The second argument was only used by the USB gadget code, yet everyone
pays the overhead of passing a zero to be passed into aio, where it
ends up being part of the aio res2 value.

Now that everybody is passing in zero, kill off the extra argument.

The polling support in the legacy direct-io support is a little crufty.
It already doesn't support the asynchronous polling needed for io_uring
polling, and is hard to adopt to upcoming changes in the polling
interfaces.  Given that all the major file systems already use the iomap
direct I/O code, just drop the polling support.

I encountered a hung task issue, but not a performance one.  I run DIO
on a device (need lba continuous, for example open channel ssd), maybe
hungtask in below case:

  DIO:						Checkpoint:
  get addr A(at boundary), merge into BIO,
  no submit because boundary missing
						flush dirty data(get addr A+1), wait IO(A+1)
						writeback timeout, because DIO(A) didn't submit
  get addr A+2 fail, because checkpoint is doing

dio_send_cur_page() may clear sdio-&gt;boundary, so prevent it from missing
a boundary.

It's often inconvenient to use BIO_MAX_PAGES due to min() requiring the
sign to be the same.  Introduce bio_max_segs() and change BIO_MAX_PAGES to
be unsigned to make it easier for the users.

<title>block/psi: remove PSI annotations from direct IO</title>

Direct IO does not operate on the current working set of pages managed
by the kernel, so it should not be accounted as memory stall to PSI
infrastructure.

The block layer and iomap direct IO use bio_iov_iter_get_pages()
to build bios, and they are the only users of it, so to avoid PSI
tracking for them clear out BIO_WORKINGSET flag. Do same for
dio_bio_submit() because fs/direct_io constructs bios by hand directly
calling bio_add_page().

<id>41b21af388f94baf7433d4e7845703c7275251de</id>
<content type='text'>
Prior to commit 9fe55eea7e4b ("Fix race when checking i_size on direct
i/o read"), an unaligned direct read past end of file would trigger EOF,
since generic_file_aio_read detected this read-at-EOF condition and
skipped the direct IO read entirely, returning 0. After that change, the
read now reaches dio_generic, which detects the misalignment and returns
EINVAL.

This consolidates the generic direct-io to follow the same behavior of
filesystems.  Apparently, this fix will only affect ocfs2 since other
filesystems do this verification before calling do_blockdev_direct_IO,
with the exception of f2fs, which has the same bug, but is fixed in the
next patch.

it can be verified by a read loop on a file that does a partial read
before EOF (On file that doesn't end at an aligned address).  The
following code fails on an unaligned file on filesystems without
prior validation without this patch, but not on btrfs, ext4, and xfs.

  while (done &lt; total) {
    ssize_t delta = pread(fd, buf + done, total - done, off + done);
    if (!delta)
      break;
    ...
  }

Fix this regression by moving the misalignment check to after the EOF
check added by commit 74cedf9b6c60 ("direct-io: Fix negative return from
dio read beyond eof").

Based on a patch by Jamie Liu.

prior validation without this patch, but not on btrfs, ext4, and xfs.

  while (done &lt; total) {
    ssize_t delta = pread(fd, buf + done, total - done, off + done);
    if (!delta)
      break;
    ...
  }

Fix this regression by moving the misalignment check to after the EOF
check added by commit 74cedf9b6c60 ("direct-io: Fix negative return from
dio read beyond eof").

Based on a patch by Jamie Liu.
