- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the signal
of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be delivered once
the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small intervals
and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states for no value.
This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to the lock order of
posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with life time issues as
the timer and the sigqueue have different life time rules.
Cure this by:
* Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same life
time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of the timer
in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a always valid
container_of() now.
* Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
* Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the signal is
switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
* Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal delivery
code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they are
consistent across all situations. With that all self test scenarios
finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time stamps
by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode attributes
are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that the
VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
* Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
* Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline functions
and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper defines.
* Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the timer
wheel granularity on different HZ values into account. Right now the
boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail to provide the
requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
* Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions and fix
up stale documentation links all over the place
* Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as that's
the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the various user
space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file descriptor
based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited. They can't be
accessed fast as they always go all the way out to the hardware and
they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the kernel
provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework converts
timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality which operates
on pointers to data structures instead of using static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality for
the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less straight
forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the core
code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is already
prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
* Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with other
clusters.
* Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement

Merge tag 'for-6.13/io_uring-20241118' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux
Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Cleanups of the eventfd handling code, making it fully private.
- Support for sending a sync message to another ring, without having a
ring available to send a normal async message.
- Get rid of the separate unlocked hash table, unify everything around
the single locked one.
- Add support for ring resizing. It can be hard to appropriately size
the CQ ring upfront, if the application doesn't know how busy it will
be. This results in applications sizing rings for the most busy case,
which can be wasteful. With ring resizing, they can start small and
grow the ring, if needed.
- Add support for fixed wait regions, rather than needing to copy the
same wait data tons of times for each wait operation.
- Rewrite the resource node handling, which before was serialized per
ring. This caused issues with particularly fixed files, where one
file waiting on IO could hold up putting and freeing of other
unrelated files. Now each node is handled separately. New code is
much simpler too, and was a net 250 line reduction in code.
- Add support for just doing partial buffer clones, rather than always
cloning the entire buffer table.
- Series adding static NAPI support, where a specific NAPI instance is
used rather than having a list of them available that need lookup.
- Add support for mapped regions, and also convert the fixed wait
support mentioned above to that concept. This avoids doing special
mappings for various planned features, and folds the existing
registered wait into that too.
- Add support for hybrid IO polling, which is a variant of strict
IOPOLL but with an initial sleep delay to avoid spinning too early
and wasting resources on devices that aren't necessarily in the < 5
usec category wrt latencies.
- Various cleanups and little fixes.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"Changes outside of btrfs: add io_uring command flag to track a dying
task (the rest will go via the block git tree).
User visible changes:
- wire encoded read (ioctl) to io_uring commands, this can be used on
itself, in the future this will allow 'send' to be asynchronous. As
a consequence, the encoded read ioctl can also work in non-blocking
mode
- new ioctl to wait for cleaned subvolumes, no need to use the
generic and root-only SEARCH_TREE ioctl, will be used by "btrfs
subvol sync"
- recognize different paths/symlinks for the same devices and don't
report them during rescanning, this can be observed with LVM or DM
- seeding device use case change, the sprout device (the one
capturing new writes) will not clear the read-only status of the
super block; this prevents accumulating space from deleted
snapshots
Performance improvements:
- reduce lock contention when traversing extent buffers
- reduce extent tree lock contention when searching for inline
backref
- switch from rb-trees to xarray for delayed ref tracking,
improvements due to better cache locality, branching factors and
more compact data structures
- enable extent map shrinker again (prevent memory exhaustion under
some types of IO load), reworked to run in a single worker thread
(there used to be problems causing long stalls under memory
pressure)
Core changes:
- raid-stripe-tree feature updates:
- make device replace and scrub work
- implement partial deletion of stripe extents
- new selftests
- split the config option BTRFS_DEBUG and add EXPERIMENTAL for
features that are experimental or with known problems so we don't
misuse debugging config for that
- subpage mode updates (sector < page):
- update compression implementations
- update writepage, writeback
- continued folio API conversions:
- buffered writes
- make buffered write copy one page at a time, preparatory work for
future integration with large folios, may cause performance drop
- proper locking of root item regarding starting send
- error handling improvements
- code cleanups and refactoring:
- dead code removal
- unused parameter reduction
- lockdep assertions"

Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains changes the changes for files for this cycle:
- Introduce a new reference counting mechanism for files.
As atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a try_cmpxchg() loop
it has O(N^2) behaviour under contention with N concurrent
operations and it is in a hot path in __fget_files_rcu().
The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an
unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make
this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in
question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow
protection.
However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory
barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and
also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts
of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack.
This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic
library.
This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent
improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads.
- Add a fastpath for find_next_zero_bit(). Skip 2-levels searching
via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that
contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8%
and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160.
- Conditionally clear full_fds_bits since it's very likely that a bit
in full_fds_bits has been cleared during __clear_open_fds(). This
improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read up to 13%, and write up to 5% on
Intel ICX 160.
- Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to
lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid
once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're
always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing
helper and remove the legacy variants.
- Remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h>.
- Avoid cmpxchg() in close_files() as nobody else has a reference to
the files_struct at that point.
- Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it.
- Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files().
- Merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() into one.
- Make __set_open_fd() set cloexec as well instead of doing it in two
separate steps"

Now we've got a more generic region registration API, place
IORING_ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG and re-enable it.
First, the user has to register a region with the
IORING_MEM_REGION_REG_WAIT_ARG flag set. It can only be done for a
ring in a disabled state, aka IORING_SETUP_R_DISABLED, to avoid races
with already running waiters. With that we should have stable constant
values for ctx->cq_wait_{size,arg} in io_get_ext_arg_reg() and hence no
READ_ONCE required.
The other API difference is that we're now passing byte offsets instead
of indexes. The user _must_ align all offsets / pointers to the native
word size, failing to do so might but not necessarily has to lead to a
failure usually returned as -EFAULT. liburing will be hiding this
details from users.

Regions will serve multiple purposes. First, with it we can decouple
ring/etc. object creation from registration / mapping of the memory they
will be placed in. We already have hacks that allow to put both SQ and
CQ into the same huge page, in the future we should be able to:
region = create_region(io_ring);
create_pbuf_ring(io_uring, region, offset=0);
create_pbuf_ring(io_uring, region, offset=N);
The second use case is efficiently passing parameters. The following
patch enables back on top of regions IORING_ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG, which
optimises wait arguments. It'll also be useful for request arguments
replacing iovecs, msghdr, etc. pointers. Eventually it would also be
handy for BPF as well if it comes to fruition.

We've got a good number of mappings we share with the userspace, that
includes the main rings, provided buffer rings, upcoming rings for
zerocopy rx and more. All of them duplicate user argument parsing and
some internal details as well (page pinnning, huge page optimisations,
mmap'ing, etc.)
Introduce a notion of regions. For userspace for now it's just a new
structure called struct io_uring_region_desc which is supposed to
parameterise all such mapping / queue creations. A region either
represents a user provided chunk of memory, in which case the user_addr
field should point to it, or a request for the kernel to allocate the
memory, in which case the user would need to mmap it after using the
offset returned in the mmap_offset field. With a uniform userspace API
we can avoid additional boiler plate code and apply future optimisation
to all of them at once.
Internally, there is a new structure struct io_mapped_region holding all
relevant runtime information and some helpers to work with it. This
patch limits it to user provided regions.

When the taks that submitted a request is dying, a task work for that
request might get run by a kernel thread or even worse by a half

`io_rsrc_node` instance is allocated actually for destination io_uring_ctx.

Rather than store the task_struct itself in struct io_kiocb, store
the io_uring specific task_struct. The life times are the same in terms
of io_uring, and this avoids doing some dereferences through the
task_struct. For the hot path of putting local task references, we can
deref req->tctx instead, which we'll need anyway in that function
regardless of whether it's local or remote references.
This is mostly straight forward, except the original task PF_EXITING
check needs a bit of tweaking. task_work is _always_ run from the
originating task, except in the fallback case, where it's run from a
kernel thread. Replace the potentially racy (in case of fallback work)
checks for req->task->flags with current->flags. It's either the still
the original task, in which case PF_EXITING will be sane, or it has
PF_KTHREAD set, in which case it's fallback work. Both cases should
prevent moving forward with the given request.

Currently the io_rsrc_node assignment in io_kiocb is an array of two
pointers, as two nodes may be assigned to a request - one file node,
and one buffer node. However, the buffer node can co-exist with the
provided buffers, as currently it's not supported to use both provided
and registered buffers at the same time.
This crucially brings struct io_kiocb down to 4 cache lines again, as
before it spilled into the 5th cacheline.

A new hybrid poll is implemented on the io_uring layer. Once an IO is
issued, it will not poll immediately, but rather block first and re-run
before IO complete, then poll to reap IO. While this poll method could
be a suboptimal solution when running on a single thread, it offers
performance lower than regular polling but higher than IRQ, and CPU
utilization is also lower than polling.
To use hybrid polling, the ring must be setup with both the
IORING_SETUP_IOPOLL and IORING_SETUP_HYBRID)IOPOLL flags set. Hybrid
polling has the same restrictions as IOPOLL, in that commands must
explicitly support it.

Currently cloning a buffer table will fail if the destination already has
a table. But it should be possible to use it to replace existing elements.
Add a IORING_REGISTER_DST_REPLACE cloning flag, which if set, will allow
the destination to already having a buffer table. If that is the case,
then entries designated by offset + nr buffers will be replaced if they
already exist.
Note that it's allowed to use IORING_REGISTER_DST_REPLACE and not have
an existing table, in which case it'll work just like not having the
flag set and an empty table - it'll just assign the newly created table
for that case.

Right now buffer cloning is an all-or-nothing kind of thing - either the
whole table is cloned from a source to a destination ring, or nothing at

However, it's not always desired to clone the whole thing. Allow for

number of buffers to clone. If the destination offset is non-zero, then

The empty node was used as a placeholder for a sparse entry, but it

The dummy_ubuf was used for a sparse buffer entry, but NULL will serve
