16 years agoaoe: dynamically allocate a capped number of skbs when necessary
Ed L. Cashin [Fri, 8 Feb 2008 12:20:05 +0000 (04:20 -0800)]
aoe: dynamically allocate a capped number of skbs when necessary

What this Patch Does

  Even before this recent series of 12 patches to 2.6.22-rc4, the aoe
  driver was reusing a small set of skbs that were allocated once and
  were only used for outbound AoE commands.

  The network layer cannot be allowed to put_page on the data that is
  still associated with a bio we haven't returned to the block layer,
  so the aoe driver (even before the patch under discussion) is still
  the owner of skbs that have been handed to the network layer for
  transmission.  We need to keep track of these skbs so that we can
  free them, but by tracking them, we can also easily re-use them.

  The new patch was a response to the behavior of certain network
  drivers.  We cannot reuse an skb that the network driver still has
  in its transmit ring.  Network drivers can defer transmit ring
  cleanup and then use the state in the skb to determine how many data
  segments to clean up in its transmit ring.  The tg3 driver is one
  driver that behaves in this way.

  When the network driver defers cleanup of its transmit ring, the aoe
  driver can find itself in a situation where it would like to send an
  AoE command, and the AoE target is ready for more work, but the
  network driver still has all of the pre-allocated skbs.  In that
  case, the new patch just calls alloc_skb, as you'd expect.

  We don't want to get carried away, though.  We try not to do
  excessive allocation in the write path, so we cap the number of skbs
  we dynamically allocate.

  Probably calling it a "dynamic pool" is misleading.  We were already
  trying to use a small fixed-size set of pre-allocated skbs before
  this patch, and this patch just provides a little headroom (with a
  ceiling, though) to accomodate network drivers that hang onto skbs,
  by allocating when needed.  The d->skbpool_hd list of allocated skbs
  is necessary so that we can free them later.

  We didn't notice the need for this headroom until AoE targets got
  fast enough.

Alternatives

  If the network layer never did a put_page on the pages in the bio's
  we get from the block layer, then it would be possible for us to
  hand skbs to the network layer and forget about them, allowing the
  network layer to free skbs itself (and thereby calling our own
  skb->destructor callback function if we needed that).  In that case
  we could get rid of the pre-allocated skbs and also the
  d->skbpool_hd, instead just calling alloc_skb every time we wanted
  to transmit a packet.  The slab allocator would effectively maintain
  the list of skbs.

  Besides a loss of CPU cache locality, the main concern with that
  approach the danger that it would increase the likelihood of
  deadlock when VM is trying to free pages by writing dirty data from
  the page cache through the aoe driver out to persistent storage on
  an AoE device.  Right now we have a situation where we have
  pre-allocation that corresponds to how much we use, which seems
  ideal.

  Of course, there's still the separate issue of receiving the packets
  that tell us that a write has successfully completed on the AoE
  target.  When memory is low and VM is using AoE to flush dirty data
  to free up pages, it would be perfect if there were a way for us to
  register a fast callback that could recognize write command
  completion responses.  But I don't think the current problems with
  the receive side of the situation are a justification for
  exacerbating the problem on the transmit side.

A remote AoE device is something can process ATA commands and is identified by
an AoE shelf number and an AoE slot number.  Such a device might have more
than one network interface, and it might be reachable by more than one local
network interface.  This patch tracks the available network paths available to
each AoE device, allowing them to be used more efficiently.

Andrew Morton asked about the call to msleep_interruptible in the revalidate
function.  Yes, if a signal is pending, then msleep_interruptible will not
return 0.  That means we will not loop but will call aoenet_xmit with a NULL
skb, which is a noop.  If the system is too low on memory or the aoe driver is
too low on frames, then the user can hit control-C to interrupt the attempt to
do a revalidate.  I have added a comment to the code summarizing that.

Andrew Morton asked whether the allocation performed inside addtgt could use a
more relaxed allocation like GFP_KERNEL, but addtgt is called when the aoedev
lock has been locked with spin_lock_irqsave.  It would be nice to allocate the
memory under fewer restrictions, but targets are only added when the device is
being discovered, and if the target can't be added right now, we can try again
in a minute when then next AoE config query broadcast goes out.

Andrew Morton pointed out that the "too many targets" message could be printed
for failing GFP_ATOMIC allocations.  The last patch in this series makes the

rewrite rd

This is a rewrite of the ramdisk block device driver.

The old one is really difficult because it effectively implements a block
device which serves data out of its own buffer cache.  It relies on the dirty
bit being set, to pin its backing store in cache, however there are non
trivial paths which can clear the dirty bit (eg.  try_to_free_buffers()),
which had recently lead to data corruption.  And in general it is completely
wrong for a block device driver to do this.

The new one is more like a regular block device driver.  It has no idea about
vm/vfs stuff.  It's backing store is similar to the buffer cache (a simple
radix-tree of pages), but it doesn't know anything about page cache (the pages
in the radix tree are not pagecache pages).

There is one slight downside -- direct block device access and filesystem
metadata access goes through an extra copy and gets stored in RAM twice.
However, this downside is only slight, because the real buffercache of the
device is now reclaimable (because we're not playing crazy games with it), so
under memory intensive situations, footprint should effectively be the same --
maybe even a slight advantage to the new driver because it can also reclaim
buffer heads.

The fact that it now goes through all the regular vm/fs paths makes it
much more useful for testing, too.

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   2837     849     384    4070     fe6 drivers/block/rd.o
   3528     371      12    3911     f47 drivers/block/brd.o

Text is larger, but data and bss are smaller, making total size smaller.

A few other nice things about it:
- Similar structure and layout to the new loop device handlinag.
- Dynamic ramdisk creation.
- Runtime flexible buffer head size (because it is no longer part of the
  ramdisk code).
- Boot / load time flexible ramdisk size, which could easily be extended
  to a per-ramdisk runtime changeable size (eg. with an ioctl).
- Can use highmem for the backing store.

Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.

be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case.  Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.

To make this work, this patch also does the following:

 (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
     CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.

 (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
     core dumping code.

 (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline.  This
     is then included only where needed.  This means that this bit of arch
     code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
     the core kernel.

 (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
     needed) and FRV.

This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

siglock. This means that kill_pid_info() (and thus sys_kill()) can return a

Change the code to retry when lock_task_sighand() fails. The endless loop is
not possible, __exit_signal() both clears ->sighand and does detach_pid().

pid_vnr is a very nice optimization but because it isn't quite what we want

get_signal_to_deliver.

So unless the performance impact is huge having an interface that does what

strange.

ptrace_stop: fix the race with ptrace detach+attach

If the tracer went away (may_ptrace_stop() failed), ptrace_stop() drops
tasklist and then changes the ->state from TASK_TRACED to TASK_RUNNING.

This can fool another tracer which attaches to us in between.  Change the
->state under tasklist_lock to ensure that ptrace_check_attach() can't wrongly
succeed.  Also, remove the unnecessary mb().

IPC: consolidate sem_exit_ns(), msg_exit_ns() and shm_exit_ns()

sem_exit_ns(), msg_exit_ns() and shm_exit_ns() are all called when an
ipc_namespace is released to free all ipcs of each type.  But in fact, they
do the same thing: they loop around all ipcs to free them individually by
calling a specific routine.

This patch proposes to consolidate this by introducing a common function,
free_ipcs(), that do the job.  The specific routine to call on each
individual ipcs is passed as parameter.  For this, these ipc-specific
'free' routines are reworked to take a generic 'struct ipc_perm' as
parameter.

IPC: make struct ipc_ids static in ipc_namespace

Each ipc_namespace contains a table of 3 pointers to struct ipc_ids (3 for
msg, sem and shm, structure used to store all ipcs) These 'struct ipc_ids'
are dynamically allocated for each icp_namespace as the ipc_namespace
itself (for the init namespace, they are initialized with pointers to
static variables instead)

It is so for historical reason: in fact, before the use of idr to store the
ipcs, the ipcs were stored in tables of variable length, depending of the
maximum number of ipc allowed.  Now, these 'struct ipc_ids' have a fixed
size.  As they are allocated in any cases for each new ipc_namespace, there
is no gain of memory in having them allocated separately of the struct
ipc_namespace.

This patch proposes to make this table static in the struct ipc_namespace.
Thus, we can allocate all in once and get rid of all the code needed to
allocate and free these ipc_ids separately.
