iov_iter: fix iov_iter_type

2019-05-01T14:38:47Z

Commit 875f1d0769cd ("iov_iter: add ITER_BVEC_FLAG_NO_REF flag") introduces one extra flag of ITER_BVEC_FLAG_NO_REF, and this flag is stored into iter->type. However, iov_iter_type() doesn't consider the new added flag, fix it by masking this flag in iov_iter_type().

Merge tag 'io_uring-20190323' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2019-03-23T17:25:12Z

Pull io_uring fixes and improvements from Jens Axboe: "The first five in this series are heavily inspired by the work Al did on the aio side to fix the races there. The last two re-introduce a feature that was in io_uring before it got merged, but which I pulled since we didn't have a good way to have BVEC iters that already have a stable reference. These aren't necessarily related to block, it's just how io_uring pins fixed buffers" * tag 'io_uring-20190323' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: block: add BIO_NO_PAGE_REF flag iov_iter: add ITER_BVEC_FLAG_NO_REF flag io_uring: mark me as the maintainer io_uring: retry bulk slab allocs as single allocs io_uring: fix poll races io_uring: fix fget/fput handling io_uring: add prepped flag io_uring: make io_read/write return an integer io_uring: use regular request ref counts

iov_iter: add ITER_BVEC_FLAG_NO_REF flag

2019-03-18T16:44:48Z

For ITER_BVEC, if we're holding on to kernel pages, the caller doesn't need to grab a reference to the bvec pages, and drop that same reference on IO completion. This is essentially safe for any ITER_BVEC, but some use cases end up reusing pages and uncondtionally dropping a page reference on completion. And example of that is sendfile(2), that ends up being a splice_in + splice_out on the pipe pages. Add a flag that tells us it's fine to not grab a page reference to the bvec pages, since that caller knows not to drop a reference when it's done with the pages. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

iov_iter: introduce hash_and_copy_to_iter helper

2018-12-13T08:58:54Z

Allow consumers that want to use iov iterator helpers and also update a predefined hash calculation online when copying data. This is useful when copying incoming network buffers to a local iterator and calculate a digest on the incoming stream. nvme-tcp host driver that will be introduced in following patches is the first consumer via skb_copy_and_hash_datagram_iter.

iov_iter: pass void csum pointer to csum_and_copy_to_iter

2018-12-13T08:58:53Z

The single caller to csum_and_copy_to_iter is skb_copy_and_csum_datagram and we are trying to unite its logic with skb_copy_datagram_iter by passing a callback to the copy function that we want to apply. Thus, we need to make the checksum pointer private to the function. Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Sagi Grimberg Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

iov_iter: Add I/O discard iterator

2018-10-23T23:41:07Z

Add a new iterator, ITER_DISCARD, that can only be used in READ mode and just discards any data copied to it. This is useful in a network filesystem for discarding any unwanted data sent by a server. Signed-off-by: David Howells

iov_iter: Separate type from direction and use accessor functions

2018-10-23T23:41:07Z

In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places. Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions. Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function. The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required. Signed-off-by: David Howells

iov_iter: Use accessor function

2018-10-23T23:40:44Z

Use accessor functions to access an iterator's type and direction. This allows for the possibility of using some other method of determining the type of iterator than if-chains with bitwise-AND conditions. Signed-off-by: David Howells
