Currently, all three chunk list encoders each use a portion of the
one rl_segments array in rpcrdma_req. This is because the MWs for
each chunk list were preserved in rl_segments so that ro_unmap could
find and invalidate them after the RPC was complete.
However, now that MWs are placed on a per-req linked list as they
are registered, there is no longer any information in rpcrdma_mr_seg
that is shared between ro_map and ro_unmap_{sync,safe}, and thus
nothing in rl_segments needs to be preserved after
rpcrdma_marshal_req is complete.
Thus the rl_segments array can be used now just for the needs of
each rpcrdma_convert_iovs call. Once each chunk list is encoded, the
next chunk list encoder is free to re-use all of rl_segments.
This means all three chunk lists in one RPC request can now each
encode a full size data payload with no increase in the size of
rl_segments.
This is a key requirement for Kerberos support, since both the Call
and Reply for a single RPC transaction are conveyed via Long
messages (RDMA Read/Write). Both can be large.

Instead of placing registered MWs sparsely into the rl_segments
array, place these MWs on a per-req list.
ro_unmap_{sync,safe} can then simply pull those MWs off the list
instead of walking through the array.
This change significantly reduces the size of struct rpcrdma_req
by removing nsegs and rl_mw from every array element.
As an additional clean-up, chunk co-ordinates are returned in the
"*mw" output argument so they are no longer needed in every
array element.

Frequent MR list exhaustion can impact I/O throughput, so enough MRs
are always created during transport set-up to prevent running out.
This means more MRs are created than most workloads need.
Commit 94f58c58c0b4 ("xprtrdma: Allow Read list and Reply chunk
simultaneously") introduced support for sending two chunk lists per
RPC, which consumes more MRs per RPC.
Instead of trying to provision more MRs, introduce a mechanism for
allocating MRs on demand. A few MRs are allocated during transport
set-up to kick things off.
This significantly reduces the average number of MRs per transport
while allowing the MR count to grow for workloads or devices that
need more MRs.
FRWR with mlx4 allocated almost 400 MRs per transport before this
patch. Now it starts with 32.

Commit c93c62231cf5 ("xprtrdma: Disconnect on registration failure")
added a disconnect for some RPC marshaling failures. This is needed
only in a handful of cases, but it was triggering for simple stuff
like temporary resource shortages. Try to straighten this out.
Fix up the lower layers so they don't return -ENOMEM or other error
codes that the RPC client's FSM doesn't explicitly recognize.
Also fix up the places in the send_request path that do want a
disconnect. For example, when ib_post_send or ib_post_recv fail,
this is a sign that there is a send or receive queue resource
miscalculation. That should be rare, and is a sign of a software
bug. But xprtrdma can recover: disconnect to reset the transport and
start over.

Not having an rpcrdma_rep at call_allocate time can be a problem.
It means that send_request can't post a receive buffer to catch
the RPC's reply. Possible consequences are RPC timeouts or even
transport deadlock.
Instead of allowing an RPC to proceed if an rpcrdma_rep is
not available, return NULL to force call_allocate to wait and
try again.

No HCA or RNIC in the kernel tree requires the use of ALLPHYSICAL.
ALLPHYSICAL advertises in the clear on the network fabric an R_key
that is good for all of the client's memory. No known exploit
exists, but theoretically any user on the server can use that R_key
on the client's QP to read or update any part of the client's memory.
ALLPHYSICAL exposes the client to server bugs, including:
o base/bounds errors causing data outside the i/o buffer to be
accessed
o RDMA access after reply causing data corruption and/or integrity
fail
ALLPHYSICAL can't protect application memory regions from server
update after a local signal or soft timeout has terminated an RPC.
ALLPHYSICAL chunks are no larger than a page. Special cases to
handle small chunks and long chunk lists have been a source of
implementation complexity and bugs.

I found that commit ead3f26e359e ("xprtrdma: Add ro_unmap_safe
memreg method"), which introduces ro_unmap_safe, never wired up the
FMR recovery worker.
The FMR and FRWR recovery work queues both do the same thing.
Instead of setting up separate individual work queues for this,
schedule a delayed worker to deal with them, since recovering MRs is
not performance-critical.

The use of a scatterlist for handling DMA mapping and unmapping
was recently introduced in frwr_ops.c in commit 4143f34e01e9
("xprtrdma: Port to new memory registration API"). That commit did
not make a similar update to xprtrdma's FMR support because the
core ib_map_phys_fmr() and ib_unmap_fmr() APIs have not been changed
to take a scatterlist argument.
However, FMR still needs to do DMA mapping and unmapping. It appears
that RDS, for example, uses a scatterlist for this, then builds the
DMA addr array for the ib_map_phys_fmr call separately. I see that
SRP also utilizes a scatterlist for DMA mapping. xprtrdma can do
something similar.
This modernization is used immediately to properly defer DMA
unmapping during fmr_unmap_safe (a FIXME). It separates the DMA
unmapping coordinates from the rl_segments array. This array, being
part of an rpcrdma_req, is always re-used immediately when an RPC
exits. A scatterlist is allocated in memory independent of the
rl_segments array, so it can be preserved indefinitely (ie, until
the MR invalidation and DMA unmapping can actually be done by a
worker thread).
The FRWR and FMR DMA mapping code are slightly different from each
other now, and will diverge further when the "Check for holes" logic
can be removed from FRWR (support for SG_GAP MRs). So I chose not to
create helpers for the common-looking code.

Clean up: FMR is about to replace the rpcrdma_map_one code with
scatterlists. Move the scatterlist fields out of the FRWR-specific
union and into the generic part of rpcrdma_mw.
One minor change: -EIO is now returned if FRWR registration fails.
The RPC is terminated immediately, since the problem is likely due
to a software bug, thus retrying likely won't help.

ib_unmap_fmr() takes a list of FMRs to unmap. However, it does not
remove the FMRs from this list as it processes them. Other
ib_unmap_fmr() call sites are careful to remove FMRs from the list
after ib_unmap_fmr() returns.
Since commit 7c7a5390dc6c8 ("xprtrdma: Add ro_unmap_sync method for FMR")
fmr_op_unmap_sync passes more than one FMR to ib_unmap_fmr(), but
it didn't bother to remove the FMRs from that list once the call was
complete.
I've noticed some instability that could be related to list
tangling by the new fmr_op_unmap_sync() logic. In an abundance
of caution, add some defensive logic to clean up properly after
ib_unmap_fmr().

The well-spotted fallocate undo fix is good in most cases, but not when
fallocate failed on the very first page. index 0 then passes lend -1
to shmem_undo_range(), and that has two bad effects: (a) that it will
undo every fallocation throughout the file, unrestricted by the current
range; but more importantly (b) it can cause the undo to hang, because
lend -1 is treated as truncation, which makes it keep on retrying until
every page has gone, but those already fully instantiated will never go
away. Big thank you to xfstests generic/269 which demonstrates this.

xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() needs to track whether a transaction is
open. For XS_TRANSACTION_START messages it calls transaction_start()
and for XS_TRANSACTION_END messages it calls transaction_end().
If sending an XS_TRANSACTION_START message fails or responds with an
an error, the transaction is not open and transaction_end() must be
called.
If sending an XS_TRANSACTION_END message fails, the transaction is
still open, but if an error response is returned the transaction is
closed.
Commit 027bd7e89906 ("xen/xenbus: Avoid synchronous wait on XenBus
stalling shutdown/restart") introduced a regression where failed
XS_TRANSACTION_START messages were leaving the transaction open. This
can cause problems with suspend (and migration) as all transactions
must be closed before suspending.
It appears that the problematic change was added accidentally, so just
remove it.

This reverts commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87.
It fixed a local root exploit but also introduced a dependency on
the lower file system implementing an mmap operation just to open a file,
which is a bit of a heavy hammer. The right fix is to have mmap depend
on the existence of the mmap handler instead.

Pull block IO fixes from Jens Axboe:
"Three small fixes that have been queued up and tested for this series:
- A bug fix for xen-blkfront from Bob Liu, fixing an issue with
incomplete requests during migration.
- A fix for an ancient issue in retrieving the IO priority of a
different PID than self, preventing that task from going away while
we access it. From Omar.
- A writeback fix from Tahsin, fixing a case where we'd call ihold()
with a zero ref count inode"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
block: fix use-after-free in sys_ioprio_get()
writeback: inode cgroup wb switch should not call ihold()
xen-blkfront: save uncompleted reqs in blkfront_resume()

If we take an exception while at EL1, the exception handler inherits
the original context's addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO values. To be consistent
always reset addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO on (re-)entry to EL1. This
prevents accidental re-use of the original context's addr_limit.
Based on a similar patch for arm from Russell King.

The following commit:
66eb579e66ec ("perf: allow for PMU-specific event filtering")
added the pmu::filter_match() callback. This was intended to
avoid HW constraints on events from resulting in extremely
pessimistic scheduling.
However, pmu::filter_match() is only called for the leader of each event
group. When the leader is a SW event, we do not filter the groups, and
may fail at pmu::add() time, and when this happens we'll give up on
scheduling any event groups later in the list until they are rotated
ahead of the failing group.
This can result in extremely sub-optimal event scheduling behaviour,
e.g. if running the following on a big.LITTLE platform:
$ taskset -c 0 ./perf stat \
-e 'a57{context-switches,armv8_cortex_a57/config=0x11/}' \
-e 'a53{context-switches,armv8_cortex_a53/config=0x11/}' \
ls
<not counted> context-switches (0.00%)
<not counted> armv8_cortex_a57/config=0x11/ (0.00%)
24 context-switches (37.36%)
57589154 armv8_cortex_a53/config=0x11/ (37.36%)
Here the 'a53' event group was always eligible to be scheduled, but
the 'a57' group never eligible to be scheduled, as the task was always
affine to a Cortex-A53 CPU. The SW (group leader) event in the 'a57'
group was eligible, but the HW event failed at pmu::add() time,
resulting in ctx_flexible_sched_in giving up on scheduling further
groups with HW events.
One way of avoiding this is to check pmu::filter_match() on siblings
as well as the group leader. If any of these fail their
pmu::filter_match() call, we must skip the entire group before
attempting to add any events.
