[ Upstream commit dc12d1799ce710fd90abbe0ced71e7e1ae0894fc ]

The UINT_MAX work item counting bias in io_req_local_work_add() in case
of !IOU_F_TWQ_LAZY_WAKE works in a sense that we will not miss a wake up,
however it's still eerie. In particular, if we add a lazy work item
after a non-lazy one, we'll increment it and get nr_tw==0, and
subsequent adds may try to unnecessarily wake up the task, which is
though not so likely to happen in real workloads.

Half the bias, it's still large enough to be larger than any valid
-&gt;cq_wait_nr, which is limited by IORING_MAX_CQ_ENTRIES, but further
have a good enough of space before it overflows.

commit 6ff1407e24e6fdfa4a16ba9ba551e3d253a26391 upstream.

A previous commit added an earlier break condition here, which is fine if
we're using non-local task_work as it'll be run on return to userspace.
However, if DEFER_TASKRUN is used, then we could be leaving local
task_work that is ready to process in the ctx list until next time that
we enter the kernel to wait for events.

Move the break condition to _after_ we have run task_work.

commit 9b43ef3d52532a0175ed6654618f7db61d390d2e upstream.

IOPOLL request should never return IOU_OK, so the following iopoll
queueing check in io_issue_sqe() after getting IOU_OK doesn't make any
sense as would never turn true. Let's optimise on that and return a bit
earlier. It's also much more resilient to potential bugs from
mischieving iopoll implementations.

<title>io_uring: fix mutex_unlock with unreferenced ctx</title>

Callers of mutex_unlock() have to make sure that the mutex stays alive
for the whole duration of the function call. For io_uring that means
that the following pattern is not valid unless we ensure that the
context outlives the mutex_unlock() call.

mutex_lock(&amp;ctx-&gt;uring_lock);
req_put(req); // typically via io_req_task_submit()
mutex_unlock(&amp;ctx-&gt;uring_lock);

Most contexts are fine: io-wq pins requests, syscalls hold the file,
task works are taking ctx references and so on. However, the task work
fallback path doesn't follow the rule.

<title>io_uring: use fget/fput consistently</title>

Normally within a syscall it's fine to use fdget/fdput for grabbing a
file from the file table, and it's fine within io_uring as well. We do
that via io_uring_enter(2), io_uring_register(2), and then also for
cancel which is invoked from the latter. io_uring cannot close its own
file descriptors as that is explicitly rejected, and for the cancel
side of things, the file itself is just used as a lookup cookie.

However, it is more prudent to ensure that full references are always
grabbed. For anything threaded, either explicitly in the application
itself or through use of the io-wq worker threads, this is what happens
anyway. Generalize it and use fget/fput throughout.

Also see the below link for more details.

mmap_lock nests under uring_lock out of necessity, as we may be doing
user copies with uring_lock held. However, for mmap of provided buffer
rings, we attempt to grab uring_lock with mmap_lock already held from
do_mmap(). This makes lockdep, rightfully, complain:

From that mmap(2) path, we really just need to ensure that the buffer
list doesn't go away from underneath us. For the lower indexed entries,
they never go away until the ring is freed and we can always sanely
reference those as long as the caller has a file reference. For the
higher indexed ones in our xarray, we just need to ensure that the
buffer list remains valid while we return the address of it.

Free the higher indexed io_buffer_list entries via RCU. With that we can
avoid needing -&gt;uring_lock inside mmap(2), and simply hold the RCU read
lock around the buffer list lookup and address check.

To ensure that the arrayed lookup either returns a valid fully formulated
entry via RCU lookup, add an 'is_ready' flag that we access with store
and release memory ordering. This isn't needed for the xarray lookups,
but doesn't hurt either. Since this isn't a fast path, retain it across
both types. Similarly, for the allocated array inside the ctx, ensure
we use the proper load/acquire as setup could in theory be running in
parallel with mmap.

While in there, add a few lockdep checks for documentation purposes.

If a provided buffer ring is setup with IOU_PBUF_RING_MMAP, then the
kernel allocates the memory for it and the application is expected to
mmap(2) this memory. However, io_uring uses remap_pfn_range() for this
operation, so we cannot rely on normal munmap/release on freeing them
for us.

Stash an io_buf_free entry away for each of these, if any, and provide
a helper to free them post -&gt;release().

If a provided buffer ring is setup with IOU_PBUF_RING_MMAP, then the
kernel allocates the memory for it and the application is expected to
mmap(2) this memory. However, io_uring uses remap_pfn_range() for this
operation, so we cannot rely on normal munmap/release on freeing them
for us.

Stash an io_buf_free entry away for each of these, if any, and provide
a helper to free them post -&gt;release().

In preparation for using these helpers, make them non-static and add
them to our internal header.

This flag only applies to the SQ and CQ rings, it's perfectly valid
to use a mmap approach for the provided ring buffers. Move the
check into where it belongs.

<title>io_uring: don't allow discontig pages for IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP</title>

io_sqes_map() is used rather than io_mem_alloc(), if the application
passes in memory for mapping rather than have the kernel allocate it and
then mmap(2) the ranges. This then calls __io_uaddr_map() to perform the
page mapping and pinning, which checks if we end up with the same pages,
if more than one page is mapped. But this check is incorrect and only
checks if the first and last pages are the same, where it really should
be checking if the mapped pages are contigous. This allows mapping a
single normal page, or a huge page range.

Down the line we can add support for remapping pages to be virtually
contigous, which is really all that io_uring cares about.
