__bio_for_each_segment() uses the returned struct bio_vec's bv_len field
to advance the struct bvec_iter at the end of each loop iteration. So
it's incorrect to modify it during the loop. Don't assign to bv_len (or
bv_offset, for that matter) in ublk_copy_user_pages().

Handling most of the ublksrv_ctrl_cmd opcodes require locking a mutex,
so ublk_ctrl_uring_cmd() bails out with EAGAIN when called with the
IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK issue flag. However, several opcodes can be handled
without blocking:
- UBLK_CMD_GET_QUEUE_AFFINITY
- UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO
- UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO2
- UBLK_U_CMD_GET_FEATURES
Handle these opcodes synchronously instead of returning EAGAIN so
io_uring doesn't need to issue the command via the worker thread pool.

Refactor auto buffer register code and prepare for supporting batch IO
feature, and the main motivation is to put 'ublk_io' operation code
together, so that per-io lock can be applied for the code block.
The key changes are:
- Rename ublk_auto_buf_reg() as ublk_do_auto_buf_reg()
- Introduce an enum `auto_buf_reg_res` to represent the result of
the buffer registration attempt (FAIL, FALLBACK, OK).
- Split the existing `ublk_do_auto_buf_reg` function into two:
- `__ublk_do_auto_buf_reg`: Performs the actual buffer registration
and returns the `auto_buf_reg_res` status.
- `ublk_do_auto_buf_reg`: A wrapper that calls the internal function
and handles the I/O preparation based on the result.
- Introduce `ublk_prep_auto_buf_reg_io` to encapsulate the logic for
preparing the I/O for completion after buffer registration.
- Pass the `tag` directly to `ublk_auto_buf_reg_fallback` to avoid
recalculating it.
This refactoring makes the control flow clearer and isolates the different
stages of the auto buffer registration process.

Commit b76b840fd9 ("dm: Fix dm-zoned-reclaim zone write pointer
alignment") introduced an indirect call for the callback function of a
report zones executed with blkdev_report_zones(). This is necessary so
that the function disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset() can be called to
refresh a zone write plug zone write pointer offset after a write error.
However, this solution makes following the path of a zone information
harder to understand.
Clean this up by introducing the new blk_report_zones_args structure to
define a zone report callback and its private data and introduce the
helper function disk_report_zone() which calls both
disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset() and the zone report user callback
function for all zones of a zone report. This helper function must be
called by all block device drivers that implement the report zones
block operation in order to correctly report a zone information.
All block device drivers supporting the report_zones block operation are
updated to use this new scheme.

Implement NUMA-friendly memory allocation for ublk driver to improve
performance on multi-socket systems.
This commit includes the following changes:
1. Rename __queues to queues, dropping the __ prefix since the field is
now accessed directly throughout the codebase rather than only through
the ublk_get_queue() helper.
2. Remove the queue_size field from struct ublk_device as it is no longer
needed.
3. Move queue allocation and deallocation into ublk_init_queue() and
ublk_deinit_queue() respectively, improving encapsulation. This
simplifies ublk_init_queues() and ublk_deinit_queues() to just
iterate and call the per-queue functions.
4. Add ublk_get_queue_numa_node() helper function to determine the
appropriate NUMA node for a queue by finding the first CPU mapped
to that queue via tag_set.map[HCTX_TYPE_DEFAULT].mq_map[] and
converting it to a NUMA node using cpu_to_node(). This function is
called internally by ublk_init_queue() to determine the allocation
node.
5. Allocate each queue structure on its local NUMA node using
kvzalloc_node() in ublk_init_queue().
6. Allocate the I/O command buffer on the same NUMA node using
alloc_pages_node().
This reduces memory access latency on multi-socket NUMA systems by
ensuring each queue's data structures are local to the CPUs that
access them.

io_uring task work dispatch makes an indirect call to struct io_kiocb's
io_task_work.func field to allow running arbitrary task work functions.
In the uring_cmd case, this calls io_uring_cmd_work(), which immediately
makes another indirect call to struct io_uring_cmd's task_work_cb field.
Change the uring_cmd task work callbacks to functions whose signatures
match io_req_tw_func_t. Add a function io_uring_cmd_from_tw() to convert
from the task work's struct io_tw_req argument to struct io_uring_cmd *.
Define a constant IO_URING_CMD_TASK_WORK_ISSUE_FLAGS to avoid
manufacturing issue_flags in the uring_cmd task work callbacks. Now
uring_cmd task work dispatch makes a single indirect call to the
uring_cmd implementation's callback. This also allows removing the
task_work_cb field from struct io_uring_cmd, freeing up 8 bytes for
future storage.
Since fuse_uring_send_in_task() now has access to the io_tw_token_t,
check its cancel field directly instead of relying on the
IO_URING_F_TASK_DEAD issue flag.

A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Store ring provided buffers locally for the users, rather than stuff
them into struct io_kiocb.
These types of buffers must always be fully consumed or recycled in
the current context, and leaving them in struct io_kiocb is hence not
a good ideas as that struct has a vastly different life time.
Basically just an architecture cleanup that can help prevent issues
with ring provided buffers in the future.
- Support for mixed CQE sizes in the same ring.
Before this change, a CQ ring either used the default 16b CQEs, or it
was setup with 32b CQE using IORING_SETUP_CQE32. For use cases where
a few 32b CQEs were needed, this caused everything else to use big
CQEs. This is wasteful both in terms of memory usage, but also memory
bandwidth for the posted CQEs.
With IORING_SETUP_CQE_MIXED, applications may use request types that
post both normal 16b and big 32b CQEs on the same ring.
- Add helpers for async data management, to make it harder for opcode
handlers to mess it up.
- Add support for multishot for uring_cmd, which ublk can use. This
helps improve efficiency, by providing a persistent request type that
can trigger multiple CQEs.
- Add initial support for ring feature querying.
We had basic support for probe operations, but the API isn't great.
Rather than expand that, add support for QUERY which is easily
expandable and can cover a lot more cases than the existing probe
support. This will help applications get a better idea of what
operations are supported on a given host.
- zcrx improvements from Pavel:
- Improve refill entry alignment for better caching
- Various cleanups, especially around deduplicating normal
memory vs dmabuf setup.
- Generalisation of the niov size (Patch 12). It's still hard
coded to PAGE_SIZE on init, but will let the user to specify
the rx buffer length on setup.
- Syscall / synchronous bufer return. It'll be used as a slow
fallback path for returning buffers when the refill queue is
full. Useful for tolerating slight queue size misconfiguration
or with inconsistent load.
- Accounting more memory to cgroups.
- Additional independent cleanups that will also be useful for
mutli-area support.

ublk_setup_iod() checks first whether the request is a zoned operation
issued to a device without zoned support and returns BLK_STS_IOERR if
so. However, such a request would already hit the default case in the
subsequent switch statement and fail the ublk_queue_is_zoned() check,
which also results in a return of BLK_STS_IOERR. So remove the redundant
early check for unsupported zone ops.

Commit 79525b51ac ("io_uring: fix nvme's 32b cqes on mixed cq") split
out a separate io_uring_cmd_done32() helper for ->uring_cmd()
implementations that return 32-byte CQEs. The res2 value passed to
io_uring_cmd_done() is now unused because __io_uring_cmd_done() ignores
it when is_cqe32 is passed as false. So drop the parameter from
io_uring_cmd_done() to simplify the callers and clarify that it's not
possible to return an extra value beyond the 32-bit CQE result.

For ublk servers with many ublk queues, accessing the ublk_queue in
ublk_unmap_io() is a frequent cache miss. Pass to __ublk_complete_rq()
whether the ublk server's data buffer needs to be copied to the request.
In the callers __ublk_fail_req() and ublk_ch_uring_cmd_local(), get the
flags from the ublk_device instead, as its flags have just been read.
In ublk_put_req_ref(), pass false since all the features that require

ublk_ch_uring_cmd_local() is a thin wrapper around __ublk_ch_uring_cmd()
that copies the ublksrv_io_cmd from user-mapped memory to the stack
using READ_ONCE(). This ublksrv_io_cmd is passed by pointer to
__ublk_ch_uring_cmd() and __ublk_ch_uring_cmd() is a large function
unlikely to be inlined, so __ublk_ch_uring_cmd() will have to load the
ublksrv_io_cmd fields back from the stack. Inline __ublk_ch_uring_cmd()
into ublk_ch_uring_cmd_local() and load the ublksrv_io_cmd fields into
local variables with READ_ONCE(). This allows the compiler to delay
loading the fields until they are needed and choose whether to store
them in registers or on the stack.

When running test_stress_04.sh, the following warning is triggered:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 135 at drivers/block/ublk_drv.c:1933 ublk_ch_release+0x423/0x4b0 [ublk_drv]
This happens when the daemon is abruptly killed:
- some references may still be held, because registering IO buffer
doesn't grab ublk char device reference
OR
- io->task_registered_buffers won't be cleared because io buffer is
released from non-daemon context
For zero-copy and auto buffer register modes, I/O reference crosses
syscalls, so IO reference may not be dropped naturally when ublk server is
killed abruptly. However, when releasing io_uring context, it is guaranteed
that the reference is dropped finally, see io_sqe_buffers_unregister() from
io_ring_ctx_free().
Fix this by adding ublk_drain_io_references() that:
- Waits for active I/O references dropped in async way by scheduling
work function, for avoiding ublk dev and io_uring file's release
dependency
- Reinitializes io->ref and io->task_registered_buffers to clean state
This ensures the reference count state is clean when ublk_queue_reinit()
is called, preventing the warning and potential use-after-free.

Commit ab03a61c66 ("ublk: have a per-io daemon instead of a per-queue
daemon") allowed each ublk I/O to have an independent daemon task.
However, nr_privileged_daemon is only computed based on whether the last
I/O fetched in each ublk queue has an unprivileged daemon task.
Fix this by checking whether every fetched I/O's daemon is privileged.
Change nr_privileged_daemon from a count of queues to a boolean
indicating whether any I/Os have an unprivileged daemon.

ublk_ch_release currently quiesces the device's request_queue while
setting force_abort/fail_io. This avoids data races by preventing
concurrent reads from the I/O path, but is not strictly needed - at this
point, canceling is already set and guaranteed to be observed by any
concurrently executing I/Os, so they will be handled properly even if
the changes to force_abort/fail_io propagate to the I/O path later.
Remove the quiesce/unquiesce calls from ublk_ch_release. This makes the
writes to force_abort/fail_io concurrent with the reads in the I/O path,
so make the accesses atomic.
Before this change, the call to blk_mq_quiesce_queue was responsible for
most (90%) of the runtime of ublk_ch_release. With that call eliminated,
ublk_ch_release runs much faster. Here is a comparison of the total time
spent in calls to ublk_ch_release when a server handling 128 devices
exits, before and after this change:
before: 1.11s
after: 0.09s
