bpf, x86_32: add eBPF JIT compiler for ia32

2018-05-03T16:15:25+00:00

The JIT compiler emits ia32 bit instructions. Currently, It supports eBPF only. Classic BPF is supported because of the conversion by BPF core. Almost all instructions from eBPF ISA supported except the following: BPF_ALU64 | BPF_DIV | BPF_K BPF_ALU64 | BPF_DIV | BPF_X BPF_ALU64 | BPF_MOD | BPF_K BPF_ALU64 | BPF_MOD | BPF_X BPF_STX | BPF_XADD | BPF_W BPF_STX | BPF_XADD | BPF_DW It doesn't support BPF_JMP|BPF_CALL with BPF_PSEUDO_CALL at the moment. IA32 has few general purpose registers, EAX|EDX|ECX|EBX|ESI|EDI. I use EAX|EDX|ECX|EBX as temporary registers to simulate instructions in eBPF ISA, and allocate ESI|EDI to BPF_REG_AX for constant blinding, all others eBPF registers, R0-R10, are simulated through scratch space on stack. The reasons behind the hardware registers allocation policy are: 1:MUL need EAX:EDX, shift operation need ECX, so they aren't fit for general eBPF 64bit register simulation. 2:We need at least 4 registers to simulate most eBPF ISA operations on registers operands instead of on register&memory operands. 3:We need to put BPF_REG_AX on hardware registers, or constant blinding will degrade jit performance heavily. Tested on PC (Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-5200U CPU). Testing results on i5-5200U: 1) test_bpf: Summary: 349 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [319/341 JIT'ed] 2) test_progs: Summary: 83 PASSED, 0 FAILED. 3) test_lpm: OK 4) test_lru_map: OK 5) test_verifier: Summary: 828 PASSED, 0 FAILED. Above tests are all done in following two conditions separately: 1:bpf_jit_enable=1 and bpf_jit_harden=0 2:bpf_jit_enable=1 and bpf_jit_harden=2 Below are some numbers for this jit implementation: Note: I run test_progs in kselftest 100 times continuously for every condition, the numbers are in format: total/times=avg. The numbers that test_bpf reports show almost the same relation. a:jit_enable=0 and jit_harden=0 b:jit_enable=1 and jit_harden=0 test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv4:15622/100=156 test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv4:10674/100=106 test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv6:9130/100=91 test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv6:4855/100=48 test_xdp:PASS:ipv4:240198/100=2401 test_xdp:PASS:ipv4:138912/100=1389 test_xdp:PASS:ipv6:137326/100=1373 test_xdp:PASS:ipv6:68542/100=685 test_l4lb:PASS:ipv4:61100/100=611 test_l4lb:PASS:ipv4:37302/100=373 test_l4lb:PASS:ipv6:101000/100=1010 test_l4lb:PASS:ipv6:55030/100=550 c:jit_enable=1 and jit_harden=2 test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv4:10558/100=105 test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv6:5092/100=50 test_xdp:PASS:ipv4:131902/100=1319 test_xdp:PASS:ipv6:77932/100=779 test_l4lb:PASS:ipv4:38924/100=389 test_l4lb:PASS:ipv6:57520/100=575 The numbers show we get 30%~50% improvement. See Documentation/networking/filter.txt for more information. Changelog: Changes v5-v6: 1:Add do {} while (0) to RETPOLINE_RAX_BPF_JIT for consistence reason. 2:Clean up non-standard comments, reported by Daniel Borkmann. 3:Fix a memory leak issue, repoted by Daniel Borkmann. Changes v4-v5: 1:Delete is_on_stack, BPF_REG_AX is the only one on real hardware registers, so just check with it. 2:Apply commit 1612a981b766 ("bpf, x64: fix JIT emission for dead code"), suggested by Daniel Borkmann. Changes v3-v4: 1:Fix changelog in commit. I install llvm-6.0, then test_progs willn't report errors. I submit another patch: "bpf: fix misaligned access for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type on x86_32 platform" to fix another problem, after that patch, test_verifier willn't report errors too. 2:Fix clear r0[1] twice unnecessarily in *BPF_IND|BPF_ABS* simulation. Changes v2-v3: 1:Move BPF_REG_AX to real hardware registers for performance reason. 3:Using bpf_load_pointer instead of bpf_jit32.S, suggested by Daniel Borkmann. 4:Delete partial codes in 1c2a088a6626, suggested by Daniel Borkmann. 5:Some bug fixes and comments improvement. Changes v1-v2: 1:Fix bug in emit_ia32_neg64. 2:Fix bug in emit_ia32_arsh_r64. 3:Delete filename in top level comment, suggested by Thomas Gleixner. 4:Delete unnecessary boiler plate text, suggested by Thomas Gleixner. 5:Rewrite some words in changelog. 6:CodingSytle improvement and a little more comments.

docs/admin-guide/mm: start moving here files from Documentation/vm

2018-04-27T23:02:48+00:00

Several documents in Documentation/vm fit quite well into the "admin/user guide" category. The documents that don't overload the reader with lots of implementation details and provide coherent description of certain feature can be moved to Documentation/admin-guide/mm.

Merge branch 'mm-rst' into docs-next

2018-04-16T20:25:08+00:00

Mike Rapoport says: These patches convert files in Documentation/vm to ReST format, add an initial index and link it to the top level documentation. There are no contents changes in the documentation, except few spelling fixes. The relatively large diffstat stems from the indentation and paragraph wrapping changes. I've tried to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, but I could miss some places that needed markup and add some markup where it was not necessary. [jc: significant conflicts in vm/hmm.rst]

taint: add taint for randstruct

2018-04-11T17:28:35+00:00

Since the randstruct plugin can intentionally produce extremely unusual kernel structure layouts (even performance pathological ones), some maintainers want to be able to trivially determine if an Oops is coming from a randstruct-built kernel, so as to keep their sanity when debugging. This adds the new flag and initializes taint_mask immediately when built with randstruct.

mm/page_alloc: don't reserve ZONE_HIGHMEM for ZONE_MOVABLE request

2018-04-11T17:28:32+00:00

Freepage on ZONE_HIGHMEM doesn't work for kernel memory so it's not that important to reserve. When ZONE_MOVABLE is used, this problem would theorectically cause to decrease usable memory for GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocation request which is mainly used for page cache and anon page allocation. So, fix it by setting 0 to sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio[ZONE_HIGHMEM]. And, defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES - 1 size makes code complex. For example, if there is highmem system, following reserve ratio is activated for *NORMAL ZONE* which would be easyily misleading people. #ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM 32 #endif This patch also fixes this situation by defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES and place "#ifdef" to right place.

net: do not create fallback tunnels for non-default namespaces

2018-03-09T16:23:11+00:00

fallback tunnels (like tunl0, gre0, gretap0, erspan0, sit0, ip6tnl0, ip6gre0) are automatically created when the corresponding module is loaded. These tunnels are also automatically created when a new network namespace is created, at a great cost. In many cases, netns are used for isolation purposes, and these extra network devices are a waste of resources. We are using thousands of netns per host, and hit the netns creation/delete bottleneck a lot. (Many thanks to Kirill for recent work on this) Add a new sysctl so that we can opt-out from this automatic creation. Note that these tunnels are still created for the initial namespace, to be the least intrusive for typical setups.
