[PATCH v3 bpf-next 2/5] bpf: Use bpf_mem_cache_alloc/free in bpf_local_storage_elem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Martin KaFai Lau <martin.lau@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch uses bpf_mem_alloc for the task and cgroup local storage that
the bpf prog can easily get a hold of the storage owner's PTR_TO_BTF_ID.
eg. bpf_get_current_task_btf() can be used in some of the kmalloc code
path which will cause deadlock/recursion. bpf_mem_cache_alloc is
deadlock free and will solve a legit use case in [1].

For sk storage, its batch creation benchmark shows a few percent
regression when the sk create/destroy batch size is larger than 32.
The sk creation/destruction happens much more often and
depends on external traffic. Considering it is hypothetical
to be able to cause deadlock with sk storage, it can cross
the bridge to use bpf_mem_alloc till a legit (ie. useful)
use case comes up.

For inode storage, bpf_local_storage_destroy() is called before
waiting for a rcu gp and its memory cannot be reused immediately.
inode stays with kmalloc/kfree after the rcu [or tasks_trace] gp.

A 'bool bpf_ma' argument is added to bpf_local_storage_map_alloc().
Only task and cgroup storage have 'bpf_ma == true' which
means to use bpf_mem_cache_alloc/free(). This patch only changes
selem to use bpf_mem_alloc for task and cgroup. The next patch
will change the local_storage to use bpf_mem_alloc also for
task and cgroup.

Here is some more details on the changes:

* memory allocation:
After bpf_mem_cache_alloc(), the SDATA(selem)->data is zero-ed because
bpf_mem_cache_alloc() could return a reused selem. It is to keep
the existing bpf_map_kzalloc() behavior. Only SDATA(selem)->data
is zero-ed. SDATA(selem)->data is the visible part to the bpf prog.
No need to use zero_map_value() to do the zeroing because
bpf_selem_free(..., reuse_now = true) ensures no bpf prog is using
the selem before returning the selem through bpf_mem_cache_free().
For the internal fields of selem, they will be initialized when
linking to the new smap and the new local_storage.

When 'bpf_ma == false', nothing changes in this patch. It will
stay with the bpf_map_kzalloc().

* memory free:
The bpf_selem_free() and bpf_selem_free_rcu() are modified to handle
the bpf_ma == true case.

For the common selem free path where its owner is also being destroyed,
the mem is freed in bpf_local_storage_destroy(), the owner (task
and cgroup) has gone through a rcu gp. The memory can be reused
immediately, so bpf_local_storage_destroy() will call
bpf_selem_free(..., reuse_now = true) which will do
bpf_mem_cache_free() for immediate reuse consideration.

An exception is the delete elem code path. The delete elem code path
is called from the helper bpf_*_storage_delete() and the syscall
bpf_map_delete_elem(). This path is an unusual case for local
storage because the common use case is to have the local storage
staying with its owner life time so that the bpf prog and the user
space does not have to monitor the owner's destruction. For the delete
elem path, the selem cannot be reused immediately because there could
be bpf prog using it. It will call bpf_selem_free(..., reuse_now = false)
and it will wait for a rcu tasks trace gp before freeing the elem. The
rcu callback is changed to do bpf_mem_cache_raw_free() instead of kfree().

When 'bpf_ma == false', it should be the same as before.
__bpf_selem_free() is added to do the kfree_rcu and call_tasks_trace_rcu().
A few words on the 'reuse_now == true'. When 'reuse_now == true',
it is still racing with bpf_local_storage_map_free which is under rcu
protection, so it still needs to wait for a rcu gp instead of kfree().
Otherwise, the selem may be reused by slab for a totally different struct
while the bpf_local_storage_map_free() is still using it (as a
rcu reader). For the inode case, there may be other rcu readers also.
In short, when bpf_ma == false and reuse_now == true => vanilla rcu.
