[PATCH net-next] xen-netback: fix xenvif_count_skb_slots()

[Paul Durrant]

Commit 4f0581d25827d5e864bcf07b05d73d0d12a20a5c introduced an error into
xenvif_count_skb_slots() for skbs with a linear area spanning a page
boundary. The alignment of skb->data needs to be taken into account, not
just the head length. This patch fixes the issue by dry-running the code
from xenvif_gop_skb() (and adjusting the comment above the function to note
that).

The comment is possibly correct with modified ring packing but the problem is that by reducing that count netback now tries to handle more skbs than it has grant copy slots for. Maybe it would be more appropriate to simply revert 4f0581d25827d5e864bcf07b05d73d0d12a20a5c. I see no problem before that patch was applied.

If 4f0581d2582 is causing the skb->data to be fully packed into a
minimal number of slots then the simple DIV_ROUND_UP(skb_headlen(skb))
is correct.

I think this change will miscount in the number of slots,
over-estimating the count which I think will eventually cause netback to
think the ring has no space when it has some.

Is the problem here not the miscounting of slots but running out of
space in the grant table op array because we know use more copy ops?

I didn't think there was any real merit in the problematic commit (or at
least there was no evidence that it was better) so I would suggest just
reverting it instead of trying to fix it up.

If we do want to change how netback fills the ring then netback needs
some redesign (i.e., change it so it doesn't have to this counting in
advance) to make it much less fragile to changes in this area.

Essentially yes. Netback is built on the assumption of no more than two grant copies per ring slot.

I'd be happy with a reversion.

Yes, that would be much better.

To be clear; I believe that, with the packing change, a third grant copy may be used for the initial slot and that is why we blow the array.

OK, thanks for the explanation. I'm fine with reverting the problematic
changeset as that part of code is quite fragile now. Looking at the git
history we've tripped over this many times, sigh.

Essentially yes. Netback is built on the assumption of no more than two grant copies per ring slot.

If I'm not mistaken the change in commit 4f0581d2 is correct because we
changed the way that the ring is packed. Now you seem to fall back to
the original scheme (or something in between without reverting later
other changes in that commit).

Do you have instruction to reproduce the bug? Can you paste some
detailed oops message?

It's not possible to use a single grant copy to copy to even a 2-byte linear area that spans a page boundary so you have to take into account the alignment of skb->data. How the ring is packed is not relevant.

I don't have the message to hand, but it's this BUG_ON that I hit:

	BUG_ON(npo.copy_prod > ARRAY_SIZE(vif->grant_copy_op));

I.e. we blow the grant copy op array.

There seems to be a lot of back and forth about what is the most
desirable way forward wrt. this commit and another similar one.

Please advise.

Lets revert 4f0581d25827d5e864bcf07b05d73d0d12a20a5c and see about
making this stuff less fragile in the future.

Lets revert 4f0581d25827d5e864bcf07b05d73d0d12a20a5c and see about
making this stuff less fragile in the future.

Thanks,

There seems to be a lot of back and forth about what is the most
desirable way forward wrt. this commit and another similar one.

Please advise.

[PATCH net-next] xen-netback: fix xenvif_count_skb_slots()

[Paul Durrant]

Commit 4f0581d25827d5e864bcf07b05d73d0d12a20a5c introduced an error into
xenvif_count_skb_slots() for skbs with a linear area spanning a page
boundary. The alignment of skb->data needs to be taken into account, not
just the head length. This patch fixes the issue by dry-running the code
from xenvif_gop_skb() (and adjusting the comment above the function to note
that).
