broken CRCs at NVMeF target with SIW & NVMe/TCP transports

broken CRCs at NVMeF target with SIW & NVMe/TCP transports

[Krishnamraju Eraparaju]

I'm seeing broken CRCs at NVMeF target while running the below program
at host. Here RDMA transport is SoftiWARP, but I'm also seeing the
same issue with NVMe/TCP aswell.

It appears to me that the same buffer is being rewritten by the
application/ULP before getting the completion for the previous requests.
getting the completion for the previous requests. HW based
HW based trasports(like iw_cxgb4) are not showing this issue because
they copy/DMA and then compute the CRC on copied buffer.

Please share your thoughts/comments/suggestions on this.

Thanks Krishna!

Yes, I see those errors as well. For TCP/NVMeF, I see it if
the data digest is enabled, which is functional similar to
have CRC enabled for iWarp. This appears to be your suggested
'-G' command line switch during TCP connect.

For SoftiWarp at host side and iWarp hardware at target side,
CRC gets enabled. Then I see that problem at host side for
SEND type work requests: A page of data referenced by the
SEND gets sometimes modified by the ULP after CRC computation
and before the data gets handed over (copied) to TCP via
kernel_sendmsg(), and far before the ULP reaps a work
completion for that SEND. So the ULP sometimes touches the
buffer after passing ownership to the provider, and before
getting it back by a matching work completion.

With siw and CRC switched off, this issue goes undetected,
since TCP copies the buffer at some point in time, and
only computes its TCP/IP checksum on a stable copy, or
typically even offloaded.

Another question is if it is possible that we are finally
placing stale data, or if closing the file recovers the
error by re-sending affected data. With my experiments,
until now I never detected broken file content after
file close. 


Thanks,
Bernard.

Well, that's a plain ULP bug. It's the very definition of a
send queue work request completion that the buffer has been
accepted by the LLP. Would the ULP read a receive buffer before
getting a completion? Same thing. Would the ULP complain if
its application consumer wrote data into async i/o O_DIRECT
buffers, or while it computed a krb5i hash? Yep.

An excellent test, and I'd love to know what ULPs/apps you
caught with it.

For TCP we can set BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES.  For RDMA I don't think that
is a good idea as pretty much all RDMA block drivers rely on the
DMA behavior above.  The answer is to bounce buffer the data in
SoftiWARP / SoftRoCE.

Hmm, can you elaborate a little more here? I see that flag being
set for data digest enabled (e.g. nvme/host/core.c:nvme_alloc_ns()).
But enabling that data digest CRC is exactly when the NVMeF/TCP
target detects the issue and drops the frame and disconnects...?

The current situation for NVMeF/TCP is that the data digest is
not enabled per default and buffer changes are not detected then.

Krishna first detected it with using siw against hardware iWarp
target, since the CRC gets negotiated then.

Another extra copy of user data isn't really charming. Can we
somehow let the ULP have its fingers crossed until the buffer
got transferred, as signaled back?

Best,
Bernard.

We already do, see nvme_alloc_ns.

Krishna was getting the issue when testing TCP/NVMeF with -G
during connect. That enables data digest and STABLE_WRITES
I think. So to me it seems we don't get stable pages, but
pages which are touched after handover to the provider.

Non of the transports modifies the data at any point, both will
scan it to compute crc. So surely this is coming from the fs,
Krishna does this happen with xfs as well?

Unfortunately, issue is still occuring with this patch also.

Looks like the integrity of the data buffer right after the CRC
computation(data digest) is what causing this issue, despite the
buffer being sent via sendpage or no_sendpage.

Thanks,
Krishna.

I assume this happens with iSCSI as well? There is nothing special
we are doing with respect to digest.

I don't see this issue with iscsi-tcp.

May be blk-mq is causing this issue? I assume iscsi-tcp does not have
blk_mq support yet upstream to verify with blk_mq enabled.
I tried on Ubuntu 19.10(which is based on Linux kernel 5.3), note that
RHEL does not support DataDigest.

The reason that I'm seeing this issue only with NVMe(tcp/softiwarp) &
iSER(softiwarp) is becuase of NVMeF&ISER using blk-mq? 

Anyhow, I see the content of the page is being updated by upper layers
while the tranport driver is computing CRC on that page content and
this needs a fix.

one could very easily recreate this issue running the below simple program over
NVMe/TCP.
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main() {
	int i;
	char* line1 = "123";
	FILE* fp;
	while(1) {
		fp = fopen("/mnt/tmp.txt", "w");
		setvbuf(fp, NULL, _IONBF, 0);
		for (i=0; i<100000; i++)
		     if ((fwrite(line1, 1, strlen(line1), fp) !=
strlen(line1)))
			exit(1);

		if (fclose(fp) != 0)
			exit(1);
	}
return 0;
}

Krishna, do you happen to run with nvme multipath enabled?
