Add the helper rpc_cancel_tasks(), which uses a caller-defined selection
function to define a set of in-flight RPC calls to cancel. This is
mainly intended for pNFS drivers which are subject to a layout recall,
and which may therefore want to cancel all pending I/O using that layout
in order to redrive it after the layout recall has been satisfied.

The dust has settled a bit and it's become obvious what code is
totally common between nfsd_init_dirlist_pages() and
nfsd3_init_dirlist_pages(). Move that common code to SUNRPC.

The new helper brackets the existing xdr_init_decode_pages() API.

<title>SUNRPC: Parametrize how much of argsize should be zeroed</title>

<id>urn:sha1:103cc1fafee48adb91fca0e19deb869fd23e46ab</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, SUNRPC clears the whole of .pc_argsize before processing
each incoming RPC transaction. Add an extra parameter to struct
svc_procedure to enable upper layers to reduce the amount of each
operation's argument structure that is zeroed by SUNRPC.

The size of struct nfsd4_compoundargs, in particular, is a lot to
clear on each incoming RPC Call. A subsequent patch will cut this
down to something closer to what NFSv2 and NFSv3 uses.

This patch should cause no behavior changes.

Commit 2825a7f90753 ("nfsd4: allow encoding across page boundaries")
added an explicit computation of the remaining length in the rq_res
XDR buffer.

The computation appears to suffer from an "off-by-one" bug. Because
buflen is too large by one page, XDR encoding can run off the end of
the send buffer by eventually trying to use the struct page address
in rq_page_end, which always contains NULL.

<content type='text'>
Ensure that stream-based argument decoding can't go past the actual
end of the receive buffer. xdr_init_decode's calculation of the
value of xdr-&gt;end over-estimates the end of the buffer because the
Linux kernel RPC server code does not remove the size of the RPC
header from rqstp-&gt;rq_arg before calling the upper layer's
dispatcher.

The server-side still uses the svc_getnl() macros to decode the
RPC call header. These macros reduce the length of the head iov
but do not update the total length of the message in the buffer
(buf-&gt;len).

A proper fix for this would be to replace the use of svc_getnl() and
friends in the RPC header decoder, but that would be a large and
invasive change that would be difficult to backport.

<title>freezer,sched: Rewrite core freezer logic</title>

<content type='text'>
Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.

By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.

As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).

Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:

	freezer_do_not_count();
	schedule();
	freezer_count();

And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.

However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.

That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.

This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.

As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:

	TASK_FREEZABLE	-&gt; TASK_FROZEN
	__TASK_STOPPED	-&gt; TASK_FROZEN
	__TASK_TRACED	-&gt; TASK_FROZEN

The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).

The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in -&gt;jobctl.

With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.
