The lockdep splat below hints at a bug in RCU usage in dm-crypt that
was introduced with commit c538f6ec9f ("dm crypt: add ability to use
keys from the kernel key retention service"). The kernel keyring
function user_key_payload() is in fact a wrapper for
rcu_dereference_protected() which must not be called with only
rcu_read_lock() section mark.
Unfortunately the kernel keyring subsystem doesn't currently provide
an interface that allows the use of an RCU read-side section. So for
now we must drop RCU in favour of rwsem until a proper function is
made available in the kernel keyring subsystem.

This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:
be628be095 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")
... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.
However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.
Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().
Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

x86-64 (known to be fast for get_current()/this_cpu_read_stable() caching)
and ppc64 (with paca) show similar improvements in the unlink microbenches.
The small delta for ppc64 (2ms), does not represent the gains on the unlink
runs. In the case of x86, there was a decent amount of variation in the
latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.

Unfortunately key_string may theoretically contain whitespace even after
it's processed by dm_split_args(). The reason for this is DM core
supports escaping of almost all chars including any whitespace.
If userspace passes a key to the kernel in format ":32:logon:my_prefix:my\ key"
dm-crypt will look up key "my_prefix:my key" in kernel keyring service.
So far everything's fine.
Unfortunately if userspace later calls DM_TABLE_STATUS ioctl, it will not
receive back expected ":32:logon:my_prefix:my\ key" but the unescaped version
instead. Also userpace (most notably cryptsetup) is not ready to parse
single target argument containing (even escaped) whitespace chars and any
whitespace is simply taken as delimiter of another argument.
This effect is mitigated by the fact libdevmapper curently performs
double escaping of '\' char. Any user input in format "x\ x" is
transformed into "x\\ x" before being passed to the kernel. Nonetheless
dm-crypt may be used without libdevmapper. Therefore the near-term
solution to this is to reject any key string containing whitespace.

The kernel key service is a generic way to store keys for the use of
other subsystems. Currently there is no way to use kernel keys in dm-crypt.
This patch aims to fix that. Instead of key userspace may pass a key
description with preceding ':'. So message that constructs encryption
mapping now looks like this:
<cipher> [<key>|:<key_string>] <iv_offset> <dev_path> <start> [<#opt_params> <opt_params>]
where <key_string> is in format: <key_size>:<key_type>:<key_description>
Currently we only support two elementary key types: 'user' and 'logon'.
Keys may be loaded in dm-crypt either via <key_string> or using
classical method and pass the key in hex representation directly.
dm-crypt device initialised with a key passed in hex representation may be
replaced with key passed in key_string format and vice versa.

In the past, dm-crypt used per-cpu crypto context. This has been removed
in the kernel 3.15 and the crypto context is shared between all cpus. This
patch renames the function crypt_setkey_allcpus to crypt_setkey, because
there is really no activity that is done for all cpus.

In crypt_set_key(), if a failure occurs while replacing the old key
(e.g. tfm->setkey() fails) the key must not have DM_CRYPT_KEY_VALID flag
set. Otherwise, the crypto layer would have an invalid key that still
has DM_CRYPT_KEY_VALID flag set.

Use bio_add_page(), the standard interface for adding a page to a bio,
rather than open-coding the same.
It should be noted that the 'clone' bio that is allocated using
bio_alloc_bioset(), in crypt_alloc_buffer(), does _not_ set the
bio's BIO_CLONED flag. As such, bio_add_page()'s early return for true
bio clones (those with BIO_CLONED set) isn't applicable.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.
In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.
Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

As the documentation for kthread_stop() says, "if threadfn() may call
do_exit() itself, the caller must ensure task_struct can't go away".
dm-crypt does not ensure this and therefore crashes when crypt_dtr()
calls kthread_stop(). The crash is trivially reproducible by adding a
delay before the call to kthread_stop() and just opening and closing a
dm-crypt device.

This problem was introduced by bcbd94ff48 ("dm crypt: fix a possible
hang due to race condition on exit").
Looking at the description of that patch (excerpted below), it seems
like the problem it addresses can be solved by just using
set_current_state instead of __set_current_state, since we obviously
need the memory barrier.
| dm crypt: fix a possible hang due to race condition on exit
|
| A kernel thread executes __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE),
| __add_wait_queue, spin_unlock_irq and then tests kthread_should_stop().
| It is possible that the processor reorders memory accesses so that
| kthread_should_stop() is executed before __set_current_state(). If
| such reordering happens, there is a possible race on thread
| termination: [...]
So this patch just reverts the aforementioned patch and changes the
__set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) to set_current_state(...). This
fixes the crash and should also fix the potential hang.

When dm-crypt processes writes, it allocates a new bio in
crypt_alloc_buffer(). The bio is allocated from a bio set and it can
have at most BIO_MAX_PAGES vector entries, however the incoming bio can be
larger (e.g. if it was allocated by bcache). If the incoming bio is
larger, bio_alloc_bioset() fails and an error is returned.
To avoid the error, we test for a too large bio in the function
crypt_map() and use dm_accept_partial_bio() to split the bio.
dm_accept_partial_bio() trims the current bio to the desired size and
asks DM core to send another bio with the rest of the data.

A kernel thread executes __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE),
__add_wait_queue, spin_unlock_irq and then tests kthread_should_stop().
It is possible that the processor reorders memory accesses so that
kthread_should_stop() is executed before __set_current_state(). If such
reordering happens, there is a possible race on thread termination:
CPU 0:
calls kthread_should_stop()
it tests KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP bit, returns false
CPU 1:
calls kthread_stop(cc->write_thread)
sets the KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP bit
calls wake_up_process on the kernel thread, that sets the thread
state to TASK_RUNNING
CPU 0:
sets __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)
spin_unlock_irq(&cc->write_thread_wait.lock)
schedule() - and the process is stuck and never terminates, because the
state is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and wake_up_process on CPU 1 already
terminated
Fix this race condition by using a new flag DM_CRYPT_EXIT_THREAD to
signal that the kernel thread should exit. The flag is set and tested
while holding cc->write_thread_wait.lock, so there is no possibility of
racy access to the flag.
Also, remove the unnecessary set_task_state(current, TASK_RUNNING)
following the schedule() call. When the process was woken up, its state
was already set to TASK_RUNNING. Other kernel code also doesn't set the
state to TASK_RUNNING following schedule() (for example,
do_wait_for_common in completion.c doesn't do it).

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.
This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.
This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.
o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

Setting the dm-crypt device's max_segment_size to PAGE_SIZE is an
unfortunate constraint that is required to avoid the potential for
exceeding dm-crypt's underlying device's max_segments limits -- due to
crypt_alloc_buffer() possibly allocating pages for the encryption bio
that are not as physically contiguous as the original bio.
It is interesting to note that this problem was already fixed back in
2007 via commit 91e106259 ("dm crypt: use bio_add_page"). But Linux 4.0
commit cf2f1abfb ("dm crypt: don't allocate pages for a partial
request") regressed dm-crypt back to _not_ using bio_add_page(). But
given dm-crypt's cpu parallelization changes all depend on commit
cf2f1abfb's abandoning of the more complex io fragments processing that
dm-crypt previously had we cannot easily go back to using
bio_add_page().
So all said the cleanest way to resolve this issue is to fix dm-crypt to
properly constrain the original bios entering dm-crypt so the encryption
bios that dm-crypt generates from the original bios are always
compatible with the underlying device's max_segments queue limits.
It should be noted that technically Linux 4.3 does _not_ need this fix
because of the block core's new late bio-splitting capability. But, it
is reasoned, there is little to be gained by having the block core split
the encrypted bio that is composed of PAGE_SIZE segments. That said, in
the future we may revert this change.

This work was motivated by hitting an issue where the underlying device

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

This reverts Linux 4.1-rc1 commit 0618764cb2.
The problem which that commit attempts to fix actually lies in the
Freescale CAAM crypto driver not dm-crypt.
dm-crypt uses CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG. This means the the crypto
driver should internally backlog requests which arrive when the queue is
full and process them later. Until the crypto hw's queue becomes full,
the driver returns -EINPROGRESS. When the crypto hw's queue if full,
the driver returns -EBUSY, and if CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG is set, is
expected to backlog the request and process it when the hardware has
queue space. At the point when the driver takes the request from the
backlog and starts processing it, it calls the completion function with
a status of -EINPROGRESS. The completion function is called (for a
second time, in the case of backlogged requests) with a status/err of 0
when a request is done.
Crypto drivers for hardware without hardware queueing use the helpers,
crypto_init_queue(), crypto_enqueue_request(), crypto_dequeue_request()
and crypto_get_backlog() helpers to implement this behaviour correctly,
while others implement this behaviour without these helpers (ccp, for
example).
dm-crypt (before the patch that needs reverting) uses this API
correctly. It queues up as many requests as the hw queues will allow
(i.e. as long as it gets back -EINPROGRESS from the request function).
Then, when it sees at least one backlogged request (gets -EBUSY), it
waits till that backlogged request is handled (completion gets called
with -EINPROGRESS), and then continues. The references to
af_alg_wait_for_completion() and af_alg_complete() in that commit's
commit message are irrelevant because those functions only handle one
request at a time, unlink dm-crypt.
The problem is that the Freescale CAAM driver, which that commit
describes as having being tested with, fails to implement the
backlogging behaviour correctly. In cam_jr_enqueue(), if the hardware
queue is full, it simply returns -EBUSY without backlogging the request.
What the observed deadlock was is not described in the commit message
but it is obviously the wait_for_completion() in crypto_convert() where
dm-crypto would wait for the completion being called with -EINPROGRESS
in the case of backlogged requests. This completion will never be
completed due to the bug in the CAAM driver.
Commit 0618764cb2 incorrectly made dm-crypt wait for every request,
even when the driver/hardware queues are not full, which means that
dm-crypt will never see -EBUSY. This means that that commit will cause
a performance regression on all crypto drivers which implement the API
correctly.
Revert it. Correct backlog handling should be implemented in the CAAM
driver instead.

a stable@ kernel did pick up commit 0618764cb2 it should get reverted.

I suspect this doesn't show up for most anyone because software
algorithms typically don't have a sense of being too busy. However,
when working with the Freescale CAAM driver it will return -EBUSY on
occasion under heavy -- which resulted in dm-crypt deadlock.
After checking the logic in some other drivers, the scheme for
crypt_convert() and it's callback, kcryptd_async_done(), were not
correctly laid out to properly handle -EBUSY or -EINPROGRESS.
Fix this by using the completion for both -EBUSY and -EINPROGRESS. Now
crypt_convert()'s use of completion is comparable to
af_alg_wait_for_completion(). Similarly, kcryptd_async_done() follows
the pattern used in af_alg_complete().
Before this fix dm-crypt would lockup within 1-2 minutes running with
the CAAM driver. Fix was regression tested against software algorithms
on PPC32 and x86_64, and things seem perfectly happy there as well.

Write requests are sorted in a red-black tree structure and are
submitted in the sorted order.
In theory the sorting should be performed by the underlying disk
scheduler, however, in practice the disk scheduler only accepts and
sorts a finite number of requests. To allow the sorting of all
requests, dm-crypt needs to implement its own sorting.
The overhead associated with rbtree-based sorting is considered
negligible so it is not used conditionally. Even on SSD sorting can be
beneficial since in-order request dispatch promotes lower latency IO
completion to the upper layers.

Submitting write bios directly in the encryption thread caused serious
performance degradation. On a multiprocessor machine, encryption requests
finish in a different order than they were submitted. Consequently, write
requests would be submitted in a different order and it could cause severe
performance degradation.
Move the submission of write requests to a separate thread so that the
requests can be sorted before submitting. But this commit improves
dm-crypt performance even without having dm-crypt perform request
sorting (in particular it enables IO schedulers like CFQ to sort more
effectively).
Note: it is required that a previous commit ("dm crypt: don't allocate

Fix a theoretical deadlock introduced in the previous commit ("dm crypt:
don't allocate pages for a partial request").
The function crypt_alloc_buffer may be called concurrently. If we allocate
from the mempool concurrently, there is a possibility of deadlock. For
example, if we have mempool of 256 pages, two processes, each wanting
256, pages allocate from the mempool concurrently, it may deadlock in a
situation where both processes have allocated 128 pages and the mempool
is exhausted.
To avoid such a scenario we allocate the pages under a mutex. In order
to not degrade performance with excessive locking, we try non-blocking
allocations without a mutex first and if that fails, we fallback to a
blocking allocations with a mutex.

Change crypt_alloc_buffer so that it only ever allocates pages for a
full request. This is a prerequisite for the commit "dm crypt: offload
writes to thread".
This change simplifies the dm-crypt code at the expense of reduced
throughput in low memory conditions (where allocation for a partial
request is most useful).
Note: the next commit ("dm crypt: avoid deadlock in mempools") is needed
to fix a theoretical deadlock.

Use unbound workqueue by default so that work is automatically balanced
between available CPUs. The original behavior of encrypting using the
same cpu that IO was submitted on can still be enabled by setting the
optional 'same_cpu_crypt' table argument.

performance requirements that were requested by the Gluster
distributed filesystem. Specifically, dm-thinp now takes care to
aggregate IO that will be issued to the same thinp block before
issuing IO to the underlying devices. This really helps improve
performance on HW RAID6 devices that have a writeback cache because it
avoids RMW in the HW RAID controller.
- Some stable fixes: fix leak in DM bufio if integrity profiles were
enabled, use memzero_explicit in DM crypt to avoid any potential for
information leak, and a DM cache fix to properly mark a cache block
dirty if it was promoted to the cache via the overwrite optimization.
- A few simple DM persistent data library fixes
- DM cache multiqueue policy block promotion improvements.
- DM cache discard improvements that take advantage of range
(multiblock) discard support in the DM bio-prison. This allows for
much more efficient bulk discard processing (e.g. when mkfs.xfs
discards the entire device).
- Some small optimizations in DM core and RCU deference cleanups
- DM core changes to suspend/resume code to introduce the new internal
suspend/resume interface that the DM thin-pool target now uses to
suspend/resume active thin devices when the thin-pool must
suspend/resume. This avoids forcing userspace to track all active
thin volumes in a thin-pool when the thin-pool is suspended for the
purposes of metadata or data space resize.

Use memzero_explicit to cleanup sensitive data allocated on stack
to prevent the compiler from optimizing and removing memset() calls.

Replaced the use of a Variable Length Array In Struct (VLAIS) with a C99
compliant equivalent. This patch allocates the appropriate amount of memory
using a char array using the SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK macro.
The new code can be compiled with both gcc and clang.
