vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

#include <linux/mutex.h>
#include <linux/workqueue.h>
#include <linux/file.h>
include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Ring size is a hint from device about a burst size it can tolerate. Based on benchmarks, set the weight to 2 * vq size. To evaluate this change, another tests were done using netperf(RR, TX) between two machines with Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6133 CPU @ 2.50GHz, and vq size was tweaked through qemu.

vhost-net: support VIRTIO_F_RING_RESET Add VIRTIO_F_RING_RESET, which indicates that the driver can reset a queue individually. VIRTIO_F_RING_RESET feature is added to virtio-spec 1.2. The relevant information is in oasis-tcs/virtio-spec#124 oasis-tcs/virtio-spec#139 The implementation only adds the feature bit in supported features. It does not require any other changes because we reuse the existing vhost protocol. The virtqueue reset process can be concluded as two parts: 1. The driver can reset a virtqueue. When it is triggered, we use the set_backend to disable the virtqueue. 2. After the virtqueue is disabled, the driver may optionally re-enable it. The process is basically similar to when the device is started, except that the restart process does not need to set features and set mem table since they do not change. QEMU will send messages containing size, base, addr, kickfd and callfd of the virtqueue in order. Specifically, the host kernel will receive these messages in order: a. VHOST_SET_VRING_NUM b. VHOST_SET_VRING_BASE c. VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR d. VHOST_SET_VRING_KICK e. VHOST_SET_VRING_CALL f. VHOST_NET_SET_BACKEND Finally, after we use set_backend to attach the virtqueue, the virtqueue will be enabled and start to work.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer sockets through msg_control of sendmsg(). When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future. This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per sendmsg() way. Doing testpmd on various setups gives us: Test /+pps% XDP_DROP on TAP /+44.8% XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29% macvtap (skb) /+26% Netperf tests shows obvious improvements for small packet transmission: size/session/+thu%/+normalize% 64/ 1/ +2%/ 0% 64/ 2/ +3%/ +1% 64/ 4/ +7%/ +5% 64/ 8/ +8%/ +6% 256/ 1/ +3%/ 0% 256/ 2/ +10%/ +7% 256/ 4/ +26%/ +22% 256/ 8/ +27%/ +23% 512/ 1/ +3%/ +2% 512/ 2/ +19%/ +14% 512/ 4/ +43%/ +40% 512/ 8/ +45%/ +41% 1024/ 1/ +4%/ 0% 1024/ 2/ +27%/ +21% 1024/ 4/ +38%/ +73% 1024/ 8/ +15%/ +24% 2048/ 1/ +10%/ +7% 2048/ 2/ +16%/ +12% 2048/ 4/ 0%/ +2% 2048/ 8/ 0%/ +2% 4096/ 1/ +36%/ +60% 4096/ 2/ -11%/ -26% 4096/ 4/ 0%/ +14% 4096/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 16384/ 1/ -1%/ +5% 16384/ 2/ 0%/ +2% 16384/ 4/ 0%/ -3% 16384/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 65535/ 1/ 0%/ +10% 65535/ 2/ 0%/ +8% 65535/ 4/ 0%/ +1% 65535/ 8/ 0%/ +3% Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array() The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This patch replaces cases of: kmalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own implementation of kmalloc(). The Coccinelle script used for this was: // Fix redundant parens around sizeof(). @@ type TYPE; expression THING, E; @@ ( kmalloc( - (sizeof(TYPE)) * E + sizeof(TYPE) * E , ...) | kmalloc( - (sizeof(THING)) * E + sizeof(THING) * E , ...) ) // Drop single-byte sizes and redundant parens. @@ expression COUNT;

vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer sockets through msg_control of sendmsg(). When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future. This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per sendmsg() way. Doing testpmd on various setups gives us: Test /+pps% XDP_DROP on TAP /+44.8% XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29% macvtap (skb) /+26% Netperf tests shows obvious improvements for small packet transmission: size/session/+thu%/+normalize% 64/ 1/ +2%/ 0% 64/ 2/ +3%/ +1% 64/ 4/ +7%/ +5% 64/ 8/ +8%/ +6% 256/ 1/ +3%/ 0% 256/ 2/ +10%/ +7% 256/ 4/ +26%/ +22% 256/ 8/ +27%/ +23% 512/ 1/ +3%/ +2% 512/ 2/ +19%/ +14% 512/ 4/ +43%/ +40% 512/ 8/ +45%/ +41% 1024/ 1/ +4%/ 0% 1024/ 2/ +27%/ +21% 1024/ 4/ +38%/ +73% 1024/ 8/ +15%/ +24% 2048/ 1/ +10%/ +7% 2048/ 2/ +16%/ +12% 2048/ 4/ 0%/ +2% 2048/ 8/ 0%/ +2% 4096/ 1/ +36%/ +60% 4096/ 2/ -11%/ -26% 4096/ 4/ 0%/ +14% 4096/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 16384/ 1/ -1%/ +5% 16384/ 2/ 0%/ +2% 16384/ 4/ 0%/ -3% 16384/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 65535/ 1/ 0%/ +10% 65535/ 2/ 0%/ +8% 65535/ 4/ 0%/ +1% 65535/ 8/ 0%/ +3% Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

vhost_net: Avoid tx vring kicks during busyloop Under heavy load vhost busypoll may run without suppressing notification. For example tx zerocopy callback can push tx work while handle_tx() is running, then busyloop exits due to vhost_has_work() condition and enables notification but immediately reenters handle_tx() because the pushed work was tx. In this case handle_tx() tries to disable notification again, but when using event_idx it by design cannot. Then busyloop will run without suppressing notification. Another example is the case where handle_tx() tries to enable notification but avail idx is advanced so disables it again. This case also leads to the same situation with event_idx. The problem is that once we enter this situation busyloop does not work under heavy load for considerable amount of time, because notification is likely to happen during busyloop and handle_tx() immediately enables notification after notification happens. Specifically busyloop detects notification by vhost_has_work() and then handle_tx() calls vhost_enable_notify(). Because the detected work was the tx work, it enters handle_tx(), and enters busyloop without suppression again. This is likely to be repeated, so with event_idx we are almost not able to suppress notification in this case. To fix this, poll the work instead of enabling notification when busypoll is interrupted by something. IMHO vhost_has_work() is kind of interruption rather than a signal to completely cancel the busypoll, so let's run busypoll after the necessary work is done.

vhost_net: Avoid tx vring kicks during busyloop Under heavy load vhost busypoll may run without suppressing notification. For example tx zerocopy callback can push tx work while handle_tx() is running, then busyloop exits due to vhost_has_work() condition and enables notification but immediately reenters handle_tx() because the pushed work was tx. In this case handle_tx() tries to disable notification again, but when using event_idx it by design cannot. Then busyloop will run without suppressing notification. Another example is the case where handle_tx() tries to enable notification but avail idx is advanced so disables it again. This case also leads to the same situation with event_idx. The problem is that once we enter this situation busyloop does not work under heavy load for considerable amount of time, because notification is likely to happen during busyloop and handle_tx() immediately enables notification after notification happens. Specifically busyloop detects notification by vhost_has_work() and then handle_tx() calls vhost_enable_notify(). Because the detected work was the tx work, it enters handle_tx(), and enters busyloop without suppression again. This is likely to be repeated, so with event_idx we are almost not able to suppress notification in this case. To fix this, poll the work instead of enabling notification when busypoll is interrupted by something. IMHO vhost_has_work() is kind of interruption rather than a signal to completely cancel the busypoll, so let's run busypoll after the necessary work is done.

vhost_net: do not stall on zerocopy depletion Vhost-net has a hard limit on the number of zerocopy skbs in flight. When reached, transmission stalls. Stalls cause latency, as well as head-of-line blocking of other flows that do not use zerocopy. Instead of stalling, revert to copy-based transmission. Tested by sending two udp flows from guest to host, one with payload of VHOST_GOODCOPY_LEN, the other too small for zerocopy (1B). The large flow is redirected to a netem instance with 1MBps rate limit and deep 1000 entry queue. modprobe ifb ip link set dev ifb0 up tc qdisc add dev ifb0 root netem limit 1000 rate 1MBit tc qdisc add dev tap0 ingress tc filter add dev tap0 parent ffff: protocol ip \ u32 match ip dport 8000 0xffff \ action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0 Before the delay, both flows process around 80K pps. With the delay, before this patch, both process around 400. After this patch, the large flow is still rate limited, while the small reverts to its original rate. See also discussion in the first link, below. Without rate limiting, {1, 10, 100}x TCP_STREAM tests continued to send at 100% zerocopy. The limit in vhost_exceeds_maxpend must be carefully chosen. With vq->num >> 1, the flows remain correlated. This value happens to correspond to VHOST_MAX_PENDING for vq->num == 256. Allow smaller fractions and ensure correctness also for much smaller values of vq->num, by testing the min() of both explicitly. See also the discussion in the second link below.

When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future. This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per sendmsg() way.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost-net: set packet weight of tx polling to 2 * vq size handle_tx will delay rx for tens or even hundreds of milliseconds when tx busy polling udp packets with small length(e.g. 1byte udp payload), because setting VHOST_NET_WEIGHT takes into account only sent-bytes but no single packet length. Ping-Latencies shown below were tested between two Virtual Machines using netperf (UDP_STREAM, len=1), and then another machine pinged the client: vq size=256 Packet-Weight Ping-Latencies(millisecond) min avg max Origin 3.319 18.489 57.303 64 1.643 2.021 2.552 128 1.825 2.600 3.224 256 1.997 2.710 4.295 512 1.860 3.171 4.631 1024 2.002 4.173 9.056 2048 2.257 5.650 9.688 4096 2.093 8.508 15.943 vq size=512 Packet-Weight Ping-Latencies(millisecond) min avg max Origin 6.537 29.177 66.245 64 2.798 3.614 4.403 128 2.861 3.820 4.775 256 3.008 4.018 4.807 512 3.254 4.523 5.824 1024 3.079 5.335 7.747 2048 3.944 8.201 12.762 4096 4.158 11.057 19.985 Seems pretty consistent, a small dip at 2 VQ sizes. Ring size is a hint from device about a burst size it can tolerate. Based on benchmarks, set the weight to 2 * vq size. To evaluate this change, another tests were done using netperf(RR, TX) between two machines with Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6133 CPU @ 2.50GHz, and vq size was tweaked through qemu.

vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer sockets through msg_control of sendmsg(). When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost_net: Avoid tx vring kicks during busyloop Under heavy load vhost busypoll may run without suppressing notification. For example tx zerocopy callback can push tx work while handle_tx() is running, then busyloop exits due to vhost_has_work() condition and enables notification but immediately reenters handle_tx() because the pushed work was tx. In this case handle_tx() tries to disable notification again, but when using event_idx it by design cannot. Then busyloop will run without suppressing notification. Another example is the case where handle_tx() tries to enable notification but avail idx is advanced so disables it again. This case also leads to the same situation with event_idx. The problem is that once we enter this situation busyloop does not work under heavy load for considerable amount of time, because notification is likely to happen during busyloop and handle_tx() immediately enables notification after notification happens. Specifically busyloop detects notification by vhost_has_work() and then handle_tx() calls vhost_enable_notify(). Because the detected work was the tx work, it enters handle_tx(), and enters busyloop without suppression again. This is likely to be repeated, so with event_idx we are almost not able to suppress notification in this case. To fix this, poll the work instead of enabling notification when busypoll is interrupted by something. IMHO vhost_has_work() is kind of interruption rather than a signal to completely cancel the busypoll, so let's run busypoll after the necessary work is done.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer sockets through msg_control of sendmsg(). When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future. This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per sendmsg() way. Doing testpmd on various setups gives us: Test /+pps% XDP_DROP on TAP /+44.8% XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29% macvtap (skb) /+26% Netperf tests shows obvious improvements for small packet transmission: size/session/+thu%/+normalize% 64/ 1/ +2%/ 0% 64/ 2/ +3%/ +1% 64/ 4/ +7%/ +5% 64/ 8/ +8%/ +6% 256/ 1/ +3%/ 0% 256/ 2/ +10%/ +7% 256/ 4/ +26%/ +22% 256/ 8/ +27%/ +23% 512/ 1/ +3%/ +2% 512/ 2/ +19%/ +14% 512/ 4/ +43%/ +40% 512/ 8/ +45%/ +41% 1024/ 1/ +4%/ 0% 1024/ 2/ +27%/ +21% 1024/ 4/ +38%/ +73% 1024/ 8/ +15%/ +24% 2048/ 1/ +10%/ +7% 2048/ 2/ +16%/ +12% 2048/ 4/ 0%/ +2% 2048/ 8/ 0%/ +2% 4096/ 1/ +36%/ +60% 4096/ 2/ -11%/ -26% 4096/ 4/ 0%/ +14% 4096/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 16384/ 1/ -1%/ +5% 16384/ 2/ 0%/ +2% 16384/ 4/ 0%/ -3% 16384/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 65535/ 1/ 0%/ +10% 65535/ 2/ 0%/ +8% 65535/ 4/ 0%/ +1% 65535/ 8/ 0%/ +3% Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful semantic __GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests. Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example) - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_ attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more aggressive reclaim - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when the request is a performance optimization and there is another fallback for a slow path. - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) - non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh context with an expensive slow path fallback. - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently). - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer is not invoked. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer won't be triggered. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed. This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders. Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL because they already had their semantic. No new users are added. __alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point. This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array() The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This patch replaces cases of: kmalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own implementation of kmalloc(). The Coccinelle script used for this was: // Fix redundant parens around sizeof(). @@ type TYPE; expression THING, E; @@ ( kmalloc( - (sizeof(TYPE)) * E + sizeof(TYPE) * E , ...) | kmalloc( - (sizeof(THING)) * E + sizeof(THING) * E , ...) ) // Drop single-byte sizes and redundant parens. @@ expression COUNT;

vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer sockets through msg_control of sendmsg(). When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future. This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per sendmsg() way.

vhost: fix OOB in get_rx_bufs() After batched used ring updating was introduced in commit e2b3b35eb989 ("vhost_net: batch used ring update in rx"). We tend to batch heads in vq->heads for more than one packet.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer sockets through msg_control of sendmsg(). When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future. This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per sendmsg() way. Doing testpmd on various setups gives us: Test /+pps% XDP_DROP on TAP /+44.8% XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29% macvtap (skb) /+26% Netperf tests shows obvious improvements for small packet transmission: size/session/+thu%/+normalize% 64/ 1/ +2%/ 0% 64/ 2/ +3%/ +1% 64/ 4/ +7%/ +5% 64/ 8/ +8%/ +6% 256/ 1/ +3%/ 0% 256/ 2/ +10%/ +7% 256/ 4/ +26%/ +22% 256/ 8/ +27%/ +23% 512/ 1/ +3%/ +2% 512/ 2/ +19%/ +14% 512/ 4/ +43%/ +40% 512/ 8/ +45%/ +41% 1024/ 1/ +4%/ 0% 1024/ 2/ +27%/ +21% 1024/ 4/ +38%/ +73% 1024/ 8/ +15%/ +24% 2048/ 1/ +10%/ +7% 2048/ 2/ +16%/ +12% 2048/ 4/ 0%/ +2% 2048/ 8/ 0%/ +2% 4096/ 1/ +36%/ +60% 4096/ 2/ -11%/ -26% 4096/ 4/ 0%/ +14% 4096/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 16384/ 1/ -1%/ +5% 16384/ 2/ 0%/ +2% 16384/ 4/ 0%/ -3% 16384/ 8/ 0%/ +4% 65535/ 1/ 0%/ +10% 65535/ 2/ 0%/ +8% 65535/ 4/ 0%/ +1% 65535/ 8/ 0%/ +3% Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

net: make getname() functions return length rather than use int* parameter Changes since v1: Added changes in these files: drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_transport.c drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/lib-socket.c drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_login.c drivers/vhost/net.c fs/dlm/lowcomms.c fs/ocfs2/cluster/tcp.c security/tomoyo/network.c Before: All these functions either return a negative error indicator, or store length of sockaddr into "int *socklen" parameter and return zero on success. "int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value it does not need. None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it. This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success, return length of sockaddr. It's always >= 0 and can be differentiated from an error. Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err < 0)", where needed. rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &buflen and subsequently not used in any way.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work().

.open = vhost_net_open,
llseek: automatically add .llseek fop All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.
