# 05e6295f 20-Feb-2023 Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Merge tag 'fs.idmapped.v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping

Pull vfs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:

- Last cycle we introduced the dedicated struct mnt_i

Merge tag 'fs.idmapped.v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping

Pull vfs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:

- Last cycle we introduced the dedicated struct mnt_idmap type for
mount idmapping and the required infrastucture in 256c8aed2b42 ("fs:
introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). As promised in last
cycle's pull request message this converts everything to rely on
struct mnt_idmap.

Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached
to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy
to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with
namespaces that are relevant on the mount level. Especially for
non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this was a
potential source for bugs.

This finishes the conversion. Instead of passing the plain namespace
around this updates all places that currently take a pointer to a
mnt_userns with a pointer to struct mnt_idmap.

Now that the conversion is done all helpers down to the really
low-level helpers only accept a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments.

Conflating mount and other idmappings will now cause the compiler to
complain loudly thus eliminating the possibility of any bugs. This
makes it impossible for filesystem developers to mix up mount and
filesystem idmappings as they are two distinct types and require
distinct helpers that cannot be used interchangeably.

Everything associated with struct mnt_idmap is moved into a single
separate file. With that change no code can poke around in struct
mnt_idmap. It can only be interacted with through dedicated helpers.
That means all filesystems are and all of the vfs is completely
oblivious to the actual implementation of idmappings.

We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap as we see fit. For
example, we can decouple it completely from namespaces for users that
don't require or don't want to use them at all. We can also extend
the concept of idmappings so we can cover filesystem specific
requirements.

In combination with the vfs{g,u}id_t work we finished in v6.2 this
makes this feature substantially more robust and thus difficult to
implement wrong by a given filesystem and also protects the vfs.

- Enable idmapped mounts for tmpfs and fulfill a longstanding request.

A long-standing request from users had been to make it possible to
create idmapped mounts for tmpfs. For example, to share the host's
tmpfs mount between multiple sandboxes. This is a prerequisite for
some advanced Kubernetes cases. Systemd also has a range of use-cases
to increase service isolation. And there are more users of this.

However, with all of the other work going on this was way down on the
priority list but luckily someone other than ourselves picked this
up.

As usual the patch is tiny as all the infrastructure work had been
done multiple kernel releases ago. In addition to all the tests that
we already have I requested that Rodrigo add a dedicated tmpfs
testsuite for idmapped mounts to xfstests. It is to be included into
xfstests during the v6.3 development cycle. This should add a slew of
additional tests.

sched: Introduce per-memory-map concurrency ID

This feature allows the scheduler to expose a per-memory map concurrency
ID to user-space. This concurrency ID is within the possible cpus range,
and is temporarily (and uniquely) assigned while threads are actively
running within a memory map. If a memory map has fewer threads than
cores, or is limited to run on few cores concurrently through sched
affinity or cgroup cpusets, the concurrency IDs will be values close
to 0, thus allowing efficient use of user-space memory for per-cpu
data structures.

This feature is meant to be exposed by a new rseq thread area field.

The primary purpose of this feature is to do the heavy-lifting needed
by memory allocators to allow them to use per-cpu data structures
efficiently in the following situations:

- Single-threaded applications,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with limited
cpu affinity mask,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with
restricted cgroup cpuset per container.

One of the key concern from scheduler maintainers is the overhead
associated with additional spin locks or atomic operations in the
scheduler fast-path. This is why the following optimization is
implemented.

On context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map,
transfer the mm_cid from prev to next without any atomic ops. This
takes care of use-cases involving frequent context switch between
threads belonging to the same memory map.

Additional optimizations can be done if the spin locks added when
context switching between threads belonging to different memory maps end
up being a performance bottleneck. Those are left out of this patch
though. A performance impact would have to be clearly demonstrated to
justify the added complexity.

The credit goes to Paul Turner (Google) for the original virtual cpu id
idea. This feature is implemented based on the discussions with Paul
Turner and Peter Oskolkov (Google), but I took the liberty to implement
scheduler fast-path optimizations and my own NUMA-awareness scheme. The
rumor has it that Google have been running a rseq vcpu_id extension
internally in production for a year. The tcmalloc source code indeed has
comments hinting at a vcpu_id prototype extension to the rseq system
call [1].

The following benchmarks do not show any significant overhead added to
the scheduler context switch by this feature:

* perf bench sched messaging (process)

Baseline: 86.5±0.3 ms
With mm_cid: 86.7±2.6 ms

* perf bench sched messaging (threaded)

Baseline: 84.3±3.0 ms
With mm_cid: 84.7±2.6 ms

* hackbench (process)

Baseline: 82.9±2.7 ms
With mm_cid: 82.9±2.9 ms

* hackbench (threaded)

Baseline: 85.2±2.6 ms
With mm_cid: 84.4±2.9 ms
