DaeRyong Jeong reports a race between vhost_dev_cleanup() and
vhost_process_iotlb_msg():

Thread interleaving:
CPU0 (vhost_process_iotlb_msg)			CPU1 (vhost_dev_cleanup)
(In the case of both VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE and
VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE)

=====						=====
						vhost_umem_clean(dev-&gt;iotlb);
if (!dev-&gt;iotlb) {
	        ret = -EFAULT;
		        break;
}
						dev-&gt;iotlb = NULL;

The reason is we don't synchronize between them, fixing by protecting
vhost_process_iotlb_msg() with dev mutex.

<title>vhost: return bool from *_access_ok() functions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ddd3d4081ffa806ffef28eaeefde757ba2b6812a</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently vhost *_access_ok() functions return int.  This is error-prone
because there are two popular conventions:

1. 0 means failure, 1 means success
2. -errno means failure, 0 means success

Although vhost mostly uses #1, it does not do so consistently.
umem_access_ok() uses #2.

This patch changes the return type from int to bool so that false means
failure and true means success.  This eliminates a potential source of
errors.

Commit d65026c6c62e7d9616c8ceb5a53b68bcdc050525 ("vhost: validate log
when IOTLB is enabled") introduced a regression.  The logic was
originally:

  if (vq-&gt;iotlb)
      return 1;
  return A &amp;&amp; B;

After the patch the short-circuit logic for A was inverted:

  if (A || vq-&gt;iotlb)
      return A;
  return B;

This patch fixes the regression by rewriting the checks in the obvious
way, no longer returning A when vq-&gt;iotlb is non-NULL (which is hard to
understand).

vhost_copy_to_user is used to copy vring used elements to userspace.
We should use VHOST_ADDR_USED instead of VHOST_ADDR_DESC.

Vq log_base is the userspace address of bitmap which has nothing to do
with IOTLB. So it needs to be validated unconditionally otherwise we
may try use 0 as log_base which may lead to pin pages that will lead
unexpected result (e.g trigger BUG_ON() in set_bit_to_user()).

We tried to remove vq poll from wait queue, but do not check whether
or not it was in a list before. This will lead double free. Fixing
this by switching to use vhost_poll_stop() which zeros poll-&gt;wqh after
removing poll from waitqueue to make sure it won't be freed twice.

Clang is particularly anal about signed vs unsigned comparisons and
doesn't like the fact that some ioctl numbers set the MSB, so we get
this error when trying to build vhost on aarch64:

drivers/vhost/vhost.c:1400:7: error: overflow converting case value to
 switch condition type (3221794578 to 18446744072636378898)
 [-Werror, -Wswitch]
        case VHOST_GET_VRING_BASE:

3221794578 is 0xC008AF12 in hex
18446744072636378898 is 0xFFFFFFFFC008AF12 in hex

Fix this by using unsigned ints in the function signature for
vhost_vring_ioctl().

<title>vfs: do bulk POLL* -&gt; EPOLL* replacement</title>

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.
