Subject: [PATCH v11 00/25] mm/gup: track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN
Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2019 14:25:12 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191216222537.491123-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
Hi,
This implements an API naming change (put_user_page*() -->
unpin_user_page*()), and also implements tracking of FOLL_PIN pages. It
extends that tracking to a few select subsystems. More subsystems will
be added in follow up work.
Christoph Hellwig, a point of interest:
a) I've moved the bulk of the code out of the inline functions, as
requested, for the devmap changes (patch 4: "mm: devmap: refactor
1-based refcounting for ZONE_DEVICE pages").
Changes since v10: Remaining fixes resulting from Jan Kara's reviews:
* Shifted to using the sign bit in page_dma_pinned() to allow accurate
results even in the overflow case. See the comments in that routine
for details. This allowed getting rid of the new
page_ref_zero_or_close_to_bias_overflow(), in favor of a simple
sign check via "page_ref_count() <= 0").
* Simplified some of the huge_memory.c changes, and simplified a gup.c
WARN invocation.
* Now using a standard -ENOMEM for most try_grab_page() failures.
* Got rid of tabs in the comment headers (I had thought they were
required there, but it's actually the reverse: they are not
allowed there).
* Rebased against 5.5-rc2 and retested.
* Added Jan Kara's reviewed-by tag for patch 23 (the main patch of the
series).
Changes since v9: Fixes resulting from Jan Kara's and Jonathan Corbet's
reviews:
* Removed reviewed-by tags from the "mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages" (those
were improperly inherited from the much smaller refactoring patch that
was merged into it).
* Made try_grab_compound_head() and try_grab_page() behavior similar in
their behavior with flags, in order to avoid "gotchas" later.
* follow_trans_huge_pmd(): moved the try_grab_page() to earlier in the
routine, in order to avoid having to undo mlock_vma_page().
* follow_hugetlb_page(): removed a refcount overflow check that is now
extraneous (and weaker than what try_grab_page() provides a few lines
further down).
* Fixed up two Documentation flaws, pointed out by Jonathan Corbet's
review.
Changes since v8:
* Merged the "mm/gup: pass flags arg to __gup_device_* functions" patch
into the "mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages" patch, as requested by
Christoph and Jan.
* Changed void grab_page() to bool try_grab_page(), and handled errors
at the call sites. (From Jan's review comments.) try_grab_page()
attempts to avoid page refcount overflows, even when counting up with
GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS increments.
* Fixed a bug that I'd introduced, when changing a BUG() to a WARN().
* Added Jan's reviewed-by tag to the " mm/gup: allow FOLL_FORCE for
get_user_pages_fast()" patch.
* Documentation: pin_user_pages.rst: fixed an incorrect gup_benchmark
invocation, left over from the pin_longterm days, spotted while preparing
this version.
* Rebased onto today's linux.git (-rc1), and re-tested.
Changes since v7:
* Rebased onto Linux 5.5-rc1
* Reworked the grab_page() and try_grab_compound_head(), for API
consistency and less diffs (thanks to Jan Kara's reviews).
* Added Leon Romanovsky's reviewed-by tags for two of the IB-related
patches.
* patch 4 refactoring changes, as mentioned above.
There is a git repo and branch, for convenience:
git@github.com:johnhubbard/linux.git pin_user_pages_tracking_v8
For the remaining list of "changes since version N", those are all in
v7, which is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191121071354.456618-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com
============================================================
Overview:
This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions
between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1],
[2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about
2017. :)
A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly
documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst.
I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the
layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because
these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically
named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even
know if a page is "dma-pinned".
In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be
incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have
been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by
changing from this:
get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET)
put_page()
to this:
pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN)
unpin_user_page()
============================================================
Testing:
* I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies),
and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you
can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've
been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and
pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of
the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines
changed, each.
Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand
reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage
is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC
folks could do a smoke test of this series for me.
Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light:
* io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and
they pass.
* process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes.
* gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and
passes.
* infiniband: ran "ib_write_bw", which exercises the umem.c changes,
but not the other changes.
* VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's
not ready just yet)
* powerpc: it compiles...
* drm/via: compiles...
* goldfish: compiles...
* net/xdp: compiles...
* media/v4l2: compiles...
