Pull io_uring zero-copy receive support from Jens Axboe:
"This adds support for zero-copy receive with io_uring, enabling fast
bulk receive of data directly into application memory, rather than
needing to copy the data out of kernel memory.
While this version only supports host memory as that was the initial
target, other memory types are planned as well, with notably GPU
memory coming next.
This work depends on some networking components which were queued up
on the networking side, but have now landed in your tree.
This is the work of Pavel Begunkov and David Wei. From the v14 posting:
'We configure a page pool that a driver uses to fill a hw rx queue
to hand out user pages instead of kernel pages. Any data that ends
up hitting this hw rx queue will thus be dma'd into userspace
memory directly, without needing to be bounced through kernel
memory. 'Reading' data out of a socket instead becomes a
_notification_ mechanism, where the kernel tells userspace where
the data is. The overall approach is similar to the devmem TCP
proposal
This relies on hw header/data split, flow steering and RSS to
ensure packet headers remain in kernel memory and only desired
flows hit a hw rx queue configured for zero copy. Configuring this
is outside of the scope of this patchset.
We share netdev core infra with devmem TCP. The main difference is
that io_uring is used for the uAPI and the lifetime of all objects
are bound to an io_uring instance. Data is 'read' using a new
io_uring request type. When done, data is returned via a new shared
refill queue. A zero copy page pool refills a hw rx queue from this
refill queue directly. Of course, the lifetime of these data
buffers are managed by io_uring rather than the networking stack,
with different refcounting rules.
This patchset is the first step adding basic zero copy support. We
will extend this iteratively with new features e.g. dynamically
allocated zero copy areas, THP support, dmabuf support, improved
copy fallback, general optimisations and more'
In a local setup, I was able to saturate a 200G link with a single CPU
core, and at netdev conf 0x19 earlier this month, Jamal reported
188Gbit of bandwidth using a single core (no HT, including soft-irq).
Safe to say the efficiency is there, as bigger links would be needed
to find the per-core limit, and it's considerably more efficient and
faster than the existing devmem solution"
