Re: [PATCH for-6.1 1/2] io_uring/net: fail zc send for unsupported protocols

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

 



Hi Pavel,

If a protocol doesn't support zerocopy it will silently fall back to
copying. This type of behaviour has always been a source of troubles
so it's better to fail such requests instead. For now explicitly
whitelist supported protocols in io_uring, which should be turned later
into a socket flag.

Can we please make this more generic (at least for 6.1, which is likely be an lts release)

It means my out of tree smbdirect driver would not be able to provide SENDMSG_ZC.

Currently sk_setsockopt has this logic:

        case SO_ZEROCOPY:
                if (sk->sk_family == PF_INET || sk->sk_family == PF_INET6) {
                        if (!(sk_is_tcp(sk) ||
                              (sk->sk_type == SOCK_DGRAM &&
                               sk->sk_protocol == IPPROTO_UDP)))
                                ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;
                } else if (sk->sk_family != PF_RDS) {
                        ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;
                }
                if (!ret) {
                        if (val < 0 || val > 1)
                                ret = -EINVAL;
                        else
                                sock_valbool_flag(sk, SOCK_ZEROCOPY, valbool);
                }
                break;

Maybe the socket creation code could set
unsigned char skc_so_zerocopy_supported:1;
and/or
unsigned char skc_zerocopy_msg_ubuf_supported:1;

In order to avoid the manual complex tests.

What do you think?
