A previous commit changed overwriting kiocb->ki_flags with
->f_iocb_flags with masking it in. This breaks for retry situations,
where we don't necessarily want to retain previously set flags, like
IOCB_NOWAIT.
The use case needs IOCB_HAS_METADATA to be persistent, but the change
makes all flags persistent, which is an issue. Add a request flag to
track whether the request has metadata or not, as that is persistent
across issues.

There are two remaining uses of the old async data allocator that do not
rely on the alloc cache. I don't want to make them use the new
allocator helper because that would require a if(cache) check, which
will result in dead code for the cached case (for callers passing a
cache, gcc can't prove the cache isn't NULL, and will therefore preserve
the check. Since this is an inline function and just a few lines long,
keep a second helper to deal with cases where we don't have an async
data cache.
No functional change intended here. This is just moving the helper
around and making it inline.

The allocation paths that use alloc_cache duplicate the same code
pattern, sometimes in a quite convoluted way. Fold the allocation into
the cache code itself, making it just an allocator function, and keeping
the cache policy invisible to callers. Another justification for doing
this, beyond code simplicity, is that it makes it trivial to test the
impact of disabling the cache and using slab directly, which I've used
for slab improvement experiments.
One relevant detail is that we provide a callback to optionally
initialize memory only when we actually reach slab. This allows us to
avoid blindly executing the allocation with GFP_ZERO and only clean
fields when they matter.

With *ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG instead of passing a user pointer with arguments
for the waiting loop the user can specify an offset into a pre-mapped

As we address a kernel array using a user given index, it'd be a subject

Modifications of the xarray should always be protected by both

The patch implements mmap for the param region and enables the kernel
allocation mode. Internally it uses a fixed mmap offset, however the
user has to use the offset returned in
struct io_uring_region_desc::mmap_offset.
Note, mmap doesn't and can't take ->uring_lock and the region / ring
lookup is protected by ->mmap_lock, and it's directly peeking at
ctx->param_region. We can't protect io_create_region() with the
mmap_lock as it'd deadlock, which is why io_create_region_mmap_safe()
initialises it for us in a temporary variable and then publishes it
with the lock taken. It's intentionally decoupled from main region
helpers, and in the future we might want to have a list of active
regions, which then could be protected by the ->mmap_lock.

- Work around xa_store() leaving ->head non-NULL if it encounters an

condition. Not a major thing as it basically requires fault injection
to trigger it.
- Fix a few mapping corner cases
- Fix KCSAN complaint on reading the table size post unlock. Again not

io_pages_unmap() is a bit tricky in trying to figure whether the pages

The solution is to fail if io_mem_alloc_compound() can't allocate a

A previous commit fixed task_work overrunning by a lot more than what
the user asked for, by adding a retry list. However, it didn't cap the
overall count, hence for multiple task_work runs inside the same wait
loop, it'd still overshoot the target by potentially a large amount.
Cap it generally inside the wait path. Note that this will still
overshoot the default limit of 20, but should overshoot by no more than
limit-1 in addition to the limit. That still provides a ceiling over how
much task_work will be run, rather than still having gaps where it was

- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the signal
of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be delivered once
the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small intervals
and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states for no value.
This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to the lock order of
posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with life time issues as
the timer and the sigqueue have different life time rules.
Cure this by:
* Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same life
time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of the timer
in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a always valid
container_of() now.
* Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
* Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the signal is
switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
* Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal delivery
code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they are
consistent across all situations. With that all self test scenarios
finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time stamps
by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode attributes
are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that the
VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
* Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
* Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline functions
and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper defines.
* Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the timer
wheel granularity on different HZ values into account. Right now the
boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail to provide the
requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
* Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions and fix
up stale documentation links all over the place
* Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as that's
the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the various user
space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file descriptor
based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited. They can't be
accessed fast as they always go all the way out to the hardware and
they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the kernel
provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework converts
timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality which operates
on pointers to data structures instead of using static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality for
the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.

hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the
signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be
delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small
intervals and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states
for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to
the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with
life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life
time rules.
Cure this by:
- Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same
life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of
the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a
always valid container_of() now.
- Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
- Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the
signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
- Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal
delivery code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they
are consistent across all situations. With that all self test
scenarios finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time
stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode
attributes are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that
the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
- Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
- Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline
functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper
defines.
- Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the
timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account.
Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail
to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
- Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions
and fix up stale documentation links all over the place
- Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP
clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as
that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the
various user space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file
descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited.
They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to
the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Cleanups of the eventfd handling code, making it fully private.
- Support for sending a sync message to another ring, without having a
ring available to send a normal async message.
- Get rid of the separate unlocked hash table, unify everything around
the single locked one.
- Add support for ring resizing. It can be hard to appropriately size
the CQ ring upfront, if the application doesn't know how busy it will
be. This results in applications sizing rings for the most busy case,
which can be wasteful. With ring resizing, they can start small and
grow the ring, if needed.
- Add support for fixed wait regions, rather than needing to copy the
same wait data tons of times for each wait operation.
- Rewrite the resource node handling, which before was serialized per
ring. This caused issues with particularly fixed files, where one
file waiting on IO could hold up putting and freeing of other
unrelated files. Now each node is handled separately. New code is
much simpler too, and was a net 250 line reduction in code.
- Add support for just doing partial buffer clones, rather than always
cloning the entire buffer table.
- Series adding static NAPI support, where a specific NAPI instance is
used rather than having a list of them available that need lookup.
- Add support for mapped regions, and also convert the fixed wait
support mentioned above to that concept. This avoids doing special
mappings for various planned features, and folds the existing
registered wait into that too.
- Add support for hybrid IO polling, which is a variant of strict
IOPOLL but with an initial sleep delay to avoid spinning too early
and wasting resources on devices that aren't necessarily in the < 5
usec category wrt latencies.
- Various cleanups and little fixes.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"Changes outside of btrfs: add io_uring command flag to track a dying
task (the rest will go via the block git tree).
User visible changes:
- wire encoded read (ioctl) to io_uring commands, this can be used on
itself, in the future this will allow 'send' to be asynchronous. As
a consequence, the encoded read ioctl can also work in non-blocking
mode
- new ioctl to wait for cleaned subvolumes, no need to use the
generic and root-only SEARCH_TREE ioctl, will be used by "btrfs
subvol sync"
- recognize different paths/symlinks for the same devices and don't
report them during rescanning, this can be observed with LVM or DM
- seeding device use case change, the sprout device (the one
capturing new writes) will not clear the read-only status of the
super block; this prevents accumulating space from deleted
snapshots
Performance improvements:
- reduce lock contention when traversing extent buffers
- reduce extent tree lock contention when searching for inline
backref
- switch from rb-trees to xarray for delayed ref tracking,
improvements due to better cache locality, branching factors and
more compact data structures
- enable extent map shrinker again (prevent memory exhaustion under
some types of IO load), reworked to run in a single worker thread
(there used to be problems causing long stalls under memory
pressure)
Core changes:
- raid-stripe-tree feature updates:
- make device replace and scrub work
- implement partial deletion of stripe extents
- new selftests
- split the config option BTRFS_DEBUG and add EXPERIMENTAL for
features that are experimental or with known problems so we don't
misuse debugging config for that
- subpage mode updates (sector < page):
- update compression implementations
- update writepage, writeback
- continued folio API conversions:
- buffered writes
- make buffered write copy one page at a time, preparatory work for
future integration with large folios, may cause performance drop
- proper locking of root item regarding starting send
- error handling improvements
- code cleanups and refactoring:
- dead code removal
- unused parameter reduction
- lockdep assertions"
