      io_uring: support for user allocated memory for rings/sqes · 03d89a2d
      Jens Axboe authored 
      Currently io_uring applications must call mmap(2) twice to map the rings
themselves, and the sqes array. This works fine, but it does not support
using huge pages to back the rings/sqes.

Provide a way for the application to pass in pre-allocated memory for
the rings/sqes, which can then suitably be allocated from shmfs or
via mmap to get huge page support.

Particularly for larger rings, this reduces the TLBs needed.

If an application wishes to take advantage of that, it must pre-allocate
the memory needed for the sq/cq ring, and the sqes. The former must
be passed in via the io_uring_params->cq_off.user_data field, while the
latter is passed in via the io_uring_params->sq_off.user_data field. Then
it must set IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP in the io_uring_params->flags field,
and io_uring will then map the existing memory into the kernel for shared
use. The application must not call mmap(2) to map rings as it otherwise
would have, that will now fail with -EINVAL if this setup flag was used.

The pages used for the rings and sqes must be contigious. The intent here
is clearly that huge pages should be used, otherwise the normal setup
procedure works fine as-is. The application may use one huge page for
both the rings and sqes.

Outside of those initialization changes, everything works like it did
before.

      io_uring: add ring freeing helper · 9c189eee
      Jens Axboe authored 
      We do rings and sqes separately, move them into a helper that does both
the freeing and clearing of the memory.

      io_uring: return error pointer from io_mem_alloc() · e27cef86
      Jens Axboe authored 
      In preparation for having more than one time of ring allocator, make the
existing one return valid/error-pointer rather than just NULL.

      io_uring: remove sq/cq_off memset · 9b1b58ca
      Jens Axboe authored 
      We only have two reserved members we're not clearing, do so manually
instead. This is in preparation for using one of these members for
a new feature.

      x86/retbleed: Fix return thunk alignment · 9a48d604
      Borislav Petkov (AMD) authored 
      SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN() adds an endbr leading to this layout
(leaving only the last 2 bytes of the address):

  3bff <zen_untrain_ret>:
  3bff:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
  3c03:       f6                      test   $0xcc,%bl

  3c04 <__x86_return_thunk>:
  3c04:       c3                      ret
  3c05:       cc                      int3
  3c06:       0f ae e8                lfence

However, "the RET at __x86_return_thunk must be on a 64 byte boundary,
for alignment within the BTB."

Use SYM_START instead.

      Pull more btrfs fixes from David Sterba:

 - fix incorrect number of bitmap entries for space cache if loading is
   interrupted by some error

 - fix backref walking, this breaks a mode of LOGICAL_INO_V2 ioctl that
   is used in deduplication tools

 - zoned mode fixes:
      - properly finish zone reserved for relocation
      - correctly calculate super block zone end on ZNS
      - properly initialize new extent buffer for redirty

 - make mount option clear_cache work with block-group-tree, to rebuild
   free-space-tree instead of temporarily disabling it that would lead
   to a forced read-only mount

 - fix alignment check for offset when printing extent item

* tag 'for-6.4-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux:
  btrfs: make clear_cache mount option to rebuild FST without disabling it
  btrfs: zero the buffer before marking it dirty in btrfs_redirty_list_add
  btrfs: zoned: fix full zone super block reading on ZNS
  btrfs: zoned: zone finish data relocation BG with last IO
  btrfs: fix backref walking not returning all inode refs
  btrfs: fix space cache inconsistency after error loading it from disk
  btrfs: print-tree: parent bytenr must be aligned to sector size
