you need child process to trigger uprobe, but you could have installed
BPF program from parent process (you'd need to make child wait for
parent to be ready, with normal pipe() like we do in other places).
I think generally the less work forked child process does, the better.
All those ASSERT() failures won't produce any output in child process,
unless you run tests in verbose mode, because we haven't implemented
some form of sending all the logs back to the parent process and so
they are completely lost. But that's a separate topic.
Either way, consider using pipe() to coordinate waiting from child on
parent being ready, but otherwise do all the BPF-related heavy lifting
from parent (you can attach BPF programs to specific PID using
bpf_program__attach_uprobe() easily, it's not declarative, but simple
enough).

The patch looks good to me. Just a few nits below:

> +static int do_setxattrat(int dfd, const char __user *pathname, unsigned int at_flags,
Can we please stay within 80 columns (happens in multiple places in the
patch)? I don't insist but it makes things easier to read in some setups so
I prefer it.

So I like how in previous syscalls you have 'at_flags', 'lookup_flags', and
'xattr_flags'. That makes things much easier to digest. Can you please stay
with that convention here as well and call this argument 'at_flags'? Also I
think the argument ordering like "dfd, pathname, at_flags, list, size" is
more consistent with other syscalls you define.

Use the same parameter ordering for all four newly added *xattrat
syscalls:
dirfd, pathname, at_flags, ...
Also consistently use unsigned int as the type for at_flags.

* [RFC PATCH 0/1] Change failover behavior for DIRECT writes in ext4/block fops
From: Jeremy Bongio @ 2024-05-01 23:15 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Ted Tso; +Cc: linux-ext4, linux-fsdevel, linux-api, linux-block, Jeremy Bongio
From: Jeremy Bongio <jbongio@google.com>
In kernel 6.9, for an O_DIRECT write:
xfs - Will fallback to a sync, buffered write for -ENOTBLK (for reflink CoW)
ext2/3/4 - will fallback to a sync, buffered write for short writes.
If iomap returns -ENOTBLK, write will return status of 0.
block fops - will fallback to a sync, buffered write for short writes.
zonefs - Will fallback to a sync, buffered write for -ENOTBLK.
Will return the bytes written for a short write, no fallback.
Relevant commit:
60263d5889e6d "iomap: fall back to buffered writes for invalidation failures"
In most cases, I think users would be surprised if an O_DIRECT write request
silently resulted in a buffered request.
The iomap_dio_rw() return code -ENOTBLK means page invalidation failed before
submitting the bio.
Is falling back to buffered IO for short writes or -ENOTBLK desirable in ext4
or block fops?
Jeremy Bongio (1):
Remove buffered failover for ext4 and block fops direct writes.

ext4 and block fops would both failover to syncronous, buffered writes if
the direct IO results in a short write where only a portion of the request
was completed.
This patch changes the behavior to simply return the number of bytes
written if the direct write is short.

Thank you very much for making the effort here, much appreciated :)
While I agree that pidfds would fix the PID race conditions, I will move
this interface to support TIDs instead, as noted by Florian and Peter.
With TID the race conditions are diminished I reckon?

Please don't combine ext4 and block changes in a single patch. Please
also explain why you want to change things.
AFAIK this is simply the historic behavior of the old direct I/O code
that's been around forever. I think the XFS semantics make a lot more
sense, but people might rely on this one way or another.

Unless I'm missing something the question here is PID (as in TGID aka
thread-group leader id gotten via getpid()) vs TID (thread specific id
gotten via gettid()). You want the thread-specific id as you want to
interact with the futex state of a specific thread not the thread-group
leader.
Aside from that TIDs are subject to the same race conditions that PIDs
are. They are allocated from the same pool (see alloc_pid()).

For most mutex types (but not robust mutexes), it is undefined in
userspace if a thread exits while it has locked a mutex. Such a usage
condition would ensure that the race doesn't happen, I believe.
From a glibc perspective, we typically cannot use long-term file
descriptors (that are kept open across function calls) because some
applications do not expect them, or even close them behind our back.

Florian

The argument is a bit shaky imho because the race not being able to
happen is predicated on no one being careless enough to exit with a
mutex held. That doesn't do anything against someone doing it on
purpose.

Yeah, good point. Note, I suggested it as an extension not as a
replacement for the TID. I still think it would be a useful extension in
general.

Applications will need a way to determine when it is safe to close the
pidfd, though. If we automate this in glibc (in the same way we handle
thread stack deallocation for example), I think we are essentially back
to square one, except that pidfd collisions are much more likely than
TID collisions, especially on systems that have adjusted kernel.pid_max.
(File descriptor allocation is designed to maximize collisions, after
all.)

hi,
as part of the effort on speeding up the uprobes [0] coming with
return uprobe optimization by using syscall instead of the trap
on the uretprobe trampoline.
The speed up depends on instruction type that uprobe is installed
and depends on specific HW type, please check patch 1 for details.
Patches 1-6 are based on bpf-next/master, but path 1 and 2 are
apply-able on linux-trace.git tree probes/for-next branch.
Patch 7 is based on man-pages master.
v4 changes:
- added acks [Oleg,Andrii,Masami]
- reworded the man page and adding more info to NOTE section [Masami]
- rewrote bpf tests not to use trace_pipe [Andrii]
- cc-ed linux-man list
Also available at:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jolsa/perf.git
uretprobe_syscall
thanks,
jirka
Notes to check list items in Documentation/process/adding-syscalls.rst:
- System Call Alternatives
New syscall seems like the best way in here, becase we need
just to quickly enter kernel with no extra arguments processing,
which we'd need to do if we decided to use another syscall.
- Designing the API: Planning for Extension
The uretprobe syscall is very specific and most likely won't be
extended in the future.
At the moment it does not take any arguments and even if it does
in future, it's allowed to be called only from trampoline prepared
by kernel, so there'll be no broken user.
- Designing the API: Other Considerations
N/A because uretprobe syscall does not return reference to kernel
object.
- Proposing the API
Wiring up of the uretprobe system call si in separate change,
selftests and man page changes are part of the patchset.
- Generic System Call Implementation
There's no CONFIG option for the new functionality because it
keeps the same behaviour from the user POV.
- x86 System Call Implementation
It's 64-bit syscall only.
- Compatibility System Calls (Generic)
N/A uretprobe syscall has no arguments and is not supported
for compat processes.
- Compatibility System Calls (x86)
N/A uretprobe syscall is not supported for compat processes.
- System Calls Returning Elsewhere
N/A.
- Other Details
N/A.
- Testing
Adding new bpf selftests and ran ltp on top of this change.
- Man Page
Attached.
- Do not call System Calls in the Kernel

Wiring up uretprobe system call, which comes in following changes.
We need to do the wiring before, because the uretprobe implementation
needs the syscall number.
Note at the moment uretprobe syscall is supported only for native
64-bit process.

* [PATCHv4 bpf-next 2/7] uprobe: Add uretprobe syscall to speed up return probe

In-Reply-To: <20240502122313.1579719-1-jolsa@kernel.org>
Adding uretprobe syscall instead of trap to speed up return probe.
At the moment the uretprobe setup/path is:
- install entry uprobe
- when the uprobe is hit, it overwrites probed function's return address
on stack with address of the trampoline that contains breakpoint
instruction
- the breakpoint trap code handles the uretprobe consumers execution and
jumps back to original return address
This patch replaces the above trampoline's breakpoint instruction with new
ureprobe syscall call. This syscall does exactly the same job as the trap
with some more extra work:
- syscall trampoline must save original value for rax/r11/rcx registers
on stack - rax is set to syscall number and r11/rcx are changed and
used by syscall instruction
- the syscall code reads the original values of those registers and
restore those values in task's pt_regs area
- only caller from trampoline exposed in '[uprobes]' is allowed,
the process will receive SIGILL signal otherwise
Even with some extra work, using the uretprobes syscall shows speed
improvement (compared to using standard breakpoint):
On Intel (11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz)
current:
uretprobe-nop : 1.498 ± 0.000M/s
uretprobe-push : 1.448 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-ret : 0.816 ± 0.001M/s
with the fix:
uretprobe-nop : 1.969 ± 0.002M/s < 31% speed up
uretprobe-push : 1.910 ± 0.000M/s < 31% speed up
uretprobe-ret : 0.934 ± 0.000M/s < 14% speed up
On Amd (AMD Ryzen 7 5700U)
current:
uretprobe-nop : 0.778 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-push : 0.744 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-ret : 0.540 ± 0.001M/s
with the fix:
uretprobe-nop : 0.860 ± 0.001M/s < 10% speed up
uretprobe-push : 0.818 ± 0.001M/s < 10% speed up
uretprobe-ret : 0.578 ± 0.000M/s < 7% speed up
The performance test spawns a thread that runs loop which triggers
uprobe with attached bpf program that increments the counter that
gets printed in results above.
The uprobe (and uretprobe) kind is determined by which instruction
is being patched with breakpoint instruction. That's also important
for uretprobes, because uprobe is installed for each uretprobe.
The performance test is part of bpf selftests:
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/run_bench_uprobes.sh
Note at the moment uretprobe syscall is supported only for native
64-bit process, compat process still uses standard breakpoint.

Adding test that creates uprobe consumer on uretprobe which changes some
of the registers. Making sure the changed registers are propagated to the
user space when the ureptobe syscall trampoline is used on x86_64.
To be able to do this, adding support to bpf_testmod to create uprobe via
new attribute file:
/sys/kernel/bpf_testmod_uprobe
This file is expecting file offset and creates related uprobe on current
process exe file and removes existing uprobe if offset is 0. The can be
only single uprobe at any time.
The uprobe has specific consumer that changes registers used in ureprobe
syscall trampoline and which are later checked in the test.

Adding test to verify that when called from outside of the
trampoline provided by kernel, the uretprobe syscall will cause
calling process to receive SIGILL signal and the attached bpf
program is not executed.

+.SH NAME
+uretprobe \- execute pending return uprobes
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B int uretprobe(void)
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Kernel is using
+.BR uretprobe()
+syscall to trigger uprobe return probe consumers instead of using
+standard breakpoint instruction.
+
+The uretprobe syscall is not supposed to be called directly by user, it's allowed
+to be invoked only through user space trampoline provided by kernel.
+When called from outside of this trampoline, the calling process will receive
+.BR SIGILL .
+
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.BR uretprobe()
+return value is specific for given architecture.
+
+.SH VERSIONS
+This syscall is not specified in POSIX,
+and details of its behavior vary across systems.
+.SH STANDARDS
+None.
+.SH NOTES
+.BR uretprobe()
+syscall is initially introduced on x86-64 architecture, because doing syscall
+is faster than doing breakpoint trap on it. It might be extended to other
+architectures.
+
+.BR uretprobe()
+syscall exists only to allow the invocation of return uprobe consumers.
+It should
+.B never
+be called directly.
+Details of the arguments (if any) passed to
+.BR uretprobe ()
+and the return value are specific for given architecture.

Yep, that's the plan.

(Note that with pidfs (current mainline), pidfds have 64bit unique inode
numbers that are unique for the lifetime of the system. So they can
reliably be compared via statx() and so on.)

Please use .P instead of a blank. See man-pages(7):
Formatting conventions (general)
Paragraphs should be separated by suitable markers (usually either
.P or .IP). Do not separate paragraphs using blank lines, as this
results in poor rendering in some output formats (such as Post‐
Script and PDF).

s/user space/user-space/
Missing a few 'the' too, here and in the rest of the page.

You could add a HISTORY section.

I agree that the ext4 and block I/O change should be split into two
separate patches.
As for the rest, we discussed this at the weekly ext4 conference call
last week and at the, I had indicated that this was indeed the
historical Direct I/O behavior. Darrick mentioned that XFS is only
falling back to buffered I/O in one circumstances, which is when there
is direct I/O to a file which is reflinked, which since the
application wouldn't know that this might be the case, falling back to
buffered I/O was the best of not-so-great alternatives.
It might be a good idea if we could agree on a unfied set of standard
semantics for Direct I/O, including what should happen if there is an
I/O error in the middle of a DIO request; should the kernel return a
short write? Should it silently fallback to buffered I/O? Given that
XFS has had a fairly strict "never fall back to buffered" practice,
and there haven't been users screaming bloody murder, perhaps it is
time that we can leave the old historical Direct I/O semantics behind,
and we should just be more strict.
Ext4 can make a decision about what to do on its own, but if we want
to unify behavior across all file systems and all of the direct I/O
implications in the kernels, then this is a discussion that would need
to take place on linux-fsdevel, linux-block, and/or LSF/MM.
With that context, what are folks' thiking about the proposal that we
unify Linux's Direct I/O semantics? I think it would be good if it
was (a) clearly documented, and (b) not be surprising for userspace
application which they switch beteween file systems, or between a file
system and a raw block device. (Which for certain enterprise
database, is mostly only use for benchmarketing, on the back cover of
Business Week, but sometimes there might be users who decide to
squeeze that last 1% of performance by going to a raw block device,
and it might be nice if they see the same behaviour when they make
that change.)
Cheers,
- Ted
