[PATCH v9 0/7] virtio pmem driver

Hi Dan,

 Proposing the patch series to be merged via nvdimm tree
 as kindly agreed by you. We have ack/review on XFS, EXT4 &
 VIRTIO patches. 

 Incorporated all the changes suggested in v8. This version
 added a new patch 4 for dax for device mapper change and some
 minor style changes in patch 2. Kept all the reviews. Request
 to please merge the series.

 ---

 This patch series has implementation for "virtio pmem". 
 "virtio pmem" is fake persistent memory(nvdimm) in guest 
 which allows to bypass the guest page cache. This also
 implements a VIRTIO based asynchronous flush mechanism.  
 
 Sharing guest kernel driver in this patchset with the 
 changes suggested in v4. Tested with Qemu side device 
 emulation [6] for virtio-pmem. Documented the impact of
 possible page cache side channel attacks with suggested
 countermeasures.

 Details of project idea for 'virtio pmem' flushing interface 
 is shared [3] & [4].

 Implementation is divided into two parts:
 New virtio pmem guest driver and qemu code changes for new 
 virtio pmem paravirtualized device.

1. Guest virtio-pmem kernel driver
---------------------------------
   - Reads persistent memory range from paravirt device and 
     registers with 'nvdimm_bus'.  
   - 'nvdimm/pmem' driver uses this information to allocate 
     persistent memory region and setup filesystem operations 
     to the allocated memory. 
   - virtio pmem driver implements asynchronous flushing 
     interface to flush from guest to host.

2. Qemu virtio-pmem device
---------------------------------
   - Creates virtio pmem device and exposes a memory range to 
     KVM guest. 
   - At host side this is file backed memory which acts as 
     persistent memory. 
   - Qemu side flush uses aio thread pool API's and virtio 
     for asynchronous guest multi request handling. 

   David Hildenbrand CCed also posted a modified version[7] of 
   qemu virtio-pmem code based on updated Qemu memory device API. 

 Virtio-pmem security implications and countermeasures:
 -----------------------------------------------------

 In previous posting of kernel driver, there was discussion [9]
 on possible implications of page cache side channel attacks with 
 virtio pmem. After thorough analysis of details of known side 
 channel attacks, below are the suggestions:

 - Depends entirely on how host backing image file is mapped 
   into guest address space. 

 - virtio-pmem device emulation, by default shared mapping is used
   to map host backing file. It is recommended to use separate
   backing file at host side for every guest. This will prevent
   any possibility of executing common code from multiple guests
   and any chance of inferring guest local data based based on 
   execution time.

 - If backing file is required to be shared among multiple guests 
   it is recommended to don't support host page cache eviction 
   commands from the guest driver. This will avoid any possibility
   of inferring guest local data or host data from another guest. 

 - Proposed device specification [8] for virtio-pmem device with 
   details of possible security implications and suggested 
   countermeasures for device emulation.

 Virtio-pmem errors handling:
 ----------------------------------------
  Checked behaviour of virtio-pmem for below types of errors
  Need suggestions on expected behaviour for handling these errors?

  - Hardware Errors: Uncorrectable recoverable Errors: 
  a] virtio-pmem: 
    - As per current logic if error page belongs to Qemu process, 
      host MCE handler isolates(hwpoison) that page and send SIGBUS. 
      Qemu SIGBUS handler injects exception to KVM guest. 
    - KVM guest then isolates the page and send SIGBUS to guest 
      userspace process which has mapped the page. 
  
  b] Existing implementation for ACPI pmem driver: 
    - Handles such errors with MCE notifier and creates a list 
      of bad blocks. Read/direct access DAX operation return EIO 
      if accessed memory page fall in bad block list.
    - It also starts backgound scrubbing.  
    - Similar functionality can be reused in virtio-pmem with MCE 
      notifier but without scrubbing(no ACPI/ARS)? Need inputs to 
      confirm if this behaviour is ok or needs any change?

Changes from PATCH v8: [1] 
 - Set device mapper synchronous if all target devices support - Dan
 - Move virtio_pmem.h to nvdimm directory  - Dan
 - Style, indentation & better error messages in patch 2 - DavidH
 - Added MST's ack in patch 2.

Changes from PATCH v6: 
 - Corrected comment format in patch 5 & patch 6. [Dave]
 - Changed variable declaration indentation in patch 6 [Darrick]
 - Add Reviewed-by tag by 'Jan Kara' in patch 4 & patch 5

Changes from PATCH v4:
- Factor out MAP_SYNC supported functionality to a common helper
				[Dave, Darrick, Jan]

- 0-day build test for build dependency on libnvdimm 

 Changes suggested by - [Dan Williams]
- Split the driver into two parts virtio & pmem  
- Move queuing of async block request to block layer

- Rename nvdimm_flush() to generic_nvdimm_flush()
- Use 'nd_region->provider_data' for long dereferencing
- Remove virtio_pmem_freeze/restore functions
- Remove BSD license text with SPDX license text

- Add might_sleep() in virtio_pmem_flush - [Luiz]

[PATCH v9 1/7] libnvdimm: nd_region flush callback support

This patch adds functionality to perform flush from guest
to host over VIRTIO. We are registering a callback based
on 'nd_region' type. virtio_pmem driver requires this special
flush function. For rest of the region types we are registering
existing flush function. Report error returned by host fsync
failure to userspace.

[PATCH v9 2/7] virtio-pmem: Add virtio pmem driver

This patch adds virtio-pmem driver for KVM guest.

Guest reads the persistent memory range information from
Qemu over VIRTIO and registers it on nvdimm_bus. It also
creates a nd_region object with the persistent memory
range information so that existing 'nvdimm/pmem' driver
can reserve this into system memory map. This way
'virtio-pmem' driver uses existing functionality of pmem
driver to register persistent memory compatible for DAX
capable filesystems.

This also provides function to perform guest flush over
VIRTIO from 'pmem' driver when userspace performs flush
on DAX memory range.

[PATCH v9 3/7] libnvdimm: add dax_dev sync flag

This patch adds 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag which is set
for nd_region doing synchronous flush. This later
is used to disable MAP_SYNC functionality for
ext4 & xfs filesystem for devices don't support
synchronous flush.

[PATCH v9 4/7] dm: enable synchronous dax

This patch sets dax device 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag if all the target
 devices of device mapper support synchrononous DAX. If device
 mapper consists of both synchronous and asynchronous dax devices,
 we don't set 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag.

[PATCH v9 5/7] dax: check synchronous mapping is supported

This patch introduces 'daxdev_mapping_supported' helper
which checks if 'MAP_SYNC' is supported with filesystem
mapping. It also checks if corresponding dax_device is
synchronous. Virtio pmem device is asynchronous and
does not not support VM_SYNC.

[PATCH v9 6/7] ext4: disable map_sync for async flush

Dont support 'MAP_SYNC' with non-DAX files and DAX files
with asynchronous dax_device. Virtio pmem provides
asynchronous host page cache flush mechanism. We don't
support 'MAP_SYNC' with virtio pmem and ext4.

So ... why are we sending string commands and expect native-endianess
integers and don't define a proper request/response structure + request
types in include/uapi/linux/virtio_pmem.h like

struct virtio_pmem_resp {
	__virtio32 ret;
}

#define VIRTIO_PMEM_REQ_TYPE_FLUSH	1
struct virtio_pmem_req {
	__virtio16 type;
}

... and this way we also define a proper endianess format for exchange
and keep it extensible

@MST, what's your take on this?

So this triggers:

In file included from drivers/nvdimm/e820.c:7:
./include/linux/libnvdimm.h:140:51: warning: ?struct bio? declared
inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition
or declaration
  int (*flush)(struct nd_region *nd_region, struct bio *bio);
                                                   ^~~
I was already feeling uneasy about trying to squeeze this into v5.2,
but this warning and the continued drip of comments leads me to
conclude that this driver would do well to wait one more development
cycle. Lets close out the final fixups and let this driver soak in
-next. Then for the v5.3 cycle I'll redouble my efforts towards the
goal of closing patch acceptance at the -rc6 / -rc7 development
milestone.
