Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups
  which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found
  along the way.

  The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals
  that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from
  complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing
  userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops
  to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all
  architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on
  the stack.

  Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task
  are the big successes for dead code removal this round.

  A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues
  reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I
  simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes
  they were fixing.

  There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I
  dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with
  something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some
  rebasing.

  Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls
  to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of
  struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the
  pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The
  flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is
  removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with
  signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed.

  There are several loosely related changes included because I am
  cleaning up and if I don't include them they will probably get lost.

  The original postings of these changes can be found at:

  I trimmed back the last set of changes to only the obviously correct
  once. Simply because there was less time for review than I had hoped"

lockd: use svc_set_num_threads() for thread start and stop

2021-12-13T18:42:58+00:00

svc_set_num_threads() does everything that lockd_start_svc() does, except
set sv_maxconn.  It also (when passed 0) finds the threads and
stops them with kthread_stop().

So move the setting for sv_maxconn, and use svc_set_num_thread()

We now don't need nlmsvc_task.

Now that we use svc_set_num_threads() it makes sense to set svo_module.
This request that the thread exists with module_put_and_exit().
Also fix the documentation for svo_module to make this explicit.

svc_prepare_thread is now only used where it is defined, so it can be
made static.

SUNRPC: move the pool_map definitions (back) into svc.c

2021-12-13T18:42:57+00:00

These definitions are not used outside of svc.c, and there is no
evidence that they ever have been.  So move them into svc.c
and make the declarations 'static'.

SUNRPC: discard svo_setup and rename svc_set_num_threads_sync()

2021-12-13T18:42:53+00:00

The ->svo_setup callback serves no purpose.  It is always called from
within the same module that chooses which callback is needed.  So
discard it and call the relevant function directly.

Now that svc_set_num_threads() is no longer used remove it and rename
svc_set_num_threads_sync() to remove the "_sync" suffix.

NFSD: Make it possible to use svc_set_num_threads_sync

2021-12-13T18:42:53+00:00

nfsd cannot currently use svc_set_num_threads_sync.  It instead
uses svc_set_num_threads which does *not* wait for threads to all
exit, and has a separate mechanism (nfsd_shutdown_complete) to wait
for completion.

The reason that nfsd is unlike other services is that nfsd threads can
exit separately from svc_set_num_threads being called - they die on
receipt of SIGKILL.  Also, when the last thread exits, the service must
be shut down (sockets closed).

For this, the nfsd_mutex needs to be taken, and as that mutex needs to
be held while svc_set_num_threads is called, the one cannot wait for
the other.

This patch changes the nfsd thread so that it can drop the ref on the
service without blocking on nfsd_mutex, so that svc_set_num_threads_sync
can be used:
 - if it can drop a non-last reference, it does that.  This does not
   trigger shutdown and does not require a mutex.  This will likely
   happen for all but the last thread signalled, and for all threads
   being shut down by nfsd_shutdown_threads()
 - if it can get the mutex without blocking (trylock), it does that
   and then drops the reference.  This will likely happen for the
   last thread killed by SIGKILL
 - Otherwise there might be an unrelated task holding the mutex,
   possibly in another network namespace, or nfsd_shutdown_threads()
   might be just about to get a reference on the service, after which
   we can drop ours safely.
   We cannot conveniently get wakeup notifications on these events,
   and we are unlikely to need to, so we sleep briefly and check again.

With this we can discard nfsd_shutdown_complete and
nfsd_complete_shutdown(), and switch to svc_set_num_threads_sync.

SUNRPC: stop using ->sv_nrthreads as a refcount

2021-12-13T18:42:51+00:00

The use of sv_nrthreads as a general refcount results in clumsy code, as
is seen by various comments needed to explain the situation.

This patch introduces a 'struct kref' and uses that for reference
counting, leaving sv_nrthreads to be a pure count of threads.  The kref
is managed particularly in svc_get() and svc_put(), and also nfsd_put();

svc_destroy() now takes a pointer to the embedded kref, rather than to
the serv.

nfsd allows the svc_serv to exist with ->sv_nrhtreads being zero.  This
happens when a transport is created before the first thread is started.
To support this, a 'keep_active' flag is introduced which holds a ref on
the svc_serv.  This is set when any listening socket is successfully
added (unless there are running threads), and cleared when the number of
threads is set.  So when the last thread exits, the nfs_serv will be
destroyed.
The use of 'keep_active' replaces previous code which checked if there
were any permanent sockets.

We no longer clear ->rq_server when nfsd() exits.  This was done
to prevent svc_exit_thread() from calling svc_destroy().
Instead we take an extra reference to the svc_serv to prevent
svc_destroy() from being called.

SUNRPC/NFSD: clean up get/put functions.

2021-12-13T18:42:50+00:00

svc_destroy() is poorly named - it doesn't necessarily destroy the svc,
it might just reduce the ref count.
nfsd_destroy() is poorly named for the same reason.

This patch:
 - removes the refcount functionality from svc_destroy(), moving it to
   a new svc_put().  Almost all previous callers of svc_destroy() now
   call svc_put().
 - renames nfsd_destroy() to nfsd_put() and improves the code, using
   the new svc_destroy() rather than svc_put()
 - removes a few comments that explain the important for balanced
   get/put calls.  This should be obvious.

The only non-trivial part of this is that svc_destroy() would call
svc_sock_update() on a non-final decrement.  It can no longer do that,
and svc_put() isn't really a good place of it.  This call is now made
from svc_exit_thread() which seems like a good place.  This makes the
call *before* sv_nrthreads is decremented rather than after.  This
is not particularly important as the call just sets a flag which
causes sv_nrthreads set be checked later.  A subsequent patch will
improve the ordering.

SUNRPC: change svc_get() to return the svc.

2021-12-13T18:42:50+00:00

It is common for 'get' functions to return the object that was 'got',
and there are a couple of places where users of svc_get() would be a
little simpler if svc_get() did that.

Make it so.

SUNRPC: Change return value type of .pc_encode

2021-10-13T15:34:49+00:00

Returning an undecorated integer is an age-old trope, but it's
not clear (even to previous experts in this code) that the only
valid return values are 1 and 0. These functions do not return
a negative errno, rpc_stat value, or a positive length.

Document there are only two valid return values by having
.pc_encode return only true or false.
