d9d0b12dc3 UPSTREAM: epoll: add syscall epoll_pwait2
Add syscall epoll_pwait2, an epoll_wait variant with nsec resolution that
replaces int timeout with struct timespec.  It is equivalent otherwise.

    int epoll_pwait2(int fd, struct epoll_event *events,
                     int maxevents,
                     const struct timespec *timeout,
                     const sigset_t *sigset);

The underlying hrtimer is already programmed with nsec resolution.
pselect and ppoll also set nsec resolution timeout with timespec.

The sigset_t in epoll_pwait has a compat variant. epoll_pwait2 needs
the same.

For timespec, only support this new interface on 2038 aware platforms
that define __kernel_timespec_t. So no CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME.

0927c223ca BACKPORT: epoll: convert internal api to timespec64
Patch series "add epoll_pwait2 syscall", v4.

Enable nanosecond timeouts for epoll.

Analogous to pselect and ppoll, introduce an epoll_wait syscall
variant that takes a struct timespec instead of int timeout.

This patch (of 4):

Make epoll more consistent with select/poll: pass along the timeout as
timespec64 pointer.

In anticipation of additional changes affecting all three polling
mechanisms:

- add epoll_pwait2 syscall with timespec semantics,
  and share poll_select_set_timeout implementation.
- compute slack before conversion to absolute time,
  to save one ktime_get_ts64 call.

0a6abfc71e UPSTREAM: fs: add do_epoll_*() helpers; remove internal calls to sys_epoll_*()
Using the helper functions do_epoll_create() and do_epoll_wait() allows us
to remove in-kernel calls to the related syscall functions.

This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

05026731fc UPSTREAM: close_range(): fix the logics in descriptor table trimming
commit 678379e1d4f7443b170939525d3312cfc37bf86b upstream.

Cloning a descriptor table picks the size that would cover all currently
opened files.  That's fine for clone() and unshare(), but for close_range()
there's an additional twist - we clone before we close, and it would be
a shame to have
	close_range(3, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE)
leave us with a huge descriptor table when we are not going to keep
anything past stderr, just because some large file descriptor used to
be open before our call has taken it out.

Unfortunately, it had been dealt with in an inherently racy way -
sane_fdtable_size() gets a "don't copy anything past that" argument
(passed via unshare_fd() and dup_fd()), close_range() decides how much
should be trimmed and passes that to unshare_fd().

The problem is, a range that used to extend to the end of descriptor
table back when close_range() had looked at it might very well have stuff
grown after it by the time dup_fd() has allocated a new files_struct
and started to figure out the capacity of fdtable to be attached to that.

That leads to interesting pathological cases; at the very least it's a
QoI issue, since unshare(CLONE_FILES) is atomic in a sense that it takes
a snapshot of descriptor table one might have observed at some point.
Since CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE close_range() is supposed to be a combination
of unshare(CLONE_FILES) with plain close_range(), ending up with a
weird state that would never occur with unshare(2) is confusing, to put
it mildly.

It's not hard to get rid of - all it takes is passing both ends of the
range down to sane_fdtable_size().  There we are under ->files_lock,
so the race is trivially avoided.

So we do the following:
	* switch close_files() from calling unshare_fd() to calling
dup_fd().
	* undo the calling convention change done to unshare_fd() in
60997c3d45d9 "close_range: add CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE"
	* introduce struct fd_range, pass a pointer to that to dup_fd()
and sane_fdtable_size() instead of "trim everything past that point"
they are currently getting.  NULL means "we are not going to be punching
any holes"; NR_OPEN_MAX is gone.
	* make sane_fdtable_size() use find_last_bit() instead of
open-coding it; it's easier to follow that way.
	* while we are at it, have dup_fd() report errors by returning
ERR_PTR(), no need to use a separate int *errorp argument.

bcaccf5ec8 UPSTREAM: fs: fix fd table size alignment properly
[ Upstream commit d888c83fcec75194a8a48ccd283953bdba7b2550 ]

Jason Donenfeld reports that my commit 1c24a186398f ("fs: fd tables have
to be multiples of BITS_PER_LONG") doesn't work, and the reason is an
embarrassing brown-paper-bag bug.

Yes, we want to align the number of fds to BITS_PER_LONG, and yes, the
reason they might not be aligned is because the incoming 'max_fd'
argument might not be aligned.

But aligining the argument - while simple - will cause a "infinitely
big" maxfd (eg NR_OPEN_MAX) to just overflow to zero.  Which most
definitely isn't what we want either.

The obvious fix was always just to do the alignment last, but I had
moved it earlier just to make the patch smaller and the code look
simpler.  Duh.  It certainly made _me_ look simple.

0cf2f193f7 UPSTREAM: fs: fd tables have to be multiples of BITS_PER_LONG
[ Upstream commit 1c24a186398f59c80adb9a967486b65c1423a59d ]

This has always been the rule: fdtables have several bitmaps in them,
and as a result they have to be sized properly for bitmaps.  We walk
those bitmaps in chunks of 'unsigned long' in serveral cases, but even
when we don't, we use the regular kernel bitops that are defined to work
on arrays of 'unsigned long', not on some byte array.

Now, the distinction between arrays of bytes and 'unsigned long'
normally only really ends up being noticeable on big-endian systems, but
Fedor Pchelkin and Alexey Khoroshilov reported that copy_fd_bitmaps()
could be called with an argument that wasn't even a multiple of
BITS_PER_BYTE.  And then it fails to do the proper copy even on
little-endian machines.

The bug wasn't in copy_fd_bitmap(), but in sane_fdtable_size(), which
didn't actually sanitize the fdtable size sufficiently, and never made
sure it had the proper BITS_PER_LONG alignment.

That's partly because the alignment historically came not from having to
explicitly align things, but simply from previous fdtable sizes, and
from count_open_files(), which counts the file descriptors by walking
them one 'unsigned long' word at a time and thus naturally ends up doing
sizing in the proper 'chunks of unsigned long'.

But with the introduction of close_range(), we now have an external
source of "this is how many files we want to have", and so
sane_fdtable_size() needs to do a better job.

This also adds that explicit alignment to alloc_fdtable(), although
there it is mainly just for documentation at a source code level.  The
arithmetic we do there to pick a reasonable fdtable size already aligns
the result sufficiently.

In fact,clang notices that the added ALIGN() in that function doesn't
actually do anything, and does not generate any extra code for it.

It turns out that gcc ends up confusing itself by combining a previous
constant-sized shift operation with the variable-sized shift operations
in roundup_pow_of_two().  And probably due to that doesn't notice that
the ALIGN() is a no-op.  But that's a (tiny) gcc misfeature that doesn't
matter.  Having the explicit alignment makes sense, and would actually
matter on a 128-bit architecture if we ever go there.

This also adds big comments above both functions about how fdtable sizes
have to have that BITS_PER_LONG alignment.

95a7e38d78 UPSTREAM: alloc_fdtable(): change calling conventions.
[ Upstream commit 1d3b4bec3ce55e0c46cdce7d0402dbd6b4af3a3d ]

First of all, tell it how many slots do we want, not which slot
is wanted.  It makes one caller (dup_fd()) more straightforward
and doesn't harm another (expand_fdtable()).

Furthermore, make it return ERR_PTR() on failure rather than
returning NULL.  Simplifies the callers.

Simplify the size calculation, while we are at it - note that we
always have slots_wanted greater than BITS_PER_LONG.  What the
rules boil down to is
	* use the smallest power of two large enough to give us
that many slots
	* on 32bit skip 64 and 128 - the minimal capacity we want
there is 256 slots (i.e. 1Kb fd array).
	* on 64bit don't skip anything, the minimal capacity is
128 - and we'll never be asked for 64 or less.  128 slots means
1Kb fd array, again.
	* on 128bit, if that ever happens, don't skip anything -
we'll never be asked for 128 or less, so the fd array allocation
will be at least 2Kb.

aa83a2a580 UPSTREAM: file: fix close_range() for unshare+cloexec
syzbot reported a bug when putting the last reference to a tasks file
descriptor table. Debugging this showed we didn't recalculate the
current maximum fd number for CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE | CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC
after we unshared the file descriptors table. So max_fd could exceed the
current fdtable maximum causing us to set excessive bits. As a concrete
example, let's say the user requested everything from fd 4 to ~0UL to be
closed and their current fdtable size is 256 with their highest open fd
being 4. With CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE the caller will end up with a new
fdtable which has room for 64 file descriptors since that is the lowest
fdtable size we accept. But now max_fd will still point to 255 and needs
to be adjusted. Fix this by retrieving the correct maximum fd value in
__range_cloexec().

37ebf19eb1 UPSTREAM: close_range: unshare all fds for CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE | CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC
After introducing CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC syzbot reported a crash when
CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC is specified in conjunction with CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE.
When CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE is specified the caller will receive a private
file descriptor table in case their file descriptor table is currently
shared.

For the case where the caller has requested all file descriptors to be
actually closed via e.g. close_range(3, ~0U, 0) the kernel knows that
the caller does not need any of the file descriptors anymore and will
optimize the close operation by only copying all files in the range from
0 to 3 and no others.

However, if the caller requested CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC together with
CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE the caller wants to still make use of the file
descriptors so the kernel needs to copy all of them and can't optimize.

The original patch didn't account for this and thus could cause oopses
as evidenced by the syzbot report because it assumed that all fds had
been copied. Fix this by handling the CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC case.

4f42a31555 UPSTREAM: fs, close_range: add flag CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC
When the flag CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC is set, close_range doesn't
immediately close the files but it sets the close-on-exec bit.

It is useful for e.g. container runtimes that usually install a
seccomp profile "as late as possible" before execv'ing the container
process itself.  The container runtime could either do:
  1                                  2
- install_seccomp_profile();       - close_range(MIN_FD, MAX_INT, 0);
- close_range(MIN_FD, MAX_INT, 0); - install_seccomp_profile();
- execve(...);                     - execve(...);

Both alternative have some disadvantages.

In the first variant the seccomp_profile cannot block the close_range
syscall, as well as opendir/read/close/... for the fallback on older
kernels.
In the second variant, close_range() can be used only on the fds
that are not going to be needed by the runtime anymore, and it must be
potentially called multiple times to account for the different ranges
that must be closed.

Using close_range(..., ..., CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC) solves these issues.
The runtime is able to use the existing open fds, the seccomp profile
can block close_range() and the syscalls used for its fallback.

48e83a7cbe BACKPORT: close_range: add CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE
One of the use-cases of close_range() is to drop file descriptors just before
execve(). This would usually be expressed in the sequence:

unshare(CLONE_FILES);
close_range(3, ~0U);

as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part of
close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE.

This expands {dup,unshare)_fd() to take a max_fds argument that indicates the
maximum number of file descriptors to copy from the old struct files. When the
user requests that all file descriptors are supposed to be closed via
close_range(min, max) then we can cap via unshare_fd(min) and hence don't need
to do any of the heavy fput() work for everything above min.

The patch makes it so that if CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE is requested and we do in
fact currently share our file descriptor table we create a new private copy.
We then close all fds in the requested range and finally after we're done we
install the new fd table.

7207da3e8e BACKPORT: open: add close_range()
This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a range
of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling task.

I was contacted by FreeBSD as they wanted to have the same close_range()
syscall as we proposed here. We've coordinated this and in the meantime, Kyle
was fast enough to merge close_range() into FreeBSD already in April:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836
and the current plan is to backport close_range() to FreeBSD 12.2 (cf. [2])
once its merged in Linux too. Python is in the process of switching to
close_range() on FreeBSD and they are waiting on us to merge this to switch on

The syscall came up in a recent discussion around the new mount API and
making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During this
discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall (cf. [1]). Note, a
syscall in this manner has been requested by various people over time.

First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task. This
can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):

        /* that exec is sensitive */
        unshare(CLONE_FILES);
        /* we don't want anything past stderr here */
        close_range(3, ~0U);
        execve(....);

The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that file
descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the fact that
we can't just switch them over without massively regressing userspace. For
a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of closing all file
descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service managers, programming
language standard libraries, container managers etc.).
(Please note, unshare(CLONE_FILES) should only be needed if the calling
task is multi-threaded and shares the file descriptor table with another
thread in which case two threads could race with one thread allocating file
descriptors and the other one closing them via close_range(). For the
general case close_range() before the execve() is sufficient.)

Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on each
file descriptor. From looking at various large(ish) userspace code bases
this or similar patterns are very common in:
- service managers (cf. [4])
- libcs (cf. [6])
- container runtimes (cf. [5])
- programming language runtimes/standard libraries
  - Python (cf. [2])
  - Rust (cf. [7], [8])
As Dmitry pointed out there's even a long-standing glibc bug about missing
kernel support for this task (cf. [3]).
In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have procfs
mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled in. In such
situations the only way to make sure that all file descriptors are closed
is to call close() on each file descriptor up to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE,
OPEN_MAX trickery (cf. comment [8] on Rust).

The performance is striking. For good measure, comparing the following
simple close_all_fds() userspace implementation that is essentially just
glibc's version in [6]:

static int close_all_fds(void)
{
        int dir_fd;
        DIR *dir;
        struct dirent *direntp;

        dir = opendir("/proc/self/fd");
        if (!dir)
                return -1;
        dir_fd = dirfd(dir);
        while ((direntp = readdir(dir))) {
                int fd;
                if (strcmp(direntp->d_name, ".") == 0)
                        continue;
                if (strcmp(direntp->d_name, "..") == 0)
                        continue;
                fd = atoi(direntp->d_name);
                if (fd == dir_fd || fd == 0 || fd == 1 || fd == 2)
                        continue;
                close(fd);
        }
        closedir(dir);
        return 0;
}

to close_range() yields:
1. closing 4 open files:
   - close_all_fds(): ~280 us
   - close_range():    ~24 us

2. closing 1000 open files:
   - close_all_fds(): ~5000 us
   - close_range():   ~800 us

close_range() is designed to allow for some flexibility. Specifically, it
does not simply always close all open file descriptors of a task. Instead,
callers can specify an upper bound.
This is e.g. useful for scenarios where specific file descriptors are
created with well-known numbers that are supposed to be excluded from
getting closed.
For extra paranoia close_range() comes with a flags argument. This can e.g.
be used to implement extension. Once can imagine userspace wanting to stop
at the first error instead of ignoring errors under certain circumstances.
There might be other valid ideas in the future. In any case, a flag
argument doesn't hurt and keeps us on the safe side.

From an implementation side this is kept rather dumb. It saw some input
from David and Jann but all nonsense is obviously my own!
- Errors to close file descriptors are currently ignored. (Could be changed
  by setting a flag in the future if needed.)
- __close_range() is a rather simplistic wrapper around __close_fd().
  My reasoning behind this is based on the nature of how __close_fd() needs
  to release an fd. But maybe I misunderstood specifics:
  We take the files_lock and rcu-dereference the fdtable of the calling
  task, we find the entry in the fdtable, get the file and need to release
  files_lock before calling filp_close().
  In the meantime the fdtable might have been altered so we can't just
  retake the spinlock and keep the old rcu-reference of the fdtable
  around. Instead we need to grab a fresh reference to the fdtable.
  If my reasoning is correct then there's really no point in fancyfying
  __close_range(): We just need to rcu-dereference the fdtable of the
  calling task once to cap the max_fd value correctly and then go on
  calling __close_fd() in a loop.

     Rust's solution is slightly different but is equally unperformant.
     Rust calls getdtablesize() which is a glibc library function that
     simply returns the current RLIMIT_NOFILE or OPEN_MAX values. Rust then
     goes on to call close() on each fd. That's obviously overkill for most
     tasks. Rarely, tasks - especially non-demons - hit RLIMIT_NOFILE or
     OPEN_MAX.
     Let's be nice and assume an unprivileged user with RLIMIT_NOFILE set
     to 1024. Even in this case, there's a very high chance that in the
     common case Rust is calling the close() syscall 1021 times pointlessly
     if the task just has 0, 1, and 2 open.

Since the vfs structures are all using timespec64, we can now

In case of ceph_aux_inode however, we need to avoid doing a memcmp()
on uninitialized padding data, so the members of the i_mtime field get
copied individually into 64-bit integers.

f002ee38c9 BACKPORT: vfs: change inode times to use struct timespec64
struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Transition vfs to use
y2038 safe struct timespec64 instead.

The change was made with the help of the following cocinelle
script. This catches about 80% of the changes.
All the header file and logic changes are included in the
first 5 rules. The rest are trivial substitutions.
I avoid changing any of the function signatures or any other
filesystem specific data structures to keep the patch simple
for review.

The script can be a little shorter by combining different cases.
But, this version was sufficient for my usecase.

9cc2f31350 UPSTREAM: pstore: Use ktime_get_real_fast_ns() instead of __getnstimeofday()
__getnstimeofday() is a rather odd interface, with a number of quirks:

- The caller may come from NMI context, but the implementation is not NMI safe,
  one way to get there from NMI is

      NMI handler:
        something bad
          panic()
            kmsg_dump()
              pstore_dump()
                 pstore_record_init()
                   __getnstimeofday()

- The calling conventions are different from any other timekeeping functions,
  to deal with returning an error code during suspended timekeeping.

Address the above issues by using a completely different method to get the
time: ktime_get_real_fast_ns() is NMI safe and has a reasonable behavior
when timekeeping is suspended: it returns the time at which it got
suspended. As Thomas Gleixner explained, this is safe, as
ktime_get_real_fast_ns() does not call into the clocksource driver that
might be suspended.

The result can easily be transformed into a timespec structure. Since
ktime_get_real_fast_ns() was not exported to modules, add the export.

The pstore behavior for the suspended case changes slightly, as it now
stores the timestamp at which timekeeping was suspended instead of storing
a zero timestamp.

This change is not addressing y2038-safety, that's subject to a more
complex follow up patch.

953ada34db BACKPORT: new inode method: ->free_inode()
A lot of ->destroy_inode() instances end with call_rcu() of a callback
that does RCU-delayed part of freeing.  Introduce a new method for
doing just that, with saner signature.

Rules:
->destroy_inode		->free_inode
	f			g		immediate call of f(),
						RCU-delayed call of g()
	f			NULL		immediate call of f(),
						no RCU-delayed calls
	NULL			g		RCU-delayed call of g()
	NULL			NULL		RCU-delayed default freeing

IOW, NULL ->free_inode gives the same behaviour as now.

Note that NULL, NULL is equivalent to NULL, free_inode_nonrcu; we could
mandate the latter form, but that would have very little benefit beyond
making rules a bit more symmetric.  It would break backwards compatibility,
require extra boilerplate and expected semantics for (NULL, NULL) pair
would have no use whatsoever...

ea488f7bbc BACKPORT: bpf: Introduce bpf_sysctl_{get,set}_new_value helpers
Add helpers to work with new value being written to sysctl by user
space.

bpf_sysctl_get_new_value() copies value being written to sysctl into
provided buffer.

bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() overrides new value being written by user
space with a one from provided buffer. Buffer should contain string
representation of the value, similar to what can be seen in /proc/sys/.

Both helpers can be used only on sysctl write.

File position matters and can be managed by an interface that will be
introduced separately. E.g. if user space calls sys_write to a file in
/proc/sys/ at file position = X, where X > 0, then the value set by
bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() will be written starting from X. If program
wants to override whole value with specified buffer, file position has
to be set to zero.

Documentation for the new helpers is provided in bpf.h UAPI.

f9e4407379 BACKPORT: bpf: Sysctl hook
Containerized applications may run as root and it may create problems
for whole host. Specifically such applications may change a sysctl and
affect applications in other containers.

Furthermore in existing infrastructure it may not be possible to just
completely disable writing to sysctl, instead such a process should be
gradual with ability to log what sysctl are being changed by a
container, investigate, limit the set of writable sysctl to currently
used ones (so that new ones can not be changed) and eventually reduce
this set to zero.

The patch introduces new program type BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL and
attach type BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL to solve these problems on cgroup basis.

New program type has access to following minimal context:
	struct bpf_sysctl {
		__u32	write;
	};

Where @write indicates whether sysctl is being read (= 0) or written (=
1).

Helpers to access sysctl name and value will be introduced separately.

BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL attach point is added to sysctl code right before
passing control to ctl_table->proc_handler so that BPF program can
either allow or deny access to sysctl.

6277f9a12e BACKPORT: atomics/treewide: Rename __atomic_add_unless() => atomic_fetch_add_unless()
While __atomic_add_unless() was originally intended as a building-block
for atomic_add_unless(), it's now used in a number of places around the
kernel. It's the only common atomic operation named __atomic*(), rather
than atomic_*(), and for consistency it would be better named
atomic_fetch_add_unless().

This lack of consistency is slightly confusing, and gets in the way of
scripting atomics. Given that, let's clean things up and promote it to
an official part of the atomics API, in the form of
atomic_fetch_add_unless().

This patch converts definitions and invocations over to the new name,
including the instrumented version, using the following script:

  ----
  git grep -w __atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
  sed -i '{s/\<__atomic_add_unless\>/atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
  done
  git grep -w __arch_atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
  sed -i '{s/\<__arch_atomic_add_unless\>/arch_atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
  done
  ----

Note that we do not have atomic{64,_long}_fetch_add_unless(), which will
be introduced by later patches.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

3554ddc048 UPSTREAM: umh: introduce fork_usermode_blob() helper
Introduce helper:
int fork_usermode_blob(void *data, size_t len, struct umh_info *info);
struct umh_info {
       struct file *pipe_to_umh;
       struct file *pipe_from_umh;
       pid_t pid;
};

that GPLed kernel modules (signed or unsigned) can use it to execute part
of its own data as swappable user mode process.

The kernel will do:
- allocate a unique file in tmpfs
- populate that file with [data, data + len] bytes
- user-mode-helper code will do_execve that file and, before the process
  starts, the kernel will create two unix pipes for bidirectional
  communication between kernel module and umh
- close tmpfs file, effectively deleting it
- the fork_usermode_blob will return zero on success and populate
  'struct umh_info' with two unix pipes and the pid of the user process

As the first step in the development of the bpfilter project
the fork_usermode_blob() helper is introduced to allow user mode code
to be invoked from a kernel module. The idea is that user mode code plus
normal kernel module code are built as part of the kernel build
and installed as traditional kernel module into distro specified location,
such that from a distribution point of view, there is
no difference between regular kernel modules and kernel modules + umh code.
Such modules can be signed, modprobed, rmmod, etc. The use of this new helper
by a kernel module doesn't make it any special from kernel and user space
tooling point of view.

Such approach enables kernel to delegate functionality traditionally done
by the kernel modules into the user space processes (either root or !root) and
reduces security attack surface of the new code. The buggy umh code would crash
the user process, but not the kernel. Another advantage is that umh code
of the kernel module can be debugged and tested out of user space
(e.g. opening the possibility to run clang sanitizers, fuzzers or
user space test suites on the umh code).
In case of the bpfilter project such architecture allows complex control plane
to be done in the user space while bpf based data plane stays in the kernel.

Since umh can crash, can be oom-ed by the kernel, killed by the admin,
the kernel module that uses them (like bpfilter) needs to manage life
time of umh on its own via two unix pipes and the pid of umh.

The exit code of such kernel module should kill the umh it started,
so that rmmod of the kernel module will cleanup the corresponding umh.
Just like if the kernel module does kmalloc() it should kfree() it
in the exit code.

2d1a0550e5 UPSTREAM: mm/userfaultfd: honor FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE in fault path
Userfaultfd fault path was by default killable even if the caller does not
have FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE.  That makes sense before in that when with gup
we don't have FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE properly set before.  Now after previous
patch we've got FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE applied even for gup code so it should
also make sense to let userfaultfd to honor the FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE.

Because we're unconditionally setting FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE in gup code
right now, this patch should have no functional change.  It also cleaned
the code a little bit by introducing some helpers.

c95eae795f UPSTREAM: mm: introduce FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE
handle_userfaultfd() is currently the only one place in the kernel page
fault procedures that can respond to non-fatal userspace signals.  It was
trying to detect such an allowance by checking against USER & KILLABLE
flags, which was "un-official".

In this patch, we introduced a new flag (FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE) to show
that the fault handler allows the fault procedure to respond even to
non-fatal signals.  Meanwhile, add this new flag to the default fault
flags so that all the page fault handlers can benefit from the new flag.
With that, replacing the userfault check to this one.

Since the line is getting even longer, clean up the fault flags a bit too
to ease TTY users.

Although we've got a new flag and applied it, we shouldn't have any
functional change with this patch so far.

0d08cac3a9 BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/shmem: support minor fault registration for shmem
This patch allows shmem-backed VMAs to be registered for minor faults.
Minor faults are appropriately relayed to userspace in the fault path, for
VMAs with the relevant flag.

This commit doesn't hook up the UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl for shmem-backed
minor faults, though, so userspace doesn't yet have a way to resolve such
faults.

Because of this, we also don't yet advertise this as a supported feature.
That will be done in a separate commit when the feature is fully
implemented.

55c3d51b6a BACKPORT: ANDROID: userfaultfd: add MMAP_TRYLOCK mode for COPY/ZEROPAGE
In case mmap_lock is contended, it is possible that userspace can spend
time performing other tasks rather than waiting in uninterruptible-sleep
state for the lock to become available. Even if no other task is
available, it is better to yield or sleep rather than adding contention
to already contended lock.

We introduce MMAP_TRYLOCK mode so that when possible, userspace can
request to use mmap_read_trylock(), returning -EAGAIN if and when it
fails.
