Merge v6.2-rc6 into drm-next

Due to holidays we started -next with more -fixes in-flight than
usual, and people have been asking where they are. Backmerge to get
things better in sync.

Conflicts:
- Tiny conflict in drm_fbdev_generic.c between variable rename and
missing error handling that got added.
- Conflict in drm_fb_helper.c between the added call to vgaswitcheroo
in drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe and a refactor patch that extracted
lots of helpers and incidentally removed the dev local variable.
Readd it to make things compile.

David Howells says:

====================
rxrpc: Fix race between call connection, data transmit and call disconnect

Here are patches to fix an oops[1] caused by a race between call
connection, initial packet transmission and call disconnection which
results in something like:

kernel BUG at net/rxrpc/peer_object.c:413!

when the syzbot test is run. The problem is that the connection procedure
is effectively split across two threads and can get expanded by taking an
interrupt, thereby adding the call to the peer error distribution list
*after* it has been disconnected (say by the rxrpc socket shutting down).

The easiest solution is to look at the fourth set of I/O thread
conversion/SACK table expansion patches that didn't get applied[2] and take
from it those patches that move call connection and disconnection into the
I/O thread. Moving these things into the I/O thread means that the
sequencing is managed by all being done in the same thread - and the race
can no longer happen.

This is preferable to introducing an extra lock as adding an extra lock
would make the I/O thread have to wait for the app thread in yet another
place.

The changes can be considered as a number of logical parts:

(1) Move all of the call state changes into the I/O thread.

(2) Make client connection ID space per-local endpoint so that the I/O
thread doesn't need locks to access it.

(3) Move actual abort generation into the I/O thread and clean it up. If
sendmsg or recvmsg want to cause an abort, they have to delegate it.

(4) Offload the setting up of the security context on a connection to the
thread of one of the apps that's starting a call. We don't want to be
doing any sort of crypto in the I/O thread.

(5) Connect calls (ie. assign them to channel slots on connections) in the
I/O thread. Calls are set up by sendmsg/kafs and passed to the I/O
thread to connect. Connections are allocated in the I/O thread after
this.

(6) Disconnect calls in the I/O thread.

I've also added a patch for an unrelated bug that cropped up during
testing, whereby a race can occur between an incoming call and socket
shutdown.

Note that whilst this fixes the original syzbot bug, another bug may get
triggered if this one is fixed:

INFO: rcu detected stall in corrupted
rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected expedited stalls on CPUs/tasks: { P5792 } 2657 jiffies s: 2825 root: 0x0/T
rcu: blocking rcu_node structures (internal RCU debug):

It doesn't look this should be anything to do with rxrpc, though, as I've
tested an additional patch[3] that removes practically all the RCU usage
from rxrpc and it still occurs. It seems likely that it is being caused by
something in the tunnelling setup that the syzbot test does, but there's
not enough info to go on. It also seems unlikely to be anything to do with
the afs driver as the test doesn't use that.

rxrpc: Move client call connection to the I/O thread

Move the connection setup of client calls to the I/O thread so that a whole
load of locking and barrierage can be eliminated. This necessitates the
app thread waiting for connection to complete before it can begin
encrypting data.

This also completes the fix for a race that exists between call connection
and call disconnection whereby the data transmission code adds the call to
the peer error distribution list after the call has been disconnected (say
by the rxrpc socket getting closed).

The fix is to complete the process of moving call connection, data
transmission and call disconnection into the I/O thread and thus forcibly
serialising them.

Note that the issue may predate the overhaul to an I/O thread model that
were included in the merge window for v6.2, but the timing is very much
changed by the change given below.

Merge tag 'rxrpc-next-20221201-b' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs

David Howells says:

====================
rxrpc: Increasing SACK size and moving away from softirq, parts 2 & 3

Here are the second and third parts of patches in the process of moving
rxrpc from doing a lot of its stuff in softirq context to doing it in an
I/O thread in process context and thereby making it easier to support a
larger SACK table.

The full description is in the description for the first part[1] which is
already in net-next.

The second part includes some cleanups, adds some testing and overhauls
some tracing:

(1) Remove declaration of rxrpc_kernel_call_is_complete() as the
definition is no longer present.

(2) Remove the knet() and kproto() macros in favour of using tracepoints.

(3) Remove handling of duplicate packets from recvmsg. The input side
isn't now going to insert overlapping/duplicate packets into the
recvmsg queue.

(4) Don't use the rxrpc_conn_parameters struct in the rxrpc_connection or
rxrpc_bundle structs - rather put the members in directly.

(5) Extract the abort code from a received abort packet right up front
rather than doing it in multiple places later.

(6) Use enums and symbol lists rather than __builtin_return_address() to
indicate where a tracepoint was triggered for local, peer, conn, call
and skbuff tracing.

(7) Add a refcount tracepoint for the rxrpc_bundle struct.

(8) Implement an in-kernel server for the AFS rxperf testing program to
talk to (enabled by a Kconfig option).

This is tagged as rxrpc-next-20221201-a.

The third part introduces the I/O thread and switches various bits over to
running there:

(1) Fix call timers and call and connection workqueues to not hold refs on
the rxrpc_call and rxrpc_connection structs to thereby avoid messy
cleanup when the last ref is put in softirq mode.

(2) Split input.c so that the call packet processing bits are separate
from the received packet distribution bits. Call packet processing
gets bumped over to the call event handler.

(3) Create a per-local endpoint I/O thread. Barring some tiny bits that
still get done in softirq context, all packet reception, processing
and transmission is done in this thread. That will allow a load of
locking to be removed.

(4) Perform packet processing and error processing from the I/O thread.

(5) Provide a mechanism to process call event notifications in the I/O
thread rather than queuing a work item for that call.

(6) Move data and ACK transmission into the I/O thread. ACKs can then be
transmitted at the point they're generated rather than getting
delegated from softirq context to some process context somewhere.

(7) Move call and local processor event handling into the I/O thread.

(8) Move cwnd degradation to after packets have been transmitted so that
they don't shorten the window too quickly.

A bunch of simplifications can then be done:

(1) The input_lock is no longer necessary as exclusion is achieved by
running the code in the I/O thread only.

(2) Don't need to use sk->sk_receive_queue.lock to guard socket state
changes as the socket mutex should suffice.

(3) Don't take spinlocks in RCU callback functions as they get run in
softirq context and thus need _bh annotations.

(4) RCU is then no longer needed for the peer's error_targets list.

(5) Simplify the skbuff handling in the receive path by dropping the ref
in the basic I/O thread loop and getting an extra ref as and when we
need to queue the packet for recvmsg or another context.

(6) Get the peer address earlier in the input process and pass it to the
users so that we only do it once.

Changes:
========
ver #2)
- Added a patch to change four assertions into warnings in rxrpc_read()
and fixed a checker warning from a __user annotation that should have
been removed..
- Change a min() to min_t() in rxperf as PAGE_SIZE doesn't seem to match
type size_t on i386.
- Three error handling issues in rxrpc_new_incoming_call():
- If not DATA or not seq #1, should drop the packet, not abort.
- Fix a goto that went to the wrong place, dropping a non-held lock.
- Fix an rcu_read_lock that should've been an unlock.

rxrpc: Remove the _bh annotation from all the spinlocks

None of the spinlocks in rxrpc need a _bh annotation now as the RCU
callback routines no longer take spinlocks and the bulk of the packet
wrangling code is now run in the I/O thread, not softirq context.
