Provide a function to begin a read operation: int fscache_begin_read_operation( struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, struct fscache_cookie *cookie) This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly. It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the supplied cookie. This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the operation. Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for the cookie to move to the correct state. This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that I/O can resume. Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object to get to a state where it can be used for certain things: bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, enum fscache_want_stage stage); This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O (FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

Add a function to invalidate the cache behind a cookie: void fscache_invalidate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, loff_t size, unsigned int flags) This causes any cached data for the specified cookie to be discarded. If the cookie is marked as being in use, a new cache object will be created if possible and future I/O will use that instead. In-flight I/O should be abandoned (writes) or reconsidered (reads). Each time it is called cookie->inval_counter is incremented and this can be used to detect invalidation at the end of an I/O operation. The coherency data attached to the cookie can be updated and the cookie size should be reset. One flag is available, FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE, which should be used to indicate invalidation due to a DIO write on a file. This will temporarily disable caching for this cookie. Changes ======= ver #2: - Should only change to inval state if can get access to cache.

Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.

Implement a very simple cookie state machine to handle lookup, invalidation, withdrawal, relinquishment and, to be added later, commit on LRU discard. Three cache methods are provided: ->lookup_cookie() to look up and, if necessary, create a data storage object; ->withdraw_cookie() to free the resources associated with that object and potentially delete it; and ->prepare_to_write(), to do prepare for changes to the cached data to be modified locally. Changes ======= ver #3: - Fix a race between LRU discard and relinquishment whereby the former would override the latter and thus the latter would never happen[1]. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0.

Implement functions to allow the cache backend to add or remove a cache: (1) Declare a cache to be live: int fscache_add_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache, const struct fscache_cache_ops *ops, void *cache_priv); Take a previously acquired cache cookie, set the operations table and private data and mark the cache open for access. (2) Withdraw a cache from service: void fscache_withdraw_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache); This marks the cache as withdrawn and thus prevents further cache-level and volume-level accesses.

Add a number of helper functions to manage access to a cookie, pinning the cache object in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from removing it: (1) void fscache_init_access_gate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie); This function initialises the access count when a cache binds to a cookie. An extra ref is taken on the access count to prevent wakeups while the cache is active. We're only interested in the wakeup when a cookie is being withdrawn and we're waiting for it to quiesce - at which point the counter will be decremented before the wait. The FSCACHE_COOKIE_NACC_ELEVATED flag is set on the cookie to keep track of the extra ref in order to handle a race between relinquishment and withdrawal both trying to drop the extra ref. (2) bool fscache_begin_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, enum fscache_access_trace why); This function attempts to begin access upon a cookie, pinning it in place if it's cached. If successful, it returns true and leaves a the access count incremented. (3) void fscache_end_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, enum fscache_access_trace why); This function drops the access count obtained by (2), permitting object withdrawal to take place when it reaches zero. A tracepoint is provided to track changes to the access counter on a cookie.

Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and then create per-inode cookies within it. To request a volume, the filesystem calls: struct fscache_volume * fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key, const char *cache_name, const void *coherency_data, size_t coherency_len) The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache. It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001". The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the name of the cache to use if there's more than one available. The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything within it is discarded. Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing. When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the volume cookie by calling: void fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume, const void *coherency_data, bool invalidate) If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated. Changes ======= ver #4: - Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3]. ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2]. - Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't store it for the moment. ver #2: - Fix error check[1]. - Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a conflicting volume cookie already exists. No error is printed now - that's left to the netfs.

Implement a register of caches and provide functions to manage it. Two functions are provided for the cache backend to use: (1) Acquire a cache cookie: struct fscache_cache *fscache_acquire_cache(const char *name) This gets the cache cookie for a cache of the specified name and moves it to the preparation state. If a nameless cache cookie exists, that will be given this name and used. (2) Relinquish a cache cookie: void fscache_relinquish_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache); This relinquishes a cache cookie, cleans it and makes it available if it's still referenced by a network filesystem. Note that network filesystems don't deal with cache cookies directly, but rather go straight to the volume registration.

Implement a function to generate hashes. It needs to be stable over time and endianness-independent as the hashes will appear on disk in future patches. It can assume that its input is a multiple of four bytes in size and alignment. This is borrowed from the VFS and simplified. le32_to_cpu() is added to make it endianness-independent. Changes ======= ver #3: - Read the data being hashed in an endianness-independent way[1]. - Change the size parameter to be in bytes rather than words.

Taking sb_writers whilst holding mmap_lock isn't allowed and will result in a lockdep warning like that below. The problem comes from cachefiles needing to take the sb_writers lock in order to do a write to the cache, but being asked to do this by netfslib called from readpage, readahead or write_begin[1]. Fix this by always offloading the write to the cache off to a worker thread. The main thread doesn't need to wait for it, so deadlock can be avoided. This can be tested by running the quick xfstests on something like afs or ceph with lockdep enabled.

Currently, an SEV-ES guest is terminated if the validation of the VMGEXIT exit code or exit parameters fails. The VMGEXIT instruction can be issued from userspace, even though userspace (likely) can't update the GHCB. To prevent userspace from being able to kill the guest, return an error through the GHCB when validation fails rather than terminating the guest. For cases where the GHCB can't be updated (e.g. the GHCB can't be mapped, etc.), just return back to the guest. The new error codes are documented in the lasest update to the GHCB specification.

Use kvzalloc() to allocate KVM's buffer for SEV-ES's GHCB scratch area so that KVM falls back to __vmalloc() if physically contiguous memory isn't available. The buffer is purely a KVM software construct, i.e. there's no need for it to be physically contiguous.

Return appropriate error codes if setting up the GHCB scratch area for an SEV-ES guest fails. In particular, returning -EINVAL instead of -ENOMEM when allocating the kernel buffer could be confusing as userspace would likely suspect a guest issue.

In commit c8c37359 ("parisc: Enhance detection of synchronous cr16 clocksources") I assumed that CPUs on the same physical core are syncronous. While booting up the kernel on two different C8000 machines, one with a dual-core PA8800 and one with a dual-core PA8900 CPU, this turned out to be wrong. The symptom was that I saw a jump in the internal clocks printed to the syslog and strange overall behaviour. On machines which have 4 cores (2 dual-cores) the problem isn't visible, because the current logic already marked the cr16 clocksource unstable in this case. This patch now marks the cr16 interval timers unstable if we have more than one CPU in the system, and it fixes this issue.
