9p/net: fix memory leak in p9_client_create

2019-03-13T10:50:04Z

If msize is less than 4096, we should close and put trans, destroy tagpool, not just free client. This patch fixes that.

9p/net: put a lower bound on msize

2018-12-25T08:07:49Z

If the requested msize is too small (either from command line argument or from the server version reply), we won't get any work done. If it's *really* too small, nothing will work, and this got caught by syzbot recently (on a new kmem_cache_create_usercopy() call) Just set a minimum msize to 4k in both code paths, until someone complains they have a use-case for a smaller msize. We need to check in both mount option and server reply individually because the msize for the first version request would be unchecked with just a global check on clnt->msize.

iov_iter: Separate type from direction and use accessor functions

2018-10-23T23:41:07Z

In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places. Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions. Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function. The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required. Signed-off-by: David Howells

9p: potential NULL dereference

2018-10-10T00:13:20Z

p9_tag_alloc() is supposed to return error pointers, but we accidentally return a NULL here. It would cause a NULL dereference in the caller.

9p: Add refcount to p9_req_t

2018-09-07T16:39:47Z

To avoid use-after-free(s), use a refcount to keep track of the usable references to any instantiated struct p9_req_t. This commit adds p9_req_put(), p9_req_get() and p9_req_try_get() as wrappers to kref_put(), kref_get() and kref_get_unless_zero(). These are used by the client and the transports to keep track of valid requests' references. p9_free_req() is added back and used as callback by kref_put(). Add SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU as it ensures that the memory freed by kmem_cache_free() will not be reused for another type until the rcu synchronisation period is over, so an address gotten under rcu read lock is safe to inc_ref() without corrupting random memory while the lock is held.

9p: rename p9_free_req() function

2018-09-07T16:39:47Z

In sight of the next patch to add a refcount in p9_req_t, rename the p9_free_req() function in p9_release_req(). In the next patch the actual kfree will be moved to another function.

9p: add a per-client fcall kmem_cache

2018-09-07T16:39:47Z

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up end-to-end latency. The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache between different clients of the same size. Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with kmalloc directly. Some figures on two beefy VMs with Connect-IB (sriov) / trans=rdma, with ior running 32 processes in parallel doing small 32 bytes IOs: - no alloc (4.18-rc7 request cache): 65.4k req/s - non-power of two alloc, no patch: 61.6k req/s - power of two alloc, no patch: 62.2k req/s - non-power of two alloc, with patch: 64.7k req/s - power of two alloc, with patch: 65.1k req/s Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1532943263-24378-2-git-send-email-asmadeus@codewreck.org Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet Acked-by: Jun Piao Cc: Matthew Wilcox Cc: Greg Kurz

9p: embed fcall in req to round down buffer allocs

2018-09-07T16:39:45Z

'msize' is often a power of two, or at least page-aligned, so avoiding an overhead of two dozen bytes for each allocation will help the allocator do its work and reduce memory fragmentation.

9p: Use a slab for allocating requests

2018-08-29T04:39:57Z

Replace the custom batch allocation with a slab. Use an IDR to store pointers to the active requests instead of an array. We don't try to handle P9_NOTAG specially; the IDR will happily shrink all the way back once the TVERSION call has completed.
