Hello, The 1st 3 patches are cleanup, and prepare for adding sqe group. The 4th patch supports generic sqe group which is like link chain, but allows each sqe in group to be issued in parallel and the group shares same IO_LINK & IO_DRAIN boundary, so N:M dependency can be supported with sqe group & io link together. sqe group changes nothing on IOSQE_IO_LINK. The 5th patch supports one variant of sqe group: allow members to depend on group leader, so that kernel resource lifetime can be aligned with group leader or group, then any kernel resource can be shared in this sqe group, and can be used in generic device zero copy. The 6th & 7th patches supports providing sqe group buffer via the sqe group variant. The 8th patch supports ublk zero copy based on io_uring providing sqe group buffer. Tests: 1) pass liburing test - make runtests 2) write/pass two sqe group test cases: https://github.com/axboe/liburing/compare/master...ming1:liburing:sqe_group_v2 - covers related sqe flags combination and linking groups, both nop and one multi-destination file copy. - cover failure handling test: fail leader IO or member IO in both single group and linked groups, which is done in each sqe flags combination test 3) ublksrv zero copy: ublksrv userspace implements zero copy by sqe group & provide group kbuf: git clone https://github.com/ublk-org/ublksrv.git -b group-provide-buf_v2 make test T=loop/009:nbd/061 #ublk zc tests When running 64KB/512KB block size test on ublk-loop('ublk add -t loop --buffered_io -f $backing'), it is observed that perf is doubled. Any comments are welcome! V4: - address most comments from Pavel - fix request double free - don't use io_req_commit_cqe() in io_req_complete_defer() - make members' REQ_F_INFLIGHT discoverable - use common assembling check in submission code path - drop patch 3 and don't move REQ_F_CQE_SKIP out of io_free_req() - don't set .accept_group_kbuf for net send zc, in which members need to be queued after buffer notification is got, and can be enabled in future - add .grp_leader field via union, and share storage with .grp_link - move .grp_refs into one hole of io_kiocb, so that one extra cacheline isn't needed for io_kiocb - cleanup & document improvement V3: - add IORING_FEAT_SQE_GROUP - simplify group completion, and minimize change on io_req_complete_defer() - simplify & cleanup io_queue_group_members() - fix many failure handling issues - cover failure handling code in added liburing tests - remove RFC V2: - add generic sqe group, suggested by Kevin Wolf - add REQ_F_SQE_GROUP_DEP which is based on IOSQE_SQE_GROUP, for sharing kernel resource in group wide, suggested by Kevin Wolf - remove sqe ext flag, and use the last bit for IOSQE_SQE_GROUP(Pavel), in future we still can extend sqe flags with one uring context flag - initialize group requests via submit state pattern, suggested by Pavel - all kinds of cleanup & bug fixes Ming Lei (8): io_uring: add io_link_req() helper io_uring: add io_submit_fail_link() helper io_uring: add helper of io_req_commit_cqe() io_uring: support SQE group io_uring: support sqe group with members depending on leader io_uring: support providing sqe group buffer io_uring/uring_cmd: support provide group kernel buffer ublk: support provide io buffer drivers/block/ublk_drv.c | 158 ++++++++++++- include/linux/io_uring/cmd.h | 7 + include/linux/io_uring_types.h | 54 +++++ include/uapi/linux/io_uring.h | 11 +- include/uapi/linux/ublk_cmd.h | 7 +- io_uring/io_uring.c | 392 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- io_uring/io_uring.h | 24 ++ io_uring/kbuf.c | 60 +++++ io_uring/kbuf.h | 13 ++ io_uring/net.c | 23 +- io_uring/opdef.c | 4 + io_uring/opdef.h | 2 + io_uring/rw.c | 20 +- io_uring/timeout.c | 2 + io_uring/uring_cmd.c | 28 +++ 15 files changed, 752 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-) -- 2.42.0
