This patch introduces a new LSM blob to the block_device structure,
enabling the security subsystem to store security-sensitive data related
to block devices. Currently, for a device mapper's mapped device containing
a dm-verity target, critical security information such as the roothash and
its signing state are not readily accessible. Specifically, while the
dm-verity volume creation process passes the dm-verity roothash and its
signature from userspace to the kernel, the roothash is stored privately
within the dm-verity target, and its signature is discarded
post-verification. This makes it extremely hard for the security subsystem
to utilize these data.
With the addition of the LSM blob to the block_device structure, the
security subsystem can now retain and manage important security metadata
such as the roothash and the signing state of a dm-verity by storing them
inside the blob. Access decisions can then be based on these stored data.
The implementation follows the same approach used for security blobs in
other structures like struct file, struct inode, and struct superblock.
The initialization of the security blob occurs after the creation of the
struct block_device, performed by the security subsystem. Similarly, the
security blob is freed by the security subsystem before the struct
block_device is deallocated or freed.
This patch also introduces a new hook security_bdev_setintegrity() to save
block device's integrity data to the new LSM blob. For example, for
dm-verity, it can use this hook to expose its roothash and signing state
to LSMs, then LSMs can save these data into the LSM blob.
Please note that the new hook should be invoked every time the security
information is updated to keep these data current. For example, in
dm-verity, if the mapping table is reloaded and configured to use a
different dm-verity target with a new roothash and signing information,
the previously stored data in the LSM blob will become obsolete. It is
crucial to re-invoke the hook to refresh these data and ensure they are up
to date. This necessity arises from the design of device-mapper, where a
device-mapper device is first created, and then targets are subsequently
loaded into it. These targets can be modified multiple times during the
device's lifetime. Therefore, while the LSM blob is allocated during the
creation of the block device, its actual contents are not initialized at
this stage and can change substantially over time. This includes
alterations from data that the LSM 'trusts' to those it does not, making
it essential to handle these changes correctly. Failure to address this
dynamic aspect could potentially allow for bypassing LSM checks.

Add atomic write support, as follows:
- add helper functions to get request_queue atomic write limits
- report request_queue atomic write support limits to sysfs and update Doc
- support to safely merge atomic writes
- deal with splitting atomic writes
- misc helper functions
- add a per-request atomic write flag
New request_queue limits are added, as follows:
- atomic_write_hw_max is set by the block driver and is the maximum length
of an atomic write which the device may support. It is not
necessarily a power-of-2.
- atomic_write_max_sectors is derived from atomic_write_hw_max_sectors and
max_hw_sectors. It is always a power-of-2. Atomic writes may be merged,
and atomic_write_max_sectors would be the limit on a merged atomic write
request size. This value is not capped at max_sectors, as the value in
max_sectors can be controlled from userspace, and it would only cause
trouble if userspace could limit atomic_write_unit_max_bytes and the
other atomic write limits.
- atomic_write_hw_unit_{min,max} are set by the block driver and are the
min/max length of an atomic write unit which the device may support. They
both must be a power-of-2. Typically atomic_write_hw_unit_max will hold
the same value as atomic_write_hw_max.
- atomic_write_unit_{min,max} are derived from
atomic_write_hw_unit_{min,max}, max_hw_sectors, and block core limits.
Both min and max values must be a power-of-2.
- atomic_write_hw_boundary is set by the block driver. If non-zero, it
indicates an LBA space boundary at which an atomic write straddles no
longer is atomically executed by the disk. The value must be a
power-of-2. Note that it would be acceptable to enforce a rule that
atomic_write_hw_boundary_sectors is a multiple of
atomic_write_hw_unit_max, but the resultant code would be more
complicated.
All atomic writes limits are by default set 0 to indicate no atomic write
support. Even though it is assumed by Linux that a logical block can always
be atomically written, we ignore this as it is not of particular interest.
Stacked devices are just not supported either for now.
An atomic write must always be submitted to the block driver as part of a
single request. As such, only a single BIO must be submitted to the block
layer for an atomic write. When a single atomic write BIO is submitted, it
cannot be split. As such, atomic_write_unit_{max, min}_bytes are limited
by the maximum guaranteed BIO size which will not be required to be split.
This max size is calculated by request_queue max segments and the number
of bvecs a BIO can fit, BIO_MAX_VECS. Currently we rely on userspace
issuing a write with iovcnt=1 for pwritev2() - as such, we can rely on each
segment containing PAGE_SIZE of data, apart from the first+last, which each
can fit logical block size of data. The first+last will be LBS
length/aligned as we rely on direct IO alignment rules also.
New sysfs files are added to report the following atomic write limits:
- atomic_write_unit_max_bytes - same as atomic_write_unit_max_sectors in
bytes
- atomic_write_unit_min_bytes - same as atomic_write_unit_min_sectors in
bytes
- atomic_write_boundary_bytes - same as atomic_write_hw_boundary_sectors in
bytes
- atomic_write_max_bytes - same as atomic_write_max_sectors in bytes
Atomic writes may only be merged with other atomic writes and only under
the following conditions:
- total resultant request length <= atomic_write_max_bytes
- the merged write does not straddle a boundary
Helper function bdev_can_atomic_write() is added to indicate whether
atomic writes may be issued to a bdev. If a bdev is a partition, the
partition start must be aligned with both atomic_write_unit_min_sectors
and atomic_write_hw_boundary_sectors.
FSes will rely on the block layer to validate that an atomic write BIO
submitted will be of valid size, so add blk_validate_atomic_write_op_size()
for this purpose. Userspace expects an atomic write which is of invalid
size to be rejected with -EINVAL, so add BLK_STS_INVAL for this. Also use
BLK_STS_INVAL for when a BIO needs to be split, as this should mean an
invalid size BIO.
Flag REQ_ATOMIC is used for indicating an atomic write.

All EV4 machines are already gone, and the remaining EV5 based machines
all support the slightly more modern EV56 generation as well.
Debian only supports EV56 and later.
Drop both of these and build kernels optimized for EV56 and higher
when the "generic" options is selected, tuning for an out-of-order
EV6 pipeline, same as Debian userspace.
Since this was the only supported architecture without 8-bit and
16-bit stores, common kernel code no longer has to worry about
aligning struct members, and existing workarounds from the block
and tty layers can be removed.
The alpha memory management code no longer needs an abstraction
for the differences between EV4 and EV5+.

NOTE: this commit does not actually move any flags over there - they
are still bool fields. As the result, it shifts the fields wrt

Given that zone write plugging manages all writes to zones of a zoned
block device and tracks the write pointer position of all zones that are
not full nor empty, emulating zone append operations using regular
writes can be implemented generically, without relying on the underlying
device driver to implement such emulation. This is needed for devices
that do not natively support the zone append command (e.g. SMR
hard-disks).
A device may request zone append emulation by setting its
max_zone_append_sectors queue limit to 0. For such device, the function
blk_zone_wplug_prepare_bio() changes zone append BIOs into
non-mergeable regular write BIOs. Modified zone append BIOs are flagged
with the new BIO flag BIO_EMULATES_ZONE_APPEND. This flag is checked
on completion of the BIO in blk_zone_write_plug_bio_endio() to restore
the original REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND operation code of the BIO.
The block layer internal inline helper function bio_is_zone_append() is
added to test if a BIO is either a native zone append operation
(REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND operation code) or if it is flagged with
BIO_EMULATES_ZONE_APPEND. Given that both native and emulated zone
append BIO completion handling should be similar, The functions
blk_update_request() and blk_zone_complete_request_bio() are modified to
use bio_is_zone_append() to execute blk_zone_update_request_bio() for
both native and emulated zone append operations.

Zone write plugging implements a per-zone "plug" for write operations
to control the submission and execution order of write operations to
sequential write required zones of a zoned block device. Per-zone
plugging guarantees that at any time there is at most only one write
request per zone being executed. This mechanism is intended to replace
zone write locking which implements a similar per-zone write throttling
at the scheduler level, but is implemented only by mq-deadline.
Unlike zone write locking which operates on requests, zone write
plugging operates on BIOs. A zone write plug is simply a BIO list that
is atomically manipulated using a spinlock and a kblockd submission
work. A write BIO to a zone is "plugged" to delay its execution if a
write BIO for the same zone was already issued, that is, if a write
request for the same zone is being executed. The next plugged BIO is
unplugged and issued once the write request completes.
This mechanism allows to:
- Untangle zone write ordering from block IO schedulers. This allows
removing the restriction on using mq-deadline for writing to zoned
block devices. Any block IO scheduler, including "none" can be used.
- Zone write plugging operates on BIOs instead of requests. Plugged
BIOs waiting for execution thus do not hold scheduling tags and thus
are not preventing other BIOs from executing (reads or writes to
other zones). Depending on the workload, this can significantly
improve the device use (higher queue depth operation) and
performance.
- Both blk-mq (request based) zoned devices and BIO-based zoned devices
(e.g. device mapper) can use zone write plugging. It is mandatory
for the former but optional for the latter. BIO-based drivers can
use zone write plugging to implement write ordering guarantees, or
the drivers can implement their own if needed.
- The code is less invasive in the block layer and is mostly limited to
blk-zoned.c with some small changes in blk-mq.c, blk-merge.c and
bio.c.
Zone write plugging is implemented using struct blk_zone_wplug. This
structure includes a spinlock, a BIO list and a work structure to
handle the submission of plugged BIOs. Zone write plugs structures are
managed using a per-disk hash table.
Plugging of zone write BIOs is done using the function
blk_zone_write_plug_bio() which returns false if a BIO execution does
not need to be delayed and true otherwise. This function is called
from blk_mq_submit_bio() after a BIO is split to avoid large BIOs
spanning multiple zones which would cause mishandling of zone write
plugs. This ichange enables by default zone write plugging for any mq
request-based block device. BIO-based device drivers can also use zone
write plugging by expliclty calling blk_zone_write_plug_bio() in their
->submit_bio method. For such devices, the driver must ensure that a
BIO passed to blk_zone_write_plug_bio() is already split and not
straddling zone boundaries.
Only write and write zeroes BIOs are plugged. Zone write plugging does
not introduce any significant overhead for other operations. A BIO that
is being handled through zone write plugging is flagged using the new
BIO flag BIO_ZONE_WRITE_PLUGGING. A request handling a BIO flagged with
this new flag is flagged with the new RQF_ZONE_WRITE_PLUGGING flag.
The completion of BIOs and requests flagged trigger respectively calls
to the functions blk_zone_write_bio_endio() and
blk_zone_write_complete_request(). The latter function is used to
trigger submission of the next plugged BIO using the zone plug work.
blk_zone_write_bio_endio() does the same for BIO-based devices.
This ensures that at any time, at most one request (blk-mq devices) or
one BIO (BIO-based devices) is being executed for any zone. The
handling of zone write plugs using a per-zone plug spinlock maximizes
parallelism and device usage by allowing multiple zones to be writen
simultaneously without lock contention.
Zone write plugging ignores flush BIOs without data. Hovever, any flush
BIO that has data is always plugged so that the write part of the flush
sequence is serialized with other regular writes.
Given that any BIO handled through zone write plugging will be the only
BIO in flight for the target zone when it is executed, the unplugging
and submission of a BIO will have no chance of successfully merging with
plugged requests or requests in the scheduler. To overcome this
potential performance degradation, blk_mq_submit_bio() calls the
function blk_zone_write_plug_attempt_merge() to try to merge other
plugged BIOs with the one just unplugged and submitted. Successful
merging is signaled using blk_zone_write_plug_bio_merged(), called from
bio_attempt_back_merge(). Furthermore, to avoid recalculating the number
of segments of plugged BIOs to attempt merging, the number of segments
of a plugged BIO is saved using the new struct bio field
__bi_nr_segments. To avoid growing the size of struct bio, this field is
added as a union with the bio_cookie field. This is safe to do as
polling is always disabled for plugged BIOs.
When BIOs are plugged in a zone write plug, the device request queue
usage counter is always incremented. This reference is kept and reused
for blk-mq devices when the plugged BIO is unplugged and submitted
again using submit_bio_noacct_nocheck(). For this case, the unplugged
BIO is already flagged with BIO_ZONE_WRITE_PLUGGING and
blk_mq_submit_bio() proceeds directly to allocating a new request for
the BIO, re-using the usage reference count taken when the BIO was
plugged. This extra reference count is dropped in
blk_zone_write_plug_attempt_merge() for any plugged BIO that is
successfully merged. Given that BIO-based devices will not take this
path, the extra reference is dropped after a plugged BIO is unplugged
and submitted.
Zone write plugs are dynamically allocated and managed using a hash
table (an array of struct hlist_head) with RCU protection.
A zone write plug is allocated when a write BIO is received for the
zone and not freed until the zone is fully written, reset or finished.
To detect when a zone write plug can be freed, the write state of each
zone is tracked using a write pointer offset which corresponds to the
offset of a zone write pointer relative to the zone start. Write
operations always increment this write pointer offset. Zone reset
operations set it to 0 and zone finish operations set it to the zone
size.
If a write error happens, the wp_offset value of a zone write plug may
become incorrect and out of sync with the device managed write pointer.
This is handled using the zone write plug flag BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_ERROR.
The function blk_zone_wplug_handle_error() is called from the new disk
zone write plug work when this flag is set. This function executes a
report zone to update the zone write pointer offset to the current
value as indicated by the device. The disk zone write plug work is
scheduled whenever a BIO flagged with BIO_ZONE_WRITE_PLUGGING completes
with an error or when bio_zone_wplug_prepare_bio() detects an unaligned
write. Once scheduled, the disk zone write plugs work keeps running
until all zone errors are handled.
To match the new data structures used for zoned disks, the function
disk_free_zone_bitmaps() is renamed to the more generic
disk_free_zone_resources(). The function disk_init_zone_resources() is
also introduced to initialize zone write plugs resources when a gendisk
is allocated.
In order to guarantee that the user can simultaneously write up to a
number of zones equal to a device max active zone limit or max open zone
limit, zone write plugs are allocated using a mempool sized to the
maximum of these 2 device limits. For a device that does not have
active and open zone limits, 128 is used as the default mempool size.
If a change to the device active and open zone limits is detected, the
disk mempool is resized when blk_revalidate_disk_zones() is executed.

Restore support for passing data lifetime information from filesystems to
block drivers. This patch reverts commit b179c98f7697 ("block: Remove
request.write_hint") and commit c75e707fe1aa ("block: remove the
per-bio/request write hint").
This patch does not modify the size of struct bio because the new
bi_write_hint member fills a hole in struct bio. pahole reports the
following for struct bio on an x86_64 system with this patch applied:
/* size: 112, cachelines: 2, members: 20 */
/* sum members: 110, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */
/* last cacheline: 48 bytes */

In preparation for moving time keeping into blk.h, move the cgroup
related code for timestamps in here too. This will help avoid a circular
dependency, and also moves it into a more appropriate header as this one
is private to the block layer code.
Leave struct bio_issue in blk_types.h as it's a proper time definition.

Pull vfs super updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the super work for this cycle including the long-awaited
series by Jan to make it possible to prevent writing to mounted block
devices:
- Writing to mounted devices is dangerous and can lead to filesystem
corruption as well as crashes. Furthermore syzbot comes with more
and more involved examples how to corrupt block device under a
mounted filesystem leading to kernel crashes and reports we can do
nothing about. Add tracking of writers to each block device and a
kernel cmdline argument which controls whether other writeable
opens to block devices open with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES flag are
allowed.
Note that this effectively only prevents modification of the
particular block device's page cache by other writers. The actual
device content can still be modified by other means - e.g. by
issuing direct scsi commands, by doing writes through devices lower
in the storage stack (e.g. in case loop devices, DM, or MD are
involved) etc. But blocking direct modifications of the block
device page cache is enough to give filesystems a chance to perform
data validation when loading data from the underlying storage and
thus prevent kernel crashes.
Syzbot can use this cmdline argument option to avoid uninteresting
crashes. Also users whose userspace setup does not need writing to
mounted block devices can set this option for hardening. We expect
that this will be interesting to quite a few workloads.
Btrfs is currently opted out of this because they still haven't
merged patches we require for this to work from three kernel
releases ago.
- Reimplement block device freezing and thawing as holder operations
on the block device.
This allows us to extend block device freezing to all devices
associated with a superblock and not just the main device. It also
allows us to remove get_active_super() and thus another function
that scans the global list of superblocks.
Freezing via additional block devices only works if the filesystem
chooses to use @fs_holder_ops for these additional devices as well.
That currently only includes ext4 and xfs.
Earlier releases switched get_tree_bdev() and mount_bdev() to use
@fs_holder_ops. The remaining nilfs2 open-coded version of
mount_bdev() has been converted to rely on @fs_holder_ops as well.
So block device freezing for the main block device will continue to
work as before.
There should be no regressions in functionality. The only special
case is btrfs where block device freezing for the main block device
never worked because sb->s_bdev isn't set. Block device freezing
for btrfs can be fixed once they can switch to @fs_holder_ops but
that can happen whenever they're ready"

submit_bio_noacct allows completely invalid operations, or operations
that are not supported in the bio path. Extent the existing switch
statement to rejcect all invalid types.
Move the code point for REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND so that it's not right in the
middle of the zone management operations and the switch statement can
follow the numerical order of the operations.

The .bd_inode field of block_device is used in IO fast path of
blkdev_write_iter() and blkdev_llseek(), so it is more efficient to keep
it into the 1st cacheline.
.bd_openers is only touched in open()/close(), and .bd_size_lock is only
for updating bdev capacity, which is in slow path too.
So swap .bd_inode layout with .bd_openers & .bd_size_lock to move
.bd_inode into the 1st cache line.

The old method of implementing block device freeze and thaw operations
required us to rely on get_active_super() to walk the list of all
superblocks on the system to find any superblock that might use the
block device. This is wasteful and not very pleasant overall.
Now that we can finally go straight from block device to owning
superblock things become way simpler.
