xen/9p: use alloc/free_pages_exact()

2022-03-11T11:42:09Z

Commit 5cadd4bb1d7fc9ab201ac14620d1a478357e4ebd upstream. Instead of __get_free_pages() and free_pages() use alloc_pages_exact() and free_pages_exact(). This is in preparation of a change of gnttab_end_foreign_access() which will prohibit use of high-order pages. By using the local variable "order" instead of ring->intf->ring_order in the error path of xen_9pfs_front_alloc_dataring() another bug is fixed, as the error path can be entered before ring->intf->ring_order is being set. By using alloc_pages_exact() the size in bytes is specified for the allocation, which fixes another bug for the case of order < (PAGE_SHIFT - XEN_PAGE_SHIFT). This is part of CVE-2022-23041 / XSA-396. Reported-by: Simon Gaiser Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross Reviewed-by: Jan Beulich Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

9p: fix a bunch of checkpatch warnings

2021-11-04T12:04:25Z

Sohaib Mohamed started a serie of tiny and incomplete checkpatch fixes but seemingly stopped halfway -- take over and do most of it. This is still missing net/9p/trans* and net/9p/protocol.c for a later time...

net/9p: autoload transport modules

2021-11-03T00:50:35Z

Automatically load transport modules based on the trans= parameter passed to mount. This removes the requirement for the user to know which module to use. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211017134611.4330-1-linux@weissschuh.net Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet

net/9p: increase default msize to 128k

2021-09-04T23:36:44Z

Let's raise the default msize value to 128k. The 'msize' option defines the maximum message size allowed for any message being transmitted (in both directions) between 9p server and 9p client during a 9p session. Currently the default 'msize' is just 8k, which is way too conservative. Such a small 'msize' value has quite a negative performance impact, because individual 9p messages have to be split up far too often into numerous smaller messages to fit into this message size limitation. A default value of just 8k also has a much higher probablity of hitting short-read issues like: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/409 Unfortunately user feedback showed that many 9p users are not aware that this option even exists, nor the negative impact it might have if it is too low.

net/9p: use macro to define default msize

2021-09-04T23:36:44Z

Use a macro to define the default value for the 'msize' option at one place instead of using two separate integer literals.

net/9p: increase tcp max msize to 1MB

2021-09-04T23:35:56Z

Historically TCP has been limited to 64K buffers, but increasing msize provides huge performance benefits especially as latency increase so allow for bigger buffers. Ideally further improvements could change the allocation from the current contiguous chunk in slab (kmem_cache) to some scatter-gather compatible API... Note this only increases the max possible setting, not the default value. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/YTQB5jCbvhmCWzNd@codewreck.org Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet

9p/xen: Fix end of loop tests for list_for_each_entry

2021-07-27T14:01:16Z

This patch addresses the following problems: - priv can never be NULL, so this part of the check is useless - if the loop ran through the whole list, priv->client is invalid and it is more appropriate and sufficient to check for the end of list_for_each_entry loop condition.
