When compiling with gcc version 14.0.1 20240116 (experimental)

result and so this is not a bug. But it's still worth to fix it.

In blk_mq_mark_tag_wait(), __add_wait_queue() may be re-ordered
with the following blk_mq_get_driver_tag() in case of getting driver
tag failure.
Then in __sbitmap_queue_wake_up(), waitqueue_active() may not observe
the added waiter in blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() and wake up nothing, meantime
blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() can't get driver tag successfully.
This issue can be reproduced by running the following test in loop, and
fio hang can be observed in < 30min when running it on my test VM
in laptop.
modprobe -r scsi_debug
modprobe scsi_debug delay=0 dev_size_mb=4096 max_queue=1 host_max_queue=1 submit_queues=4

is just fine in case of running out of tag.

Partial completions of zone append request is not allowed but if a zone
append completion indicates a number of completed bytes different from
the original BIO size, only the BIO status is set to error. This leads
to bio_advance() not setting the BIO size to 0 and thus to not call
bio_endio() at the end of req_bio_endio().
Make sure a partially completed zone append is failed and completed
immediately by forcing the completed number of bytes (nbytes) to be
equal to the BIO size, thus ensuring that bio_endio() is called.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.8.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs super updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the super work for this cycle including the long-awaited
series by Jan to make it possible to prevent writing to mounted block
devices:
- Writing to mounted devices is dangerous and can lead to filesystem
corruption as well as crashes. Furthermore syzbot comes with more
and more involved examples how to corrupt block device under a
mounted filesystem leading to kernel crashes and reports we can do
nothing about. Add tracking of writers to each block device and a
kernel cmdline argument which controls whether other writeable
opens to block devices open with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES flag are
allowed.
Note that this effectively only prevents modification of the
particular block device's page cache by other writers. The actual
device content can still be modified by other means - e.g. by
issuing direct scsi commands, by doing writes through devices lower
in the storage stack (e.g. in case loop devices, DM, or MD are
involved) etc. But blocking direct modifications of the block
device page cache is enough to give filesystems a chance to perform
data validation when loading data from the underlying storage and
thus prevent kernel crashes.
Syzbot can use this cmdline argument option to avoid uninteresting
crashes. Also users whose userspace setup does not need writing to
mounted block devices can set this option for hardening. We expect
that this will be interesting to quite a few workloads.
Btrfs is currently opted out of this because they still haven't
merged patches we require for this to work from three kernel
releases ago.
- Reimplement block device freezing and thawing as holder operations
on the block device.
This allows us to extend block device freezing to all devices
associated with a superblock and not just the main device. It also
allows us to remove get_active_super() and thus another function
that scans the global list of superblocks.
Freezing via additional block devices only works if the filesystem
chooses to use @fs_holder_ops for these additional devices as well.
That currently only includes ext4 and xfs.
Earlier releases switched get_tree_bdev() and mount_bdev() to use
@fs_holder_ops. The remaining nilfs2 open-coded version of
mount_bdev() has been converted to rely on @fs_holder_ops as well.
So block device freezing for the main block device will continue to
work as before.
There should be no regressions in functionality. The only special
case is btrfs where block device freezing for the main block device
never worked because sb->s_bdev isn't set. Block device freezing
for btrfs can be fixed once they can switch to @fs_holder_ops but
that can happen whenever they're ready"

When zones were first added the SCSI and ATA specs, two different
models were supported (in addition to the drive managed one that
is invisible to the host):
- host managed where non-conventional zones there is strict requirement
to write at the write pointer, or else an error is returned
- host aware where a write point is maintained if writes always happen
at it, otherwise it is left in an under-defined state and the
sequential write preferred zones behave like conventional zones
(probably very badly performing ones, though)
Not surprisingly this lukewarm model didn't prove to be very useful and
was finally removed from the ZBC and SBC specs (NVMe never implemented
it). Due to to the easily disappearing write pointer host software
could never rely on the write pointer to actually be useful for say
recovery.
Fortunately only a few HDD prototypes shipped using this model which
never made it to mass production. Drop the support before it is too
late. Note that any such host aware prototype HDD can still be used
with Linux as we'll now treat it as a conventional HDD.

bio_add_hw_page currently always fails or succeeds. This is fine for
the existing callers that always add PAGE_SIZE worth given that the
max_segment_size and max_sectors must always allow at least a page
worth of data. But when we want to add it for bigger amounts of data
this means it can also fail when adding the data to a bio, and creating
a fallback for that becomes really annoying in the callers.
Make use of the existing API design that allows to return a smaller
length than the one passed in and add up to max_segment_size worth
of data from a larger input. All the existing callers are fine with
this - not because they handle this return correctly, but because they
never pass more than a page in.

Before calling add partition or resize partition, there is no check
on whether the length is aligned with the logical block size.
If the logical block size of the disk is larger than 512 bytes,
then the partition size maybe not the multiple of the logical block size,
and when the last sector is read, bio_truncate() will adjust the bio size,
resulting in an IO error if the size of the read command is smaller than
the logical block size.If integrity data is supported, this will also
result in a null pointer dereference when calling bio_integrity_free.

> [PATCH] Speed up direct-io hugetlbpage handling
>
> This patch short-circuits all the direct-io page dirtying logic for
> higher-order pages. Without this, we pointlessly bounce BIOs up to
> keventd all the time.
In the last twenty years, compound pages have become used for more than
just hugetlb. Rewrite these functions to operate on folios instead
of pages and remove the special case for hugetlbfs; I don't think
it's needed any more (and if it is, we can put it back in as a call
to folio_test_hugetlb()).
This was found by inspection; as far as I can tell, this bug can lead
to pages used as the destination of a direct I/O read not being marked
as dirty. If those pages are then reclaimed by the MM without being
dirtied for some other reason, they won't be written out. Then when
they're faulted back in, they will not contain the data they should.
It'll take a pretty unusual setup to produce this problem with several
races all going the wrong way.
This problem predates the folio work; it could for example have been
triggered by mmaping a THP in tmpfs and using that as the target of an
O_DIRECT read.

Write-back throttling (WBT) enables QUEUE_FLAG_STATS on the request
queue. But WBT does not make sense for passthrough io, so skip
QUEUE_FLAG_STATS processing.
Also skip rq_qos_issue/done for passthrough io.
Overall, the change gives ~11% hike in peak performance.

Passthrough commands that utilize metadata currently need to bounce the
user space buffer through the kernel. Add support for mapping user space
directly so that we can avoid this costly overhead. This is similar to
how the normal bio data payload utilizes user addresses with
bio_map_user_iov().
If the user address can't directly be used for reason, like too many
segments or address unalignement, fallback to a copy of the user vec
while keeping the user address pinned for the IO duration so that it
can safely be copied on completion in any process context.

Request queue quiesce may interrupt flush sequence, and the original request
may have been marked as COMPLETE, but can't get finished because of
queue quiesce.
This way is fine from driver viewpoint, because flush sequence is block
layer concept, and it isn't related with driver.
However, driver(such as dm-rq) can call blk_mq_queue_inflight() to count &
drain inflight requests, then the wait & drain never gets done because
the completed & not-finished flush request is counted as inflight.
Fix this issue by not counting completed flush data request as inflight in
case of quiesce.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
- Avoid calling back into LSMs from vfs_getattr_nosec() calls.
IMA used to query inode properties accessing raw inode fields without
dedicated helpers. That was finally fixed a few releases ago by
forcing IMA to use vfs_getattr_nosec() helpers.
The goal of the vfs_getattr_nosec() helper is to query for attributes
without calling into the LSM layer which would be quite problematic
because incredibly IMA is called from __fput()...
__fput()
-> ima_file_free()
What it does is to call back into the filesystem to update the file's
IMA xattr. Querying the inode without using vfs_getattr_nosec() meant
that IMA didn't handle stacking filesystems such as overlayfs
correctly. So the switch to vfs_getattr_nosec() is quite correct. But
the switch to vfs_getattr_nosec() revealed another bug when used on
stacking filesystems:
__fput()
-> ima_file_free()
-> vfs_getattr_nosec()
-> i_op->getattr::ovl_getattr()
-> vfs_getattr()
-> i_op->getattr::$WHATEVER_UNDERLYING_FS_getattr()
-> security_inode_getattr() # calls back into LSMs
Now, if that __fput() happens from task_work_run() of an exiting task
current->fs and various other pointer could already be NULL. So
anything in the LSM layer relying on that not being NULL would be
quite surprised.
Fix that by passing the information that this is a security request
through to the stacking filesystem by adding a new internal
ATT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag. Now the callchain becomes:
__fput()
-> ima_file_free()
-> vfs_getattr_nosec()
-> i_op->getattr::ovl_getattr()
-> if (AT_GETATTR_NOSEC)
vfs_getattr_nosec()
else
vfs_getattr()
-> i_op->getattr::$WHATEVER_UNDERLYING_FS_getattr()
- Fix a bug introduced with the iov_iter rework from last cycle.
This broke /proc/kcore by copying too much and without the correct
offset.
- Add a missing NULL check when allocating the root inode in
autofs_fill_super().
- Fix stable writes for multi-device filesystems (xfs, btrfs etc) and
the block device pseudo filesystem.
Stable writes used to be a superblock flag only, making it a per
filesystem property. Add an additional AS_STABLE_WRITES mapping flag
to allow for fine-grained control.
- Ensure that offset_iterate_dir() returns 0 after reaching the end of
a directory so it adheres to getdents() convention.

Propagate the per-queue stable_write flags into each bdev inode in bdev_add.
This makes sure devices that require stable writes have it set for I/O
on the block device node as well.
Note that this doesn't cover the case of a flag changing on a live device
yet. We should handle that as well, but I plan to cover it as part of a
more general rework of how changing runtime paramters on block devices
works.

Writing to mounted devices is dangerous and can lead to filesystem
corruption as well as crashes. Furthermore syzbot comes with more and
more involved examples how to corrupt block device under a mounted
filesystem leading to kernel crashes and reports we can do nothing
about. Add tracking of writers to each block device and a kernel cmdline
argument which controls whether other writeable opens to block devices
open with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES flag are allowed. We will make
filesystems use this flag for used devices.
Note that this effectively only prevents modification of the particular
block device's page cache by other writers. The actual device content
can still be modified by other means - e.g. by issuing direct scsi
commands, by doing writes through devices lower in the storage stack
(e.g. in case loop devices, DM, or MD are involved) etc. But blocking
direct modifications of the block device page cache is enough to give
filesystems a chance to perform data validation when loading data from
the underlying storage and thus prevent kernel crashes.
Syzbot can use this cmdline argument option to avoid uninteresting
crashes. Also users whose userspace setup does not need writing to
mounted block devices can set this option for hardening.

The old method of implementing block device freeze and thaw operations
required us to rely on get_active_super() to walk the list of all
superblocks on the system to find any superblock that might use the
block device. This is wasteful and not very pleasant overall.
Now that we can finally go straight from block device to owning
superblock things become way simpler.

calls sync_blockdev() and already surfaces any errors. Do the same for

that don't call sync_blockdev() internally but implicitly rely on
bdev_freeze() to do it.
