As part of the cleanup of some remaining y2038 issues, I came to
fs/compat_ioctl.c, which still has a couple of commands that need support
for time64_t.
In completely unrelated work, I spent time on cleaning up parts of this
file in the past, moving things out into drivers instead.
After Al Viro reviewed an earlier version of this series and did a lot
more of that cleanup, I decided to try to completely eliminate the rest
of it and move it all into drivers.
This series incorporates some of Al's work and many patches of my own,
but in the end stops short of actually removing the last part, which is
the scsi ioctl handlers. I have patches for those as well, but they need
more testing or possibly a rewrite.

Pull pipe rework from David Howells:
"This is my set of preparatory patches for building a general
notification queue on top of pipes. It makes a number of significant
changes:
- It removes the nr_exclusive argument from __wake_up_sync_key() as
this is always 1. This prepares for the next step:
- Adds wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() so that poll can be
woken up from a function that's holding the poll waitqueue
spinlock.
- Change the pipe buffer ring to be managed in terms of unbounded
head and tail indices rather than bounded index and length. This
means that reading the pipe only needs to modify one index, not
two.
- A selection of helper functions are provided to query the state of
the pipe buffer, plus a couple to apply updates to the pipe
indices.
- The pipe ring is allowed to have kernel-reserved slots. This allows
many notification messages to be spliced in by the kernel without
allowing userspace to pin too many pages if it writes to the same
pipe.
- Advance the head and tail indices inside the pipe waitqueue lock
and use wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() to poke poll
without having to take the lock twice.
- Rearrange pipe_write() to preallocate the buffer it is going to
write into and then drop the spinlock. This allows kernel
notifications to then be added the ring whilst it is filling the
buffer it allocated. The read side is stalled because the pipe
mutex is still held.
- Don't wake up readers on a pipe if there was already data in it
when we added more.
- Don't wake up writers on a pipe if the ring wasn't full before we
removed a buffer"

(2) pipe->max_usage - indicates the maximum number of pipe ring slots that
userspace orchestrated events can fill.
This allows for a pipe that is both writable by the general kernel
notification facility and by userspace, allowing plenty of ring space for
notifications to be added whilst preventing userspace from being able to
pin too much unswappable kernel space.

Convert pipes to use head and tail pointers for the buffer ring rather than
pointer and length as the latter requires two atomic ops to update (or a
combined op) whereas the former only requires one.
(1) The head pointer is the point at which production occurs and points to
the slot in which the next buffer will be placed. This is equivalent
to pipe->curbuf + pipe->nrbufs.
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.
(6) The number of free slots in the ring is "pipe->ring_size - occupancy".
A helper, pipe_space_for_user() is provided to indicate how many slots
userspace may use.
(7) The ring is full if "head - tail >= pipe->ring_size".
A helper, pipe_full(), is provided for this.

The .ioctl and .compat_ioctl file operations have the same prototype so
they can both point to the same function, which works great almost all
the time when all the commands are compatible.
One exception is the s390 architecture, where a compat pointer is only
31 bit wide, and converting it into a 64-bit pointer requires calling
compat_ptr(). Most drivers here will never run in s390, but since we now
have a generic helper for it, it's easy enough to use it consistently.
I double-checked all these drivers to ensure that all ioctl arguments
are used as pointers or are ignored, but are not interpreted as integer
values.

If writeback cache is enabled, then writes might get reordered with
chmod/chown/utimes. The problem with this is that performing the write in
the fuse daemon might itself change some of these attributes. In such case
the following sequence of operations will result in file ending up with the
wrong mode, for example:
int fd = open ("suid", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL);
write (fd, "1", 1);
fchown (fd, 0, 0);
fchmod (fd, 04755);
close (fd);
This patch fixes this by flushing pending writes before performing
chown/chmod/utimes.

If regular request queue gets full, currently we sleep for a bit and
retrying submission in submitter's context. This assumes submitter is not
holding any spin lock. But this assumption is not true for background
requests. For background requests, we are called with fc->bg_lock held.
This can lead to deadlock where one thread is trying submission with
fc->bg_lock held while request completion thread has called
fuse_request_end() which tries to acquire fc->bg_lock and gets blocked. As
request completion thread gets blocked, it does not make further progress
and that means queue does not get empty and submitter can't submit more
requests.
To solve this issue, retry submission with the help of a worker, instead of
retrying in submitter's context. We already do this for hiprio/forget
requests.

If virtqueue is full, we put forget requests on a list and these forgets
are dispatched later using a worker. As of now we don't count these forgets
in fsvq->in_flight variable. This means when queue is being drained, we
have to have special logic to first drain these pending requests and then
wait for fsvq->in_flight to go to zero.
By counting pending forgets in fsvq->in_flight, we can get rid of special
logic and just wait for in_flight to go to zero. Worker thread will kick
and drain all the forgets anyway, leading in_flight to zero.
I also need similar logic for normal request queue in next patch where I am
about to defer request submission in the worker context if queue is full.
This simplifies the code a bit.
Also add two helper functions to inc/dec in_flight. Decrement in_flight
helper will later used to call completion when in_flight reaches zero.

Submission context can hold some locks which end request code tries to hold
again and deadlock can occur. For example, fc->bg_lock. If a background
request is being submitted, it might hold fc->bg_lock and if we could not
submit request (because device went away) and tried to end request, then
deadlock happens. During testing, I also got a warning from deadlock

So put requests on a list and end requests from a worker thread.

Pull fuse virtio-fs support from Miklos Szeredi:
"Virtio-fs allows exporting directory trees on the host and mounting
them in guest(s).
This isn't actually a new filesystem, but a glue layer between the
fuse filesystem and a virtio based back-end.
It's similar in functionality to the existing virtio-9p solution, but
significantly faster in benchmarks and has better POSIX compliance.
Further permformance improvements can be achieved by sharing the page
cache between host and guest, allowing for faster I/O and reduced
memory use.
Kata Containers have been including the out-of-tree virtio-fs (with
the shared page cache patches as well) since version 1.7 as an
experimental feature. They have been active in development and plan to
switch from virtio-9p to virtio-fs as their default solution. There
has been interest from other sources as well.
The userspace infrastructure is slated to be merged into qemu once the
kernel part hits mainline.

Add a basic file system module for virtio-fs. This does not yet contain
shared data support between host and guest or metadata coherency speedups.
However it is already significantly faster than virtio-9p.
Design Overview
===============
With the goal of designing something with better performance and local file
system semantics, a bunch of ideas were proposed.
- Use fuse protocol (instead of 9p) for communication between guest and
host. Guest kernel will be fuse client and a fuse server will run on
host to serve the requests.
- For data access inside guest, mmap portion of file in QEMU address space
and guest accesses this memory using dax. That way guest page cache is
bypassed and there is only one copy of data (on host). This will also
enable mmap(MAP_SHARED) between guests.
- For metadata coherency, there is a shared memory region which contains
version number associated with metadata and any guest changing metadata
updates version number and other guests refresh metadata on next access.
This is yet to be implemented.
How virtio-fs differs from existing approaches
==============================================
The unique idea behind virtio-fs is to take advantage of the co-location of
the virtual machine and hypervisor to avoid communication (vmexits).
DAX allows file contents to be accessed without communication with the
hypervisor. The shared memory region for metadata avoids communication in
the common case where metadata is unchanged.
By replacing expensive communication with cheaper shared memory accesses,
we expect to achieve better performance than approaches based on network
file system protocols. In addition, this also makes it easier to achieve
local file system semantics (coherency).
These techniques are not applicable to network file system protocols since
the communications channel is bypassed by taking advantage of shared memory
on a local machine. This is why we decided to build virtio-fs rather than
focus on 9P or NFS.
Caching Modes
=============
Like virtio-9p, different caching modes are supported which determine the
coherency level as well. The “cache=FOO” and “writeback” options control
the level of coherence between the guest and host filesystems.
- cache=none
metadata, data and pathname lookup are not cached in guest. They are
always fetched from host and any changes are immediately pushed to host.
- cache=always
metadata, data and pathname lookup are cached in guest and never expire.
- cache=auto
metadata and pathname lookup cache expires after a configured amount of
time (default is 1 second). Data is cached while the file is open
(close to open consistency).
- writeback/no_writeback
These options control the writeback strategy. If writeback is disabled,
then normal writes will immediately be synchronized with the host fs.
If writeback is enabled, then writes may be cached in the guest until
the file is closed or an fsync(2) performed. This option has no effect
on mmap-ed writes or writes going through the DAX mechanism.

As of now fuse_dev_alloc() both allocates a fuse device and installs it in
fuse_conn list. fuse_dev_alloc() can fail if fuse_device allocation fails.
virtio-fs needs to initialize multiple fuse devices (one per virtio queue).
It initializes one fuse device as part of call to fuse_fill_super_common()
and rest of the devices are allocated and installed after that.
But, we can't afford to fail after calling fuse_fill_super_common() as we
don't have a way to undo all the actions done by fuse_fill_super_common().
So to avoid failures after the call to fuse_fill_super_common(),
pre-allocate all fuse devices early and install them into fuse connection
later.
This patch provides two separate helpers for fuse device allocation and
fuse device installation in fuse_conn.

The /dev/fuse device uses fiq->waitq and fasync to signal that requests are
available. These mechanisms do not apply to virtio-fs. This patch
introduces callbacks so alternative behavior can be used.
Note that queue_interrupt() changes along these lines:
spin_lock(&fiq->waitq.lock);
wake_up_locked(&fiq->waitq);
+ kill_fasync(&fiq->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
spin_unlock(&fiq->waitq.lock);
- kill_fasync(&fiq->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
Since queue_request() and queue_forget() also call kill_fasync() inside
the spinlock this should be safe.

fuse_fill_super() includes code to process the fd= option and link the
struct fuse_dev to the fd's struct file. In virtio-fs there is no file
descriptor because /dev/fuse is not used.
This patch extracts fuse_fill_super_common() so that both classic fuse and
virtio-fs can share the code to initialize a mount.

File systems like virtio-fs need to do not have to play directly with
forget list data structures. There is a helper function use that instead.
Rename dequeue_forget() to fuse_dequeue_forget() and export it so that
stacked filesystems can use it.

The size of struct fuse_req was reduced from 392B to 144B on a non-debug
config, thus the sanitize_global_limit() helper was setting a larger
default limit. This doesn't really reflect reduction in the memory used by
requests, since the fields removed from fuse_req were added to fuse_args
derived structs; e.g. sizeof(struct fuse_writepages_args) is 248B, thus
resulting in slightly more memory being used for writepage requests
overalll (due to using 256B slabs).
Make the calculatation ignore the size of fuse_req and use the old 392B
value.

The page array pointers are also duplicated across fuse_args_pages and

No need to duplicate the argument arrays in fuse_req, so just dereference
req->args instead of copying to the fuse_req internal ones.
This allows further cleanup of the fuse_req structure.

Since we cannot reserve the request structure up-front, make sure that the

Derive fuse_writepage_args from fuse_io_args.
Sending the request is tricky since it was done with fi->lock held, hence
we must either use atomic allocation or release the lock. Both are
possible so try atomic first and if it fails, release the lock and do the
regular allocation with GFP_NOFS and __GFP_NOFAIL. Both flags are
necessary for correct operation.
Move the page realloc function from dev.c to file.c and convert to using
fuse_writepage_args.
The last caller of fuse_write_fill() is gone, so get rid of it.

The fuse_io_args struct is moved to fuse_i.h so it can be shared between
readdir/read code.
