[PATCH] mmc: rpmb: do not force a retune before RPMB switch

[PATCH] mmc: rpmb: do not force a retune before RPMB switch

[Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz]

Requesting a retune before switching to the RPMB partition has been
observed to cause CRC errors on the RPMB reads (-EILSEQ).

Since RPMB reads can not be retried, the clients would be directly
affected by the errors.

This commit disables the request prior to RPMB switching while allowing
the pause interface to still request a retune before the pause for other
use cases.

This was verified with the sdhci-of-arasan driver (ZynqMP) configured
for HS200 using two separate eMMC cards (DG4064 and 064GB2). In both
cases, the error was easy to reproduce triggering every few tenths of
reads.

Since mmc_blk_part_switch_pre is the only caller of mmc_retune_pause,
How about just move those lines into it?

+1 from me

I wasnt sure if there was some other plan for mmc_retune_pause in the
future hence why I didnt remove it and extended it instead.

Should I wait for Adrian's confirmation or just go ahead?.

There are still 2 concerns:
1) We don't really know the root cause.  Have you determined
if here are CRC errors in the main partition also?
2) Forcing this on everyone

The original idea was that because re-tuning cannot be
done in RPMB, the need to re-rune in RPMB could be avoided
by always re-tuning before switching to RPMB and then switching
straight back. IIRC re-tuning should guarantee at least 4MB
more I/O without issue.

The alternative to dropping re-tuning in this case could
be to add a retry loop for MMC_DRV_OP_IOCTL_RPMB if the error
is -EILSEQ

Better to just drop mmc_retune_needed(host);

>  		mmc_retune_hold(host);

There is still a small chance that re-tuning
is needed anyway in which case it will still be done.

Actually, you could still do this patch as well because
a CRC error would cause re-tuning before the next retry.

Performance is hardly an issue in the context of RPMB access - 
For most cases it’s a single frame.

right, and I don't disagree with that.

As a test I created a 4GB file from /dev/random which I then copied
several times (dd if= ....)

root@uz3cg-dwg-sec:/sys/kernel/debug/mmc0# cat err_stats

However as soon as I access RPMB and fails (it takes just a few tries) I see:

Yes, the security use case typically stores hashes, variables
(bootcount, upgrade_available, versions, that sort of thing) and
certificates in RPMB.

Since you mentioned, I am seeing that tuning before switching to RPMB
has an impact on performance. As a practical test, just reading a 6 byte
variable incurs in 50ms penalty in kernel space due to the need to
retune 5 times. Not great since the request is coming from a Trusted
Application via OP-TEE through the supplicant meaning this TEE thread
(they are statically allocated CFG_NUM_THREADS) will be reserved for
quite a bit of time.

Roughly:
TA --> OP-TEE (core) --> TEE-supplicant --> Kernel (>50ms) --> OP-TEE --> TA

Adrian, I couldn't find the original performance justification for
enabling this feature globally. At which point do you think it becomes
beneficial to retune before accessing RPMB?

For the security use case I mentioned above - even if it didn't end up in
the occasional CRC errors - I honestly see little value: dropping the
feature - or controlling it via CFG_ - seems more logical to me. Would you
agree?

To add more detail to the timing above, when using RPMB, OP-TEE stores
the secure filesystem on RPMB as well, so accessing one of the variables
stored in the filesystem consists on a number (~5) of individual RPMB
requests (each one forcing a retune, each retune taking around 10ms).

BTW, I also tried delaying the timing between those consecutive retunes
(up to 1 second), but the issue still persisted.

How should we proceed with this patch then? can it be merged as I
proposed? should I rewrite it differently? not sure what is next

It would be good to try to determine if the error happens when the
switch command comes immediately after tuning.  For example, add
a delay after tuning and see if that makes any difference. e.g.

diff --git a/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c b/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c

It might make a difference if there is another command before the
switch command, e.g. add a CMD13 (could keep the tune print to tell
that the CMD13 comes after re-tuning)

Adrian, please could you comment on the above.

The current code is a performance drag for systems that implement their
secure filesystems on RPMB (i.e: OP-TEE) causing each read operation (of
variables consisting of a few bytes stored in such a filesystem) to
perform 5 consecutive retune requests.

I am just thinking whether the original use case that forces a call to
retune prior to processing the RPMB request remains valid.

Independently of the fact that not doing so fixes the problem I was
working on - and with the information I have - I dont think RPMB is
generally used to store larger files (maybe you have more information
about the average use case? are you aware of systems using RPMB to store
binaries or images?)

I still I have to execute the test you shared some weeks ago. Bit of a
pain to NFS boot this system...will try to do it this week.

I am not sure what you are asking.

For some transfer modes, re-tuning is expected to deal with sampling
point drift over time, mainly due to temperature changes.  It is done
either periodically (tuning timer) or after a CRC error.

There is no reason to assume RPMB is immune from that.

Certainly re-tuning before switching to RPMB is not optimal for
performance, and we can leave that out, but a CRC error before
or during RPMB operations will *still* result in re-tuning
after switching back from RPMB.

In your case, re-tuning makes things worse, which is a bit of a
mystery.  Running the new re-tuning test would tell us whether
it makes things worse in general, or only for RPMB.

Other options are to boot with an initrd only, or after boot switch
to a RAM-based file system.

I was waiting for this, since it is good to try to get closer to a
root cause, but as you point out, the change is good for performance
also, so I will Ack it.

Thanks for doing that!  That seems to explain the mystery.

You could hack the test to get an idea of how many successful
iterations there are before getting an error.

For SDHCI, one difference between tuning and re-tuning is the
setting of bit-7 "Sampling Clock Select" of "Host Control 2 Register".
It is initially 0 and then set to 1 after the successful tuning.
Essentially, leaving it set to 1 is meant to speed up the re-tuning.
You could try setting it to zero instead, and see if that helps.
e.g.

diff --git a/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c b/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c
index c79f73459915..714d8cc39709 100644

Yes with that change, the re-tuning reliability test does pass.

Unfortunately I still see the error when looping on RPMB reads.

For instance with this test script
 $ while true; do rpmb_read m4hash; usleep 300; done

I can see the error triggering on the serial port after a minute or so.
[  151.682907] sdhci-arasan ff160000.mmc: __mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd: data error -84

Causing OP-TEE to panic since the RPMB read returns an error

if anything else springs to your mind I am happy to test of course - there are
so many tunnables in this subsystem that experience is this area has exponential
value (and I dont have much).

Would it make sense if re-tuning requests are rejected unless a minimum number
of jiffies have passed? should I try that as a change?

or maybe delay a bit longer the RPMB access after a retune request?

It seems re-tuning is not working properly, so ideally the
SoC vendor / driver implementer would provide a solution.

There is also mmc_doing_retune() which could be used to skip
tuning execution entirely in the case of re-tuning.

Makes sense to me too. I am copying Michal on the DL.

Not sure why you bring up performance.

SDHCI spec says:

"To enable inserting the re-tuning procedure during data transfers,
the data length per read/write command shall be limited up to 4MB."

Which implies re-tuning is needed at most every 4MB, so re-tuning
before RPMB switch and switching straight back, means re-tuning
should never be needed in RPMB.

[PATCH] mmc: rpmb: do not force a retune before RPMB switch

[Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz]

Requesting a retune before switching to the RPMB partition has been
observed to cause CRC errors on the RPMB reads (-EILSEQ).

Since RPMB reads can not be retried, the clients would be directly
affected by the errors.

This commit disables the request prior to RPMB switching while allowing
the pause interface to still request a retune before the pause for other
use cases.

This was verified with the sdhci-of-arasan driver (ZynqMP) configured
for HS200 using two separate eMMC cards (DG4064 and 064GB2). In both
cases, the error was easy to reproduce triggering every few tenths of
reads.

confused (u-boot, optee, ssl, tf-a..) yes, sorry about it, no differences.

Better to just drop mmc_retune_needed(host);

[PATCH] mmc: rpmb: do not force a retune before RPMB switch

[Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz]

Requesting a retune before switching to the RPMB partition has been
observed to cause CRC errors on the RPMB reads (-EILSEQ).

Since RPMB reads can not be retried, the clients would be directly
affected by the errors.

This commit disables the retune request prior to switching to the RPMB
partition: mmc_retune_pause() no longer triggers a retune before the
pause period begins.

This was verified with the sdhci-of-arasan driver (ZynqMP) configured
for HS200 using two separate eMMC cards (DG4064 and 064GB2). In both
cases, the error was easy to reproduce triggering every few tenths of
reads.

 v2:
    mmc_retune_pause() no longer can trigger a retune.
    Keeping Avri Altman Acked-by since they are functionally equivalent.
 v1:
    modify mmc_retune_pause to optionally trigger a retune.

This seems reasonable, but I would like to see some justification from
a performance point of view in the commit message too.

Moreover, please bump the version number of the patch at each
iteration and add a version summary of what has changed. That helps
the review process.

Kind regards
Uffe
