Joern Engel b79fafac70 target: make queue_tm_rsp() return void
The return value wasn't checked by any of the callers.  Assuming this is
correct behaviour, we can simplify some code by not bothering to
generate it.

nab: Add srpt_queue_data_in() + srpt_queue_tm_rsp() nops around
     srpt_queue_response() void return

Asias He 6ac1afbf61 vhost: Make vhost a separate module
Currently, vhost-net and vhost-scsi are sharing the vhost core code.
However, vhost-scsi shares the code by including the vhost.c file
directly.

Making vhost a separate module makes it is easier to share code with
other vhost devices.

Michael S. Tsirkin c38e39c378 vhost-net: fix use-after-free in vhost_net_flush
vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait has a confusing name:
it will actually also free it's argument.
Thus since commit 1280c27f8e
    "vhost-net: flush outstanding DMAs on memory change"
vhost_net_flush tries to use the argument after passing it
to vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait, this results
in use after free.
To fix, don't free the argument in vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait,
add an new API for callers that want to free ubufs.

Nicholas Bellinger 084ed45b38 vhost/scsi: Convert to se_cmd->cmd_kref TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF usage
This patch coverts vhost/scsi to se_cmd->cmd_kref TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF
usage, instead of assuming that vhost_scsi_free_cmd() is always called
before TCM processing is completed in the response fast path.

This includes adding vhost_scsi_check_stop_free() -> target_put_sess_cmd()
to perform the second se_cmd->cmd_kref put, and moving vhost_scsi_free_cmd()
resource release into tcm_vhost_release_cmd() that is invoked once the last
se_cmd->cmd_kref put occurs.

Nicholas Bellinger 6c131d0c58 vhost/scsi: Drop unnecessary wait_for_tasks=true usage with transport_generic_free_cmd
This patch changes vhost_scsi_free_cmd() to call transport_generic_free_cmd()
with wait_for_tasks=false in order to avoid the extra se_cmd->t_state_lock
access for the wait_for_tasks=true case.

This is unnecessary because vhost_scsi_free_cmd() is only ever called by
vhost_scsi_complete_cmd_work() after TCM completion handoff, and by
vhost_scsi_handle_vq() exception code before TCM submission handoff, so
there is never a case where se_cmd is still active from TCM's perspective
when transport_generic_free_cmd() is called.

Asias He f2f0173d6a tcm_vhost: Wait for pending requests in vhost_scsi_flush()
Unlike tcm_vhost_evt requests, tcm_vhost_cmd requests are passed to the
target core system, we can not make sure all the pending requests will
be finished by flushing the virt queue.

In this patch, we do refcount for every tcm_vhost_cmd requests to make
vhost_scsi_flush() wait for all the pending requests issued before the
flush operation to be finished.

This is useful when we call vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint() to stop
tcm_vhost. No new requests will be passed to target core system because
we clear the endpoint by setting vs_tpg to NULL. And we wait for all the
old requests. These guarantee no requests will be leaked and existing
requests will be completed.

Asias He a6c9af8736 tcm_vhost: Add hotplug/hotunplug support
In commit 365a715009 ([SCSI] virtio-scsi: hotplug support for
virtio-scsi), hotplug support is added to virtio-scsi.

This patch adds hotplug and hotunplug support to tcm_vhost.

You can create or delete a LUN in targetcli to hotplug or hotunplug a
LUN in guest.

The e{uid,gid} --> {uid,gid} credentials fix conflicted with the
cleanup in net-next to now pass cred structs around.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
code.

Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
argument.

Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO
rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

Thanks to Stephen Rothwell and Antonio Quartulli for help with several
of these merge resolutions.

Jason Wang 70181d5120 vhost_net: remove tx polling state
After commit 2b8b328b61 (vhost_net: handle polling
errors when setting backend), we in fact track the polling state through
poll->wqh, so there's no need to duplicate the work with an extra
vhost_net_polling_state. So this patch removes this and make the code simpler.

This patch also removes the all tx starting/stopping code in tx path according
to Michael's suggestion.

Netperf test shows almost the same result in stream test, but gets improvements
on TCP_RR tests (both zerocopy or copy) especially on low load cases.

Tested between multiqueue kvm guest and external host with two direct
connected 82599s.

Asias He dfd5d5692c tcm_vhost: Initialize vq->last_used_idx when set endpoint
This patch fixes guest hang when booting seabios and guest.

  [    0.576238] scsi0 : Virtio SCSI HBA
  [    0.616754] virtio_scsi virtio1: request:id 0 is not a head!

vq->last_used_idx is initialized only when /dev/vhost-scsi is
opened or closed.

   vhost_scsi_open -> vhost_dev_init() -> vhost_vq_reset()
   vhost_scsi_release() -> vhost_dev_cleanup -> vhost_vq_reset()

So, when guest talks to tcm_vhost after seabios does, vq->last_used_idx
still contains the old valule for seabios. This confuses guest.

Fix this by calling vhost_init_used() to init vq->last_used_idx when
we set endpoint.

Asias He 4f7f46d32c tcm_vhost: Use vq->private_data to indicate if the endpoint is setup
Currently, vs->vs_endpoint is used indicate if the endpoint is setup or
not. It is set or cleared in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint() or
vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint() under the vs->dev.mutex lock. However, when
we check it in vhost_scsi_handle_vq(), we ignored the lock.

Instead of using the vs->vs_endpoint and the vs->dev.mutex lock to
indicate the status of the endpoint, we use per virtqueue
vq->private_data to indicate it. In this way, we can only take the
vq->mutex lock which is per queue and make the concurrent multiqueue
process having less lock contention. Further, in the read side of
vq->private_data, we can even do not take the lock if it is accessed in
the vhost worker thread, because it is protected by "vhost rcu".

Getting use of virtio rings correct is tricky, and a recent patch saw
an implementation of in-kernel rings (as separate from userspace).

This abstracts the business of dealing with the virtio ring layout
from the access (userspace or direct); to do this, we use function
pointers, which gcc inlines correctly.

Asias He 1b7f390eb3 tcm_vhost: Multi-queue support
This adds virtio-scsi multi-queue support to tcm_vhost. In order to use
multi-queue, guest side multi-queue support is need. It can
be found here:

   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/18/166

Currently, only one thread is created by vhost core code for each
vhost_scsi instance. Even if there are multi-queues, all the handling of
guest kick (vhost_scsi_handle_kick) are processed in one thread. This is
not optimal. Luckily, most of the work is offloaded to the tcm_vhost
workqueue.

Some initial perf numbers:
1 queue,  4 targets, 1 lun per target
4K request size, 50% randread + 50% randwrite: 127K/127k IOPS

4 queues, 4 targets, 1 lun per target

Asias He 67e18cf9ab tcm_vhost: Multi-target support
In order to take advantages of Paolo's multi-queue virito-scsi, we need
multi-target support in tcm_vhost first. Otherwise all the requests go
to one queue and other queues are idle.

This patch makes:

1. All the targets under the wwpn is seen and can be used by guest.
2. No need to pass the tpgt number in struct vhost_scsi_target to
   tcm_vhost.ko. Only wwpn is needed.
3. We can always pass max_target = 255 to guest now, since we abort the
   request who's target id does not exist.

Changes in v2:
- Handle non-contiguous tpgt

Changes in v3:
- Simplfy lock in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint
- Return -EEXIST when does not match

    longer term fix has been implemented in net-next.

11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops.  This

    sending is halted indefinitely.  Just remove the adjustments
    entirely, they aren't really needed.  From Eric Dumazet.

Jason Wang 2b8b328b61 vhost_net: handle polling errors when setting backend
Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues:

- vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll,
  this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to
  add itself to the waitqueue
- userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling
  failed.

Solve this by:

- check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue
- report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value
  will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend

After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it
will addressed by the next patch.

We seem to be down to eliminating theoretical bugs

Even when vhost-net is in zero-copy transmit mode,
net core might still decide to copy the skb later

     nab)
   - tcm_vhost: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls (nab

  The last series for adding a new target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() fabric
  caller (as requested by hch) that accepts pre-allocated SGL memory
  (using existing logic), along with converting tcm_loop + tcm_vhost has
  only been in -next for the last days, but has gotten enough review
  +testing and is clear enough a mechanical change that I think it's
  reasonable to merge for -rc1 code.

This patch converts tcm_vhost to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() for

This includes removing the original open-coded fabric uses of target

target_setup_cmd_from_cdb() and transport_handle_cdb_direct() logic.

It also includes adding a handful of new tcm_vhost_cmnd member +

context I/O submission within tcm_vhost_submission_work()

Roland Dreier 9c58b7ddd7 target: Simplify fabric sense data length handling
Every fabric driver has to supply a se_tfo->set_fabric_sense_len()
method, just so iSCSI can return an offset of 2.  However, every fabric
driver is already allocating a sense buffer and passing it into the
target core, either via transport_init_se_cmd() or target_submit_cmd().

So instead of having iSCSI pass the start of its sense buffer into the
core and then later tell the core to skip the first 2 bytes, it seems
easier for iSCSI just to do the offset of 2 when it passes the sense
buffer into the core.  Then we can drop the se_tfo->set_fabric_sense_len()
everywhere, and just add a couple of lines of code to iSCSI to set the
sense data length to the beginning of the buffer right before it sends
it over the network.

(nab: Remove .set_fabric_sense_len usage from tcm_qla2xxx_npiv_ops +
      change transport_get_sense_buffer to follow v3.6-rc6 code w/o
      ->set_fabric_sense_len usage)

Michael S. Tsirkin 6de7145ca3 tcm_vhost: Fix vhost_scsi_target structure alignment
Here TRANSPORT_IQN_LEN is 224, which is a multiple of 4.
Since vhost_tpgt is 2 bytes and abi_version is 4, the total size would
be 230.  But gcc needs struct size be aligned to first field size, which
is 4 bytes, so it pads the structure by extra 2 bytes to the total of
232.

This padding is very undesirable in an ABI:
- it can not be initialized easily
- it can not be checked easily
- it can leak information between kernel and userspace

Simplest solution is probably just to make the padding
explicit.

(v2: Add check for zero'ed backend->reserved field for VHOST_SCSI_SET_ENDPOINT
     and VHOST_SCSI_CLEAR_ENDPOINT ops as requested by MST)

Stefan Hajnoczi 163049aefd vhost: make vhost work queue visible
The vhost work queue allows processing to be done in vhost worker thread
context, which uses the owner process mm.  Access to the vring and guest
memory is typically only possible from vhost worker context so it is
useful to allow work to be queued directly by users.

Currently vhost_net only uses the poll wrappers which do not expose the
work queue functions.  However, for tcm_vhost (vhost_scsi) it will be
necessary to queue custom work.

Nadav Har'El d550dda192 vhost: don't forget to schedule()
This is a tiny, but important, patch to vhost.

Vhost's worker thread only called schedule() when it had no work to do, and
it wanted to go to sleep. But if there's always work to do, e.g., the guest
is running a network-intensive program like netperf with small message sizes,
schedule() was *never* called. This had several negative implications (on
non-preemptive kernels):

 1. Passing time was not properly accounted to the "vhost" process (ps and
    top would wrongly show it using zero CPU time).

 2. Sometimes error messages about RCU timeouts would be printed, if the
    core running the vhost thread didn't schedule() for a very long time.

 3. Worst of all, a vhost thread would "hog" the core. If several vhost
    threads need to share the same core, typically one would get most of the
    CPU time (and its associated guest most of the performance), while the
    others hardly get any work done.

The trivial solution is to add

	if (need_resched())
		schedule();

After doing every piece of work. This will not do the heavy schedule() all
the time, just when the timer interrupt decided a reschedule is warranted
(so need_resched returns true).

Thanks to Abel Gordon for this patch.

Michael S. Tsirkin bab632d69e vhost: vhost TX zero-copy support
>From: Shirley Ma <mashirle@us.ibm.com>

This adds experimental zero copy support in vhost-net,
disabled by default. To enable, set
experimental_zcopytx module option to 1.

This patch maintains the outstanding userspace buffers in the
sequence it is delivered to vhost. The outstanding userspace buffers
will be marked as done once the lower device buffers DMA has finished.
This is monitored through last reference of kfree_skb callback. Two
buffer indices are used for this purpose.

The vhost-net device passes the userspace buffers info to lower device
skb through message control. DMA done status check and guest
notification are handled by handle_tx: in the worst case is all buffers
in the vq are in pending/done status, so we need to notify guest to
release DMA done buffers first before we get any new buffers from the
vq.

One known problem is that if the guest stops submitting
buffers, buffers might never get used until some
further action, e.g. device reset. This does not
seem to affect linux guests.

Jason Wang 94249369e9 vhost-net: Unify the code of mergeable and big buffer handling
Codes duplication were found between the handling of mergeable and big
buffers, so this patch tries to unify them. This could be easily done
by adding a quota to the get_rx_bufs() which is used to limit the
number of buffers it returns (for mergeable buffer, the quota is
simply UIO_MAXIOV, for big buffers, the quota is just 1), and then the
previous handle_rx_mergeable() could be resued also for big buffers.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Michael S. Tsirkin ee05d6939e vhost-net: fix range checking in mrg bufs case
In mergeable buffer case, we use headcount, log_num
and seg as indexes in same-size arrays, and
we know that headcount <= seg and
log_num equals either 0 or seg.

Therefore, the right thing to do is range-check seg,
not headcount as we do now: these will be different
if guest chains s/g descriptors (this does not
happen now, but we can not trust the guest).

Long term, we should add BUG_ON checks to verify
two other indexes are what we think they should be.

Michael S. Tsirkin 87d6a412bd vhost: fix attach to cgroups regression
Since 2.6.36-rc1, non-root users of vhost-net fail to attach
if they are in any cgroups.

The reason is that when qemu uses vhost, vhost wants to attach
its thread to all cgroups that qemu has.  But we got the API backwards,
so a non-priveledged process (Qemu) tried to control
the priveledged one (vhost), which fails.

Fix this by switching to the new cgroup_attach_task_all,
and running it from the vhost thread.

David Stevens 8dd014adfe vhost-net: mergeable buffers support
This adds support for mergeable buffers in vhost-net: this is needed
for older guests without indirect buffer support, as well
as for zero copy with some devices.

Includes changes by Michael S. Tsirkin to make the
patch as low risk as possible (i.e., close to no changes
when feature is disabled).

Tejun Heo c23f3445e6 vhost: replace vhost_workqueue with per-vhost kthread
Replace vhost_workqueue with per-vhost kthread.  Other than callback
argument change from struct work_struct * to struct vhost_work *,
there's no visible change to vhost_poll_*() interface.

This conversion is to make each vhost use a dedicated kthread so that
resource control via cgroup can be applied.

Partially based on Sridhar Samudrala's patch.

* Updated to use sub structure vhost_work instead of directly using
  vhost_poll at Michael's suggestion.

* Added flusher wake_up() optimization at Michael's suggestion.

Changes by MST:
* Converted atomics/barrier use to a spinlock.
* Create thread on SET_OWNER
* Fix flushing

Michael S. Tsirkin 0d4993563b vhost: fix barrier pairing
According to memory-barriers.txt, an smp memory barrier in guest
should always be paired with an smp memory barrier in host,
and I quote "a lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an
error". In case of vhost, failure to flush out used index
update before looking at the interrupt disable flag
could result in missed interrupts, resulting in
networking hang under stress.

This might happen when flags read bypasses used index write.
So we see interrupts disabled and do not interrupt, at the
same time guest writes flags value to enable interrupt,
reads an old used index value, thinks that
used ring is empty and waits for interrupt.

Note: the barrier we pair with here is in
drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c, function
vring_enable_cb.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Michael S. Tsirkin 5659338c88 vhost-net: switch to smp barriers
vhost-net only uses memory barriers to control SMP effects
(communication with userspace potentially running on a different CPU),
so it should use SMP barriers and not mandatory barriers for memory
access ordering, as suggested by Documentation/memory-barriers.txt

Michael S. Tsirkin 17660f8124 vhost: fix TUN=m VHOST_NET=y
drivers/built-in.o: In function `get_tun_socket':
    net.c:(.text+0x15436e): undefined reference to `tun_get_socket'

If tun is a module, vhost must be a module, too.
If tun is built-in or disabled, vhost can be built-in.

Note: TUN || !TUN might look a bit strange until you realize
that boolean logic rules do not apply for tristate variables.

Michael S. Tsirkin 3a4d5c94e9 vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server
What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
  migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)

common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear.  I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.

What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.

How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device.  Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.

Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.

Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use

Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item.  The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.
