A ublk_io is converted to a request in several places in the I/O path by
using blk_mq_tag_to_rq() to look up the (qid, tag) on the ublk device's
tagset. This involves a bunch of dereferences and a tag bounds check.
To make this conversion cheaper, store the request pointer in ublk_io.
Overlap this storage with the io_uring_cmd pointer. This is safe because
the io_uring_cmd pointer is only valid if UBLK_IO_FLAG_ACTIVE is set on
the ublk_io, the request pointer is valid if UBLK_IO_FLAG_OWNED_BY_SRV,
and these flags are mutually exclusive.

ublk_abort_queue() currently checks whether the UBLK_IO_FLAG_ACTIVE flag
is cleared to tell whether to abort each ublk_io in the queue. But it's
possible for a ublk_io to not be ACTIVE but also not have a request in
flight, such as when no fetch request has yet been submitted for a tag
or when a fetch request is cancelled. So ublk_abort_queue() must
additionally check for an inflight request.
Simplify this code by checking for UBLK_IO_FLAG_OWNED_BY_SRV instead,
which indicates precisely whether a request is currently inflight.

ublk_dispatch_req() currently handles 3 different cases: incoming ublk
requests that don't need to wait for a data buffer, incoming requests
that do need to wait for a buffer, and resuming those requests once the
buffer is provided. But the call site that provides a data buffer
(UBLK_IO_NEED_GET_DATA) is separate from those for incoming requests.
So simplify the function by splitting the UBLK_IO_NEED_GET_DATA case
into its own function ublk_get_data(). This avoids several redundant
checks in the UBLK_IO_NEED_GET_DATA case, and streamlines the incoming
request cases.
Don't call ublk_fill_io_cmd() for UBLK_IO_NEED_GET_DATA, as it's no
longer necessary to set io->cmd or the UBLK_IO_FLAG_ACTIVE flag for
ublk_dispatch_req().
Since UBLK_IO_NEED_GET_DATA no longer relies on ublk_dispatch_req()
calling io_uring_cmd_done(), return the UBLK_IO_RES_OK status directly
from the ->uring_cmd() handler. If ublk_start_io() fails, don't complete
the UBLK_IO_NEED_GET_DATA command, matching the existing behavior.

Move the logic for the UBLK_IO_COMMIT_AND_FETCH_REQ opcode into its own
function. This also allows us to mark ublk_queue pointers as const for
that operation, which can help prevent data races since we may allow
concurrent operation on one ublk_queue in the future. Also open code
ublk_commit_completion in ublk_commit_and_fetch to reduce the number of
parameters/avoid a redundant lookup.

The zoned loop block device driver allows a user to create emulated
zoned block devices using one regular file per zone as backing storage.
Compared to null_blk or scsi_debug, it has the advantage of allowing
emulating large zoned devices without requiring the same amount of
memory as the capacity of the emulated device. Furthermore, zoned
devices emulated with this driver can be re-started after a host reboot
without any loss of the state of the device zones, which is something
that null_blk and scsi_debug do not support.
This initial implementation is simple and does not support zone resource
limits. That is, a zoned loop block device limits for the maximum number
of open zones and maximum number of active zones is always 0.
This driver can be either compiled in-kernel or as a module, named
"zloop". Compilation of this driver depends on the block layer support
for zoned block device (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED must be set).
Using the zloop driver to create and delete zoned block devices is
done by writing commands to the zoned loop control character device file
(/dev/zloop-control). Creating a device is done with:
$ echo "add [options]" > /dev/zloop-control
The options available for the "add" operation cat be listed by reading
the zloop-control device file:
$ cat /dev/zloop-control
add id=%d,capacity_mb=%u,zone_size_mb=%u,zone_capacity_mb=%u,conv_zones=%u,base_dir=%s,nr_queues=%u,queue_depth=%u
remove id=%d
The options available allow controlling the zoned device total
capacity, zone size, zone capactity of sequential zones, total number
of conventional zones, base directory for the zones backing file, number
of I/O queues and the maximum queue depth of I/O queues.
Deleting a device is done using the "remove" command:
$ echo "remove id=0" > /dev/zloop-control
This implementation passes various tests using zonefs and fio (t/zbd
tests) and provides a state machine for zone conditions that is
compliant with the T10 ZBC and NVMe ZNS specifications.

Now ublk_abort_queue() is moved to ublk char device release handler,
meantime our request queue is "quiesced" because either ->canceling was
set from uring_cmd cancel function or all IOs are inflight and can't be
completed by ublk server, things becomes easy much:
- all uring_cmd are done, so we needn't to mark io as UBLK_IO_FLAG_ABORTED
for handling completion from uring_cmd
- ublk char device is closed, no one can hold IO request reference any more,
so we can simply complete this request or requeue it for ublk_nosrv_should_reissue_outstanding.

There are currently two ways in which ublk server exit is detected by
ublk_drv:
1. uring_cmd cancellation. If there are any outstanding uring_cmds which
have not been completed to the ublk server when it exits, io_uring
calls the uring_cmd callback with a special cancellation flag as the
issuing task is exiting.
2. I/O timeout. This is needed in addition to the above to handle the
"saturated queue" case, when all I/Os for a given queue are in the
ublk server, and therefore there are no outstanding uring_cmds to
cancel when the ublk server exits.
There are a couple of issues with this approach:
- It is complex and inelegant to have two methods to detect the same
condition
- The second method detects ublk server exit only after a long delay
(~30s, the default timeout assigned by the block layer). This delays
the nosrv behavior from kicking in and potential subsequent recovery
of the device.
The second issue is brought to light with the new test_generic_06 which
will be added in following patch. It fails before this fix:
selftests: ublk: test_generic_06.sh
dev id is 0
dd: error writing '/dev/ublkb0': Input/output error
1+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes copied, 30.0611 s, 0.0 kB/s
DEAD
dd took 31 seconds to exit (>= 5s tolerance)!
generic_06 : [FAIL]
Fix this by instead detecting and handling ublk server exit in the
character file release callback. This has several advantages:
- This one place can handle both saturated and unsaturated queues. Thus,
it replaces both preexisting methods of detecting ublk server exit.
- It runs quickly on ublk server exit - there is no 30s delay.
- It starts the process of removing task references in ublk_drv. This is
needed if we want to relax restrictions in the driver like letting
only one thread serve each queue
There is also the disadvantage that the character file release callback
can also be triggered by intentional close of the file, which is a
significant behavior change. Preexisting ublk servers (libublksrv) are
dependent on the ability to open/close the file multiple times. To
address this, only transition to a nosrv state if the file is released
while the ublk device is live. This allows for programs to open/close
the file multiple times during setup. It is still a behavior change if a
ublk server decides to close/reopen the file while the device is LIVE
(i.e. while it is responsible for serving I/O), but that would be highly
unusual. This behavior is in line with what is done by FUSE, which is
very similar to ublk in that a userspace daemon is providing services
traditionally provided by the kernel.
With this change in, the new test (and all other selftests, and all
ublksrv tests) pass:
selftests: ublk: test_generic_06.sh
dev id is 0
dd: error writing '/dev/ublkb0': Input/output error
1+0 records in
0+0 records out

ublk_ch_release() is called after ublk char device is closed, when all
uring_cmd are done, so it is perfect fine to move ublk device reset to
ublk_ch_release() from ublk_ctrl_start_recovery().
This way can avoid to grab the exiting daemon task_struct too long.
However, reset of the following ublk IO flags has to be moved until ublk
io_uring queues are ready:
- ubq->canceling
For requeuing IO in case of ublk_nosrv_dev_should_queue_io() before device
is recovered
- ubq->fail_io
For failing IO in case of UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY_FAIL_IO before device is
recovered
- ublk_io->flags
For preventing using io->cmd
With this way, recovery is simplified a lot.

Now ublk deals with ublk_nosrv_dev_should_queue_io() by keeping request
queue as quiesced. This way is fragile because queue quiesce crosses syscalls
or process contexts.
Switch to rely on ubq->canceling for dealing with
ublk_nosrv_dev_should_queue_io(), because it has been used for this purpose
during io_uring context exiting, and it can be reused before recovering too.
In ublk_queue_rq(), the request will be added to requeue list without
kicking off requeue in case of ubq->canceling, and finally requests added in
requeue list will be dispatched from either ublk_stop_dev() or
ublk_ctrl_end_recovery().
Meantime we have to move reset of ubq->canceling from ublk_ctrl_start_recovery()
to ublk_ctrl_end_recovery(), when IO handling can be recovered completely.
Then blk_mq_quiesce_queue() and blk_mq_unquiesce_queue() are always used
in same context.

Add ublk_force_abort_dev() for handling ublk_nosrv_dev_should_queue_io()
in ublk_stop_dev(). Then queue quiesce and unquiesce can be paired in
single function.
Meantime not change device state to QUIESCED any more, since the disk is
going to be removed soon.

Most uring_cmds issued against ublk character devices are serialized
because each command affects only one queue, and there is an early check
which only allows a single task (the queue's ubq_daemon) to issue
uring_cmds against that queue. However, this mechanism does not work for
FETCH_REQs, since they are expected before ubq_daemon is set. Since
FETCH_REQs are only used at initialization and not in the fast path,
serialize them using the per-ublk-device mutex. This fixes a number of
data races that were previously possible if a badly behaved ublk server
decided to issue multiple FETCH_REQs against the same qid/tag
concurrently.

vfs_iter_{read,write} always perform direct I/O when the file has the
O_DIRECT flag set, which breaks disabling direct I/O using the
LOOP_SET_STATUS / LOOP_SET_STATUS64 ioctls.
This was recenly reported as a regression, but as far as I can tell
was only uncovered by better checking for block sizes and has been
around since the direct I/O support was added.
Fix this by using the existing aio code that calls the raw read/write
iter methods instead. Note that despite the comments there is no need
for block drivers to ever call flush_dcache_page themselves, and the
call is a left-over from prehistoric times.

Remove the suppression of the uevents before scanning for partitions.
The partitions inherit their suppression settings from their parent device,
which lead to the uevents being dropped.

The original commit message and the wording "uncork" in the code comment
indicate that it is expected that the suppressed event instances are
automatically sent after unsuppressing.
This is not the case, instead they are discarded.
In effect this means that no "changed" events are emitted on the device
itself by default.
While each discovered partition does trigger a changed event on the
device, devices without partitions don't have any event emitted.
This makes udev miss the device creation and prompted workarounds in
userspace. See the linked util-linux/losetup bug.
Explicitly emit the events and drop the confusingly worded comments.

blk_mq_alloc_disk() already zero-initializes the destination buffer,
making strscpy() sufficient for safely copying the disk's name. The
additional NUL-padding performed by strscpy_pad() is unnecessary.
If the destination buffer has a fixed length, strscpy() automatically
determines its size using sizeof() when the argument is omitted. This
makes the explicit size argument unnecessary.
The source string is also NUL-terminated and meets the __must_be_cstr()
requirement of strscpy().
No functional changes intended.
