It's based on linux 6.8, and available at: https://github.com/DataTravelGuide/linux (1) What is cbd: As shared memory is supported in CXL3.0 spec, we can transfer data via CXL shared memory. CBD means CXL block device, it use CXL shared memory to transfer command and data to access block device in different host, as shown below: ┌───────────────────────────────┐ ┌────────────────────────────────────┐ │ node-1 │ │ node-2 │ ├───────────────────────────────┤ ├────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ ┌───────┤ ├─────────┐ │ │ │ cbd0 │ │ backend0├──────────────────┐ │ │ ├───────┤ ├─────────┤ │ │ │ │ pmem0 │ │ pmem0 │ ▼ │ │ ┌───────┴───────┤ ├─────────┴────┐ ┌───────────────┤ │ │ cxl driver │ │ cxl driver │ │ /dev/sda │ └───────────────┴────────┬──────┘ └─────┬────────┴─────┴───────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ CXL CXL │ └────────────────┐ ┌───────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ ┌───┴───────────────┴────---------------─┐ │ shared memory device(cbd transport) │ └──────────────────────---------------───┘ any read/write to cbd0 on node-1 will be transferred to node-2 /dev/sda. It works similar with nbd (network block device), but it transfer data via CXL shared memory rather than network. (2) Layout of transport: ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ cbd transport │ ├────────────────────┬───────────────────────┬───────────────────────┬──────────────────────┬───────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ hosts │ backends │ blkdevs │ channels │ │ cbd transport info ├────┬────┬────┬────────┼────┬────┬────┬────────┼────┬────┬────┬───────┼───────┬───────┬───────┬───────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ ... │ └────────────────────┴────┴────┴────┴────────┴────┴────┴────┴────────┴────┴────┴────┴───────┴───┬───┴───────┴───────┴───────────┘ │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ ▼ ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ channel │ ├────────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────┤ │ channel meta │ channel data │ └─────────┬──────────┴────────────────────────────────-─────┘ │ │ │ ▼ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ channel meta │ ├───────────┬──────────────┬───────────────────────────────┤ │ meta ctrl │ comp ring │ cmd ring │ └───────────┴──────────────┴───────────────────────────────┘ The shared memory is divided into five regions: a) Transport_info: Information about the overall transport, including the layout of the transport. b) Hosts: Each host wishing to utilize this transport needs to register its own information within a host entry in this region. c) Backends: Starting a backend on a host requires filling in information in a backend entry within this region. d) Blkdevs: Once a backend is established, it can be mapped to any associated host. The information about the blkdevs is then filled into the blkdevs region. e) Channels: This is the actual data communication area, where communication between blkdev and backend occurs. Each queue of a block device uses a channel, and each backend has a corresponding handler interacting with this queue. f) Channel: Channel is further divided into meta and data regions. The meta region includes cmd rings and comp rings. The blkdev converts upper-layer requests into cbd_se and fills them into the cmd ring. The handler accepts the cbd_se from the cmd ring and sends them to the local actual block device of the backend (e.g., sda). After completion, the results are formed into cbd_ce and filled into the comp ring. The blkdev then receives the cbd_ce and returns the results to the upper-layer IO sender. Currently, the number of entries in each region and the channel size are both set to default values. In the future, they will be made configurable. (3) Naming of CBD: Actually it is not strictly depends on CXL, any shared memory can be used for cbd, but I did not find out a better name, maybe smxbd(shared memory transport block device)? I choose CBD as it sounds more concise and elegant. Any suggestion? (4) dax is not supported yet: same with famfs, dax device is not supported here, because dax device does not support dev_dax_iomap so far. Once dev_dax_iomap is supported, CBD can easily support DAX mode. (5) How do blkdev and backend interact through the channel? a) For reader side, before reading the data, if the data in this channel may be modified by the other party, then I need to flush the cache before reading to ensure that I get the latest data. For example, the blkdev needs to flush the cache before obtaining compr_head because compr_head will be updated by the backend handler. b) For writter side, if the written information will be read by others, then after writing, I need to flush the cache to let the other party see it immediately. For example, after blkdev submits cbd_se, it needs to update cmd_head to let the handler have a new cbd_se. Therefore, after updating cmd_head, I need to flush the cache to let the backend see it. (6) race between management operations: There may be a race condition, for example: if we use backend-start on different nodes at the same time, it's possible to allocate the same backend ID. This issue should be handled by the upper-layer manager, ensuring that all management operations are serialized, such as acquiring a distributed lock. (7) What's Next? This is an first version of CBD, and there is still much work to be done, such as: how to recover a backend service when a backend node fails? How to gracefully stop associated blkdev when a backend service cannot be recovered? How to clear dead information within the transport layer? For non-volatile memory transport, it may be considered to allocate a new area as a Write-Ahead Log (WAL). (8) testing with qemu: We can use two QEMU virtual machines to test CBD by sharing a CXLMemDev: a) Start two QEMU virtual machines, sharing a CXLMemDev. root@qemu-2:~# cxl list [ { "memdev":"mem0", "pmem_size":536870912, "serial":0, "host":"0000:0d:00.0" } ] root@qemu-1:~# cxl list [ { "memdev":"mem0", "pmem_size":536870912, "serial":0, "host":"0000:0d:00.0" } ] b) Register a CBD transport on node-1 and add a backend, specifying the path as /dev/ram0p1. root@qemu-1:~# cxl create-region -m mem0 -d decoder0.0 -t pmem { "region":"region0", "resource":"0x1890000000", "size":"512.00 MiB (536.87 MB)", "type":"pmem", "interleave_ways":1, "interleave_granularity":256, "decode_state":"commit", "mappings":[ { "position":0, "memdev":"mem0", "decoder":"decoder2.0" } ] } cxl region: cmd_create_region: created 1 region root@qemu-1:~# ndctl create-namespace -r region0 -m fsdax --map dev -t pmem { "dev":"namespace0.0", "mode":"fsdax", "map":"dev", "size":"502.00 MiB (526.39 MB)", "uuid":"618e9627-4345-4046-ba46-becf430a1464", "sector_size":512, "align":2097152, "blockdev":"pmem0" } root@qemu-1:~# echo "path=/dev/pmem0,hostname=node-1,force=1,format=1" > /sys/bus/cbd/transport_register root@qemu-1:~# echo "op=backend-start,path=/dev/ram0p1" > /sys/bus/cbd/devices/transport0/adm c) Register a CBD transport on node-2 and add a blkdev, specifying the backend ID as the backend on node-1. root@qemu-2:~# cxl create-region -m mem0 -d decoder0.0 -t pmem { "region":"region0", "resource":"0x390000000", "size":"512.00 MiB (536.87 MB)", "type":"pmem", "interleave_ways":1, "interleave_granularity":256, "decode_state":"commit", "mappings":[ { "position":0, "memdev":"mem0", "decoder":"decoder2.0" } ] } cxl region: cmd_create_region: created 1 region root@qemu-2:~# ndctl create-namespace -r region0 -m fsdax --map dev -t pmem -b 0 { "dev":"namespace0.0", "mode":"fsdax", "map":"dev", "size":"502.00 MiB (526.39 MB)", "uuid":"a7fae1a5-2cba-46d7-83a2-20a76d736848", "sector_size":512, "align":2097152, "blockdev":"pmem0" } root@qemu-2:~# echo "path=/dev/pmem0,hostname=node-2" > /sys/bus/cbd/transport_register root@qemu-2:~# echo "op=dev-start,backend_id=0,queues=1" > /sys/bus/cbd/devices/transport0/adm d) On node-2, you will get a /dev/cbd0, and all reads and writes to cbd0 will actually read from and write to /dev/ram0p1 on node-1. root@qemu-2:~# mkfs.xfs -f /dev/cbd0 meta-data=/dev/cbd0 isize=512 agcount=4, agsize=655360 blks = sectsz=4096 attr=2, projid32bit=1 = crc=1 finobt=1, sparse=1, rmapbt=0 = reflink=1 bigtime=0 inobtcount=0 data = bsize=4096 blocks=2621440, imaxpct=25 = sunit=0 swidth=0 blks naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0, ftype=1 log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=2560, version=2 = sectsz=4096 sunit=1 blks, lazy-count=1 realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0 Thanx Dongsheng Yang (7): block: Init for CBD(CXL Block Device) cbd: introduce cbd_transport cbd: introduce cbd_channel cbd: introduce cbd_host cbd: introuce cbd_backend cbd: introduce cbd_blkdev cbd: add related sysfs files in transport register drivers/block/Kconfig | 2 + drivers/block/Makefile | 2 + drivers/block/cbd/Kconfig | 4 + drivers/block/cbd/Makefile | 3 + drivers/block/cbd/cbd_backend.c | 254 +++++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_blkdev.c | 375 +++++++++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_channel.c | 179 +++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_handler.c | 261 +++++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_host.c | 123 +++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_internal.h | 830 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_main.c | 230 ++++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_queue.c | 621 ++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/block/cbd/cbd_transport.c | 845 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 13 files changed, 3729 insertions(+) create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/Kconfig create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/Makefile create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_backend.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_blkdev.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_channel.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_handler.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_host.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_internal.h create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_main.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_queue.c create mode 100644 drivers/block/cbd/cbd_transport.c
