This change adds eBPF iterator for buffers registered in io_uring ctx. It gives access to the ctx, the index of the registered buffer, and a pointer to the io_uring_ubuf itself. This allows the iterator to save info related to buffers added to an io_uring instance, that isn't easy to export using the fdinfo interface (like exact struct page composing the registered buffer). The primary usecase this is enabling is checkpoint/restore support. Note that we need to use mutex_trylock when the file is read from, in seq_start functions, as the order of lock taken is opposite of what it would be when io_uring operation reads the same file. We take seq_file->lock, then ctx->uring_lock, while io_uring would first take ctx->uring_lock and then seq_file->lock for the same ctx. This can lead to a deadlock scenario described below: CPU 0 CPU 1 vfs_read mutex_lock(&seq_file->lock) io_read mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock) mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock) # switched to mutex_trylock mutex_lock(&seq_file->lock)It is not clear which mutex_lock switched to mutex_trylock.
The one in vfs_read.
From below example, it looks like &ctx->uring_lock. But if this is the case, we could have deadlock, right?
Sorry, I will make the commit message clearer in the next version. The sequence on CPU 0 is for normal read(2) on iterator. For CPU 1, it is an io_uring instance trying to do same on iterator attached to itself. So CPU 0 does sys_read vfs_read bpf_seq_read mutex_lock(&seq_file->lock) # A io_uring_buf_seq_start mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock) # B and CPU 1 does io_uring_enter mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock) # B io_read bpf_seq_read mutex_lock(&seq_file->lock) # A ... Since the order of locks is opposite, it can deadlock. So I switched the mutex_lock in io_uring_buf_seq_start to trylock, so it can return an error for this case, then it will release seq_file->lock and CPU 1 will make progress. The second problem without use of trylock is described below (for same case of io_uring reading from iterator attached to itself). Let me know if I missed something.

The trylock also protects the case where io_uring tries to read from iterator attached to itself (same ctx), where the order of locks would be: io_uring_enter mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock) <-----------. io_read \ seq_read \ mutex_lock(&seq_file->lock) / mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock) # deadlock-` In both these cases (recursive read and contended uring_lock), -EDEADLK is returned to userspace. In the future, this iterator will be extended to directly support iteration of bvec Flexible Array Member, so that when there is no corresponding VMA that maps to the registered buffer (e.g. if VMA is destroyed after pinning pages), we are able to reconstruct the registration on restore by dumping the page contents and then replaying them into a temporary mapping used for registration later. All this is out of scope for the current series however, but builds upon this iterator.

Ack, will do.

Ack, but some questions: What should it have? e.g. it easy to go from map_id to map fd if one wants access to the map attached to the iterator, but not sure how one can obtain more information about target fd from io_uring or epoll iterators. Should I delegate to their show_fdinfo and dump using that? The type/target is already available in link_info, not sure what other useful information can be added there, which allows obtaining the io_uring/epoll fd.

Note that below bpf_iter_link_info in uapi/linux/bpf.h, map_fd and io_uring_fd is also an union.
So the reason I didn't use a union was the link->aux.map check in bpf_iter.c::__get_seq_info. Even if we switch to union bpf_iter_aux_info, it needs some way to determine whether link is for map type, so maybe a string comparison there? Leaving it out of union felt cleaner, also I move both io_ring_ctx and eventpoll file into a union in later patch.
