x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.

Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().

Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.

One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

iov_iter: refactor rw_copy_check_uvector and import_iovec

Split rw_copy_check_uvector into two new helpers with more sensible
calling conventions:

- iovec_from_user copies a iovec from userspace either into the provided
stack buffer if it fits, or allocates a new buffer for it. Returns
the actually used iovec. It also verifies that iov_len does fit a
signed type, and handles compat iovecs if the compat flag is set.
- __import_iovec consolidates the native and compat versions of
import_iovec. It calls iovec_from_user, then validates each iovec
actually points to user addresses, and ensures the total length
doesn't overflow.

This has two major implications:

- the access_process_vm case loses the total lenght checking, which
wasn't required anyway, given that each call receives two iovecs
for the local and remote side of the operation, and it verifies
the total length on the local side already.
- instead of a single loop there now are two loops over the iovecs.
Given that the iovecs are cache hot this doesn't make a major
difference

saner calling conventions for csum_and_copy_..._user()

All callers of these primitives will
* discard anything we might've copied in case of error
* ignore the csum value in case of error
* always pass 0xffffffff as the initial sum, so the
resulting csum value (in case of success, that is) will never be 0.

That suggest the following calling conventions:
* don't pass err_ptr - just return 0 on error.
* don't bother with zeroing destination, etc. in case of error
* don't pass the initial sum - just use 0xffffffff.

This commit does the minimal conversion in the instances of csum_and_copy_...();
the changes of actual asm code behind them are done later in the series.
Note that this asm code is often shared with csum_partial_copy_nocheck();
the difference is that csum_partial_copy_nocheck() passes 0 for initial
sum while csum_and_copy_..._user() pass 0xffffffff. Fortunately, we are
free to pass 0xffffffff in all cases and subsequent patches will use that
freedom without any special comments.

A part that could be split off: parisc and uml/i386 claimed to have
csum_and_copy_to_user() instances of their own, but those were identical
to the generic one, so we simply drop them. Not sure if it's worth
a separate commit...

iov_iter: Move unnecessary inclusion of crypto/hash.h

The header file linux/uio.h includes crypto/hash.h which pulls in
most of the Crypto API. Since linux/uio.h is used throughout the
kernel this means that every tiny bit of change to the Crypto API
causes the entire kernel to get rebuilt.

This patch fixes this by moving it into lib/iov_iter.c instead
where it is actually used.

This patch also fixes the ifdef to use CRYPTO_HASH instead of just
CRYPTO which does not guarantee the existence of ahash.

Unfortunately a number of drivers were relying on linux/uio.h to
provide access to linux/slab.h. This patch adds inclusions of
linux/slab.h as detected by build failures.

Also skbuff.h was relying on this to provide a declaration for
ahash_request. This patch adds a forward declaration instead.

This allows for a pipe that is both writable by the general kernel

pipe: Use head and tail pointers for the ring, not cursor and length

Convert pipes to use head and tail pointers for the buffer ring rather than
pointer and length as the latter requires two atomic ops to update (or a
combined op) whereas the former only requires one.

(1) The head pointer is the point at which production occurs and points to
the slot in which the next buffer will be placed. This is equivalent
to pipe->curbuf + pipe->nrbufs.

The head pointer belongs to the write-side.

(2) The tail pointer is the point at which consumption occurs. It points
to the next slot to be consumed. This is equivalent to pipe->curbuf.

The tail pointer belongs to the read-side.

(3) head and tail are allowed to run to UINT_MAX and wrap naturally. They
are only masked off when the array is being accessed, e.g.:

pipe->bufs[head & mask]

This means that it is not necessary to have a dead slot in the ring as
head == tail isn't ambiguous.

(4) The ring is empty if "head == tail".

A helper, pipe_empty(), is provided for this.

(5) The occupancy of the ring is "head - tail".

A helper, pipe_occupancy(), is provided for this.

(6) The number of free slots in the ring is "pipe->ring_size - occupancy".

A helper, pipe_space_for_user() is provided to indicate how many slots
userspace may use.

(7) The ring is full if "head - tail >= pipe->ring_size".

A helper, pipe_full(), is provided for this.

multiple drivers.

compat_ioctl: reimplement SG_IO handling

There are two code locations that implement the SG_IO ioctl: the old
sg.c driver, and the generic scsi_ioctl helper that is in turn used by
multiple drivers.

To eradicate the old compat_ioctl conversion handler for the SG_IO
command, I implement a readable pair of put_sg_io_hdr() /get_sg_io_hdr()
helper functions that can be used for both compat and native mode,
and then I call this from both drivers.

For the iovec handling, there is already a compat_import_iovec() function
that can simply be called in place of import_iovec().

To avoid having to pass the compat/native state through multiple
indirections, I mark the SG_IO command itself as compatible in
fs/compat_ioctl.c and use in_compat_syscall() to figure out where
we are called from.

As a side-effect of this, the sg.c driver now also accepts the 32-bit
sg_io_hdr format in compat mode using the read/write interface, not
just ioctl. This should improve compatiblity with old 32-bit binaries,
but it would break if any application intentionally passes the 64-bit
data structure in compat mode here.

This patch does not change any functionality. New functionality will

Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they
already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter.

NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast()
arguments to ensure that callers were converted. This breaks the current
GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final
parameter. So the suggestion was rejected.

iov_iter: optimize page_copy_sane()

Avoid cache line miss dereferencing struct page if we can.

page_copy_sane() mostly deals with order-0 pages.

Extra cache line miss is visible on TCP recvmsg() calls dealing
with GRO packets (typically 45 page frags are attached to one skb).

Bringing the 45 struct pages into cpu cache while copying the data
is not free, since the freeing of the skb (and associated
page frags put_page()) can happen after cache lines have been evicted.

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)

- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

iov_iter: introduce hash_and_copy_to_iter helper

Allow consumers that want to use iov iterator helpers and also update
a predefined hash calculation online when copying data. This is useful
when copying incoming network buffers to a local iterator and calculate
a digest on the incoming stream. nvme-tcp host driver that will be
introduced in following patches is the first consumer via
skb_copy_and_hash_datagram_iter.

iov_iter: pass void csum pointer to csum_and_copy_to_iter

The single caller to csum_and_copy_to_iter is skb_copy_and_csum_datagram
and we are trying to unite its logic with skb_copy_datagram_iter by passing
a callback to the copy function that we want to apply. Thus, we need
to make the checksum pointer private to the function.
