Currently, virtio-9p cannot be used with overlayfs in order to obtain 
Docker-like experience (but with separate kernel) because of file 
attributes problems. I wrote an email about that to qemu-devel almost 
year ago, but it received no attention (I attach its contents below.).

Will virtio-fs avoid these problems? I assume it will be transparent 
from the point of view of file attributes, and not enforce any kind of 
security filtering?

Piotr Jurkiewicz

----

1. Upper filesystem must support the creation of trusted.* extended 
attributes.

9pfs has support for getting/setting xattrs, but calls operating on 
attributes other than user.* and system.posix_acl_* are dropped.

2. Upper filesystem must provide valid d_type in readdir responses.

This works, but only in case of 'passtrough' and 'none' security models. 
In the case of 'mapped-xattr' and 'mapped-file' models, d_type is being 
zeroed to DT_UNKNOWN during readdir() call.

All these limitations can be resolved pretty easily, but requires some 
design decisions. I can prepare appropriate patches.

Ad. 1.

Why are operations on attributes other than than user.* and 
system.posix_acl_* forbidden? Is this due to security reasons?

If so, can we map all of them to user.virtfs namespace, similarly as 
system.posix_acl_* are being mapped to user.virtfs.system.posix_acl_* in 
'mapping' mode already? This way any trusted/security/system attributes 
will be effective only when mounted via virtfs inside VM.

Ad. 2.

local_readdir() can fill entry->d_type with the right DT_* value by 
obtaining file type from mapping and translating it with IFTODT() macro. 
This would, however, require reading 'user.virtfs.mode' for each 
direntry during readdir() call, what can affect performance. If so, this 
behavior would probably need to be controlled with some runtime option.

'mapped-xattr' and 'mapped-file' models are essential for running qemu 
with overlayfs as non-root, because overlayfs creates device nodes, what 
is possible for unprivileged user only with these models.

Hi Piotr,

So you want to use virtio-fs as upper/ layer of a overlay filesystem
inside guest? Interesting. I have not tried that.

As of now I think we are not doing any filtering of file attributes
and it might just work. Give it a try. Having said that, I suspect
that security model of virtio-fs most likely will evolve.

Thanks

Hi Aneesh,

Yes this is with 9p2000.L and cache=loose. I used following mount option.

mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio hostShared /mnt/virtio-9p/ -oversion=9p2000.L,posixacl,cache=loose

We noticed primarily two issues.

- Ran pjdfstests and a lot of them are failing. I think even kata
  container folks also experienced pjdfstests failures. I have never
  looked into details of why it is failing.

- We thought mmap(MAP_SHARED) will not work with virtio-9p when two
  clients are running in two different VMs and mapped same file with
  MAP_SHARED.

Having said that, biggest concern with virtio-9p seems to be performance.
We are looking for ways to improve performance with virtio-fs. Hoping
DAX can provide faster data access and fuse protocol itself seems to
be faster (in primilinary testing results).

Thanks
Vivek

Can you elaborate on this? Is this with 9p2000.L ? We did quiet a lot of
work to make sure posix test suite pass on 9p file system. Also 
was the mount option with cache=loose?

Hi Konrad,

I have not thought much about making it work on Windows or BSD yet. 
Does Fuse work with windows. I am assuming it does with BSD. As long as FUSE
works, I am assuming that atleast basic mode can be made to work.

There are plans to change that. Stefan posted a proposal here.

What about Windows guests or BSD ones? Is there a plan to make that work with them as well?

What about the Virtio spec? Plans to make changes there as well?

Hi,

Here are RFC patches for virtio-fs. Looking for feedback on this approach.

These patches should apply on top of 4.20-rc5. We have also put code for
various components here.

https://gitlab.com/virtio-fs

Problem Description
===================
We want to be able to take a directory tree on the host and share it with
guest[s]. Our goal is to be able to do it in a fast, consistent and secure
manner. Our primary use case is kata containers, but it should be usable in
other scenarios as well.

Containers may rely on local file system semantics for shared volumes,
read-write mounts that multiple containers access simultaneously.  File
system changes must be visible to other containers with the same consistency
expected of a local file system, including mmap MAP_SHARED.

Existing Solutions
==================
We looked at existing solutions and virtio-9p already provides basic shared
file system functionality although does not offer local file system semantics,
causing some workloads and test suites to fail. In addition, virtio-9p
performance has been an issue for Kata Containers and we believe this cannot
be alleviated without major changes that do not fit into the 9P protocol.

Design Overview
===============
With the goal of designing something with better performance and local file
system semantics, a bunch of ideas were proposed.

- Use fuse protocol (instead of 9p) for communication between guest
  and host. Guest kernel will be fuse client and a fuse server will
  run on host to serve the requests. Benchmark results (see below) are
  encouraging and show this approach performs well (2x to 8x improvement
  depending on test being run).

- For data access inside guest, mmap portion of file in QEMU address
  space and guest accesses this memory using dax. That way guest page
  cache is bypassed and there is only one copy of data (on host). This
  will also enable mmap(MAP_SHARED) between guests.

- For metadata coherency, there is a shared memory region which contains
  version number associated with metadata and any guest changing metadata
  updates version number and other guests refresh metadata on next
  access. This is still experimental and implementation is not complete.

How virtio-fs differs from existing approaches
==============================================
The unique idea behind virtio-fs is to take advantage of the co-location
of the virtual machine and hypervisor to avoid communication (vmexits).

DAX allows file contents to be accessed without communication with the
hypervisor. The shared memory region for metadata avoids communication in
the common case where metadata is unchanged.

By replacing expensive communication with cheaper shared memory accesses,
we expect to achieve better performance than approaches based on network
file system protocols. In addition, this also makes it easier to achieve
local file system semantics (coherency).

These techniques are not applicable to network file system protocols since
the communications channel is bypassed by taking advantage of shared memory
on a local machine. This is why we decided to build virtio-fs rather than
focus on 9P or NFS.

HOWTO
======
We have put instructions on how to use it here.

https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/

Caching Modes
=============
Like virtio-9p, different caching modes are supported which determine the
coherency level as well. The “cache=FOO” and “writeback” options control the
level of coherence between the guest and host filesystems. The “shared” option
only has an effect on coherence between virtio-fs filesystem instances
running inside different guests.

- cache=none
  metadata, data and pathname lookup are not cached in guest. They are always
  fetched from host and any changes are immediately pushed to host.

- cache=always
  metadata, data and pathname lookup are cached in guest and never expire.

- cache=auto
  metadata and pathname lookup cache expires after a configured amount of time
  (default is 1 second). Data is cached while the file is open (close to open
  consistency).

- writeback/no_writeback
  These options control the writeback strategy.  If writeback is disabled,
  then normal writes will immediately be synchronized with the host fs. If
  writeback is enabled, then writes may be cached in the guest until the file
  is closed or an fsync(2) performed. This option has no effect on mmap-ed
  writes or writes going through the DAX mechanism.

- shared/no_shared
  These options control the  use of the shared version table. If shared mode
  is enabled then metadata and pathname lookup is cached in guest, but is
  refreshed due to changes in another virtio-fs instance.

DAX 
===
- dax can be turned on/off when mounting virtio-fs inside guest.

WHAT WORKS
==========
- As of now primarily cache options none, auto and always are working.
  shared option is still being worked on.

- Dax on/off seems to work. It does not seem to be as fast as we were
  expecting it to be. Still need to look into optimization opportunities.

TODO
====
- Complete "cache=shared" implementation.
- Look into improving performance for dax. It seems slow.
- Lot of bug fixing, cleanup and performance improvement. 

RESULTS
=======
- pjdfstests are passing. Have tried cache=none/auto/always and dax on/off).
  
  https://github.com/pjd/pjdfstest

  (one symlink test fails and that seems to be due xfs on host. Yet to
   look into it).

- We have run some basic tests and compared with virtio-9p and it seems
  to be faster. I ran "smallfile" utility and a simple fio job to test
  mmap performance.

Test Setup
-----------
- A fedora 28 host with 32G RAM, 2 sockets (6 cores per socket, 2
  threads per core)

- Using a PCIE SSD at host as backing store.

- Created a VM with 16 VCPUS and 6GB memory. A 2GB cache window (for dax
  mmap).
  
fio mmap
--------
Wrote simple fio job to run mmap and READ. Ran test on 1 file and 4
files and different caching modes. File size is 4G. Dropped cache in
guest before each run. Cache on host was untouched. So data on host must
have been cached. These results are average of 3 runs.

		cache mode 	1-file(one thread) 	4-files(4 threads)

virtio-9p	mmap		28 MB/s			140 MB/s
virtio-fs	none + dax	126 MB/s		501 MB/s


virtio-9p	loose	 	31 MB/s			135 MB/s
virtio-fs	always		235 MB/s		858 MB/s
virtio-fs	always + dax	121 MB/s		487 MB/s


smallfile
---------
https://github.com/distributed-system-analysis/smallfile

I basically ran bunch of operations like create, ls-l, read, append,
rename and delete-renamed and measured performance over 3 runs and
took average. Dropped cache after before each operation started
running. Used effectively following command for each operation.

# python smallfile_cli.py --operation create --threads 8 --file-size 1024 --files 2048 --top <test-dir>


		cache mode 	operation	(files/sec) 

virtio-9p	none		create		194
virtio-fs	none		create		714

virtio-9p	mmap		create		201
virtio-fs	none + dax	create		759

virtio-fs	always		create          685
virtio-fs	always + dax	create		735

virtio-9p	loose		ls-l		1619
virtio-fs	always		ls-l		13571
