FWIW I'd also prefer to allow mixing. "Some NICs" can decide HDS very flexibly, incl. landing full jumbo frames into the "headers". There's no sender API today to signal how to mark the data for selective landing, but if Mina already has the rx side written to allow that...

I'm not sure there are any spare bits available. Although CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV and CONFIG_NET_SCHED seem to already add padding.

Can we mark a socket as devmem-only? Do we have any use-case for those hybrid setups? Or, let me put it that way: do we expect API callers to handle both linear and non-linear cases correctly? As a consumer of the previous versions of these apis internally, I find all those corner cases confusing :-( Hence trying to understand whether we can make it a bit more rigid and properly defined upstream. But going back to that MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM flag. If the application is supposed to handle both linear and devmem chucks, why do we need this extra MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM opt-in to signal that it's able to process it? From Mina's reply, it seemed like MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM is there to protect random applications that get misrouted devmem skb. I don't see how returning EFAULT helps in that case.

A TCP socket can receive 'valid TCP packets' from many different sources, especially with BPF hooks... Think of a bonding setup, packets being mirrored by some switches or even from tc. Better double check than be sorry. We have not added a 5th component in the 4-tuple lookups, being "is this socket a devmem one". A mix of regular/devmem skb is supported.

The use case for not setting that flag is existing applications that are not aware of devmem cmsgs. I don't want those applications to think they're receiving data in the linear buffer only to find out that the data is in devmem and they ignored the devmem cmsg. So, what happens: - MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM provided and next skb in the queue is devmem: application receives cmsgs. - MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM provided and next skb in the queue is non-devmem: application receives in the linear buffer. - MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM not provided and net skb is devmem: application receives EFAULT. - MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM not provided and next skb is non-devmem: application receives in the linear buffer. My bad on not including some docs about this. The next version should have the commit message beefed up to explain all this, or a docs patch. -- Thanks, Mina

We might add another bpf_bypass_setsockopt to special case SO_DEVMEM_DONTNEED.

Mixing in sendmsg is indeed ugly :-( I tried exactly the inverse of that when originally adding MSG_ZEROCOPY: to allow piggy-backing zerocopy completion notifications on sendmsg calls by writing to sendmsg msg_control on return to user. It required significant code churn, which the performance gains did not warrant. Doing so also breaks the simple rule that recv is for reading and send is for writing. > Regarding hot patch: aren't we already doing copy_to_user for the tokens in > this hot path, so having one extra condition shouldn't hurt too much?

I see. I'm a bit concerned if we start limiting what we can do in sockets because of dependencies that BPF processing places on them. The use case for BPF [gs]etsockopt is limited to specific control mode calls. Would it make sense to just exclude calls like SO_DEVMEM_DONTNEED from this interpositioning? At a high level what we really want is a high rate metadata path from user to kernel. And there are no perfect solutions. From kernel to user we use the socket error queue for this. That was never intended for high event rate itself, dealing with ICMP errors and the like before timestamps and zerocopy notifications were added. If I squint hard enough I can see some prior art in mixing data and high rate state changes within the same channel in NIC descriptor queues, where some devices do this, e.g., { "insert encryption key", "send packet" }. But fundamentally I think we should keep the socket queues for data only.

It's mostly because I've been bitten too much by custom socket options that are not really on/off/update-value operations: 29ebbba7d461 - bpf: Don't EFAULT for {g,s}setsockopt with wrong optlen 00e74ae08638 - bpf: Don't EFAULT for getsockopt with optval=NULL 9cacf81f8161 - bpf: Remove extra lock_sock for TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE d8fe449a9c51 - bpf: Don't return EINVAL from {get,set}sockopt when optlen > PAGE_SIZE I do agree that this particular case of SO_DEVMEM_DONTNEED seems ok, but things tend to evolve and change.

It would have to be sendmsg, as recvmsg is a copy_to_user operation. I am not aware of any precedent in multiplexing the data stream and a control operation stream in this manner. It would also require adding a branch in the sendmsg hot path. The memory is associated with the socket, freed when the socket is closed as well as on SO_DEVMEM_DONTNEED. Fundamentally it is a socket state operation, for which setsockopt is the socket interface. Is your request purely a dislike, or is there some technical concern with BPF and setsockopt?

This is done for some simplicity, because iov's are given to the user via cmsg, but pages are copied into the linear buffer. I think it would be confusing for the user if we simultaneously copied some data to the linear buffer and gave them a devmem cmsgs in the same recvmsg() call. So, my simplicity is: 1. in a single skb, all frags must be devmem or non-devmem, no mixing. 2. In a single recvmsg() call, we only process devmem or non-devmem skbs, no mixing. -- Thanks, Mina

Also, the flag on the skb is an optimization - a high level signal that one or more frags is in unreadable memory. There is no requirement that all of the frags are in the same memory type. >> >> David: maybe there should be such a requirement (that they all are >> unreadable)?

What requires that restriction? In all of the uses of skb->devmem and skb_frags_not_readable() what matters is if any frag is not readable, then frag list walk or collapse is avoided.

You copy it to the userspace in a special way because your frags are page_is_page_pool_iov(). I agree with David, the skb bit is just and optimization.

We might need to double-check bpf_xdp_copy_buf which is having its own, non-skb shinfo and frags. And in general, xdp can reference those shinfo frags early... (xdp part happens before we create an skb with all devmem association)

There is no requirement that > all of the frags are in the same memory type. The flag indicates that the skb contains all devmem dma-buf memory specifically, not generic 'not_readable' frags as the comment says: + * @devmem: indicates that all the fragments in this skb are backed by + * device memory. The reason it's not a generic 'not_readable' flag is because handing off a generic not_readable skb to the userspace is semantically not what we're doing. recvmsg() is augmented in this patch series to return a devmem skb to the user via a cmsg_devmem struct which refers specifically to the memory in the dma-buf. recvmsg() in this patch series is not augmented to give any 'not_readable' skb to the userspace. IMHO skb->devmem + an skb_frags_not_readable() as implemented is correct. If a new type of unreadable skbs are introduced to the stack, I imagine the stack would implement: 1. new header flag: skb->newmem 2. static inline bool skb_frags_not_readable(const struct skb_buff *skb) { return skb->devmem || skb->newmem; } 3. tcp_recvmsg_devmem() would handle skb->devmem skbs is in this patch series, but tcp_recvmsg_newmem() would handle skb->newmem skbs. -- Thanks, Mina

Also, the flag on the skb is an optimization - a high level signal that one or more frags is in unreadable memory. There is no requirement that all of the frags are in the same memory type.

It better communicates the fact that the stack shouldn't dereference the frags (because it has 'devmem' fragments or for some other potential future reason).
