ipc: optimize semget/shmget/msgget for lots of keys · 0cfb6aee

ipc_findkey() used to scan all objects to look for the wanted key.  This
is slow when using a high number of keys.  This change adds an rhashtable
of kern_ipc_perm objects in ipc_ids, so that one lookup cease to be O(n).

This change gives a 865% improvement of benchmark reaim.jobs_per_min on a
56 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2695 v3 @ 2.30GHz with 256G memory [1]

Other (more micro) benchmark results, by the author: On an i5 laptop, the
following loop executed right after a reboot took, without and with this
change:

    for (int i = 0, k=0x424242; i < KEYS; ++i)
        semget(k++, 1, IPC_CREAT | 0600);

                 total       total          max single  max single

ipc/sem: play nicer with large nsops allocations · e4243b80

Davidlohr Bueso authored 7 years ago

Replacing semop()'s kmalloc for kvmalloc was originally proposed by
Manfred on the premise that it can be called for large (than order-1)
sizes.  For example, while Oracle recommends setting SEMOPM to a _minimum_
of 100, some distros[1] encourage the setting to be a factor of the amount
of db tasks (PROCESSES), which can get fishy for large systems (easily
going beyond 1000).

[1] An Example of Semaphore Settings
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Tuning_and_Optimizing_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_for_Oracle_9i_and_10g_Databases/sect-Oracle_9i_and_10g_Tuning_Guide-Setting_Semaphores-An_Example_of_Semaphore_Settings.html

So let's just convert this to kvmalloc, just like the rest of the
allocations we do in ipc.  While the fallback vmalloc obviously involves
more overhead, this by far the uncommon path, and it's better for the user
than just erroring out with kmalloc.

Similarly, replace the calls to get_seconds() with

ipc: Replace spin_unlock_wait() with lock/unlock pair · e0892e08

Paul E. McKenney authored 7 years ago


There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics,
and it appears that all callers could do just as well with a lock/unlock
pair.  This commit therefore replaces the spin_unlock_wait() call in
exit_sem() with spin_lock() followed immediately by spin_unlock().
This should be safe from a performance perspective because exit_sem()
is rarely invoked in production.

ipc: add missing container_of()s for randstruct · ade9f91b

Kees Cook authored 7 years ago

When building with the randstruct gcc plugin, the layout of the IPC
structs will be randomized, which requires any sub-structure accesses to
use container_of().  The proc display handlers were missing the needed
container_of()s since the iterator is passing in the top-level struct
kern_ipc_perm.

This would lead to crashes when running the "lsipc" program after the
system had IPC registered (e.g. after starting up Gnome):

  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
  ...
  RIP: 0010:shm_add_rss_swap.isra.1+0x13/0xa0

ipc: move atomic_set() to where it is needed · 3d3653f9

Kees Cook authored 7 years ago

Only after ipc_addid() has succeeded will refcounting be used, so move
initialization into ipc_addid() and remove from open-coded *_alloc()
routines.

ipc/msg.c: avoid ipc_rcu_putref for failed ipc_addid() · 51c23b7b

Manfred Spraul authored 7 years ago

Loosely based on a patch from Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>:
 - id and retval can be merged
 - if ipc_addid() fails, then use call_rcu() directly.

The difference is that call_rcu is used for failed ipc_addid() calls, to
continue to guaranteed an rcu delay for security_msg_queue_free().

ipc/shm.c: avoid ipc_rcu_putref for failed ipc_addid() · a2642f87

Manfred Spraul authored 7 years ago

Loosely based on a patch from Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>:
 - id and error can be merged
 - if operations before ipc_addid() fail, then use call_rcu() directly.

The difference is that call_rcu is used for failures after
security_shm_alloc(), to continue to guaranteed an rcu delay for
security_sem_free().

ipc/msg: avoid ipc_rcu_alloc() · 52f90890

Instead of using ipc_rcu_alloc() which only performs the refcount bump,
open code it.  This also allows for msg_queue structure layout to be
randomized in the future.

ipc/msg: do not use ipc_rcu_free() · 9ef5932f

Kees Cook authored 7 years ago

Avoid using ipc_rcu_free, since it just re-finds the original structure
pointer.  For the pre-list-init failure path, there is no RCU needed,
since it was just allocated.  It can be directly freed.
