The 9p code doesn't take advantage of the IDR's ability to store
a pointer.  We can actually get rid of the p9_idpool abstraction
and the multi-dimensional array of requests.

v2: Address feedback from Dominique.

Matthew Wilcox (6):
  9p: Fix comment on smp_wmb
  9p: Change p9_fid_create calling convention
  9p: Replace the fidlist with an IDR
  9p: Embed wait_queue_head into p9_req_t
  9p: Use a slab for allocating requests
  9p: Remove p9_idpool

The previous comment misled me into thinking the barrier wasn't needed
at all.

Return NULL instead of ERR_PTR when we can't allocate a FID.  The ENOSPC
return value was getting all the way back to userspace, and that's
confusing for a userspace program which isn't expecting read() to tell it
there's no space left on the filesystem.  The best error we can return to
indicate a temporary failure caused by lack of client resources is ENOMEM.

Maybe it would be better to sleep until a FID is available, but that's
not a change I'm comfortable making.

The p9_idpool being used to allocate the IDs uses an IDR to allocate
the IDs ... which we then keep in a doubly-linked list, rather than in
the IDR which allocated them.  We can use an IDR directly which saves
two pointers per p9_fid, and a tiny memory allocation per p9_client.

On a 64-bit system, the wait_queue_head_t is 24 bytes while the pointer
to it is 8 bytes.  Growing the p9_req_t by 16 bytes is better than
performing a 24-byte memory allocation.

Replace the custom batch allocation with a slab.  Use an IDR to store
pointers to the active requests instead of an array.  We don't try to
handle P9_NOTAG specially; the IDR will happily shrink all the way back
once the TVERSION call has completed.

Thanks, I've picked them up for 4.19
 ( git://github.com/martinetd/linux 9p-next as per mail on
 v9fs-developer list, "Current 9P patches - test branch")

This shouldn't stop anyone else from doing more reviews/test, I'm doing
this 9p-patch-gathering on no autority and I've only checked very basic
things for now.

Ah, I had missed that you didn't update this memset as you said in reply
to comment on v1.

Could you resend just this patch and either initialize fid->fid or use
kzalloc for the fid allocation?

If you do resend, alignment here was wrong.

Did that instead ;-)

If I were going to initialise the entire structure to 0, I'd replace
the kmalloc with kzalloc and drop the memset altogether.

> If you do resend, alignment here was wrong.

I think this warning from checkpatch is complete bullshit.  It's
really none of checkpatch's business how I choose to align function
arguments.

That said, if you want it to be aligned some particular way, feel free
to adjust the whitespace.  I don't care.

I would tend to agree that sometimes checkpatch is overzealous, but
having worked on projects where code style is all over the place it
really feels much more comfortable to have a consistent style
everywhere.

Thanks for the permission, I'll adjust it (assuming this does end up
getting pulled from my branch, but nobody yelled so far)

This is true when all tags have been used at least once. But the current code
lazily allocates the wait_queue_head_t, ie, only when a tag is used for the
first time. Your patch causes a full row of wait_quest_head_t to be pre-allocated.

ie, P9_ROW_MAXTAG * 24 = 255 * 24 = 6120

instead of (P9_ROW_MAXTAG * 8) + 24 = 255 * 8 + 24 = 2064

This is nearly a page of allocated memory that might be never used.

Not sure if this is a problem though...

I thought the exact same, but the next patch in the serie removes that
array and allocates even more lazily with a slab, so this was a
no-brainer :)

It is best to use GFP_NOFS instead, or else it may cause some
unpredictable problem, because when out of memory it will
reclaim memory from v9fs.

use spin_lock instead, clnt->lock is not used in irq context.

Earlier in this function, fid was allocated with GFP_KERNEL:

I don't think that's right.  What about p9_fid_destroy?  It was already
using spin_lock_irqsave(), so I just assumed that whoever wrote that
code at least considered that it might be called from interrupt context.

Also consider p9_free_req() which shares the same lock.  We could get
rid of clnt->lock altogether as there's a lock embedded in each IDR,
but that'll introduce an unwanted dependence on the RDMA tree in this
merge window.

Why?  p9_fid_destroy calls idr_remove() for each fid, so it'll already
be empty.

Thanks for all the review, to everyone who's submitted review.  This is
a really healthy community.

+Cc Greg, I could use your opinion on this if you have a moment.

Sorry for coming back to this patch now, I just noticed something that's
actually probably a fairly big hit on performance...

While the slab is just as good as the array for the request itself, this
makes every single request allocate "fcalls" everytime instead of
reusing a cached allocation.
The default msize is 8k and these allocs probably are fairly efficient,
but some transports like RDMA allow to increase this to up to 1MB... And
doing this kind of allocation twice for every packet is going to be very
slow.
(not that hogging megabytes of memory was a great practice either!)


One thing is that the buffers are all going to be the same size for a
given client (.... except virtio zc buffers, I wonder what I'm missing
or why that didn't blow up before?)
Err, that aside I was going to ask if we couldn't find a way to keep a
pool of these somehow.
Ideally putting them in another slab so they could be reclaimed if
necessary, but the size could vary from one client to another, can we
create a kmem_cache object per client? the KMEM_CACHE macro is not very
flexible so I don't think that is encouraged... :)


It's a shame because I really like that patch, I'll try to find time to
run some light benchmark with varying msizes eventually but I'm not sure
when I'll find time for that... Hopefully before the 4.19 merge window!

I must admit to having not looked at the fcall aspect of this.  kmalloc
is implemented in terms of slab, so it's not going to be much slower than
using a dedicatd slab (a few instructions to figure out which slab cache
to use).

What would help is splitting the p9_fcall struct from the alloc_size.
kmalloc is pretty effective at allocating power-of-two sized structures,
and 8k + 32 bytes is approximately the worst case scenario.  I'd do this
by embedding the p9_fcall into the p9_req_t and only allocating the
msize, like this:

(I only converted client.c to the new embedded fcall way; all the
transports also need massaging)

Regardless of whether any of the other patches go in, this patch is
worth having; it's really wasting slab allocator memory.

Yeah, kmalloc-8, kmalloc-16 etc. This is fast and efficient if the
requested amount is a power of two as you said below.

Good idea, I'll include something like this in my benchmarks.

I'm still worried about big allocs for bigger rdma msizes (we've had our
share of troubles with mellanox allocating some big 256k queue pairs and
failing pretty often on very memory-fragmented servers, so now that's
fixed I'd rather avoid reproducing the same kind of pattern if
possible...), but the root of the problem is that it's a scam to call
that rdma when the protocol only allows send/recv operations... I guess
this could finally be motivation to work on a v2 allowing for zero-copy
and some scatter-gather lists to allow using fragmented memory.

Thanks for the fast reply as usual.

The other patchs don't have anything wrong, but I agree I'd want to keep
this as well unless the numbers are really horrible.
Still needs checking, though!

Hi Dominique,

The patch is quite big and I'm not sure I can find time to review it
carefully, but I'll try to help anyway.

It can be even bigger with virtio:

#define VIRTQUEUE_NUM	128

	.maxsize = PAGE_SIZE * (VIRTQUEUE_NUM - 3),

On a typical ppc64 server class setup with 64KB pages, this is nearly 8MB.

ZC allocates a 4KB buffer, which is more than enough to hold the 7-byte 9P
header and the "dqd" part of all messages that may use ZC, ie, 16 bytes.
So I'm not sure to catch what could blow up.

Yeah, the open-coded cache we have now really obfuscates things.

Maybe have a per-client kmem_cache object for non-ZC requests with
size msize [*], and a global kmem_cache object for ZC requests with
fixed size P9_ZC_HDR_SZ.

[*] the server can require a smaller msize during version negotiation,
    so maybe we should change the kmem_cache object in this case.

Cheers,

I don't think I'll be able to test 64KB pages, and it's "just" 500k with
4K pages so I'll go with IB.
I just finished reinstalling my IB-enabled VMs, now to get some iops
test running (dbench maybe) and I'll get some figures to be able to play
with different models and evaluate the impact of these.

ZC requests won't blow up, but from what I can see with the current
(old) request cache array, if a ZC request has a not-yet used tag it'll
allocate a new 4k buffer, then if a normal request uses that tag it'll
get the 4k buffer instead of an msize sized one.

On the client size the request would be posted with req->rc->capacity
which would correctly be 4k, but I'm not sure what would happen if qemu
tries to write more than the given size to that request?

Yeah, if we're going to want to accomodate non-power of two buffers, I
think we'll need a separate kmem_cache for them.
The ZC requests could be made into exactly 4k and these could come with
regular kmalloc just fine, it looks like trying to create a cache of
that size would just return the same cache used by kmalloc anyway so
it's probably easier to fall back to kmalloc if requested alloc size
doesn't match what we were hoping for.

I'll try to get figures for various approaches before the merge window
for 4.19 starts, it's getting closer though...

Indeed.

QEMU would detect that the sg list doesn't have enough capacity.
Old QEMUs used to return a RERROR or RLERROR message with ENOBUFS
in this case. This didn't made sense to hijack the 9P protocol, which
is transport agnostic to report misconfigured buffers. Especially, in
the worst case, maybe we wouldn't even have enough space for the error
response... So, since QEMU 2.10, we put the virtio 9p device into
broken state instead, ie, inoperative until it gets reset.


I guess this situation was never hit because server responses mostly
need less than 4KB...

You're right, ZC requests could rely on kmalloc() directly.

Great thanks for your effort, but we've been leaving with this code
since the beginning. If this misses the 4.19 merge window, we'll have
more time to validate the approach and polish the fix for 4.20 :)

Here's some numbers; with v4.18-rc7 + current test tree (my 9p-next) as
a base.


For the context, I'm running on VMs that bind their cores to CPUs on the
host (32 cores), and have a Connect-IB mellanox card through SRIOV.

The server is nfs-ganesha, serving a tmpfs filesystem on a second VM
(different host)

Mounting with msize=$((1024*1024))

My main problem with this test is that the client has way too much
memory and it's mostly pristine with a boot not long before, so any kind
of memory pressure won't be seen here.
If someone knows how to fragment memory quickly I'll take that and rerun
the tests :)


I've changed my mind from mdtest to a simple ior, as I'm testing on
trans=rdma there's no difference and I'm more familiar with ior options.

I ran two workloads:
 - 32 processes, file per process, 512k at a time writing a total of
32GB (1GB per file), repeated 10 times
 - 32 processes, file per process, 32 bytes at a time writing a total of
16MB (512k per file), repeated 10 times.

The first test gives a proper impression of the throughput the systems
can sustain and the results are pretty much around what I was expecting
for the setup; the second test is purely a latency test (how long does
it take to send 512k RPCs)


I ran almost all of these tests with KASAN enabled in the VMs a first
time, so leaving the results with KASAN at the end for reference...


Overall I'm rather happy with the result, without KASAN the overhead of
the patch isn't negligible (~6%) but I'd say it's acceptable for
correctness and with an extra two patchs with the suggesteed changes
(rounding down the alloc size to not include the struct overhead and
separate kmem cache) it's getting down to 0.5% which is quite good, I
think.

I'll send the two patchs to the list shortly. The first one is rather
huge even if it's a trivial change logically, so part of me wants to get
it merged quickly to not have to deal with rebases... ;)


With KASAN, well, it certainly does more things but I hope
performance-critical systems don't have it enabled in the first place.

there should be no difference? And this turned out fine without KASAN...

From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@cea.fr>

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
allocations a bit, especially in case of non-"round" msizes.

The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.

Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.

Hi Dominique,

This is really a *big* patch, but the modification seems no harm. And I
suggest running testcases to cover this. Please see my comments below.

I'm always running tests, but more never hurt - please help ;)

For reference I'm running a subset of cthon04[1], ltp[2] and some custom

Good point, it's possible to jump here if the first fcall_alloc failed
since this declustered the two allocations.

Please consider this added to the previous patch (I'll send a v2 after
this has had more time for review, you can find the amended commit in my
9p-test tree meanwhile):

The second goto doesn't need changing because rc.sdata will be set to
NULL if the allocation failed

Hi Dominique,

Could you help paste some test result before-and-after the patch applied?
And I have a little suggestion in comments below.

We could set NULL for fcall_cache in case of use-after-free.

I'm glad to help testing, and actually I'm going to run some testcases in
xfs-test for 9p.

The only performance tests I did were sent to the list a couple of mails
earlier, you can find it here:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180730093101.GA7894@nautica

In particular, the results for benchmark on small writes just before and
after this patch, without KASAN (these are the same numbers as in the
link, hardware/setup is described there):
 - no alloc (4.18-rc7 request cache): 65.4k req/s
 - non-power of two alloc, no patch: 61.6k req/s
 - power of two alloc, no patch: 62.2k req/s
 - non-power of two alloc, with patch: 64.7k req/s
 - power of two alloc, with patch: 65.1k req/s

I'm rather happy with the result, I didn't expect using a dedicated
cache would bring this much back but it's certainly worth it.

Hmm, I understand where this comes from, but I'm not sure I agree.
If someone tries to access the client while/after it is freed things are
going to break anyway, I'd rather let things break as obviously as
possible than try to cover it up.

Setting NULL is not a big matter, and I will hear others' opinion.

Could you simplify this by initialising c->msize to 0 and then this
can simply be:

...

Is it possible for fcall_cache to be allocated before fcall_free is
called?  I'm concerned we might do this:

allocate message A
allocate message B
receive response A
allocate fcall_cache
receive response B

and then we'd call kmem_cache_free() for something allocated by kmalloc(),
which works with slab and slub, but doesn't work with slob (alas).

If we have slab merging turned off, or we have two mounts from servers
with different msizes, we'll end up with two slabs called 9p-fcall-cache.
I'm OK with that, but are you?

Hmm, this is rather tricky with the current flow of things;
p9_client_version() has multiple uses for that msize field.

Basically what happens is:
 - init client struct, set clip msize to mount option/transport-specific
max
 - p9_client_version() uses current c->msize to send a suggested value
to the server
 - p9_client_rpc() uses current c->msize to allocate that first rpc,
this is pretty much hard-coded and will be quite intrusive to make an
exception for
 - p9_client_version() looks at the msize the server suggested and clips
c->msize if the reply's is smaller than c->msize


I kind of agree it'd be nice to remove that check being done all the
time for just startup, but I don't see how to do this easily with the
current code.

Making p9_client_version take an extra argument would be easy but we'd
need to actually hardcode in p9_client_rpc that "if the message type is
TVERSION then use [page size or whatever] for allocation" and that kinds
of kills the point... The alternative being having p9_client_rpc takes
the actual size as argument itself but this once again is pretty
intrusive even if it could be done mechanically...

I'll think about this some more

Bleh, I checked this would work for slab and didn't really check
others..

This cannot happen right now because we only return the client struct
from p9_client_create after the first message is done (and, right now,
freed) but when we start adding refcounting to requests it'd be possible
to free the very first response after fcall_cache is allocated with a
"bad" server like syzcaller does sending the version reply before the
request came in.

I can't see any work-around around this other than storing how the fcall
was allocated in the struct itself though...
I guess I might as well do that now, unless you have a better idea.

Yeah, the reason I didn't make it global like p9_req_cache is precisely
to get two separate caches if the msizes are different.

I actually considered adding msize to the string with snprintf or
something but someone looking at it through slabinfo or similar will
have the sizes anyway so I don't think this would bring anything, do you
know if/think that tools will choke on multiple caches with the same
name?


I'm not sure about slab merging being disabled though, from the little I
understand I do not see why anyone would do that except for debugging,
and I'm fine with that.
Please let me know if I'm missing something though!


Thanks for the review,

Hmm... if the first allocation fails, we will kfree() req->rc.sdata.

Are we sure we won't have a stale pointer or uninitialized data in
there ?

And even if we don't with the current code base, this is fragile and
could be easily broken.

I think you should drop this hunk and rather rename p9_fcall_alloc() to
p9_fcall_alloc_sdata() instead, since this is what the function is
actually doing with this patch applied.

The patch looks good to me. It would need to be rebased when you have fixed
the potential kfree() of stale data in patch 1. Either with an extra goto
label in p9_tag_alloc or by turning p9_fcall_alloc into p9_fcall_alloc_sdata,
both solutions are equivalent.

Just one suggestion, see below.

This is a presumably hot path for any request but the initial TVERSION,

Yeah, Jun pointed that out and I have a v2 that only frees as needed
with an extra goto (I sent an incremental diff in my reply to his
comment here[1])

Hmm. I agree the naming isn't accurate, but even if we rename it we'll
need to pass a pointer to fcall as argument as it inits its capacity.
p9_fcall_init(fc, msize) might be simpler?

(I'm not sure I follow what you mean by 'drop this hunk', to be honest,
did you want a single function call to init both maybe?)

Ah yes you're right... alloc is a bit misleading then. I agree that
p9_fcall_init() is more appropriate in this case.

And maybe you should introduce p9_fcall_fini() or _release() for
completeness. It would only do kfree() for a start, but it would
then evolve to be like the p9_fcall_kfree() function from patch 2.

I was meaning "keep the same logic in p9_tag_alloc()", something like:

	req->tc.sdata = p9_fcall_alloc_sdata(&req->tc, alloc_msize);
	req->rc.sdata = p9_fcall_alloc_sdata(&req->tc, alloc_msize);
	if (!req->tc.sdata || !req->rc.sdata)

But I agree the way you did is cleaner.

c->fcall_cache is indeed very likely, but alloc_size == c->msize not so
much, as zc requests will be quite common for virtio and will be 4k in
size.
Although with that cache I'm starting to wonder if we should always use
it... Speed-wise if there is no memory pressure the cache is likely
going to be faster.
If there is pressure and the items are reclaimed though that'll bring
some heavier slow-down as it'll need to find bigger memory regions.

I'm not sure which path we should favor, tbh. I'll keep these separate
for now.


For the first part of the check, Matthew suggested trying to trick msize
into a different value to fail this check for the initial TVERSION call,
but even after thinking it a bit I don't really see how to do that
cleanly. I can at least make -that- likely()...

For this one I'll unfortunately need to store in the fc how it has been
allocated as slob doesn't allow to kmem_cache_free() a buffer allocated
by kmalloc and in prevision of refs being refcounted in a hostile world
the initial TVERSION req could be freed after fcall_cache is created :/

That's a bit of a burden but at least will reduce the checks to one here

for the quick review.

'msize' is often a power of two, or at least page-aligned, so avoiding
an overhead of two dozen bytes for each allocation will help the
allocator do its work and reduce memory fragmentation.

From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@cea.fr>

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
allocations a bit, especially in case of non-"round" msizes.

The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.

Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.

v2: 
 - Add a pointer to the cache in p9_fcall to make sure a buffer
allocated with kmalloc gets freed with kfree and vice-versa
This could have been smaller with a bool but this spares having
to look at the client so looked a bit cleaner, I'm expecting this
patch will need a v3 one way or another so I went for the bolder
approach - please say if you think a smaller item is better ; I *think*
nothing relies on this being ordered the same way as the data on the
wire (struct isn't packed anyway) so we can move id after tag and add
another u8 to not have any overhead

 - added likely() to cache existence check in allocation, but nothing
for msize check or free because of zc request being of different size

Well, my gut feeling that I'd need a v3 was right, after a bit more time
testing (slightly different setup), I got this warning:
Bad or missing usercopy whitelist? Kernel memory overwrite attempt
detected to SLUB object '9p-fcall-cache' (offset 23, size 55078)!

So this kmem_cache_create needs to change to kmem_cache_create_usercopy,
but I'm not sure how to best specify the range -- this warning was about
writing data to the buffer so a TWRITE:
size[4] Twrite tag[2] fid[4] offset[8] count[4] data[count]
(the data[count] part comes from user - this matches 4+1+2+4+8+4 = 23)

Similarily RREAD has data that can be copied to userspace, which has a
similar check:
size[4] Rread tag[2] count[4] data[count]

So I could hardcode offset = 4+1+2+4=11, usercopy size = msize - 11...


We have some P9_*HDR*SZ macros but none are really appropriate:
---
/* ample room for Twrite/Rread header */
#define P9_IOHDRSZ      24

/* Room for readdir header */
#define P9_READDIRHDRSZ 24

/* size of header for zero copy read/write */
#define P9_ZC_HDR_SZ 4096
---

It's actually been bugging me for a while that I see hardcoded '7's for
9p main header size (len + msg type + tag) everywhere, I could add a
first P9_HDRSZ of 7 and use that + 4?

Shouldn't this be p9_fcall_fini(&req->rc) ?

The rest looks good, so, with that fixed, you can add:

Right, I failed at bookkeeping, I changed that in the next patch but it
should have been done now.
Will add p9_fcall_fini to headers/export in this patch instead of the
next

From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@cea.fr>

'msize' is often a power of two, or at least page-aligned, so avoiding
an overhead of two dozen bytes for each allocation will help the
allocator do its work and reduce memory fragmentation.

v2:
 - Add extra label to not free uninitialized memory on alloc failure
 - Rename p9_fcall_alloc to 9p_fcall_init
 - Add a p9_fcall_fini function to echo to init

v3:
 - use p9_call_fini() in rdma_request() instead of kfree, the code
was in the following patch in previous version

From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@cea.fr>

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
allocations a bit, especially in case of non-"round" msizes.

The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.

Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.

v2:
 - Add a pointer to the cache in p9_fcall to make sure a buffer
allocated with kmalloc gets freed with kfree and vice-versa
This could have been smaller with a bool but this spares having
to look at the client so looked a bit cleaner, I'm expecting this
patch will need a v3 one way or another so I went for the bolder
approach - please say if you think a smaller item is better ; I *think*
nothing relies on this being ordered the same way as the data on the
wire (struct isn't packed anyway) so we can move id after tag and add
another u8 to not have any overhead

 - added likely() to cache existence check in allocation, but nothing
for msize check or free because of zc request being of different size

v3:
 - defined the userdata region in the cache, as read or write calls can
access the buffer directly (lead to warnings with HARDENED_USERCOPY=y)



I didn't get any comment on v2 for this patch, but I'm still not fully
happy with this in all honesty.

Part of me believes we might be better off always allocating from the
cache even for zero-copy headers, it's a waste of space but the buffers
are there and being reused constantly for non-zc calls, and mixing
kmallocs in could lead to these buffers being really freed and
reallocated all the time instead of reusing the slab buffers
continuously.

That would let me move the likely() for the fast path, with the only
exception being the TVERSION initial call on mount, for which I still
don't have any nice idea on how to handle, using a different size in
p9_client_rpc or prepare_req if the type is TVERSION and I'm really not
happy with that...

Hi Dominique,

Could you help paste the test result of before-after-applied this patch in
comment? And please see my comments below.

I'm afraid that we should check NULL for clnt->fcall_cache.

Thanks,

Thanks the the review, do you mean the commit message?

I'll add the summary I wrote in reply to your question a few mails
before.

hm I didn't want to repeat size, but I guess people do refer to that
field as size.
I'll actually rewrite it as:
 Minimal header size: size[4] type[1] tag[2]

kmem_cache_destroy() in mm/slab_common.c does the null check for us:
------
void kmem_cache_destroy(struct kmem_cache *s)
{
        int err;
        
        if (unlikely(!s))
                return;
------

It looks better.
