There is an acct->nr_worker visit without lock protection. Think about
the case: two callers call io_wqe_wake_worker(), one is the original
context and the other one is an io-worker(by calling
io_wqe_enqueue(wqe, linked)), on two cpus paralelly, this may cause
nr_worker to be larger than max_worker.
Let's fix it by adding lock for it, and let's do nr_workers++ before
create_io_worker. There may be a edge cause that the first caller fails
to create an io-worker, but the second caller doesn't know it and then
quit creating io-worker as well:
say nr_worker = max_worker - 1
cpu 0 cpu 1
io_wqe_wake_worker() io_wqe_wake_worker()
nr_worker < max_worker
nr_worker++
create_io_worker() nr_worker == max_worker
failed return

But the chance of this case is very slim.

[axboe: fix unconditional create_io_worker() call]
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
Nadav correctly reports that we have a race between a worker exiting,
and new work being queued. This can lead to work being queued behind
an existing worker that could be sleeping on an event before it can
run to completion, and hence introducing potential big latency gaps
if we hit this race condition:
cpu0 cpu1
---- ----
io_wqe_worker()
schedule_timeout()
// timed out
io_wqe_enqueue()
io_wqe_wake_worker()
// work_flags & IO_WQ_WORK_CONCURRENT
io_wqe_activate_free_worker()
io_worker_exit()
Fix this by having the exiting worker go through the normal decrement
of a running worker, which will spawn a new one if needed.
The free worker activation is modified to only return success if we
were able to find a sleeping worker - if not, we keep looking through
the list. If we fail, we create a new worker as per usual.

io-wq defaults to per-node masks for IO workers. This works fine by
default, but isn't particularly handy for workloads that prefer more
specific affinities, for either performance or isolation reasons.
This adds IORING_REGISTER_IOWQ_AFF that allows the user to pass in a CPU
mask that is then applied to IO thread workers, and an
IORING_UNREGISTER_IOWQ_AFF that simply resets the masks back to the
default of per-node.
Note that no care is given to existing IO threads, they will need to go
through a reschedule before the affinity is correct if they are already
running or sleeping.

There is an old problem with io-wq cancellation where requests should be
killed and are in io-wq but are not discoverable, e.g. in @next_hashed
or @linked vars of io_worker_handle_work(). It adds some unreliability
to individual request canellation, but also may potentially get
__io_uring_cancel() stuck. For instance:
1) An __io_uring_cancel()'s cancellation round have not found any
request but there are some as desribed.
2) __io_uring_cancel() goes to sleep
3) Then workers wake up and try to execute those hidden requests
that happen to be unbound.
As we already cancel all requests of io-wq there, set IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT
in advance, so preventing 3) from executing unbound requests. The
workers will initially break looping because of getting a signal as they
are threads of the dying/exec()'ing user task.

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
io-wq relies on a manager thread to create/fork new workers, as needed.
But there's really no strong need for it anymore. We have the following
cases that fork a new worker:
1) Work queue. This is done from the task itself always, and it's trivial
to create a worker off that path, if needed.
2) All workers have gone to sleep, and we have more work. This is called
off the sched out path. For this case, use a task_work items to queue
a fork-worker operation.
3) Hashed work completion. Don't think we need to do anything off this
case. If need be, it could just use approach 2 as well.
Part of this change is incrementing the running worker count before the
fork, to avoid cases where we observe we need a worker and then queue
creation of one. Then new work comes in, we fork a new one. That last
queue operation should have waited for the previous worker to come up,
it's quite possible we don't even need it. Hence move the worker running
from before we fork it off to more efficiently handle that case.

We go through various hoops to disallow signals for the IO threads, but
there's really no reason why we cannot just allow them. The IO threads
never return to userspace like a normal thread, and hence don't go through
normal signal processing. Instead, just check for a pending signal as part
of the work loop, and call get_signal() to handle it for us if anything
is pending.
With that, we can support receiving signals, including special ones like
SIGSTOP.

Linus correctly points out that this is both unnecessary and generates
much worse code on some archs as going from current to thread_info is
actually backwards - and obviously just wasteful, since the thread_info
is what we care about.
Since io_uring only operates on current for these operations, just use
test_thread_flag() instead. For io-wq, we can further simplify and use
tracehook_notify_signal() to handle the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL work and clear
the flag. The latter isn't an actual bug right now, but it may very well
be in the future if we place other work items under TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.

know that any async work cancels naturally without having to handle it
proactively.
But it does mean that we need to setup a new manager, as the manager and
workers are gone. Handle this at queue time, and cancel work if we fail.
Since the manager can go away without us noticing, ensure that the manager
itself holds a reference to the 'wq' as well. Rename io_wq_destroy() to
io_wq_put() to reflect that.
In the future we can now simplify exec cancelation handling, for now just
leave it the same.
