[PATCH v3 00/12] NFS/RDMA client-side patches for 4.11

[PATCH v3 00/12] NFS/RDMA client-side patches for 4.11

[Chuck Lever]

Hi Anna-

These are bug fixes and add support for RPC-over-RDMA connection
keepalive. The keepalive patches are still waiting for internal
testing resources to confirm they trigger connection loss in the
right circumstances, but my own testing shows they are behaving as
expected and do not introduce instability.

- v4.10-rc bugfixes merged into this series
- Minor improvements to patch descriptions
- Field moved in 12/12 now done in the correct patch


Changes since v1:

[PATCH v3 01/12] xprtrdma: Fix Read chunk padding

[Chuck Lever]

When pad optimization is disabled, rpcrdma_convert_iovs still
does not add explicit XDR round-up padding to a Read chunk.

Commit 677eb17e94ed ("xprtrdma: Fix XDR tail buffer marshalling")
incorrectly short-circuited the test for whether round-up padding
is needed that appears later in rpcrdma_convert_iovs.

However, if this is indeed a regular Read chunk (and not a
Position-Zero Read chunk), the tail iovec _always_ contains the
chunk's padding, and never anything else.

So, it's easy to just skip the tail when padding optimization is
enabled, and add the tail in a subsequent Read chunk segment, if
disabled.

[PATCH v3 02/12] xprtrdma: Per-connection pad optimization

[Chuck Lever]

Pad optimization is changed by echoing into
/proc/sys/sunrpc/rdma_pad_optimize. This is a global setting,
affecting all RPC-over-RDMA connections to all servers.

The marshaling code picks up that value and uses it for decisions
about how to construct each RPC-over-RDMA frame. Having it change
suddenly in mid-operation can result in unexpected failures. And
some servers a client mounts might need chunk round-up, while
others don't.

So instead, copy the pad_optimize setting into each connection's
rpcrdma_ia when the transport is created, and use the copy, which
can't change during the life of the connection, instead.

This also removes a hack: rpcrdma_convert_iovs was using
the remote-invalidation-expected flag to predict when it could leave
out Write chunk padding. This is because the Linux server handles
implicit XDR padding on Write chunks correctly, and only Linux
servers can set the connection's remote-invalidation-expected flag.

It's more sensible to use the pad optimization setting instead.

[PATCH v3 02/12] xprtrdma: Per-connection pad optimization

[Chuck Lever]

Pad optimization is changed by echoing into
/proc/sys/sunrpc/rdma_pad_optimize. This is a global setting,
affecting all RPC-over-RDMA connections to all servers.

The marshaling code picks up that value and uses it for decisions
about how to construct each RPC-over-RDMA frame. Having it change
suddenly in mid-operation can result in unexpected failures. And
some servers a client mounts might need chunk round-up, while
others don't.

So instead, copy the pad_optimize setting into each connection's
rpcrdma_ia when the transport is created, and use the copy, which
can't change during the life of the connection, instead.

This also removes a hack: rpcrdma_convert_iovs was using
the remote-invalidation-expected flag to predict when it could leave
out Write chunk padding. This is because the Linux server handles
implicit XDR padding on Write chunks correctly, and only Linux
servers can set the connection's remote-invalidation-expected flag.

It's more sensible to use the pad optimization setting instead.

[Chuck Lever]

Commit d5440e27d3e5 ("xprtrdma: Enable pad optimization") made the
Linux client omit XDR round-up padding in normal Read and Write
chunks so that the client doesn't have to register and invalidate
3-byte memory regions that contain no real data.

Unfortunately, my cheery 2014 assessment that this optimization "is
supported now by both Linux and Solaris servers" was premature.
We've found bugs in Solaris in this area since commit d5440e27d3e5
("xprtrdma: Enable pad optimization") was merged (SYMLINK is the
main offender).

So for maximum interoperability, I'm disabling this optimization
again. If a CM private message is exchanged when connecting, the
client recognizes that the server is Linux, and enables the
optimization for that connection.

Until now the Solaris server bugs did not impact common operations,
and were thus largely benign. Soon, less capable devices on Linux
NFS/RDMA clients will make use of Read chunks more often, and these
Solaris bugs will prevent interoperation in more cases.

[PATCH v3 03/12] xprtrdma: Disable pad optimization by default

[Chuck Lever]

Commit d5440e27d3e5 ("xprtrdma: Enable pad optimization") made the
Linux client omit XDR round-up padding in normal Read and Write
chunks so that the client doesn't have to register and invalidate
3-byte memory regions that contain no real data.

Unfortunately, my cheery 2014 assessment that this optimization "is
supported now by both Linux and Solaris servers" was premature.
We've found bugs in Solaris in this area since commit d5440e27d3e5

again. If a CM private message is exchanged when connecting, the
client recognizes that the server is Linux, and enables the

[PATCH v3 04/12] xprtrdma: Reduce required number of send SGEs

[Chuck Lever]

The MAX_SEND_SGES check introduced in commit 655fec6987be
("xprtrdma: Use gathered Send for large inline messages") fails
for devices that have a small max_sge.

Instead of checking for a large fixed maximum number of SGEs,
check for a minimum small number. RPC-over-RDMA will switch to
using a Read chunk if an xdr_buf has more pages than can fit in
the device's max_sge limit. This is considerably better than
failing all together to mount the server.

This fix supports devices that have as few as three send SGEs
available.

We no longer need to accommodate an xdr_buf whose pages start at an
offset and cross extra page boundaries. If there are more partial or
whole pages to send than there are available SGEs, the marshaling
logic is now smart enough to use a Read chunk instead of failing.

[PATCH v3 06/12] xprtrdma: Properly recover FRWRs with in-flight FASTREG WRs

[Chuck Lever]

Sriharsha (sriharsha.basavapatna-dY08KVG/lbpWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org) reports an occasional
double DMA unmap of an FRWR MR when a connection is lost. I see one
way this can happen.

When a request requires more than one segment or chunk,
rpcrdma_marshal_req loops, invoking ->frwr_op_map for each segment
(MR) in each chunk. Each call posts a FASTREG Work Request to
register one MR.

Now suppose that the transport connection is lost part-way through
marshaling this request. As part of recovering and resetting that
req, rpcrdma_marshal_req invokes ->frwr_op_unmap_safe, which hands
all the req's registered FRWRs to the MR recovery thread.

But note: FRWR registration is asynchronous. So it's possible that
some of these "already registered" FRWRs are fully registered, and
some are still waiting for their FASTREG WR to complete.

When the connection is lost, the "already registered" frmrs are
marked FRMR_IS_VALID, and the "still waiting" WRs flush. Then
frwr_wc_fastreg marks these frmrs FRMR_FLUSHED_FR.

But thanks to ->frwr_op_unmap_safe, the MR recovery thread is doing
an unreg / alloc_mr, a DMA unmap, and marking each of these frwrs
FRMR_IS_INVALID, at the same time frwr_wc_fastreg might be running.

- If the recovery thread runs last, then the frmr is marked
FRMR_IS_INVALID, and life continues.

- If frwr_wc_fastreg runs last, the frmr is marked FRMR_FLUSHED_FR,
but the recovery thread has already DMA unmapped that MR. When
->frwr_op_map later re-uses this frmr, it sees it is not marked
FRMR_IS_INVALID, and tries to recover it before using it, resulting
in a second DMA unmap of the same MR.

The fix is to guarantee in-flight FASTREG WRs have flushed before MR
recovery runs on those FRWRs. Thus we depend on ro_unmap_safe
(called from xprt_rdma_send_request on retransmit, or from
xprt_rdma_free) to clean up old registrations as needed.

[PATCH v3 06/12] xprtrdma: Properly recover FRWRs with in-flight FASTREG WRs

[Chuck Lever]

Sriharsha (sriharsha.basavapatna@broadcom.com) reports an occasional
double DMA unmap of an FRWR MR when a connection is lost. I see one
way this can happen.

When a request requires more than one segment or chunk,
rpcrdma_marshal_req loops, invoking ->frwr_op_map for each segment
(MR) in each chunk. Each call posts a FASTREG Work Request to
register one MR.

Now suppose that the transport connection is lost part-way through
marshaling this request. As part of recovering and resetting that
req, rpcrdma_marshal_req invokes ->frwr_op_unmap_safe, which hands
all the req's registered FRWRs to the MR recovery thread.

But note: FRWR registration is asynchronous. So it's possible that
some of these "already registered" FRWRs are fully registered, and
some are still waiting for their FASTREG WR to complete.

When the connection is lost, the "already registered" frmrs are
marked FRMR_IS_VALID, and the "still waiting" WRs flush. Then
frwr_wc_fastreg marks these frmrs FRMR_FLUSHED_FR.

But thanks to ->frwr_op_unmap_safe, the MR recovery thread is doing
an unreg / alloc_mr, a DMA unmap, and marking each of these frwrs
FRMR_IS_INVALID, at the same time frwr_wc_fastreg might be running.

- If the recovery thread runs last, then the frmr is marked
FRMR_IS_INVALID, and life continues.

- If frwr_wc_fastreg runs last, the frmr is marked FRMR_FLUSHED_FR,
but the recovery thread has already DMA unmapped that MR. When
->frwr_op_map later re-uses this frmr, it sees it is not marked
FRMR_IS_INVALID, and tries to recover it before using it, resulting
in a second DMA unmap of the same MR.

The fix is to guarantee in-flight FASTREG WRs have flushed before MR
recovery runs on those FRWRs. Thus we depend on ro_unmap_safe
(called from xprt_rdma_send_request on retransmit, or from
xprt_rdma_free) to clean up old registrations as needed.

[PATCH v3 07/12] xprtrdma: Handle stale connection rejection

[Chuck Lever]

A server rejects a connection attempt with STALE_CONNECTION when a
client attempts to connect to a working remote service, but uses a
QPN and GUID that corresponds to an old connection that was
abandoned. This might occur after a client crashes and restarts.

Fix rpcrdma_conn_upcall() to distinguish between a normal rejection
and rejection of stale connection parameters.

As an additional clean-up, remove the code that retries the
connection attempt with different ORD/IRD values. Code audit of
other ULP initiators shows no similar special case handling of
initiator_depth or responder_resources.

[PATCH v3 09/12] sunrpc: Allow xprt->ops->timer method to sleep

[Chuck Lever]

The transport lock is needed to protect the xprt_adjust_cwnd() call
in xs_udp_timer, but it is not necessary for accessing the
rq_reply_bytes_recvd or tk_status fields. It is correct to sublimate
the lock into UDP's xs_udp_timer method, where it is required.

The ->timer method has to take the transport lock if needed, but it
can now sleep safely, or even call back into the RPC scheduler.

This is more a clean-up than a fix, but the "issue" was introduced
by my transport switch patches back in 2005.

Fixes: 46c0ee8bc4ad ("RPC: separate xprt_timer implementations")

[PATCH v3 10/12] sunrpc: Enable calls to rpc_call_null_helper() from other modules

[Chuck Lever]

To help detect unreachable servers, I'd like to emit an RPC ping
from rpcrdma.ko.

authnull_ops is not visible outside the sunrpc.ko module, so fold
the common case into rpc_call_null_helper, and export it, so that
it can be invoked from other kernel modules.

[PATCH v3 10/12] sunrpc: Enable calls to rpc_call_null_helper() from other modules

[Chuck Lever]

To help detect unreachable servers, I'd like to emit an RPC ping
from rpcrdma.ko.

authnull_ops is not visible outside the sunrpc.ko module, so fold
the common case into rpc_call_null_helper, and export it, so that
it can be invoked from other kernel modules.

[PATCH v3 11/12] xprtrdma: Detect unreachable NFS/RDMA servers more reliably

[Chuck Lever]

Current NFS clients rely on connection loss to determine when to
retransmit. In particular, for protocols like NFSv4, clients no
longer rely on RPC timeouts to drive retransmission: NFSv4 servers
are required to terminate a connection when they need a client to
retransmit pending RPCs.

When a server is no longer reachable, either because it has crashed
or because the network path has broken, the server cannot actively
terminate a connection. Thus NFS clients depend on transport-level
keepalive to determine when a connection must be replaced and
pending RPCs retransmitted.

However, RDMA RC connections do not have a native keepalive
mechanism. If an NFS/RDMA server crashes after a client has sent
RPCs successfully (an RC ACK has been received for all OTW RDMA
requests), there is no way for the client to know the connection is
moribund.

In addition, new RDMA requests are subject to the RPC-over-RDMA
credit limit. If the client has consumed all granted credits with
NFS traffic, it is not allowed to send another RDMA request until
the server replies. Thus it has no way to send a true keepalive when
the workload has already consumed all credits with pending RPCs.

To address this, emit an RPC NULL ping when an RPC retransmit
timeout occurs.

The purpose of this ping is to drive traffic on the connection to
force the transport layer to disconnect it if it is no longer
viable. Some RDMA operations are fully offloaded to the HCA, and can
be successful even if the server O/S has crashed. Thus an operation
that requires that the server is responsive is used for the ping.

[PATCH v3 12/12] sunrpc: Allow keepalive ping on a credit-full transport

[Chuck Lever]

Allow RPC-over-RDMA to send NULL pings even when the transport has
hit its credit limit. One RPC-over-RDMA credit is reserved for
operations like keepalive.

For transports that convey NFSv4, it seems like lease renewal would
also be a candidate for using a priority transport slot. I'd like to
see a mechanism better than RPCRDMA_PRIORITY that can ensure only
one priority operation is in use at a time.

[PATCH v3 12/12] sunrpc: Allow keepalive ping on a credit-full transport

[Chuck Lever]

Allow RPC-over-RDMA to send NULL pings even when the transport has
hit its credit limit. One RPC-over-RDMA credit is reserved for
operations like keepalive.

For transports that convey NFSv4, it seems like lease renewal would
also be a candidate for using a priority transport slot. I'd like to
see a mechanism better than RPCRDMA_PRIORITY that can ensure only
one priority operation is in use at a time.

Why not just have the RDMA layer call xprt_reserve_xprt() (and
xprt_release_xprt()) if this flag is set? It seems to me that you will
need some kind of extra congestion control in the RDMA layer anyway
since you only have one reserved credit for these privileged tasks (or
did I miss where that is being gated?).

Thanks for the review.

See RPCRDMA_IA_RSVD_CREDIT in 11/12. It's a hack I'm not
terribly happy with.

So, I think you are suggesting replacing xprtrdma's
->reserve_xprt with something like:

int xprt_rdma_reserve_xprt(xprt, task)
{
      if (RPC_SKIP_CONG(task))
           return xprt_reserve_xprt(xprt, task);
      return xprt_reserve_xprt_cong(xprt, task);
}

and likewise for ->release_xprt ?

What I'd really like to do is have the RPC layer
prevent more than one RPC at a time from using the
extra credit, and somehow ensure that those RPCs
are going to be short-lived (SOFT | SOFTCONN,
maybe).

Thanks for the review.

See RPCRDMA_IA_RSVD_CREDIT in 11/12. It's a hack I'm not
terribly happy with.

So, I think you are suggesting replacing xprtrdma's
->reserve_xprt with something like:

int xprt_rdma_reserve_xprt(xprt, task)
{
      if (RPC_SKIP_CONG(task))
           return xprt_reserve_xprt(xprt, task);
      return xprt_reserve_xprt_cong(xprt, task);
}

and likewise for ->release_xprt ?

What I'd really like to do is have the RPC layer
prevent more than one RPC at a time from using the
extra credit, and somehow ensure that those RPCs
are going to be short-lived (SOFT | SOFTCONN,
maybe).

Right.

Credits are a transport layer thing, though. There is no equivalent in
the non-RDMA world. TCP and UDP should normally both be fine with
transmitting an extra RPC call.

Even timeouts are a transport layer issue; see the patches I put out
this morning in order to reduce the TCP connection timeouts and put
them more in line with the lease period. Something like that makes no
sense in the UDP world (no connections), or even in AF_LOCAL (no
routing), which is why I added the set_connection_timeout() callback.

xprtrdma maps credits to the xprt->cwnd, which UDP also uses.
Agree though, there probably isn't a need for temporarily
superceding the UDP connection window.

I browsed those a couple times, wondering if connection-oriented
RPC-over-RDMA also needs a set_connection_timeout method. Still
studying.

xprtrdma maps credits to the xprt->cwnd, which UDP also uses.
Agree though, there probably isn't a need for temporarily
superceding the UDP connection window.

I browsed those a couple times, wondering if connection-oriented
RPC-over-RDMA also needs a set_connection_timeout method. Still
studying.

This seems to work fine for the normal cases.

I'm confused about how to construct xprt_rdma_release_xprt()
so it never releases a normal RPC task when a SKIP_CONG
task completes and the credit limit is still full.

If it should send a normal task using the reserved credit
and that task hangs too, we're in exactly the position
we wanted to avoid.

My original solution might have had a similar problem,
come to think of it.

This seems to work fine for the normal cases.

I'm confused about how to construct xprt_rdma_release_xprt()
so it never releases a normal RPC task when a SKIP_CONG
task completes and the credit limit is still full.

If it should send a normal task using the reserved credit
and that task hangs too, we're in exactly the position
we wanted to avoid.

My original solution might have had a similar problem,
come to think of it.

That's true... You may need to set up a separate waitqueue that is
reserved for SKIP_CONG tasks. Again, it makes sense to keep that in the
RDMA code.
