To: netdev; +Cc: Max Krasnyansky, virtualization, linux-kernel
kvm (and lguest!) want to get more speed out of the tun device. We already
have an ABI for guest<->host comms, called virtio_ring; extending tun to
understand this (with its async nature and batching) make for an efficient
network.
But moreover: the same things that make virtio a good guest<->host transport
make it appealing as a userspace<->kernel transport. So rather than do
something just for tun, we create a /dev/vring. We could do a system call,
but /dev/vring is sufficient. It is a nice, simple format for normal tun
usage too.
We do need a small (backwards-compatible) extension to the ring format if
we're going to do this however, since we didn't previously expose the
consumer's view of the producer (and vice verse) in the ring because the
other end doesn't need to see it. However, it means that a middleman (as the
kvm or lguest launcher process now becomes) cannot save and restore all the
ring state.
Cheers,
Rusty.

Generally, the other end of the virtio ring doesn't need to see where
you're up to in consuming the ring. However, in order for an external
entity to understand it, it must be exposed. For example, if you want
to save and restore a virtio_ring, but you're not the consumer because
the kernel is using it directly.
Fortunately, we have room to expand: the ring is always a whole number
of pages and there's hundreds of bytes of padding after the avail ring
and the used ring, whatever the number of descriptors (which must be a
power of 2).
We add a feature bit so the guest can tell the host that it's writing
out the current value there, if it wants to use that.

To: netdev; +Cc: Max Krasnyansky, virtualization, linux-kernel
virtio introduced a ring structure ABI for guest-host communications
(currently used by lguest and kvm). Using this same ABI, we can
create a nice fd version.
This is useful for efficiently passing packets to and from the tun,
for example.

It turns out the lguest (and possibly kvm) want the addresses in the
ring buffer to only cover a certain part of memory, and be offset.
It makes sense that this be an ioctl.

This patch modifies tun to allow a vringfd to specify the receive
buffer. Because we can't copy to userspace in bh context, we queue
like normal then use the "pull" hook to actually do the copy.
We use struct virtio_net_hdr prepended to packets in the ring to allow
userspace to receive GSO packets in future (at the moment, the tun
driver doesn't tell the stack it can handle them, so these cases are
never taken). This will need to be something that userspace tells us
it can handle.

This patch modifies tun to allow a vringfd to specify the send
buffer. The user does a write to push out packets from the buffer.
Again we use the 'struct virtio_net_hdr' to allow userspace to send
GSO packets. In this case, it can hint how much to copy, and the
other pages will be made into skb fragments.

hm, I don't understand the big picture here yet.
Isn't this kinda-sorta like what a relayfs file does? The oprofile

Hi Rusty,
A trivial suggestion, how about
npages = 1+(len -1)/PAGE_SIZE ?
Thanks,

That's not the same. In particular, his version accounts for the
fractional page at the beginning, while yours doesn't.
While it's tempting to use algebra to simplify things, it's not safe
to do so when the expression involves division over the integers. The
only care-free integer math in a computer is subtraction and ++.

An excellent question, but I thought the modern kernel etiquette was to only
comment on whitespace and formatting, and call it "review"? :)
Yes, kinda-sorta in that it's a ring buffer. No, in that it's bidir and
consumption can be out-of-order (kind of important for I/O buffers).
But the reason I'm not proposing it as a syscall is that I'm not convinced
it's the One True Solution which everyone should be using. Time will tell:
it's clearly not tied to tun and it's been generically useful for virtual
I/O, but history has not been kind to new userspace interfaces.

I tested it when I wrote it, but just wrote a tester again:
base len npages
0 1 1

0 4096 1

Since only root can open the tun device, it's currently OK. The old code
kmalloced and copied: is there some mm-fu reason why pinning userspace memory
is worse?
But I actually think it's OK even for non-root, since these become skbs, which
means they either go into an outgoing device queue or a socket queue which is
accounted for exactly for this reason.

Damn, you had me reworking this until I realized why. It's not: we're
inside a loop, doing one iovec array element at a time.

To simplify the failure path. Hmm, I would use release_pages here...

... but I didn't know that existed. Had to include pagemap.h, and it's not
exported. It seems to be a useful interface; see patch.
Cheers,
Rusty.
Subject: Export release_pages; nice undo for get_user_pages.
Andrew Morton suggests tun/tap use release_pages, but it's not
exported. It's not clear to me why this is in swap.c, but it exists
even without CONFIG_SWAP, so that's OK.

Picky, picky :-).
If base were always page aligned, we'd want
npages = (len + PAGE_SIZE - 1) / PAGE_SIZE;
which is simply rounding len up to the next largest page size. So when
base is not page aligned, increase len by the left-over space at the
beginning, and then do the same calculation as above. (ie, pretend
base is page aligned, and instead count the excess at the beginning as
part of len.)
npages = ( (base & PAGE_MASK) + len + PAGE_SIZE - 1) / PAGE_SIZE;
As long as len < PAGE_MASK - PAGE_SIZE, we're safe from overflows.
(The above gives a different answer when len=0, but you guard for that.)

This is may be our third high-bandwidth user/kernel interface to transport
bulk data ("hbukittbd") which was implemented because its predecessors
weren't quite right. In a year or two's time someone else will need a
hbukittbd and will find that the existing three aren't quite right and will
give us another one. One day we need to stop doing this ;)
It could be that this person will look at Rusty's hbukittbd and find that
it _could_ be tweaked to do what he wants, but it's already shipping and
it's part of the kernel API and hence can't be made to do what he wants.
So I think it would be good to plonk the proposed interface on the table
and have a poke at it. Is it compat-safe? Is it extensible in a
backward-compatible fashion? Are there future-safe changes we should make
to it? Can Michael Kerrisk understand, review and document it? etc.
You know what I'm saying ;) What is the proposed interface?

We generally try to avoid it - it allows users to dos the box. Although I
suspect that direct-io presently permits users to transiently pin an amount
of memory which is proportional to the number of disks upon which they can
open files.

Well, it helps if he's CCed....
I'm happy to work *with someone* on the documentation (pointless to do
it on my own -- how do I know what Rusty's *intended* behavior for the
interface is), and review, and testing.

My question is: is pinning a page worse than allocating a (kernel) page in
some way?

So, I'm not Michael, but I *did* make an attempt to document this
interface - user and kernel sides - so that it could be more easily
understood:
http://lwn.net/Articles/276856/
That was the previous posting, but a quick look suggests it hasn't
changed *that* much in this round.

No; it's up to the caller to make sure that they are serialized. In the case
of tun that happens naturally.
There are two reasons not to grab the lock. It turns out that if we tried to
lock here, we'd deadlock, since the callbacks are called under the lock.
Secondly, it's possible to implement an atomic vring_used_buffer variant,
which could fail: this would avoid using the thread most of the time.
Hope that helps,
Rusty.

Yep, I decided that too. But it limits its usage to tun only or any
other system where only single thread picks up results, so no generic
userspace ring buffers?

Indeed. I marked it experimental because of these questions (ie. it's not yet
kernel ABI). Getting everyone's attention is hard tho, so I figured we put
it in as a device and moving to a syscall if and when we feel it's ready.

It is compat safe, and we've already extended it once, so I'm reasonably happy
so far. If it were a syscall I'd add a flags arg, for the device it'd be an
ioctl. Starting with the virtio ABI seemed a reasonable first step, because
*we* can use this today even if noone else does.

I don't think so, it just externalizes the locking. The mutex protects the
attaching and detaching of the ops structure, some other lock or code
protects simultenous kernel ring accesses.
Cheers,

I guess pinning is not as bad as straight-out allocating.
Pinning is limited to the size of the program's VM. Pinning
it at least pining something which is accounted and is exposed
to admin tools.
But they're both pretty similar in effect and risk.

I'm starting to disbelieve the myth that because we can discuss
technical issues on mailing lists, we should talk primarily about
process issues during the kernel summit.
There is a distinct advantage to discussing and hashing things out in
person. You can't say "screw you, your idea sucks" when you're face
to face with the other person, whereas online it's way too easy.
