bpf: cpumap: switch to napi_skb_cache_get_bulk()

Now that cpumap uses GRO, which drops unused skb heads to the NAPI
cache, use napi_skb_cache_get_bulk() to try to reuse cached entries
and lower MM layer pressure. Always disable the BH before checking and
running the cpumap-pinned XDP prog and don't re-enable it in between
that and allocating an skb bulk, as we can access the NAPI caches only
from the BH context.
The better GRO aggregates packets, the less new skbs will be allocated.
If an aggregated skb contains 16 frags, this means 15 skbs were returned
to the cache, so next 15 skbs will be built without allocating anything.

The same trafficgen UDP GRO test now shows:

GRO off GRO on
threaded GRO 2.3 4 Mpps
thr bulk GRO 2.4 4.7 Mpps

diff +4 +17 %

Comparing to the baseline cpumap:

baseline 2.7 N/A Mpps
thr bulk GRO 2.4 4.7 Mpps
diff -11 +74 %

bpf: cpumap: reuse skb array instead of a linked list to chain skbs

cpumap still uses linked lists to store a list of skbs to pass to the
stack. Now that we don't use listified Rx in favor of
napi_gro_receive(), linked list is now an unneeded overhead.
Inside the polling loop, we already have an array of skbs. Let's reuse
it for skbs passed to cpumap (generic XDP) and keep there in case of
XDP_PASS when a program is installed to the map itself. Don't list
regular xdp_frames after converting them to skbs as well; store them
in the mentioned array (but *before* generic skbs as the latters have
lower priority) and call gro_receive_skb() for each array element after
they're done.

bpf: cpumap: switch to GRO from netif_receive_skb_list()

cpumap has its own BH context based on kthread. It has a sane batch
size of 8 frames per one cycle.
GRO can be used here on its own. Adjust cpumap calls to the upper stack
to use GRO API instead of netif_receive_skb_list() which processes skbs
by batches, but doesn't involve GRO layer at all.
In plenty of tests, GRO performs better than listed receiving even
given that it has to calculate full frame checksums on the CPU.
As GRO passes the skbs to the upper stack in the batches of
@gro_normal_batch, i.e. 8 by default, and skb->dev points to the
device where the frame comes from, it is enough to disable GRO
netdev feature on it to completely restore the original behaviour:
untouched frames will be being bulked and passed to the upper stack
by 8, as it was with netif_receive_skb_list().

xdp: get rid of xdp_frame::mem.id

Initially, xdp_frame::mem.id was used to search for the corresponding
&page_pool to return the page correctly.
However, after that struct page was extended to have a direct pointer
to its PP (netmem has it as well), further keeping of this field makes
no sense. xdp_return_frame_bulk() still used it to do a lookup, and
this leftover is now removed.
Remove xdp_frame::mem and replace it with ::mem_type, as only memory
type still matters and we need to know it to be able to free the frame
correctly.
As a cute side effect, we can now make every scalar field in &xdp_frame
of 4 byte width, speeding up accesses to them.

bpf, cpumap: Move xdp:xdp_cpumap_kthread tracepoint before rcv

cpumap takes RX processing out of softirq and onto a separate kthread.
Since the kthread needs to be scheduled in order to run (versus softirq
which does not), we can theoretically experience extra latency if the
system is under load and the scheduler is being unfair to us.

Moving the tracepoint to before passing the skb list up the stack allows
users to more accurately measure enqueue/dequeue latency introduced by
cpumap via xdp:xdp_cpumap_enqueue and xdp:xdp_cpumap_kthread tracepoints.

f9419f7bd7a5 ("bpf: cpumap add tracepoints") which added the tracepoints
states that the intent behind them was for general observability and for
a feedback loop to see if the queues are being overwhelmed. This change
does not mess with either of those use cases but rather adds a third
one.

The bpf_net_ctx_get_.*_flush_list() are used at the top of the function.
This means the variable is always assigned even if unused. By moving the
function to where it is used, it is possible to delay the initialisation
until it is unavoidable.
Not sure how much this gains in reality but by looking at bq_enqueue()
(in devmap.c) gcc pushes one register less to the stack. \o/.

net: Optimize xdp_do_flush() with bpf_net_context infos.

Every NIC driver utilizing XDP should invoke xdp_do_flush() after
processing all packages. With the introduction of the bpf_net_context
logic the flush lists (for dev, CPU-map and xsk) are lazy initialized
only if used. However xdp_do_flush() tries to flush all three of them so
all three lists are always initialized and the likely empty lists are
"iterated".
Without the usage of XDP but with CONFIG_DEBUG_NET the lists are also
initialized due to xdp_do_check_flushed().

Jakub suggest to utilize the hints in bpf_net_context and avoid invoking
the flush function. This will also avoiding initializing the lists which
are otherwise unused.

Introduce bpf_net_ctx_get_all_used_flush_lists() to return the
individual list if not-empty. Use the logic in xdp_do_flush() and
xdp_do_check_flushed(). Remove the not needed .*_check_flush().

net: Reference bpf_redirect_info via task_struct on PREEMPT_RT.

The XDP redirect process is two staged:
- bpf_prog_run_xdp() is invoked to run a eBPF program which inspects the
packet and makes decisions. While doing that, the per-CPU variable
bpf_redirect_info is used.

- Afterwards xdp_do_redirect() is invoked and accesses bpf_redirect_info
and it may also access other per-CPU variables like xskmap_flush_list.

At the very end of the NAPI callback, xdp_do_flush() is invoked which
does not access bpf_redirect_info but will touch the individual per-CPU
lists.

The per-CPU variables are only used in the NAPI callback hence disabling
bottom halves is the only protection mechanism. Users from preemptible
context (like cpu_map_kthread_run()) explicitly disable bottom halves
for protections reasons.
Without locking in local_bh_disable() on PREEMPT_RT this data structure
requires explicit locking.

PREEMPT_RT has forced-threaded interrupts enabled and every
NAPI-callback runs in a thread. If each thread has its own data
structure then locking can be avoided.

Create a struct bpf_net_context which contains struct bpf_redirect_info.
Define the variable on stack, use bpf_net_ctx_set() to save a pointer to
it, bpf_net_ctx_clear() removes it again.
The bpf_net_ctx_set() may nest. For instance a function can be used from
within NET_RX_SOFTIRQ/ net_rx_action which uses bpf_net_ctx_set() and
NET_TX_SOFTIRQ which does not. Therefore only the first invocations
updates the pointer.
Use bpf_net_ctx_get_ri() as a wrapper to retrieve the current struct
bpf_redirect_info. The returned data structure is zero initialized to
ensure nothing is leaked from stack. This is done on first usage of the
struct. bpf_net_ctx_set() sets bpf_redirect_info::kern_flags to 0 to
note that initialisation is required. First invocation of
bpf_net_ctx_get_ri() will memset() the data structure and update
bpf_redirect_info::kern_flags.
bpf_redirect_info::nh is excluded from memset because it is only used
once BPF_F_NEIGH is set which also sets the nh member. The kern_flags is
moved past nh to exclude it from memset.

The pointer to bpf_net_context is saved task's task_struct. Using
always the bpf_net_context approach has the advantage that there is
almost zero differences between PREEMPT_RT and non-PREEMPT_RT builds.

random values being returned as the xdp_md->rx_queue_index value for XDP
programs running in a cpumap.

This means we're basically returning the contents of the uninitialised
memory, which is bad. Fix this by zero-initialising the rxq data
structure before running the XDP program.

bpf, cpumap: Use queue_rcu_work() to remove unnecessary rcu_barrier()

As for now __cpu_map_entry_replace() uses call_rcu() to wait for the
inflight xdp program to exit the RCU read critical section, and then
launch kworker cpu_map_kthread_stop() to call kthread_stop() to flush
all pending xdp frames or skbs.

But it is unnecessary to use rcu_barrier() in cpu_map_kthread_stop() to
wait for the completion of __cpu_map_entry_free(), because rcu_barrier()
will wait for all pending RCU callbacks and cpu_map_kthread_stop() only
needs to wait for the completion of a specific __cpu_map_entry_free().

So use queue_rcu_work() to replace call_rcu(), schedule_work() and
rcu_barrier(). queue_rcu_work() will queue a __cpu_map_entry_free()
kworker after a RCU grace period. Because __cpu_map_entry_free() is
running in a kworker context, so it is OK to do all of these freeing
procedures include kthread_stop() in it.

After the update, there is no need to do reference-counting for
bpf_cpu_map_entry, because bpf_cpu_map_entry is freed directly in
__cpu_map_entry_free(), so just remove it.

The root cause is the same as commit 436901649731 ("bpf: cpumap: Fix memory
leak in cpu_map_update_elem"). The kthread is stopped prematurely by
kthread_stop() in cpu_map_kthread_stop(), and kthread() doesn't call
cpu_map_kthread_run() at all but XDP program has already queued some
frames or skbs into ptr_ring. So when __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() checks
the ptr_ring, it will find it was not emptied and report a warning.

An alternative fix is to use __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() to drop these
pending frames or skbs when kthread_stop() returns -EINTR, but it may
confuse the user, because these frames or skbs have been handled
correctly by XDP program. So instead of dropping these frames or skbs,
just make sure the per-cpu kthread is running before
__cpu_map_entry_alloc() returns.

After apply the fix, the error handle for kthread_stop() will be
unnecessary because it will always return 0, so just remove it.

In the cpu_map_update_elem flow, when kthread_stop is called before
calling the threadfn of rcpu->kthread, since the KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP bit
of kthread has been set by kthread_stop, the threadfn of rcpu->kthread
will never be executed, and rcpu->refcnt will never be 0, which will
lead to the allocated rcpu, rcpu->queue and rcpu->queue->queue cannot be
released.

Calling kthread_stop before executing kthread's threadfn will return
-EINTR. We can complete the release of memory resources in this state.

bpf: return long from bpf_map_ops funcs

This patch changes the return types of bpf_map_ops functions to long, where
previously int was returned. Using long allows for bpf programs to maintain
the sign bit in the absence of sign extension during situations where
inlined bpf helper funcs make calls to the bpf_map_ops funcs and a negative
error is returned.

The definitions of the helper funcs are generated from comments in the bpf
uapi header at `include/uapi/linux/bpf.h`. The return type of these
helpers was previously changed from int to long in commit bdb7b79b4ce8. For
any case where one of the map helpers call the bpf_map_ops funcs that are
still returning 32-bit int, a compiler might not include sign extension
instructions to properly convert the 32-bit negative value a 64-bit
negative value.

For example:
bpf assembly excerpt of an inlined helper calling a kernel function and
checking for a specific error:

; err = bpf_map_update_elem(&mymap, &key, &val, BPF_NOEXIST);
...
46: call 0xffffffffe103291c ; htab_map_update_elem
; if (err && err != -EEXIST) {
4b: cmp $0xffffffffffffffef,%rax ; cmp -EEXIST,%rax

kernel function assembly excerpt of return value from
`htab_map_update_elem` returning 32-bit int:

movl $0xffffffef, %r9d
...
movl %r9d, %eax

...results in the comparison:
cmp $0xffffffffffffffef, $0x00000000ffffffef

bpf: cpumap memory usage

A new helper is introduced to calculate cpumap memory usage. The size of
cpu_entries can be dynamically changed when we update or delete a cpumap
element, but this patch doesn't include the memory size of cpu_entry
yet. We can dynamically calculate the memory usage when we alloc or free
a cpu_entry, but it will take extra runtime overhead, so let just put it
aside currently. Note that the size of different cpu_entry may be
different as well.

The result as follows,
- before
48: cpumap name count_map flags 0x4
key 4B value 4B max_entries 64 memlock 4096B

- after
48: cpumap name count_map flags 0x4
key 4B value 4B max_entries 64 memlock 832B

net: skbuff: drop the word head from skb cache

skbuff_head_cache is misnamed (perhaps for historical reasons?)
because it does not hold heads. Head is the buffer which skb->data
points to, and also where shinfo lives. struct sk_buff is a metadata
structure, not the head.

Eric recently added skb_small_head_cache (which allocates actual
head buffers), let that serve as an excuse to finally clean this up :)

Leave the user-space visible name intact, it could possibly be uAPI.

For queueing packets in XDP we want to add a new redirect map type with
support for 64-bit indexes. To prepare fore this, expand the width of the
'key' argument to the bpf_redirect_map() helper. Since BPF registers are
always 64-bit, this should be safe to do after the fact.
