improve use_mm / unuse_mm

improve use_mm / unuse_mm

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

this series improves the use_mm / unuse_mm interface by better
documenting the assumptions, and my taking the set_fs manipulations
spread over the callers into the core API.

[PATCH 1/6] amdgpu: a NULL ->mm does not mean a thread is a kthread

[Christoph Hellwig]

Use the proper API instead.

hi
we were removing this code. see
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20200313031109.7989-1-yan.y.zhao@intel.com/

The implementation of vfio_dma_rw() has been in vfio next tree.
https://github.com/awilliam/linux-vfio/commit/8d46c0cca5f4dc0538173d62cd36b1119b5105bc

in vfio_dma_rw(),  we still use
bool kthread = current->mm == NULL.
because if current->mm != NULL and current->flags & PF_KTHREAD, instead
of calling use_mm(), we first check if (current->mm == mm) and allow copy_to_user() if it's true.

Do you think it's all right?

Thanks
Yan

This didn't make 5.7-rc1.

This made 5.7-rc1, so I'll update the series to take it into account.

I can't think of another way for a kernel thread to have a mm indeed.

for example, before calling to vfio_dma_rw(), a kernel thread has already
called use_mm(), then its current->mm is not null, and it has flag
PF_KTHREAD.
in this case, we just want to allow the copy_to_user() directly if
current->mm == mm, rather than call another use_mm() again.

do you think it makes sense?

Thanks

I mean no other way than using use_mm.  That being said nesting
potentional use_mm callers sounds like a rather bad idea, and we
should avoid that.

yes, agree.
I was explaining why we just use "current->mm == NULL"
(not "current->flag & PF_KTHREAD") as a criteria to call use_mm()
in vfio_dma_rw(), which you might ask us when you take that part into your
series. :)

[PATCH 4/6] kernel: move use_mm/unuse_mm to kthread.c

[Christoph Hellwig]

These helpers are only for use with kernel threads, and I will tie them
more into the kthread infrastructure going forward.  Also move the
prototypes to kthread.h - mmu_context.h was a little weird to start with
as it otherwise contains very low-level MM bits.

[PATCH 5/6] kernel: better document the use_mm/unuse_mm API contract

[Christoph Hellwig]

Switch the function documentation to kerneldoc comments, and add
WARN_ON_ONCE asserts that the calling thread is a kernel thread and
does not have ->mm set (or has ->mm set in the case of unuse_mm).

Also give the functions a kthread_ prefix to better document the
use case.

[PATCH 6/6] kernel: set USER_DS in kthread_use_mm

[Christoph Hellwig]

Some architectures like arm64 and s390 require USER_DS to be set for
kernel threads to access user address space, which is the whole purpose
of kthread_use_mm, but other like x86 don't.  That has lead to a huge
mess where some callers are fixed up once they are tested on said
architectures, while others linger around and yet other like io_uring
try to do "clever" optimizations for what usually is just a trivial
asignment to a member in the thread_struct for most architectures.

Make kthread_use_mm set USER_DS, and kthread_unuse_mm restore to the
previous value instead.
