Daniel reports that when testing an http server that uses io_uring
to poll for incoming connections, sometimes it hard crashes. This is
due to an uninitialized list member for the io_uring request. Normally
this doesn't trigger and none of the test cases caught it.

We are using PAGE_SIZE as the unit to determine if the total len in
async_list has exceeded max_pages, it's not fair for smaller io sizes.
For example, if we are doing 1k-size io streams, we will never exceed
max_pages since len &gt;&gt;= PAGE_SHIFT always gets zero. So use original
bytes to make it more accurate.

Hrvoje reports that when a large fixed buffer is registered and IO is
being done to the latter pages of said buffer, the IO submission time
is much worse:

reading to the start of the buffer: 11238 ns
reading to the end of the buffer:   1039879 ns

In fact, it's worse by two orders of magnitude. The reason for that is
how io_uring figures out how to setup the iov_iter. We point the iter
at the first bvec, and then use iov_iter_advance() to fast-forward to
the offset within that buffer we need.

However, that is abysmally slow, as it entails iterating the bvecs
that we setup as part of buffer registration. There's really no need
to use this generic helper, as we know it's a BVEC type iterator, and
we also know that each bvec is PAGE_SIZE in size, apart from possibly
the first and last. Hence we can just use a shift on the offset to
find the right index, and then adjust the iov_iter appropriately.
After this fix, the timings are:

reading to the start of the buffer: 10135 ns
reading to the end of the buffer:   1377 ns

Or about an 755x improvement for the tail page.

<title>io_uring: add a memory barrier before atomic_read</title>

There is a hang issue while using fio to do some basic test. The issue
can be easily reproduced using the below script:

        while true
        do
                fio  --ioengine=io_uring  -rw=write -bs=4k -numjobs=1 \
                     -size=1G -iodepth=64 -name=uring   --filename=/dev/zero
        done

After several minutes (or more), fio would block at
io_uring_enter-&gt;io_cqring_wait in order to waiting for previously
committed sqes to be completed and can't return to user anymore until
we send a SIGTERM to fio. After receiving SIGTERM, fio hangs at
io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill with a backtrace like this:

The reason is that we had added a req to ctx-&gt;pending_async at the very
end, but it didn't get a chance to be processed. How could this happen?

          list_add_tail()
          atomic_read() &lt;&lt; 0 or 1?

As atomic_ops.rst states, atomic_read does not guarantee that the
runtime modification by any other thread is visible yet, so we must take
care of that with a proper implicit or explicit memory barrier.

This issue was detected with the help of Jackie's &lt;liuyun01@kylinos.cn&gt;

task-&gt;saved_sigmask and -&gt;restore_sigmask are only used in the ret-from-
syscall paths.  This means that set_user_sigmask() can save -&gt;blocked in
-&gt;saved_sigmask and do set_restore_sigmask() to indicate that -&gt;blocked
was modified.

This way the callers do not need 2 sigset_t's passed to set/restore and
restore_user_sigmask() renamed to restore_saved_sigmask_unless() turns
into the trivial helper which just calls restore_saved_sigmask().

task-&gt;saved_sigmask and -&gt;restore_sigmask are only used in the ret-from-
syscall paths.  This means that set_user_sigmask() can save -&gt;blocked in
-&gt;saved_sigmask and do set_restore_sigmask() to indicate that -&gt;blocked
was modified.

This way the callers do not need 2 sigset_t's passed to set/restore and
restore_user_sigmask() renamed to restore_saved_sigmask_unless() turns
into the trivial helper which just calls restore_saved_sigmask().

<title>io_uring: fix counter inc/dec mismatch in async_list</title>

We could queue a work for each req in defer and link list without
increasing async_list-&gt;cnt, so we shouldn't decrease it while exiting
from workqueue as well if we didn't process the req in async list.

Thanks to Jens Axboe &lt;axboe@kernel.dk&gt; for his guidance.

sq-&gt;cached_sq_head and cq-&gt;cached_cq_tail are both unsigned int. If
cached_sq_head overflows before cached_cq_tail, then we may miss a
barrier req. As cached_cq_tail always follows cached_sq_head, the NQ
should be enough.

Pull percpu updates from Dennis Zhou:
 "This includes changes to let percpu_ref release the backing percpu
  memory earlier after it has been switched to atomic in cases where the
  percpu ref is not revived.

  This will help recycle percpu memory earlier in cases where the
  refcounts are pinned for prolonged periods of time"

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains:

   - Support for recvmsg/sendmsg as first class opcodes.

     I don't envision going much further down this path, as there are
     plans in progress to support potentially any system call in an
     async fashion through io_uring. But I think it does make sense to
     have certain core ops available directly, especially those that can
     support a "try this non-blocking" flag/mode. (me)

   - Handle generic short reads automatically.

     This can happen fairly easily if parts of the buffered read is
     cached. Since the application needs to issue another request for
     the remainder, just do this internally and save kernel/user
     roundtrip while providing a nicer more robust API. (me)

   - Support for linked SQEs.

     This allows SQEs to depend on each other, enabling an application
     to eg queue a read-from-this-file,write-to-that-file pair. (me)

   - Fix race in stopping SQ thread (Jackie)"
