fsverity: remove hash page spin lock

The spin lock is not necessary here as it can be replaced with
memory barrier which should be better performance-wise.

When Merkle tree block size differs from page size, in
is_hash_block_verified() two things are modified during check - a
bitmap and PG_checked flag of the page.

Each bit in the bitmap represent verification status of the Merkle
tree blocks. PG_checked flag tells if page was just re-instantiated
or was in pagecache. Both of this states are shared between
verification threads. Page which was re-instantiated can not have
already verified blocks (bit set in bitmap).

The spin lock was used to allow only one thread to modify both of
these states and keep order of operations. The only requirement here
is that PG_Checked is set strictly after bitmap is updated.
This way other threads which see that PG_Checked=1 (page cached)
knows that bitmap is up-to-date. Otherwise, if PG_Checked is set
before bitmap is cleared, other threads can see bit=1 and therefore
will not perform verification of that Merkle tree block.

However, there's still the case when one thread is setting a bit in
verify_data_block() and other thread is clearing it in
is_hash_block_verified(). This can happen if two threads get to
!PageChecked branch and one of the threads is rescheduled before
resetting the bitmap. This is fine as at worst blocks are
re-verified in each thread.

fsverity: simplify handling of errors during initcall

Since CONFIG_FS_VERITY is a bool, not a tristate, fs/verity/ can only be
builtin or absent entirely; it can't be a loadable module. Therefore,
the error code that gets returned from the fsverity_init() initcall is
never used. If any part of the initcall does fail, which should never
happen, the kernel will be left in a bad state.

Following the usual convention for builtin code, just panic the kernel
if any of part of the initcall fails.

fsverity: don't use bio_first_page_all() in fsverity_verify_bio()

bio_first_page_all(bio)->mapping->host is not compatible with large
folios, since the first page of the bio is not necessarily the head page
of the folio, and therefore it might not have the mapping pointer set.

Therefore, move the dereference of ->mapping->host into
verify_data_blocks(), which works with a folio.

(Like the commit that this Fixes, this hasn't actually been tested with
large folios yet, since the filesystems that use fs/verity/ don't
support that yet. But based on code review, I think this is needed.)

fsverity: use shash API instead of ahash API

The "ahash" API, like the other scatterlist-based crypto APIs such as
"skcipher", comes with some well-known limitations. First, it can't
easily be used with vmalloc addresses. Second, the request struct can't
be allocated on the stack. This adds complexity and a possible failure
point that needs to be worked around, e.g. using a mempool.

The only benefit of ahash over "shash" is that ahash is needed to access
traditional memory-to-memory crypto accelerators, i.e. drivers/crypto/.
However, this style of crypto acceleration has largely fallen out of
favor and been superseded by CPU-based acceleration or inline crypto
engines. Also, ahash needs to be used asynchronously to take full
advantage of such hardware, but fs/verity/ has never done this.

On all systems that aren't actually using one of these ahash-only crypto
accelerators, ahash just adds unnecessary overhead as it sits between
the user and the underlying shash algorithms.

Also, XFS is planned to cache fsverity Merkle tree blocks in the
existing XFS buffer cache. As a result, it will be possible for a
single Merkle tree block to be split across discontiguous pages
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230405233753.GU3223426@dread.disaster.area).
This data will need to be hashed. It is easiest to work with a vmapped
address in this case. However, ahash is incompatible with this.

Therefore, let's convert fs/verity/ from ahash to shash. This
simplifies the code, and it should also slightly improve performance for
everyone who wasn't actually using one of these ahash-only crypto
accelerators, i.e. almost everyone (or maybe even everyone)!

fsverity: Remove WQ_UNBOUND from fsverity read workqueue

WQ_UNBOUND causes significant scheduler latency on ARM64/Android. This
is problematic for latency sensitive workloads, like I/O
post-processing.

Removing WQ_UNBOUND gives a 96% reduction in fsverity workqueue related
scheduler latency and improves app cold startup times by ~30ms.
WQ_UNBOUND was also removed from the dm-verity workqueue for the same
reason [1].

This code was tested by running Android app startup benchmarks and
measuring how long the fsverity workqueue spent in the runnable state.

fsverity: support verification with tree block size < PAGE_SIZE

Add support for verifying data from verity files whose Merkle tree block
size is less than the page size. The main use case for this is to allow
a single Merkle tree block size to be used across all systems, so that
only one set of fsverity file digests and signatures is needed.

To do this, eliminate various assumptions that the Merkle tree block
size and the page size are the same:

- Make fsverity_verify_page() a wrapper around a new function
fsverity_verify_blocks() which verifies one or more blocks in a page.

- When a Merkle tree block is needed, get the corresponding page and
only verify and use the needed portion. (The Merkle tree continues to
be read and cached in page-sized chunks; that doesn't need to change.)

- When the Merkle tree block size and page size differ, use a bitmap
fsverity_info::hash_block_verified to keep track of which Merkle tree
blocks have been verified, as PageChecked cannot be used directly.

First, calculate max_ra_pages more efficiently by using the bio size.

Second, calculate the number of readahead pages from the hash page
index, instead of calculating it ahead of time using the data page
index. This ends up being a bit simpler, especially since level 0 is
last in the tree, so we can just limit the readahead to the tree size.

fsverity: stop using PG_error to track error status

As a step towards freeing the PG_error flag for other uses, change ext4
and f2fs to stop using PG_error to track verity errors. Instead, if a
verity error occurs, just mark the whole bio as failed. The coarser
granularity isn't really a problem since it isn't any worse than what
the block layer provides, and errors from a multi-page readahead aren't
reported to applications unless a single-page read fails too.

f2fs supports compression, which makes the f2fs changes a bit more
complicated than desired, but the basic premise still works.

Note: there are still a few uses of PageError in f2fs, but they are on
the write path, so they are unrelated and this patch doesn't touch them.

fs-verity: implement readahead of Merkle tree pages

When fs-verity verifies data pages, currently it reads each Merkle tree
page synchronously using read_mapping_page().

Therefore, when the Merkle tree pages aren't already cached, fs-verity
causes an extra 4 KiB I/O request for every 512 KiB of data (assuming
that the Merkle tree uses SHA-256 and 4 KiB blocks). This results in
more I/O requests and performance loss than is strictly necessary.

Therefore, implement readahead of the Merkle tree pages.

For simplicity, we take advantage of the fact that the kernel already
does readahead of the file's *data*, just like it does for any other
file. Due to this, we don't really need a separate readahead state
(struct file_ra_state) just for the Merkle tree, but rather we just need
to piggy-back on the existing data readahead requests.

We also only really need to bother with the first level of the Merkle
tree, since the usual fan-out factor is 128, so normally over 99% of
Merkle tree I/O requests are for the first level.

Therefore, make fsverity_verify_bio() enable readahead of the first
Merkle tree level, for up to 1/4 the number of pages in the bio, when it
sees that the REQ_RAHEAD flag is set on the bio. The readahead size is
then passed down to ->read_merkle_tree_page() for the filesystem to
(optionally) implement if it sees that the requested page is uncached.

While we're at it, also make build_merkle_tree_level() set the Merkle
tree readahead size, since it's easy to do there.

However, for now don't set the readahead size in fsverity_verify_page(),
since currently it's only used to verify holes on ext4 and f2fs, and it
would need parameters added to know how much to read ahead.

This patch significantly improves fs-verity sequential read performance.
