======================================= | ||
The padata parallel execution mechanism | ||
======================================= | ||
|
||
:Date: December 2019 | ||
|
||
Padata is a mechanism by which the kernel can farm jobs out to be done in | ||
parallel on multiple CPUs while retaining their ordering. It was developed for | ||
use with the IPsec code, which needs to be able to perform encryption and | ||
decryption on large numbers of packets without reordering those packets. The | ||
crypto developers made a point of writing padata in a sufficiently general | ||
fashion that it could be put to other uses as well. | ||
|
||
Usage | ||
===== | ||
|
||
Initializing | ||
------------ | ||
|
||
The first step in using padata is to set up a padata_instance structure for | ||
overall control of how jobs are to be run:: | ||
|
||
#include <linux/padata.h> | ||
|
||
struct padata_instance *padata_alloc_possible(const char *name); | ||
|
||
'name' simply identifies the instance. | ||
|
||
There are functions for enabling and disabling the instance:: | ||
|
||
int padata_start(struct padata_instance *pinst); | ||
void padata_stop(struct padata_instance *pinst); | ||
|
||
These functions are setting or clearing the "PADATA_INIT" flag; if that flag is | ||
not set, other functions will refuse to work. padata_start() returns zero on | ||
success (flag set) or -EINVAL if the padata cpumask contains no active CPU | ||
(flag not set). padata_stop() clears the flag and blocks until the padata | ||
instance is unused. | ||
|
||
Finally, complete padata initialization by allocating a padata_shell:: | ||
|
||
struct padata_shell *padata_alloc_shell(struct padata_instance *pinst); | ||
|
||
A padata_shell is used to submit a job to padata and allows a series of such | ||
jobs to be serialized independently. A padata_instance may have one or more | ||
padata_shells associated with it, each allowing a separate series of jobs. | ||
|
||
Modifying cpumasks | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
The CPUs used to run jobs can be changed in two ways, programatically with | ||
padata_set_cpumask() or via sysfs. The former is defined:: | ||
|
||
int padata_set_cpumask(struct padata_instance *pinst, int cpumask_type, | ||
cpumask_var_t cpumask); | ||
|
||
Here cpumask_type is one of PADATA_CPU_PARALLEL or PADATA_CPU_SERIAL, where a | ||
parallel cpumask describes which processors will be used to execute jobs | ||
submitted to this instance in parallel and a serial cpumask defines which | ||
processors are allowed to be used as the serialization callback processor. | ||
cpumask specifies the new cpumask to use. | ||
|
||
There may be sysfs files for an instance's cpumasks. For example, pcrypt's | ||
live in /sys/kernel/pcrypt/<instance-name>. Within an instance's directory | ||
there are two files, parallel_cpumask and serial_cpumask, and either cpumask | ||
may be changed by echoing a bitmask into the file, for example:: | ||
|
||
echo f > /sys/kernel/pcrypt/pencrypt/parallel_cpumask | ||
|
||
Reading one of these files shows the user-supplied cpumask, which may be | ||
different from the 'usable' cpumask. | ||
|
||
Padata maintains two pairs of cpumasks internally, the user-supplied cpumasks | ||
and the 'usable' cpumasks. (Each pair consists of a parallel and a serial | ||
cpumask.) The user-supplied cpumasks default to all possible CPUs on instance | ||
allocation and may be changed as above. The usable cpumasks are always a | ||
subset of the user-supplied cpumasks and contain only the online CPUs in the | ||
user-supplied masks; these are the cpumasks padata actually uses. So it is | ||
legal to supply a cpumask to padata that contains offline CPUs. Once an | ||
offline CPU in the user-supplied cpumask comes online, padata is going to use | ||
it. | ||
|
||
Changing the CPU masks are expensive operations, so it should not be done with | ||
great frequency. | ||
|
||
Running A Job | ||
------------- | ||
|
||
Actually submitting work to the padata instance requires the creation of a | ||
padata_priv structure, which represents one job:: | ||
|
||
struct padata_priv { | ||
/* Other stuff here... */ | ||
void (*parallel)(struct padata_priv *padata); | ||
void (*serial)(struct padata_priv *padata); | ||
}; | ||
|
||
This structure will almost certainly be embedded within some larger | ||
structure specific to the work to be done. Most of its fields are private to | ||
padata, but the structure should be zeroed at initialisation time, and the | ||
parallel() and serial() functions should be provided. Those functions will | ||
be called in the process of getting the work done as we will see | ||
momentarily. | ||
|
||
The submission of the job is done with:: | ||
|
||
int padata_do_parallel(struct padata_shell *ps, | ||
struct padata_priv *padata, int *cb_cpu); | ||
|
||
The ps and padata structures must be set up as described above; cb_cpu | ||
points to the preferred CPU to be used for the final callback when the job is | ||
done; it must be in the current instance's CPU mask (if not the cb_cpu pointer | ||
is updated to point to the CPU actually chosen). The return value from | ||
padata_do_parallel() is zero on success, indicating that the job is in | ||
progress. -EBUSY means that somebody, somewhere else is messing with the | ||
instance's CPU mask, while -EINVAL is a complaint about cb_cpu not being in the | ||
serial cpumask, no online CPUs in the parallel or serial cpumasks, or a stopped | ||
instance. | ||
|
||
Each job submitted to padata_do_parallel() will, in turn, be passed to | ||
exactly one call to the above-mentioned parallel() function, on one CPU, so | ||
true parallelism is achieved by submitting multiple jobs. parallel() runs with | ||
software interrupts disabled and thus cannot sleep. The parallel() | ||
function gets the padata_priv structure pointer as its lone parameter; | ||
information about the actual work to be done is probably obtained by using | ||
container_of() to find the enclosing structure. | ||
|
||
Note that parallel() has no return value; the padata subsystem assumes that | ||
parallel() will take responsibility for the job from this point. The job | ||
need not be completed during this call, but, if parallel() leaves work | ||
outstanding, it should be prepared to be called again with a new job before | ||
the previous one completes. | ||
|
||
Serializing Jobs | ||
---------------- | ||
|
||
When a job does complete, parallel() (or whatever function actually finishes | ||
the work) should inform padata of the fact with a call to:: | ||
|
||
void padata_do_serial(struct padata_priv *padata); | ||
|
||
At some point in the future, padata_do_serial() will trigger a call to the | ||
serial() function in the padata_priv structure. That call will happen on | ||
the CPU requested in the initial call to padata_do_parallel(); it, too, is | ||
run with local software interrupts disabled. | ||
Note that this call may be deferred for a while since the padata code takes | ||
pains to ensure that jobs are completed in the order in which they were | ||
submitted. | ||
|
||
Destroying | ||
---------- | ||
|
||
Cleaning up a padata instance predictably involves calling the three free | ||
functions that correspond to the allocation in reverse:: | ||
|
||
void padata_free_shell(struct padata_shell *ps); | ||
void padata_stop(struct padata_instance *pinst); | ||
void padata_free(struct padata_instance *pinst); | ||
|
||
It is the user's responsibility to ensure all outstanding jobs are complete | ||
before any of the above are called. | ||
