Subject: [PATCH v11 0/8] iov_iter: Improve page extraction (pin or just list)
Hi Al, Christoph,
Here are patches to provide support for extracting pages from an iov_iter
and to use this in the extraction functions in the block layer bio code.
The patches make the following changes:
(1) Add a function, iov_iter_extract_pages() to replace
iov_iter_get_pages*() that gets refs, pins or just lists the pages as
appropriate to the iterator type.
Add a function, iov_iter_extract_will_pin() that will indicate from
the iterator type how the cleanup is to be performed, returning true
if the pages will need unpinning, false otherwise.
(2) Make the bio struct carry a pair of flags to indicate the cleanup
mode. BIO_NO_PAGE_REF is replaced with BIO_PAGE_REFFED (indicating
FOLL_GET was used) and BIO_PAGE_PINNED (indicating FOLL_PIN was used)
is added.
BIO_PAGE_REFFED will go away, but at the moment fs/direct-io.c sets it
and this series does not fully address that file.
(4) Add a function, bio_release_page(), to release a page appropriately to
the cleanup mode indicated by the BIO_PAGE_* flags.
(5) Make the iter-to-bio code use iov_iter_extract_pages() to retain the
pages appropriately and clean them up later.
(6) Fix bio_flagged() so that it doesn't prevent a gcc optimisation.
I've pushed the patches here also:

Changes:
========
ver #11)
- Fix iov_iter_extract_kvec_pages() to include the offset into the page in
the returned starting offset.
- Use __bitwise for the extraction flags
ver #10)
- Fix use of i->kvec in iov_iter_extract_bvec_pages() to be i->bvec.
- Drop bio_set_cleanup_mode(), open coding it instead.
ver #9)
- It's now not permitted to use FOLL_PIN outside of mm/, so:
- Change iov_iter_extract_mode() into iov_iter_extract_will_pin() and
return true/false instead of FOLL_PIN/0.
- Drop of folio_put_unpin() and page_put_unpin() and instead call
unpin_user_page() (and put_page()) directly as necessary.
- Make __bio_release_pages() call bio_release_page() instead of
unpin_user_page() as there's no BIO_* -> FOLL_* translation to do.
- Drop the FOLL_* renumbering patch.
- Change extract_flags to extraction_flags.
ver #8)
- Import Christoph Hellwig's changes.
- Split the conversion-to-extraction patch.
- Drop the extract_flags arg from iov_iter_extract_mode().
- Don't default bios to BIO_PAGE_REFFED, but set explicitly.
- Switch FOLL_PIN and FOLL_GET when renumbering so PIN is at bit 0.
- Switch BIO_PAGE_PINNED and BIO_PAGE_REFFED so PINNED is at bit 0.
- We should always be using FOLL_PIN (not FOLL_GET) for DIO, so adjust the
patches for that.
ver #7)
- For now, drop the parts to pass the I/O direction to iov_iter_*pages*()
as it turned out to be a lot more complicated, with places not setting
IOCB_WRITE when they should, for example.
- Drop all the patches that changed things other then the block layer's
bio handling. The netfslib and cifs changes can go into a separate
patchset.
- Add support for extracting pages from KVEC-type iterators.
- When extracting from BVEC/KVEC, skip over empty vecs at the front.
ver #6)
- Fix write() syscall and co. not setting IOCB_WRITE.
- Added iocb_is_read() and iocb_is_write() to check IOCB_WRITE.
- Use op_is_write() in bio_copy_user_iov().
- Drop the iterator direction checks from smbd_recv().
- Define FOLL_SOURCE_BUF and FOLL_DEST_BUF and pass them in as part of
gup_flags to iov_iter_get/extract_pages*().
- Replace iov_iter_get_pages*2() with iov_iter_get_pages*() and remove.
- Add back the function to indicate the cleanup mode.
- Drop the cleanup_mode return arg to iov_iter_extract_pages().
- Provide a helper to clean up a page.
- Renumbered FOLL_GET and FOLL_PIN and made BIO_PAGE_REFFED/PINNED have
the same numerical values, enforced with an assertion.
- Converted AF_ALG, SCSI vhost, generic DIO, FUSE, splice to pipe, 9P and
NFS.
- Added in the patches to make CIFS do top-to-bottom iterators and use
various of the added extraction functions.
- Added a pair of work-in-progess patches to make sk_buff fragments store
FOLL_GET and FOLL_PIN.
ver #5)
- Replace BIO_NO_PAGE_REF with BIO_PAGE_REFFED and split into own patch.
- Transcribe FOLL_GET/PIN into BIO_PAGE_REFFED/PINNED flags.
- Add patch to allow bio_flagged() to be combined by gcc.
ver #4)
- Drop the patch to move the FOLL_* flags to linux/mm_types.h as they're
no longer referenced by linux/uio.h.
- Add ITER_SOURCE/DEST cleanup patches.
- Make iov_iter/netfslib iter extraction patches use ITER_SOURCE/DEST.
- Allow additional gup_flags to be passed into iov_iter_extract_pages().
- Add struct bio patch.
ver #3)
- Switch to using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL to prevent indirect 3rd-party access
to get/pin_user_pages_fast()[1].
ver #2)
- Rolled the extraction cleanup mode query function into the extraction
function, returning the indication through the argument list.
- Fixed patch 4 (extract to scatterlist) to actually use the new
extraction API.
