rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinking Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches both tables if needed. Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems to become an atomic counter.

rhashtable: use bit_spin_locks to protect hash bucket. This patch changes rhashtables to use a bit_spin_lock on BIT(1) of the bucket pointer to lock the hash chain for that bucket. The benefits of a bit spin_lock are: - no need to allocate a separate array of locks. - no need to have a configuration option to guide the choice of the size of this array - locking cost is often a single test-and-set in a cache line that will have to be loaded anyway. When inserting at, or removing from, the head of the chain, the unlock is free - writing the new address in the bucket head implicitly clears the lock bit. For __rhashtable_insert_fast() we ensure this always happens when adding a new key. - even when lockings costs 2 updates (lock and unlock), they are in a cacheline that needs to be read anyway. The cost of using a bit spin_lock is a little bit of code complexity, which I think is quite manageable. Bit spin_locks are sometimes inappropriate because they are not fair - if multiple CPUs repeatedly contend of the same lock, one CPU can easily be starved. This is not a credible situation with rhashtable. Multiple CPUs may want to repeatedly add or remove objects, but they will typically do so at different buckets, so they will attempt to acquire different locks. As we have more bit-locks than we previously had spinlocks (by at least a factor of two) we can expect slightly less contention to go with the slightly better cache behavior and reduced memory consumption. To enhance type checking, a new struct is introduced to represent the pointer plus lock-bit that is stored in the bucket-table. This is "struct rhash_lock_head" and is empty. A pointer to this needs to be cast to either an unsigned lock, or a "struct rhash_head *" to be useful. Variables of this type are most often called "bkt". Previously "pprev" would sometimes point to a bucket, and sometimes a ->next pointer in an rhash_head. As these are now different types, pprev is NULL when it would have pointed to the bucket. In that case, 'blk' is used, together with correct locking protocol. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinking Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table.

rhashtable: Add rhlist interface The insecure_elasticity setting is an ugly wart brought out by users who need to insert duplicate objects (that is, distinct objects with identical keys) into the same table. In fact, those users have a much bigger problem. Once those duplicate objects are inserted, they don't have an interface to find them (unless you count the walker interface which walks over the entire table). Some users have resorted to doing a manual walk over the hash table which is of course broken because they don't handle the potential existence of multiple hash tables. The result is that they will break sporadically when they encounter a hash table resize/rehash. This patch provides a way out for those users, at the expense of an extra pointer per object. Essentially each object is now a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is concerned. To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head into your objects instead of struct rhash_head. While the hash table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct rhltable instead of struct rhashtable. All the existing interfaces have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker. One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential user of it does not need duplicate objects. Should anyone need this it shouldn't be too hard to add.

Essentially each object is now a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is concerned.

rhashtable: use bit_spin_locks to protect hash bucket. This patch changes rhashtables to use a bit_spin_lock on BIT(1) of the bucket pointer to lock the hash chain for that bucket. The benefits of a bit spin_lock are: - no need to allocate a separate array of locks. - no need to have a configuration option to guide the choice of the size of this array - locking cost is often a single test-and-set in a cache line that will have to be loaded anyway. When inserting at, or removing from, the head of the chain, the unlock is free - writing the new address in the bucket head implicitly clears the lock bit. For __rhashtable_insert_fast() we ensure this always happens when adding a new key. - even when lockings costs 2 updates (lock and unlock), they are in a cacheline that needs to be read anyway. The cost of using a bit spin_lock is a little bit of code complexity, which I think is quite manageable. Bit spin_locks are sometimes inappropriate because they are not fair - if multiple CPUs repeatedly contend of the same lock, one CPU can easily be starved. This is not a credible situation with rhashtable. Multiple CPUs may want to repeatedly add or remove objects, but they will typically do so at different buckets, so they will attempt to acquire different locks. As we have more bit-locks than we previously had spinlocks (by at least a factor of two) we can expect slightly less contention to go with the slightly better cache behavior and reduced memory consumption. To enhance type checking, a new struct is introduced to represent the pointer plus lock-bit that is stored in the bucket-table. This is "struct rhash_lock_head" and is empty. A pointer to this needs to be cast to either an unsigned lock, or a "struct rhash_head *" to be useful. Variables of this type are most often called "bkt". Previously "pprev" would sometimes point to a bucket, and sometimes a ->next pointer in an rhash_head. As these are now different types, pprev is NULL when it would have pointed to the bucket. In that case, 'blk' is used, together with correct locking protocol. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Essentially each object is now a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is concerned. To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head into your objects instead of struct rhash_head. While the hash table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct rhltable instead of struct rhashtable. All the existing interfaces have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker. One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential user of it does not need duplicate objects. Should anyone need this it shouldn't be too hard to add.

rhashtable: use bit_spin_locks to protect hash bucket. This patch changes rhashtables to use a bit_spin_lock on BIT(1) of the bucket pointer to lock the hash chain for that bucket. The benefits of a bit spin_lock are: - no need to allocate a separate array of locks. - no need to have a configuration option to guide the choice of the size of this array - locking cost is often a single test-and-set in a cache line that will have to be loaded anyway. When inserting at, or removing from, the head of the chain, the unlock is free - writing the new address in the bucket head implicitly clears the lock bit. For __rhashtable_insert_fast() we ensure this always happens when adding a new key. - even when lockings costs 2 updates (lock and unlock), they are in a cacheline that needs to be read anyway. The cost of using a bit spin_lock is a little bit of code complexity, which I think is quite manageable. Bit spin_locks are sometimes inappropriate because they are not fair - if multiple CPUs repeatedly contend of the same lock, one CPU can easily be starved. This is not a credible situation with rhashtable. Multiple CPUs may want to repeatedly add or remove objects, but they will typically do so at different buckets, so they will attempt to acquire different locks. As we have more bit-locks than we previously had spinlocks (by at least a factor of two) we can expect slightly less contention to go with the slightly better cache behavior and reduced memory consumption. To enhance type checking, a new struct is introduced to represent the pointer plus lock-bit that is stored in the bucket-table. This is "struct rhash_lock_head" and is empty. A pointer to this needs to be cast to either an unsigned lock, or a "struct rhash_head *" to be useful. Variables of this type are most often called "bkt". Previously "pprev" would sometimes point to a bucket, and sometimes a ->next pointer in an rhash_head. As these are now different types, pprev is NULL when it would have pointed to the bucket. In that case, 'blk' is used, together with correct locking protocol. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

rhashtable: Bounce deferred worker kick through irq_work Inserts past 75% load call schedule_work(&ht->run_work) to kick an async resize. If a caller holds a raw spinlock (e.g. an insecure_elasticity user), schedule_work() under that lock records caller_lock -> pool->lock -> pi_lock -> rq->__lock A cycle forms if any of these locks is acquired in the reverse direction elsewhere. sched_ext, the only current insecure_elasticity user, hits this: it holds scx_sched_lock across rhashtable inserts of sub-schedulers, while scx_bypass() takes rq->__lock -> scx_sched_lock. Exercising the resize path produces: Chain exists of: &pool->lock --> &rq->__lock --> scx_sched_lock Bounce the kick from the insert paths through irq_work so schedule_work() runs from hard IRQ context with the caller's lock no longer held. rht_deferred_worker()'s self-rearm on error stays on schedule_work(&ht->run_work) - the worker runs in process context with no caller lock held, and keeping the self-requeue on @run_work lets cancel_work_sync() in rhashtable_free_and_destroy() drain it. v3: Keep rht_deferred_worker()'s self-rearm on schedule_work(&run_work). Routing it through irq_work in v2 broke cancel_work_sync()'s self-requeue handling - an irq_work queued after irq_work_sync() returned but while cancel_work_sync() was still waiting could fire post-teardown. v2: Bounce unconditionally instead of gating on insecure_elasticity, as suggested by Herbert.

rhashtable: clear stale iter->p on table restart rhashtable_walk_start_check() has two restart paths when resuming a walk. When iter->walker.tbl is valid, it re-validates iter->p against the table and sets iter->p = NULL if the object is gone. When iter->walker.tbl is NULL (table was freed during resize), it resets slot and skip but forgets to clear iter->p. rhashtable_walk_next() then dereferences the stale iter->p, reading freed memory. This is a use-after-free. Any caller that does multi-fragment rhashtable walks across walk_stop/walk_start boundaries is affected.

The previously-recorded ht->mutex -> fs_reclaim edge comes from rht_deferred_worker -> rhashtable_rehash_alloc -> bucket_table_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) -> __kvmalloc_node -> might_alloc -> fs_reclaim.

Whether or not that recording happened on the same simple_xattrs ht that is now being destroyed, the predicted deadlock cannot occur: rhashtable_free_and_destroy() does cancel_work_sync(&ht->run_work) before taking ht->mutex, so the deferred worker cannot be running on the instance being torn down. If the recording was on a different rhashtable instance, the two ht->mutex acquisitions are on distinct mutex objects and cannot deadlock either. Lockdep flags a cycle regardless because mutex_init(&ht->mutex) lives on a single source line in rhashtable_init_noprof(), so every ht->mutex in the kernel shares one static lockdep class. Lockdep matches by class, not by instance, and collapses all of these into one node. Lift the lockdep key out of rhashtable_init_noprof() and into the caller. The user-visible rhashtable_init_noprof() / rhltable_init_noprof() identifiers become macros that declare a per-call-site static lock_class_key.

rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinking Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches both tables if needed. Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems to become an atomic counter.

rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinking Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches both tables if needed. Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems to become an atomic counter.

rhashtable: Bounce deferred worker kick through irq_work Inserts past 75% load call schedule_work(&ht->run_work) to kick an async resize. If a caller holds a raw spinlock (e.g. an insecure_elasticity user), schedule_work() under that lock records caller_lock -> pool->lock -> pi_lock -> rq->__lock A cycle forms if any of these locks is acquired in the reverse direction elsewhere. sched_ext, the only current insecure_elasticity user, hits this: it holds scx_sched_lock across rhashtable inserts of sub-schedulers, while scx_bypass() takes rq->__lock -> scx_sched_lock. Exercising the resize path produces: Chain exists of: &pool->lock --> &rq->__lock --> scx_sched_lock Bounce the kick from the insert paths through irq_work so schedule_work() runs from hard IRQ context with the caller's lock no longer held. rht_deferred_worker()'s self-rearm on error stays on schedule_work(&ht->run_work) - the worker runs in process context with no caller lock held, and keeping the self-requeue on @run_work lets cancel_work_sync() in rhashtable_free_and_destroy() drain it. v3: Keep rht_deferred_worker()'s self-rearm on schedule_work(&run_work). Routing it through irq_work in v2 broke cancel_work_sync()'s self-requeue handling - an irq_work queued after irq_work_sync() returned but while cancel_work_sync() was still waiting could fire post-teardown. v2: Bounce unconditionally instead of gating on insecure_elasticity, as suggested by Herbert.

rhashtable: Add rhlist interface The insecure_elasticity setting is an ugly wart brought out by users who need to insert duplicate objects (that is, distinct objects with identical keys) into the same table. In fact, those users have a much bigger problem. Once those duplicate objects are inserted, they don't have an interface to find them (unless you count the walker interface which walks over the entire table). Some users have resorted to doing a manual walk over the hash table which is of course broken because they don't handle the potential existence of multiple hash tables. The result is that they will break sporadically when they encounter a hash table resize/rehash. This patch provides a way out for those users, at the expense of an extra pointer per object. Essentially each object is now a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is concerned. To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head into your objects instead of struct rhash_head. While the hash table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct rhltable instead of struct rhashtable. All the existing interfaces have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker. One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential user of it does not need duplicate objects. Should anyone need this it shouldn't be too hard to add.

rhashtable: drop ht->mutex in rhashtable_free_and_destroy() rhashtable_free_and_destroy() is a single-shot teardown routine: cancel_work_sync() has already quiesced the deferred rehash worker, and the function's documented contract requires the caller to guarantee no other concurrent access to the rhashtable. Under those conditions ht->mutex is not protecting anything -- taking it is a leftover from the original teardown path. That leftover is actively harmful: it closes a circular lock-class dependency with fs_reclaim. The deferred rehash worker takes ht->mutex and then allocates GFP_KERNEL memory in bucket_table_alloc(), establishing &ht->mutex -> fs_reclaim After commit b32c4a213698 ("xattr: add rhashtable-based simple_xattr infrastructure") introduced simple_xattr_ht_free(), which calls rhashtable_free_and_destroy(), the simple_xattrs teardown became reachable from evict() under the dcache shrinker. The subsequent per-subsystem adaptations made the reverse edge concrete in three independent code paths: * commit 52b364fed6e1 ("shmem: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation") * commit 5bd97f5c5f24 ("kernfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation") * commit 50704c391fbf ("pidfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs") Any of the three closes the cycle fs_reclaim -> &ht->mutex which lockdep reports as follows. This particular splat was observed organically on a workstation kernel built from vfs-7.1-rc1.xattr at ~35h uptime under normal mixed workload, with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y.

Once reported, lockdep disables itself for the remainder of the boot, masking any subsequent locking bugs. Drop the mutex. After cancel_work_sync() the rehash worker is quiesced and, per this function's contract, no other concurrent access is possible; the tables are therefore owned exclusively by this function and can be walked without any lock held. Switch the table walks from rht_dereference() (which requires ht->mutex to be held under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU) to rcu_dereference_raw(), which has no lockdep annotation. rht_ptr_exclusive() already uses rcu_dereference_protected(p, 1) and needs no change. This is the only place in lib/rhashtable.c where &ht->mutex is acquired from a path reachable under fs_reclaim; the deferred worker is the only other site and it is the forward edge. Removing the acquisition here therefore eliminates the class cycle for all three subsystems that use simple_xattrs, not just the one in the splat above. No locking-semantics change is introduced for correct users; incorrect users would already be racing with rehash worker completion regardless of the mutex. Synthetic reproduction of the splat within a few-minute window was unsuccessful across several attempts (tmpfs and kernfs zombies via cgroupfs with open-fd-through-rmdir, with and without swap, up to ~60k reclaim-path executions of simple_xattr_ht_free() in a single run), consistent with the rare coincidence-of-edges profile of the bug: the forward edge is already registered in /proc/lockdep on any idle system via rht_deferred_worker, but the reverse edge requires evict() to complete kernfs_put()'s final release inside the fs_reclaim critical section, which in my attempts was ordered against rather than interleaved with the worker.

rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinking Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches both tables if needed. Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems to become an atomic counter.

rhashtable: Bounce deferred worker kick through irq_work Inserts past 75% load call schedule_work(&ht->run_work) to kick an async resize. If a caller holds a raw spinlock (e.g. an insecure_elasticity user), schedule_work() under that lock records caller_lock -> pool->lock -> pi_lock -> rq->__lock A cycle forms if any of these locks is acquired in the reverse direction elsewhere. sched_ext, the only current insecure_elasticity user, hits this: it holds scx_sched_lock across rhashtable inserts of sub-schedulers, while scx_bypass() takes rq->__lock -> scx_sched_lock. Exercising the resize path produces: Chain exists of: &pool->lock --> &rq->__lock --> scx_sched_lock Bounce the kick from the insert paths through irq_work so schedule_work() runs from hard IRQ context with the caller's lock no longer held. rht_deferred_worker()'s self-rearm on error stays on schedule_work(&ht->run_work) - the worker runs in process context with no caller lock held, and keeping the self-requeue on @run_work lets cancel_work_sync() in rhashtable_free_and_destroy() drain it. v3: Keep rht_deferred_worker()'s self-rearm on schedule_work(&run_work). Routing it through irq_work in v2 broke cancel_work_sync()'s self-requeue handling - an irq_work queued after irq_work_sync() returned but while cancel_work_sync() was still waiting could fire post-teardown. v2: Bounce unconditionally instead of gating on insecure_elasticity, as suggested by Herbert.

rhashtable: drop ht->mutex in rhashtable_free_and_destroy() rhashtable_free_and_destroy() is a single-shot teardown routine: cancel_work_sync() has already quiesced the deferred rehash worker, and the function's documented contract requires the caller to guarantee no other concurrent access to the rhashtable. Under those conditions ht->mutex is not protecting anything -- taking it is a leftover from the original teardown path. That leftover is actively harmful: it closes a circular lock-class dependency with fs_reclaim. The deferred rehash worker takes ht->mutex and then allocates GFP_KERNEL memory in bucket_table_alloc(), establishing &ht->mutex -> fs_reclaim After commit b32c4a213698 ("xattr: add rhashtable-based simple_xattr infrastructure") introduced simple_xattr_ht_free(), which calls rhashtable_free_and_destroy(), the simple_xattrs teardown became reachable from evict() under the dcache shrinker. The subsequent per-subsystem adaptations made the reverse edge concrete in three independent code paths: * commit 52b364fed6e1 ("shmem: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation") * commit 5bd97f5c5f24 ("kernfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation") * commit 50704c391fbf ("pidfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs") Any of the three closes the cycle fs_reclaim -> &ht->mutex which lockdep reports as follows.

rhashtable: drop ht->mutex in rhashtable_free_and_destroy() rhashtable_free_and_destroy() is a single-shot teardown routine: cancel_work_sync() has already quiesced the deferred rehash worker, and the function's documented contract requires the caller to guarantee no other concurrent access to the rhashtable. Under those conditions ht->mutex is not protecting anything -- taking it is a leftover from the original teardown path. That leftover is actively harmful: it closes a circular lock-class dependency with fs_reclaim. The deferred rehash worker takes ht->mutex and then allocates GFP_KERNEL memory in bucket_table_alloc(), establishing &ht->mutex -> fs_reclaim After commit b32c4a213698 ("xattr: add rhashtable-based simple_xattr infrastructure") introduced simple_xattr_ht_free(), which calls rhashtable_free_and_destroy(), the simple_xattrs teardown became reachable from evict() under the dcache shrinker. The subsequent per-subsystem adaptations made the reverse edge concrete in three independent code paths: * commit 52b364fed6e1 ("shmem: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation") * commit 5bd97f5c5f24 ("kernfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation") * commit 50704c391fbf ("pidfs: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs") Any of the three closes the cycle fs_reclaim -> &ht->mutex which lockdep reports as follows.

rhashtable: Add rhlist interface The insecure_elasticity setting is an ugly wart brought out by users who need to insert duplicate objects (that is, distinct objects with identical keys) into the same table. In fact, those users have a much bigger problem. Once those duplicate objects are inserted, they don't have an interface to find them (unless you count the walker interface which walks over the entire table). Some users have resorted to doing a manual walk over the hash table which is of course broken because they don't handle the potential existence of multiple hash tables. The result is that they will break sporadically when they encounter a hash table resize/rehash. This patch provides a way out for those users, at the expense of an extra pointer per object. Essentially each object is now a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is concerned. To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head into your objects instead of struct rhash_head. While the hash table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct rhltable instead of struct rhashtable. All the existing interfaces have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker. One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential user of it does not need duplicate objects. Should anyone need this it shouldn't be too hard to add.
