Pull cifs client updates from Steve French:
 "The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
  cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to
  the network transport rather than passing lists of pages around,
  helping multiple areas:

   - Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
     and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
     belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
     that the parent might not see the retrieved data.

   - cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
     iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
     appropriate cleanup.

   - Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
     pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.

   - Allowing cifs to use the new splice function

  The remainder are:

   - fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
     wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
     important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes

   - cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
     a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)

   - SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes

   - reconnect fixes

   - multichannel fixes, including improving channel allocation (to
     least used channel)

   - remove the last use of lock_page_killable by moving to
     folio_lock_killable"

<title>cifs: Change the I/O paths to use an iterator rather than a page list</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.rulkc.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=d08089f649a0cfb2099c8551ac47eef0cc23fdf2'/>
<id>urn:sha1:d08089f649a0cfb2099c8551ac47eef0cc23fdf2</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the cifs I/O paths hand lists of pages from the VM interface
routines at the top all the way through the intervening layers to the
socket interface at the bottom.

This is a problem, however, for interfacing with netfslib which passes an
iterator through to the -&gt;issue_read() method (and will pass an iterator
through to the -&gt;issue_write() method in future).  Netfslib takes over
bounce buffering for direct I/O, async I/O and encrypted content, so cifs
doesn't need to do that.  Netfslib also converts IOVEC-type iterators into
BVEC-type iterators if necessary.

Further, cifs needs foliating - and folios may come in a variety of sizes,
so a page list pointing to an array of heterogeneous pages may cause
problems in places such as where crypto is done.

Change the cifs I/O paths to hand iov_iter iterators all the way through
instead.

Notes:

 (1) Some old routines are #if'd out to be removed in a follow up patch so
     as to avoid confusing diff, thereby making the diff output easier to
     follow.  I've removed functions that don't overlap with anything
     added.

 (2) struct smb_rqst loses rq_pages, rq_offset, rq_npages, rq_pagesz and
     rq_tailsz which describe the pages forming the buffer; instead there's
     an rq_iter describing the source buffer and an rq_buffer which is used
     to hold the buffer for encryption.

 (3) struct cifs_readdata and cifs_writedata are similarly modified to
     smb_rqst.  The -&gt;read_into_pages() and -&gt;copy_into_pages() are then
     replaced with passing the iterator directly to the socket.

     The iterators are stored in these structs so that they are persistent
     and don't get deallocated when the function returns (unlike if they
     were stack variables).

 (4) Buffered writeback is overhauled, borrowing the code from the afs
     filesystem to gather up contiguous runs of folios.  The XARRAY-type
     iterator is then used to refer directly to the pagecache and can be
     passed to the socket to transmit data directly from there.

     This includes:

	cifs_extend_writeback()
	cifs_write_back_from_locked_folio()
	cifs_writepages_region()
	cifs_writepages()

 (5) Pages are converted to folios.

 (6) Direct I/O uses netfs_extract_user_iter() to create a BVEC-type
     iterator from an IOBUF/UBUF-type source iterator.

 (7) smb2_get_aead_req() uses netfs_extract_iter_to_sg() to extract page
     fragments from the iterator into the scatterlists that the crypto
     layer prefers.

 (8) smb2_init_transform_rq() attached pages to smb_rqst::rq_buffer, an
     xarray, to use as a bounce buffer for encryption.  An XARRAY-type
     iterator can then be used to pass the bounce buffer to lower layers.

READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.

Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

<title>netfs: Fix gcc-12 warning by embedding vfs inode in netfs_i_context</title>

<id>urn:sha1:874c8ca1e60b2c564a48f7e7acc40d328d5c8733</id>
<content type='text'>
While randstruct was satisfied with using an open-coded "void *" offset
cast for the netfs_i_context &lt;-&gt; inode casting, __builtin_object_size() as
used by FORTIFY_SOURCE was not as easily fooled.  This was causing the
following complaint[1] from gcc v12:

  In file included from include/linux/string.h:253,
                   from include/linux/ceph/ceph_debug.h:7,
                   from fs/ceph/inode.c:2:
  In function 'fortify_memset_chk',
      inlined from 'netfs_i_context_init' at include/linux/netfs.h:326:2,
      inlined from 'ceph_alloc_inode' at fs/ceph/inode.c:463:2:
  include/linux/fortify-string.h:242:25: warning: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
    242 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
        |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by embedding a struct inode into struct netfs_i_context (which
should perhaps be renamed to struct netfs_inode).  The struct inode
vfs_inode fields are then removed from the 9p, afs, ceph and cifs inode
structs and vfs_inode is then simply changed to "netfs.inode" in those
filesystems.

Further, rename netfs_i_context to netfs_inode, get rid of the
netfs_inode() function that converted a netfs_i_context pointer to an
inode pointer (that can now be done with &amp;ctx-&gt;inode) and rename the
netfs_i_context() function to netfs_inode() (which is now a wrapper
around container_of()).

Most of the changes were done with:

  perl -p -i -e 's/vfs_inode/netfs.inode/'g \
        `git grep -l 'vfs_inode' -- fs/{9p,afs,ceph,cifs}/*.[ch]`

Kees suggested doing it with a pair structure[2] and a special
declarator to insert that into the network filesystem's inode
wrapper[3], but I think it's cleaner to embed it - and then it doesn't
matter if struct randomisation reorders things.

Dave Chinner suggested using a filesystem-specific VFS_I() function in
each filesystem to convert that filesystem's own inode wrapper struct
into the VFS inode struct[4].

Version #2:
 - Fix a couple of missed name changes due to a disabled cifs option.
 - Rename nfs_i_context to nfs_inode
 - Use "netfs" instead of "nic" as the member name in per-fs inode wrapper
   structs.

[ This also undoes commit 507160f46c55 ("netfs: gcc-12: temporarily
  disable '-Wattribute-warning' for now") that is no longer needed ]

<title>netfs: Add a netfs inode context</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bc899ee1c898e520574ff4d99356eb2e724a9265</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a netfs_i_context struct that should be included in the network
filesystem's own inode struct wrapper, directly after the VFS's inode
struct, e.g.:

	struct my_inode {
		struct {
			/* These must be contiguous */
			struct inode		vfs_inode;
			struct netfs_i_context	netfs_ctx;
		};
	};

The netfs_i_context struct so far contains a single field for the network
filesystem to use - the cache cookie:

	struct netfs_i_context {
		...
		struct fscache_cookie	*cache;
	};

Three functions are provided to help with this:

 (1) void netfs_i_context_init(struct inode *inode,
			       const struct netfs_request_ops *ops);

     Initialise the netfs context and set the operations.

 (2) struct netfs_i_context *netfs_i_context(struct inode *inode);

     Find the netfs context from the VFS inode.

 (3) struct inode *netfs_inode(struct netfs_i_context *ctx);

     Find the VFS inode from the netfs context.

Changes
=======
ver #4)
 - Fix netfs_is_cache_enabled() to check cookie-&gt;cache_priv to see if a
   cache is present[3].
 - Fix netfs_skip_folio_read() to zero out all of the page, not just some
   of it[3].

ver #3)
 - Split out the bit to move ceph cap-getting on readahead into
   ceph_init_request()[1].
 - Stick in a comment to the netfs inode structs indicating the contiguity
   requirements[2].

ver #2)
 - Adjust documentation to match.
 - Use "#if IS_ENABLED()" in netfs_i_cookie(), not "#ifdef".
 - Move the cap check from ceph_readahead() to ceph_init_request() to be
   called from netfslib.
 - Remove ceph_readahead() and use  netfs_readahead() directly instead.

Export fscache_end_operation() to avoid code duplication.

Besides, considering the paired fscache_begin_read_operation() is
already exported, it shall make sense to also export
fscache_end_operation().

<title>cifs: Implement cache I/O by accessing the cache directly</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0174ee9947bd0f24fee2794b35258960d108b7aa</id>
<content type='text'>
Move cifs to using fscache DIO API instead of the old upstream I/O API as
that has been removed.  This is a stopgap solution as the intention is that
at sometime in the future, the cache will move to using larger blocks and
won't be able to store individual pages in order to deal with the potential
for data corruption due to the backing filesystem being able insert/remove
bridging blocks of zeros into its extent list[1].

cifs then reads and writes cache pages synchronously and one page at a time.

The preferred change would be to use the netfs lib, but the new I/O API can
be used directly.  It's just that as the cache now needs to track data for
itself, caching blocks may exceed page size...

This code is somewhat borrowed from my "fallback I/O" patchset[2].
