Recently, we noticed an issue where a process went into direct reclaim
while holding the kernfs rw semaphore for sysfs in write(exclusive)
mode. This caused processes who were doing DMA-BUF exports and releases
to go into uninterruptible sleep since they needed to acquire the same
semaphore for the DMA-BUF sysfs entry creation/deletion. In order to avoid
blocking DMA-BUF export/release for an indeterminate amount of time
while another process is holding the sysfs rw semaphore in exclusive
mode, this patch moves the per-buffer sysfs file creation/deleteion to
a kthread.
Well I absolutely don't think that this is justified.

You adding tons of complexity here just to avoid the overhead of
creating the sysfs files while exporting DMA-bufs which is an operation
which should be done exactly once in the lifecycle for the most common
use case.

Please explain further why that should be necessary.
Hi Christian,

We noticed that the issue sometimes causes the exporting process to go
to the uninterrupted sleep state for tens of milliseconds which
unfortunately leads to user-perceptible UI jank. This is the reason
why we are trying to move the sysfs entry creation and deletion out of
the DMA-BUF export/release path. I will update the commit message to
include the same in the next revision.
That is still not a justification for this change. The question is why
do you need that in the first place?

Exporting a DMA-buf should be something would should be very rarely,
e.g. only at the start of an application.
Hi Christian,

Yes, that is correct. Noticeable jank caused by the issue is not
present at all times and happens on UI transitions(for example during
app launches and exits) when there are several DMA-BUFs being exported
and released. This is especially true in the case of the camera app
since it exports and releases a relatively larger number of DMA-BUFs
during launch and exit respectively.
Well, that sounds at least better than before.

Hridya

So this strongly looks like you are trying to optimize for an use case
where we should probably rethink what userspace is doing here instead.
Hello Christian,

If you don't mind, could you please elaborate on the above statement?
The purpose of DMA-buf is to share a rather low number of buffers
between different drivers and/or applications.

For example with triple buffering we have three buffers shared between
the camera driver and the display driver, same thing for use cases
between rendering and display.

So even when you have ~100 applications open your should not share more
than ~300 DMA-buf handles and doing that should absolutely not cause any
problems like you described above.

Long story short when this affects your user experience then your user
space is exporting *much* more buffers than expected. Especially since
the sysfs overhead is completely negligible compared to the overhead
drivers have when they export buffers.


I do not think we can solve this issue from userspace since the
problem is not due to the overhead of sysfs creation/teardown itself.

Yes, thanks. That's the important information I was looking for.

The problem is that the duration of time for which the exporting
process would need to sleep waiting for the kernfs_rwsem semaphore is
undefined when the holder of the semaphore goes under direct reclaim.
Fsnotify events for sysfs files are also generated while holding the
same semaphore.

This is also not a problem due to the high number of DMA-BUF
exports during launch time, as even a single export can be delayed for
an unpredictable amount of time. We cannot eliminate DMA-BUF exports
completely during app-launches and we are unfortunately seeing reports
of the exporting process occasionally sleeping long enough to cause
user-visible jankiness :(

We also looked at whether any optimizations are possible from the
kernfs implementation side[1] but the semaphore is used quite extensively
and it looks like the best way forward would be to remove sysfs
creation/teardown from the DMA-BUF export/release path altogether. We
have some ideas on how we can reduce the code-complexity in the
current patch. If we manage to
simplify it considerably, would the approach of offloading sysfs
creation and teardown into a separate thread be acceptable Christian?

At bare minimum I suggest to use a work_struct instead of re-inventing that with kthread.

And then only put the exporting of buffers into the background and not the teardown.

Thank you for the guidance!
One worry I have here with doing this async that now userspace might
have a dma-buf, but the sysfs entry does not yet exist, or the dma-buf
is gone, but the sysfs entry still exists. That's a bit awkward wrt
semantics.

Also I'm pretty sure that if we can hit this, then other subsystems
using kernfs have similar problems, so trying to fix this in kernfs
with slightly more fine-grained locking sounds like a much more solid
approach. The linked patch talks about how the big delays happen due
to direct reclaim, and that might be limited to specific code paths
that we need to look at? As-is this feels a bit much like papering
over kernfs issues in hackish ways in sysfs users, instead of tackling
the problem at its root.

Which is exactly my feeling as well, yes.

Christian.

I think in that light adding sysfs was rather questionable to begin
with, but that change here is a complete no-go if you ask me. You are
adding complexity to the kernel for something which should probably be
optimized in userspace.

Regards,
Christian.

Thanks in advance for the guidance!

Hridya

If we would want to go down this route you would need to change all the
drivers implementing the DMA-buf export functionality to avoid
uninterruptible sleep as well and that is certainly something I would NAK.

Christian.
