Michael S. Tsirkin c38e39c378 vhost-net: fix use-after-free in vhost_net_flush
vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait has a confusing name:
it will actually also free it's argument.
Thus since commit 1280c27f8e
    "vhost-net: flush outstanding DMAs on memory change"
vhost_net_flush tries to use the argument after passing it
to vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait, this results
in use after free.
To fix, don't free the argument in vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait,
add an new API for callers that want to free ubufs.

Michael S. Tsirkin 288cfe78c8 vhost: fix ubuf_info cleanup
vhost_net_clear_ubuf_info didn't clear ubuf_info
after kfree, this could trigger double free.
Fix this and simplify this code to make it more robust: make sure
ubuf info is always freed through vhost_net_clear_ubuf_info.

Jason Wang 4364d5f96e vhost_net: clear msg.control for non-zerocopy case during tx
When we decide not use zero-copy, msg.control should be set to NULL otherwise
macvtap/tap may set zerocopy callbacks which may decrease the kref of ubufs
wrongly.

Bug were introduced by commit cedb9bdce0
(vhost-net: skip head management if no outstanding).

This solves the following warnings:

Jason Wang 70181d5120 vhost_net: remove tx polling state
After commit 2b8b328b61 (vhost_net: handle polling
errors when setting backend), we in fact track the polling state through
poll->wqh, so there's no need to duplicate the work with an extra
vhost_net_polling_state. So this patch removes this and make the code simpler.

This patch also removes the all tx starting/stopping code in tx path according
to Michael's suggestion.

Netperf test shows almost the same result in stream test, but gets improvements
on TCP_RR tests (both zerocopy or copy) especially on low load cases.

Tested between multiqueue kvm guest and external host with two direct
connected 82599s.

Jason Wang 2b8b328b61 vhost_net: handle polling errors when setting backend
Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues:

- vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll,
  this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to
  add itself to the waitqueue
- userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling
  failed.

Solve this by:

- check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue
- report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value
  will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend

After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it
will addressed by the next patch.

Zero copy TX has been around for a while now.
We seem to be down to eliminating theoretical bugs
and performance tuning at this point:
it's probably time to enable it by default so that

Keep the flag around meanwhile so users can experiment
with disabling this if they experience regressions.

Michael S. Tsirkin eaae8132ef vhost-net: select tx zero copy dynamically
Even when vhost-net is in zero-copy transmit mode,
net core might still decide to copy the skb later
which is somewhat slower than a copy in user
context: data copy overhead is added to the cost of
page pin/unpin. The result is that enabling tx zero copy
option leads to higher CPU utilization for guest to guest
and guest to host traffic.

To fix this, suppress zero copy tx after a given number of
packets triggered late data copy. Re-enable periodically
to detect workload changes.

Michael S. Tsirkin bab632d69e vhost: vhost TX zero-copy support
>From: Shirley Ma <mashirle@us.ibm.com>

This adds experimental zero copy support in vhost-net,
disabled by default. To enable, set
experimental_zcopytx module option to 1.

This patch maintains the outstanding userspace buffers in the
sequence it is delivered to vhost. The outstanding userspace buffers
will be marked as done once the lower device buffers DMA has finished.
This is monitored through last reference of kfree_skb callback. Two
buffer indices are used for this purpose.

The vhost-net device passes the userspace buffers info to lower device
skb through message control. DMA done status check and guest
notification are handled by handle_tx: in the worst case is all buffers
in the vq are in pending/done status, so we need to notify guest to
release DMA done buffers first before we get any new buffers from the
vq.

One known problem is that if the guest stops submitting
buffers, buffers might never get used until some
further action, e.g. device reset. This does not
seem to affect linux guests.

Codes duplication were found between the handling of mergeable and big
buffers, so this patch tries to unify them. This could be easily done
by adding a quota to the get_rx_bufs() which is used to limit the
number of buffers it returns (for mergeable buffer, the quota is
simply UIO_MAXIOV, for big buffers, the quota is just 1), and then the
previous handle_rx_mergeable() could be resued also for big buffers.

Jason Wang cfbdab9513 vhost-net: check the support of mergeable buffer outside the receive loop
No need to check the support of mergeable buffer inside the recevie
loop as the whole handle_rx()_xx is in the read critical region.  So
this patch move it ahead of the receiving loop.

Michael S. Tsirkin 5e18247b02 vhost: rcu annotation fixup
When built with rcu checks enabled, vhost triggers
bogus warnings as vhost features are read without
dev->mutex sometimes, and private pointer is read
with our kind of rcu where work serves as a
read side critical section.

Fixing it properly is not trivial.
Disable the warnings by stubbing out the checks for now.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 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.

Jason Wang e0e9b40647 vhost: max s/g to match qemu
Qemu supports up to UIO_MAXIOV s/g so we have to match that because guest
drivers may rely on this.

Allocate indirect and log arrays dynamically to avoid using too much contigious
memory and make the length of hdr array to match the header length since each
iovec entry has a least one byte.

Test with copying large files w/ and w/o migration in both linux and windows
guests.

Michael S. Tsirkin ee05d6939e vhost-net: fix range checking in mrg bufs case
In mergeable buffer case, we use headcount, log_num
and seg as indexes in same-size arrays, and
we know that headcount <= seg and
log_num equals either 0 or seg.

Therefore, the right thing to do is range-check seg,
not headcount as we do now: these will be different
if guest chains s/g descriptors (this does not
happen now, but we can not trust the guest).

Long term, we should add BUG_ON checks to verify
two other indexes are what we think they should be.

Replace vhost_workqueue with per-vhost kthread.  Other than callback
argument change from struct work_struct * to struct vhost_work *,
there's no visible change to vhost_poll_*() interface.

This conversion is to make each vhost use a dedicated kthread so that
resource control via cgroup can be applied.

Partially based on Sridhar Samudrala's patch.

* Updated to use sub structure vhost_work instead of directly using
  vhost_poll at Michael's suggestion.

* Added flusher wake_up() optimization at Michael's suggestion.

* Converted atomics/barrier use to a spinlock.

Takuya Yoshikawa d3553a5249 vhost-net: fix to check the return value of copy_to/from_user() correctly
copy_to/from_user() returns the number of bytes that could not be copied.

So we need to check if it is not zero, and in that case, we should return
the error number -EFAULT rather than directly return the return value from
copy_to/from_user().

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af 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.

guest to remote communication with vhost net sometimes stops until
guest driver is restarted. This happens when we get guest kick precisely
when the backend send queue is full, as a result handle_tx() returns without
polling backend. This patch fixes this by restarting tx poll on this condition.

Michael S. Tsirkin 3a4d5c94e9 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.
