It increments pages_state_hold_cnt on allocation, but IIUC doesn't mark skbs for recycle? Then, they all will be put down via page_pool_iov_put_many() bypassing page_pool_return_page() and friends. That will call netdev_free_dmabuf(), which doesn't bump pages_state_release_cnt.

I'm not familiar with static key code generation, but I think the compiler will bloat users with fat chunks of code in unlikely paths. And I'd assume it creates an array of all uses, which it'll be walked on enabling/disabling the branch. > +} > + > +static inline struct page_pool_iov *page_to_page_pool_iov(struct page *page) > +{ > + if (page_is_page_pool_iov(page)) > + return (struct page_pool_iov *)((unsigned long)page & ~PP_IOV); > + > + DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE(true); > + return NULL; > +} > + > /** > * page_pool_dev_alloc_pages() - allocate a page. > * @pool: pool from which to allocate

In the RFC I was not marking the skbs as skb_mark_for_recycle(), so the unreffing path wasn't as expected. In this iteration, that should be completely fixed. I suspect since I just posted this you're actually referring to the issue tested on the last RFC? Correct me if wrong. In this iteration, the reffing story: - memory provider allocs ppiov and returns it to the page pool with ppiov->refcount == 1. - The page_pool gives the page to the driver. The driver may obtain/release references with page_pool_page_[get|put]_many(), but the driver is likely not doing that unless it's doing its own page recycling. - The net stack obtains references via skb_frag_ref() -> page_pool_page_get_many() - The net stack drops references via skb_frag_unref() -> napi_pp_put_page() -> page_pool_return_page() and friends. Thus, the issue where the unref path was skipping page_pool_return_page() and friends should be resolved in this iteration, let me know if you think otherwise, but I think this was an issue limited to the last RFC. > > + > > +/*** "Dmabuf devmem memory provider" ***/ > > + > > +static int mp_dmabuf_devmem_init(struct page_pool *pool) > > +{ > > + struct netdev_dmabuf_binding *binding = pool->mp_priv; > > + > > + if (!binding) > > + return -EINVAL; > > + > > + if (!(pool->p.flags & PP_FLAG_DMA_MAP)) > > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + > > + if (pool->p.flags & PP_FLAG_DMA_SYNC_DEV) > > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + > > + netdev_dmabuf_binding_get(binding); > > + return 0; > > +} > > + > > +static struct page *mp_dmabuf_devmem_alloc_pages(struct page_pool *pool, > > + gfp_t gfp) > > +{ > > + struct netdev_dmabuf_binding *binding = pool->mp_priv; > > + struct page_pool_iov *ppiov; > > + > > + ppiov = netdev_alloc_dmabuf(binding); > > + if (!ppiov) > > + return NULL; > > + > > + ppiov->pp = pool; > > + pool->pages_state_hold_cnt++; > > + trace_page_pool_state_hold(pool, (struct page *)ppiov, > > + pool->pages_state_hold_cnt); > > + return (struct page *)((unsigned long)ppiov | PP_IOV); > > +} > > + > > +static void mp_dmabuf_devmem_destroy(struct page_pool *pool) > > +{ > > + struct netdev_dmabuf_binding *binding = pool->mp_priv; > > + > > + netdev_dmabuf_binding_put(binding); > > +} > > + > > +static bool mp_dmabuf_devmem_release_page(struct page_pool *pool, > > + struct page *page) > > +{ > > + struct page_pool_iov *ppiov; > > + > > + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!page_is_page_pool_iov(page))) > > + return false; > > + > > + ppiov = page_to_page_pool_iov(page); > > + page_pool_iov_put_many(ppiov, 1); > > + /* We don't want the page pool put_page()ing our page_pool_iovs. */ > > + return false; > > +} > > + > > +const struct memory_provider_ops dmabuf_devmem_ops = { > > + .init = mp_dmabuf_devmem_init, > > + .destroy = mp_dmabuf_devmem_destroy, > > + .alloc_pages = mp_dmabuf_devmem_alloc_pages, > > + .release_page = mp_dmabuf_devmem_release_page, > > +}; > > +EXPORT_SYMBOL(dmabuf_devmem_ops); > > -- > Pavel Begunkov

Ok, that makes sense, but even if passed via an rx queue I'd at least hope it keeping abstract provider parameters, e.g. ops, but not hard coded with devmem specific code. It might even be better done with a helper like create_page_pool_from_queue(), unless there is some deeper interaction b/w pp and rx queues is predicted. >>> + >>> if (pool->mp_ops) { >>> err = pool->mp_ops->init(pool); >>> if (err) { >>> @@ -1020,3 +1033,77 @@ void page_pool_update_nid(struct page_pool *pool, int new_nid) >>> } >>> } >>> EXPORT_SYMBOL(page_pool_update_nid); >>> + >>> +void __page_pool_iov_free(struct page_pool_iov *ppiov) >>> +{ >>> + if (WARN_ON(ppiov->pp->mp_ops != &dmabuf_devmem_ops)) >>> + return; >>> + >>> + netdev_free_dmabuf(ppiov); >>> +} >>> +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(__page_pool_iov_free); >> >> I didn't look too deep but I don't think I immediately follow >> the pp refcounting.

Then page_pool_iov_put_many() should and supposedly would never be called by non devmap code because all puts must circle back into ->release_page. Why adding it to into page_pool_page_put_many()? @@ -731,6 +731,29 @@ __page_pool_put_page(struct page_pool *pool, struct page *page, + if (page_is_page_pool_iov(page)) { ... + page_pool_page_put_many(page, 1); + return NULL; + } Well, I'm looking at this new branch from Patch 10, it can put the buffer, but what if we race at it's actually the final put? Looks like nobody is going to to bump up pages_state_release_cnt If you remove the branch, let it fall into ->release and rely on refcounting there, then the callback could also fix up release_cnt or ask pp to do it, like in the patch I linked above

Prematurely releasing ppiov and not having them be candidates for recycling shows me a 4-5x degradation in performance. What I could do here is detect that the refcount was dropped to 0 and fix up the stats in that case.

The concept is to only recycle a buffer (i.e. make it available for allocation) when its refs drop to zero, which is IMHO the only way it can work, and IIUC what this patchset is doing. That's also I suggest to do, but through a slightly different path. Let's say at some moment there are 2 refs (e.g. 1 for an skb and 1 for userspace/xarray). Say it first puts the skb: napi_pp_put_page() -> page_pool_return_page() -> mp_ops->release_page() -> need_to_free = put_buf() // not last ref, need_to_free==false, // don't recycle, don't increase release_cnt Then you put the last ref: page_pool_iov_put_many() -> page_pool_return_page() -> mp_ops->release_page() -> need_to_free = put_buf() // last ref, need_to_free==true, // recycle and release_cnt++ And that last put can even be recycled right into the pp / ptr_ring, in which case it doesn't need to touch release_cnt. Does it make sense? I don't see where 4-5x degradation would come from > What I could do here is detect that the refcount was dropped to 0 and > fix up the stats in that case.

We set the LSB on page_pool_iov* and cast it to page* only to avoid the churn of renaming page* to page_pool_iov* in the page_pool and all the net drivers using it. Is that not a reasonable compromise in your opinion? Since the LSB is set on the resulting page pointers, they are not actually usuable as pages, and are never passed to mm APIs per your requirement.

There were two asks, the one you did was to never pass this non-struct page memory to the mm, which is great. The other was to not mistype things, and don't type something as struct page when it is, in fact, not. I fear what you've done is make it so only one driver calls these special functions and left the other drivers passing the struct page directly to the mm and sort of obfuscating why it is OK based on this netdev knowledge of not enabling/using the static branch in the other cases. Perhaps you can simply avoid this by arranging for this driver to also exclusively use some special type to indicate the dual nature of the pointer and leave the other drivers as using the struct page version.

The resulting pointers are not useable as page pointers at all. In order to use the resulting pointers, the driver _must_ use the special functions that first clear the LSB. It is impossible for the driver to 'accidentally' use the resulting page pointers with the LSB set - the kernel would just crash trying to dereference such a pointer. The way it works currently is that drivers that support devmem TCP will declare that support to the net stack, and use the special functions that clear the LSB and cast the struct back to page_pool_iov. The drivers that don't support devmem TCP will not declare support and will get pages allocated from the mm stack from the page_pool and use them as pages normally. > Perhaps you can simply avoid this by arranging for this driver to also > exclusively use some special type to indicate the dual nature of the > pointer and leave the other drivers as using the struct page version. > This is certainly possible, but it requires us to rename all the page pointers in the page_pool to the new type, and requires the driver adding devmem TCP support to rename all the page* pointer instances to the new type. It's possible but it introduces lots of code churn. Is the LSB + cast not a reasonable compromise here? I feel like the trick of setting the least significant bit on a pointer to indicate it's something else has a fair amount of precedent in the kernel. -- Thanks, Mina

Linus himself has complained about exactly this before, and written a cleanup: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20221108194139.57604-1-torvalds@linux-foundation.org/ If you mangle a pointer *so it is no longer a pointer* then give it a proper opaque type so the compiler can check everything statically and require that the necessary converters are called in all cases. You call it churn, I call it future maintainability. :( No objection to using the LSB, just properly type a LSB mangled pointer so everyone knows what is going on and don't call it MM's struct page *. I would say this is important here because it is a large driver facing API surface. Jason

I figure I can start by implementing a no-op abstraction to page*: typedef struct page netmem_t and replace the page* in the following places with netmem_t*: 1. page_pool API (not internals) 2. drivers using the page_pool. 3. skb_frag_t. I think that change needs to be a separate series by itself. Then the devmem patches would on top of that change netmem_t such that it can be a union between struct page and page_pool_iov and add the special handling of page_pool_iov. Does this sound reasonable? -- Thanks, Mina

From there, addr can default to `struct page *`. If LSB is set, strip it and return `struct page_pool_iov *` or `struct buffer_pool *`

What you're saying makes sense, and I'm no longer sure why I was seeing a perf degradation without '[net-next v1 10/16] page_pool: don't release iov on elevanted refcount'. However, even though what you're saying is technically correct, AFAIU it's actually semantically wrong. When a page is released by the page_pool, we should call page_pool_clear_pp_info() and completely disconnect the page from the pool. If we call release_page() on a page and then the page pool sees it again in page_pool_return_page(), I think that is considered a bug. In fact I think what you're proposing is as a result of a bug because we don't call a page_pool_clear_pp_info() equivalent on releasing ppiov. However, I'm reasonably confident I figured out the right thing to do here. The page_pool uses page->pp_frag_count for its refcounting. pp_frag_count is a misnomer, it's being renamed to pp_ref_count in Liang's series[1]). In this series I used a get_page/put_page equivalent for refcounting. Once I transitioned to using pp_[frag|ref]_count for refcounting inside the page_pool, the issue went away, and I no longer need the patch 'page_pool: don't release iov on elevanted refcount'. There is an additional upside, since pages and ppiovs are both being refcounted using pp_[frag|ref]_count, we get some unified handling for ppiov and we reduce the checks around ppiov. This should be fixed properly in the next series. I still need to do some work (~1 week) before I upload the next version as there is a new requirement from MM that we transition to a new type and not re-use page*, but I uploaded my changes github with the refcounting issues resolved in case they're useful to you.

You're adding a new feature the semantics of which is already different from what is in there, you can extend it any way as long as it makes sense and agreed on. IMHO, it does. But well, if there is a better solution I'm all for it. > In fact I think what you're proposing is as a result of a bug because > we don't call a page_pool_clear_pp_info() equivalent on releasing > ppiov. I don't get it, what bug? page_pool_clear_pp_info() is not called for ppiov because it doesn't make sense to call it for ppiov, there is no reason to clear ppiov->pp, nor there is any pp_magic. > However, I'm reasonably confident I figured out the right thing to do > here.

Lovely, I'll take a look later!
