commit f979c20547e72568e3c793bc92c7522bc3166246 upstream.

Account drain allocations against memcg. It's not a big problem as each
such allocation is paired with a request, which is accounted, but it's
nicer to follow the limits more closely.

[ Upstream commit a7d755ed9ce9738af3db602eb29d32774a180bc7 ]

Leaving the CQ critical section in the middle of a overflow flushing
can cause cqe reordering since the cache cq pointers are reset and any
new cqe emitters that might get called in between are not going to be
forced into io_cqe_cache_refill().

syzbot complains about the cached sq head read, and it's totally right.
But we don't need to care, it's just reading fdinfo, and reading the
CQ or SQ tail/head entries are known racy in that they are just a view
into that very instant and may of course be outdated by the time they
are reported.

Annotate both the SQ head and CQ tail read with data_race() to avoid
this syzbot complaint.

Commit 687b2bae0efff9b25e071737d6af5004e6e35af5 upstream.

Multishot normally uses io_req_post_cqe() to post completions, but when
stopping it, it may finish up with a deferred completion. This is fine,
except if another multishot event triggers before the deferred completions
get flushed. If this occurs, then CQEs may get reordered in the CQ ring,
and cause confusion on the application side.

When multishot posting via io_req_post_cqe(), flush any pending deferred
completions first, if any.

<title>io_uring: always arm linked timeouts prior to issue</title>

Commit b53e523261bf058ea4a518b482222e7a277b186b upstream.

There are a few spots where linked timeouts are armed, and not all of
them adhere to the pre-arm, attempt issue, post-arm pattern. This can
be problematic if the linked request returns that it will trigger a
callback later, and does so before the linked timeout is fully armed.

Consolidate all the linked timeout handling into __io_issue_sqe(),
rather than have it spread throughout the various issue entry points.

Commit f6a89bf5278d6e15016a736db67043560d1b50d5 upstream.

REQ_F_APOLL_MULTISHOT doesn't guarantee it's executed from the multishot
context, so a multishot accept may get executed inline, fail
io_req_post_cqe(), and ask the core code to kill the request with
-ECANCELED by returning IOU_STOP_MULTISHOT even when a socket has been
accepted and installed.

No upstream patch exists for this issue, as it was introduced by
a stable backport.

A previous backport relied on other code changes in the io_uring file
table and resource node handling, which means that sometimes a resource
node switch can get missed. For 6.1-stable, that code is still in
io_install_fixed_file(), so ensure we fall-through to that case for the
success path too.

Commit 43eef70e7e2ac74e7767731dd806720c7fb5e010 upstream.

io_pages_unmap() is a bit tricky in trying to figure whether the pages
were previously vmap'ed or not. In particular If there is juts one page
it belives there is no need to vunmap. Paired io_pages_map(), however,
could've failed io_mem_alloc_compound() and attempted to
io_mem_alloc_single(), which does vmap, and that leads to unpaired vmap.

The solution is to fail if io_mem_alloc_compound() can't allocate a
single page. That's the easiest way to deal with it, and those two
functions are getting removed soon, so no need to overcomplicate it.

io_pages_unmap() is a bit tricky in trying to figure whether the pages
were previously vmap'ed or not. In particular If there is juts one page
it belives there is no need to vunmap. Paired io_pages_map(), however,
could've failed io_mem_alloc_compound() and attempted to
io_mem_alloc_single(), which does vmap, and that leads to unpaired vmap.

The solution is to fail if io_mem_alloc_compound() can't allocate a
single page. That's the easiest way to deal with it, and those two
functions are getting removed soon, so no need to overcomplicate it.
