fs: use splice_copy_file_range() inline helper

2023-12-12T15:20:02+00:00

generic_copy_file_range() is just a wrapper around splice_file_range(), which caps the maximum copy length. The only caller of splice_file_range(), namely __ceph_copy_file_range() is already ready to cope with short copy. Move the length capping into splice_file_range() and replace the exported symbol generic_copy_file_range() with a simple inline helper.

splice: return type ssize_t from all helpers

2023-12-12T15:19:59+00:00

Not sure why some splice helpers return long, maybe historic reasons. Change them all to return ssize_t to conform to the splice methods and to the rest of the helpers.

fs: fork splice_file_range() from do_splice_direct()

2023-12-01T10:39:50+00:00

In preparation of calling do_splice_direct() without file_start_write() held, create a new helper splice_file_range(), to be called from context of ->copy_file_range() methods instead of do_splice_direct(). Currently, the only difference is that splice_file_range() does not take flags argument and that it asserts that file_start_write() is held, but we factor out a common helper do_splice_direct_actor() that will be used later. Use the new helper from __ceph_copy_file_range(), that was incorrectly passing to do_splice_direct() the copy flags argument as splice flags. The value of copy flags in ceph is always 0, so it is a smenatic bug fix. Move the declaration of both helpers to linux/splice.h.

Pull networking changes from Jakub Kicinski: "WiFi 7 and sendpage changes are the biggest pieces of work for this release. The latter will definitely require fixes but I think that we got it to a reasonable point. Core: - Rework the sendpage & splice implementations Instead of feeding data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg handlers to support taking a reference on the data, controlled by a new flag called MSG_SPLICE_PAGES Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file to invoke an additional callback instead of trying to predict what the right combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely - Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid - Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT - Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker - Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families Protocols: - Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to tcp_rmem[2] - Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy - Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags - Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative - Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info (MPTCP_FULL_INFO) - Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have a full record - Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving the way to issuing ioctls over io_uring - Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address - Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch - PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable - Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client (ipconfig) - Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers (e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge) - Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets - Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their printk level to debug - HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto - Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4 - Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7 BPF: - Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used, or in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs, especially those using open-coded iterators - Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data. But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what the output buffer *should* be, without writing anything - Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers - Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper - Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands - Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark maps as read-only) - Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo - Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are self-explanatory): - Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(), bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size() and bpf_dynptr_clone(). - bpf_task_under_cgroup() - bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets - bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs Netfilter: - Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables.

splice, net: Add a splice_eof op to file-ops and socket-ops

2023-06-09T02:40:30+00:00

Add an optional method, ->splice_eof(), to allow splice to indicate the premature termination of a splice to struct file_operations and struct proto_ops. This is called if sendfile() or splice() encounters all of the following conditions inside splice_direct_to_actor(): (1) the user did not set SPLICE_F_MORE (splice only), and (2) an EOF condition occurred (->splice_read() returned 0), and (3) we haven't read enough to fulfill the request (ie. len > 0 still), and (4) we have already spliced at least one byte. A further patch will modify the behaviour of SPLICE_F_MORE to always be passed to the actor if either the user set it or we haven't yet read sufficient data to fulfill the request.

splice, net: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) rather than ->sendpage()

2023-06-09T02:40:30+00:00

Replace generic_splice_sendpage() + splice_from_pipe + pipe_to_sendpage() with a net-specific handler, splice_to_socket(), that calls sendmsg() with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES set instead of calling ->sendpage(). MSG_MORE is used to indicate if the sendmsg() is expected to be followed with more data. This allows multiple pipe-buffer pages to be passed in a single call in a BVEC iterator, allowing the processing to be pushed down to a loop in the protocol driver. This helps pave the way for passing multipage folios down too. Protocols that haven't been converted to handle MSG_SPLICE_PAGES yet should just ignore it and do a normal sendmsg() for now - although that may be a bit slower as it may copy everything.

splice: change exported internal do_splice() helper to take kernel offset

2020-10-22T20:15:51+00:00

With the set_fs change, we can no longer rely on copy_{to,from}_user() accepting a kernel pointer, and it was bad form to do so anyway. Clean this up and change the internal helper that io_uring uses to deal with kernel pointers instead. This puts the offset copy in/out in __do_splice() instead, which just calls the same helper.
