syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for
commit 87579e9b7d ("loop: use worker per cgroup instead of kworker")
is calling destroy_workqueue() with disk->open_mutex held.
This circular dependency cannot be broken unless we call __loop_clr_fd()
without holding disk->open_mutex. Therefore, defer __loop_clr_fd() from
lo_release() to a WQ context.

commit 87579e9b7d ("loop: use worker per cgroup instead of kworker")
is calling destroy_workqueue() with lo->lo_mutex held.
Since all functions where lo->lo_state matters are already checking
lo->lo_state with lo->lo_mutex held (in order to avoid racing with e.g.
ioctl(LOOP_CTL_REMOVE)), and __loop_clr_fd() can be called from either
ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) xor close(), lo->lo_state == Lo_rundown is considered
as an exclusive lock for __loop_clr_fd(). Therefore, hold lo->lo_mutex
inside __loop_clr_fd() only when asserting/updating lo->lo_state.
Since ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) depends on lo->lo_state == Lo_bound, a valid
lo->lo_backing_file must have been assigned by ioctl(LOOP_SET_FD) or
ioctl(LOOP_CONFIGURE). Thus, we can remove lo->lo_backing_file test,
and convert __loop_clr_fd() into a void function.

Support for cyrptoloop has been officially marked broken and deprecated
in favor of dm-crypt (which supports the same broken algorithms if
needed) in Linux 2.6.4 (released in March 2004), and support for it has
been entirely removed from losetup in util-linux 2.23 (released in April
2013). The XOR transfer has never been more than a toy to demonstrate
the transfer in the bad old times of crypto export restrictions.
Remove them as they have some nasty interactions with loop device life
times due to the iteration over all loop devices in
loop_unregister_transfer.

syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for
commit a160c6159d ("block: add an optional probe callback to
major_names") is calling the module's probe function with major_names_lock
held.
Fortunately, since commit 990e78116d ("block: loop: fix deadlock
between open and remove") stopped holding loop_ctl_mutex in lo_open(),
current role of loop_ctl_mutex is to serialize access to loop_index_idr
and loop_add()/loop_remove(); in other words, management of id for IDR.
To avoid holding loop_ctl_mutex during whole add/remove operation, use
a bool flag to indicate whether the loop device is ready for use.
loop_unregister_transfer() which is called from cleanup_cryptoloop()
currently has possibility of use-after-free problem due to lack of
serialization between kfree() from loop_remove() from loop_control_remove()
and mutex_lock() from unregister_transfer_cb(). But since lo->lo_encryption
should be already NULL when this function is called due to module unload,
and commit 222013f9ac ("cryptoloop: add a deprecation warning")
indicates that we will remove this function shortly, this patch updates
this function to emit warning instead of checking lo->lo_encryption.
Holding loop_ctl_mutex in loop_exit() is pointless, for all users must
close /dev/loop-control and /dev/loop$num (in order to drop module's
refcount to 0) before loop_exit() starts, and nobody can open
/dev/loop-control or /dev/loop$num afterwards.

We noticed that the user interface of Android devices becomes very slow
under memory pressure. This is because Android uses the zram driver on top
of the loop driver for swapping, because under memory pressure the swap
code alternates reads and writes quickly, because mq-deadline is the
default scheduler for loop devices and because mq-deadline delays writes by
five seconds for such a workload with default settings. Fix this by making
the kernel select I/O scheduler 'none' from inside add_disk() for loop
devices. This default can be overridden at any time from user space,
e.g. via a udev rule. This approach has an advantage compared to changing
the I/O scheduler from userspace from 'mq-deadline' into 'none', namely
that synchronize_rcu() does not get called.
This patch changes the default I/O scheduler for loop devices from
'mq-deadline' into 'none'.
Additionally, this patch reduces the Android boot time on my test setup
with 0.5 seconds compared to configuring the loop I/O scheduler from user
space.

Commit 6cc8e74308 ("loop: scale loop device by introducing per
device lock") re-opened a race window for NULL pointer dereference at
loop_validate_file() where commit 310ca162d7 ("block/loop: Use
global lock for ioctl() operation.") has closed.
Although we need to guarantee that other loop devices will not change
during traversal, we can't take remote "struct loop_device"->lo_mutex
inside loop_validate_file() in order to avoid AB-BA deadlock. Therefore,
introduce a global lock dedicated for loop_validate_file() which is
conditionally taken before local "struct loop_device"->lo_mutex is taken.

The current code only associates with the existing blkcg when aio is used
to access the backing file. This patch covers all types of i/o to the
backing file and also associates the memcg so if the backing file is on
tmpfs, memory is charged appropriately.
This patch also exports cgroup_get_e_css and int_active_memcg so it can be
used by the loop module.

Patch series "Charge loop device i/o to issuing cgroup", v14.
The loop device runs all i/o to the backing file on a separate kworker
thread which results in all i/o being charged to the root cgroup. This
allows a loop device to be used to trivially bypass resource limits and
other policy. This patch series fixes this gap in accounting.
A simple script to demonstrate this behavior on cgroupv2 machine:
'''
#!/bin/bash
set -e
CGROUP=/sys/fs/cgroup/test.slice
LOOP_DEV=/dev/loop0
if [[ ! -d $CGROUP ]]
then
sudo mkdir $CGROUP
fi
grep oom_kill $CGROUP/memory.events
# Set a memory limit, write more than that limit to tmpfs -> OOM kill
sudo unshare -m bash -c "
echo \$\$ > $CGROUP/cgroup.procs;
echo 0 > $CGROUP/memory.swap.max;
echo 64M > $CGROUP/memory.max;
mount -t tmpfs -o size=512m tmpfs /tmp;
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/file bs=1M count=256" || true
grep oom_kill $CGROUP/memory.events
# Set a memory limit, write more than that limit through loopback
# device -> no OOM kill
sudo unshare -m bash -c "
echo \$\$ > $CGROUP/cgroup.procs;
echo 0 > $CGROUP/memory.swap.max;
echo 64M > $CGROUP/memory.max;
mount -t tmpfs -o size=512m tmpfs /tmp;
truncate -s 512m /tmp/backing_file
losetup $LOOP_DEV /tmp/backing_file
dd if=/dev/zero of=$LOOP_DEV bs=1M count=256;
losetup -D $LOOP_DEV" || true
grep oom_kill $CGROUP/memory.events
'''
Naively charging cgroups could result in priority inversions through the
single kworker thread in the case where multiple cgroups are
reading/writing to the same loop device. This patch series does some
minor modification to the loop driver so that each cgroup can make forward
progress independently to avoid this inversion.
With this patch series applied, the above script triggers OOM kills when
writing through the loop device as expected.
This patch (of 3):
Existing uses of loop device may have multiple cgroups reading/writing to
the same device. Simply charging resources for I/O to the backing file
could result in priority inversion where one cgroup gets synchronously
blocked, holding up all other I/O to the loop device.
In order to avoid this priority inversion, we use a single workqueue where
each work item is a "struct loop_worker" which contains a queue of struct
loop_cmds to issue. The loop device maintains a tree mapping blk css_id
-> loop_worker. This allows each cgroup to independently make forward
progress issuing I/O to the backing file.
There is also a single queue for I/O associated with the rootcg which can
be used in cases of extreme memory shortage where we cannot allocate a
loop_worker.
The locking for the tree and queues is fairly heavy handed - we acquire a
per-loop-device spinlock any time either is accessed. The existing
implementation serializes all I/O through a single thread anyways, so I
don't believe this is any worse.

Commit c76f48eb5c ("block: take bd_mutex around delete_partitions in
del_gendisk") adds disk->part0->bd_mutex in del_gendisk(), this way
causes the following AB/BA deadlock between removing loop and opening
loop:
1) loop_control_ioctl(LOOP_CTL_REMOVE)
-> mutex_lock(&loop_ctl_mutex)
-> del_gendisk
-> mutex_lock(&disk->part0->bd_mutex)
2) blkdev_get_by_dev
-> mutex_lock(&disk->part0->bd_mutex)
-> lo_open
-> mutex_lock(&loop_ctl_mutex)
Add a new Lo_deleting state to remove the need for clearing
->private_data and thus holding loop_ctl_mutex in the ioctl
LOOP_CTL_REMOVE path.

vfs: don't unnecessarily clone write access for writable fds
There's an I/O error on fsync() in a detached loop device
if it has been previously attached.
The issue is write cache is enabled in the attach path in
loop_configure() but it isn't disabled in the detach path;
thus it remains enabled in the block device regardless of
whether it is attached or not.
Now fsync() can get an I/O request that will just be failed
later in loop_queue_rq() as device's state is not 'Lo_bound'.
So, disable write cache in the detach path.
Do so based on the queue flag, not the loop device flag for
read-only (used to enable) as the queue flag can be changed
via sysfs even on read-only loop devices (e.g., losetup -r.)
Test-case:
# DEV=/dev/loop7
# IMG=/tmp/image
# truncate --size 1M $IMG
# losetup $DEV $IMG
# losetup -d $DEV

# strace -e fsync parted -s $DEV print 2>&1 | grep fsync

Currently, loop device has only one global lock: loop_ctl_mutex.
This becomes hot in scenarios where many loop devices are used.
Scale it by introducing per-device lock: lo_mutex that protects
modifications of all fields in struct loop_device.
Keep loop_ctl_mutex to protect global data: loop_index_idr, loop_lookup,
loop_add.
The new lock ordering requirement is that loop_ctl_mutex must be taken
before lo_mutex.
