2021-11-12block: introduce multi-page bvec helpersMing Lei1-3/+27
commit 3d75ca0adef4280650c6690a0c4702a74a6f3c95 upstream. This patch introduces helpers of 'mp_bvec_iter_*' for multi-page bvec support. The introduced helpers treate one bvec as real multi-page segment, which may include more than one pages. The existed helpers of bvec_iter_* are interfaces for supporting current bvec iterator which is thought as single-page by drivers, fs, dm and etc. These introduced helpers will build single-page bvec in flight, so this way won't break current bio/bvec users, which needn't any change. Follows some multi-page bvec background: - bvecs stored in bio->bi_io_vec is always multi-page style - bvec(struct bio_vec) represents one physically contiguous I/O buffer, now the buffer may include more than one page after multi-page bvec is supported, and all these pages represented by one bvec is physically contiguous. Before multi-page bvec support, at most one page is included in one bvec, we call it single-page bvec. - .bv_page of the bvec points to the 1st page in the multi-page bvec - .bv_offset of the bvec is the offset of the buffer in the bvec The effect on the current drivers/filesystem/dm/bcache/...: - almost everyone supposes that one bvec only includes one single page, so we keep the sp interface not changed, for example, bio_for_each_segment() still returns single-page bvec - bio_for_each_segment_all() will return single-page bvec too - during iterating, iterator variable(struct bvec_iter) is always updated in multi-page bvec style, and bvec_iter_advance() is kept not changed - returned(copied) single-page bvec is built in flight by bvec helpers from the stored multi-page bvec Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Zubin Mithra <zsm@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-09-09block: allow for_each_bvec to support zero len bvecMing Lei1-1/+8
commit 7e24969022cbd61ddc586f14824fc205661bb124 upstream. Block layer usually doesn't support or allow zero-length bvec. Since commit 1bdc76aea115 ("iov_iter: use bvec iterator to implement iterate_bvec()"), iterate_bvec() switches to bvec iterator. However, Al mentioned that 'Zero-length segments are not disallowed' in iov_iter. Fixes for_each_bvec() so that it can move on after seeing one zero length bvec.

2017-07-04bio: add bvec_iter rewind APIDmitry Monakhov1-0/+27
Some ->bi_end_io handlers (for example: pi_verify or decrypt handlers) need to know original data vector, but after bio traverse io-stack it may be advanced, splited and relocated many times so it is hard to guess original iterator. Let's add 'bi_done' conter which accounts number of bytes iterator was advanced during it's evolution. Later end_io handler may easily restore original iterator by rewinding iterator to iter->bi_done. Note: this change makes sizeof (struct bvec_iter) multiple to 8 Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> [hch: switched to true/false return] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2017-07-04block: guard bvec iteration logicDmitry Monakhov1-5/+9
Currently if some one try to advance bvec beyond it's size we simply dump WARN_ONCE and continue to iterate beyond bvec array boundaries. This simply means that we endup dereferencing/corrupting random memory region. Sane reaction would be to propagate error back to calling context But bvec_iter_advance's calling context is not always good for error handling. For safity reason let truncate iterator size to zero which will break external iteration loop which prevent us from unpredictable memory range corruption. And even it caller ignores an error, it will corrupt it's own bvecs, not others. This patch does: - Return error back to caller with hope that it will react on this - Truncate iterator size Code was added long time ago here 4550dd6c, luckily no one hit it in real life :) Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Reviewed-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Martin K.

2016-08-11bvec: avoid variable shadowing warningJohannes Berg1-1/+2
Due to the (indirect) nesting of min(..., min(...)), sparse will show a variable shadowing warning whenever bvec.h is included. Avoid that by assigning the inner min() to a temporary variable first. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-06-09block: mark 1st parameter of bvec_iter_advance as constMing Lei1-1/+2
bvec_iter_advance() only writes the parameter of iterator, so the base address of bvec can be marked as const safely. Without the change, we can see compiling warning in the following patch for implementing iterate_bvec(): lib/iov_iter.c with bvec iterator.

2016-06-09block: move two bvec structure into bvec.hMing Lei1-1/+22
This patch moves 'struct bio_vec' and 'struct bvec_iter' into 'include/linux/bvec.h', then always include this header into 'include/linux/blk_types.h'. With this change, both 'struct bvec_iter' and bvec iterator helpers don't depend on CONFIG_BLOCK any more, then we can use bvec iterator to implement iterate_bvec(): lib/iov_iter.c.

2016-06-09block: move bvec iterator into include/linux/bvec.hMing Lei1-0/+74
bvec iterator helpers should be used to implement by iterate_bvec():lib/iov_iter.c too, and move them into one header, so that we can keep bvec iterator header out of CONFIG_BLOCK. Then we can remove the reinventing of wheel in iterate_bvec().
