loop: use worker per cgroup instead of kworker Patch series "Charge loop device i/o to issuing cgroup", v14. The loop device runs all i/o to the backing file on a separate kworker thread which results in all i/o being charged to the root cgroup. This allows a loop device to be used to trivially bypass resource limits and other policy. This patch series fixes this gap in accounting. A simple script to demonstrate this behavior on cgroupv2 machine: ''' #!/bin/bash set -e CGROUP=/sys/fs/cgroup/test.slice LOOP_DEV=/dev/loop0 if [[ ! -d $CGROUP ]] then sudo mkdir $CGROUP fi grep oom_kill $CGROUP/memory.events # Set a memory limit, write more than that limit to tmpfs -> OOM kill sudo unshare -m bash -c " echo \$\$ > $CGROUP/cgroup.procs; echo 0 > $CGROUP/memory.swap.max; echo 64M > $CGROUP/memory.max; mount -t tmpfs -o size=512m tmpfs /tmp; dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/file bs=1M count=256" || true grep oom_kill $CGROUP/memory.events # Set a memory limit, write more than that limit through loopback # device -> no OOM kill sudo unshare -m bash -c " echo \$\$ > $CGROUP/cgroup.procs; echo 0 > $CGROUP/memory.swap.max; echo 64M > $CGROUP/memory.max; mount -t tmpfs -o size=512m tmpfs /tmp; truncate -s 512m /tmp/backing_file losetup $LOOP_DEV /tmp/backing_file dd if=/dev/zero of=$LOOP_DEV bs=1M count=256; losetup -D $LOOP_DEV" || true grep oom_kill $CGROUP/memory.events ''' Naively charging cgroups could result in priority inversions through the single kworker thread in the case where multiple cgroups are reading/writing to the same loop device. This patch series does some minor modification to the loop driver so that each cgroup can make forward progress independently to avoid this inversion. With this patch series applied, the above script triggers OOM kills when writing through the loop device as expected. This patch (of 3): Existing uses of loop device may have multiple cgroups reading/writing to the same device. Simply charging resources for I/O to the backing file could result in priority inversion where one cgroup gets synchronously blocked, holding up all other I/O to the loop device. In order to avoid this priority inversion, we use a single workqueue where each work item is a "struct loop_worker" which contains a queue of struct loop_cmds to issue. The loop device maintains a tree mapping blk css_id -> loop_worker. This allows each cgroup to independently make forward progress issuing I/O to the backing file. There is also a single queue for I/O associated with the rootcg which can be used in cases of extreme memory shortage where we cannot allocate a loop_worker. The locking for the tree and queues is fairly heavy handed - we acquire a per-loop-device spinlock any time either is accessed. The existing implementation serializes all I/O through a single thread anyways, so I don't believe this is any worse.

block: loop: improve performance via blk-mq The conversion is a bit straightforward, and use work queue to dispatch requests of loop block, and one big change is that requests is submitted to backend file/device concurrently with work queue, so throughput may get improved much. Given write requests over same file are often run exclusively, so don't handle them concurrently for avoiding extra context switch cost, possible lock contention and work schedule cost. Also with blk-mq, there is opportunity to get loop I/O merged before submitting to backend file/device. In the following test: - base: v3.19-rc2-2041231 - loop over file in ext4 file system on SSD disk - bs: 4k, libaio, io depth: 64, O_DIRECT, num of jobs: 1 - throughput: IOPS ------------------------------------------------------ | | base | base with loop-mq | delta | ------------------------------------------------------ | randread | 1740 | 25318 | +1355%| ------------------------------------------------------ | read | 42196 | 51771 | +22.6%| ----------------------------------------------------- | randwrite | 35709 | 34624 | -3% | ----------------------------------------------------- | write | 39137 | 40326 | +3% | ----------------------------------------------------- So loop-mq can improve throughput for both read and randread, meantime, performance of write and randwrite isn't hurted basically. Another benefit is that loop driver code gets simplified much after blk-mq conversion, and the patch can be thought as cleanup too.

loop: reduce the loop_ctl_mutex scope syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for commit a160c6159d4a0cf8 ("block: add an optional probe callback to major_names") is calling the module's probe function with major_names_lock held. Fortunately, since commit 990e78116d38059c ("block: loop: fix deadlock between open and remove") stopped holding loop_ctl_mutex in lo_open(), current role of loop_ctl_mutex is to serialize access to loop_index_idr and loop_add()/loop_remove(); in other words, management of id for IDR. To avoid holding loop_ctl_mutex during whole add/remove operation, use a bool flag to indicate whether the loop device is ready for use. loop_unregister_transfer() which is called from cleanup_cryptoloop() currently has possibility of use-after-free problem due to lack of serialization between kfree() from loop_remove() from loop_control_remove() and mutex_lock() from unregister_transfer_cb(). But since lo->lo_encryption should be already NULL when this function is called due to module unload, and commit 222013f9ac30b9ce ("cryptoloop: add a deprecation warning") indicates that we will remove this function shortly, this patch updates this function to emit warning instead of checking lo->lo_encryption. Holding loop_ctl_mutex in loop_exit() is pointless, for all users must close /dev/loop-control and /dev/loop$num (in order to drop module's refcount to 0) before loop_exit() starts, and nobody can open /dev/loop-control or /dev/loop$num afterwards.

block: loop: support DIO & AIO There are at least 3 advantages to use direct I/O and AIO on read/write loop's backing file: 1) double cache can be avoided, then memory usage gets decreased a lot 2) not like user space direct I/O, there isn't cost of pinning pages 3) avoid context switch for obtaining good throughput - in buffered file read, random I/O top throughput is often obtained only if they are submitted concurrently from lots of tasks; but for sequential I/O, most of times they can be hit from page cache, so concurrent submissions often introduce unnecessary context switch and can't improve throughput much. There was such discussion[1] to use non-blocking I/O to improve the problem for application. - with direct I/O and AIO, concurrent submissions can be avoided and random read throughput can't be affected meantime xfstests(-g auto, ext4) is basically passed when running with direct I/O(aio), one exception is generic/232, but it failed in loop buffered I/O(4.2-rc6-next-20150814) too. Follows the fio test result for performance purpose: 4 jobs fio test inside ext4 file system over loop block 1) How to run - KVM: 4 VCPUs, 2G RAM - linux kernel: 4.2-rc6-next-20150814(base) with the patchset - the loop block is over one image on SSD. - linux psync, 4 jobs, size 1500M, ext4 over loop block - test result: IOPS from fio output 2) Throughput(IOPS) becomes a bit better with direct I/O(aio) ------------------------------------------------------------- test cases |randread |read |randwrite |write | ------------------------------------------------------------- base |8015 |113811 |67442 |106978 ------------------------------------------------------------- base+loop aio |8136 |125040 |67811 |111376 ------------------------------------------------------------- - somehow, it should be caused by more page cache avaiable for application or one extra page copy is avoided in case of direct I/O 3) context switch - context switch decreased by ~50% with loop direct I/O(aio) compared with loop buffered I/O(4.2-rc6-next-20150814) 4) memory usage from /proc/meminfo ------------------------------------------------------------- | Buffers | Cached ------------------------------------------------------------- base | > 760MB | ~950MB ------------------------------------------------------------- base+loop direct I/O(aio) | < 5MB | ~1.6GB ------------------------------------------------------------- - so there are much more page caches available for application with direct I/O [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/612483/ Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
