Subject: [PATCH v1 3/5] dm: dm-user: New target that proxies BIOs to userspace

From: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@...gle.com>

dm-user is a device mapper target that allows a userpsace process to
handle each incoming BIO -- essentially it's Fuse, but for the block
layer.

Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@...gle.com>

This has numerous issues with this, which I've enumerated via FIXMEs
scattered throughout the code.  While it's obviously in no shape to be
merged, this does at least function at a basic level (the next patch has
some tests).  Many of the FIXMEs are simply missing functionality, but I
wanted to send this out earlier rather than later as I have some higher
level questions:

* Does it even make sense to have this within device mapper?  There's no
  fundamental reason for this to be a device mapper target (ie, it could
  just be its own block device), but being this does allow us to
  piggyback on existing mechanisms to handle the device lifecycle.
* Is dm-user (in cooperation with the userspace daemon) responsible for
  ordering flush-related BIOs with any other BIOs, or is that handled
  elsewhere within the kernel?
* Is my shared target mutex legal?
* Is there any benefit to returing DM_MAPIO_KILLED as opposed to later
  terminating the BIO with an IO error after it has been submitted?

Each of the above is discussed in more detail in the code.

+ * dm-user uses four structures:
+ *
+ *  - "struct target", the outermost structure, corresponds to a single device
+ *    mapper target.  This contains the set of outstanding BIOs that have been
+ *    provided by DM and are not actively being processed by the user, along
+ *    with a misc device that userspace can open to communicate with the
+ *    kernel.  Each time userspaces opens the misc device a new channel is
+ *    created.
+ *  - "struct channel", which represents a single active communication channel
+ *    with userspace.  Userspace may choose arbitrary read/write sizes to use
+ *    when processing messages, channels form these into logical accesses.
+ *    When userspace responds to a full message the channel completes the BIO
+ *    and obtains a new message to process from the target.
+ *  - "struct message", which wraps a BIO with the additional information
+ *    required by the kernel to sort out what to do with BIOs when they return
+ *    from userspace.
+ *  - "struct dm_user_message", which is the exact message format that
+ *    userspace sees.
+ *
+ * The hot path contains three distinct operations:
+ *
+ *  - user_map(), which is provided a BIO from device mapper that is queued
+ *    into the target.  This allocates and enqueues a new message.
+ *  - dev_read(), which dequeues a message, copies it to userspace.
+ *  - dev_write(), which looks up a message (keyed by sequence number) and
+ *    completes the corresponding BIO.
+ *
+ * Lock ordering (outer to inner)
+ *
+ * 1) miscdevice's global lock.  This is held around dev_open, so it has to be
+ *    the outermost lock.
+ * 2) target->lock
+ * 3) channel->lock

+	 *   - Some sort of pre-filter that allows userspace to hook in here

+	 *
+	 * For example, in Android we have an in-kernel DM device called
+	 * "dm-bow" that takes advange of some portion of the space that has
+	 * been discarded on a device to provide opportunistic block-level
+	 * backups.  While one could imagine just implementing this entirely in
