xprtrdma: Initialize separate RPC call and reply buffers · 9c40c49f

由 Chuck Lever 提交于 9月 15, 2016

RPC-over-RDMA needs to separate its RPC call and reply buffers.

 o When an RPC Call is sent, rq_snd_buf is DMA mapped for an RDMA
   Send operation using DMA_TO_DEVICE

 o If the client expects a large RPC reply, it DMA maps rq_rcv_buf
   as part of a Reply chunk using DMA_FROM_DEVICE

The two mappings are for data movement in opposite directions.

DMA-API.txt suggests that if these mappings share a DMA cacheline,
bad things can happen. This could occur in the final bytes of
rq_snd_buf and the first bytes of rq_rcv_buf if the two buffers
happen to share a DMA cacheline.

On x86_64 the cacheline size is typically 8 bytes, and RPC call
messages are usually much smaller than the send buffer, so this
hasn't been a noticeable problem. But the DMA cacheline size can be
larger on other platforms.

Also, often rq_rcv_buf starts most of the way into a page, thus
an additional RDMA segment is needed to map and register the end of
that buffer. Try to avoid that scenario to reduce the cost of
registering and invalidating Reply chunks.

Instead of carrying a single regbuf that covers both rq_snd_buf and
rq_rcv_buf, each struct rpcrdma_req now carries one regbuf for
rq_snd_buf and one regbuf for rq_rcv_buf.

Some incidental changes worth noting:

- To clear out some spaghetti, refactor xprt_rdma_allocate.
- The value stored in rg_size is the same as the value stored in
  the iov.length field, so eliminate rg_size

SUNRPC: Add a transport-specific private field in rpc_rqst · 5a6d1db4

由 Chuck Lever 提交于 9月 15, 2016

Currently there's a hidden and indirect mechanism for finding the
rpcrdma_req that goes with an rpc_rqst. It depends on getting from
the rq_buffer pointer in struct rpc_rqst to the struct
rpcrdma_regbuf that controls that buffer, and then to the struct
rpcrdma_req it goes with.

This was done back in the day to avoid the need to add a per-rqst
pointer or to alter the buf_free API when support for RPC-over-RDMA
was introduced.

I'm about to change the way regbuf's work to support larger inline
thresholds. Now is a good time to replace this indirect mechanism
with something that is more straightforward. I guess this should be
considered a clean up.

SUNRPC: Separate buffer pointers for RPC Call and Reply messages · 68778945

由 Chuck Lever 提交于 9月 15, 2016

For xprtrdma, the RPC Call and Reply buffers are involved in real
I/O operations.

To start with, the DMA direction of the I/O for a Call is opposite
that of a Reply.

In the current arrangement, the Reply buffer address is on a
four-byte alignment just past the call buffer. Would be friendlier
on some platforms if that was at a DMA cache alignment instead.

Because the current arrangement allocates a single memory region
which contains both buffers, the RPC Reply buffer often contains a
page boundary in it when the Call buffer is large enough (which is
frequent).

It would be a little nicer for setting up DMA operations (and
possible registration of the Reply buffer) if the two buffers were
separated, well-aligned, and contained as few page boundaries as
possible.

Now, I could just pad out the single memory region used for the pair
of buffers. But frequently that would mean a lot of unused space to
ensure the Reply buffer did not have a page boundary.

Add a separate pointer to rpc_rqst that points right to the RPC
Reply buffer. This makes no difference to xprtsock, but it will help
xprtrdma in subsequent patches.

SUNRPC: Generalize the RPC buffer release API · 3435c74a

由 Chuck Lever 提交于 9月 15, 2016

xprtrdma needs to allocate the Call and Reply buffers separately.
TBH, the reliance on using a single buffer for the pair of XDR
buffers is transport implementation-specific.

Instead of passing just the rq_buffer into the buf_free method, pass
the task structure and let buf_free take care of freeing both
XDR buffers at once.

There's a micro-optimization here. In the common case, both
xprt_release and the transport's buf_free method were checking if
rq_buffer was NULL. Now the check is done only once per RPC.

SUNRPC: Generalize the RPC buffer allocation API · 5fe6eaa1

由 Chuck Lever 提交于 9月 15, 2016

xprtrdma needs to allocate the Call and Reply buffers separately.
TBH, the reliance on using a single buffer for the pair of XDR
buffers is transport implementation-specific.

Transports that want to allocate separate Call and Reply buffers
will ignore the "size" argument anyway.  Don't bother passing it.

The buf_alloc method can't return two pointers. Instead, make the
method's return value an error code, and set the rq_buffer pointer
in the method itself.

This gives call_allocate an opportunity to terminate an RPC instead
of looping forever when a permanent problem occurs. If a request is
just bogus, or the transport is in a state where it can't allocate
resources for any request, there needs to be a way to kill the RPC
right there and not loop.

This immediately fixes a rare problem in the backchannel send path,
which loops if the server happens to send a CB request whose
call+reply size is larger than a page (which it shouldn't do yet).

One more issue: looks like xprt_inject_disconnect was incorrectly
placed in the failure path in call_allocate. It needs to be in the
success path, as it is for other call-sites.

SUNRPC: Refactor rpc_xdr_buf_init() · b9c5bc03

由 Chuck Lever 提交于 9月 15, 2016

Clean up: there is some XDR initialization logic that is common
to the forward channel and backchannel. Move it to an XDR header
so it can be shared.

rpc_rqst::rq_buffer points to a buffer containing big-endian data.
Update its annotation as part of the clean up.
