2023-10-31ext4: properly sync file size update after O_SYNC direct IOJan Kara
Gao Xiang has reported that on ext4 O_SYNC direct IO does not properly sync file size update and thus if we crash at unfortunate moment, the file can have smaller size although O_SYNC IO has reported successful completion. The problem happens because update of on-disk inode size is handled in ext4_dio_write_iter() *after* iomap_dio_rw() (and thus dio_complete() in particular) has returned and generic_file_sync() gets called by dio_complete(). Fix the problem by handling on-disk inode size update directly in our ->end_io completion handler.

2023-10-31ext4: fix racy may inline data check in dio writeBrian Foster
syzbot reports that the following warning from ext4_iomap_begin() triggers as of the commit referenced below: if (WARN_ON_ONCE(ext4_has_inline_data(inode))) return -ERANGE; This occurs during a dio write, which is never expected to encounter an inode with inline data. To enforce this behavior, ext4_dio_write_iter() checks the current inline state of the inode and clears the MAY_INLINE_DATA state flag to either fall back to buffered writes, or enforce that any other writers in progress on the inode are not allowed to create inline data. The problem is that the check for existing inline data and the state flag can span a lock cycle. For example, if the ilock is originally locked shared and subsequently upgraded to exclusive, another writer may have reacquired the lock and created inline data before the dio write task acquires the lock and proceeds. The commit referenced below loosens the lock requirements to allow some forms of unaligned dio writes to occur under shared lock, but AFAICT the inline data check was technically already racy for any dio write that would have involved a lock cycle. Regardless, lift clearing of the state bit to the same lock critical section that checks for preexisting inline data on the inode to close the race.

2023-10-31dm crypt: account large pages in cc->n_allocated_pagesMikulas Patocka
The commit 5054e778fcd9c ("dm crypt: allocate compound pages if possible") changed dm-crypt to use compound pages to improve performance. Unfortunately, there was an oversight: the allocation of compound pages was not accounted at all. Normal pages are accounted in a percpu counter cc->n_allocated_pages and dm-crypt is limited to allocate at most 2% of memory. Because compound pages were not accounted at all, dm-crypt could allocate memory over the 2% limit. Fix this by adding the accounting of compound pages, so that memory consumption of dm-crypt is properly limited.

2023-10-31dm error: Add support for zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal
dm-error is used in several test cases in the xfstests test suite to check the handling of IO errors in file systems. However, with several file systems getting native support for zoned block devices (e.g. btrfs and f2fs), dm-error's lack of zoned block device support creates problems as the file system attempts executing zone commands (e.g. a zone append operation) against a dm-error non-zoned block device, which causes various issues in the block layer (e.g. WARN_ON triggers). This commit adds supports for zoned block devices to dm-error, allowing a DM device table containing an error target to be exposed as a zoned block device (if all targets have a compatible zoned model support and mapping). This is done as follows: 1) Allow passing 2 arguments to an error target, similar to dm-linear: a backing device and a start sector. These arguments are optional and dm-error retains its characteristics if the arguments are not specified. 2) Implement the iterate_devices method so that dm-core can normally check the zone support and restrictions (e.g. zone alignment of the targets). When the backing device arguments are not specified, the iterate_devices method never calls the fn() argument. When no backing device is specified, as before, we assume that the DM device is not zoned. When the backing device arguments are specified, the zoned model of the DM device will depend on the backing device type: - If the backing device is zoned and its model and mapping is compatible with other targets of the device, the resulting device will be zoned, with the dm-error mapped portion always returning errors (similar to the default non-zoned case). - If the backing device is not zoned, then the DM device will not be either. This zone support for dm-error requires the definition of a functional report_zones operation so that dm_revalidate_zones() can operate correctly and resources for emulating zone append operations initialized. This is necessary for cases where dm-error is used to partially map a device and have an overall correct handling of zone append. This means that dm-error does not fail report zones operations. Two changes that are not obvious are included to avoid issues: 1) dm_table_supports_zoned_model() is changed to directly check if the backing device of a wildcard target (= dm-error target) is zoned. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to catch the invalid setup of dm-error without a backing device (non zoned case) being combined with zoned targets. 2) dm_table_supports_dax() is modified to return false if the wildcard target is found. Otherwise, when dm-error is set without a backing device, we end up with a NULL pointer dereference in set_dax_synchronous (dax_dev is NULL). This is consistent with the current behavior because dm_table_supports_dax() always returned false for targets that do not define the iterate_devices method.

2023-10-31dm delay: for short delays, use kthread instead of timers and wqChristian Loehle
DM delay's current design of using timers and wq to realize the delays is insufficient for delays below ~50ms. This commit enhances the design to use a kthread to flush the expired delays, trading some CPU time (in some cases) for better delay accuracy and delays closer to what the user requested for smaller delays. The new design is chosen as long as all the delays are below 50ms. Since bios can't be completed in interrupt context using a kthread is probably the most reasonable way to approach this. Testing with echo "0 2097152 zero" | dmsetup create dm-zeros for i in $(seq 0 20); do echo "0 2097152 delay /dev/mapper/dm-zeros 0 $i" | dmsetup create dm-delay-${i}ms; done Some performance numbers for comparison, on beaglebone black (single core) CONFIG_HZ_1000=y: fio --name=1msread --rw=randread --bs=4k --runtime=60 --time_based \ --filename=/dev/mapper/dm-delay-1ms Theoretical maximum: 1000 IOPS Previous: 250 IOPS Kthread: 500 IOPS fio --name=10msread --rw=randread --bs=4k --runtime=60 --time_based \ --filename=/dev/mapper/dm-delay-10ms Theoretical maximum: 100 IOPS Previous: 45 IOPS Kthread: 50 IOPS fio --name=1mswrite --rw=randwrite --direct=1 --bs=4k --runtime=60 \ --time_based --filename=/dev/mapper/dm-delay-1ms Theoretical maximum: 1000 IOPS Previous: 498 IOPS Kthread: 1000 IOPS fio --name=10mswrite --rw=randwrite --direct=1 --bs=4k --runtime=60 \ --time_based --filename=/dev/mapper/dm-delay-10ms Theoretical maximum: 100 IOPS Previous: 90 IOPS Kthread: 100 IOPS (This one is just to prove the new design isn't impacting throughput, not really about delays): fio --name=10mswriteasync --rw=randwrite --direct=1 --bs=4k \ --runtime=60 --time_based --filename=/dev/mapper/dm-delay-10ms \ --numjobs=32 --iodepth=64 --ioengine=libaio --group_reporting Previous: 13.3k IOPS Kthread: 13.3k IOPS Signed-off-by: Christian Loehle <christian.loehle@arm.com> [Harshit: kthread_create error handling fix in delay_ctr] Signed-off-by: Harshit Mogalapalli <harshit.m.mogalapalli@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@kernel.org>

KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.7: - Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled. - Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to prevent using stale entries with the wrong memtype. - Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y, as there's zero reason to ignore guest PAT if the effective MTRR memtype is WB. This will also allow for future optimizations of handling guest MTRR updates for VMs with non-coherent DMA and the quirk enabled. - Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an invalid root when walking SPTEs.
2023-10-31IB/mlx5: Fix init stage error handling to avoid double free of same QP and UAFGeorge Kennedy

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.7: - Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs without forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory overhead. - Add IBPB and SBPB virtualization support. - Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1 second of creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to synchronize the vCPU's TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being set by userspace. - Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid generating an inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted between multiple TSC reads. - "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which complain about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select F/M/S combos. - Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes from userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can trigger spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest writes. - Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the dirty log without PML enabled. - Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as appropriate. - Use octal notation for file permissions through KVM x86. - Fix a handful of typo fixes and warts.

KVM x86 APIC changes for 6.7: - Purge VMX's posted interrupt descriptor *before* loading APIC state when handling KVM_SET_LAPIC. Purging the PID after loading APIC state results in lost APIC timer IRQs as the APIC timer can be armed as part of loading APIC state, i.e. can immediately pend an IRQ if the expiry is in the past. - Clear the ICR.BUSY bit when handling trap-like x2APIC writes. This avoids a WARN, due to KVM expecting the BUSY bit to be cleared when sending IPIs.

2023-10-31RDMA/mlx5: Fix mkey cache WQ flushMoshe Shemesh
The cited patch tries to ensure no pending works on the mkey cache workqueue by disabling adding new works and call flush_workqueue(). But this workqueue also has delayed works which might still be pending the delay time to be queued. Add cancel_delayed_work() for the delayed works which waits to be queued and then the flush_workqueue() will flush all works which are already queued and running.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chenhuacai/linux-loongson into HEAD LoongArch KVM changes for v6.7 Add LoongArch's KVM support. Loongson 3A5000/3A6000 supports hardware assisted virtualization. With cpu virtualization, there are separate hw-supported user mode and kernel mode in guest mode. With memory virtualization, there are two-level hw mmu table for guest mode and host mode. Also there is separate hw cpu timer with consant frequency in guest mode, so that vm can migrate between hosts with different freq. Currently, we are able to boot LoongArch Linux Guests. Few key aspects of KVM LoongArch added by this series are: 1. Enable kvm hardware function when kvm module is loaded. 2. Implement VM and vcpu related ioctl interface such as vcpu create, vcpu run etc. GET_ONE_REG/SET_ONE_REG ioctl commands are use to get general registers one by one. 3. Hardware access about MMU, timer and csr are emulated in kernel. 4. Hardwares such as mmio and iocsr device are emulated in user space such as IPI, irqchips, pci devices etc.

2023-10-31ima: detect changes to the backing overlay fileMimi Zohar
Commit 18b44bc5a672 ("ovl: Always reevaluate the file signature for IMA") forced signature re-evaulation on every file access. Instead of always re-evaluating the file's integrity, detect a change to the backing file, by comparing the cached file metadata with the backing file's metadata. Verifying just the i_version has not changed is insufficient. In addition save and compare the i_ino and s_dev as well.

Originally the secondary trusted keyring provided a keyring to which extra keys may be added, provided those keys were not blacklisted and were vouched for by a key built into the kernel or already in the secondary trusted keyring. On systems with the machine keyring configured, additional keys may also be vouched for by a key on the machine keyring.

2023-10-31erofs: fix erofs_insert_workgroup() lockref usageGao Xiang
As Linus pointed out [1], lockref_put_return() is fundamentally designed to be something that can fail. It behaves as a fastpath-only thing, and the failure case needs to be handled anyway. Actually, since the new pcluster was just allocated without being populated, it won't be accessed by others until it is inserted into XArray, so lockref helpers are actually unneeded here. Let's just set the proper reference count on initializing.

Traditionally linkers only did this for .bss and it was always the last segment. As a result, the kernel only handled this case when it was the last segment. We've had two recent cases where linkers were trying to use these kinds of segments for other reasons, and the were in the middle of the segment list. There was no good reason for the kernel not to support this, and the refactor actually ends up making things more readable too. - Enable namespaced binfmt_misc Christian Brauner has made it possible to use binfmt_misc with mount namespaces.
