Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs,
xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant
filesystems.
The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per
jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache.
Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support
a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp
granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps
(e.g., backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve
the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.
This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are
actively queried.
This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that
something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag
is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a
fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.
As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime
must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so
only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.
Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included:
- Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime
together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all
maintainers provided necessary Acks.
- Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all
callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now
gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented
as requiring accessors.
- Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a
sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request
mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in.
- Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now
parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers.
- Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it
removing a bunch of open-coding"

Pull filesystem freezing updates from Darrick Wong:
New code for 6.6:
* Allow the kernel to initiate a freeze of a filesystem. The kernel
and userspace can both hold a freeze on a filesystem at the same
time; the freeze is not lifted until /both/ holders lift it. This
will enable us to fix a longstanding bug in XFS online fsck.

Recent rework moved block device closing out of sb->put_super() and into
sb->kill_sb() to avoid deadlocks as s_umount is held in put_super() and
blkdev_put() can end up taking s_umount again.
That means we need to move the removal of the superblock from @fs_supers
out of generic_shutdown_super() and into deactivate_locked_super() to
ensure that concurrent mounters don't fail to open block devices that
are still in use because blkdev_put() in sb->kill_sb() hasn't been
called yet.
We can now do this as we can make iterators through @fs_super and
@super_blocks wait without holding s_umount. Concurrent mounts will wait
until a dying superblock is fully dead so until sb->kill_sb() has been
called and SB_DEAD been set. Concurrent iterators can already discard
any SB_DYING superblock.

Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new
superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has
intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this.
Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the
new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block
level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount.
Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation")
ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior
to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount
must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking
violations.
This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over
@super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the
superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to
open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such
iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until
SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization
failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}().
If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting
on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for
quite a while.
It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait
on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch
implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep
until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded.
This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and
@super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

mitigate a false sharing.
When running UnixBench/Shell Scripts, we observed high false sharing for
accessing i_mmap against i_mmap_rwsem.
UnixBench/Shell Scripts are typical load/execute command test scenarios,
which concurrently launch->execute->exit a lot of shell commands. A lot
of processes invoke vma_interval_tree_remove which touch "i_mmap", the
call stack:
----vma_interval_tree_remove
|----unlink_file_vma
| free_pgtables
| |----exit_mmap
| | mmput
| | |----begin_new_exec
| | | load_elf_binary
| | | bprm_execve
Meanwhile, there are a lot of processes touch 'i_mmap_rwsem' to acquire
the semaphore in order to access 'i_mmap'. In existing 'address_space'
layout, 'i_mmap' and 'i_mmap_rwsem' are in the same cacheline.
The patch places the i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem in separate cache lines to
avoid this false sharing problem.
With this patch, based on kernel v6.4.0, on Intel Sapphire Rapids
112C/224T platform, the score improves by ~5.3%. And perf c2c tool shows
the false sharing is resolved as expected, the symbol
vma_interval_tree_remove disappeared in cache line 0 after this change.

The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime

Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Later patches will convert individual filesystems to use the new
infrastructure.

In future patches we're going to change how the ctime is updated
to keep track of when it has been queried. The way that the update_time
operation works (and a lot of its callers) make this difficult, since
they grab a timestamp early and then pass it down to eventually be
copied into the inode.
All of the existing update_time callers pass in the result of
current_time() in some fashion. Drop the "time" parameter from
generic_update_time, and rework it to fetch its own timestamp.
This change means that an update_time could fetch a different timestamp
than was seen in inode_needs_update_time. update_time is only ever
called with one of two flag combinations: Either S_ATIME is set, or
S_MTIME|S_CTIME|S_VERSION are set.
With this change we now treat the flags argument as an indicator that
some value needed to be updated when last checked, rather than an
indication to update specific timestamps.
Rework the logic for updating the timestamps and put it in a new
inode_update_timestamps helper that other update_time routines can use.
S_ATIME is as treated as we always have, but if any of the other three
are set, then we attempt to update all three.
Also, some callers of generic_update_time need to know what timestamps
were actually updated. Change it to return an S_* flag mask to indicate
that and rework the callers to expect it.

generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately
today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute
(STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported,
and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain
timestamps.
Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers
just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers
(e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

All users now just use '->iterate_shared()', which only takes the
directory inode lock for reading.
Filesystems that never got convered to shared mode now instead use a
wrapper that drops the lock, re-takes it in write mode, calls the old
function, and then downgrades the lock back to read mode.
This way the VFS layer and other callers no longer need to care about
filesystems that never got converted to the modern era.
The filesystems that use the new wrapper are ceph, coda, exfat, jfs,
ntfs, ocfs2, overlayfs, and vboxsf.
Honestly, several of them look like they really could just iterate their
directories in shared mode and skip the wrapper entirely, but the point
of this change is to not change semantics or fix filesystems that
haven't been fixed in the last 7+ years, but to finally get rid of the
dual iterators.

Async dio completions generally happen from hard/soft IRQ context, which
means that users like iomap may need to defer some of the completion
handling to a workqueue. This is less efficient than having the original
issuer handle it, like we do for sync IO, and it adds latency to the
completions.
Add IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP, which the issuer can set if it is able to
safely punt these completions to a safe context. If the dio handler is
aware of this flag, assign a callback handler in kiocb->dio_complete and
associated data io kiocb->private. The issuer will then call this
handler with that data from task context.
No functional changes in this patch.

Userspace can freeze a filesystem using the FIFREEZE ioctl or by
suspending the block device; this state persists until userspace thaws
the filesystem with the FITHAW ioctl or resuming the block device.
Since commit 18e9e5104fcd ("Introduce freeze_super and thaw_super for
the fsfreeze ioctl") we only allow the first freeze command to succeed.
The kernel may decide that it is necessary to freeze a filesystem for
its own internal purposes, such as suspends in progress, filesystem fsck
activities, or quiescing a device prior to removal. Userspace thaw
commands must never break a kernel freeze, and kernel thaw commands
shouldn't undo userspace's freeze command.
Introduce a couple of freeze holder flags and wire it into the
sb_writers state. One kernel and one userspace freeze are allowed to
coexist at the same time; the filesystem will not thaw until both are
lifted.
I wonder if the f2fs/gfs2 code should be using a kernel freeze here, but
for now we'll use FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE to preserve existing
behaviors.

According to the fcntl API specification commands that expect an
integer, hence not a pointer, always take an int and not long. In
order to avoid access to undefined bits, we should explicitly cast
the argument to int.

struct timespec64 has unused bits in the tv_nsec field that can be used
for other purposes. In future patches, we're going to change how the
inode->i_ctime is accessed in certain inodes in order to make use of
them. In order to do that safely though, we'll need to eradicate raw
accesses of the inode->i_ctime field from the kernel.
Add new accessor functions for the ctime that we use to replace them.

Pull networking changes from Jakub Kicinski:
"WiFi 7 and sendpage changes are the biggest pieces of work for this
release. The latter will definitely require fixes but I think that we
got it to a reasonable point.
Core:
- Rework the sendpage & splice implementations
Instead of feeding data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg
handlers to support taking a reference on the data, controlled by a
new flag called MSG_SPLICE_PAGES
Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file to invoke an
additional callback instead of trying to predict what the right
combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is
Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely
- Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid
- Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT
- Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker
- Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families
Protocols:
- Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
tcp_rmem[2]
- Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy
- Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags
- Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative
- Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info
(MPTCP_FULL_INFO)
- Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have a full
record
- Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving the
way to issuing ioctls over io_uring
- Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address
- Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch
- PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable
- Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
(ipconfig)
- Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
(e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge)
- Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets
- Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
printk level to debug
- HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto
- Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4
- Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7
BPF:
- Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used, or
in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
especially those using open-coded iterators
- Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what the
output buffer *should* be, without writing anything
- Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers
- Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper
- Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands
- Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
maps as read-only)
- Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo
- Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are
self-explanatory):
- Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
and bpf_dynptr_clone().
- bpf_task_under_cgroup()
- bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
- bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs
Netfilter:
- Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
presence of an entry in a map without using the value
- Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds
- Allow updating size of a set
- Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing
Driver API:
- Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
"offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
(i.e. packets coming in and out)
- Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules
- Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
common helper routines
- Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
associated with the PCS layer
- Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
scheduler offload (taprio)

to fit into the message

Pull splice updates from Jens Axboe:
"This kills off ITER_PIPE to avoid a race between truncate,
iov_iter_revert() on the pipe and an as-yet incomplete DMA to a bio
with unpinned/unref'ed pages from an O_DIRECT splice read. This causes
memory corruption.
Instead, we either use (a) filemap_splice_read(), which invokes the
buffered file reading code and splices from the pagecache into the
pipe; (b) copy_splice_read(), which bulk-allocates a buffer, reads
into it and then pushes the filled pages into the pipe; or (c) handle
it in filesystem-specific code.
Summary:
- Rename direct_splice_read() to copy_splice_read()
- Simplify the calculations for the number of pages to be reclaimed
in copy_splice_read()
- Turn do_splice_to() into a helper, vfs_splice_read(), so that it
can be used by overlayfs and coda to perform the checks on the
lower fs
- Make vfs_splice_read() jump to copy_splice_read() to handle
direct-I/O and DAX
- Provide shmem with its own splice_read to handle non-existent pages
in the pagecache. We don't want a ->read_folio() as we don't want
to populate holes, but filemap_get_pages() requires it
- Provide overlayfs with its own splice_read to call down to a lower
layer as overlayfs doesn't provide ->read_folio()
- Provide coda with its own splice_read to call down to a lower layer
as coda doesn't provide ->read_folio()
- Direct ->splice_read to copy_splice_read() in tty, procfs, kernfs
and random files as they just copy to the output buffer and don't
splice pages
- Provide wrappers for afs, ceph, ecryptfs, ext4, f2fs, nfs, ntfs3,
ocfs2, orangefs, xfs and zonefs to do locking and/or revalidation
- Make cifs use filemap_splice_read()
- Replace pointers to generic_file_splice_read() with pointers to
filemap_splice_read() as DIO and DAX are handled in the caller;
filesystems can still provide their own alternate ->splice_read()
op
- Remove generic_file_splice_read()
- Remove ITER_PIPE and its paraphernalia as generic_file_splice_read
was the only user"

Pull vfs file handling updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains Amir's work to fix a long-standing problem where an
unprivileged overlayfs mount can be used to avoid fanotify permission
events that were requested for an inode or superblock on the
underlying filesystem.
Some background about files opened in overlayfs. If a file is opened
in overlayfs @file->f_path will refer to a "fake" path. What this
means is that while @file->f_inode will refer to inode of the
underlying layer, @file->f_path refers to an overlayfs
{dentry,vfsmount} pair. The reasons for doing this are out of scope
here but it is the reason why the vfs has been providing the
open_with_fake_path() helper for overlayfs for very long time now. So
nothing new here.
This is for sure not very elegant and everyone including the overlayfs
maintainers agree. Improving this significantly would involve more
fragile and potentially rather invasive changes.
In various codepaths access to the path of the underlying filesystem
is needed for such hybrid file. The best example is fsnotify where
this becomes security relevant. Passing the overlayfs
@file->f_path->dentry will cause fsnotify to skip generating fsnotify
events registered on the underlying inode or superblock.
To fix this we extend the vfs provided open_with_fake_path() concept
for overlayfs to create a backing file container that holds the real
path and to expose a helper that can be used by relevant callers to
get access to the path of the underlying filesystem through the new
file_real_path() helper. This pattern is similar to what we do in
d_real() and d_real_inode().
The first beneficiary is fsnotify and fixes the security sensitive
problem mentioned above.
There's a couple of nice cleanups included as well.
Over time, the old open_with_fake_path() helper added specifically for
overlayfs a long time ago started to get used in other places such as
cachefiles. Even though cachefiles have nothing to do with hybrid
files.
The only reason cachefiles used that concept was that files opened
with open_with_fake_path() aren't charged against the caller's open
file limit by raising FMODE_NOACCOUNT. It's just mere coincidence that
both overlayfs and cachefiles need to ensure to not overcharge the
caller for their internal open calls.
So this work disentangles FMODE_NOACCOUNT use cases and backing file
use-cases by adding the FMODE_BACKING flag which indicates that the
file can be used to retrieve the backing file of another filesystem.
(Fyi, Jens will be sending you a really nice cleanup from Christoph
that gets rid of 3 FMODE_* flags otherwise this would be the last
fmode_t bit we'd be using.)
So now overlayfs becomes the sole user of the renamed
open_with_fake_path() helper which is now named backing_file_open().
For internal kernel users such as cachefiles that are only interested
in FMODE_NOACCOUNT but not in FMODE_BACKING we add a new
kernel_file_open() helper which opens a file without being charged
against the caller's open file limit. All new helpers are properly
documented and clearly annotated to mention their special uses.
We also rename vfs_tmpfile_open() to kernel_tmpfile_open() to clearly
distinguish it from vfs_tmpfile() and align it the other kernel_*()
internal helpers"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual fs
Features:
- Use mode 0600 for file created by cachefilesd so it can be run by
unprivileged users. This aligns them with directories which are
already created with mode 0700 by cachefilesd
- Reorder a few members in struct file to prevent some false sharing
scenarios
- Indicate that an eventfd is used a semaphore in the eventfd's
fdinfo procfs file
- Add a missing uapi header for eventfd exposing relevant uapi
defines
- Let the VFS protect transitions of a superblock from read-only to
read-write in addition to the protection it already provides for
transitions from read-write to read-only. Protecting read-only to
read-write transitions allows filesystems such as ext4 to perform
internal writes, keeping writers away until the transition is
completed
Cleanups:
- Arnd removed the architecture specific arch_report_meminfo()
prototypes and added a generic one into procfs.h. Note, we got a
report about a warning in amdpgpu codepaths that suggested this was
bisectable to this change but we concluded it was a false positive
- Remove unused parameters from split_fs_names()
- Rename put_and_unmap_page() to unmap_and_put_page() to let the name
reflect the order of the cleanup operation that has to unmap before
the actual put
- Unexport buffer_check_dirty_writeback() as it is not used outside
of block device aops
- Stop allocating aio rings from highmem
- Protecting read-{only,write} transitions in the VFS used open-coded
barriers in various places. Replace them with proper little helpers
and document both the helpers and all barrier interactions involved
when transitioning between read-{only,write} states
- Use flexible array members in old readdir codepaths
Fixes:

with a "fake" path - whose f_path is not on the same fs as f_inode.

is used to hold the "fake" ovl path along with the real path.
backing_file_real_path() can be used to access the stored real path.

Add an optional method, ->splice_eof(), to allow splice to indicate the
premature termination of a splice to struct file_operations and struct
proto_ops.
This is called if sendfile() or splice() encounters all of the following
conditions inside splice_direct_to_actor():
(1) the user did not set SPLICE_F_MORE (splice only), and
(2) an EOF condition occurred (->splice_read() returned 0), and
(3) we haven't read enough to fulfill the request (ie. len > 0 still), and
(4) we have already spliced at least one byte.
A further patch will modify the behaviour of SPLICE_F_MORE to always be
passed to the actor if either the user set it or we haven't yet read
sufficient data to fulfill the request.

Replace generic_splice_sendpage() + splice_from_pipe + pipe_to_sendpage()
with a net-specific handler, splice_to_socket(), that calls sendmsg() with
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES set instead of calling ->sendpage().
MSG_MORE is used to indicate if the sendmsg() is expected to be followed
with more data.
This allows multiple pipe-buffer pages to be passed in a single call in a
BVEC iterator, allowing the processing to be pushed down to a loop in the
protocol driver. This helps pave the way for passing multipage folios down
too.
Protocols that haven't been converted to handle MSG_SPLICE_PAGES yet should
just ignore it and do a normal sendmsg() for now - although that may be a
bit slower as it may copy everything.

In the syscall test of UnixBench, performance regression occurred due
to false sharing.
The lock and atomic members, including file::f_lock, file::f_count and
file::f_pos_lock are highly contended and frequently updated in the
high-concurrency test scenarios. perf c2c indentified one affected
read access, file::f_op.
To prevent false sharing, the layout of file struct is changed as
following
(A) f_lock, f_count and f_pos_lock are put together to share the same
cache line.
(B) The read mostly members, including f_path, f_inode, f_op are put
into a separate cache line.
(C) f_mode is put together with f_count, since they are used frequently
at the same time.
Due to '__randomize_layout' attribute of file struct, the updated layout
only can be effective when CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_NONE is 'y'.
The optimization has been validated in the syscall test of UnixBench.
performance gain is 30~50%. Furthermore, to confirm the optimization
effectiveness on the other codes path, the results of fsdisk, fsbuffer
and fstime are also shown.
Here are the detailed test results of unixbench.

This reverts commit 9828ed3f695a138f7add89fa2a186ababceb8006.
Sadly, it does seem to cause failures to load modules. Johan Hovold reports:
"This change breaks module loading during boot on the Lenovo Thinkpad
X13s (aarch64).
Specifically it results in indefinite probe deferral of the display
and USB (ethernet) which makes it a pain to debug. Typing in the dark
to acquire some logs reveals that other modules are missing as well"
Since this was applied late as a "let's try this", I'm reverting it
asap, and we can try to figure out what goes wrong later. The excessive
parallel module loading problem is annoying, but not noticeable in
normal situations, and this was only meant as an optimistic workaround
for a user-space bug.
One possible solution may be to do the optimistic exclusive open first,
and then use a lock to serialize loading if that fails.

It turns out that udev under certain circumstances will concurrently try
to load the same modules over-and-over excessively. This isn't a kernel
bug, but it ends up affecting the kernel, to the point that under
certain circumstances we can fail to boot, because the kernel uses a lot
of memory to read all the module data all at once.
Note that it isn't a memory leak, it's just basically a thundering herd
problem happening at bootup with a lot of CPUs, with the worst cases
then being pretty bad.
Admittedly the worst situations are somewhat contrived: lots and lots of
CPUs, not a lot of memory, and KASAN enabled to make it all slower and
as such (unintentionally) exacerbate the problem.
Luis explains: [1]
"My best assessment of the situation is that each CPU in udev ends up
triggering a load of duplicate set of modules, not just one, but *a
lot*. Not sure what heuristics udev uses to load a set of modules per
CPU."
Petr Pavlu chimes in: [2]
"My understanding is that udev workers are forked. An initial kmod
context is created by the main udevd process but no sharing happens
after the fork. It means that the mentioned memory pool logic doesn't
really kick in.
Multiple parallel load requests come from multiple udev workers, for
instance, each handling an udev event for one CPU device and making
the exactly same requests as all others are doing at the same time.
The optimization idea would be to recognize these duplicate requests
at the udevd/kmod level and converge them"
Note that module loading has tried to mitigate this issue before, see
for example commit 064f4536d139 ("module: avoid allocation if module is
already present and ready"), which has a few ASCII graphs on memory use
due to this same issue.
However, while that noticed that the module was already loaded, and
exited with an error early before spending any more time on setting up
the module, it didn't handle the case of multiple concurrent module
loads all being active - but not complete - at the same time.
Yes, one of them will eventually win the race and finalize its copy, and
the others will then notice that the module already exists and error
out, but while this all happens, we have tons of unnecessary concurrent
work being done.
Again, the real fix is for udev to not do that (maybe it should use
threads instead of fork, and have actual shared data structures and not
cause duplicate work). That real fix is apparently not trivial.
But it turns out that the kernel already has a pretty good model for
dealing with concurrent access to the same file: the i_writecount of the
inode.
In fact, the module loading already indirectly uses 'i_writecount' ,
because 'kernel_file_read()' will in fact do
ret = deny_write_access(file);
if (ret)
return ret;
...
allow_write_access(file);
around the read of the file data. We do not allow concurrent writes to
the file, and return -ETXTBUSY if the file was open for writing at the
same time as the module data is loaded from it.
And the solution to the reader concurrency problem is to simply extend
this "no concurrent writers" logic to simply be "exclusive access".
Note that "exclusive" in this context isn't really some absolute thing:
it's only exclusion from writers and from other "special readers" that
do this writer denial. So we simply introduce a variation of that
"deny_write_access()" logic that not only denies write access, but also
requires that this is the _only_ such access that denies write access.
Which means that you can't start loading a module that is already being
loaded as a module by somebody else, or you will get the same -ETXTBSY
error that you would get if there were writers around.
[ It also means that you can't try to load a currently executing
executable as a module, for the same reason: executables do that same
"deny_write_access()" thing, and that's obviously where the whole
ETXTBSY logic traditionally came from.
This is not a problem for kernel modules, since the set of normal
executable files and kernel module files is entirely disjoint. ]
This new function is called "exclusive_deny_write_access()", and the
implementation is trivial, in that it's just an atomic decrement of
i_writecount if it was 0 before.
To use that new exclusivity check, all we then do is wrap the module
loading with that exclusive_deny_write_access()() / allow_write_access()
pair. The actual patch is a bit bigger than that, because we want to
surround not just the "load file data" part, but the whole module setup,
to get maximum exclusion.
So this ends up splitting up "finit_module()" into a few helper
functions to make it all very clear and legible.
In Luis' test-case (bringing up 255 vcpu's in a virtual machine [3]),
the "wasted vmalloc" space (ie module data read into a vmalloc'ed area
in order to be loaded as a module, but then discarded because somebody
else loaded the same module instead) dropped from 1.8GiB to 474kB. Yes,
that's gigabytes to kilobytes.
It doesn't drop completely to zero, because even with this change, you
can still end up having completely serial pointless module loads, where
one udev process has loaded a module fully (and thus the kernel has
released that exclusive lock on the module file), and then another udev
process tries to load the same module again.
So while we cannot fully get rid of the fundamental bug in user space,
we _can_ get rid of the excessive concurrent thundering herd effect.
A couple of final side notes on this all:
- This tweak only affects the "finit_module()" system call, which gives
the kernel a file descriptor with the module data.
You can also just feed the module data as raw data from user space
with "init_module()" (note the lack of 'f' at the beginning), and
obviously for that case we do _not_ have any "exclusive read" logic.
So if you absolutely want to do things wrong in user space, and try
to load the same module multiple times, and error out only later when
the kernel ends up saying "you can't load the same module name
twice", you can still do that.
And in fact, some distros will do exactly that, because they will
uncompress the kernel module data in user space before feeding it to
the kernel (mainly because they haven't started using the new kernel
side decompression yet).
So this is not some absolute "you can't do concurrent loads of the
same module". It's literally just a very simple heuristic that will
catch it early in case you try to load the exact same module file at
the same time, and in that case avoid a potentially nasty situation.
- There is another user of "deny_write_access()": the verity code that
enables fs-verity on a file (the FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY ioctl).
If you use fs-verity and you care about verifying the kernel modules
(which does make sense), you should do it *before* loading said
kernel module. That may sound obvious, but now the implementation
basically requires it. Because if you try to do it concurrently, the
kernel may refuse to load the module file that is being set up by the
fs-verity code.
- This all will obviously mean that if you insist on loading the same
module in parallel, only one module load will succeed, and the others
will return with an error.
That was true before too, but what is different is that the -ETXTBSY
error can be returned *before* the success case of another process
fully loading and instantiating the module.
Again, that might sound obvious, and it is indeed the whole point of
the whole change: we are much quicker to notice the whole "you're
already in the process of loading this module".
So it's very much intentional, but it does mean that if you just
spray the kernel with "finit_module()", and expect that the module is
immediately loaded afterwards without checking the return value, you
are doing something horribly horribly wrong.
I'd like to say that that would never happen, but the whole _reason_
for this commit is that udev is currently doing something horribly
horribly wrong, so ...
