[ Upstream commit 57ddfecc72 ]
list_for_each_entry_reverse() assumes that the iterated list is nonempty
and that every list_head is embedded in the same type, but its use in
padata_do_serial() breaks both rules.
This doesn't cause any issues now because padata_priv and padata_list
happen to have their list fields at the same offset, but we really
shouldn't be relying on that.

[ Upstream commit 34c3a47d20 ]
A deadlock can happen when an overloaded system runs ->parallel() in the
context of the current task:
padata_do_parallel
->parallel()
pcrypt_aead_enc/dec
padata_do_serial
spin_lock(&reorder->lock) // BHs still enabled
<interrupt>
...
__do_softirq
...
padata_do_serial
spin_lock(&reorder->lock)
It's a bug for BHs to be on in _do_serial as Steffen points out, so
ensure they're off in the "current task" case like they are in
padata_parallel_worker to avoid this situation.

padata_stop() has two callers and is unnecessary in both cases. When
pcrypt calls it before padata_free(), it's being unloaded so there are
no outstanding padata jobs[0]. When __padata_free() calls it, it's
either along the same path or else pcrypt initialization failed, which
of course means there are also no outstanding jobs.
Removing it simplifies padata and saves text.

A 5.7 kernel hangs during a tcrypt test of padata that waits for an AEAD
request to finish. This is only seen on large machines running many
concurrent requests.
The issue is that padata never serializes the request. The removal of
the reorder_objects atomic missed that the memory barrier in
padata_do_serial() depends on it.
Upgrade the barrier from smp_mb__after_atomic to smp_mb to get correct
ordering again.

Sometimes the kernel doesn't take full advantage of system memory
bandwidth, leading to a single CPU spending excessive time in
initialization paths where the data scales with memory size.
Multithreading naturally addresses this problem.
Extend padata, a framework that handles many parallel yet singlethreaded
jobs, to also handle multithreaded jobs by adding support for splitting up
the work evenly, specifying a minimum amount of work that's appropriate
for one helper thread to do, load balancing between helpers, and
coordinating them.
This is inspired by work from Pavel Tatashin and Steve Sistare.

padata allocates per-CPU, per-instance work structs for parallel jobs. A
do_parallel call assigns a job to a sequence number and hashes the number
to a CPU, where the job will eventually run using the corresponding work.
This approach fit with how padata used to bind a job to each CPU
round-robin, makes less sense after commit bfde23ce20 ("padata: unbind
parallel jobs from specific CPUs") because a work isn't bound to a
particular CPU anymore, and isn't needed at all for multithreaded jobs
because they don't have sequence numbers.
Replace the per-CPU works with a preallocated pool, which allows sharing
them between existing padata users and the upcoming multithreaded user.
The pool will also facilitate setting NUMA-aware concurrency limits with
later users.
The pool is sized according to the number of possible CPUs. With this
limit, MAX_OBJ_NUM no longer makes sense, so remove it.
If the global pool is exhausted, a parallel job is run in the current task
instead to throttle a system trying to do too much in parallel.

Patch series "padata: parallelize deferred page init", v3.
Deferred struct page init is a bottleneck in kernel boot--the biggest for
us and probably others. Optimizing it maximizes availability for
large-memory systems and allows spinning up short-lived VMs as needed
without having to leave them running. It also benefits bare metal
machines hosting VMs that are sensitive to downtime. In projects such as
VMM Fast Restart[1], where guest state is preserved across kexec reboot,
it helps prevent application and network timeouts in the guests.
So, multithread deferred init to take full advantage of system memory
bandwidth.
Extend padata, a framework that handles many parallel singlethreaded jobs,
to handle multithreaded jobs as well by adding support for splitting up
the work evenly, specifying a minimum amount of work that's appropriate
for one helper thread to do, load balancing between helpers, and
coordinating them. More documentation in patches 4 and 8.
This series is the first step in a project to address other memory
proportional bottlenecks in the kernel such as pmem struct page init, vfio
page pinning, hugetlb fallocate, and munmap. Deferred page init doesn't
require concurrency limits, resource control, or priority adjustments like
these other users will because it happens during boot when the system is
otherwise idle and waiting for page init to finish.
This has been run on a variety of x86 systems and speeds up kernel boot by
4% to 49%, saving up to 1.6 out of 4 seconds. Patch 6 has more numbers.
This patch (of 8):
padata_driver_exit() is unnecessary because padata isn't built as a module
and doesn't exit.
padata's init routine will soon allocate memory, so getting rid of the
exit function now avoids pointless code to free it.

cpuhp multi-instance callbacks only walk forward in cpuhp_step->list and
the same node is linked in both the online and dead lists, so the list
corruption that results from padata_alloc() adding the node to a second

as no instances are freed.
Avoid the issue by giving each state its own node.

If the pcrypt template is used multiple times in an algorithm, then a
deadlock occurs because all pcrypt instances share the same
padata_instance, which completes requests in the order submitted. That
is, the inner pcrypt request waits for the outer pcrypt request while
the outer request is already waiting for the inner.
This patch fixes this by allocating a set of queues for each pcrypt
instance instead of using two global queues. In order to maintain
the existing user-space interface, the pinst structure remains global
so any sysfs modifications will apply to every pcrypt instance.
Note that when an update occurs we have to allocate memory for
every pcrypt instance. Should one of the allocations fail we
will abort the update without rolling back changes already made.
The new per-instance data structure is called padata_shell and is
essentially a wrapper around parallel_data.
Reproducer:
#include <linux/if_alg.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main()
{
struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
.salg_type = "aead",
.salg_name = "pcrypt(pcrypt(rfc4106-gcm-aesni))"
};
int algfd, reqfd;
char buf[32] = { 0 };
algfd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
bind(algfd, (void *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
setsockopt(algfd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buf, 20);
reqfd = accept(algfd, 0, 0);
write(reqfd, buf, 32);
read(reqfd, buf, 16);
}

The function padata_flush_queues is fundamentally broken because
it cannot force padata users to complete the request that is
underway. IOW padata has to passively wait for the completion
of any outstanding work.
As it stands flushing is used in two places. Its use in padata_stop
is simply unnecessary because nothing depends on the queues to
be flushed afterwards.
The other use in padata_replace is more substantial as we depend
on it to free the old pd structure. This patch instead uses the
pd->refcnt to dynamically free the pd structure once all requests
are complete.

Padata binds the parallel part of a job to a single CPU and round-robins
over all CPUs in the system for each successive job. Though the serial
parts rely on per-CPU queues for correct ordering, they're not necessary
for parallel work, and it improves performance to run the job locally on
NUMA machines and let the scheduler pick the CPU within a node on a busy
system.
So, make the parallel workqueue unbound.
Update the parallel workqueue's cpumask when the instance's parallel
cpumask changes.
Now that parallel jobs no longer run on max_active=1 workqueues, two or
more parallel works that hash to the same CPU may run simultaneously,
finish out of order, and so be serialized out of order. Prevent this by
keeping the works sorted on the reorder list by sequence number and
checking that in the reordering logic.
padata_get_next becomes padata_find_next so it can be reused for the end
of padata_reorder, where it's used to avoid uselessly queueing work when
the next job by sequence number isn't finished yet but a later job that
hashed to the same CPU has.
The ENODATA case in padata_find_next no longer makes sense because
parallel jobs aren't bound to specific CPUs. The EINPROGRESS case takes
care of the scenario where a parallel job is potentially running on the
same CPU as padata_find_next, and with only one error code left, just
use NULL instead.

padata_do_parallel currently returns -EINVAL if the callback CPU isn't
in the callback cpumask.
pcrypt tries to prevent this situation by keeping its own callback
cpumask in sync with padata's and checks that the callback CPU it passes
to padata is valid. Make padata handle this instead.
padata_do_parallel now takes a pointer to the callback CPU and updates
it for the caller if an alternate CPU is used. Overall behavior in
terms of which callback CPUs are chosen stays the same.
Prepares for removal of the padata cpumask notifier in pcrypt, which
will fix a lockdep complaint about nested acquisition of the CPU hotplug
lock later in the series.

The function padata_reorder will use a timer when it cannot progress
while completed jobs are outstanding (pd->reorder_objects > 0). This
is suboptimal as if we do end up using the timer then it would have
introduced a gratuitous delay of one second.
In fact we can easily distinguish between whether completed jobs
are outstanding and whether we can make progress. All we have to
do is look at the next pqueue list.
This patch does that by replacing pd->processed with pd->cpu so
that the next pqueue is more accessible.
A work queue is used instead of the original try_again to avoid
hogging the CPU.
Note that we don't bother removing the work queue in
padata_flush_queues because the whole premise is broken. You
cannot flush async crypto requests so it makes no sense to even
try. A subsequent patch will fix it by replacing it with a ref
counting scheme.

The second modprobe command never finishes because in padata_reorder,
CPU0's load of reorder_objects is executed before the unlocking store in
spin_unlock_bh(pd->lock), causing CPU0 to miss CPU1's increment:
CPU0 CPU1
padata_reorder padata_do_serial
LOAD reorder_objects // 0
INC reorder_objects // 1
padata_reorder
TRYLOCK pd->lock // failed
UNLOCK pd->lock
CPU0 deletes the timer before returning from padata_reorder and since no
other job is submitted to padata, modprobe waits indefinitely.
Add a pair of full barriers to guarantee proper ordering:
CPU0 CPU1
padata_reorder padata_do_serial
UNLOCK pd->lock
smp_mb()
LOAD reorder_objects
INC reorder_objects
smp_mb__after_atomic()
padata_reorder
TRYLOCK pd->lock
smp_mb__after_atomic is needed so the read part of the trylock operation
comes after the INC, as Andrea points out. Thanks also to Andrea for
help with writing a litmus test.

If the algorithm we're parallelizing is asynchronous we might change
CPUs between padata_do_parallel() and padata_do_serial(). However, we
don't expect this to happen as we need to enqueue the padata object into
the per-cpu reorder queue we took it from, i.e. the same-cpu's parallel
queue.
Ensure we're not switching CPUs for a given padata object by tracking
the CPU within the padata object. If the serial callback gets called on

The parallel queue per-cpu data structure gets initialized only for CPUs

may run on a different CPU and might wrongly decide it's the target CPU
for the next reorder item as per-cpu memory gets memset(0) and we might
be waiting for the first CPU in cpumask.pcpu, i.e. cpu_index 0.
Make the '__this_cpu_read(pd->pqueue->cpu_index) == next_queue->cpu_index'

cpu_index member of all per-cpu parallel queues. Use -1 for unused ones.

padata_reorder calls list_add_tail with the list to which its adding
locked, which seems correct:
spin_lock(&squeue->serial.lock);
list_add_tail(&padata->list, &squeue->serial.list);
spin_unlock(&squeue->serial.lock);
This therefore leaves only place where such inconsistency could occur:
if padata->list is added at the same time on two different threads.
This pdata pointer comes from the function call to
padata_get_next(pd), which has in it the following block:
next_queue = per_cpu_ptr(pd->pqueue, cpu);
padata = NULL;
reorder = &next_queue->reorder;
if (!list_empty(&reorder->list)) {
padata = list_entry(reorder->list.next,
struct padata_priv, list);
spin_lock(&reorder->lock);
list_del_init(&padata->list);
atomic_dec(&pd->reorder_objects);
spin_unlock(&reorder->lock);
pd->processed++;
goto out;
}
out:
return padata;
I strongly suspect that the problem here is that two threads can race
on reorder list. Even though the deletion is locked, call to
list_entry is not locked, which means it's feasible that two threads
pick up the same padata object and subsequently call list_add_tail on
them at the same time. The fix is thus be hoist that lock outside of
that block.
