ARC: Drop different size headers for crypto
To reduce memory usage ZFS crypto allocated bigger by 56 bytes ARC headers only when specific block was encrypted on disk. It was a nice optimization, except in some cases the code reallocated them on fly, that invalidated header pointers from the buffers. Since the buffers use different locking, it created number of races, that were originally covered (at least partially) by b_evict_lock, used also to protection evictions. But it has gone as part of openzfs#14340. As result, as was found in openzfs#15293, arc_hdr_realloc_crypt() ended up unprotected and causing use-after-free. Instead of introducing some even more elaborate locking, this patch just drops the difference between normal and protected headers. It cost us additional 56 bytes per header, but with couple patches saving 24 bytes, the net growth is only 32 bytes with total header size of 232 bytes on FreeBSD, that IMHO is acceptable price for simplicity. Additional locking would also end up consuming space, time or both. Reviewe-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Alexander Motin <[email protected]> Sponsored by: iXsystems, Inc.
