2020-06-02mm/memcg: automatically penalize tasks with high swap useJakub Kicinski
Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system from SWAP exhaustion. The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space). That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high. The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion. Hopefully without the need to find per-task hard limits. Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers or other protection mechanisms to react. oomd and earlyoom already do killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably. We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot path. The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway. Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full". Borrowing the explanation from Johannes: The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device, even after the swapin. A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without any IO. Trading disk space for IO. But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot). So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap slots on fault/swapin. Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM. We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is filled with redundant cache.

2020-06-02swap: reduce lock contention on swap cache from swap slots allocationHuang Ying
In some swap scalability test, it is found that there are heavy lock contention on swap cache even if we have split one swap cache radix tree per swap device to one swap cache radix tree every 64 MB trunk in commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"). The reason is as follow. After the swap device becomes fragmented so that there's no free swap cluster, the swap device will be scanned linearly to find the free swap slots. swap_info_struct->cluster_next is the next scanning base that is shared by all CPUs. So nearby free swap slots will be allocated for different CPUs. The probability for multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is high. This causes the lock contention on the swap cache. To solve the issue, in this patch, for SSD swap device, a percpu version next scanning base (cluster_next_cpu) is added. Every CPU will use its own per-cpu next scanning base. And after finishing scanning a 64MB trunk, the per-cpu scanning base will be changed to the beginning of another randomly selected 64MB trunk. In this way, the probability for multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is reduced greatly. Thus the lock contention is reduced too. For HDD, because sequential access is more important for IO performance, the original shared next scanning base is used. To test the patch, we have run 16-process pmbench memory benchmark on a 2-socket server machine with 48 cores. One ram disk is configured as the swap device per socket. The pmbench working-set size is much larger than the available memory so that swapping is triggered. The memory read/write ratio is 80/20 and the accessing pattern is random. In the original implementation, the lock contention on the swap cache is heavy. The perf profiling data of the lock contention code path is as following, _raw_spin_lock_irq.add_to_swap_cache.add_to_swap.shrink_page_list: 7.91 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.__remove_mapping.shrink_page_list: 7.11 _raw_spin_lock.swapcache_free_entries.free_swap_slot.__swap_entry_free: 2.51 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.swap_cgroup_record.mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap: 1.66 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 1.29 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages: 1.03 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 0.93 After applying this patch, it becomes, _raw_spin_lock.swapcache_free_entries.free_swap_slot.__swap_entry_free: 3.58 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 2.3 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.swap_cgroup_record.mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap: 2.26 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 1.8 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages: 1.19 The lock contention on the swap cache is almost eliminated. And the pmbench score increases 18.5%. The swapin throughput increases 18.7% from 2.96 GB/s to 3.51 GB/s. While the swapout throughput increases 18.5% from 2.99 GB/s to 3.54 GB/s. We need really fast disk to show the benefit. I have tried this on 2 Intel P3600 NVMe disks. The performance improvement is only about 1%. The improvement should be better on the faster disks, such as Intel Optane disk.

2020-06-02mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK insteadNeilBrown
After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a COMMIT request succeeds. If the COMMIT fails, the page will be re-written. These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a 'reclaimable' count. This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g. releasepage() used to send a COMMIT). However now that all writes generated by ->writepages() will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a875 ("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more sense to treat them as writeback pages. So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK. A particular effect of this change is that when wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do about them anyway). Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput. With this patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average. Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as zero. static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this counter no longer report it.

2020-06-02mm/writeback: replace PF_LESS_THROTTLE with PF_LOCAL_THROTTLENeilBrown
PF_LESS_THROTTLE exists for loop-back nfsd (and a similar need in the loop block driver and callers of prctl(PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER)), where a daemon needs to write to one bdi (the final bdi) in order to free up writes queued to another bdi (the client bdi). The daemon sets PF_LESS_THROTTLE and gets a larger allowance of dirty pages, so that it can still dirty pages after other processses have been throttled. The purpose of this is to avoid deadlock that happen when the PF_LESS_THROTTLE process must write for any dirty pages to be freed, but it is being thottled and cannot write. This approach was designed when all threads were blocked equally, independently on which device they were writing to, or how fast it was. Since that time the writeback algorithm has changed substantially with different threads getting different allowances based on non-trivial heuristics. This means the simple "add 25%" heuristic is no longer reliable. The important issue is not that the daemon needs a *larger* dirty page allowance, but that it needs a *private* dirty page allowance, so that dirty pages for the "client" bdi that it is helping to clear (the bdi for an NFS filesystem or loop block device etc) do not affect the throttling of the daemon writing to the "final" bdi. This patch changes the heuristic so that the task is not throttled when the bdi it is writing to has a dirty page count below below (or equal to) the free-run threshold for that bdi. This ensures it will always be able to have some pages in flight, and so will not deadlock. In a steady-state, it is expected that PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE tasks might still be throttled by global threshold, but that is acceptable as it is only the deadlock state that is interesting for this flag. This approach of "only throttle when target bdi is busy" is consistent with the other use of PF_LESS_THROTTLE in current_may_throttle(), were it causes attention to be focussed only on the target bdi. So this patch - renames PF_LESS_THROTTLE to PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE, - removes the 25% bonus that that flag gives, and - If PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE is set, don't delay at all unless the global and the local free-run thresholds are exceeded. Note that previously realtime threads were treated the same as PF_LESS_THROTTLE threads. This patch does *not* change the behvaiour for real-time threads, so it is now different from the behaviour of nfsd and loop tasks. I don't know what is wanted for realtime.

2020-06-02include/linux/pagemap.h: introduce attach/detach_page_privateGuoqing Jiang
Patch series "Introduce attach/detach_page_private to cleanup code". This patch (of 10): The logic in attach_page_buffers and __clear_page_buffers are quite paired, but 1. they are located in different files. 2. attach_page_buffers is implemented in buffer_head.h, so it could be used by other files. But __clear_page_buffers is static function in buffer.c and other potential users can't call the function, md-bitmap even copied the function. So, introduce the new attach/detach_page_private to replace them. With the new pair of function, we will remove the usage of attach_page_buffers and __clear_page_buffers in next patches.

2020-06-02mm: move readahead prototypes from mm.hMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Patch series "Change readahead API", v11. This series adds a readahead address_space operation to replace the readpages operation. The key difference is that pages are added to the page cache as they are allocated (and then looked up by the filesystem) instead of passing them on a list to the readpages operation and having the filesystem add them to the page cache. It's a net reduction in code for each implementation, more efficient than walking a list, and solves the direct-write vs buffered-read problem reported by yu kuai at http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200116063601.39201-1-yukuai3@huawei.com The only unconverted filesystems are those which use fscache. Their conversion is pending Dave Howells' rewrite which will make the conversion substantially easier. This should be completed by the end of the year. I want to thank the reviewers/testers; Dave Chinner, John Hubbard, Eric Biggers, Johannes Thumshirn, Dave Sterba, Zi Yan, Christoph Hellwig and Miklos Szeredi have done a marvellous job of providing constructive criticism. These patches pass an xfstests run on ext4, xfs & btrfs with no regressions that I can tell (some of the tests seem a little flaky before and remain flaky afterwards). This patch (of 25): The readahead code is part of the page cache so should be found in the pagemap.h file. force_page_cache_readahead is only used within mm, so move it to mm/internal.h instead. Remove the parameter names where they add no value, and rename the ones which were actively misleading.

2020-06-02vfs: track per-sb writeback errors and report them to syncfsJeff Layton
Patch series "vfs: have syncfs() return error when there are writeback errors", v6. Currently, syncfs does not return errors when one of the inodes fails to be written back. It will return errors based on the legacy AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC flags when syncing out the block device fails, but that's not particularly helpful for filesystems that aren't backed by a blockdev. It's also possible for a stray sync to lose those errors. The basic idea in this set is to track writeback errors at the superblock level, so that we can quickly and easily check whether something bad happened without having to fsync each file individually. syncfs is then changed to reliably report writeback errors after they occur, much in the same fashion as fsync does now. This patch (of 2): Usually we suggest that applications call fsync when they want to ensure that all data written to the file has made it to the backing store, but that can be inefficient when there are a lot of open files. Calling syncfs on the filesystem can be more efficient in some situations, but the error reporting doesn't currently work the way most people expect. If a single inode on a filesystem reports a writeback error, syncfs won't necessarily return an error. syncfs only returns an error if __sync_blockdev fails, and on some filesystems that's a no-op. It would be better if syncfs reported an error if there were any writeback failures. Then applications could call syncfs to see if there are any errors on any open files, and could then call fsync on all of the other descriptors to figure out which one failed. This patch adds a new errseq_t to struct super_block, and has mapping_set_error also record writeback errors there. To report those errors, we also need to keep an errseq_t in struct file to act as a cursor. This patch adds a dedicated field for that purpose, which slots nicely into 4 bytes of padding at the end of struct file on x86_64. An earlier version of this patch used an O_PATH file descriptor to cue the kernel that the open file should track the superblock error and not the inode's writeback error. I think that API is just too weird though. This is simpler and should make syncfs error reporting "just work" even if someone is multiplexing fsync and syncfs on the same fds.

2020-06-02KEYS: Replace zero-length array with flexible-arrayGustavo A. R. Silva
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues. This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

It will be shown only when 'KDBDEBUG' is set, and the user can define an environment variable named 'KDBFLAGS' too. These are puzzling indeed. After communication with Daniel, it seems that 'KDBFLAGS' is a misfeature. So let's replace 'KDBFLAGS' with 'KDBDEBUG' to just show the value we wrote into.

2020-06-02virtio: force spec specified alignment on typesMichael S. Tsirkin
The ring element addresses are passed between components with different alignments assumptions. Thus, if guest/userspace selects a pointer and host then gets and dereferences it, we might need to decrease the compiler-selected alignment to prevent compiler on the host from assuming pointer is aligned. This actually triggers on ARM with -mabi=apcs-gnu - which is a deprecated configuration, but it seems safer to handle this generally. Note that userspace that allocates the memory is actually OK and does not need to be fixed, but userspace that gets it from guest or another process does need to be fixed. The later doesn't generally talk to the kernel so while it might be buggy it's not talking to the kernel in the buggy way - it's just using the header in the buggy way - so fixing header and asking userspace to recompile is the best we can do. I verified that the produced kernel binary on x86 is exactly identical before and after the change. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>

2020-06-01bpf: Add link-based BPF program attachment to network namespaceJakub Sitnicki
Extend bpf() syscall subcommands that operate on bpf_link, that is LINK_CREATE, LINK_UPDATE, OBJ_GET_INFO, to accept attach types tied to network namespaces (only flow dissector at the moment). Link-based and prog-based attachment can be used interchangeably, but only one can exist at a time. Attempts to attach a link when a prog is already attached directly, and the other way around, will be met with -EEXIST. Attempts to detach a program when link exists result in -EINVAL. Attachment of multiple links of same attach type to one netns is not supported with the intention to lift the restriction when a use-case presents itself. Because of that link create returns -E2BIG when trying to create another netns link, when one already exists. Link-based attachments to netns don't keep a netns alive by holding a ref to it. Instead links get auto-detached from netns when the latter is being destroyed, using a pernet pre_exit callback. When auto-detached, link lives in defunct state as long there are open FDs for it. -ENOLINK is returned if a user tries to update a defunct link. Because bpf_link to netns doesn't hold a ref to struct net, special care is taken when releasing, updating, or filling link info. The netns might be getting torn down when any of these link operations are in progress. That is why auto-detach and update/release/fill_info are synchronized by the same mutex. Also, link ops have to always check if auto-detach has not happened yet and if netns is still alive (refcnt > 0).

2020-06-01net: Introduce netns_bpf for BPF programs attached to netnsJakub Sitnicki
In order to: (1) attach more than one BPF program type to netns, or (2) support attaching BPF programs to netns with bpf_link, or (3) support multi-prog attach points for netns we will need to keep more state per netns than a single pointer like we have now for BPF flow dissector program. Prepare for the above by extracting netns_bpf that is part of struct net, for storing all state related to BPF programs attached to netns. Turn flow dissector callbacks for querying/attaching/detaching a program into generic ones that operate on netns_bpf. Next patch will move the generic callbacks into their own module. This is similar to how it is organized for cgroup with cgroup_bpf.

Shadow Call Stack (SCS): - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task that holds only return addresses. This protects function return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack. - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode, hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc). - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it too. - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y. CPU feature detection: - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system. - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has been extended.

2020-06-01bpf: Fix running sk_skb program types with ktlsJohn Fastabend
KTLS uses a stream parser to collect TLS messages and send them to the upper layer tls receive handler. This ensures the tls receiver has a full TLS header to parse when it is run. However, when a socket has BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_VERDICT program attached before KTLS is enabled we end up with two stream parsers running on the same socket. The result is both try to run on the same socket. First the KTLS stream parser runs and calls read_sock() which will tcp_read_sock which in turn calls tcp_rcv_skb(). This dequeues the skb from the sk_receive_queue. When this is done KTLS code then data_ready() callback which because we stacked KTLS on top of the bpf stream verdict program has been replaced with sk_psock_start_strp(). This will in turn kick the stream parser again and eventually do the same thing KTLS did above calling into tcp_rcv_skb() and dequeuing a skb from the sk_receive_queue. At this point the data stream is broke. Part of the stream was handled by the KTLS side some other bytes may have been handled by the BPF side. Generally this results in either missing data or more likely a "Bad Message" complaint from the kTLS receive handler as the BPF program steals some bytes meant to be in a TLS header and/or the TLS header length is no longer correct. We've already broke the idealized model where we can stack ULPs in any order with generic callbacks on the TX side to handle this. So in this patch we do the same thing but for RX side. We add a sk_psock_strp_enabled() helper so TLS can learn a BPF verdict program is running and add a tls_sw_has_ctx_rx() helper so BPF side can learn there is a TLS ULP on the socket. Then on BPF side we omit calling our stream parser to avoid breaking the data stream for the KTLS receiver. Then on the KTLS side we call BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_VERDICT once the KTLS receiver is done with the packet but before it posts the msg to userspace. This gives us symmetry between the TX and RX halfs and IMO makes it usable again. On the TX side we process packets in this order BPF -> TLS -> TCP and on the receive side in the reverse order TCP -> TLS -> BPF. Discovered while testing OpenSSL 3.0 Alpha2.0 release.

Add BPF_XDP_DEVMAP attach type for use with programs associated with a DEVMAP entry. Allow DEVMAPs to associate a program with a device entry by adding a bpf_prog.fd to 'struct bpf_devmap_val'. Values read show the program id, so the fd and id are a union. bpf programs can get access to the struct via vmlinux.h. The program associated with the fd must have type XDP with expected attach type BPF_XDP_DEVMAP. When a program is associated with a device index, the program is run on an XDP_REDIRECT and before the buffer is added to the per-cpu queue. At this point rxq data is still valid; the next patch adds tx device information allowing the prorgam to see both ingress and egress device indices. XDP generic is skb based and XDP programs do not work with skb's.

2020-06-01bpf: Implement BPF ring buffer and verifier support for itAndrii Nakryiko
This commit adds a new MPSC ring buffer implementation into BPF ecosystem, which allows multiple CPUs to submit data to a single shared ring buffer. On the consumption side, only single consumer is assumed. Motivation ---------- There are two distinctive motivators for this work, which are not satisfied by existing perf buffer, which prompted creation of a new ring buffer implementation. - more efficient memory utilization by sharing ring buffer across CPUs; - preserving ordering of events that happen sequentially in time, even across multiple CPUs (e.g., fork/exec/exit events for a task). These two problems are independent, but perf buffer fails to satisfy both. Both are a result of a choice to have per-CPU perf ring buffer. Both can be also solved by having an MPSC implementation of ring buffer. The ordering problem could technically be solved for perf buffer with some in-kernel counting, but given the first one requires an MPSC buffer, the same solution would solve the second problem automatically. Semantics and APIs ------------------ Single ring buffer is presented to BPF programs as an instance of BPF map of type BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF. Two other alternatives considered, but ultimately rejected. One way would be to, similar to BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY, make BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF could represent an array of ring buffers, but not enforce "same CPU only" rule. This would be more familiar interface compatible with existing perf buffer use in BPF, but would fail if application needed more advanced logic to lookup ring buffer by arbitrary key. HASH_OF_MAPS addresses this with current approach. Additionally, given the performance of BPF ringbuf, many use cases would just opt into a simple single ring buffer shared among all CPUs, for which current approach would be an overkill. Another approach could introduce a new concept, alongside BPF map, to represent generic "container" object, which doesn't necessarily have key/value interface with lookup/update/delete operations. This approach would add a lot of extra infrastructure that has to be built for observability and verifier support. It would also add another concept that BPF developers would have to familiarize themselves with, new syntax in libbpf, etc. But then would really provide no additional benefits over the approach of using a map. BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF doesn't support lookup/update/delete operations, but so doesn't few other map types (e.g., queue and stack; array doesn't support delete, etc). The approach chosen has an advantage of re-using existing BPF map infrastructure (introspection APIs in kernel, libbpf support, etc), being familiar concept (no need to teach users a new type of object in BPF program), and utilizing existing tooling (bpftool). For common scenario of using a single ring buffer for all CPUs, it's as simple and straightforward, as would be with a dedicated "container" object. On the other hand, by being a map, it can be combined with ARRAY_OF_MAPS and HASH_OF_MAPS map-in-maps to implement a wide variety of topologies, from one ring buffer for each CPU (e.g., as a replacement for perf buffer use cases), to a complicated application hashing/sharding of ring buffers (e.g., having a small pool of ring buffers with hashed task's tgid being a look up key to preserve order, but reduce contention). Key and value sizes are enforced to be zero. max_entries is used to specify the size of ring buffer and has to be a power of 2 value. There are a bunch of similarities between perf buffer (BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY) and new BPF ring buffer semantics: - variable-length records; - if there is no more space left in ring buffer, reservation fails, no blocking; - memory-mappable data area for user-space applications for ease of consumption and high performance; - epoll notifications for new incoming data; - but still the ability to do busy polling for new data to achieve the lowest latency, if necessary. BPF ringbuf provides two sets of APIs to BPF programs: - bpf_ringbuf_output() allows to *copy* data from one place to a ring buffer, similarly to bpf_perf_event_output(); - bpf_ringbuf_reserve()/bpf_ringbuf_commit()/bpf_ringbuf_discard() APIs split the whole process into two steps. First, a fixed amount of space is reserved. If successful, a pointer to a data inside ring buffer data area is returned, which BPF programs can use similarly to a data inside array/hash maps. Once ready, this piece of memory is either committed or discarded. Discard is similar to commit, but makes consumer ignore the record. bpf_ringbuf_output() has disadvantage of incurring extra memory copy, because record has to be prepared in some other place first. But it allows to submit records of the length that's not known to verifier beforehand. It also closely matches bpf_perf_event_output(), so will simplify migration significantly. bpf_ringbuf_reserve() avoids the extra copy of memory by providing a memory pointer directly to ring buffer memory. In a lot of cases records are larger than BPF stack space allows, so many programs have use extra per-CPU array as a temporary heap for preparing sample. bpf_ringbuf_reserve() avoid this needs completely. But in exchange, it only allows a known constant size of memory to be reserved, such that verifier can verify that BPF program can't access memory outside its reserved record space. bpf_ringbuf_output(), while slightly slower due to extra memory copy, covers some use cases that are not suitable for bpf_ringbuf_reserve(). The difference between commit and discard is very small. Discard just marks a record as discarded, and such records are supposed to be ignored by consumer code. Discard is useful for some advanced use-cases, such as ensuring all-or-nothing multi-record submission, or emulating temporary malloc()/free() within single BPF program invocation. Each reserved record is tracked by verifier through existing reference-tracking logic, similar to socket ref-tracking. It is thus impossible to reserve a record, but forget to submit (or discard) it. bpf_ringbuf_query() helper allows to query various properties of ring buffer. Currently 4 are supported: - BPF_RB_AVAIL_DATA returns amount of unconsumed data in ring buffer; - BPF_RB_RING_SIZE returns the size of ring buffer; - BPF_RB_CONS_POS/BPF_RB_PROD_POS returns current logical possition of consumer/producer, respectively. Returned values are momentarily snapshots of ring buffer state and could be off by the time helper returns, so this should be used only for debugging/reporting reasons or for implementing various heuristics, that take into account highly-changeable nature of some of those characteristics. One such heuristic might involve more fine-grained control over poll/epoll notifications about new data availability in ring buffer. Together with BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP/BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP flags for output/commit/discard helpers, it allows BPF program a high degree of control and, e.g., more efficient batched notifications. Default self-balancing strategy, though, should be adequate for most applications and will work reliable and efficiently already. Design and implementation ------------------------- This reserve/commit schema allows a natural way for multiple producers, either on different CPUs or even on the same CPU/in the same BPF program, to reserve independent records and work with them without blocking other producers. This means that if BPF program was interruped by another BPF program sharing the same ring buffer, they will both get a record reserved (provided there is enough space left) and can work with it and submit it independently. This applies to NMI context as well, except that due to using a spinlock during reservation, in NMI context, bpf_ringbuf_reserve() might fail to get a lock, in which case reservation will fail even if ring buffer is not full. The ring buffer itself internally is implemented as a power-of-2 sized circular buffer, with two logical and ever-increasing counters (which might wrap around on 32-bit architectures, that's not a problem): - consumer counter shows up to which logical position consumer consumed the data; - producer counter denotes amount of data reserved by all producers. Each time a record is reserved, producer that "owns" the record will successfully advance producer counter. At that point, data is still not yet ready to be consumed, though. Each record has 8 byte header, which contains the length of reserved record, as well as two extra bits: busy bit to denote that record is still being worked on, and discard bit, which might be set at commit time if record is discarded. In the latter case, consumer is supposed to skip the record and move on to the next one. Record header also encodes record's relative offset from the beginning of ring buffer data area (in pages). This allows bpf_ringbuf_commit()/bpf_ringbuf_discard() to accept only the pointer to the record itself, without requiring also the pointer to ring buffer itself. Ring buffer memory location will be restored from record metadata header. This significantly simplifies verifier, as well as improving API usability. Producer counter increments are serialized under spinlock, so there is a strict ordering between reservations. Commits, on the other hand, are completely lockless and independent. All records become available to consumer in the order of reservations, but only after all previous records where already committed. It is thus possible for slow producers to temporarily hold off submitted records, that were reserved later. Reservation/commit/consumer protocol is verified by litmus tests in Documentation/litmus-test/bpf-rb. One interesting implementation bit, that significantly simplifies (and thus speeds up as well) implementation of both producers and consumers is how data area is mapped twice contiguously back-to-back in the virtual memory. This allows to not take any special measures for samples that have to wrap around at the end of the circular buffer data area, because the next page after the last data page would be first data page again, and thus the sample will still appear completely contiguous in virtual memory. See comment and a simple ASCII diagram showing this visually in bpf_ringbuf_area_alloc(). Another feature that distinguishes BPF ringbuf from perf ring buffer is a self-pacing notifications of new data being availability. bpf_ringbuf_commit() implementation will send a notification of new record being available after commit only if consumer has already caught up right up to the record being committed. If not, consumer still has to catch up and thus will see new data anyways without needing an extra poll notification. Benchmarks (see tools/testing/selftests/bpf/benchs/bench_ringbuf.c) show that this allows to achieve a very high throughput without having to resort to tricks like "notify only every Nth sample", which are necessary with perf buffer. For extreme cases, when BPF program wants more manual control of notifications, commit/discard/output helpers accept BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP and BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP flags, which give full control over notifications of data availability, but require extra caution and diligence in using this API. Comparison to alternatives -------------------------- Before considering implementing BPF ring buffer from scratch existing alternatives in kernel were evaluated, but didn't seem to meet the needs. They largely fell into few categores: - per-CPU buffers (perf, ftrace, etc), which don't satisfy two motivations outlined above (ordering and memory consumption); - linked list-based implementations; while some were multi-producer designs, consuming these from user-space would be very complicated and most probably not performant; memory-mapping contiguous piece of memory is simpler and more performant for user-space consumers; - io_uring is SPSC, but also requires fixed-sized elements. Naively turning SPSC queue into MPSC w/ lock would have subpar performance compared to locked reserve + lockless commit, as with BPF ring buffer. Fixed sized elements would be too limiting for BPF programs, given existing BPF programs heavily rely on variable-sized perf buffer already; - specialized implementations (like a new printk ring buffer, [0]) with lots of printk-specific limitations and implications, that didn't seem to fit well for intended use with BPF programs.
