switchtec: Increase PFF limit from 48 to 255
The Switchtec devices supports two PCIe Function Frameworks (PFFs) per upstream port (one for the port itself and one for the management endoint), and each PFF may have up to 255 ports. Previously the driver only supported 48 of those ports, and the SWITCHTEC_IOCTL_EVENT_SUMMARY ioctl only returned information about those 48. Increase SWITCHTEC_MAX_PFF_CSR from 48 to 255 so the driver supports all 255 possible ports. Rename SWITCHTEC_IOCTL_EVENT_SUMMARY and associated struct switchtec_ioctl_event_summary to SWITCHTEC_IOCTL_EVENT_SUMMARY_LEGACY and switchtec_ioctl_event_summary_legacy with so existing applications work unchanged, supporting up to 48 ports. Add replacement SWITCHTEC_IOCTL_EVENT_SUMMARY and struct switchtec_ioctl_event_summary that new and recompiled applications support up to 255 ports.

PCI: Assign bus numbers present in EA capability for bridges
The "Enhanced Allocation (EA) for Memory and I/O Resources" ECN, approved 23 October 2014, sec 6.9.1.2, specifies a second DW in the capability for type 1 (bridge) functions to describe fixed secondary and subordinate bus numbers. This ECN was included in the PCIe r4.0 spec, but sec 6.9.1.2 was omitted, presumably by mistake. Read fixed bus numbers from the EA capability for bridges.

kbuild: force all architectures except um to include mandatory-y
Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out of the mandatory-y mechanism. um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional case which does not support UAPI.

Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd. Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then: https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/ The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility" * tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests: add tests for pidfd_send_signal() signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall |

y2038: fix socket.h header inclusion
Referencing the __kernel_long_t type caused some user space applications
to stop compiling when they had not already included linux/posix_types.h,
e.g.
s/multicast.c -o ext/sockets/multicast.lo
In file included from /builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/main/php.h:468,
from /builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/ext/sockets/sockets.c:27:
/builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/ext/sockets/sockets.c: In function 'zm_startup_sockets':
/builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/ext/sockets/sockets.c:776:40: error: '__kernel_long_t' undeclared (first use in this function)
776 | REGISTER_LONG_CONSTANT("SO_SNDTIMEO", SO_SNDTIMEO, CONST_CS | CONST_PERSISTENT);
It is safe to include that header here, since it only contains kernel
internal types that do not conflict with other user space types.
It's still possible that some related build failures remain, but those
are likely to be for code that is not already y2038 safe.

Since the first one, we've added basic unit testing of the three system calls, that resides in liburing like the other unit tests that we have so far. It'll take a while to get full coverage of it, but we're working towards it. I've also added two basic test programs to tools/io_uring. One uses the raw interface and has support for all the various features that io_uring supports outside of standard IO, like fixed files, fixed IO buffers, and polled IO. The other uses the liburing API, and is a simplified version of cp(1). This adds support for a new IO interface, io_uring. io_uring allows an application to communicate with the kernel through two rings, the submission queue (SQ) and completion queue (CQ) ring. This allows for very efficient handling of IOs, see the v5 posting for some basic numbers: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20190116175003.17880-1-axboe@kernel.dk/ Outside of just efficiency, the interface is also flexible and extendable, and allows for future use cases like the upcoming NVMe key-value store API, networked IO, and so on. It also supports async buffered IO, something that we've always failed to support in the kernel. Outside of basic IO features, it supports async polled IO as well. This particular feature has already been tested at Facebook months ago for flash storage boxes, with 25-33% improvements. It makes polled IO actually useful for real world use cases, where even basic flash sees a nice win in terms of efficiency, latency, and performance. These boxes were IOPS bound before, now they are not. This series adds three new system calls. One for setting up an io_uring instance (io_uring_setup(2)), one for submitting/completing IO (io_uring_enter(2)), and one for aux functions like registrating file sets, buffers, etc (io_uring_register(2)). Through the help of Arnd, I've coordinated the syscall numbers so merge on that front should be painless. Jon did a writeup of the interface a while back, which (except for minor details that have been tweaked) is still accurate. Find that here: https://lwn.net/Articles/776703/ Huge thanks to Al Viro for helping getting the reference cycle code correct, and to Jann Horn for his extensive reviews focused on both security and bugs in general. There's a userspace library that provides basic functionality for applications that don't need or want to care about how to fiddle with the rings directly. It has helpers to allow applications to easily set up an io_uring instance, and submit/complete IO through it without knowing about the intricacies of the rings. It also includes man pages (thanks to Jeff Moyer), and will continue to grow support helper functions and features as time progresses. Find it here: git://git.kernel.dk/liburing Fio has full support for the raw interface, both in the form of an IO engine (io_uring), but also with a small test application (t/io_uring) that can exercise and benchmark the interface" * tag 'io_uring-2019-03-06' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: io_uring: add a few test tools io_uring: allow workqueue item to handle multiple buffered requests io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_POLL io_uring: add io_kiocb ref count io_uring: add submission polling io_uring: add file set registration net: split out functions related to registering inflight socket files io_uring: add support for pre-mapped user IO buffers block: implement bio helper to add iter bvec pages to bio io_uring: batch io_kiocb allocation io_uring: use fget/fput_many() for file references fs: add fget_many() and fput_many() io_uring: support for IO polling io_uring: add fsync support Add io_uring IO interface |

exec: increase BINPRM_BUF_SIZE to 256
Large enterprise clients often run applications out of networked file systems where the IT mandated layout of project volumes can end up leading to paths that are longer than 128 characters. Bumping this up to the next order of two solves this problem in all but the most egregious case while still fitting into a 512b slab.

autofs: add ignore mount option
Add an autofs file system mount option that can be used to provide a generic indicator to applications that the mount entry should be ignored when displaying mount information. In other OSes that provide autofs and that provide a mount list to user space based on the kernel mount list a no-op mount option ("ignore" is the one use on the most common OS) is allowed so that autofs file system users can optionally use it. The idea is that it be used by user space programs to exclude autofs mounts from consideration when reading the mounts list. Prior to the change to link /etc/mtab to /proc/self/mounts all I needed to do to achieve this was to use mount(2) and not update the mtab but now that no longer works. I know the symlinking happened a long time ago and I considered doing this then but, at the time I couldn't remember the commonly used option name and thought persuading the various utility maintainers would be too hard. But now I have a RHEL request to do this for compatibility for a widely used product so I want to go ahead with it and try and enlist the help of some utility package maintainers. Clearly, without the option nothing can be done so it's at least a start.

linux/kernel.h: split *_MAX and *_MIN macros into <linux/limits.h>
<linux/kernel.h> tends to be cluttered because we often put various sort of unrelated stuff in it. So, we have split out a sensible chunk of code into a separate header from time to time. This commit splits out the *_MAX and *_MIN defines. The standard header <limits.h> contains various MAX, MIN constants including numerial limits. [1] I think it makes sense to move in-kernel MAX, MIN constants into include/linux/limits.h. We already have include/uapi/linux/limits.h to contain some user-space constants. I changed its include guard to _UAPI_LINUX_LIMITS_H. This change has no impact to the user-space because scripts/headers_install.sh rips off the '_UAPI' prefix from the include guards of exported headers.

Char/Misc driver patches for 5.1-rc1
Here is the big char/misc driver patch pull request for 5.1-rc1. The largest thing by far is the new habanalabs driver for their AI accelerator chip. For now it is in the drivers/misc directory but will probably move to a new directory soon along with other drivers of this type. Other than that, just the usual set of individual driver updates and fixes. There's an "odd" merge in here from the DRM tree that they asked me to do as the MEI driver is starting to interact with the i915 driver, and it needed some coordination.

mm/memfd: add an F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal to memfd
Android uses ashmem for sharing memory regions. We are looking forward to migrating all usecases of ashmem to memfd so that we can possibly remove the ashmem driver in the future from staging while also benefiting from using memfd and contributing to it. Note staging drivers are also not ABI and generally can be removed at anytime. One of the main usecases Android has is the ability to create a region and mmap it as writeable, then add protection against making any "future" writes while keeping the existing already mmap'ed writeable-region active. This allows us to implement a usecase where receivers of the shared memory buffer can get a read-only view, while the sender continues to write to the buffer. See CursorWindow documentation in Android for more details: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/CursorWindow This usecase cannot be implemented with the existing F_SEAL_WRITE seal. To support the usecase, this patch adds a new F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal which prevents any future mmap and write syscalls from succeeding while keeping the existing mmap active. A better way to do F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal was discussed [1] last week where we don't need to modify core VFS structures to get the same behavior of the seal. This solves several side-effects pointed by Andy. self-tests are provided in later patch to verify the expected semantics. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181111173650.GA256781@google.com/ Thanks a lot to Andy for suggestions to improve code.

mm: convert PG_balloon to PG_offline
PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline. We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline (e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()). We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later on. Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched (e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages from dumps. We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm (and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it, document PGTABLE.

signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall
The kill() syscall operates on process identifiers (pid). After a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. This issue has often surfaced and there has been a push to address this problem [1]. This patch uses file descriptors (fd) from proc/<pid> as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. The fd can be used to send signals to the process it refers to. Thus, the new syscall pidfd_send_signal() is introduced to solve this problem. Instead of pids it operates on process fds (pidfd). /* prototype and argument /* long pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags); /* syscall number 424 */ The syscall number was chosen to be 424 to align with Arnd's rework in his y2038 to minimize merge conflicts (cf. [25]). In addition to the pidfd and signal argument it takes an additional siginfo_t and flags argument. If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to kill(<positive-pid>, <signal>). If it is not NULL pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo(). The flags argument is added to allow for future extensions of this syscall. It currently needs to be passed as 0. Failing to do so will cause EINVAL. /* pidfd_send_signal() replaces multiple pid-based syscalls */ The pidfd_send_signal() syscall currently takes on the job of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) and parts of the functionality of kill(2), Namely, when a positive pid is passed to kill(2). It will however be possible to also replace tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) if this syscall is extended. /* sending signals to threads (tid) and process groups (pgid) */ Specifically, the pidfd_send_signal() syscall does currently not operate on process groups or threads. This is left for future extensions. In order to extend the syscall to allow sending signal to threads and process groups appropriately named flags (e.g. PIDFD_TYPE_PGID, and PIDFD_TYPE_TID) should be added. This implies that the flags argument will determine what is signaled and not the file descriptor itself. Put in other words, grouping in this api is a property of the flags argument not a property of the file descriptor (cf. [13]). Clarification for this has been requested by Eric (cf. [19]). When appropriate extensions through the flags argument are added then pidfd_send_signal() can additionally replace the part of kill(2) which operates on process groups as well as the tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) syscalls. How such an extension could be implemented has been very roughly sketched in [14], [15], and [16]. However, this should not be taken as a commitment to a particular implementation. There might be better ways to do it. Right now this is intentionally left out to keep this patchset as simple as possible (cf. [4]). /* naming */ The syscall had various names throughout iterations of this patchset: - procfd_signal() - procfd_send_signal() - taskfd_send_signal() In the last round of reviews it was pointed out that given that if the flags argument decides the scope of the signal instead of different types of fds it might make sense to either settle for "procfd_" or "pidfd_" as prefix. The community was willing to accept either (cf. [17] and [18]). Given that one developer expressed strong preference for the "pidfd_" prefix (cf. [13]) and with other developers less opinionated about the name we should settle for "pidfd_" to avoid further bikeshedding. The "_send_signal" suffix was chosen to reflect the fact that the syscall takes on the job of multiple syscalls. It is therefore intentional that the name is not reminiscent of neither kill(2) nor rt_sigqueueinfo(2). Not the fomer because it might imply that pidfd_send_signal() is a replacement for kill(2), and not the latter because it is a hassle to remember the correct spelling - especially for non-native speakers - and because it is not descriptive enough of what the syscall actually does. The name "pidfd_send_signal" makes it very clear that its job is to send signals. /* zombies */ Zombies can be signaled just as any other process. No special error will be reported since a zombie state is an unreliable state (cf. [3]). However, this can be added as an extension through the @flags argument if the need ever arises. /* cross-namespace signals */ The patch currently enforces that the signaler and signalee either are in the same pid namespace or that the signaler's pid namespace is an ancestor of the signalee's pid namespace. This is done for the sake of simplicity and because it is unclear to what values certain members of struct siginfo_t would need to be set to (cf. [5], [6]). /* compat syscalls */ It became clear that we would like to avoid adding compat syscalls (cf. [7]). The compat syscall handling is now done in kernel/signal.c itself by adding __copy_siginfo_from_user_generic() which lets us avoid compat syscalls (cf. [8]). It should be noted that the addition of __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() is caused by a bug in the original implementation of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) (cf. 12). With upcoming rework for syscall handling things might improve significantly (cf. [11]) and __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() will not gain any additional callers. /* testing */ This patch was tested on x64 and x86. /* userspace usage */ An asciinema recording for the basic functionality can be found under [9]. With this patch a process can be killed via: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <errno.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h> static inline int do_pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags) { #ifdef __NR_pidfd_send_signal return syscall(__NR_pidfd_send_signal, pidfd, sig, info, flags); #else return -ENOSYS; #endif } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int fd, ret, saved_errno, sig; if (argc < 3) exit(EXIT_FAILURE); fd = open(argv[1], O_DIRECTORY | O_CLOEXEC); if (fd < 0) { printf("%s - Failed to open \"%s\"\n", strerror(errno), argv[1]); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } sig = atoi(argv[2]); printf("Sending signal %d to process %s\n", sig, argv[1]); ret = do_pidfd_send_signal(fd, sig, NULL, 0); saved_errno = errno; close(fd); errno = saved_errno; if (ret < 0) { printf("%s - Failed to send signal %d to process %s\n", strerror(errno), sig, argv[1]); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); } /* Q&A * Given that it seems the same questions get asked again by people who are * late to the party it makes sense to add a Q&A section to the commit * message so it's hopefully easier to avoid duplicate threads. * * For the sake of progress please consider these arguments settled unless * there is a new point that desperately needs to be addressed. Please make * sure to check the links to the threads in this commit message whether * this has not already been covered. */ Q-01: (Florian Weimer [20], Andrew Morton [21]) What happens when the target process has exited? A-01: Sending the signal will fail with ESRCH (cf. [22]). Q-02: (Andrew Morton [21]) Is the task_struct pinned by the fd? A-02: No. A reference to struct pid is kept. struct pid - as far as I understand - was created exactly for the reason to not require to pin struct task_struct (cf. [22]). Q-03: (Andrew Morton [21]) Does the entire procfs directory remain visible? Just one entry within it? A-03: The same thing that happens right now when you hold a file descriptor to /proc/<pid> open (cf. [22]). Q-04: (Andrew Morton [21]) Does the pid remain reserved? A-04: No. This patchset guarantees a stable handle not that pids are not recycled (cf. [22]). Q-05: (Andrew Morton [21]) Do attempts to signal that fd return errors? A-05: See {Q,A}-01. Q-06: (Andrew Morton [22]) Is there a cleaner way of obtaining the fd? Another syscall perhaps. A-06: Userspace can already trivially retrieve file descriptors from procfs so this is something that we will need to support anyway. Hence, there's no immediate need to add another syscalls just to make pidfd_send_signal() not dependent on the presence of procfs. However, adding a syscalls to get such file descriptors is planned for a future patchset (cf. [22]). Q-07: (Andrew Morton [21] and others) This fd-for-a-process sounds like a handy thing and people may well think up other uses for it in the future, probably unrelated to signals. Are the code and the interface designed to permit such future applications? A-07: Yes (cf. [22]). Q-08: (Andrew Morton [21] and others) Now I think about it, why a new syscall? This thing is looking rather like an ioctl? A-08: This has been extensively discussed. It was agreed that a syscall is preferred for a variety or reasons. Here are just a few taken from prior threads. Syscalls are safer than ioctl()s especially when signaling to fds. Processes are a core kernel concept so a syscall seems more appropriate. The layout of the syscall with its four arguments would require the addition of a custom struct for the ioctl() thereby causing at least the same amount or even more complexity for userspace than a simple syscall. The new syscall will replace multiple other pid-based syscalls (see description above). The file-descriptors-for-processes concept introduced with this syscall will be extended with other syscalls in the future. See also [22], [23] and various other threads already linked in here. Q-09: (Florian Weimer [24]) What happens if you use the new interface with an O_PATH descriptor? A-09: pidfds opened as O_PATH fds cannot be used to send signals to a process (cf. [2]). Signaling processes through pidfds is the equivalent of writing to a file. Thus, this is not an operation that operates "purely at the file descriptor level" as required by the open(2) manpage.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2019-03-04 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) Add AF_XDP support to libbpf. Rationale is to facilitate writing AF_XDP applications by offering higher-level APIs that hide many of the details of the AF_XDP uapi. Sample programs are converted over to this new interface as well, from Magnus. 2) Introduce a new cant_sleep() macro for annotation of functions that cannot sleep and use it in BPF_PROG_RUN() to assert that BPF programs run under preemption disabled context, from Peter. 3) Introduce per BPF prog stats in order to monitor the usage of BPF; this is controlled by kernel.bpf_stats_enabled sysctl knob where monitoring tools can make use of this to efficiently determine the average cost of programs, from Alexei. 4) Split up BPF selftest's test_progs similarly as we already did with test_verifier. This allows to further reduce merge conflicts in future and to get more structure into our quickly growing BPF selftest suite, from Stanislav. 5) Fix a bug in BTF's dedup algorithm which can cause an infinite loop in some circumstances; also various BPF doc fixes and improvements, from Andrii. 6) Various BPF sample cleanups and migration to libbpf in order to further isolate the old sample loader code (so we can get rid of it at some point), from Jakub. 7) Add a new BPF helper for BPF cgroup skb progs that allows to set ECN CE code point and a Host Bandwidth Manager (HBM) sample program for limiting the bandwidth used by v2 cgroups, from Lawrence. 8) Enable write access to skb->queue_mapping from tc BPF egress programs in order to let BPF pick TX queue, from Jesper. 9) Fix a bug in BPF spinlock handling for map-in-map which did not propagate spin_lock_off to the meta map, from Yonghong. 10) Fix a bug in the new per-CPU BPF prog counters to properly initialize stats for each CPU, from Eric. 11) Add various BPF helper prototypes to selftest's bpf_helpers.h, from Willem. 12) Fix various BPF samples bugs in XDP and tracing progs, from Toke, Daniel and Yonghong. 13) Silence preemption splat in test_bpf after BPF_PROG_RUN() enforces it now everywhere, from Anders. 14) Fix a signedness bug in libbpf's btf_dedup_ref_type() to get error handling working, from Dan. 15) Fix bpftool documentation and auto-completion with regards to stream_{verdict,parser} attach types, from Alban. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

sch_cake: Permit use of connmarks as tin classifiers
Add flag 'FWMARK' to enable use of firewall connmarks as tin selector. The connmark (skbuff->mark) needs to be in the range 1->tin_cnt ie. for diffserv3 the mark needs to be 1->3. Background Typically CAKE uses DSCP as the basis for tin selection. DSCP values are relatively easily changed as part of the egress path, usually with iptables & the mangle table, ingress is more challenging. CAKE is often used on the WAN interface of a residential gateway where passthrough of DSCP from the ISP is either missing or set to unhelpful values thus use of ingress DSCP values for tin selection isn't helpful in that environment. An approach to solving the ingress tin selection problem is to use CAKE's understanding of tc filters. Naive tc filters could match on source/destination port numbers and force tin selection that way, but multiple filters don't scale particularly well as each filter must be traversed whether it matches or not. e.g. a simple example to map 3 firewall marks to tins: MAJOR=$( tc qdisc show dev $DEV | head -1 | awk '{print $3}' ) tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x01 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}1 tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x02 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}2 tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x03 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}3 Another option is to use eBPF cls_act with tc filters e.g. MAJOR=$( tc qdisc show dev $DEV | head -1 | awk '{print $3}' ) tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR bpf da obj my-bpf-fwmark-to-class.o This has the disadvantages of a) needing someone to write & maintain the bpf program, b) a bpf toolchain to compile it and c) needing to hardcode the major number in the bpf program so it matches the cake instance (or forcing the cake instance to a particular major number) since the major number cannot be passed to the bpf program via tc command line. As already hinted at by the previous examples, it would be helpful to associate tins with something that survives the Internet path and ideally allows tin selection on both egress and ingress. Netfilter's conntrack permits setting an identifying mark on a connection which can also be restored to an ingress packet with tc action connmark e.g. tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol all prio 10 u32 \ match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 action connmark action mirred egress redirect dev ifb1 Since tc's connmark action has restored any connmark into skb->mark, any of the previous solutions are based upon it and in one form or another copy that mark to the skb->priority field where again CAKE picks this up. This change cuts out at least one of the (less intuitive & non-scalable) middlemen and permit direct access to skb->mark.

bpf: add bpf helper bpf_skb_ecn_set_ce
This patch adds a new bpf helper BPF_FUNC_skb_ecn_set_ce "int bpf_skb_ecn_set_ce(struct sk_buff *skb)". It is added to BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB typed bpf_prog which currently can be attached to the ingress and egress path. The helper is needed because his type of bpf_prog cannot modify the skb directly. This helper is used to set the ECN field of ECN capable IP packets to ce (congestion encountered) in the IPv6 or IPv4 header of the skb. It can be used by a bpf_prog to manage egress or ingress network bandwdith limit per cgroupv2 by inducing an ECN response in the TCP sender. This works best when using DCTCP.

io_uring: add submission polling
This enables an application to do IO, without ever entering the kernel. By using the SQ ring to fill in new sqes and watching for completions on the CQ ring, we can submit and reap IOs without doing a single system call. The kernel side thread will poll for new submissions, and in case of HIPRI/polled IO, it'll also poll for completions. By default, we allow 1 second of active spinning. This can by changed by passing in a different grace period at io_uring_register(2) time. If the thread exceeds this idle time without having any work to do, it will set: sq_ring->flags |= IORING_SQ_NEED_WAKEUP. The application will have to call io_uring_enter() to start things back up again. If IO is kept busy, that will never be needed. Basically an application that has this feature enabled will guard it's io_uring_enter(2) call with: read_barrier(); if (*sq_ring->flags & IORING_SQ_NEED_WAKEUP) io_uring_enter(fd, 0, 0, IORING_ENTER_SQ_WAKEUP); instead of calling it unconditionally. It's mandatory to use fixed files with this feature. Failure to do so will result in the application getting an -EBADF CQ entry when submitting IO.

io_uring: add file set registration
We normally have to fget/fput for each IO we do on a file. Even with the batching we do, the cost of the atomic inc/dec of the file usage count adds up. This adds IORING_REGISTER_FILES, and IORING_UNREGISTER_FILES opcodes for the io_uring_register(2) system call. The arguments passed in must be an array of __s32 holding file descriptors, and nr_args should hold the number of file descriptors the application wishes to pin for the duration of the io_uring instance (or until IORING_UNREGISTER_FILES is called). When used, the application must set IOSQE_FIXED_FILE in the sqe->flags member. Then, instead of setting sqe->fd to the real fd, it sets sqe->fd to the index in the array passed in to IORING_REGISTER_FILES. Files are automatically unregistered when the io_uring instance is torn down. An application need only unregister if it wishes to register a new set of fds.

io_uring: add support for pre-mapped user IO buffers
If we have fixed user buffers, we can map them into the kernel when we setup the io_uring. That avoids the need to do get_user_pages() for each and every IO. To utilize this feature, the application must call io_uring_register() after having setup an io_uring instance, passing in IORING_REGISTER_BUFFERS as the opcode. The argument must be a pointer to an iovec array, and the nr_args should contain how many iovecs the application wishes to map. If successful, these buffers are now mapped into the kernel, eligible for IO. To use these fixed buffers, the application must use the IORING_OP_READ_FIXED and IORING_OP_WRITE_FIXED opcodes, and then set sqe->index to the desired buffer index. sqe->addr..sqe->addr+seq->len must point to somewhere inside the indexed buffer. The application may register buffers throughout the lifetime of the io_uring instance. It can call io_uring_register() with IORING_UNREGISTER_BUFFERS as the opcode to unregister the current set of buffers, and then register a new set. The application need not unregister buffers explicitly before shutting down the io_uring instance. It's perfectly valid to setup a larger buffer, and then sometimes only use parts of it for an IO. As long as the range is within the originally mapped region, it will work just fine. For now, buffers must not be file backed. If file backed buffers are passed in, the registration will fail with -1/EOPNOTSUPP. This restriction may be relaxed in the future. RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is used to check how much memory we can pin. A somewhat arbitrary 1G per buffer size is also imposed. Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

io_uring: support for IO polling
Add support for a polled io_uring instance. When a read or write is submitted to a polled io_uring, the application must poll for completions on the CQ ring through io_uring_enter(2). Polled IO may not generate IRQ completions, hence they need to be actively found by the application itself. To use polling, io_uring_setup() must be used with the IORING_SETUP_IOPOLL flag being set. It is illegal to mix and match polled and non-polled IO on an io_uring. Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

Add io_uring IO interface
The submission queue (SQ) and completion queue (CQ) rings are shared between the application and the kernel. This eliminates the need to copy data back and forth to submit and complete IO. IO submissions use the io_uring_sqe data structure, and completions are generated in the form of io_uring_cqe data structures. The SQ ring is an index into the io_uring_sqe array, which makes it possible to submit a batch of IOs without them being contiguous in the ring. The CQ ring is always contiguous, as completion events are inherently unordered, and hence any io_uring_cqe entry can point back to an arbitrary submission. Two new system calls are added for this: io_uring_setup(entries, params) Sets up an io_uring instance for doing async IO. On success, returns a file descriptor that the application can mmap to gain access to the SQ ring, CQ ring, and io_uring_sqes. io_uring_enter(fd, to_submit, min_complete, flags, sigset, sigsetsize) Initiates IO against the rings mapped to this fd, or waits for them to complete, or both. The behavior is controlled by the parameters passed in. If 'to_submit' is non-zero, then we'll try and submit new IO. If IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS is set, the kernel will wait for 'min_complete' events, if they aren't already available. It's valid to set IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS and 'min_complete' == 0 at the same time, this allows the kernel to return already completed events without waiting for them. This is useful only for polling, as for IRQ driven IO, the application can just check the CQ ring without entering the kernel. With this setup, it's possible to do async IO with a single system call. Future developments will enable polled IO with this interface, and polled submission as well. The latter will enable an application to do IO without doing ANY system calls at all. For IRQ driven IO, an application only needs to enter the kernel for completions if it wants to wait for them to occur. Each io_uring is backed by a workqueue, to support buffered async IO as well. We will only punt to an async context if the command would need to wait for IO on the device side. Any data that can be accessed directly in the page cache is done inline. This avoids the slowness issue of usual threadpools, since cached data is accessed as quickly as a sync interface.
