      xen/blkback: persistent-grants fixes · cb5bd4d1
      Roger Pau Monne 提交于
      This patch contains fixes for persistent grants implementation v2:
      
       * handle == 0 is a valid handle, so initialize grants in blkback
         setting the handle to BLKBACK_INVALID_HANDLE instead of 0. Reported
         by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk.
      
       * new_map is a boolean, use "true" or "false" instead of 1 and 0.
         Reported by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk.
      
       * blkfront announces the persistent-grants feature as
         feature-persistent-grants, use feature-persistent instead which is
         consistent with blkback and the public Xen headers.
      
       * Add a consistency check in blkfront to make sure we don't try to
         access segments that have not been set.

      xen/blkback: Persistent grant maps for xen blk drivers · 0a8704a5
      Roger Pau Monne 提交于
      This patch implements persistent grants for the xen-blk{front,back}
      mechanism. The effect of this change is to reduce the number of unmap
      operations performed, since they cause a (costly) TLB shootdown. This
      allows the I/O performance to scale better when a large number of VMs
      are performing I/O.
      
      Previously, the blkfront driver was supplied a bvec[] from the request
      queue. This was granted to dom0; dom0 performed the I/O and wrote
      directly into the grant-mapped memory and unmapped it; blkfront then
      removed foreign access for that grant. The cost of unmapping scales
      badly with the number of CPUs in Dom0. An experiment showed that when
      Dom0 has 24 VCPUs, and guests are performing parallel I/O to a
      ramdisk, the IPIs from performing unmap's is a bottleneck at 5 guests
      (at which point 650,000 IOPS are being performed in total). If more
      than 5 guests are used, the performance declines. By 10 guests, only
      400,000 IOPS are being performed.
      
      This patch improves performance by only unmapping when the connection
      between blkfront and back is broken.
      
      On startup blkfront notifies blkback that it is using persistent
      grants, and blkback will do the same. If blkback is not capable of
      persistent mapping, blkfront will still use the same grants, since it
      is compatible with the previous protocol, and simplifies the code
      complexity in blkfront.
      
      To perform a read, in persistent mode, blkfront uses a separate pool
      of pages that it maps to dom0. When a request comes in, blkfront
      transmutes the request so that blkback will write into one of these
      free pages. Blkback keeps note of which grefs it has already
      mapped. When a new ring request comes to blkback, it looks to see if
      it has already mapped that page. If so, it will not map it again. If
      the page hasn't been previously mapped, it is mapped now, and a record
      is kept of this mapping. Blkback proceeds as usual. When blkfront is
      notified that blkback has completed a request, it memcpy's from the
      shared memory, into the bvec supplied. A record that the {gref, page}
      tuple is mapped, and not inflight is kept.
      
      Writes are similar, except that the memcpy is peformed from the
      supplied bvecs, into the shared pages, before the request is put onto
      the ring.
      
      Blkback stores a mapping of grefs=>{page mapped to by gref} in
      a red-black tree. As the grefs are not known apriori, and provide no
      guarantees on their ordering, we have to perform a search
      through this tree to find the page, for every gref we receive. This
      operation takes O(log n) time in the worst case. In blkfront grants
      are stored using a single linked list.
      
      The maximum number of grants that blkback will persistenly map is
      currently set to RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST, to
      prevent a malicios guest from attempting a DoS, by supplying fresh
      grefs, causing the Dom0 kernel to map excessively. If a guest
      is using persistent grants and exceeds the maximum number of grants to
      map persistenly the newly passed grefs will be mapped and unmaped.
      Using this approach, we can have requests that mix persistent and
      non-persistent grants, and we need to handle them correctly.
      This allows us to set the maximum number of persistent grants to a
      lower value than RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST, although
      setting it will lead to unpredictable performance.
      
      In writing this patch, the question arrises as to if the additional
      cost of performing memcpys in the guest (to/from the pool of granted
      pages) outweigh the gains of not performing TLB shootdowns. The answer
      to that question is `no'. There appears to be very little, if any
      additional cost to the guest of using persistent grants. There is
      perhaps a small saving, from the reduced number of hypercalls
      performed in granting, and ending foreign access.

      percpu-rw-semaphores: use rcu_read_lock_sched · 1bf11c53
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched / synchronize_sched
      instead of rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock / synchronize_rcu.
      
      This is an optimization. The RCU-protected region is very small, so
      there will be no latency problems if we disable preempt in this region.
      
      So we use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched that translates
      to preempt_disable / preempt_disable. It is smaller (and supposedly
      faster) than preemptible rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock.

      VFS: don't do protected {sym,hard}links by default · 561ec64a
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      In commit 800179c9 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
      the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
      the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
      technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.
      
      However, it does turn out to break some applications.  It's rare, and
      it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
      we'll have to default to legacy behavior.
      
      In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see
      
        http://www.dwd.de/AFD/
      
      along with some legacy scripts.
      
      Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
      scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
      early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
      setting. Do:
      
      	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
      	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks
      
      to re-enable the link protections.
      
      Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
      that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
      options automatically.
