Hi all:

This series try to fix several issues introduced by meta data
accelreation series. Please review.

Changes from V4:
- switch to use spinlock synchronize MMU notifier with accessors

Changes from V3:
- remove the unnecessary patch

Changes from V2:
- use seqlck helper to synchronize MMU notifier with vhost worker

Changes from V1:
- try not use RCU to syncrhonize MMU notifier with vhost worker
- set dirty pages after no readers
- return -EAGAIN only when we find the range is overlapped with
  metadata

Jason Wang (9):
  vhost: don't set uaddr for invalid address
  vhost: validate MMU notifier registration
  vhost: fix vhost map leak
  vhost: reset invalidate_count in vhost_set_vring_num_addr()
  vhost: mark dirty pages during map uninit
  vhost: don't do synchronize_rcu() in vhost_uninit_vq_maps()
  vhost: do not use RCU to synchronize MMU notifier with worker
  vhost: correctly set dirty pages in MMU notifiers callback
  vhost: do not return -EAGAIN for non blocking invalidation too early

We should not setup uaddr for the invalid address, otherwise we may
try to pin or prefetch mapping of wrong pages.

The return value of mmu_notifier_register() is not checked in
vhost_vring_set_num_addr(). This will cause an out of sync between mm
and MMU notifier thus a double free. To solve this, introduce a
boolean flag to track whether MMU notifier is registered and only do
unregistering when it was true.

We don't free map during vhost_map_unprefetch(). This means it could
be leaked. Fixing by free the map.

The vhost_set_vring_num_addr() could be called in the middle of
invalidate_range_start() and invalidate_range_end(). If we don't reset
invalidate_count after the un-registering of MMU notifier, the
invalidate_cont will run out of sync (e.g never reach zero). This will
in fact disable the fast accessor path. Fixing by reset the count to
zero.

We don't mark dirty pages if the map was teared down outside MMU
notifier. This will lead untracked dirty pages. Fixing by marking
dirty pages during map uninit.

There's no need for RCU synchronization in vhost_uninit_vq_maps()
since we've already serialized with readers (memory accessors). This
also avoid the possible userspace DOS through ioctl() because of the
possible high latency caused by synchronize_rcu().

We used to use RCU to synchronize MMU notifier with worker. This leads
calling synchronize_rcu() in invalidate_range_start(). But on a busy
system, there would be many factors that may slow down the
synchronize_rcu() which makes it unsuitable to be called in MMU
notifier. This path switch to use a simple spinlock to do the
synchronization.

Benchmark was done through testpmd + vhost_net + XDP_DROP on
tap. Compare to copy_{to|from}_user() path, on Sandy Bridge (without
SMAP support), 1.5% PPS improvement was measured; on Broadwell (with
SMAP and enabled), 14% PPS improvement was measured.

This means we are not as fast as what 7f466032dc9e did because the
spinlock overhead in the datapath. This needs to be addressed in the
future.

We need make sure there's no reference on the map before trying to
mark set dirty pages.

Instead of returning -EAGAIN unconditionally, we'd better do that only
we're sure the range is overlapped with the metadata area.

This generally looks more solid.

But this amounts to a significant overhaul of the code.

At this point how about we revert 7f466032dc9e5a61217f22ea34b2df932786bbfc
for this release, and then re-apply a corrected version
for the next one?

If possible, consider we've actually disabled the feature. How about 
just queued those patches for next release?

Thanks

I'm tossing this series while you and Michael decide how to move forward.

Sorry if I was unclear. My idea is that
1. I revert the disabled code
2. You send a patch readding it with all the fixes squashed
3. Maybe optimizations on top right away?
4. We queue *that* for next and see what happens.

And the advantage over the patchy approach is that the current patches
are hard to review. E.g.  it's not reasonable to ask RCU guys to review
the whole of vhost for RCU usage but it's much more reasonable to ask
about a specific patch.

I think there are other problems here too, I don't like that the use
of mmu notifiers is so different from every other driver, or that GUP
is called under spinlock.

So I favor the revert and try again approach as well. It is hard to
get a clear picture with these endless bug fix patches

What kind of issues do you see? Spinlock is to synchronize GUP with MMU 
notifier in this series.

Btw, back to the original question. May I know why synchronize_rcu() is 
not suitable? Consider:

- MMU notifier are allowed to sleep
- MMU notifier could be preempted

If you mean something that prevents RCU grace period from running. I'm 
afraid MMU notifier is not the only victim.  But it should be no more 
worse than some one is holding a lock for very long time. If the only 
concern is the preemption of vhost kthread, I can switch to use 
rcu_read_lock_bh() instead.

Thanks

A GUP that can't sleep can't pagefault which makes it a really weird
pattern

We already went over this. You'd need to determine it doesn't somehow
deadlock the mm on reclaim paths. Maybe it is OK, the rcq_gq_wq is
marked WQ_MEM_RECLAIM at least..

I also think Michael was concerned about the latency spikes a long RCU
delay would cause.

get_user_pages/get_user_pages_fast must not be called under a spinlock.
We have the somewhat misnamed __get_user_page_fast that just does a
lookup for existing pages and never faults for a few places that need
to do that lookup from contexts where we can't sleep.

My understanding is __get_user_pages_fast() assumes caller can fail or 
have fallback. And we have graceful fallback to copy_{to|from}_user().

Yes, will take a look at this.

I don't think it's a real problem consider MMU notifier could be 
preempted or blocked.

Yes, I do use __get_user_pages_fast() in the code.

My point is that if you can fall back to copy_user then it is weird to
call the special non-sleeping GUP under a spinlock.

AFAIK the only reason this is done is because of the way the notifier
is being locked...
