[PATCH v4 00/11] Read/Write with meta/integrity

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

 



This adds a new io_uring interface to exchange meta along with read/write.

Interface:
Meta information is represented using a newly introduced 'struct io_uring_meta'.
Application sets up a SQE128 ring, and prepares io_uring_meta within second
SQE. Application populates 'struct io_uring_meta' fields as below:

* meta_type: describes type of meta that is passed. Currently one type
"Integrity" is supported.
* meta_flags: these are meta-type specific flags. Three flags are exposed for
integrity type, namely BLK_INTEGRITY_CHK_GUARD/APPTAG/REFTAG.
* meta_len: length of the meta buffer
* meta_addr: address of the meta buffer
* seed: seed value for ref tag remapping
* app_tag: optional application-specific 16b value; this goes along with
INTEGRITY_CHK_APPTAG flag.

Block path (direct IO) , NVMe and SCSI driver are modified to support
this.

Patch 1 is an enhancement patch.
Patch 2 is required to make the user metadata split work correctly.
Patch 3 to 6 are prep patches.
Patch 7 adds the io_uring support.
Patch 8 gives us unified interface for user and kernel generated
integrity.
Patch 9 adds the support for block direct IO, patch 10 for NVMe, and
patch 11 for SCSI.

In patch 11 for scsi, we added a check to prevent scenarios where refcheck
is specified without appcheck and vice-versa, as it is not possible in
scsi. However block layer generated integrity doesn't specify appcheck.
For drives formatted with type1/type2 PI, block layer would specify refcheck
but not appcheck. Hence, these I/O's would fail. Any suggestions how this
could be handled?

Some of the design choices came from this discussion [1].

Example program on how to use the interface is appended below [2]
(It also tests whether reftag remapping happens correctly or not)
