commit 2032a8a27b5cc0f578d37fa16fa2494b80a0d00a upstream. XFS applies more strict serialization constraints to unaligned direct writes to accommodate things like direct I/O layer zeroing, unwritten extent conversion, etc. Unaligned submissions acquire the exclusive iolock and wait for in-flight dio to complete to ensure multiple submissions do not race on the same block and cause data corruption. This generally works in the case of an aligned dio followed by an unaligned dio, but the serialization is lost if I/Os occur in the opposite order. If an unaligned write is submitted first and immediately followed by an overlapping, aligned write, the latter submits without the typical unaligned serialization barriers because there is no indication of an unaligned dio still in-flight. This can lead to unpredictable results. To provide proper unaligned dio serialization, require that such direct writes are always the only dio allowed in-flight at one time for a particular inode. We already acquire the exclusive iolock and drain pending dio before submitting the unaligned dio. Wait once more after the dio submission to hold the iolock across the I/O and prevent further submissions until the unaligned I/O completes. This is heavy handed, but consistent with the current pre-submission serialization for unaligned direct writes.

commit 5f3e2bf008c2221478101ee72f5cb4654b9fc363 upstream. Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or SYN/ACK messages. This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu overhead. Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40 bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload. In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value to a saner value. We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility reasons. Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value in commit c39508d6 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.") from 64 to 88. We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

commit f070ef2ac66716357066b683fb0baf55f8191a2e upstream. Jonathan Looney reported that a malicious peer can force a sender to fragment its retransmit queue into tiny skbs, inflating memory usage and/or overflow 32bit counters. TCP allows an application to queue up to sk_sndbuf bytes, so we need to give some allowance for non malicious splitting of retransmit queue. A new SNMP counter is added to monitor how many times TCP did not allow to split an skb if the allowance was exceeded. Note that this counter might increase in the case applications use SO_SNDBUF socket option to lower sk_sndbuf.

commit 3b4929f65b0d8249f19a50245cd88ed1a2f78cff upstream. Jonathan Looney reported that TCP can trigger the following crash in tcp_shifted_skb() : BUG_ON(tcp_skb_pcount(skb) < pcount); This can happen if the remote peer has advertized the smallest MSS that linux TCP accepts : 48 An skb can hold 17 fragments, and each fragment can hold 32KB on x86, or 64KB on PowerPC. This means that the 16bit witdh of TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_gso_segs can overflow. Note that tcp_sendmsg() builds skbs with less than 64KB of payload, so this problem needs SACK to be enabled. SACK blocks allow TCP to coalesce multiple skbs in the retransmit queue, thus filling the 17 fragments to maximal capacity.

commit 0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5 upstream. Psi monitor aims to provide a low-latency short-term pressure detection mechanism configurable by users. It allows users to monitor psi metrics growth and trigger events whenever a metric raises above user-defined threshold within user-defined time window. Time window and threshold are both expressed in usecs. Multiple psi resources with different thresholds and window sizes can be monitored concurrently. Psi monitors activate when system enters stall state for the monitored psi metric and deactivate upon exit from the stall state. While system is in the stall state psi signal growth is monitored at a rate of 10 times per tracking window. Min window size is 500ms, therefore the min monitoring interval is 50ms. Max window size is 10s with monitoring interval of 1s. When activated psi monitor stays active for at least the duration of one tracking window to avoid repeated activations/deactivations when psi signal is bouncing. Notifications to the users are rate-limited to one per tracking window.

commit 147e1a97c4a0bdd43f55a582a9416bb9092563a9 upstream. Patch series "psi: pressure stall monitors", v3. Android is adopting psi to detect and remedy memory pressure that results in stuttering and decreased responsiveness on mobile devices. Psi gives us the stall information, but because we're dealing with latencies in the millisecond range, periodically reading the pressure files to detect stalls in a timely fashion is not feasible. Psi also doesn't aggregate its averages at a high enough frequency right now. This patch series extends the psi interface such that users can configure sensitive latency thresholds and use poll() and friends to be notified when these are breached. As high-frequency aggregation is costly, it implements an aggregation method that is optimized for fast, short-interval averaging, and makes the aggregation frequency adaptive, such that high-frequency updates only happen while monitored stall events are actively occurring. With these patches applied, Android can monitor for, and ward off, mounting memory shortages before they cause problems for the user. For example, using memory stall monitors in userspace low memory killer daemon (lmkd) we can detect mounting pressure and kill less important processes before device becomes visibly sluggish. In our memory stress testing psi memory monitors produce roughly 10x less false positives compared to vmpressure signals. Having ability to specify multiple triggers for the same psi metric allows other parts of Android framework to monitor memory state of the device and act accordingly. The new interface is straightforward. The user opens one of the pressure files for writing and writes a trigger description into the file descriptor that defines the stall state - some or full, and the maximum stall time over a given window of time. E.g.: /* Signal when stall time exceeds 100ms of a 1s window */ char trigger[] = "full 100000 1000000"; fd = open("/proc/pressure/memory"); write(fd, trigger, sizeof(trigger)); while (poll() >= 0) { ... } close(fd); When the monitored stall state is entered, psi adapts its aggregation frequency according to what the configured time window requires in order to emit event signals in a timely fashion. Once the stalling subsides, aggregation reverts back to normal. The trigger is associated with the open file descriptor. To stop monitoring, the user only needs to close the file descriptor and the trigger is discarded. Patches 1-4 prepare the psi code for polling support. Patch 5 implements the adaptive polling logic, the pressure growth detection optimized for short intervals, and hooks up write() and poll() on the pressure files. The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner. This patch (of 5): Kernfs has a standardized poll/notification mechanism for waking all pollers on all fds when a filesystem node changes. To allow polling for custom events, add a .poll callback that can override the default. This is in preparation for pollable cgroup pressure files which have per-fd trigger configurations.

The elapsed period should never be 0. The reason this can happen is due to an off-by-one in the idle time / missing period calculation combined with a coarse sched_clock() in the virtual machine. The target time for aggregation is advanced into the future on a fixed grid to prevent clock drift. So when an aggregation runs after some idle period, we can not just set it to "now + psi_period", but have to calculate the downtime and advance the target time relative to itself. However, if the aggregator was disabled exactly one psi_period (ns), we drop one idle period in the calculation due to a > when we should do >=. In that case, next_update will be advanced from 'now - psi_period' to 'now' when it should be moved to 'now + psi_period'. The run finishes with last_update == next_update == sched_clock(). With hardware clocks, this exact nanosecond match isn't likely in the first place; but if it does happen, the clock will still have moved on and the period non-zero by the time the worker runs. A pointlessly short period, but besides the extra work, no harm no foul. However, a slow sched_clock() like we have on VMs might not have advanced either by the time the worker runs again. And when we calculate the elapsed period, the result, our pressure divisor, will be 0. Ouch. Fix this by correctly handling the situation when the elapsed time between aggregation runs is precisely two periods, and advance the expiration timestamp correctly to period into the future.

commit 7b2489d37e1e355228f7c55724f77580e1dec22a upstream. The current help text caused some confusion in online forums about whether or not to default-enable or default-disable psi in vendor kernels. This is because it doesn't communicate the reason for why we made this setting configurable in the first place: that the overhead is non-zero in an artificial scheduler stress test. Since this isn't representative of real workloads, and the effect was not measurable in scheduler-heavy real world applications such as the webservers and memcache installations at Facebook, it's fair to point out that this is a pretty cautious option to select.

commit 1b69ac6b40ebd85eed73e4dbccde2a36961ab990 upstream. psi has provisions to shut off the periodic aggregation worker when there is a period of no task activity - and thus no data that needs aggregating. However, while developing psi monitoring, Suren noticed that the aggregation clock currently won't stay shut off for good. Debugging this revealed a flaw in the idle design: an aggregation run will see no task activity and decide to go to sleep; shortly thereafter, the kworker thread that executed the aggregation will go idle and cause a scheduling change, during which the psi callback will kick the !pending worker again. This will ping-pong forever, and is equivalent to having no shut-off logic at all (but with more code!) Fix this by exempting aggregation workers from psi's clock waking logic when the state change is them going to sleep. To do this, tag workers with the last work function they executed, and if in psi we see a worker going to sleep after aggregating psi data, we will not reschedule the aggregation work item. What if the worker is also executing other items before or after? Any psi state times that were incurred by work items preceding the aggregation work will have been collected from the per-cpu buckets during the aggregation itself. If there are work items following the aggregation work, the worker's last_func tag will be overwritten and the aggregator will be kept alive to process this genuine new activity. If the aggregation work is the last thing the worker does, and we decide to go idle, the brief period of non-idle time incurred between the aggregation run and the kworker's dequeue will be stranded in the per-cpu buckets until the clock is woken by later activity. But that should not be a problem. The buckets can hold 4s worth of time, and future activity will wake the clock with a 2s delay, giving us 2s worth of data we can leave behind when disabling aggregation. If it takes a worker more than two seconds to go idle after it finishes its last work item, we likely have bigger problems in the system, and won't notice one sample that was averaged with a bogus per-CPU weight.

commit e0c274472d5d27f277af722e017525e0b33784cd upstream. Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others. With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set from the commandline, this is a challenge. Do the following things to make it easier: 1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled unless a user requests it at boot-time. To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=. 2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs when the feature is disabled. In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says: : The following is a comparision using CONFIG_PSI=n as a baseline against : your patch and a vanilla kernel : : 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 : kconfigdisable-v1r1 vanilla psidisable-v1r1 : Amean 1 1.3100 ( 0.00%) 1.3923 ( -6.28%) 1.3427 ( -2.49%) : Amean 3 3.8860 ( 0.00%) 4.1230 * -6.10%* 3.8860 ( -0.00%) : Amean 5 6.8847 ( 0.00%) 8.0390 * -16.77%* 6.7727 ( 1.63%) : Amean 7 9.9310 ( 0.00%) 10.8367 * -9.12%* 9.9910 ( -0.60%) : Amean 12 16.6577 ( 0.00%) 18.2363 * -9.48%* 17.1083 ( -2.71%) : Amean 18 26.5133 ( 0.00%) 27.8833 * -5.17%* 25.7663 ( 2.82%) : Amean 24 34.3003 ( 0.00%) 34.6830 ( -1.12%) 32.0450 ( 6.58%) : Amean 30 40.0063 ( 0.00%) 40.5800 ( -1.43%) 41.5087 ( -3.76%) : Amean 32 40.1407 ( 0.00%) 41.2273 ( -2.71%) 39.9417 ( 0.50%) : : It's showing that the vanilla kernel takes a hit (as the bisection : indicated it would) and that disabling PSI by default is reasonably : close in terms of performance for this particular workload on this : particular machine so; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181127165329.GA29728@cmpxchg.orgSigned-off-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Tested-by: NMel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Reported-by: NMel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NJoseph Qi <joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com> Acked-by: NCaspar Zhang <caspar@linux.alibaba.com>

commit 2ce7135adc9ad081aa3c49744144376ac74fea60 upstream. On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health, fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others. This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups. In kernels with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure, and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only the tasks inside the cgroup.

commit eb414681d5a07d28d2ff90dc05f69ec6b232ebd2 upstream. When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

commit 1899ad18c6072d689896badafb81267b0a1092a4 upstream. Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.

commit 95f9ab2d596e8cbb388315e78c82b9a131bf2928 upstream. Patch series "psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO", v4. Overview PSI reports the overall wallclock time in which the tasks in a system (or cgroup) wait for (contended) hardware resources. This helps users understand the resource pressure their workloads are under, which allows them to rootcause and fix throughput and latency problems caused by overcommitting, underprovisioning, suboptimal job placement in a grid; as well as anticipate major disruptions like OOM. Real-world applications We're using the data collected by PSI (and its previous incarnation, memdelay) quite extensively at Facebook, and with several success stories. One usecase is avoiding OOM hangs/livelocks. The reason these happen is because the OOM killer is triggered by reclaim not being able to free pages, but with fast flash devices there is *always* some clean and uptodate cache to reclaim; the OOM killer never kicks in, even as tasks spend 90% of the time thrashing the cache pages of their own executables. There is no situation where this ever makes sense in practice. We wrote a <100 line POC python script to monitor memory pressure and kill stuff way before such pathological thrashing leads to full system losses that would require forcible hard resets. We've since extended and deployed this code into other places to guarantee latency and throughput SLAs, since they're usually violated way before the kernel OOM killer would ever kick in. It is available here: https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd Eventually we probably want to trigger the in-kernel OOM killer based on extreme sustained pressure as well, so that Linux can avoid memory livelocks - which technically aren't deadlocks, but to the user indistinguishable from them - out of the box. We'd continue using OOMD as the first line of defense to ensure workload health and implement complex kill policies that are beyond the scope of the kernel. We also use PSI memory pressure for loadshedding. Our batch job infrastructure used to use heuristics based on various VM stats to anticipate OOM situations, with lackluster success. We switched it to PSI and managed to anticipate and avoid OOM kills and lockups fairly reliably. The reduction of OOM outages in the worker pool raised the pool's aggregate productivity, and we were able to switch that service to smaller machines. Lastly, we use cgroups to isolate a machine's main workload from maintenance crap like package upgrades, logging, configuration, as well as to prevent multiple workloads on a machine from stepping on each others' toes. We were not able to configure this properly without the pressure metrics; we would see latency or bandwidth drops, but it would often be hard to impossible to rootcause it post-mortem. We now log and graph pressure for the containers in our fleet and can trivially link latency spikes and throughput drops to shortages of specific resources after the fact, and fix the job config/scheduling. PSI has also received testing, feedback, and feature requests from Android and EndlessOS for the purpose of low-latency OOM killing, to intervene in pressure situations before the UI starts hanging. How do you use this feature? A kernel with CONFIG_PSI=y will create a /proc/pressure directory with 3 files: cpu, memory, and io. If using cgroup2, cgroups will also have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure and io.pressure files, which simply aggregate task stalls at the cgroup level instead of system-wide. The cpu file contains one line: some avg10=2.04 avg60=0.75 avg300=0.40 total=157656722 The averages give the percentage of walltime in which one or more tasks are delayed on the runqueue while another task has the CPU. They're recent averages over 10s, 1m, 5m windows, so you can tell short term trends from long term ones, similarly to the load average. The total= value gives the absolute stall time in microseconds. This allows detecting latency spikes that might be too short to sway the running averages. It also allows custom time averaging in case the 10s/1m/5m windows aren't adequate for the usecase (or are too coarse with future hardware). What to make of this "some" metric? If CPU utilization is at 100% and CPU pressure is 0, it means the system is perfectly utilized, with one runnable thread per CPU and nobody waiting. At two or more runnable tasks per CPU, the system is 100% overcommitted and the pressure average will indicate as much. From a utilization perspective this is a great state of course: no CPU cycles are being wasted, even when 50% of the threads were to go idle (as most workloads do vary). From the perspective of the individual job it's not great, however, and they would do better with more resources. Depending on what your priority and options are, raised "some" numbers may or may not require action. The memory file contains two lines: some avg10=70.24 avg60=68.52 avg300=69.91 total=3559632828 full avg10=57.59 avg60=58.06 avg300=60.38 total=3300487258 The some line is the same as for cpu, the time in which at least one task is stalled on the resource. In the case of memory, this includes waiting on swap-in, page cache refaults and page reclaim. The full line, however, indicates time in which *nobody* is using the CPU productively due to pressure: all non-idle tasks are waiting for memory in one form or another. Significant time spent in there is a good trigger for killing things, moving jobs to other machines, or dropping incoming requests, since neither the jobs nor the machine overall are making too much headway. The io file is similar to memory. Because the block layer doesn't have a concept of hardware contention right now (how much longer is my IO request taking due to other tasks?), it reports CPU potential lost on all IO delays, not just the potential lost due to competition. FAQ Q: How is PSI's CPU component different from the load average? A: There are several quirks in the load average that make it hard to impossible to tell how overcommitted the CPU really is. 1. The load average is reported as a raw number of active tasks. You need to know how many CPUs there are in the system, how many CPUs the workload is allowed to use, then think about what the proportion between load and the number of CPUs mean for the tasks trying to run. PSI reports the percentage of wallclock time in which tasks are waiting for a CPU to run on. It doesn't matter how many CPUs are present or usable. The number always tells the quality of life of tasks in the system or in a particular cgroup. 2. The shortest averaging window is 1m, which is extremely coarse, and it's sampled in 5s intervals. A *lot* can happen on a CPU in 5 seconds. This *may* be able to identify persistent long-term trends and very clear and obvious overloads, but it's unusable for latency spikes and more subtle overutilization. PSI's shortest window is 10s. It also exports the cumulative stall times (in microseconds) of synchronously recorded events. 3. On Linux, the load average for historical reasons includes all TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks. This gives a broader sense of how busy the system is, but on the flipside it doesn't distinguish whether tasks are likely to contend over the CPU or IO - which obviously requires very different interventions from a sys admin or a job scheduler. PSI reports independent metrics for CPU and IO. You can tell which resource is making the tasks wait, but in conjunction still see how overloaded the system is overall. Q: What's the cost / performance impact of this feature? A: PSI's primary cost is in the scheduler, in particular task wakeups and sleeps. I benchmarked this code using Facebook's two most scheduling sensitive workloads: memcache and webserver. They handle a ton of small requests - lots of wakeups and sleeps with little actual work in between - so they tend to be canaries for scheduler regressions. In the tests, the boxes were handling live traffic over the course of several hours. Half the machines, the control, ran with CONFIG_PSI=n. For memcache I used eight machines total. They're 2-socket, 14 core, 56 thread boxes. The test runs for half the test period, flips the test and control kernels on the hardware to rule out HW factors, DC location etc., then runs the other half of the test. For the webservers, I used 32 machines total. They're single socket, 16 core, 32 thread machines. During the memcache test, CPU load was nopsi=78.05% psi=78.98% in the first half and nopsi=77.52% psi=78.25%, so PSI added between 0.7 and 0.9 percentage points to the CPU load, a difference of about 1%. UPDATE: I re-ran this test with the v3 version of this patch set and the CPU utilization was equivalent between test and control. UPDATE: v4 is on par with v3. As far as end-to-end request latency from the client perspective goes, we don't sample those finely enough to capture the requests going to those particular machines during the test, but we know the p50 turnaround time in this workload is 54us, and perf bench sched pipe on those machines show nopsi=5.232666 us/op and psi=5.587347 us/op, so this doesn't add much here either. The profile for the pipe benchmark shows: 0.87% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.83% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.82% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change 0.58% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change The webserver load is running inside 4 nested cgroup levels. The CPU load with both nopsi and psi kernels was indistinguishable at 81%. For comparison, we had to disable the cgroup cpu controller on the webservers because it added 4 percentage points to the CPU% during this same exact test. Versions of this accounting code now run on 80% of our fleet. None of our workloads have reported regressions during the rollout.

Nicely : done! This patch (of 9): If we keep just enough refault information to match the *current* page cache during reclaim time, we could lose a lot of events when there is only a temporary spike in non-cache memory consumption that pushes out all the cache. Once cache comes back, we won't see those refaults. They might not be actionable for LRU aging, but we want to know about them for measuring memory pressure.

[ Upstream commit d2a68c4effd821f0871d20368f76b609349c8a3b ] Since commit 79922b80 ("ftrace: Optimize function graph to be called directly"), dynamic trampolines should not be calling the function graph tracer at the end. If they do, it could cause the function graph tracer to trace functions that it filtered out. Right now it does not cause a problem because there's a test to check if the function graph tracer is attached to the same function as the function tracer, which for now is true. But the function graph tracer is undergoing changes that can make this no longer true which will cause the function graph tracer to trace other functions. For example: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ # echo do_IRQ > set_ftrace_filter # mkdir instances/foo # echo ip_rcv > instances/foo/set_ftrace_filter # echo function_graph > current_tracer # echo function > instances/foo/current_tracer Would cause the function graph tracer to trace both do_IRQ and ip_rcv, if the current tests change. As the current tests prevent this from being a problem, this code does not need to be backported. But it does make the code cleaner.

commit 17614445576b6af24e9cf36607c6448164719c96 upstream. In commit 4721a601099, we tried to fix a problem wherein directio reads into a splice pipe will bounce EFAULT/EAGAIN all the way out to userspace by simulating a zero-byte short read. This happens because some directio read implementations (xfs) will call bio_iov_iter_get_pages to grab pipe buffer pages and issue asynchronous reads, but as soon as we run out of pipe buffers that _get_pages call returns EFAULT, which the splice code translates to EAGAIN and bounces out to userspace. In that commit, the iomap code catches the EFAULT and simulates a zero-byte read, but that causes assertion errors on regular splice reads because xfs doesn't allow short directio reads. The brokenness is compounded by splice_direct_to_actor immediately bailing on do_splice_to returning <= 0 without ever calling ->actor (which empties out the pipe), so if userspace calls back we'll EFAULT again on the full pipe, and nothing ever gets copied. Therefore, teach splice_direct_to_actor to clamp its requests to the amount of free space in the pipe and remove the simulated short read from the iomap directio code.

Unfortunately, if we happen to run out of buffer space while emitting the first name, we set count to -1 (so that we can feed ERANGE to the caller).

Commit 37f9579f ("blk-mq: Avoid that submitting a bio concurrently with device removal triggers a crash") introduced a NULL pointer dereference in generic_make_request(). The patch sets q to NULL and enter_succeeded to false; right after, there's an 'if (enter_succeeded)' which is not taken, and then the 'else' will dereference q in blk_queue_dying(q). This patch just moves the 'q = NULL' to a point in which it won't trigger the oops, although the semantics of this NULLification remains untouched. A simple test case/reproducer is as follows: a) Build kernel v5.2-rc1 with CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP=n. b) Create a raid0 md array with 2 NVMe devices as members, and mount it with an ext4 filesystem. c) Run the following oneliner (supposing the raid0 is mounted in /mnt): (dd of=/mnt/tmp if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=999 &); sleep 0.3; echo 1 > /sys/block/nvme0n1/device/device/remove (whereas nvme0n1 is the 2nd array member) This will trigger the following oops: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000078 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI RIP: 0010:generic_make_request+0x32b/0x400 Call Trace: submit_bio+0x73/0x140 ext4_io_submit+0x4d/0x60 ext4_writepages+0x626/0xe90 do_writepages+0x4b/0xe0 [...] This patch has no functional changes and preserves the md/raid0 behavior when a member is removed before kernel v4.17.
