[PATCH v8 0/5] lib,kprobes: kretprobe scalability improvement

[wuqiang]

This patch series introduces a scalable and lockless ring-array based
object pool and replaces the original freelist (a LIFO queue based on
singly linked list) to improve scalability of kretprobed routines.

v8:
  1) objpool: refcount added for objpool lifecycle management

v7:
  1) objpool: implementation simplified as Masami advised
  2) rethook_alloc: error codes returning supported (ERR_PTR)
  3) MAINTAINERS: support added for objpool files
  4) synced to latest 6.1 with x86_64/x86/aarch64 verified

wuqiang (5):
  lib: objpool added: ring-array based lockless MPMC queue
  lib: objpool test module added
  kprobes: kretprobe scalability improvement with objpool
  kprobes: freelist.h removed
  MAINTAINERS: objpool added

[PATCH v8 1/5] lib: objpool added: ring-array based lockless MPMC queue

[wuqiang]

The object pool is a scalable implementaion of high performance queue
for objects allocation and reclamation, such as kretprobe instances.

With leveraging per-cpu ring-array to mitigate the hot spots of memory
contention, it could deliver near-linear scalability for high parallel
scenarios. The ring-array is compactly managed in a single cache-line
to benefit from warmed L1 cache for most cases (<= 4 objects per-core).
The body of pre-allocated objects is stored in continuous cache-lines
just after the ring-array.

The object pool is interrupt safe. Both allocation and reclamation
(object pop and push operations) can be preemptible or interruptable.

It's best suited for following cases:
1) Memory allocation or reclamation are prohibited or too expensive
2) Consumers are of different priorities, such as irqs and threads

Limitations:
1) Maximum objects (capacity) is determined during pool initializing
2) The memory of objects won't be freed until the poll is finalized
3) Object allocation (pop) may fail after trying all cpu slots
4) Object reclamation (push) won't fail but may take long time to
   finish for imbalanced scenarios. You can try larger max_entries
   to mitigate, or ( >= CPUS * nr_objs) to avoid

[PATCH v8 2/5] lib: objpool test module added

[wuqiang]

The test_objpool module (test_objpool) will run several testcases
for objpool stress and performance evaluation. Each testcase will
have all available cpu cores involved to create a situation of high
parallel and high contention.

As of now there are 3 groups and 3 * 2 testcases in total:

1) group 1: synchronous mode
   objpool is managed synchronously, that is, all objects are to be
   reclaimed before objpool finalization and the objpool owner makes
   sure of it. All threads on different cores run in the same pace.
2) group 2: synchronous + miss mode
   This test group is mainly for performance evaluation of missing
   cases when pre-allocated objects are less than the requested.
3) group 3: asynchronous mode
   This case is just an emulation of kretprobe. The objpool owner
   has no control of the object after it's allocated. hrtimer irq
   is introduced to stress objpool with thread preemption.

[PATCH v8 3/5] kprobes: kretprobe scalability improvement with objpool

[wuqiang]

kretprobe is using freelist to manage return-instances, but freelist,
as LIFO queue based on singly linked list, scales badly and reduces
the overall throughput of kretprobed routines, especially for high
contention scenarios.

Here's a typical throughput test of sys_flock (counts in 10 seconds,
measured with perf stat -a -I 10000 -e syscalls:sys_enter_flock):

OS: Debian 10 X86_64, Linux 6.1rc2
HW: XEON 8336C x 2, 64 cores/128 threads, DDR4 3200MT/s

This patch introduces objpool to kretprobe and rethook, with orginal
freelist replaced and brings near-linear scalability to kretprobed
routines. Tests of kretprobe throughput show the biggest ratio as
333.9x of the original freelist. Here's the comparison:

Tests on 96-core ARM64 system output similarly, but with the biggest
ratio up to 642.2x:

[PATCH v8 4/5] kprobes: freelist.h removed

[wuqiang]

This patch will remove freelist.h from kernel source tree, since the
only use cases (kretprobe and rethook) are converted to objpool.

[PATCH v8 5/5] MAINTAINERS: objpool added

[wuqiang]

ojbpool, a scalable and lockless ring-array based object pool, was
introduced to replace the original freelist (a LIFO queue based on
singly linked list) to improve kretprobe scalability.

Hi Matt,

Sorry, I missed to commented v7 patch. Anyway, please read
my comments on previous version.

At least this update part looks good to me.
(But I think this may be useful only for kretprobe/rethook
use cases...)

Thank you,

Masami,

Were there other updates you expected from this series?

Hi Steve,

I'm still working on the v9, but these days I'm a bit tied up with projects
at work. Hopefully I can figure it out this month.

Thanks,
Matt
