[PATCH v3] io_uring: add EPOLLEXCLUSIVE flag for POLL_ADD operation

[Jiufei Xue]

Applications can use this flag to avoid accept thundering herd type
behavior.

[PATCH v3 1/2] io_uring: change the poll events to be 32-bits

[Jiufei Xue]

poll events should be 32-bits to cover EPOLLEXCLUSIVE.

We obviously have the space in there as most other flag members are 32-bits, but
I'd want to double check if we're not changing the ABI here. Is this always
going to be safe, on any platform, regardless of endianess etc?

Double checked, and as I feared, we can't safely do this. We'll have to
do something like the below, grabbing an unused bit of the poll mask
space and if that's set, then store the fact that EPOLLEXCLUSIVE is set.
So probably best to turn this just into one patch, since it doesn't make
a lot of sense to do it as a prep patch at that point.

This does have the benefit of not growing io_poll_iocb. With your patch,
it'd go beyond a cacheline, and hence bump the size of the entire
io_iocb as well, which would be very unfortunate.

Yes, Agree about that. But I also fear that if the unused bit is used in the
feature, it will bring unexpected behavior.

events in io_poll_iocb is 32-bits already, so why it will bump the size of the io_iocb
structure with my patch?

Yeah, it's certainly not the prettiest and could potentially be fragile.
I'm open to suggestions, we need some way of signaling that the 32-bit
variant of the poll_events should be used. We could potentially make
this work by doing explicit layout for big endian vs little endian, that
might be prettier and wouldn't suffer from the "grab some random bit"
issue.

It's not 32-bits already, it's a __poll_t type which is 16-bits only.

Yes, it is a __poll_t type, but I found that __poll_t type is 32-bits
with the definition below:

typedef unsigned __bitwise __poll_t;

And I also investigate it with crash:
crash> io_poll_iocb -ox
struct io_poll_iocb {
   [0x0] struct file *file;
         union {
   [0x8]     struct wait_queue_head *head;
   [0x8]     u64 addr;
         };
  [0x10] __poll_t events;
  [0x14] bool done;
  [0x15] bool canceled;
  [0x18] struct wait_queue_entry wait;
}

Yeah you're right, not sure why I figured it was 16-bits. But just
checking on my default build:

axboe@x1 ~/gi/linux-block (block-5.8)> pahole -C io_poll_iocb fs/io_uring.o
struct io_poll_iocb {
	struct file *              file;                 /*     0     8 */
	union {
		struct wait_queue_head * head;           /*     8     8 */
		u64                addr;                 /*     8     8 */
	};                                               /*     8     8 */
	__poll_t                   events;               /*    16     4 */
	bool                       done;                 /*    20     1 */
	bool                       canceled;             /*    21     1 */

	/* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */

	struct wait_queue_entry wait;                    /*    24    40 */

	/* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 6 */
	/* sum members: 62, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */
};

and it's definitely 64-bytes in total size (as it should be), and the
'events' is indeed 32-bits as well.

So at least that's good, we don't need anything extra in there. If we
can solve the endian issue, then it should be trivial to use the full
32-bits for the flags in the sqe.

To get back to something that can move us forward, something like the
below I _think_ will work. Then applications just use poll32_events and
we don't have to handle this in any special way. Care to base on that
and re-send the change?

That changes layout for big endian, isn't it? It's not ABI compatible.

Nah this won't work, as the BE layout will be different. So how about
this, just add a 16-bit poll_events_hi instead. App/liburing will set
upper bits there. Something like the below, then just needs the
exclusive wait change on top.

Only downside I can see is that newer applications on older kernels will
set EPOLLEXCLUSIVE but the kernel will ignore it. That's not a huge
concern for this particular bit, but could be a concern if there are
others that prove useful.

Right, see followup message, mid-air collision on that one.

poll_events_hi is 16 bit, EPOLLEXCLUSIVE is (1 << 28). It's always false.
Do you look for something like below?


union {
	...
	__u32		fsync_flags;
	__u16		poll_events;  /* compatibility */
	__u32		poll32_events; /* word-reversed for BE */
};

u32 evs = READ_ONCE(poll32_events);
if (BIG_ENDIAN)
	evs = swahw32(evs); // swap 16-bit halves

// use as always, e.g. if (evs & EPOLLEXCLUSIVE) { ... }

Duh yes, that's much better. Thanks for the clue bat.

Cool, That's clear. And we should do the reverse thing in liburing
for big endian.

I also want to add another feature bit in newer kernel, so that
the newer application should check the feature first before setting
the EPOLLEXCLUSIVE.

Thanks,
