[PATCH RFCv5 0/8] fix two bugs related to page_pool

Fri Dec 13 04:27:31 PST 2024


This version is mainly to see if using page_pool_item metadata
to keep track of all pages is the correct way to fix the dma
API misuse problem.

Note, it is not based on the latest net-next tree yet, but based
on the below commit in net-next:
commit da4fa00abe56 ("Merge branch 'mitigate-the-two-reallocations-issue-for-iptunnels'")

>From the below performance data, the overhead is avoided as much as possible
for time_bench_page_pool01_fast_path() and time_bench_page_pool02_ptr_ring,
and there is about 20ns overhead for time_bench_page_pool03_slow() for fixing
the bug.

Change log:
V5:
  1. Support unlimit inflight pages.
  2. Add some optimization to avoid the overhead of fixing bug.

V4:
  1. use scanning to do the unmapping
  2. spilt dma sync skipping into separate patch

V3:
  1. Target net-next tree instead of net tree.
  2. Narrow the rcu lock as the discussion in v2.
  3. Check the ummapping cnt against the inflight cnt.

V2:
  1. Add a item_full stat.
  2. Use container_of() for page_pool_to_pp().

Yunsheng Lin (8):
  page_pool: introduce page_pool_to_pp() API
  page_pool: fix timing for checking and disabling napi_local
  page_pool: fix IOMMU crash when driver has already unbound
  page_pool: support unlimited number of inflight pages
  page_pool: skip dma sync operation for inflight pages
  page_pool: use list instead of ptr_ring for ring cache
  page_pool: batch refilling pages to reduce atomic operation
  page_pool: use list instead of array for alloc cache
