Here is an implementation of a new system call, sys_membarrier(), which
executes a memory barrier on all threads running on the system. It is
implemented by calling synchronize_sched(). It can be used to
distribute the cost of user-space memory barriers asymmetrically by
transforming pairs of memory barriers into pairs consisting of
sys_membarrier() and a compiler barrier. For synchronization primitives
that distinguish between read-side and write-side (e.g. userspace RCU
[1], rwlocks), the read-side can be accelerated significantly by moving
the bulk of the memory barrier overhead to the write-side.
The existing applications of which I am aware that would be improved by
this system call are as follows:
* Through Userspace RCU library (http://urcu.so)
- DNS server (Knot DNS) https://www.knot-dns.cz/
- Network sniffer (http://netsniff-ng.org/)
- Distributed object storage (https://sheepdog.github.io/sheepdog/)
- User-space tracing (http://lttng.org)
- Network storage system (https://www.gluster.org/)
- Virtual routers (https://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/DPDK_RCU_0MQ.pdf)
- Financial software (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/23/189)
Those projects use RCU in userspace to increase read-side speed and
scalability compared to locking. Especially in the case of RCU used by
libraries, sys_membarrier can speed up the read-side by moving the bulk of
the memory barrier cost to synchronize_rcu().
* Direct users of sys_membarrier
- core dotnet garbage collector (https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/198)
Microsoft core dotnet GC developers are planning to use the mprotect()
side-effect of issuing memory barriers through IPIs as a way to implement
Windows FlushProcessWriteBuffers() on Linux. They are referring to
sys_membarrier in their github thread, specifically stating that
sys_membarrier() is what they are looking for.
To explain the benefit of this scheme, let's introduce two example threads:
Thread A (non-frequent, e.g. executing liburcu synchronize_rcu())
Thread B (frequent, e.g. executing liburcu
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock())
In a scheme where all smp_mb() in thread A are ordering memory accesses
with respect to smp_mb() present in Thread B, we can change each
smp_mb() within Thread A into calls to sys_membarrier() and each
smp_mb() within Thread B into compiler barriers "barrier()".
Before the change, we had, for each smp_mb() pairs:
Thread A Thread B
previous mem accesses previous mem accesses
smp_mb() smp_mb()
following mem accesses following mem accesses
After the change, these pairs become:
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier() barrier()
follow mem accesses follow mem accesses
As we can see, there are two possible scenarios: either Thread B memory
accesses do not happen concurrently with Thread A accesses (1), or they
do (2).
1) Non-concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses:
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier()
follow mem accesses
prev mem accesses
barrier()
follow mem accesses
In this case, thread B accesses will be weakly ordered. This is OK,
because at that point, thread A is not particularly interested in
ordering them with respect to its own accesses.
2) Concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier() barrier()
follow mem accesses follow mem accesses
In this case, thread B accesses, which are ensured to be in program
order thanks to the compiler barrier, will be "upgraded" to full
smp_mb() by synchronize_sched().
* Benchmarks
On Intel Xeon E5405 (8 cores)
(one thread is calling sys_membarrier, the other 7 threads are busy
looping)
1000 non-expedited sys_membarrier calls in 33s =3D 33 milliseconds/call.
* User-space user of this system call: Userspace RCU library
Both the signal-based and the sys_membarrier userspace RCU schemes
permit us to remove the memory barrier from the userspace RCU
rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() primitives, thus significantly
accelerating them. These memory barriers are replaced by compiler
barriers on the read-side, and all matching memory barriers on the
write-side are turned into an invocation of a memory barrier on all
active threads in the process. By letting the kernel perform this
synchronization rather than dumbly sending a signal to every process
threads (as we currently do), we diminish the number of unnecessary wake
ups and only issue the memory barriers on active threads. Non-running
threads do not need to execute such barrier anyway, because these are
implied by the scheduler context switches.
Results in liburcu:
Operations in 10s, 6 readers, 2 writers:
memory barriers in reader: 1701557485 reads, 2202847 writes
signal-based scheme: 9830061167 reads, 6700 writes
sys_membarrier: 9952759104 reads, 425 writes
sys_membarrier (dyn. check): 7970328887 reads, 425 writes
The dynamic sys_membarrier availability check adds some overhead to
the read-side compared to the signal-based scheme, but besides that,
sys_membarrier slightly outperforms the signal-based scheme. However,
this non-expedited sys_membarrier implementation has a much slower grace
period than signal and memory barrier schemes.
Besides diminishing the number of wake-ups, one major advantage of the
membarrier system call over the signal-based scheme is that it does not
need to reserve a signal. This plays much more nicely with libraries,
and with processes injected into for tracing purposes, for which we
cannot expect that signals will be unused by the application.
An expedited version of this system call can be added later on to speed
up the grace period. Its implementation will likely depend on reading
the cpu_curr()->mm without holding each CPU's rq lock.
This patch adds the system call to x86 and to asm-generic.

MEMBARRIER(2) Linux Programmer's Manual MEMBARRIER(2)
NAME
membarrier - issue memory barriers on a set of threads
SYNOPSIS
#include <linux/membarrier.h>
int membarrier(int cmd, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The cmd argument is one of the following:
MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY
Query the set of supported commands. It returns a bitmask of
supported commands.
MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED
Execute a memory barrier on all threads running on the system.
Upon return from system call, the caller thread is ensured that
all running threads have passed through a state where all memory
accesses to user-space addresses match program order between
entry to and return from the system call (non-running threads
are de facto in such a state). This covers threads from all pro=E2=80=90
cesses running on the system. This command returns 0.
The flags argument needs to be 0. For future extensions.
All memory accesses performed in program order from each targeted
thread is guaranteed to be ordered with respect to sys_membarrier(). If
we use the semantic "barrier()" to represent a compiler barrier forcing
memory accesses to be performed in program order across the barrier,
and smp_mb() to represent explicit memory barriers forcing full memory
ordering across the barrier, we have the following ordering table for
each pair of barrier(), sys_membarrier() and smp_mb():
The pair ordering is detailed as (O: ordered, X: not ordered):
barrier() smp_mb() sys_membarrier()
barrier() X X O
smp_mb() X O O
sys_membarrier() O O O
RETURN VALUE
On success, these system calls return zero. On error, -1 is returned,
and errno is set appropriately. For a given command, with flags
argument set to 0, this system call is guaranteed to always return the
same value until reboot.
ERRORS
ENOSYS System call is not implemented.
EINVAL Invalid arguments.

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is a fairly sizeable set of changes. I've put them through a
decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
that.
There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
than waiting for those last few fixups.
Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack. We
deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
back if we can deprecate another one (ehca). We also put Intel's new
hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
that library.
I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
deletions of deprecated drivers are done.
Summary of changes for 4.3:
- Create drivers/staging/rdma
- Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
tree
- Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
- Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code

"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical

the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().

module signing. See comments in 3f1e1bea.
** NOTE: this requires linking against the OpenSSL library, which
must be installed, e.g. the openssl-devel on Fedora **
- Smack
- add IPv6 host labeling; ignore labels on kernel threads
- support smack labeling mounts which use binary mount data
- SELinux:
- add ioctl whitelisting (see
http://kernsec.org/files/lss2015/vanderstoep.pdf)
- fix mprotect PROT_EXEC regression caused by mm change
- Seccomp:
- add ptrace options for suspend/resume"
* 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security: (57 commits)
PKCS#7: Add OIDs for sha224, sha284 and sha512 hash algos and use them
Documentation/Changes: Now need OpenSSL devel packages for module signing
scripts: add extract-cert and sign-file to .gitignore
modsign: Handle signing key in source tree
modsign: Use if_changed rule for extracting cert from module signing key
Move certificate handling to its own directory
sign-file: Fix warning about BIO_reset() return value
PKCS#7: Add MODULE_LICENSE() to test module
Smack - Fix build error with bringup unconfigured
sign-file: Document dependency on OpenSSL devel libraries
PKCS#7: Appropriately restrict authenticated attributes and content type
KEYS: Add a name for PKEY_ID_PKCS7
PKCS#7: Improve and export the X.509 ASN.1 time object decoder
modsign: Use extract-cert to process CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS

[ The Kconfig and Makefile entries got re-sorted alphabetically, and I
handled the conflict with the new Intel integrated IDMA driver by
slightly mis-sorting it on purpose: "IDMA64" got sorted after "IMX" in
order to keep the Intel entries together. I think it might be a good
idea to just rename the IDMA64 config entry to INTEL_IDMA64 to make
the sorting be a true sort, not this mismash.
Also, this merge disables the COMPILE_TEST for the sun4i DMA
controller, because it does not compile cleanly at all. - Linus ]

Core changes:
- It is possible configure groups in debugfs.
- Consolidation of chained IRQ handler install/remove replacing
all call sites where irq_set_handler_data() and
irq_set_chained_handler() were done in succession with a
combined call to irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(). This
series was created by Thomas Gleixner after the problem was
observed by Russell King.
- Tglx also made another series of patches switching
__irq_set_handler_locked() for irq_set_handler_locked() which
is way cleaner.
- Tglx also wrote a good bunch of patches to make use of
irq_desc_get_xxx() accessors and avoid looking up irq_descs
from IRQ numbers. The goal is to get rid of the irq number
from the handlers in the IRQ flow which is nice.
Driver feature enhancements:
- Power management support for the SiRF SoC Atlas 7.
- Power down support for the Qualcomm driver.
- Intel Cherryview and Baytrail: switch drivers to use raw
spinlocks in IRQ handlers to play nice with the realtime
patch set.
- Rework and new modes handling for Qualcomm SPMI-MPP.
- Pinconf power source config for SH PFC.
New drivers and subdrivers:
- A new driver for Conexant Digicolor CX92755.
- A new driver for UniPhier PH1-LD4, PH1-Pro4, PH1-sLD8,
PH1-Pro5, ProXtream2 and PH1-LD6b SoC pin control support.
- Reverse-egineered the S/PDIF settings for the Allwinner
sun4i driver.
- Support for Qualcomm Technologies QDF2xxx ARM64 SoCs
- A new Freescale i.mx6ul subdriver.
Cleanup:
- Remove platform data support in a number of SH PFC

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"The major work includes fixing and enhancing the existing extent_cache
feature, which has been well settling down so far and now it becomes a
default mount option accordingly.
Also, this version newly registers a f2fs memory shrinker to reclaim
several objects consumed by a couple of data structures in order to
avoid memory pressures.
Another new feature is to add ioctl(F2FS_GARBAGE_COLLECT) which
triggers a cleaning job explicitly by users.
Most of the other patches are to fix bugs occurred in the corner cases
across the whole code area"

Pull ext3 removal, quota & udf fixes from Jan Kara:
"The biggest change in the pull is the removal of ext3 filesystem
driver (~28k lines removed). Ext4 driver is a full featured
replacement these days and both RH and SUSE use it for several years
without issues. Also there are some workarounds in VM & block layer
mainly for ext3 which we could eventually get rid of.
Other larger change is addition of proper error handling for
dquot_initialize(). The rest is small fixes and cleanups"
[ I wasn't convinced about the ext3 removal and worried about things
falling through the cracks for legacy users, but ext4 maintainers
piped up and were all unanimously in favor of removal, and maintaining
all legacy ext3 support inside ext4. - Linus ]
* 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs:
udf: Don't modify filesystem for read-only mounts

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Another merge window, another set of networking changes. I've heard
rumblings that the lightweight tunnels infrastructure has been voted
networking change of the year. But what do I know?
1) Add conntrack support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer.
2) Initial support for VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding), which
allows the segmentation of routing paths without using multiple
devices. There are some semantic kinks to work out still, but
this is a reasonably strong foundation. From David Ahern.
3) Remove spinlock fro act_bpf fast path, from Alexei Starovoitov.
4) Ignore route nexthops with a link down state in ipv6, just like
ipv4. From Andy Gospodarek.
5) Remove spinlock from fast path of act_gact and act_mirred, from
Eric Dumazet.
6) Document the DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli.
7) Add netconsole support to bcmgenet, systemport, and DSA. Also
from Florian Fainelli.
8) Add Mellanox Switch Driver and core infrastructure, from Jiri
Pirko.
9) Add support for "light weight tunnels", which allow for
encapsulation and decapsulation without bearing the overhead of a
full blown netdevice. From Thomas Graf, Jiri Benc, and a cast of
others.
10) Add Identifier Locator Addressing support for ipv6, from Tom
Herbert.
11) Support fragmented SKBs in iwlwifi, from Johannes Berg.
12) Allow perf PMUs to be accessed from eBPF programs, from Kaixu Xia.
13) Add BQL support to 3c59x driver, from Loganaden Velvindron.
14) Stop using a zero TX queue length to mean that a device shouldn't
have a qdisc attached, use an explicit flag instead. From Phil
Sutter.
15) Use generic geneve netdevice infrastructure in openvswitch, from
Pravin B Shelar.
16) Add infrastructure to avoid re-forwarding a packet in software
that was already forwarded by a hardware switch. From Scott
Feldman.
17) Allow AF_PACKET fanout function to be implemented in a bpf
program, from Willem de Bruijn"
