commit a360f311f57a36e96d88fa8086b749159714dcd2 upstream.

This was attempted by using the dev_name in the slab cache name, but as
Omar Sandoval pointed out, that can be an arbitrary string, eg something
like "/dev/root".  Which in turn trips verify_dirent_name(), which fails
if a filename contains a slash.

So just make it use a sequence counter, and make it an atomic_t to avoid
any possible races or locking issues.

If p9_check_errors() fails early in p9_client_rpc(), req-&gt;rc.tag
will not be properly initialized. However, trace_9p_client_res()
ends up trying to print it out anyway before p9_client_rpc()
finishes.

Fix this issue by assigning default values to p9_fcall fields
such as 'tag' and (just in case KMSAN unearths something new) 'id'
during the tag allocation stage.

<title>net/9p: Initialize the iounit field during fid creation</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fe9c758e5b353437b9c3b6cf8de137c486b16c87</id>
<content type='text'>
commit aa7aeee169480e98cf41d83c01290a37e569be6d upstream.

Ensure that the fid's iounit field is set to zero when a new fid is
created. Certain 9P operations, such as OPEN and CREATE, allow the
server to reply with an iounit size which the client code assigns to the
p9_fid struct shortly after the fid is created by p9_fid_create(). On
the other hand, an XATTRWALK operation doesn't allow for the server to
specify an iounit value. The iounit field of the newly allocated p9_fid
struct remained uninitialized in that case. Depending on allocation
patterns, the iounit value could have been something reasonable that was
carried over from previously freed fids or, in the worst case, could
have been arbitrary values from non-fid related usages of the memory
location.

The bug was detected in the Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL2) kernel
after the uninitialized iounit field resulted in the typical sequence of
two getxattr(2) syscalls, one to get the size of an xattr and another
after allocating a sufficiently sized buffer to fit the xattr value, to
hit an unexpected ERANGE error in the second call to getxattr(2). An
uninitialized iounit field would sometimes force rsize to be smaller
than the xattr value size in p9_client_read_once() and the 9P server in
WSL refused to chunk up the READ on the attr_fid and, instead, returned
ERANGE to the client. The virtfs server in QEMU seems happy to chunk up
the READ and this problem goes undetected there.

[ Upstream commit 0ce772fe79b68f83df40f07f28207b292785c677 ]

The p9_tag_alloc() does not initialize the transport error t_err field.
The struct p9_req_t *req is allocated and stored in a struct p9_client
variable. The field t_err is never initialized before p9_conn_cancel()
checks its value.

[ Upstream commit 728356dedeff8ef999cb436c71333ef4ac51a81c ]

To avoid use-after-free(s), use a refcount to keep track of the
usable references to any instantiated struct p9_req_t.

This commit adds p9_req_put(), p9_req_get() and p9_req_try_get() as
wrappers to kref_put(), kref_get() and kref_get_unless_zero().
These are used by the client and the transports to keep track of
valid requests' references.

p9_free_req() is added back and used as callback by kref_put().

Add SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU as it ensures that the memory freed by
kmem_cache_free() will not be reused for another type until the rcu
synchronisation period is over, so an address gotten under rcu read
lock is safe to inc_ref() without corrupting random memory while
the lock is held.

In sight of the next patch to add a refcount in p9_req_t, rename
the p9_free_req() function in p9_release_req().

In the next patch the actual kfree will be moved to another function.

[ Upstream commit 91a76be37ff89795526c452a6799576b03bec501 ]

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
end-to-end latency.

The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.

Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.

Some figures on two beefy VMs with Connect-IB (sriov) / trans=rdma,
with ior running 32 processes in parallel doing small 32 bytes IOs:
 - no alloc (4.18-rc7 request cache): 65.4k req/s
 - non-power of two alloc, no patch: 61.6k req/s
 - power of two alloc, no patch: 62.2k req/s
 - non-power of two alloc, with patch: 64.7k req/s
 - power of two alloc, with patch: 65.1k req/s
