9pnet: allow making incomplete read requests

2020-03-27T09:29:56+00:00

A user doesn't necessarily want to wait for all the requested data to
be available, since the waiting time for each request is unbounded.

The new method permits sending one read request at a time and getting
the response ASAP, allowing to use 9pnet with synthetic file systems
representing arbitrary data streams.

9p: Add refcount to p9_req_t

2018-09-07T16:39:47+00:00

To avoid use-after-free(s), use a refcount to keep track of the
usable references to any instantiated struct p9_req_t.

This commit adds p9_req_put(), p9_req_get() and p9_req_try_get() as
wrappers to kref_put(), kref_get() and kref_get_unless_zero().
These are used by the client and the transports to keep track of
valid requests' references.

p9_free_req() is added back and used as callback by kref_put().

Add SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU as it ensures that the memory freed by
kmem_cache_free() will not be reused for another type until the rcu
synchronisation period is over, so an address gotten under rcu read
lock is safe to inc_ref() without corrupting random memory while
the lock is held.

9p: add a per-client fcall kmem_cache

2018-09-07T16:39:47+00:00

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
end-to-end latency.

The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.

Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.

Some figures on two beefy VMs with Connect-IB (sriov) / trans=rdma,
with ior running 32 processes in parallel doing small 32 bytes IOs:
 - no alloc (4.18-rc7 request cache): 65.4k req/s
 - non-power of two alloc, no patch: 61.6k req/s
 - power of two alloc, no patch: 62.2k req/s
 - non-power of two alloc, with patch: 64.7k req/s
 - power of two alloc, with patch: 65.1k req/s

9p: embed fcall in req to round down buffer allocs

2018-09-07T16:39:45+00:00

'msize' is often a power of two, or at least page-aligned, so avoiding
an overhead of two dozen bytes for each allocation will help the
allocator do its work and reduce memory fragmentation.

9p: Use a slab for allocating requests

2018-08-29T04:39:57+00:00

Replace the custom batch allocation with a slab.  Use an IDR to store
pointers to the active requests instead of an array.  We don't try to
handle P9_NOTAG specially; the IDR will happily shrink all the way back
once the TVERSION call has completed.

9p: Embed wait_queue_head into p9_req_t

2018-08-13T00:21:44+00:00

On a 64-bit system, the wait_queue_head_t is 24 bytes while the pointer
to it is 8 bytes.  Growing the p9_req_t by 16 bytes is better than
performing a 24-byte memory allocation.
