The series deals with the following issues: (-) By pinning pages, it fixes the race between concurrent DIO read and fork, whereby the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result that the parent might not see the retrieved data. (-) cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the appropriate cleanup. Note that there is the possibility the network transport might, but that's beyond the scope of this patchset. (-) Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators. The first five patches add two facilities to the VM/VFS core, excerpts from my iov-extract branch[1] that are required in order to do the cifs iteratorisation: (*) Future replacements for file-splicing in the form of functions filemap_splice_read() and direct_splice_read(). These allow file splicing to be done without the use of an ITER_PIPE iterator, without the need to take refs on the pages extracted from KVEC/BVEC/XARRAY iterators. This is necessary to use iov_iter_extract_pages(). [!] Note that whilst these are added in core code, they are only used by cifs at this point. (*) Add iov_iter_extract_pages(), a replacement for iov_iter_get_pages*() that uses FOLL_PIN on user pages (IOVEC, UBUF) and doesn't pin kernel pages (BVEC, KVEC, XARRAY). This allows cifs to do the page pinning correctly. [!] Note that whilst this is added in core code, it is only used by cifs at this point - though a corresponding change is made to the flags argument of iov_iter_get_pages*() so that it doesn't take FOLL_* flags, but rather takes iov_iter_extraction_t flags that are translated internally to FOLL_* flags. Then there's a couple of patches to make cifs use the new splice functions. The series continues with a couple of patches that add stuff to netfslib that I want to use there as well as in cifs: (*) Add a netfslib function to extract and pin pages from an ITER_IOBUF or ITER_UBUF iterator into an ITER_BVEC iterator. (*) Add a netfslib function to extract pages from an iterator that's of type ITER_UBUF/IOVEC/BVEC/KVEC/XARRAY and add them to a scatterlist. The cleanup will need to be done as for iov_iter_extract_pages(). BVEC, KVEC and XARRAY iterators can be rendered into elements that span multiple pages. Added to that are some cifs helpers that work with iterators: (*) Add a function to walk through an ITER_BVEC/KVEC/XARRAY iterator and add elements to an RDMA SGE list. Only the DMA addresses are stored, and an element may span multiple pages (say if an xarray contains a multipage folio). (*) Add a function to walk through an ITER_BVEC/KVEC/XARRAY iterator and pass the contents into a shash function. (*) Add functions to walk through an ITER_XARRAY iterator and perform various sorts of cleanup on the folios held therein, to be used on I/O completion. (*) Add a function to read from the transport TCP socket directly into an iterator. Finally come the patches that actually do the work of iteratorising cifs: (*) The main patch. Replace page lists with iterators. It extracts the pages from ITER_UBUF and ITER_IOVEC iterators to an ITER_BVEC iterator, pinning or getting refs on them, before passing them down as the I/O may be done from a worker thread. The iterator is extracted into a scatterlist in order to talk to the crypto interface or to do RDMA. (*) In the cifs RDMA code, extract the iterator into an RDMA SGE[] list, removing the scatterlist intermediate - at least for smbd_send(). There appear to be other ways for cifs to talk to the RDMA layer that don't go through that that I haven't managed to work out. (*) Remove a chunk of now-unused code. (*) Allow DIO to/from KVEC-type iterators.
