This adds the napi busy polling support in io_uring.c. It adds a new
napi_list to the io_ring_ctx structure. This list contains the list of
napi_id's that are currently enabled for busy polling. The list is
synchronized by the new napi_lock spin lock. The current default napi
busy polling time is stored in napi_busy_poll_to. If napi busy polling
is not enabled, the value is 0.

In addition there is also a hash table. The hash table store the napi
id and the pointer to the above list nodes. The hash table is used to
speed up the lookup to the list elements. The hash table is synchronized
with rcu.

The NAPI_TIMEOUT is stored as a timeout to make sure that the time a
napi entry is stored in the napi list is limited.

The busy poll timeout is also stored as part of the io_wait_queue. This
is necessary as for sq polling the poll interval needs to be adjusted
and the napi callback allows only to pass in one value.

This has been tested with two simple programs from the liburing library
repository: the napi client and the napi server program. The client
sends a request, which has a timestamp in its payload and the server
replies with the same payload. The client calculates the roundtrip time
and stores it to calculate the results.

The client is running on host1 and the server is running on host 2 (in
the same rack). The measured times below are roundtrip times. They are
average times over 5 runs each. Each run measures 1 million roundtrips.

  net: add napi_busy_loop_rcu()

This adds the napi_busy_loop_rcu() function. This function assumes that
the calling function is already holding the rcu read lock and
napi_busy_loop() does not need to take the rcu read lock. Add a
NAPI_F_NO_SCHED flag, which tells __napi_busy_loop() to abort if we
need to reschedule rather than drop the RCU read lock and reschedule.

Decouple from task_work running, and cap the number of entries we process
at the time. If we exceed that number, push remaining entries to a retry
list that we'll process first next time.

We cap the number of entries to process at 8, which is fairly random.
We just want to get enough per-ctx batching here, while not processing
endlessly.

Since we manually run PF_IO_WORKER related task_work anyway as the task
never exits to userspace, with this we no longer need to add an actual
task_work item to the per-process list.

If we have a ton of notifications coming in, we can be looping in here
for a long time. This can be problematic for various reasons, mostly
because we can starve userspace. If the application is waiting on N
events, then only re-run if we need more events.

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

For local task_work, which is used if IORING_SETUP_DEFER_TASKRUN is set,
we reverse the order of the lockless list before processing the work.
This is done to process items in the order in which they were queued, as
the llist always adds to the head.

Do the same for traditional task_work, so we have the same behavior for
both types.

We no longer loop in task_work handling, hence delete the argument from
the tracepoint as it's always 1 and hence not very informative.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

A previous commit added looping around handling traditional task_work
as an optimization, and while that may seem like a good idea, it's also
possible to run into application starvation doing so. If the task_work
generation is bursty, we can get very deep task_work queues, and we can
end up looping in here for a very long time.

One immediately observable problem with that is handling network traffic
using provided buffers, where flooding incoming traffic and looping
task_work handling will very quickly lead to buffer starvation as we
keep running task_work rather than returning to the application so it
can handle the associated CQEs and also provide buffers back.

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

We have various functions calculating the CQE cflags we need to pass
back, but it's all the same everywhere. Make a number of the putting
functions void, and just have the two main helps for this, io_put_kbuf()
and io_put_kbuf_comp() calculate the actual mask and pass it back.

While at it, cleanup how we put REQ_F_BUFFER_RING buffers. Before
this change, we would call into __io_put_kbuf() only to go right back
in to the header defined functions. As clearing this type of buffer
is just re-assigning the buf_index and incrementing the head, this
is very wasteful.

This adds a flag to avoid dipping dereferencing file and then f_op to
figure out if the file has a poll handler defined or not. We generally
call this at least twice for networked workloads, and if using ring
provided buffers, we do it on every buffer selection. Particularly the
latter is troublesome, as it's otherwise a very fast operation.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Just leave it unset by default, avoiding dipping into the last
cacheline (which is otherwise untouched) for the fast path of using
poll to drive networked traffic. Add a flag that tells us if the
sequence is valid or not, and then we can defer actually assigning
the flag and sequence until someone runs cancelations.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

We're out of space here, and none of the flags are easily reclaimable.
Bump it to 64-bits and re-arrange the struct a bit to avoid gaps.

Add a specific bitwise type for the request flags, io_request_flags_t.
This will help catch violations of casting this value to a smaller type
on 32-bit archs, like unsigned int.

This creates a hole in the io_kiocb, so move nr_tw up and rsrc_node down
to retain needing only cacheline 0 and 1 for non-polled opcodes.

Pull tracing and eventfs fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix the return code for ring_buffer_poll_wait()

   It was returing a -EINVAL instead of EPOLLERR.

 - Zero out the tracefs_inode so that all fields are initialized.

   The ti->private could have had stale data, but instead of just
   initializing it to NULL, clear out the entire structure when it is
   allocated.

 - Fix a crash in timerlat

   The hrtimer was initialized at read and not open, but is canceled at
   close. If the file was opened and never read the close will pass a
   NULL pointer to hrtime_cancel().

 - Rewrite of eventfs.

   Linus wrote a patch series to remove the dentry references in the
   eventfs_inode and to use ref counting and more of proper VFS
   interfaces to make it work.

 - Add warning to put_ei() if ei is not set to free. That means
   something is about to free it when it shouldn't.

 - Restructure the eventfs_inode to make it more compact, and remove the
   unused llist field.

 - Remove the fsnotify*() funtions for when the inodes were being
   created in the lookup code. It doesn't make sense to notify about
   creation just because something is being looked up.

 - The inode hard link count was not accurate.

   It was being updated when a file was looked up. The inodes of
   directories were updating their parent inode hard link count every
   time the inode was created. That means if memory reclaim cleaned a
   stale directory inode and the inode was lookup up again, it would
   increment the parent inode again as well. Al Viro said to just have
   all eventfs directories have a hard link count of 1. That tells user
   space not to trust it.
