By mistake the ITER_PIPE early-exit / warning from copy_from_iter() was cargo-culted in _copy_to_iter_mcsafe() rather than a machine-check-safe version of copy_to_iter_pipe(). Implement copy_pipe_to_iter_mcsafe() being careful to return the indication of short copies due to a CPU exception. Without this regression-fix all splice reads to dax-mode files fail.

Use the updated memcpy_mcsafe() implementation to define copy_user_mcsafe() and copy_to_iter_mcsafe().

* might_fault() is better checked in caller (and e.g. fault-in + kmap_atomic codepath also needs might_fault() coverage) * we have already done object size checks * we have *NOT* done access_ok() recently enough; we rely upon the iovec array having passed sanity checks back when it had been created and not nothing having buggered it since. However, that's very much non-local, so we'd better recheck that. So the thing we want does not match anything in uaccess - we need access_ok + kasan checks + raw copy without any zeroing. Just define such helpers and use them here. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer (non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync() to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn around and fence previous writes with an "sfence". Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h + arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache() and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy() otherwise. This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with the rest of the uaccess code [2]. The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc. Let's use the helper instead. The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator. E.g. allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation. This sounds too disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc. On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction attempts previously. There is no guarantee something like that happens though. This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because they are more conservative.

Wrong sign of iov_iter_revert() argument. Unfortunately, slipped through the testing, since most of the time we don't do anything to the iterator afterwards and potential oops on walking the iter->iov too far backwards is too infrequent to be easily triggered. Add a sanity check in iov_iter_revert() to catch bugs like this one; fortunately, the same braino hadn't happened in other callers, but we'd better have a warning if such thing crops up.

The logics in pipe_advance() used to release all buffers past the new position failed in cases when the number of buffers to release was equal to pipe->buffers. If that happened, none of them had been released, leaving pipe full. Worse, it was trivial to trigger and we end up with pipe full of uninitialized pages. IOW, it's an infoleak.

Problem similar to ones dealt with in "fold checks into iterate_and_advance()" and followups, except that in this case we really want to do nothing when asked for zero-length operation - unlike zero-length iterate_and_advance(), zero-length iterate_all_kinds() has no side effects, and callers are simpler that way. That got exposed when copy_from_iter_full() had been used by tipc, which builds an msghdr with zero payload and (now) feeds it to a primitive based on iterate_all_kinds() instead of iterate_and_advance().

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array (typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the fast path (i.e. few iovec elements). The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between the too.

iov_iter variant for passing data into pipe. copy_to_iter() copies data into page(s) it has allocated and stuffs them into the pipe; copy_page_to_iter() stuffs there a reference to the page given to it. Both will try to coalesce if possible. iov_iter_zero() is similar to copy_to_iter(); iov_iter_get_pages() and friends will do as copy_to_iter() would have and return the pages where the data would've been copied. iov_iter_advance() will truncate everything past the spot it has advanced to. New primitive: iov_iter_pipe(), used for initializing those. pipe should be locked all along. Running out of space acts as fault would for iovec-backed ones; in other words, giving it to ->read_iter() may result in short read if the pipe overflows, or -EFAULT if it happens with nothing copied there. In other words, ->read_iter() on those acts pretty much like ->splice_read(). Moreover, all generic_file_splice_read() users, as well as many other ->splice_read() instances can be switched to that scheme - that'll happen in the next commit.

copy_page_to_iter_iovec() and copy_page_from_iter_iovec() copy some data to userspace or from userspace. These functions have a fast path where they map a page using kmap_atomic and a slow path where they use kmap. kmap is slower than kmap_atomic, so the fast path is preferred. However, on kernels without highmem support, kmap just calls page_address, so there is no need to avoid kmap. On kernels without highmem support, the fast path just increases code size (and cache footprint) and it doesn't improve copy performance in any way. This patch enables the fast path only if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is defined.

the only case when we should skip the iterate_and_advance() guts is when nothing's left in the iterator, _not_ just when requested amount is 0. Said guts will do nothing in the latter case anyway; the problem we tried to deal with in the aforementioned commit is that when there's nothing left *and* the amount requested is 0, we might end up deferencing one iovec too many; the value we fetch from there is discarded in that case, but theoretically it might oops if the iovec array ends exactly at the end of page with the next page not mapped. Bailing out on zero size requested had an unexpected side effect - zero-length segment in the beginning of iovec array ended up throwing do_loop_readv_writev() into infinite spin; we do not advance past the empty segment at all. Reproducer is trivial: echo '#include <sys/uio.h>' >a.c echo 'main() {char c; struct iovec v[] = {{&c,0},{&c,1}}; readv(0,v,2);}' >>a.c cc a.c && ./a.out </proc/uptime which should end up with the process not hanging.

they are open-coded in all users except iov_iter_advance(), and there they wouldn't be a bad idea either - as it is, iov_iter_advance(i, 0) ends up dereferencing potentially past the end of iovec array.

iovec-backed iov_iter instances are assumed to satisfy several properties: * no more than UIO_MAXIOV elements in iovec array * total size of all ranges is no more than MAX_RW_COUNT * all ranges pass access_ok(). The problem is, invariants of data structures should be established in the primitives creating those data structures, not in the code using those primitives. And iov_iter_init() violates that principle. For a while we managed to get away with that, but once the use of iov_iter started to spread, it didn't take long for shit to hit the fan - missed check in sys_sendto() had introduced a roothole. We _do_ have primitives for importing and validating iovecs (both native and compat ones) and those primitives are almost always followed by shoving the resulting iovec into iov_iter. Life would be considerably simpler (and safer) if we combined those primitives with initializing iov_iter. That gives us two new primitives - import_iovec() and compat_import_iovec(). Calling conventions: iovec = iov_array; err = import_iovec(direction, uvec, nr_segs, ARRAY_SIZE(iov_array), &iovec, &iter); imports user vector into kernel space (into iov_array if it fits, allocated if it doesn't fit or if iovec was NULL), validates it and sets iter up to refer to it. On success 0 is returned and allocated kernel copy (or NULL if the array had fit into caller-supplied one) is returned via iovec. On failure all allocations are undone and -E... is returned. If the total size of ranges exceeds MAX_RW_COUNT, the excess is silently truncated. compat_import_iovec() expects uvec to be a pointer to user array of compat_iovec; otherwise it's identical to import_iovec(). Finally, import_single_range() sets iov_iter backed by single-element iovec covering a user-supplied range - err = import_single_range(direction, address, size, iovec, &iter); does validation and sets iter up. Again, size in excess of MAX_RW_COUNT gets silently truncated. Next commits will be switching the things up to use of those and reducing the amount of iov_iter_init() instances.
