Merge branch 'process-connector-bug-fixes-and-enhancements'
Anjali Kulkarni says:
==================== Process connector bug fixes & enhancements
Oracle DB is trying to solve a performance overhead problem it has been facing for the past 10 years and using this patch series, we can fix this issue.
Oracle DB runs on a large scale with 100000s of short lived processes, starting up and exiting quickly. A process monitoring DB daemon which tracks and cleans up after processes that have died without a proper exit needs notifications only when a process died with a non-zero exit code (which should be rare).
Due to the pmon architecture, which is distributed, each process is independent and has minimal interaction with pmon. Hence fd based solutions to track a process's spawning and exit cannot be used. Pmon needs to detect the abnormal death of a process so it can cleanup after. Currently it resorts to checking /proc every few seconds. Other methods we tried like using system call to reduce the above overhead were not accepted upstream.
With this change, we add event based filtering to proc connector module so that DB can only listen to the events it is interested in. A new event type PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT is added, which is only sent by kernel to a listening application when any process exiting has a non-zero exit status.
This change will give Oracle DB substantial performance savings - it takes 50ms to scan about 8K PIDs in /proc, about 500ms for 100K PIDs. DB does this check every 3 secs, so over an hour we save 10secs for 100K PIDs.
With this, a client can register to listen for only exit or fork or a mix or all of the events. This greatly enhances performance - currently, we need to listen to all events, and there are 9 different types of events. For eg. handling 3 types of events - 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes 200ms, whereas handling 2 types - 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms, and handling just one type - 8K exits takes about 70ms.
Measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took 4 times longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications of proc connector. Hence, we cannot use pidfd for our use case.
This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification.
This patch series is organized as follows -
Patch 1 : Needed for patch 3 to work. Patch 2 : Needed for patch 3 to work. Patch 3 : Fixes some bugs in proc connector, details in the patch. Patch 4 : Adds event based filtering for performance enhancements. Patch 5 : Allow non-root users access to proc connector events. Patch 6 : Selftest code for proc connector.

v7->v8 changes: - Fixed an issue pointed by Liam Howlett in v7.
v6->v7 changes: - Incorporated Liam Howlett's comments on v6 - Incorporated Kalesh Anakkur Purayil's comments
v5->v6 changes: - Incorporated Liam Howlett's comments - Removed FILTER define from proc_filter.c and added a "-f" run-time option to run new filter code. - Made proc_filter.c a selftest in tools/testing/selftests/connector
v4->v5 changes: - Change the cover letter - Fix a small issue in proc_filter.c
v3->v4 changes: - Fix comments by Jakub Kicinski to incorporate root access changes within bind call of connector
v2->v3 changes: - Fix comments by Jakub Kicinski to separate netlink (patch 2) (after layering) from connector fixes (patch 3). - Minor fixes suggested by Jakub. - Add new multicast group level permissions check at netlink layer. Split this into netlink & connector layers (patches 6 & 7)
v1->v2 changes: - Fix comments by Jakub Kicinski to keep layering within netlink and update kdocs. - Move non-root users access patch last in series so remaining patches can go in first.
v->v1 changes: - Changed commit log in patch 4 as suggested by Christian Brauner - Changed patch 4 to make more fine grained access to non-root users - Fixed warning in cn_proc.c, Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> - Fixed some existing warnings in cn_proc.c ====================
