[PATCH v3 0/2] Add test to distinguish between thread's signal mask and ucontext_t

by Dev Jain

This patch series is motivated by the following observation: Raise a signal, jump to signal handler. The ucontext_t structure dumped by kernel to userspace has a uc_sigmask field having the mask of blocked signals. If you run a fresh minimalistic program doing this, this field is empty, even if you block some signals while registering the handler with sigaction(). Here is what the man-pages have to say: sigaction(2): "sa_mask specifies a mask of signals which should be blocked (i.e., added to the signal mask of the thread in which the signal handler is invoked) during execution of the signal handler. In addition, the signal which triggered the handler will be blocked, unless the SA_NODEFER flag is used." signal(7): Under "Execution of signal handlers", (1.3) implies: "The thread's current signal mask is accessible via the ucontext_t object that is pointed to by the third argument of the signal handler." But, (1.4) states: "Any signals specified in act->sa_mask when registering the handler with sigprocmask(2) are added to the thread's signal mask. The signal being delivered is also added to the signal mask, unless SA_NODEFER was specified when registering the handler. These signals are thus blocked while the handler executes." There clearly is no distinction being made in the man pages between "Thread's signal mask" and ucontext_t; this logically should imply that a signal blocked by populating struct sigaction should be visible in ucontext_t. Here is what the kernel code does (for Aarch64): do_signal() -> handle_signal() -> sigmask_to_save(), which returns &current->blocked, is passed to setup_rt_frame() -> setup_sigframe() -> __copy_to_user(). Hence, &current->blocked is copied to ucontext_t exposed to userspace. Returning back to handle_signal(), signal_setup_done() -> signal_delivered() -> sigorsets() and set_current_blocked() are responsible for using information from struct ksignal ksig, which was populated through the sigaction() system call in kernel/signal.c: copy_from_user(&new_sa.sa, act, sizeof(new_sa.sa)), to update &current->blocked; hence, the set of blocked signals for the current thread is updated AFTER the kernel dumps ucontext_t to userspace. Assuming that the above is indeed the intended behaviour, because it semantically makes sense, since the signals blocked using sigaction() remain blocked only till the execution of the handler, and not in the context present before jumping to the handler (but nothing can be confirmed from the man-pages), the series introduces a test for mangling with uc_sigmask. I will send a separate series to fix the man-pages. The proposed selftest has been tested out on Aarch32, Aarch64 and x86_64. v2->v3: - ucontext describes current state -> ucontext describes interrupted context - Add a comment for blockage of USR2 even after return from handler - Describe blockage of signals in a better way v1->v2: - Replace all occurrences of SIGPIPE with SIGSEGV - Fixed a mismatch between code comment and ksft log - Add a testcase: Raise the same signal again; it must not be queued - Remove unneeded <assert.h>, <unistd.h> - Give a detailed test description in the comments; also describe the exact meaning of delivered and blocked - Handle errors for all libc functions/syscalls - Mention tests in Makefile and .gitignore in alphabetical order v1: - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240607122319.768640-1-dev.jain@arm.com/ Dev Jain (2): selftests: Rename sigaltstack to generic signal selftests: Add a test mangling with uc_sigmask tools/testing/selftests/Makefile | 2 +- .../{sigaltstack => signal}/.gitignore | 3 +- .../{sigaltstack => signal}/Makefile | 3 +- .../current_stack_pointer.h | 0 .../selftests/signal/mangle_uc_sigmask.c | 194 ++++++++++++++++++ .../sas.c => signal/sigaltstack.c} | 0 6 files changed, 199 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) rename tools/testing/selftests/{sigaltstack => signal}/.gitignore (57%) rename tools/testing/selftests/{sigaltstack => signal}/Makefile (53%) rename tools/testing/selftests/{sigaltstack => signal}/current_stack_pointer.h (100%) create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/signal/mangle_uc_sigmask.c rename tools/testing/selftests/{sigaltstack/sas.c => signal/sigaltstack.c} (100%) -- 2.34.1

[PATCH v3 1/3] Fix userfaultfd_api to return EINVAL as expected

Currently if we request a feature that is not set in the Kernel config we fail silently and return all the available features. However, the man page indicates we should return an EINVAL. We need to fix this issue since we can end up with a Kernel warning should a program request the feature UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED on a kernel with the config not set with this feature.

by Mina Almasry

v13: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=861406&archive=… ==== Major changes: -------------- This iteration addresses Pavel's review comments, applies his reviewed-by's, and seeks to fix the patchwork build error (sorry!). As usual, the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver implementation is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v13/ v12: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=859747&state=* ==== Major changes: -------------- This iteration only addresses one minor comment from Pavel with regards to the trace printing of netmem, and the patchwork build error introduced in v11 because I missed doing an allmodconfig build, sorry. Other than that v11, AFAICT, received no feedback. There is one discussion about how the specifics of plugging io uring memory through the page pool, but not relevant to content in this particular patchset, AFAICT. As usual, the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver implementation is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v12/ v11: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=857457&state=* ==== Major Changes: -------------- v11 addresses feedback received in v10. The major change is the removal of the memory provider ops as requested by Christoph. We still accomplish the same thing, but utilizing direct function calls with if statements rather than generic ops. Additionally address sparse warnings, bugs and review comments from folks that reviewed. As usual, the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver implementation is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v11/ Detailed changelog: ------------------- - Fixes in netdev_rx_queue_restart() from Pavel & David. - Remove commit e650e8c3a36f5 ("net: page_pool: create hooks for custom page providers") from the series to address Christoph's feedback and rebased other patches on the series on this change. - Fixed build errors with CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER && !CONFIG_GENERIC_ALLOCATOR build. - Fixed sparse warnings pointed out by Paolo. - Drop unnecessary gro_pull_from_frag0 checks. - Added Bagas reviewed-by to docs.

Only rebased to latest net-next and addressed some minor iterative comments received on v9. As usual, the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver implementation is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v10/ Detailed changelog: ------------------- - Fixed tokens leaking in DONTNEED setsockopt (Nikolay). - Moved net_iov_dma_addr() to devmem.c and made it a devmem specific helpers (David). - Rename hook alloc_pages to alloc_netmems as alloc_pages is now preprocessor macro defined and causes a build error. v9: === Major Changes: -------------- GVE queue API has been merged. Submitting this version as non-RFC after rebasing on top of the merged API, and dropped the out of tree queue API I was carrying on github. Addressed the little feedback v8 has received. Detailed changelog: ------------------ - Added new patch from David Wei to this series for netdev_rx_queue_restart() - Fixed sparse error. - Removed CONFIG_ checks in netmem_is_net_iov() - Flipped skb->readable to skb->unreadable - Minor fixes to selftests & docs. RFC v8: ======= Major Changes: -------------- - Fixed build error generated by patch-by-patch build. - Applied docs suggestions from Randy. RFC v7: ======= Major Changes: -------------- This revision largely rebases on top of net-next and addresses the feedback RFCv6 received from folks, namely Jakub, Yunsheng, Arnd, David, & Pavel. The series remains in RFC because the queue-API ndos defined in this series are not yet implemented. I have a GVE implementation I carry out of tree for my testing. A upstreamable GVE implementation is in the works. Aside from that, in my estimation all the patches are ready for review/merge. Please do take a look. As usual the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver implementation is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v7/ Detailed changelog: - Use admin-perm in netlink API. - Addressed feedback from Jakub with regards to netlink API implementation. - Renamed devmem.c functions to something more appropriate for that file. - Improve the performance seen through the page_pool benchmark. - Fix the value definition of all the SO_DEVMEM_* uapi. - Various fixes to documentation. Perf - page-pool benchmark: --------------------------- Improved performance of bench_page_pool_simple.ko tests compared to v6: https://pastebin.com/raw/v5dYRg8L net-next base: 8 cycle fast path. RFC v6: 10 cycle fast path. RFC v7: 9 cycle fast path. RFC v7 with CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER disabled: 8 cycle fast path, same as baseline. Perf - Devmem TCP benchmark: --------------------- Perf is about the same regardless of the changes in v7, namely the removal of the static_branch_unlikely to improve the page_pool benchmark performance: 189/200gbps bi-directional throughput with RX devmem TCP and regular TCP TX i.e. ~95% line rate. RFC v6: ======= Major Changes: -------------- This revision largely rebases on top of net-next and addresses the little feedback RFCv5 received. The series remains in RFC because the queue-API ndos defined in this series are not yet implemented. I have a GVE implementation I carry out of tree for my testing. A upstreamable GVE implementation is in the works. Aside from that, in my estimation all the patches are ready for review/merge. Please do take a look. As usual the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver implementation is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v6/ This version also comes with some performance data recorded in the cover letter (see below changelog). Detailed changelog: - Rebased on top of the merged netmem_ref changes. - Converted skb->dmabuf to skb->readable (Pavel). Pavel's original suggestion was to remove the skb->dmabuf flag entirely, but when I looked into it closely, I found the issue that if we remove the flag we have to dereference the shinfo(skb) pointer to obtain the first frag to tell whether an skb is readable or not. This can cause a performance regression if it dirties the cache line when the shinfo(skb) was not really needed. Instead, I converted the skb->dmabuf flag into a generic skb->readable flag which can be re-used by io_uring 0-copy RX. - Squashed a few locking optimizations from Eric Dumazet in the RX path and the DEVMEM_DONTNEED setsockopt. - Expanded the tests a bit. Added validation for invalid scenarios and added some more coverage. Perf - page-pool benchmark: --------------------------- bench_page_pool_simple.ko tests with and without these changes: https://pastebin.com/raw/ncHDwAbn AFAIK the number that really matters in the perf tests is the 'tasklet_page_pool01_fast_path Per elem'. This one measures at about 8 cycles without the changes but there is some 1 cycle noise in some results. With the patches this regresses to 9 cycles with the changes but there is 1 cycle noise occasionally running this test repeatedly. Lastly I tried disable the static_branch_unlikely() in netmem_is_net_iov() check. To my surprise disabling the static_branch_unlikely() check reduces the fast path back to 8 cycles, but the 1 cycle noise remains. Perf - Devmem TCP benchmark: --------------------- 189/200gbps bi-directional throughput with RX devmem TCP and regular TCP TX i.e. ~95% line rate. Major changes in RFC v5: ======================== 1. Rebased on top of 'Abstract page from net stack' series and used the new netmem type to refer to LSB set pointers instead of re-using struct page. 2. Downgraded this series back to RFC and called it RFC v5. This is because this series is now dependent on 'Abstract page from net stack'[1] and the queue API. Both are removed from the series to reduce the patch # and those bits are fairly independent or pre-requisite work. 3. Reworked the page_pool devmem support to use netmem and for some more unified handling. 4. Reworked the reference counting of net_iov (renamed from page_pool_iov) to use pp_ref_count for refcounting. The full changes including the dependent series and GVE page pool support is here: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-rfcv5/ [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=810774 Major changes in v1: ==================== 1. Implemented MVP queue API ndos to remove the userspace-visible driver reset. 2. Fixed issues in the napi_pp_put_page() devmem frag unref path. 3. Removed RFC tag. Many smaller addressed comments across all the patches (patches have individual change log). Full tree including the rest of the GVE driver changes: https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v1 Changes in RFC v3: ================== 1. Pulled in the memory-provider dependency from Jakub's RFC[1] to make the series reviewable and mergeable. 2. Implemented multi-rx-queue binding which was a todo in v2. 3. Fix to cmsg handling. The sticking point in RFC v2[2] was the device reset required to refill the device rx-queues after the dmabuf bind/unbind. The solution suggested as I understand is a subset of the per-queue management ops Jakub suggested or similar: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230815171638.4c057dcd@kernel.org/ This is not addressed in this revision, because: 1. This point was discussed at netconf & netdev and there is openness to using the current approach of requiring a device reset. 2. Implementing individual queue resetting seems to be difficult for my test bed with GVE. My prototype to test this ran into issues with the rx-queues not coming back up properly if reset individually. At the moment I'm unsure if it's a mistake in the POC or a genuine issue in the virtualization stack behind GVE, which currently doesn't test individual rx-queue restart. 3. Our usecases are not bothered by requiring a device reset to refill the buffer queues, and we'd like to support NICs that run into this limitation with resetting individual queues. My thought is that drivers that have trouble with per-queue configs can use the support in this series, while drivers that support new netdev ops to reset individual queues can automatically reset the queue as part of the dma-buf bind/unbind. The same approach with device resets is presented again for consideration with other sticking points addressed. This proposal includes the rx devmem path only proposed for merge. For a snapshot of my entire tree which includes the GVE POC page pool support & device memory support: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/compare/master...mina:linux:tcpdevmem-v3 [1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/f8270765-a27b-6ccf-33ea-cda097168d79@redhat.… [2] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CAHS8izOVJGJH5WF68OsRWFKJid1_huzzUK+hpKbLcL4… Changes in RFC v2: ================== The sticking point in RFC v1[1] was the dma-buf pages approach we used to deliver the device memory to the TCP stack. RFC v2 is a proof-of-concept that attempts to resolve this by implementing scatterlist support in the networking stack, such that we can import the dma-buf scatterlist directly. This is the approach proposed at a high level here[2]. Detailed changes: 1. Replaced dma-buf pages approach with importing scatterlist into the page pool. 2. Replace the dma-buf pages centric API with a netlink API. 3. Removed the TX path implementation - there is no issue with implementing the TX path with scatterlist approach, but leaving out the TX path makes it easier to review. 4. Functionality is tested with this proposal, but I have not conducted perf testing yet. I'm not sure there are regressions, but I removed perf claims from the cover letter until they can be re-confirmed. 5. Added Signed-off-by: contributors to the implementation. 6. Fixed some bugs with the RX path since RFC v1. Any feedback welcome, but specifically the biggest pending questions needing feedback IMO are: 1. Feedback on the scatterlist-based approach in general. 2. Netlink API (Patch 1 & 2). 3. Approach to handle all the drivers that expect to receive pages from the page pool (Patch 6). [1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/dfe4bae7-13a0-3c5d-d671-f61b375cb0b4@gmail.c… [2] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CAHS8izPm6XRS54LdCDZVd0C75tA1zHSu6jLVO8nzTLX… ================== * TL;DR: Device memory TCP (devmem TCP) is a proposal for transferring data to and/or from device memory efficiently, without bouncing the data to a host memory buffer. * Problem: A large amount of data transfers have device memory as the source and/or destination. Accelerators drastically increased the volume of such transfers. Some examples include: - ML accelerators transferring large amounts of training data from storage into GPU/TPU memory. In some cases ML training setup time can be as long as 50% of TPU compute time, improving data transfer throughput & efficiency can help improving GPU/TPU utilization. - Distributed training, where ML accelerators, such as GPUs on different hosts, exchange data among them. - Distributed raw block storage applications transfer large amounts of data with remote SSDs, much of this data does not require host processing. Today, the majority of the Device-to-Device data transfers the network are implemented as the following low level operations: Device-to-Host copy, Host-to-Host network transfer, and Host-to-Device copy. The implementation is suboptimal, especially for bulk data transfers, and can put significant strains on system resources, such as host memory bandwidth, PCIe bandwidth, etc. One important reason behind the current state is the kernel’s lack of semantics to express device to network transfers. * Proposal: In this patch series we attempt to optimize this use case by implementing socket APIs that enable the user to: 1. send device memory across the network directly, and 2. receive incoming network packets directly into device memory. Packet _payloads_ go directly from the NIC to device memory for receive and from device memory to NIC for transmit. Packet _headers_ go to/from host memory and are processed by the TCP/IP stack normally. The NIC _must_ support header split to achieve this. Advantages: - Alleviate host memory bandwidth pressure, compared to existing network-transfer + device-copy semantics. - Alleviate PCIe BW pressure, by limiting data transfer to the lowest level of the PCIe tree, compared to traditional path which sends data through the root complex. * Patch overview: ** Part 1: netlink API Gives user ability to bind dma-buf to an RX queue. ** Part 2: scatterlist support Currently the standard for device memory sharing is DMABUF, which doesn't generate struct pages. On the other hand, networking stack (skbs, drivers, and page pool) operate on pages. We have 2 options: 1. Generate struct pages for dmabuf device memory, or, 2. Modify the networking stack to process scatterlist. Approach #1 was attempted in RFC v1. RFC v2 implements approach #2. ** part 3: page pool support We piggy back on page pool memory providers proposal: https://github.com/kuba-moo/linux/tree/pp-providers It allows the page pool to define a memory provider that provides the page allocation and freeing. It helps abstract most of the device memory TCP changes from the driver. ** part 4: support for unreadable skb frags Page pool iovs are not accessible by the host; we implement changes throughput the networking stack to correctly handle skbs with unreadable frags. ** Part 5: recvmsg() APIs We define user APIs for the user to send and receive device memory. Not included with this series is the GVE devmem TCP support, just to simplify the review. Code available here if desired: https://github.com/mina/linux/tree/tcpdevmem This series is built on top of net-next with Jakub's pp-providers changes cherry-picked. * NIC dependencies: 1. (strict) Devmem TCP require the NIC to support header split, i.e. the capability to split incoming packets into a header + payload and to put each into a separate buffer. Devmem TCP works by using device memory for the packet payload, and host memory for the packet headers. 2. (optional) Devmem TCP works better with flow steering support & RSS support, i.e. the NIC's ability to steer flows into certain rx queues. This allows the sysadmin to enable devmem TCP on a subset of the rx queues, and steer devmem TCP traffic onto these queues and non devmem TCP elsewhere. The NIC I have access to with these properties is the GVE with DQO support running in Google Cloud, but any NIC that supports these features would suffice. I may be able to help reviewers bring up devmem TCP on their NICs. * Testing: The series includes a udmabuf kselftest that show a simple use case of devmem TCP and validates the entire data path end to end without a dependency on a specific dmabuf provider. ** Test Setup Kernel: net-next with this series and memory provider API cherry-picked locally. Hardware: Google Cloud A3 VMs. NIC: GVE with header split & RSS & flow steering support.

[PATCH v2 1/3] Fix userfaultfd_api to return EINVAL as expected

by Audra Mitchell

Currently if we request a feature that is not set in the Kernel config we fail silently and return all the available features. However, the man page indicates we should return an EINVAL. We need to fix this issue since we can end up with a Kernel warning should a program request the feature UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED on a kernel with the config not set with this feature.
