[PATCH net-next 0/2 v1] netns: uevent performance tweaks

[PATCH net-next 0/2 v1] netns: uevent performance tweaks

[Christian Brauner]

Hey everyone,

This is v1 of "netns: uevent performance tweaks". Like Eric requested, I
did extensive testing that prove significant performance improvements
when using per-netns uevent sequence numbers with decoupled locks. The
results and test descriptions were added to the commit message of
[PATCH 2/2 v1] netns: isolate seqnums to use per-netns locks.

This series deals with a bunch of performance improvements when sending
out uevents that have been extensively discussed here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/10/592

- Only record uevent sockets from network namespaces owned by the
  initial user namespace in the global uevent socket list.
  Eric, this is the exact patch we agreed upon in
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/10/592.
  A very detailed rationale is present in the commit message for
  [PATCH 1/2] netns: restrict uevents
- Decouple the locking for network namespaces in the global uevent
  socket list from the locking for network namespaces not in the global
  uevent socket list.
  A very detailed rationale including performance test results is
  present in the commit message for
  [PATCH 2/2] netns: isolate seqnums to use per-netns locks

Thanks!
Christian

[PATCH net-next 1/2 v1] netns: restrict uevents

[Christian Brauner]

commit 07e98962fa77 ("kobject: Send hotplug events in all network namespaces")

enabled sending hotplug events into all network namespaces back in 2010.
Over time the set of uevents that get sent into all network namespaces has
shrunk a little. We have now reached the point where hotplug events for all
devices that carry a namespace tag are filtered according to that
namespace. Specifically, they are filtered whenever the namespace tag of
the kobject does not match the namespace tag of the netlink socket. One
example are network devices. Uevents for network devices only show up in
the network namespaces these devices are moved to or created in.

However, any uevent for a kobject that does not have a namespace tag
associated with it will not be filtered and we will broadcast it into all
network namespaces. This behavior stopped making sense when user namespaces
were introduced.

This patch restricts uevents to the initial user namespace for a couple of
reasons that have been extensively discusses on the mailing list [1].
- Thundering herd:
  Broadcasting uevents into all network namespaces introduces significant
  overhead.
  All processes that listen to uevents running in non-initial user
  namespaces will end up responding to uevents that will be meaningless to
  them. Mainly, because non-initial user namespaces cannot easily manage
  devices unless they have a privileged host-process helping them out. This
  means that there will be a thundering herd of activity when there
  shouldn't be any.
- Uevents from non-root users are already filtered in userspace:
  Uevents are filtered by userspace in a user namespace because the
  received uid != 0. Instead the uid associated with the event will be
  65534 == "nobody" because the global root uid is not mapped.
  This means we can safely and without introducing regressions modify the
  kernel to not send uevents into all network namespaces whose owning user
  namespace is not the initial user namespace because we know that
  userspace will ignore the message because of the uid anyway. I have
  a) verified that is is true for every udev implementation out there b)
  that this behavior has been present in all udev implementations from the
  very beginning.
- Removing needless overhead/Increasing performance:
  Currently, the uevent socket for each network namespace is added to the
  global variable uevent_sock_list. The list itself needs to be protected
  by a mutex. So everytime a uevent is generated the mutex is taken on the
  list. The mutex is held *from the creation of the uevent (memory
  allocation, string creation etc. until all uevent sockets have been
  handled*. This is aggravated by the fact that for each uevent socket that
  has listeners the mc_list must be walked as well which means we're
  talking O(n^2) here. Given that a standard Linux workload usually has
  quite a lot of network namespaces and - in the face of containers - a lot
  of user namespaces this quickly becomes a performance problem (see
  "Thundering herd" above). By just recording uevent sockets of network
  namespaces that are owned by the initial user namespace we significantly
  increase performance in this codepath.
- Injecting uevents:
  There's a valid argument that containers might be interested in receiving
  device events especially if they are delegated to them by a privileged
  userspace process. One prime example are SR-IOV enabled devices that are
  explicitly designed to be handed of to other users such as VMs or
  containers.
  This use-case can now be correctly handled since
  commit 692ec06d7c92 ("netns: send uevent messages"). This commit
  introduced the ability to send uevents from userspace. As such we can let
  a sufficiently privileged (CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of
  the network namespace of the netlink socket) userspace process make a
  decision what uevents should be sent. This removes the need to blindly
  broadcast uevents into all user namespaces and provides a performant and
  safe solution to this problem.
- Filtering logic:
  This patch filters by *owning user namespace of the network namespace a
  given task resides in* and not by user namespace of the task per se. This
  means if the user namespace of a given task is unshared but the network
  namespace is kept and is owned by the initial user namespace a listener
  that is opening the uevent socket in that network namespace can still
  listen to uevents.

[PATCH net-next 2/2 v1] netns: isolate seqnums to use per-netns locks

[Christian Brauner]

Now that it's possible to have a different set of uevents in different
network namespaces, per-network namespace uevent sequence numbers are
introduced. This increases performance as locking is now restricted to the
network namespace affected by the uevent rather than locking everything.
Testing revealed significant performance improvements. For details see
"Testing" below.

Since commit 692ec06 ("netns: send uevent messages") network namespaces not
owned by the intial user namespace can be sent uevents from a sufficiently
privileged userspace process.
In order to send a uevent into a network namespace not owned by the initial
user namespace we currently still need to take the *global mutex* that
locks the uevent socket list even though the list *only contains network
namespaces owned by the initial user namespace*. This needs to be done
because the uevent counter is a global variable. Taking the global lock is
performance sensitive since a user on the host can spawn a pool of n
process that each create their own new user and network namespaces and then
go on to inject uevents in parallel into the network namespace of all of
these processes. This can have a significant performance impact for the
host's udevd since it means that there can be a lot of delay between a
device being added and the corresponding uevent being sent out and
available for processing by udevd. It also means that each network
namespace not owned by the initial user namespace which userspace has sent
a uevent to will need to wait until the lock becomes available.

Implementation:
This patch gives each network namespace its own uevent sequence number.
Each network namespace not owned by the initial user namespace receives its
own mutex. The struct uevent_sock is opaque to callers outside of kobject.c
so the mutex *can* and *is* only ever accessed in lib/kobject.c. In this
file it is clearly documented which lock has to be taken. All network
namespaces owned by the initial user namespace will still share the same
lock since they are all served sequentially via the uevent socket list.
This decouples the locking and ensures that the host retrieves uevents as
fast as possible even if there are a lot of uevents injected into network
namespaces not owned by the initial user namespace.  In addition, each
network namespace not owned by the initial user namespace does not have to
wait on any other network namespace not sharing the same user namespace.

Testing:
Two 4.17-rc1 test kernels were compiled. One with per netns uevent seqnums
with decoupled locking and one without. To ensure that testing made sense
both kernels carried the patch to remove network namespaces not owned by
the initial user namespace from the uevent socket list.
Three tests were constructed. All of them showed significant performance
improvements with per-netns uevent sequence numbers and decoupled locking.

 # Testcase 1:
   Only Injecting Uevents into network namespaces not owned by the initial
   user namespace.
   - created 1000 new user namespace + network namespace pairs
   - opened a uevent listener in each of those namespace pairs
   - injected uevents into each of those network namespaces 10,000 times
     meaning 10,000,000 (10 million) uevents were injected. (The high
     number of uevent injections should get rid of a lot of jitter.)
     The injection was done by fork()ing 1000 uevent injectors in a simple
     for-loop to ensure that uevents were injected in parallel.
   - mean transaction time was calculated:
     - *without* uevent sequence number namespacing: 67 μs
     - *with* uevent sequence number namespacing:    55 μs
     - makes a difference of:                        12 μs
   - a t-test was performed on the two data vectors which revealed
     shows significant performance improvements:
     Welch Two Sample t-test
     data:  x1 and y1
     t = 405.16, df = 18883000, p-value < 2.2e-16
     alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 0
     95 percent confidence interval:
     12.14949 12.26761
     sample estimates:
     mean of x mean of y
     68.48594  56.27739

 # Testcase 2:
   Injecting Uevents into network namespaces not owned by the initial user
   namespace and network namespaces owned by the initial user namespace.
   - created 500 new user namespace + network namespace pairs
   - created 500 new network namespace pairs
   - opened a uevent listener in each of those namespace pairs
   - injected uevents into each of those network namespaces 10,000 times
     meaning 10,000,000 (10 million) uevents were injected. (The high
     number of uevent injections should get rid of a lot of jitter.)

     for-loop to ensure that uevents were injected in parallel.
   - mean transaction time was calculated:

     - *with* uevent sequence number namespacing:    514 μs
     - makes a difference of:                         58 μs
   - a t-test was performed on the two data vectors which revealed
     shows significant performance improvements:
     Welch Two Sample t-test
     data:  x2 and y2
     t = 38.685, df = 19682000, p-value < 2.2e-16

     sample estimates:
     mean of x mean of y
     572.9684  514.9211

 # Testcase 3:
   Created 500 new user namespace + network namespace pairs *without uevent
   listeners*
   - created 500 new network namespace pairs *without uevent listeners*
   - injected uevents into each of those network namespaces 10,000 times
