[PATCH V4 0/9] Fixes for metadata accelreation

Hi all:

This series try to fix several issues introduced by meta data
accelreation series. Please review.

Changes from V3:
- remove the unnecessary patch

Changes from V2:
- use seqlck helper to synchronize MMU notifier with vhost worker

Changes from V1:
- try not use RCU to syncrhonize MMU notifier with vhost worker
- set dirty pages after no readers
- return -EAGAIN only when we find the range is overlapped with
  metadata

Jason Wang (9):
  vhost: don't set uaddr for invalid address
  vhost: validate MMU notifier registration
  vhost: fix vhost map leak
  vhost: reset invalidate_count in vhost_set_vring_num_addr()
  vhost: mark dirty pages during map uninit
  vhost: don't do synchronize_rcu() in vhost_uninit_vq_maps()
  vhost: do not use RCU to synchronize MMU notifier with worker
  vhost: correctly set dirty pages in MMU notifiers callback
  vhost: do not return -EAGAIN for non blocking invalidation too early

[PATCH V4 1/9] vhost: don't set uaddr for invalid address

We should not setup uaddr for the invalid address, otherwise we may
try to pin or prefetch mapping of wrong pages.

[PATCH V4 2/9] vhost: validate MMU notifier registration

The return value of mmu_notifier_register() is not checked in
vhost_vring_set_num_addr(). This will cause an out of sync between mm
and MMU notifier thus a double free. To solve this, introduce a
boolean flag to track whether MMU notifier is registered and only do
unregistering when it was true.

[PATCH V4 4/9] vhost: reset invalidate_count in vhost_set_vring_num_addr()

The vhost_set_vring_num_addr() could be called in the middle of
invalidate_range_start() and invalidate_range_end(). If we don't reset
invalidate_count after the un-registering of MMU notifier, the
invalidate_cont will run out of sync (e.g never reach zero). This will
in fact disable the fast accessor path. Fixing by reset the count to
zero.

[PATCH V4 6/9] vhost: don't do synchronize_rcu() in vhost_uninit_vq_maps()

There's no need for RCU synchronization in vhost_uninit_vq_maps()
since we've already serialized with readers (memory accessors). This
also avoid the possible userspace DOS through ioctl() because of the
possible high latency caused by synchronize_rcu().

[PATCH V4 7/9] vhost: do not use RCU to synchronize MMU notifier with worker

We used to use RCU to synchronize MMU notifier with worker. This leads
calling synchronize_rcu() in invalidate_range_start(). But on a busy
system, there would be many factors that may slow down the
synchronize_rcu() which makes it unsuitable to be called in MMU
notifier.

So this patch switches use seqlock counter to track whether or not the
map was used. The counter was increased when vq try to start or finish
uses the map. This means, when it was even, we're sure there's no
readers and MMU notifier is synchronized. When it was odd, it means
there's a reader we need to wait it to be even again then we are
synchronized. Consider the read critical section is pretty small the
synchronization should be done very fast.

[PATCH V4 9/9] vhost: do not return -EAGAIN for non blocking invalidation too early

The write side of a seqlock only provides write barriers. Access to

	map = vq->maps[VHOST_ADDR_USED];

Still needs a read side barrier, and then I think this will be no
better than a normal spinlock.

It also doesn't seem like this algorithm even needs a seqlock, as this
is just a one bit flag

atomic_set_bit(using map)
smp_mb__after_atomic()
.. maps [...]
atomic_clear_bit(using map)


map = NULL;
smp_mb__before_atomic();
while (atomic_read_bit(using map))
   relax()

Again, not clear this could be faster than a spinlock when the
barriers are correct...

My impression is that patch #7 will be changed to use spinlocks so there
will be a v5.
