Currently links are always done in an async fashion, unless we catch them
inline after we successfully complete a request without having to resort
to blocking. This isn't necessarily the most efficient approach, it'd be
more ideal if we could just use the task_work handling for this.
Outside of saving an async jump, we can also do less prep work for these
kinds of requests.
Running dependent links from the task_work handler yields some nice
performance benefits. As an example, examples/link-cp from the liburing
repository uses read+write links to implement a copy operation. Without
this patch, the a cache fold 4G file read from a VM runs in about 3
seconds:
$ time examples/link-cp /data/file /dev/null
real 0m2.986s
user 0m0.051s
sys 0m2.843s
and a subsequent cache hot run looks like this:
$ time examples/link-cp /data/file /dev/null
real 0m0.898s
user 0m0.069s
sys 0m0.797s
With this patch in place, the cold case takes about 2.4 seconds:
$ time examples/link-cp /data/file /dev/null
real 0m2.400s
user 0m0.020s
sys 0m2.366s
and the cache hot case looks like this:
$ time examples/link-cp /data/file /dev/null
real 0m0.676s
user 0m0.010s
sys 0m0.665s
As expected, the (mostly) cache hot case yields the biggest improvement,
running about 25% faster with this change, while the cache cold case
yields about a 20% increase in performance. Outside of the performance
increase, we're using less CPU as well, as we're not using the async
offload threads at all for this anymore.

Changeset 1eecbcdca2 ("docs: move protection-keys.rst to the core-api book")
from Jun 7, 2019 converted protection-keys.txt file to ReST.
A recent change at protection_keys.c partially reverted such
changeset, causing it to point to a non-existing file:
- * Tests x86 Memory Protection Keys (see Documentation/core-api/protection-keys.rst)
+ * Tests Memory Protection Keys (see Documentation/vm/protection-keys.txt)
It sounds to me that the changeset that introduced such change
4645e3563673 ("selftests/vm/pkeys: rename all references to pkru to a generic name")

If I understand properly we should just be able to blanket kgdb under

In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used
in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using
oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console
handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses
more locks (VT/TTY is good example).
Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb
will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the
currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead
of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an
embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console
output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being
used.
In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to
use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just
store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and
while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops
console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change,
"is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

@subbuf is an output parameter of xdr_buf_subsegment(). A survey of
call sites shows that @subbuf is always uninitialized before
xdr_buf_segment() is invoked by callers.
There are some execution paths through xdr_buf_subsegment() that do
not set all of the fields in @subbuf, leaving some pointer fields
containing garbage addresses. Subsequent processing of that buffer
then results in a page fault.

Figuring out the root case for the REMOVE/CLOSE race and
suggesting the solution was done by Neil Brown.
Currently what happens is that direct IO calls hold a reference
on the open context which is decremented as an asynchronous task
in the nfs_direct_complete(). Before reference is decremented,
control is returned to the application which is free to close the
file. When close is being processed, it decrements its reference
on the open_context but since directIO still holds one, it doesn't
sent a close on the wire. It returns control to the application
which is free to do other operations. For instance, it can delete a
file. Direct IO is finally releasing its reference and triggering
an asynchronous close. Which races with the REMOVE. On the server,
REMOVE can be processed before the CLOSE, failing the REMOVE with
EACCES as the file is still opened.

If the mirror count changes in the new layout we pick up inside
ff_layout_pg_init_write(), then we can end up adding the
request to the wrong mirror and corrupting the mirror->pg_list.

The try_location function is called within a loop by nfs_follow_referral.
try_location calls nfs4_pathname_string to created the export_path.
nfs4_pathname_string allocates the memory. export_path is stored in the
nfs_fs_context/fs_context structure similarly as hostname and source.
But whereas the ctx hostname and source are freed before assignment,
export_path is not. So if there are multiple loops, the new export_path
will overwrite the old without the old being freed.
So call kfree for export_path.
