sys_membarrier(): system-wide memory barrier (generic, x86)
Here is an implementation of a new system call, sys_membarrier(), which executes a memory barrier on all threads running on the system. It is implemented by calling synchronize_sched(). It can be used to distribute the cost of user-space memory barriers asymmetrically by transforming pairs of memory barriers into pairs consisting of sys_membarrier() and a compiler barrier. For synchronization primitives that distinguish between read-side and write-side (e.g. userspace RCU [1], rwlocks), the read-side can be accelerated significantly by moving the bulk of the memory barrier overhead to the write-side. The existing applications of which I am aware that would be improved by this system call are as follows: * Through Userspace RCU library (http://urcu.so) - DNS server (Knot DNS) https://www.knot-dns.cz/ - Network sniffer (http://netsniff-ng.org/) - Distributed object storage (https://sheepdog.github.io/sheepdog/) - User-space tracing (http://lttng.org) - Network storage system (https://www.gluster.org/) - Virtual routers (https://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/DPDK_RCU_0MQ.pdf) - Financial software (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/23/189) Those projects use RCU in userspace to increase read-side speed and scalability compared to locking. Especially in the case of RCU used by libraries, sys_membarrier can speed up the read-side by moving the bulk of the memory barrier cost to synchronize_rcu(). * Direct users of sys_membarrier - core dotnet garbage collector (https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/198) Microsoft core dotnet GC developers are planning to use the mprotect() side-effect of issuing memory barriers through IPIs as a way to implement Windows FlushProcessWriteBuffers() on Linux. They are referring to sys_membarrier in their github thread, specifically stating that sys_membarrier() is what they are looking for. To explain the benefit of this scheme, let's introduce two example threads: Thread A (non-frequent, e.g. executing liburcu synchronize_rcu()) Thread B (frequent, e.g. executing liburcu rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock()) In a scheme where all smp_mb() in thread A are ordering memory accesses with respect to smp_mb() present in Thread B, we can change each smp_mb() within Thread A into calls to sys_membarrier() and each smp_mb() within Thread B into compiler barriers "barrier()". Before the change, we had, for each smp_mb() pairs: Thread A Thread B previous mem accesses previous mem accesses smp_mb() smp_mb() following mem accesses following mem accesses After the change, these pairs become: Thread A Thread B prev mem accesses prev mem accesses sys_membarrier() barrier() follow mem accesses follow mem accesses As we can see, there are two possible scenarios: either Thread B memory accesses do not happen concurrently with Thread A accesses (1), or they do (2). 1) Non-concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses: Thread A Thread B prev mem accesses sys_membarrier() follow mem accesses prev mem accesses barrier() follow mem accesses In this case, thread B accesses will be weakly ordered. This is OK, because at that point, thread A is not particularly interested in ordering them with respect to its own accesses. 2) Concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses Thread A Thread B prev mem accesses prev mem accesses sys_membarrier() barrier() follow mem accesses follow mem accesses In this case, thread B accesses, which are ensured to be in program order thanks to the compiler barrier, will be "upgraded" to full smp_mb() by synchronize_sched(). * Benchmarks On Intel Xeon E5405 (8 cores) (one thread is calling sys_membarrier, the other 7 threads are busy looping) 1000 non-expedited sys_membarrier calls in 33s =3D 33 milliseconds/call. * User-space user of this system call: Userspace RCU library Both the signal-based and the sys_membarrier userspace RCU schemes permit us to remove the memory barrier from the userspace RCU rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() primitives, thus significantly accelerating them. These memory barriers are replaced by compiler barriers on the read-side, and all matching memory barriers on the write-side are turned into an invocation of a memory barrier on all active threads in the process. By letting the kernel perform this synchronization rather than dumbly sending a signal to every process threads (as we currently do), we diminish the number of unnecessary wake ups and only issue the memory barriers on active threads. Non-running threads do not need to execute such barrier anyway, because these are implied by the scheduler context switches. Results in liburcu: Operations in 10s, 6 readers, 2 writers: memory barriers in reader: 1701557485 reads, 2202847 writes signal-based scheme: 9830061167 reads, 6700 writes sys_membarrier: 9952759104 reads, 425 writes sys_membarrier (dyn. check): 7970328887 reads, 425 writes The dynamic sys_membarrier availability check adds some overhead to the read-side compared to the signal-based scheme, but besides that, sys_membarrier slightly outperforms the signal-based scheme. However, this non-expedited sys_membarrier implementation has a much slower grace period than signal and memory barrier schemes. Besides diminishing the number of wake-ups, one major advantage of the membarrier system call over the signal-based scheme is that it does not need to reserve a signal. This plays much more nicely with libraries, and with processes injected into for tracing purposes, for which we cannot expect that signals will be unused by the application. An expedited version of this system call can be added later on to speed up the grace period. Its implementation will likely depend on reading the cpu_curr()->mm without holding each CPU's rq lock. This patch adds the system call to x86 and to asm-generic. [1] http://urcu.so membarrier(2) man page: MEMBARRIER(2) Linux Programmer's Manual MEMBARRIER(2) NAME membarrier - issue memory barriers on a set of threads SYNOPSIS #include <linux/membarrier.h> int membarrier(int cmd, int flags); DESCRIPTION The cmd argument is one of the following: MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY Query the set of supported commands. It returns a bitmask of supported commands. MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED Execute a memory barrier on all threads running on the system. Upon return from system call, the caller thread is ensured that all running threads have passed through a state where all memory accesses to user-space addresses match program order between entry to and return from the system call (non-running threads are de facto in such a state). This covers threads from all pro=E2=80=90 cesses running on the system. This command returns 0. The flags argument needs to be 0. For future extensions. All memory accesses performed in program order from each targeted thread is guaranteed to be ordered with respect to sys_membarrier(). If we use the semantic "barrier()" to represent a compiler barrier forcing memory accesses to be performed in program order across the barrier, and smp_mb() to represent explicit memory barriers forcing full memory ordering across the barrier, we have the following ordering table for each pair of barrier(), sys_membarrier() and smp_mb(): The pair ordering is detailed as (O: ordered, X: not ordered): barrier() smp_mb() sys_membarrier() barrier() X X O smp_mb() X O O sys_membarrier() O O O RETURN VALUE On success, these system calls return zero. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately. For a given command, with flags argument set to 0, this system call is guaranteed to always return the same value until reboot. ERRORS ENOSYS System call is not implemented. EINVAL Invalid arguments. Linux 2015-04-15 MEMBARRIER(2) Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Reviewed-by: Paul E.

The libnvdimm sub-system introduces, in addition to the libnvdimm-core,
4 drivers / enabling modules:
NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory devices
(NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface
table). After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers
"region" devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block device
(disk) interface to the memory.
PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of persistent
memory address ranges is re-worked to drive PMEM-namespaces emitted by
the libnvdimm-core. In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the
ability to assert that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all
the way through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent
media. See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().
BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through "Block
Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference of this
driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent memory is
mapped into system address space at any given point in time. Per-NVDIMM
windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access different
portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not support DAX.
BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss). The
sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do not know
they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's disk's rarely
ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly gets a CRC error
on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always silently. Until an
application is audited to be robust in the presence of sector-tearing
the usage of BTT is recommended.

libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devices
Most discovery/configuration of the nvdimm-subsystem is done via sysfs
attributes. However, some nvdimm_bus instances, particularly the
ACPI.NFIT bus, define a small set of messages that can be passed to the
platform. For convenience we derive the initial libnvdimm-ioctl command
formats directly from the NFIT DSM Interface Example formats.
ND_CMD_SMART: media health and diagnostics
ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE: size of the label space
ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_DATA: read label space
ND_CMD_SET_CONFIG_DATA: write label space
ND_CMD_VENDOR: vendor-specific command passthrough
ND_CMD_ARS_CAP: report address-range-scrubbing capabilities
ND_CMD_ARS_START: initiate scrubbing
ND_CMD_ARS_STATUS: report on scrubbing state
ND_CMD_SMART_THRESHOLD: configure alarm thresholds for smart events
If a platform later defines different commands than this set it is
straightforward to extend support to those formats.
Most of the commands target a specific dimm. However, the
address-range-scrubbing commands target the bus. The 'commands'
attribute in sysfs of an nvdimm_bus, or nvdimm, enumerate the supported
commands for that object.

Add virtio gpu driver.
This patch adds a kms driver for the virtio gpu. The xorg modesetting driver can handle the device just fine, the framebuffer for fbcon is there too. Qemu patches for the host side are under review currently. The pci version of the device comes in two variants: with and without vga compatibility. The former has a extra memory bar for the vga framebuffer, the later is a pure virtio device. The only concern for this driver is that in the virtio-vga case we have to kick out the firmware framebuffer. Initial revision has only 2d support, 3d (virgl) support requires some more work on the qemu side and will be added later.

First set of new drivers, cleanups and functionality for IIO in the 4.1 cycle.
New drivers
* CM3323 color sensor.
* MS5611 pressure and temperature sensor.
New functionality
* mup6050 - create mux clients for devices described via ACPI. The reasoning
and approach taken in this patch are complex. Basically there is no
otherway of finding out what is there than by some esoteric look ups in
the ACPI data.
* cm3232 - PM support
* itg3200 - suspend/resume support
* mcp320x - add more ADCs to the kconfig to reflect what the driver supports
(this patch and the bindings got left behind when the support was added
a while back).
Docs / utils
* ti-adc128s052 - DT bindings.
* mcp3422 - DT bindings.
* mcp320x - DT bindings
* ABI docs for event threshold scale attributes, in_magn_offset, proximity
scan_element and thresh falling/rising values for accelerometers. All
elements long in use that have slipped by being explicitly documented.
* Tidy up the tools previously in drivers/staging/iio/Documentation and move
them out to /tools/iio. Yet another move that should have happened long ago.
This time Roberta Dobrescu did the leg work. Thanks!
Core Cleanups
* Export userspace IIO headers. We should have done the appropriate header
splitting a long time ago. Thanks to Daniel for sorting this out.
* Refactor the registring of attributes for buffers to move all non-custom
ones to a vector allowing easier additions to the current set in the future.
Driver Cleanups
* gpiod related cleanups. Make use of the additional parameter to specify
initial direciton to avoid extra code.
* bmc150 - Various refactorings to reduce code repitition and prepare for
hardware buffer support. Some of these cleanups are good even
without the new functionality.
* kmx61 - direct use of index to an array avoiding a structure element which
was always the index to an element in an array of that structure.
* vf610 - avoid incorrect type for return from wait_for_completion_timeout.
* gp2ap020a00f - use put_unaligned_le32 for slight code simplification.
* ade7754 - improve error handling including suppressing some build warnings.
* ade7759 - improve error handling including suppressing some build warnings.
* hmc5843 - Long line and indentation fixes. Also some constifying of various
constant data.
*

iio: Export userspace IIO headers
After UAPI header file split [1] all user-kernel interfaces were placed under include/uapi/. This patch moves IIO user specific API from: * include/linux/iio/events.h => include/uapi/linux/iio/events.h * include/linux/types.h => include/uapi/linux/types.h Now there is no need for nasty tricks to compile userspace programs (e.g iio_event_monitor). Just installing the kernel headers with make headers_install command does the job.

netns: add rtnl cmd to add and get peer netns ids
With this patch, a user can define an id for a peer netns by providing a FD or a PID. These ids are local to the netns where it is added (ie valid only into this netns). The main function (ie the one exported to other module), peernet2id(), allows to get the id of a peer netns. If no id has been assigned by the user, this function allocates one. These ids will be used in netlink messages to point to a peer netns, for example in case of a x-netns interface. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Staging patches for 3.19-rc1
Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1. We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good thing, but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines removed overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver. Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place, well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid details. The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder code out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel. This is code that has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the tens of millions of devices with no issues. Yes, the code is horrid, and the userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going to change due to legacy issues that we have no control over. Because so many devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable, might as well promote it out of staging. This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone participating agreed that this was the best way forward. There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of that work for another year at the earliest. If that ever happens, and Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version. As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been doing it for the past few years with no problems. I'll send a MAINTAINERS entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk to the Google developers about if they are willing to help with it or not, last I checked they were, which was good.

virtio 1.0 makes all memory structures LE, so we need APIs to conditionally do a byteswap on BE architectures. To make it easier to check code statically, add virtio specific types for multi-byte integers in memory. Add low level wrappers that do a byteswap conditionally, these will be useful e.g. for vhost.

Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending
Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"Here are the target updates for v3.18-rc2 code. These where
originally destined for -rc1, but due to the combination of travel
last week for KVM Forum and my mistake of taking the three week merge
window literally, the pull request slipped.. Apologies for that.
Things where reasonably quiet this round. The highlights include:
- New userspace backend driver (target_core_user.ko) by Shaohua Li
and Andy Grover
- A number of cleanups in target, iscsi-taret and qla_target code
from Joern Engel
- Fix an OOPs related to queue full handling with CHECK_CONDITION
status from Quinn Tran
- Fix to disable TX completion interrupt coalescing in iser-target,
that was causing problems on some hardware
- Fix for PR APTPL metadata handling with demo-mode ACLs
I'm most excited about the new backend driver that uses UIO + shared
memory ring to dispatch I/O and control commands into user-space.
This was probably the most requested feature by users over the last
couple of years, and opens up a new area of development + porting of
existing user-space storage applications to LIO. Thanks to Shaohua +
Andy for making this happen.
Also another honorable mention, a new Xen PV SCSI driver was merged
via the xen/tip.git tree recently, which puts us now at 10 target
drivers in upstream! Thanks to David Vrabel + Juergen Gross for their
work to get this code merged"

target: Add a user-passthrough backstore
Add a LIO storage engine that presents commands to userspace for execution. This would allow more complex backstores to be implemented out-of-kernel, and also make experimentation a-la FUSE (but at the SCSI level -- "SUSE"?) possible. It uses a mmap()able UIO device per LUN to share a command ring and data area. The commands are raw SCSI CDBs and iovs for in/out data. The command ring is also reused for returning scsi command status and optional sense data. This implementation is based on Shaohua Li's earlier version but heavily modified. Differences include: * Shared memory allocated by kernel, not locked-down user pages * Single ring for command request and response * Offsets instead of embedded pointers * Generic SCSI CDB passthrough instead of per-cmd specialization in ring format. * Uses UIO device instead of anon_file passed in mailbox. * Optional in-kernel handling of some commands. The main reason for these differences is to permit greater resiliency if the user process dies or hangs. Things not yet implemented (on purpose): * Zero copy. The data area is flexible enough to allow page flipping or backend-allocated pages to be used by fabrics, but it's not clear these are performance wins. Can come later. * Out-of-order command completion by userspace. Possible to add by just allowing userspace to change cmd_id in rsp cmd entries, but currently not supported. * No locks between kernel cmd submission and completion routines. Sounds like it's possible, but this can come later. * Sparse allocation of mmaped area. Current code vmallocs the whole thing. If the mapped area was larger and not fully mapped then the driver would have more freedom to change cmd and data area sizes based on demand. Current code open issues: * The use of idrs may be overkill -- we maybe can replace them with a simple counter to generate cmd_ids, and a hash table to get a cmd_id's associated pointer. * Use of a free-running counter for cmd ring instead of explicit modulo math. This would require power-of-2 cmd ring size. (Add kconfig depends NET - Randy) Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> |

net: filter: split filter.h and expose eBPF to user space
allow user space to generate eBPF programs uapi/linux/bpf.h: eBPF instruction set definition linux/filter.h: the rest This patch only moves macro definitions, but practically it freezes existing eBPF instruction set, though new instructions can still be added in the future. These eBPF definitions cannot go into uapi/linux/filter.h, since the names may conflict with existing applications. Full eBPF ISA description is in Documentation/networking/filter.txt Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
