Hi linux-block and iommu mailing lists,

I have an issue that a USB SSD with xHCI on R-Car H3 causes "swiotlb is full" like below.

    [   36.745286] xhci-hcd ee000000.usb: swiotlb buffer is full (sz: 524288 bytes), total 32768 (slots), used 1338 (slots)

I have investigated this issue by using git bisect, and then I found the following commit:

---
commit 09324d32d2a0843e66652a087da6f77924358e62
Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date:   Tue May 21 09:01:41 2019 +0200

    block: force an unlimited segment size on queues with a virt boundary
---

After the patch above was applied, the max_segment_size of USB SSD is set to UINT_MAX so that
it might be possible to use larger memory size than swiotlb's memory limit that is up to 256 KiB
as I investigated before [1]. Note that if the patch was not applied, the max_segment_size is set
to 65536.

How to resolve this issue? JFYI, I pasted a git bisect log and a kernel log as following:

Hi Christoph,

I think we should continue to discuss on this email thread instead of the fixed DMA-API.txt patch [1]

Thank you for your comment on other email thread [2] like below:
---
Turns out it isn't as simple as I thought, as there doesn't seem to
be an easy way to get to the struct device used for DMA mapping
from USB drivers.  I'll need to think a bit more how to handle that
best.

https://marc.info/?l=linux-doc&m=155989651620473&w=2

I'm not sure this is a correct way, but the issue disappears if I applied a patch below
to USB storage driver. Especially, WARNING happened on blk_queue_max_segment_size().
Maybe we need to expand the argument "struct device *" of blk_queue_virt_boundary() to
call dma_max_mapping_size()?

I have another way to avoid the issue. But it doesn't seem that a good way though...
According to the commit that adding blk_queue_virt_boundary() [3],
this is needed for vhci_hcd as a workaround so that if we avoid to call it
on xhci-hcd driver, the issue disappeared. What do you think?
JFYI, I pasted a tentative patch in the end of email [4].

Hi Yoshihiro,

sorry for not taking care of this earlier, today is a public holiday
here and thus I'm not working much over the long weekend.

Oh, I hadn't even look at why USB uses blk_queue_virt_boundary, and it
seems like the usage is wrong, as it doesn't follow the same rules as
all the others.  I think your patch goes in the right direction,
but instead of comparing a hcd name it needs to be keyed of a flag
set by the driver (I suspect there is one indicating native SG support,
but I can't quickly find it), and we need an alternative solution
for drivers that don't see like vhci.  I suspect just limiting the
entire transfer size to something that works for a single packet
for them would be fine.

Christoph:

In most of the different kinds of USB host controllers, the hardware is
not capable of assembling a packet out of multiple buffers at arbitrary
addresses.  As a matter of fact, xHCI is the only kind that _can_ do 
this.

In some cases, the hardware can assemble packets provided each buffer
other than the last ends at a page boundary and each buffer other than
the first starts at a page boundary (Intel would say the buffers are
"virtually contiguous"), but this is a rather complex rule and we don't
want to rely on it.  Plus, in other cases the hardware _can't_ do this.

Instead, we want the SG buffers to be set up so that each one (except 
the last) is an exact multiple of the maximum packet size.  That way, 
each packet can be assembled from the contents of a single buffer and 
there's no problem.

The maximum packet size depends on the type of USB connection.  
Typical values are 1024, 512, or 64.  It's always a power of two and
it's smaller than 4096.  Therefore we simplify the problem even further
by requiring that each SG buffer in a scatterlist (except the last one)
be a multiple of the page size.  (It doesn't need to be aligned on a 
page boundary, as far as I remember.)

That's why the blk_queue_virt_boundary usage was added to the USB code.  
Perhaps it's not the right way of doing this; I'm not an expert on the
inner workings of the block layer.  If you can suggest a better way to
express our requirement, that would be great.

Alan Stern

PS: There _is_ a flag saying whether an HCD supports SG.  But what it
means is that the driver can handle an SG list that meets the
requirement above; it doesn't mean that the driver can reassemble the
data from an SG list into a series of bounce buffers in order to meet
the requirement.  We very much want not to do that, especially since
the block layer should already be capable of doing it for us.

Hi Alan,

thanks for the explanation.  It seems like what usb wants is to:

 - set sg_tablesize to 1 for devices that can't handle scatterlist at all
 - set the virt boundary as-is for devices supporting "basic" scatterlist,
   although that still assumes they can rejiggle them because for example
   you could still get a smaller than expected first segment ala (assuming
   a 1024 byte packet size and thus 1023 virt_boundary_mask):

        | 0 .. 511 | 512 .. 1023 | 1024 .. 1535 |

   as the virt_bondary does not guarantee that the first segment is
   the same size as all the mid segments.
 - do not set any limit on xhci

But that just goes back to the original problem, and that is that with
swiotlb we are limited in the total dma mapping size, and recent block
layer changes in the way we handle the virt_boundary mean we now build
much larger requests by default.  For SCSI ULDs to take that into
account I need to call dma_max_mapping_size() and use that as the
upper bound for the request size.  My plan is to do that in scsi_lib.c,
but for that we need to expose the actual struct device that the dma
mapping is perfomed on to the scsi layer.  If that device is different
from the sysfs hierchary struct device, which it is for usb the ULDD
needs to scsi_add_host_with_dma and pass the dma device as well.  How
do I get at the dma device (aka the HCDs pci_dev or similar) from
usb-storage/uas?

There is out of this topic though, if we prepare such an exact multiple
of the maximum packet size (1024, 512 or 64), is it possible to cause
trouble on IOMMU environment? IIUC, dma_map_sg() maps SG buffers as
a single segment and then the segment buffer is not contiguous.

Since I'm also not familiar with the block layer, I could not find a better

Hmmm.  usb-storage (and possible other drivers too) currently handles
such controllers by setting up an SG transfer as a series of separate
URBs, one for each scatterlist entry.  But this is not the same thing,
for two reasons:

	It has less I/O overhead than setting sg_tablesize to 1 because 
	it sets up the whole transfer as a single SCSI command, which 
	requires much less time and traffic on the USB bus than sending 
	multiple commands.

	It has that requirement about each scatterlist element except
	the last being a multiple of the maximum packet size in length.
	(This is because the USB protocol says that a transfer ends
	whenever a less-than-maximum-size packet is encountered.)

We would like to avoid the extra I/O overhead for host controllers that
can't handle SG.  In fact, switching to sg_tablesize = 1 would probably
be considered a regression.

But that is exactly the problem we need to solve.

The issue which prompted the commit this thread is about arose in a
situation where the block layer set up a scatterlist containing buffer
sizes something like:

	4096 4096 1536 1024

and the maximum packet size was 1024.  The situation was a little 
unusual, because it involved vhci-hcd (a virtual HCD).  This doesn't 
matter much in normal practice because:

	Block devices normally have a block size of 512 bytes or more.
	Smaller values are very uncommon.  So scatterlist element sizes
	are always divisible by 512.

	xHCI is the only USB host controller type with a maximum packet 
	size larger than 512, and xHCI hardware can do full 
	scatter-gather so it doesn't care what the buffer sizes are.

So another approach would be to fix vhci-hcd and then trust that the
problem won't arise again, for the reasons above.  We would be okay so
long as nobody tried to use a USB-SCSI device with a block size of 256
bytes or less.

From usb_stor_probe2(): us->pusb_dev->bus->sysdev.
From uas_probe(): udev->bus->sysdev.

The ->sysdev field points to the device used for DMA mapping.  It is
often the same as ->controller, but sometimes it is
->controller->parent because of the peculiarities of some platforms.

First things first:

Yoshihiro, can you try this git branch?  The new bits are just the three
patches at the end, but they sit on top of a few patches already sent
out to the list, so a branch is probably either:

   git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git scsi-virt-boundary-fixes

Gitweb:

   http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git/shortlog/refs/heads/scsi-virt-boundary-fixes

And now on to the rest:

Ok, makes sense.

So based on the above I'm a little confused about the actual requirement
again.  Can you still split the SCSI command into multiple URBs?  And
is the boundary for that split still the scatterlist entry as in the
description above?  If so I don't really see how the virt_boundary
helps you at all. as it only guarnatees that in a bio, each subsequent
segment start as the advertised virt_boundary.  It says nothing about
the size of each segment.

Thay is someething the virt_boundary prevents.  But could still give
you something like:

	1536 4096 4096 1024

or
	1536 16384 8192 4096 16384 512

Thank you for the patches!
Unfortunately, the three patches could not resolve this issue.
However, it's a hint to me, and then I found the root cause:
 - slave_configure() in drivers/usb/storage/scsiglue.c calls
   blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() with 2048 sectors (1 MiB) when USB_SPEED_SUPER or more.
 -- So that, even if your patches (also I fixed it a little [1]) could not resolve
    the issue because the max_sectors is overwritten by above code.

So, I think we should fix the slave_configure() by using dma_max_mapping_size().
What do you think? If so, I can make such a patch.

[1]
In the "scsi: take the DMA max mapping size into account" patch,
+       shost->max_sectors = min_t(unsigned int, shost->max_sectors,
+                       dma_max_mapping_size(dev) << SECTOR_SHIFT);

it should be:
+                       dma_max_mapping_size(dev) >> SECTOR_SHIFT);

But, if we fix the slave_configure(), we don't need this patch, IIUC.

Best regards,
Yoshihiro Shimoda

Yes. The device sees only a number of packets over the wire. They can
come from an arbitrary number of URBs with the two restrictions that
- we cannot split a packet among URBs
- every packet but the last must be a multiple of maxpacket

That is problematic.

That would kill the driver, if maxpacket were 1024.

USB has really two kinds of requirements

1. What comes from the protocol
2. What comes from the HCD

The protocol wants just multiples of maxpacket. XHCI can satisfy
that in arbitrary scatter/gather. Other HCs cannot.

We have no real way to enforce that for the other HCs unfortunately.
I can't really think of any better way to handle their limitations
except for setting max_segments to 1 or bounce buffering.

Would it be okay to rely on the assumption that USB block devices never 
have block size < 512?  (We could even add code to the driver to 
enforce this, although refusing to handle such devices at all might be 
worse than getting an occasional error.)

As I mentioned before, the only HCD that sometimes ends up with
maxpacket = 1024 but is unable to do full SG is vhci-hcd, and that one
shouldn't be too hard to fix.

sd.c only supports a few specific sector size, and none of them is
< 512 bytes:

	if (sector_size != 512 &&
	    sector_size != 1024 &&
	    sector_size != 2048 &&
	    sector_size != 4096) {

Christoph,

Yep, while sd.c in theory supported 256-byte logical blocks a while
back, that code was removed since the block layer always operates on
units of 512 bytes.

Great!  So all we have to do is fix vhci-hcd.  Then we can remove all 
the virt_boundary_mask stuff from usb-storage and uas entirely.

(I'm assuming wireless USB isn't a genuine issue.  As far as I know, it 
is pretty much abandoned at this point.)

Valentina and Shua: Adding SG support to vhci-hcd shouldn't be too
hard.  It ought to be possible even without changing the network
protocol.

It is, I need to just move it to staging and delete the thing.  I don't
know of any hardware anymore.

I will start taking a look at this. Is there a target release in plan
to drop virt_boundary_mask stuff?

Not yet.  But since it doesn't do what we want anyway, this should be 
fixed quickly.

I missed a lot of the thread info. and went looking for it and found the
following summary of the problem:

==================
The issue which prompted the commit this thread is about arose in a
situation where the block layer set up a scatterlist containing buffer
sizes something like:

	4096 4096 1536 1024

and the maximum packet size was 1024.  The situation was a little
unusual, because it involved vhci-hcd (a virtual HCD).  This doesn't
matter much in normal practice because:

	Block devices normally have a block size of 512 bytes or more.
	Smaller values are very uncommon.  So scatterlist element sizes
	are always divisible by 512.

	xHCI is the only USB host controller type with a maximum packet
	size larger than 512, and xHCI hardware can do full
	scatter-gather so it doesn't care what the buffer sizes are.

So another approach would be to fix vhci-hcd and then trust that the
problem won't arise again, for the reasons above.  We would be okay so
long as nobody tried to use a USB-SCSI device with a block size of 256
bytes or less.
===================

Out of the summary, the following gives me pause:

"xHCI hardware can do full scatter-gather so it doesn't care what the
buffer sizes are."

vhci-hcd won't be able to count on hardware being able to do full
scatter-gather. It has to deal with a variety of hardware with
varying speeds.

"We would be okay so long as nobody tried to use a USB-SCSI device with
a block size of 256 bytes or less."

At least a USB Storage device, I test with says 512 block size. Can we
count on not seeing a device with block size <= 256 bytes?

In any case, I am looking into adding SG support vhci-hci at the moment.

Looks like the following is the repo, I should be working with?

git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git

thanks,

Sure.  But you can test whether the server's HCD is able to handle 
scatter-gather transfers, and if it is then you can say that the 
client-side vhci-hcd is able to handle them as well.  Then all you 
would have to do is preserve the scatterlist information describing the 
transfer when you go between the client and the server.

The point is to make sure that the client-side vhci-hcd doesn't claim
to be _less_ capable than the server-side actual HCD.  That's what
leads to the problem described above.

Yes, we can.  In fact, the SCSI core doesn't handle devices with block 
size < 512.

It doesn't matter.  Your work should end up being independent of 
Christoph's, so you can base it on any repo.

I implemented SG support of vhci. I will send it as a patch.
Please look at it and let me know if you have a feedback.
