Subject: [PATCH v3 00/55] splice, net: Replace sendpage with sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES)
Hi Willy, Dave, et al.,
I've been looking at how to make pipes handle the splicing in of multipage
folios and also looking to see if I could implement a suggestion from Willy
that pipe_buffers could perhaps hold a list of pages (which could make
splicing simpler - an entire splice segment would go in a single
pipe_buffer).
There are a couple of issues here:
(1) Gifting/stealing a multipage folio is really tricky. I think that if
a multipage folio if gifted, the gift flag should be quietly dropped.
Userspace has no control over what splice() and vmsplice() will see in
the pagecache.
(2) The sendpage op expects to be given a single page and various network
protocols just attach that to a socket buffer.
This patchset aims to deal with the second by removing the ->sendpage()
operation and replacing it with sendmsg() and a new internal flag
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES. As sendmsg() takes an I/O iterator, this also affords
the opportunity to pass a slew of pages in one go, rather than one at a
time.
If MSG_SPLICE_PAGES is set, the protocol sendmsg() instance will attempt to
splice the pages out of the buffer, copying into individual fragments those
that it can't (e.g. because they belong to the slab).
The patchset consists of the following parts:
(1) A couple of fixes.
(2) Define the MSG_SPLICE_PAGES flag.
(3) The page_frag_alloc_align() allocator is overhauled:
(a) Split it out from mm/page_alloc.c into its own file,
mm/page_frag_alloc.c.
(b) Make it use multipage folios rather than compound pages.
(c) Give it per-cpu buckets to allocate from so no locking is
required.
(d) The netdev_alloc_cache and the napi fragment cache are then cast
in terms of this and some private allocators are removed.
I'm not sure that the existing allocator is 100% multithread safe.
(4) Implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES support in TCP.
(5) Make MSG_SPLICE_PAGES copy unspliceable pages (eg. slab pages).
(6) Make do_tcp_sendpages() just wrap sendmsg() and then fold it in to its
various callers.
(7) Implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES support in IP and make udp_sendpage() just
a wrapper around sendmsg().
(8) Make IP/UDP copy unspliceable pages.
(9) Implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES support in AF_UNIX.
(10) Make AF_UNIX copy unspliceable pages.
(11) Make AF_ALG use netfs_extract_iter_to_sg().
(12) Make AF_ALG implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES and make af_alg_sendpage() just
a wrapper around sendmsg().
(13) Make AF_ALG/hash implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES.
(14) Make TLS implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES and make its sendpage
implementations just a wrapper.
[!] Note that tls_sw_sendpage_locked() appears to have the wrong
locking upstream. I think the caller will only hold the socket
lock, but it should hold tls_ctx->tx_lock too.
(15) Make Chelsio's chtls implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES.
(16) Make AF_KCM implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES.
(17) Rename pipe_to_sendpage() to pipe_to_sendmsg() and make it a wrapper
around sendmsg().
(18) Replace splice_to_socket() with an implementation that doesn't use
splice_from_pipe() to push one page at a time, but rather something
that splices up to 16 pages at once. This absorbs pipe_to_sendmsg().
(19) Remove sendpage file operation.
(20) Convert siw, ceph, iscsi and tcp_bpf to use sendmsg() instead of
tcp_sendpage().
(21) Make skb_send_sock() use sendmsg().
(22) Convert ceph, rds, dlm, sunrpc, nvme, kcm, smc, ocfs2 and drbd to use
sendmsg().
(23) Make drbd delegate copying of slab pages to TCP and pass an entire
bio's bvec to sendmsg at a time. Delegate copying of unspliceable
pages to TCP.
(24) Remove the sendpage socket operation.
I've killed off all uses of kernel_sendpage() and all uses of sendpage_ok()
outside of the protocols.
I have tested AF_UNIX splicing - which, surprisingly, seems nearly twice as
fast - TCP splicing, the siw driver (softIWarp RDMA with nfs and cifs),
sunrpc (with nfsd), UDP (using a patched rxrpc) and TLS/sw.
I've pushed the patches here also:

Changes
=======
ver #3)
- Dropped the iterator-of-iterators patch.
- Only expunge MSG_SPLICE_PAGES in sys_send[m]msg, not sys_recv[m]msg.
- Split MSG_SPLICE_PAGES code in __ip_append_data() out into helper
functions.
- Implement MSG_SPLICE_PAGES support in __ip6_append_data() using the
above helper functions.
- Rename 'xlength' to 'initial_length'.
- Minimise the changes to sunrpc for the moment.
- Don't give -EOPNOTSUPP if NETIF_F_SG not available, just copy instead.
- Implemented MSG_SPLICE_PAGES support in the TLS, Chelsio-TLS and AF_KCM
code.
ver #2)
- Overhauled the page_frag_alloc() allocator: large folios and per-cpu.
- Got rid of my own zerocopy allocator.
- Use iov_iter_extract_pages() rather poking in iter->bvec.
- Made page splicing fall back to page copying on a page-by-page basis.
- Made splice_to_socket() pass 16 pipe buffers at a time.
- Made AF_ALG/hash use finup/digest where possible in sendmsg.
- Added an iterator-of-iterators, ITER_ITERLIST.
- Made sunrpc use the iterator-of-iterators.
- Converted more drivers.
