* xattr: guard against simultaneous glibc header inclusionSerge Hallyn2014-04-032-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the glibc xattr.h header is included after the uapi header, compilation fails due to an enum re-using a #define from the uapi header. Protect against this by guarding the define and enum inclusions against each other. (See https://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2014/03/msg00029.html and https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Synchronizing_Headers for more information.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit 6307f8fee295 ("security: remove dead hook task_setgroups"), set_groups will always return zero, so we could just remove return value of set_groups. This patch reduces code size, and simplfies code to use set_groups, because we don't need to check its return value any more.

* kobject: don't block for each kobject_ueventVladimir Davydov2014-04-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently kobject_uevent has somewhat unpredictable semantics. The point is, since it may call a usermode helper and wait for it to execute (UMH_WAIT_EXEC), it is impossible to say for sure what lock dependencies it will introduce for the caller - strictly speaking it depends on what fs the binary is located on and the set of locks fork may take. There are quite a few kobject_uevent's users that do not take this into account and call it with various mutexes taken, e.g. rtnl_mutex, net_mutex, which might potentially lead to a deadlock. Since there is actually no reason to wait for the usermode helper to execute there, let's make kobject_uevent start the helper asynchronously with the aid of the UMH_NO_WAIT flag. Personally, I'm interested in this, because I really want kobject_uevent to be called under the slab_mutex in the slub implementation as it used to be some time ago, because it greatly simplifies synchronization and automatically fixes a kmemcg-related race. However, there was a deadlock detected on an attempt to call kobject_uevent under the slab_mutex (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/14/45), which was reported to be fixed by releasing the slab_mutex for kobject_uevent. Unfortunately, there was no information about who exactly blocked on the slab_mutex causing the usermode helper to stall, neither have I managed to find this out or reproduce the issue. BTW, this is not the first attempt to make kobject_uevent use UMH_NO_WAIT. Previous one was made by commit f520360d93cd ("kobject: don't block for each kobject_uevent"), but it was wrong (it passed arguments allocated on stack to async thread) so it was reverted in 05f54c13cd0c ("Revert "kobject: don't block for each kobject_uevent"."). It targeted on speeding up the boot process though.

* drop_caches: add some documentation and info messageDave Hansen2014-04-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is plenty of anecdotal evidence and a load of blog posts suggesting that using "drop_caches" periodically keeps your system running in "tip top shape". Perhaps adding some kernel documentation will increase the amount of accurate data on its use. If we are not shrinking caches effectively, then we have real bugs. Using drop_caches will simply mask the bugs and make them harder to find, but certainly does not fix them, nor is it an appropriate "workaround" to limit the size of the caches. On the contrary, there have been bug reports on issues that turned out to be misguided use of cache dropping. Dropping caches is a very drastic and disruptive operation that is good for debugging and running tests, but if it creates bug reports from production use, kernel developers should be aware of its use. Add a bit more documentation about it, a syslog message to track down abusers, and vmstat drop counters to help analyze problem reports.

* mm: remove read_cache_page_async()Sasha Levin2014-04-031-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes read_cache_page_async() which wasn't really needed anywhere and simplifies the code around it a bit. read_cache_page_async() is useful when we want to read a page into the cache without waiting for it to complete. This happens when the appropriate callback 'filler' doesn't complete its read operation and releases the page lock immediately, and instead queues a different completion routine to do that. This never actually happened anywhere in the code. read_cache_page_async() had 3 different callers: - read_cache_page() which is the sync version, it would just wait for the requested read to complete using wait_on_page_read(). - JFFS2 would call it from jffs2_gc_fetch_page(), but the filler function it supplied doesn't do any async reads, and would complete before the filler function returns - making it actually a sync read. - CRAMFS would call it using the read_mapping_page_async() wrapper, with a similar story to JFFS2 - the filler function doesn't do anything that reminds async reads and would always complete before the filler function returns. To sum it up, the code in mm/filemap.c never took advantage of having read_cache_page_async(). While there are filler callbacks that do async reads (such as the block one), we always called it with the read_cache_page(). This patch adds a mandatory wait for read to complete when adding a new page to the cache, and removes read_cache_page_async() and its wrappers.

* mm: keep page cache radix tree nodes in checkJohannes Weiner2014-04-034-9/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, page cache radix tree nodes were freed after reclaim emptied out their page pointers. But now reclaim stores shadow entries in their place, which are only reclaimed when the inodes themselves are reclaimed. This is problematic for bigger files that are still in use after they have a significant amount of their cache reclaimed, without any of those pages actually refaulting. The shadow entries will just sit there and waste memory. In the worst case, the shadow entries will accumulate until the machine runs out of memory. To get this under control, the VM will track radix tree nodes exclusively containing shadow entries on a per-NUMA node list. Per-NUMA rather than global because we expect the radix tree nodes themselves to be allocated node-locally and we want to reduce cross-node references of otherwise independent cache workloads. A simple shrinker will then reclaim these nodes on memory pressure. A few things need to be stored in the radix tree node to implement the shadow node LRU and allow tree deletions coming from the list: 1. There is no index available that would describe the reverse path from the node up to the tree root, which is needed to perform a deletion. To solve this, encode in each node its offset inside the parent. This can be stored in the unused upper bits of the same member that stores the node's height at no extra space cost. 2. The number of shadow entries needs to be counted in addition to the regular entries, to quickly detect when the node is ready to go to the shadow node LRU list. The current entry count is an unsigned int but the maximum number of entries is 64, so a shadow counter can easily be stored in the unused upper bits. 3. Tree modification needs tree lock and tree root, which are located in the address space, so store an address_space backpointer in the node. The parent pointer of the node is in a union with the 2-word rcu_head, so the backpointer comes at no extra cost as well. 4. The node needs to be linked to an LRU list, which requires a list head inside the node. This does increase the size of the node, but it does not change the number of objects that fit into a slab page.

* mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizingJohannes Weiner2014-04-032-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The VM maintains cached filesystem pages on two types of lists. One list holds the pages recently faulted into the cache, the other list holds pages that have been referenced repeatedly on that first list. The idea is to prefer reclaiming young pages over those that have shown to benefit from caching in the past. We call the recently usedbut ultimately was not significantly better than a FIFO policy and still thrashed cache based on eviction speed, rather than actual demand for cache. This patch solves one half of the problem by decoupling the ability to detect working set changes from the inactive list size. By maintaining a history of recently evicted file pages it can detect frequently used pages with an arbitrarily small inactive list size, and subsequently apply pressure on the active list based on actual demand for cache, not just overall eviction speed. Every zone maintains a counter that tracks inactive list aging speed. When a page is evicted, a snapshot of this counter is stored in the now-empty page cache radix tree slot. On refault, the minimum access distance of the page can be assessed, to evaluate whether the page should be part of the active list or not. This fixes the VM's blindness towards working set changes in excess of the inactive list. And it's the foundation to further improve the protection ability and reduce the minimum inactive list size of 50%.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point, reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty. Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check for this flag before installing shadow pages.

One list holds the pages recently faulted into the cache, the other list holds pages that have been referenced repeatedly on that first list. The idea is to prefer reclaiming young pages over those that have shown to benefit from caching in the past. We call the recently used list "inactive list" and the frequently used list "active list". Currently, the VM aims for a 1:1 ratio between the lists, which is the "perfect" trade-off between the ability to *protect* frequently used pages and the ability to *detect* frequently used pages. This means that working set changes bigger than half of cache memory go undetected and thrash indefinitely, whereas working sets bigger than half of cache memory are unprotected against used-once streams that don't even need caching. This happens on file servers and media streaming servers, where the popular files and file sections change over time. Even though the individual files might be smaller than half of memory, concurrent access to many of them may still result in their inter-reference distance being greater than half of memory. It's also been reported as a problem on database workloads that switch back and forth between tables that are bigger than half of memory. In these cases the VM never recognizes the new working set and will for the remainder of the workload thrash disk data which could easily live in memory. Historically, every reclaim scan of the inactive list also took a smaller number of pages from the tail of the active list and moved them to the head of the inactive list. This model gave established working sets more gracetime in the face of temporary use-once streams, but ultimately was not significantly better than a FIFO policy and still thrashed cache based on eviction speed, rather than actual demand for cache. This series solves the problem by maintaining a history of pages evicted from the inactive list, enabling the VM to detect frequently used pages regardless of inactive list size and facilitate working set transitions. Tests: The reported database workload is easily demonstrated on a 8G machine with two filesets a 6G. This fio workload operates on one set first, then switches to the other. The VM should obviously always cache the set that the workload is currently using. This test is based on a problem encountered by Citus Data customers: http://citusdata.com/blog/72-linux-memory-manager-and-your-big-data unpatched: db1: READ: io=98304MB, aggrb=885559KB/s, minb=885559KB/s, maxb=885559KB/s, mint= 113672msec, maxt= 113672msec db2: READ: io=98304MB, aggrb= 66169KB/s, minb= 66169KB/s, maxb= 66169KB/s, mint=1521302msec, maxt=1521302msec sdb: ios=835750/4, merge=2/1, ticks=4659739/60016, in_queue=4719203, util=98.92% real 27m15.541s user 0m19.059s sys 0m51.459s patched: db1: READ: io=98304MB, aggrb=877783KB/s, minb=877783KB/s, maxb=877783KB/s, mint=114679msec, maxt=114679msec db2: READ: io=98304MB, aggrb=397449KB/s, minb=397449KB/s, maxb=397449KB/s, mint=253273msec, maxt=253273msec sdb: ios=170587/4, merge=2/1, ticks=954910/61123, in_queue=1015923, util=90.40% real 6m8.630s user 0m14.714s sys 0m31.233s As can be seen, the unpatched kernel simply never adapts to the workingset change and db2 is stuck indefinitely with secondary storage speed. The patched kernel needs 2-3 iterations over db2 before it replaces db1 and reaches full memory speed. Given the unbounded negative affect of the existing VM behavior, these patches should be considered correctness fixes rather than performance optimizations. Another test resembles a fileserver or streaming server workload, where data in excess of memory size is accessed at different frequencies. There is very hot data accessed at a high frequency. Machines should be fitted so that the hot set of such a workload can be fully cached or all bets are off. Then there is a very big (compared to available memory) set of data that is used-once or at a very low frequency; this is what drives the inactive list and does not really benefit from caching. Lastly, there is a big set of warm data in between that is accessed at medium frequencies and benefits from caching the pages between the first and last streamer of each burst. unpatched: hot: READ: io=128000MB, aggrb=160693KB/s, minb=160693KB/s, maxb=160693KB/s, mint=815665msec, maxt=815665msec warm: READ: io= 81920MB, aggrb=109853KB/s, minb= 27463KB/s, maxb= 29244KB/s, mint=717110msec, maxt=763617msec cold: READ: io= 30720MB, aggrb= 35245KB/s, minb= 35245KB/s, maxb= 35245KB/s, mint=892530msec, maxt=892530msec sdb: ios=797960/4, merge=11763/1, ticks=4307910/796, in_queue=4308380, util=100.00% patched: hot: READ: io=128000MB, aggrb=160678KB/s, minb=160678KB/s, maxb=160678KB/s, mint=815740msec, maxt=815740msec warm: READ: io= 81920MB, aggrb=147747KB/s, minb= 36936KB/s, maxb= 40960KB/s, mint=512000msec, maxt=567767msec cold: READ: io= 30720MB, aggrb= 40960KB/s, minb= 40960KB/s, maxb= 40960KB/s, mint=768000msec, maxt=768000msec sdb: ios=596514/4, merge=9341/1, ticks=2395362/997, in_queue=2396484, util=79.18% In both kernels, the hot set is propagated to the active list and then served from cache. In both kernels, the beginning of the warm set is propagated to the active list as well, but in the unpatched case the active list eventually takes up half of memory and no new pages from the warm set get activated, despite repeated access, and despite most of the active list soon being stale. The patched kernel on the other hand detects the thrashing and manages to keep this cache window rolling through the data set. This frees up enough IO bandwidth that the cold set is served at full speed as well and disk utilization even drops by 20%. For reference, this same test was performed with the traditional demotion mechanism, where deactivation is coupled to inactive list reclaim. However, this had the same outcome as the unpatched kernel: while the warm set does indeed get activated continuously, it is forced out of the active list by inactive list pressure, which is dictated primarily by the unrelated cold set. The warm set is evicted before subsequent streamers can benefit from it, even though there would be enough space available to cache the pages of interest. Costs: Page reclaim used to shrink the radix trees but now the tree nodes are reused for shadow entries, where the cost depends heavily on the page cache access patterns. However, with workloads that maintain spatial or temporal locality, the shadow entries are either refaulted quickly or reclaimed along with the inode object itself. Workloads that will experience a memory cost increase are those that don't really benefit from caching in the first place. A more predictable alternative would be a fixed-cost separate pool of shadow entries, but this would incur relatively higher memory cost for well-behaved workloads at the benefit of cornercases. It would also make the shadow entry lookup more costly compared to storing them directly in the cache structure. Future: To simplify the merging process, this patch set is implementing thrash detection on a global per-zone level only for now, but the design is such that it can be extended to memory cgroups as well. All we need to do is store the unique cgroup ID along the node and zone identifier inside the eviction cookie to identify the lruvec. Right now we have a fixed ratio (50:50) between inactive and active list but we already have complaints about working sets exceeding half of memory being pushed out of the cache by simple streaming in the background. Ultimately, we want to adjust this ratio and allow for a much smaller inactive list. These patches are an essential step in this direction because they decouple the VMs ability to detect working set changes from the inactive list size. This would allow us to base the inactive list size on the combined readahead window size for example and potentially protect a much bigger working set. It's also a big step towards activating pages with a reuse distance larger than memory, as long as they are the most frequently used pages in the workload. This will require knowing more about the access frequency of active pages than what we measure right now, so it's also deferred in this series. Another possibility of having thrashing information would be to revisit the idea of local reclaim in the form of zero-config memory control groups. Instead of having allocating tasks go straight to global reclaim, they could try to reclaim the pages in the memcg they are part of first as long as the group is not thrashing. This would allow a user to drop e.g. a back-up job in an otherwise unconfigured memcg and it would only inflate (and possibly do global reclaim) until it has enough memory to do proper readahead. But once it reaches that point and stops thrashing it would just recycle its own used-once pages without kicking out the cache of any other tasks in the system more than necessary. This patch (of 10): Fengguang Wu's build testing spotted problems with inc_zone_state() and dec_zone_state() on UP configurations in out-of-tree patches. inc_zone_state() is declared but not defined, dec_zone_state() is missing entirely. Just like with *_zone_page_state(), they can be defined like their preemption-unsafe counterparts on UP.

* mm, hugetlb: fix race in region trackingDavidlohr Bueso2014-04-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a race condition if we map a same file on different processes. Region tracking is protected by mmap_sem and hugetlb_instantiation_mutex. When we do mmap, we don't grab a hugetlb_instantiation_mutex, but only mmap_sem (exclusively). This doesn't prevent other tasks from modifying the region structure, so it can be modified by two processes concurrently. To solve this, introduce a spinlock to resv_map and make region manipulation function grab it before they do actual work.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, to track reserved and allocated regions, we use two different ways, depending on the mapping. For MAP_SHARED, we use address_mapping's private_list and, while for MAP_PRIVATE, we use a resv_map. Now, we are preparing to change a coarse grained lock which protect a region structure to fine grained lock, and this difference hinder it. So, before changing it, unify region structure handling, consistently using a resv_map regardless of the kind of mapping.

Since the naming, get/put_mems_allowed() does suggest a mandatory pairing, rename the interface, as suggested by Mel, to resemble the seqcount interface. This gives us: read_mems_allowed_begin() and read_mems_allowed_retry(), where it is important to note that the return value of the latter call is inverted from its previous incarnation.

This can happen because even though bdi_unregister() cancels all pending flushing work, nothing really prevents new ones from being queued from balance_dirty_pages() or other places.

The fix is to introduce its own file for the PTP BPF classifier, so that PTP_1588_CLOCK and/or NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING can select it independently from each other. IXP4xx driver on ARM needs to select it as well since it does not seem to select PTP_1588_CLOCK or similar that would pull it in automatically. This also allows for hiding all of the internals of the BPF PTP program inside that file, and only exporting relevant API bits to drivers. This patch also adds a kdoc documentation of ptp_classify_raw() API to make it clear that it can return PTP_CLASS_* defines. Also, the BPF program has been translated into bpf_asm code, so that it can be more easily read and altered (extensively documented in [1]). In the kernel tree under tools/net/ we have bpf_asm and bpf_dbg tools, so the commented program can simply be translated via `./bpf_asm -c prog` where prog is a file that contains the commented code. This makes it easily readable/verifiable and when there's a need to change something, jump offsets etc do not need to be replaced manually which can be very error prone. Instead, a newly translated version via bpf_asm can simply replace the old code. I have checked opcode diffs before/after and it's the very same filter.

Thus, the new interpreter is noticeably faster than the current implementation of sk_run_filter(); mainly for two reasons: 1. Fall-through jumps: BPF jump instructions are forced to go either 'true' or 'false' branch which causes branch-miss penalty. The new BPF jump instructions have only one branch and fall-through otherwise, which fits the CPU branch predictor logic better. `perf stat` shows drastic difference for branch-misses between the old and new code. 2. Jump-threaded implementation of interpreter vs switch statement: Instead of single table-jump at the top of 'switch' statement, gcc will now generate multiple table-jump instructions, which helps CPU branch predictor logic. Note that the verification of filters is still being done through sk_chk_filter() in classical BPF format, so filters from user- or kernel space are verified in the same way as we do now, and same restrictions/constraints hold as well. We reuse current BPF JIT compilers in a way that this upgrade would even be fine as is, but nevertheless allows for a successive upgrade of BPF JIT compilers to the new format. The internal instruction set migration is being done after the probing for JIT compilation, so in case JIT compilers are able to create a native opcode image, we're going to use that, and in all other cases we're doing a follow-up migration of the BPF program's instruction set, so that it can be transparently run in the new interpreter. In short, the *internal* format extends BPF in the following way (more details can be taken from the appended documentation): - Number of registers increase from 2 to 10 - Register width increases from 32-bit to 64-bit - Conditional jt/jf targets replaced with jt/fall-through - Adds signed > and >= insns - 16 4-byte stack slots for register spill-fill replaced with up to 512 bytes of multi-use stack space - Introduction of bpf_call insn and register passing convention for zero overhead calls from/to other kernel functions - Adds arithmetic right shift and endianness conversion insns - Adds atomic_add insn - Old tax/txa insns are replaced with 'mov dst,src' insn Performance of two BPF filters generated by libpcap resp. bpf_asm was measured on x86_64, i386 and arm32 (other libpcap programs have similar performance differences): fprog #1 is taken from Documentation/networking/filter.txt: tcpdump -i eth0 port 22 -dd fprog #2 is taken from 'man tcpdump': tcpdump -i eth0 'tcp port 22 and (((ip[2:2] - ((ip[0]&0xf)<<2)) - ((tcp[12]&0xf0)>>2)) != 0)' -dd Raw performance data from BPF micro-benchmark: SK_RUN_FILTER on the same SKB (cache-hit) or 10k SKBs (cache-miss); time in ns per call, smaller is better: --x86_64-- fprog #1 fprog #1 fprog #2 fprog #2 cache-hit cache-miss cache-hit cache-miss old BPF 90 101 192 202 new BPF 31 71 47 97 old BPF jit 12 34 17 44 new BPF jit TBD --i386-- fprog #1 fprog #1 fprog #2 fprog #2 cache-hit cache-miss cache-hit cache-miss old BPF 107 136 227 252 new BPF 40 119 69 172 --arm32-- fprog #1 fprog #1 fprog #2 fprog #2 cache-hit cache-miss cache-hit cache-miss old BPF 202 300 475 540 new BPF 180 270 330 470 old BPF jit 26 182 37 202 new BPF jit TBD Thus, without changing any userland BPF filters, applications on top of AF_PACKET (or other families) such as libpcap/tcpdump, cls_bpf classifier, netfilter's xt_bpf, team driver's load-balancing mode, and many more will have better interpreter filtering performance. While we are replacing the internal BPF interpreter, we also need to convert seccomp BPF in the same step to make use of the new internal structure since it makes use of lower-level API details without being further decoupled through higher-level calls like sk_unattached_filter_{create,destroy}(), for example. Just as for normal socket filtering, also seccomp BPF experiences a time-to-verdict speedup: 05-sim-long_jumps.c of libseccomp was used as micro-benchmark: seccomp_rule_add_exact(ctx,... seccomp_rule_add_exact(ctx,... rc = seccomp_load(ctx); for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) syscall(199, 100); 'short filter' has 2 rules 'large filter' has 200 rules 'short filter' performance is slightly better on x86_64/i386/arm32 'large filter' is much faster on x86_64 and i386 and shows no difference on arm32 --x86_64-- short filter old BPF: 2.7 sec 39.12% bench libc-2.15.so [.] syscall 8.10% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter 6.31% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] system_call 5.59% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] trace_hardirqs_on_caller 4.37% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] trace_hardirqs_off_caller 3.70% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing 3.67% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] lock_is_held 3.03% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] seccomp_bpf_load new BPF: 2.58 sec 42.05% bench libc-2.15.so [.] syscall 6.91% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] system_call 6.25% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] trace_hardirqs_on_caller 6.07% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing 5.08% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter_int_seccomp --arm32-- short filter old BPF: 4.0 sec 39.92% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vector_swi 16.60% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter 14.66% bench libc-2.17.so [.] syscall 5.42% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] seccomp_bpf_load 5.10% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing new BPF: 3.7 sec 35.93% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vector_swi 21.89% bench libc-2.17.so [.] syscall 13.45% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter_int_seccomp 6.25% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing 3.96% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] syscall_trace_exit --x86_64-- large filter old BPF: 8.6 seconds 73.38% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter 10.70% bench libc-2.15.so [.] syscall 5.09% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] seccomp_bpf_load 1.97% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] system_call new BPF: 5.7 seconds 66.20% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter_int_seccomp 16.75% bench libc-2.15.so [.] syscall 3.31% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] system_call 2.88% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing --i386-- large filter old BPF: 5.4 sec new BPF: 3.8 sec --arm32-- large filter old BPF: 13.5 sec 73.88% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter 10.29% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vector_swi 6.46% bench libc-2.17.so [.] syscall 2.94% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] seccomp_bpf_load 1.19% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing 0.87% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sys_getuid new BPF: 13.5 sec 76.08% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sk_run_filter_int_seccomp 10.98% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vector_swi 5.87% bench libc-2.17.so [.] syscall 1.77% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __secure_computing 0.93% bench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sys_getuid BPF filters generated by seccomp are very branchy, so the new internal BPF performance is better than the old one.

Since all of them effectively do the very same thing and load the very same PTP/BPF filter, we can just consolidate that code by introducing ptp_classify_raw() in the time-stamping core framework which can be used in drivers. As drivers get initialized after bootstrapping the core networking subsystem, they can make use of ptp_insns wrapped through ptp_classify_raw(), which allows to simplify and remove PTP classifier setup code in drivers.

This migration is needed, as we will be internally transforming the filter to a different representation, and therefore needs to be decoupled. It is okay to do so as skb_timestamping_init() is called during initialization of the network stack in core initcall via sock_init(). This would effectively also allow for PTP filters to be jit compiled if bpf_jit_enable is set. For better readability, there are also some newlines introduced, also ptp_classify.h is only in kernel space. Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

Filter accounting mainly done through sk_filter_{un,}charge() take care of the case when sockets are being cloned through sk_clone_lock() so that removal of the filter on one socket won't result in eviction as it's still referenced by the other. These functions actually belong to net/core/filter.c and not include/net/sock.h as we want to keep all that in a central place. It's also not in fast-path so uninlining them is fine and even allows us to get rd of sk_filter_release_rcu()'s EXPORT_SYMBOL and a forward declaration. Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

| * | | | | net: filter: keep original BPF program aroundDaniel Borkmann2014-03-311-2/+13

The reason for that use case resides in commit a8fc92778080 ("sk-filter: Add ability to get socket filter program (v2)"), that is, the ability to retrieve the currently attached BPF filter from a given socket used mainly by the checkpoint-restore project, for example. Therefore, we add two helpers sk_{store,release}_orig_filter for taking care of that. In the sk_unattached_filter_create() case, there's no such possibility/requirement to retrieve a loaded BPF program. Therefore, we can spare us the work in that case. This approach will simplify and slightly speed up both, sk_get_filter() and sock_diag_put_filterinfo() handlers as we won't need to successively decode filters anymore through sk_decode_filter(). As we still need sk_decode_filter() later on, we're keeping it around. Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.
