commit 475a8d30371604a6363da8e304a608a5959afc40 upstream.

Follow the non-ringed pbuf struct io_buffer_list allocations and account
it against the memcg. There is low chance of that being an actual
problem as ring provided buffer should either pin user memory or
allocate it, which is already accounted.

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.

Commit ae6a888a4357131c01d85f4c91fb32552dd0bf70 upstream.

A previous commit improved how !FMODE_NOWAIT is dealt with, but
inadvertently negated a check whilst doing so. This caused -EAGAIN to be
returned from reading files with O_NONBLOCK set. Fix up the check for
REQ_F_SUPPORT_NOWAIT.

Commit f7c9134385331c5ef36252895130aa01a92de907 upstream.

The checking for whether or not io_uring can do a non-blocking read or
write attempt is gated on FMODE_NOWAIT. However, if the file is
pollable, it's feasible to just check if it's currently in a state in
which it can sanely receive or send _some_ data.

This avoids unnecessary io-wq punts, and repeated worthless retries
before doing that punt, by assuming that some data can get delivered
or received if poll tells us that is true. It also allows multishot
reads to properly work with these types of files, enabling a bit of
a cleanup of the logic that:

c9d952b9103b ("io_uring/rw: fix cflags posting for single issue multishot read")

had to put in place.

Commit 95041b93e90a06bb613ec4bef9cd4d61570f68e4 upstream.

This adds a flag to avoid dipping dereferencing file and then f_op to
figure out if the file has a poll handler defined or not. We generally
call this at least twice for networked workloads, and if using ring
provided buffers, we do it on every buffer selection. Particularly the
latter is troublesome, as it's otherwise a very fast operation.

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

[ Upstream commit f024d3a8ded0d8d2129ae123d7a5305c29ca44ce ]

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into that very instant and may of course be outdated by the time they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.
