The only difference between set_notify_signal() and __set_notify_signal()
is that the former checks if it needs to deliver an IPI to force a
reschedule. As the io-wq workers never leave the kernel, and IPI is never
needed, they simply need a wakeup.

Pull ptrace cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of
the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing
permission check to ptrace.c
The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around
task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the
semantics clearer).
For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
bit at a time. To the point where anything left in tracehook.h was
some weird strange thing that was difficult to understand"

There are a small handful of reasons besides pending signals that the
kernel might want to break out of interruptible sleeps. The flag
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and the helpers that set and clear TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL
provide that the infrastructure for breaking out of interruptible
sleeps and entering the return to user space slow path for those
cases.
Expand tracehook_notify_signal inline in it's callers and remove it,
which makes clear that TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and task_work are separate
concepts.
Update the comment on set_notify_signal to more accurately describe
it's purpose.

wqe->lock is abused, it now protects acct->work_list, hash stuff,
nr_workers, wqe->free_list and so on. Lets first get the work_list out
of the wqe-lock mess by introduce a specific lock for work list. This
is the first step to solve the huge contension between work insertion
and work consumption.
good thing:
- split locking for bound and unbound work list
- reduce contension between work_list visit and (worker's)free_list.
For the hash stuff, since there won't be a work with same file in both
bound and unbound work list, thus they won't visit same hash entry. it
works well to use the new lock to protect hash stuff.
Results:
set max_unbound_worker = 4, test with echo-server:
nice -n -15 ./io_uring_echo_server -p 8081 -f -n 1000 -l 16
(-n connection, -l workload)

We have a gap where a worker removes an item from the work list and to
when it gets added as the workers active work. In this state, the work
item cannot be found by cancelations. This is a small window, but it does
exist.
Add a temporary pointer to a work item that isn't on the pending work
list anymore, but also not the active work. This is needed as we need
to drop the wqe lock in between grabbing the work item and marking it
as active, to ensure that signal based cancelations are properly
ordered.

Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups
which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found
along the way.
The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals
that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from
complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing
userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops
to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all
architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on
the stack.
Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task
are the big successes for dead code removal this round.
A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues
reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I
simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes
they were fixing.
There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I
dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with
something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some
rebasing.
Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls
to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of
struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the
pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The
flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is
removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with
signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed.
There are several loosely related changes included because I am
cleaning up and if I don't include them they will probably get lost.

The point of using set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer was that
it already did what is necessary. There are now restrictions on when
set_child_tid can be initialized and when set_child_tid can be used in
schedule_tail. Which indicates that continuing to use set_child_tid
to hold the kthread pointer is a bad idea.
Instead of continuing to use the set_child_tid field of task_struct
generalize the pf_io_worker field of task_struct and use it to hold
the kthread pointer.
Rename pf_io_worker (which is a void * pointer) to worker_private so
it can be used to store kthreads struct kthread pointer. Update the
kthread code to store the kthread pointer in the worker_private field.
Remove the places where set_child_tid had to be dealt with carefully
because kthreads also used it.

We have two io-wq creation paths:
- On queue enqueue
- When a worker goes to sleep
The latter invokes worker creation with the wqe->lock held, but that can

We check IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT before attempting to create a new worker, and
wq exit cancels pending work if we have any. But it's possible to have
a race between the two, where creation checks exit finding it not set,
but we're in the process of exiting. The exit side will cancel pending
creation task_work, but there's a gap where we add task_work after we've
canceled existing creations at exit time.
Fix this by checking the EXIT bit post adding the creation task_work.
If it's set, run the same cancelation that exit does.

- Add LSM/SELinux/Smack controls and auditing for io-uring.
As usual, the individual commit descriptions have more detail, but we
were basically missing two things which we're adding here:
+ establishment of a proper audit context so that auditing of
io-uring ops works similarly to how it does for syscalls (with
some io-uring additions because io-uring ops are *not* syscalls)
+ additional LSM hooks to enable access control points for some of
the more unusual io-uring features, e.g. credential overrides.
The additional audit callouts and LSM hooks were done in conjunction
with the io-uring folks, based on conversations and RFC patches
earlier in the year.
- Fixup the binder credential handling so that the proper credentials
are used in the LSM hooks; the commit description and the code
comment which is removed in these patches are helpful to understand
the background and why this is the proper fix.
- Enable SELinux genfscon policy support for securityfs, allowing
improved SELinux filesystem labeling for other subsystems which make
use of securityfs, e.g. IMA.

io-wq worker may submit a task_work to the master task and upon
io_worker_exit() wait for the tw to get executed. The problem appears
when the master task is waiting in coredump.c:
468 freezer_do_not_count();
469 wait_for_completion(&core_state->startup);
470 freezer_count();
Apparently having some dependency on children threads getting everything
stuck. Workaround it by cancelling the taks_work callback that causes it
before going into io_worker_exit() waiting.
p.s. probably a better option is to not submit tw elevating the refcount
in the first place, but let's leave this excercise for the future.

First, fix nr_workers checks against max_workers, with max_worker
registration, it may pretty easily happen that nr_workers > max_workers.
Also, synchronise writing to acct->max_worker with wqe->lock. It's not
an actual problem, but as we don't care about io_wqe_create_worker(),
it's better than WRITE_ONCE()/READ_ONCE().

io-wq threads block all signals, except SIGKILL and SIGSTOP. We should not
need any extra checking of signal_pending or fatal_signal_pending, rely
exclusively on whether or not get_signal() tells us to exit.
The original debugging of this issue led to the false positive that we
were exiting on non-fatal signals, but that is not the case. The issue
was around races with nr_workers accounting.

This patch adds basic auditing to io_uring operations, regardless of
their context. This is accomplished by allocating audit_context
structures for the io-wq worker and io_uring SQPOLL kernel threads
as well as explicitly auditing the io_uring operations in
io_issue_sqe(). Individual io_uring operations can bypass auditing
through the "audit_skip" field in the struct io_op_def definition for
the operation; although great care must be taken so that security
relevant io_uring operations do not bypass auditing; please contact
the audit mailing list (see the MAINTAINERS file) with any questions.
The io_uring operations are audited using a new AUDIT_URINGOP record,
an example is shown below:
type=UNKNOWN[1336] msg=audit(1631800225.981:37289):
uring_op=19 success=yes exit=0 items=0 ppid=15454 pid=15681

If a task is queueing async work and also handling signals, then we can
run into the case where create_io_thread() is interrupted and returns
failure because of that. If this happens for creating the first worker
in a group, then that worker will never get created and we can hang the
ring.
If we do get a fork failure, retry from task_work. With signals we have
to be a bit careful as we cannot simply queue as task_work, as we'll
still have signals pending at that point. Punt over a normal workqueue
first and then create from task_work after that.
Lastly, ensure that we handle fatal worker creations. Worker creation
failures are normally not fatal, only if we fail to create one in an empty
worker group can we not make progress. Right now that is ignored, ensure
that we handle that and run cancel on the work item.
There are two paths that create new workers - one is the "existing worker
going to sleep", and the other is "no workers found for this work, create
one". The former is never fatal, as workers do exist in the group. Only
the latter needs to be carefully handled.

It makes the logic easier to follow if we just get rid of the fixed worker
flag, and simply ensure that we never exit the last worker in the group.
This also means that no particular worker is special.
Just track the last timeout state, and if we have hit it and no work
is pending, check if there are other workers. If yes, then we can exit
this one safely.

We've got a few issues that all boil down to the fact that we have one
list of pending work items, yet two different types of workers to
serve them. This causes some oddities around workers switching type and
even hashed work vs regular work on the same bounded list.
Just separate them out cleanly, similarly to how we already do
accounting of what is running. That provides a clean separation and
removes some corner cases that can cause stalls when handling IO
that is punted to io-wq.

The attempt to find and activate a free worker for new work is currently
combined with creating a new one if we don't find one, but that opens
io-wq up to a race where the worker that is found and activated can
put itself to sleep without knowing that it has been selected to perform
this new work.
Fix this by moving the activation into where we add the new work item,
then we can retain it within the wqe->lock scope and elimiate the race
with the worker itself checking inside the lock, but sleeping outside of
it.

When new work is added, io_wqe_enqueue() checks if we need to wake or
create a new worker. But that check is done outside the lock that
otherwise synchronizes us with a worker going to sleep, so we can end
up in the following situation:
CPU0 CPU1
lock
insert work
unlock
atomic_read(nr_running) != 0
lock
atomic_dec(nr_running)
no wakeup needed
Hold the wqe lock around the "need to wakeup" check. Then we can also get
rid of the temporary work_flags variable, as we know the work will remain
valid as long as we hold the lock.

For the two places where new workers are created, we diligently check if
we are allowed to create a new worker. If we're currently at the limit
of how many workers of a given type we can have, then we don't create
any new ones.
If you have a mixed workload with various types of bound and unbounded
work, then it can happen that a worker finishes one type of work and
is then transitioned to the other type. For this case, we don't check
if we are actually allowed to do so. This can cause io-wq to temporarily
exceed the allowed number of workers for a given type.
When retrieving work, check that the types match. If they don't, check
if we are allowed to transition to the other type. If not, then don't
handle the new work.

io-wq divides work into two categories:
1) Work that completes in a bounded time, like reading from a regular file
or a block device. This type of work is limited based on the size of
the SQ ring.
2) Work that may never complete, we call this unbounded work. The amount
of workers here is just limited by RLIMIT_NPROC.
For various uses cases, it's handy to have the kernel limit the maximum
amount of pending workers for both categories. Provide a way to do with
with a new IORING_REGISTER_IOWQ_MAX_WORKERS operation.
IORING_REGISTER_IOWQ_MAX_WORKERS takes an array of two integers and sets
the max worker count to what is being passed in for each category. The
old values are returned into that same array. If 0 is being passed in for
either category, it simply returns the current value.
The value is capped at RLIMIT_NPROC. This actually isn't that important
as it's more of a hint, if we're exceeding the value then our attempt
to fork a new worker will fail. This happens naturally already if more
than one node is in the system, as these values are per-node internally
for io-wq.

which is due to the RT kernel not liking a GFP_ATOMIC allocation inside
a raw spinlock. Besides that not working on RT, doing any kind of
allocation from inside schedule() is kind of nasty and should be avoided
if at all possible.
This particular path happens when an io-wq worker goes to sleep, and we
need a new worker to handle pending work. We currently allocate a small
data item to hold the information we need to create a new worker, but we
can instead include this data in the io_worker struct itself and just
protect it with a single bit lock. We only really need one per worker
anyway, as we will have run pending work between to sleep cycles.
