[RFC PATCH v3 0/3] Async nvme passthrough over io_uring

[RFC PATCH v3 0/3] Async nvme passthrough over io_uring

[Kanchan Joshi]

This series adds async passthrough capability for nvme block-dev over
iouring_cmd. The patches are on top of Jens uring-cmd branch:
https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/linux-block/log/?h=io_uring-fops.v3

Application is expected to allocate passthrough command structure, set
it up traditionally, and pass its address via "block_uring_cmd->addr".
On completion, CQE is posted with completion-status after any ioctl
specific buffer/field update.

Changes from v2:
1. Rebase against latest uring-cmd branch of Jens
2. Remove per-io nvme_command allocation
3. Disallow passthrough commands with non-zero command effects

Change from v1:
1. Rewire the work on top of Jens uring-cmd interface
2. Support only passthrough, and not other nvme ioctls

Kanchan Joshi (3):
  io_uring: add helper for uring_cmd completion in submitter-task
  nvme: keep nvme_command instead of pointer to it
  nvme: wire up support for async passthrough

[RFC PATCH v3 1/3] io_uring: add helper for uring_cmd completion in submitter-task

[Kanchan Joshi]

Completion of a uring_cmd ioctl may involve referencing certain
ioctl-specific fields, requiring original subitter context.
Introduce 'uring_cmd_complete_in_task' that driver can use for this
purpose. The API facilitates task-work infra, while driver gets to
implement cmd-specific handling in a callback.

[RFC PATCH v3 2/3] nvme: keep nvme_command instead of pointer to it

[Kanchan Joshi]

nvme_req structure originally contained a pointer to nvme_command.
Change nvme_req structure to keep the command itself.
This helps in avoiding hot-path memory-allocation for async-passthrough.

I think this should be have an io_ prefix:
io_uring_cmd_complete_in_task()

I'll let Jens comment if this is needed at all...

Do you have a test app? I'd be curious to try and add support for this
to t/io_uring from fio just to run some perf numbers.

I have a slightly different take on how to handle pre-allocated
passthrough commands. Every transport except PCI already preallocates a
'struct nvme_command' within the pdu, so allocating another one looks
redundant. Also, it does consume quite a bit of memory for something
that is used only for the passthrough case.

I think we can solve both concerns by always using the PDU nvme_command
rather than have the transport drivers provide it. I just sent the patch
here if you can take a look. It tested fine on PCI and loop (haven't
tested any other transports).

The whole typing is a mess, but this mostly goes back to the series
you're basing this on.  Jens, can you send out the series so that
we can do a proper review?

IMHO struct io_uring_cmd needs to stay private in io-uring.c, and
the method needs to get the file and the untyped payload in form
of a void * separately.  and block_uring_cmd should be private to
the example ioctl, not exposed to drivers implementing their own
schemes.

This should be mark static and have a much more descriptive name
including a nvme_ prefix.

The comments aren't very useful, and the cast here is a warning sign.
Why do you need it?

Shouldn't the io-uring core take care of this io_uring_cmd_done

How can we free the request here if the data is only copied out in

nvme_submit_user_cmd already is a mess.  Please split this out into
a separate function.  Maybe the logic to map the user buffers can be
split into a little shared helper.

Another comment on the original infrastructure:  this really needs to
be a block_device_operations method taking a struct block_device instead
of being tied into blk-mq.

I don't think this shoud be exported.

Sounds fine, thanks for the patch, looking at it.
Which kernel you used for these. 'Patch 2' doesn't  apply cleanly.

I used nvme-5.13 as my starting point.

You shouldn't need to be concerned with this. You've wired up the ioucmd
only to the NVME_IOCTL_IO_CMD, and nvme_command_effects() can only
return 0 for that.

It would be worth adding support for NVME_IOCTL_IO_CMD64 too, though,
and that doesn't change the effects handling either.

I will post it soon, only reason I haven't reposted is that I'm not that
happy with how the sqe split is done (and that it's done in the first
place). But I'll probably just post the current version for comments,
and hopefully we can get it to where it needs to be soon.

Yes, I don't like that at all either.  I almost wonder if we should
use an entirely different format after opcode and flags, although
I suspect fd would be nice to have in the same spot as well.

On a related note: I think it really should have a generic cmd
dispatching mechanism like ioctls have, preferably even enforcing
the _IO* mechanism.

There is no good reason to support the non-64 structure in new code.
And we really should support the admin command submission (on the char
device node) as well.

Exactly - trying to think of how best to do this. It's somewhat a shame
that I didn't place user_data right after fd, or even at the end of the
struct. But oh well.

One idea would be to have io_uring_sqe_hdr and have that be
op/flags/prio/fd as we should have those for anything, and just embed
that at the top of both io_uring_sqe (our general command), and
io_uring_whatever which is what the passthrough stuff would use.

Not sure, I need to dabble in the code a bit and see how we can make it
the cleanest.

Yes, we could certainly do that. I don't want to turn it into a
free-for-all and the wild west of passthrough, some notion of coherent
definitions would be prudent.

How about something like the top two patches here to kick it off, then

I don't like this at all, it's very possible that we'd need async
data for passthrough commands as well in certain cases. And what it
gets to that point, we'll have no other recourse than to un-unionize
this and pay the cost. It also means we end up with:

which are also very fragile.

We already have the task work, just have the driver init and/or call a
helper to get it run from task context with the callback it desires?

Then you're basically jumping through hoops to get that callback.
Why don't you just have:

io_uring_schedule_task(struct io_uring_cmd *cmd, task_work_func_t cb)
{
	struct io_kiocb *req = container_of(cmd, struct io_kiocb, uring_cmd);
	int ret;

	req->task_work.func = cb;
	ret = io_req_task_work_add(req);
	if (unlikely(ret)) {
		req->result = -ECANCELED;
		io_req_task_work_add_fallback(req, io_req_task_cancel);
	}
	return ret;
}

?

Also, please export any symbol with _GPL. I don't want non-GPL drivers
using this infrastructure.

Sounds good! I commented on 1/3, I think it can be simplified and
cleaned up quite a bit, which is great. Then let's base it on top of v4
that I posted, let me know if you run into any issues with that.

I did not want to have it this way....but faced troubles with the more

I started with that, but the problem was implementing the driver callback .
The callbacks receive only one argument which is "struct callback_head
*", and the driver needs to extract "io_uring_cmd *" out of it.
This part -
+static void uring_cmd_work(struct callback_head *cb)
+{
+     struct io_kiocb *req = container_of(cb, struct io_kiocb, task_work);
+     struct io_uring_cmd *cmd = &req->uring_cmd;

If the callback has to move to the driver (nvme), the driver needs
visibility to "struct io_kiocb" which is uring-local.
Do you see a better way to handle this?
I also thought about keeping the driver_cb inside the unused part of
uring_cmd (instead of union with req->async_data), but it had two
problems - 1. uring needs to peek inside driver-part of uring_cmd to
invoke this callback
2. losing precious space  (I am using that space to avoid per-command
dynamic-allocation in driver)

Got it.

Can't you just add a helper in io_uring.c that does something like this:

struct io_uring_cmd *callback_to_io_uring_cmd(struct callback_head *cb)
{
	return &container_of(cb, struct io_kiocb, task_work)->uring_cmd;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(callback_to_io_uring_cmd);

At some point we (driver) need to tell the io_uring that command is
over, and return the status to it so that uring can update CQE.
This call "io_uring_cmd_done" does just that.

Things that we want to use in task_work (command status and result)
are alive in "ucd" (which is carved inside uring_cmd itself, and will
not be reclaimed until we tell io_uring that command is over).
The meta buffer is separate, and it is also alive via ucd->meta. It
will be freed only in task-work.
bio/request/pages cleanup do not have to wait till task-work.

It is needed to populate the callback in PCI transport. Not right?

Please see if this is accessible to you -
https://github.com/joshkan/fio/commit/6c18653bc87015213a18c23d56518d4daf21b191

I run it on nvme device with the extra option "-uring_cmd=1". And pit
passthru read/write against regular uring read/write.
While write perf looks fine, I notice higher-qd reads going tad-bit
low which is puzzling.
But I need to test more to see if this is about my test-env (including
the added test-code) itself.

It will be great if you could, at some point in future, have a look at
this test or spin off what you already had in mind.
