The 9p-virtio transport does zero copy on things larger than 1024 bytes
in size. It accomplishes this by returning the physical addresses of
pages to the virtio-pci device. At present, the translation is usually a
bit shift.That approach produces an invalid page address when we read/write to
vmalloc buffers, such as those used for Linux kernel modules. Any
attempt to load a Linux kernel module from 9p-virtio produces the
following stack.[] p9_virtio_zc_request+0x45e/0x510
[] p9_client_zc_rpc.constprop.16+0xfd/0x4f0
[] p9_client_read+0x15d/0x240

[] vfs_read+0x9b/0x160
[] kernel_read+0x41/0x60
[] copy_module_from_fd.isra.34+0xfb/0x180Subsequently, QEMU will die printing:
qemu-system-x86_64: virtio: trying to map MMIO memory
This patch enables 9p-virtio to correctly handle this case. This not
only enables us to load Linux kernel modules off virtfs, but also
enables ZFS file-based vdevs on virtfs to be used without killing QEMU.Special thanks to both Avi Kivity and Alexander Graf for their
interpretation of QEMU backtraces. Without their guidence, tracking down
this bug would have taken much longer. Also, special thanks to Linus
Torvalds for his insightful explanation of why this should use
is_vmalloc_addr() instead of is_vmalloc_or_module_addr():https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/8/272

exit_task_namespaces() has been called, leaving current->nsproxy->uts_ns
as NULL and causing the above dereference.A similar issue was fixed for lockd in 9a1b6bf818e7 ("LOCKD: Don't call

RDMA needs to post a buffer for each incoming reply.
Hence it needs to keep count of these and needs to be
aware of whether a flushed request has received a reply
or not.This patch adds the cancelled() callback to the transport modules.

request will never receive a reply.Signed-off-by: Simon Derr

In rdma_request():
If an error occurs between posting the recv and the send,

rdma_request() should never be in charge of freeing rc.
When an error occurs:

hence it needs not be freed.Signed-off-by: Simon Derr

The current code keeps track of the number of buffers posted in the RQ,
and will prevent it from overflowing. But it does so by simply dropping
post requests (And leaking memory in the process).
When this happens there will actually be too few buffers posted, and
soon the 9P server will complain about 'RNR retry counter exceeded'
errors.Instead, use a semaphore, and block until the RQ is ready for another
buffer to be posted.Signed-off-by: Simon Derr

Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen -
The current code assumes that when a request in the request array
does have a tc, it also has a rc.This is normally true, but not always : when using RDMA, req->rc
will temporarily be set to NULL after the request has been sent.
That is usually OK though, as when the reply arrives, req->rc will be
reassigned to a sane value before the request is recycled.But there is a catch : if the request is flushed, the reply will never
arrive, and req->rc will be NULL, but not req->tc.This patch fixes p9_tag_alloc to take this into account.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Pull user namespace and namespace infrastructure changes from Eric W Biederman:
"This set of changes starts with a few small enhnacements to the user
namespace. reboot support, allowing more arbitrary mappings, and
support for mounting devpts, ramfs, tmpfs, and mqueuefs as just the
user namespace root.I do my best to document that if you care about limiting your
unprivileged users that when you have the user namespace support
enabled you will need to enable memory control groups.There is a minor bug fix to prevent overflowing the stack if someone
creates way too many user namespaces.The bulk of the changes are a continuation of the kuid/kgid push down
work through the filesystems. These changes make using uids and gids
typesafe which ensures that these filesystems are safe to use when
multiple user namespaces are in use. The filesystems converted for
3.9 are ceph, 9p, afs, ocfs2, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, and cifs. The
changes for these filesystems were a little more involved so I split
the changes into smaller hopefully obviously correct changes.XFS is the only filesystem that remains. I was hoping I could get
that in this release so that user namespace support would be enabled
with an allyesconfig or an allmodconfig but it looks like the xfs
changes need another couple of days before it they are ready."* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (93 commits)

9p has thre strucrtures that can encode inode stat information. Modify
all of those structures to contain kuid_t and kgid_t values. Modify
he wire encoders and decoders of those structures to use 'u' and 'g' instead of
'd' in the format string where uids and gids are present.This results in all kuid and kgid conversion to and from on the wire values
being performed by the same code in protocol.c where the client is known
at the time of the conversion.Cc: Eric Van Hensbergen

Modify the p9_client_rpc format specifiers of every function that
directly transmits a uid or a gid from 'd' to 'u' or 'g' as
appropriate.Modify those same functions to take kuid_t and kgid_t parameters
instead of uid_t and gid_t parameters.Cc: Eric Van Hensbergen
