H A Daio-posix.hdiff fc8796465c6cd4091efe6a2f8b353f07324f49c7 Wed Feb 23 09:57:03 CST 2022 Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> aio-posix: fix spurious ->poll_ready() callbacks in main loop

When ->poll() succeeds the AioHandler is placed on the ready list with
revents set to the magic value 0. This magic value causes
aio_dispatch_handler() to invoke ->poll_ready() instead of ->io_read()
for G_IO_IN or ->io_write() for G_IO_OUT.

This magic value 0 hack works for the IOThread where AioHandlers are
placed on ->ready_list and processed by aio_dispatch_ready_handlers().
It does not work for the main loop where all AioHandlers are processed
by aio_dispatch_handlers(), even those that are not ready and have a
revents value of 0.

As a result the main loop invokes ->poll_ready() on AioHandlers that are
not ready. These spurious ->poll_ready() calls waste CPU cycles and
could lead to crashes if the code assumes ->poll() must have succeeded
before ->poll_ready() is called (a reasonable asumption but I haven't
seen it in practice).

Stop using revents to track whether ->poll_ready() will be called on an
AioHandler. Introduce a separate AioHandler->poll_ready field instead.
This eliminates spurious ->poll_ready() calls in the main loop.

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.

For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.

By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.

The following data was collected with virtio-blk num-queues=2
event_idx=off using an IOThread. Before:

168k IOPS, IOThread syscalls:

Notice that ppoll(2) and eventfd read(2) syscalls are eliminated because
the IOThread stays in polling mode instead of falling back to file

for G_IO_IN or ->io_write() for G_IO_OUT.

This magic value 0 hack works for the IOThread where AioHandlers are

It does not work for the main loop where all AioHandlers are processed

As a result the main loop invokes ->poll_ready() on AioHandlers that are
not ready. These spurious ->poll_ready() calls waste CPU cycles and
could lead to crashes if the code assumes ->poll() must have succeeded
before ->poll_ready() is called (a reasonable asumption but I haven't
seen it in practice).

Stop using revents to track whether ->poll_ready() will be called on an
AioHandler. Introduce a separate AioHandler->poll_ready field instead.
This eliminates spurious ->poll_ready() calls in the main loop.

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.

For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.

By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.

The following data was collected with virtio-blk num-queues=2
event_idx=off using an IOThread. Before:

168k IOPS, IOThread syscalls:

9837.115 ( 0.020 ms): IO iothread1/620155 io_submit(ctx_id: 140512552468480, nr: 16, iocbpp: 0x7fcb9f937db0) = 16

174k IOPS (+3.6%), IOThread syscalls:

9809.566 ( 0.036 ms): IO iothread1/623061 io_submit(ctx_id: 140539805028352, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fd0cdd62be0) = 32

Notice that ppoll(2) and eventfd read(2) syscalls are eliminated because
the IOThread stays in polling mode instead of falling back to file
descriptor monitoring.

As usual, polling is not implemented on Windows so this patch ignores
the new io_poll_read() callback in aio-win32.c.

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.

For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.

By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.

The following data was collected with virtio-blk num-queues=2
event_idx=off using an IOThread. Before:

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.

For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.

By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.

For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.

By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.

The following data was collected with virtio-blk num-queues=2
event_idx=off using an IOThread. Before:

168k IOPS, IOThread syscalls:

9837.115 ( 0.020 ms): IO iothread1/620155 io_submit(ctx_id: 140512552468480, nr: 16, iocbpp: 0x7fcb9f937db0) = 16

9837.164 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 107, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8
9837.174 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 105, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8
9837.176 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 106, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8
9837.209 ( 0.035 ms): IO iothread1/620155 io_submit(ctx_id: 140512552468480, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fca7d0cebe0) = 32

174k IOPS (+3.6%), IOThread syscalls:

9809.566 ( 0.036 ms): IO iothread1/623061 io_submit(ctx_id: 140539805028352, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fd0cdd62be0) = 32
9809.625 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/623061 write(fd: 103, buf: 0x5647cfba5f58, count: 8) = 8
9809.627 ( 0.002 ms): IO iothread1/623061 write(fd: 104, buf: 0x5647cfba5f58, count: 8) = 8
9809.663 ( 0.036 ms): IO iothread1/623061 io_submit(ctx_id: 140539805028352, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fd0d0388b50) = 32

Notice that ppoll(2) and eventfd read(2) syscalls are eliminated because
the IOThread stays in polling mode instead of falling back to file
descriptor monitoring.

As usual, polling is not implemented on Windows so this patch ignores
the new io_poll_read() callback in aio-win32.c.
