<title>fuse: break infinite loop in fuse_fill_write_pages()</title>

<id>3ca8138f014a913f98e6ef40e939868e1e9ea876</id>
<content type='text'>
I got a report about unkillable task eating CPU. Further
investigation shows, that the problem is in the fuse_fill_write_pages()
function. If iov's first segment has zero length, we get an infinite
loop, because we never reach iov_iter_advance() call.

Fix this by calling iov_iter_advance() before repeating an attempt to
copy data from userspace.

A similar problem is described in 124d3b7041f ("fix writev regression:
pan hanging unkillable and un-straceable"). If zero-length segmend
is followed by segment with invalid address,
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() checks only first segment (zero-length),
iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic() skips it, fails at second and
returns zero -&gt; goto again without skipping zero-length segment.

Patch calls iov_iter_advance() before goto again: we'll skip zero-length
segment at second iteraction and iov_iter_fault_in_readable() will detect
invalid address.

Special thanks to Konstantin Khlebnikov, who helped a lot with the commit
description.

Instead of having users check for FL_POSIX or FL_FLOCK to call the correct
locks API function, use the check within locks_lock_inode_wait().  This
allows for some later cleanup.

Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:
 "This is the start of improving fuse scalability.

  An input queue and a processing queue is split out from the monolithic
  fuse connection, each of those having their own spinlock.  The end of
  the patchset adds the ability to clone a fuse connection.  This means,
  that instead of having to read/write requests/answers on a single fuse
  device fd, the fuse daemon can have multiple distinct file descriptors
  open.  Each of those can be used to receive requests and send answers,
  currently the only constraint is that a request must be answered on
  the same fd as it was read from.

  This can be extended further to allow binding a device clone to a
  specific CPU or NUMA node.

  Based on a patchset by Srinivas Eeda and Ashish Samant.  Thanks to

Use flags for representing the state in fuse_req.  This is needed since
req-&gt;list will be protected by different locks in different states, hence
we'll want the state itself to be split into distinct bits, each protected
with the relevant lock in that state.
