Merge branch 'bpf-af-xdp-barrier-fixes'
Björn Töpel says:
====================
This is a four patch series of various barrier, {READ, WRITE}_ONCE
cleanups in the AF_XDP socket code. More details can be found in the
corresponding commit message. Previous revisions: v1 [4] and v2 [5].
For an AF_XDP socket, most control plane operations are done under the
control mutex (struct xdp_sock, mutex), but there are some places
where members of the struct is read outside the control mutex. The
dev, queue_id members are set in bind() and cleared at cleanup. The
umem, fq, cq, tx, rx, and state member are all assigned in various
places, e.g. bind() and setsockopt(). When the members are assigned,
they are protected by the control mutex, but since they are read
outside the mutex, a WRITE_ONCE is required to avoid store-tearing on
the read-side.
Prior the state variable was introduced by Ilya, the dev member was
used to determine whether the socket was bound or not. However, when
dev was read, proper SMP barriers and READ_ONCE were missing. In order
to address the missing barriers and READ_ONCE, we start using the
state variable as a point of synchronization. The state member
read/write is paired with proper SMP barriers, and from this follows
that the members described above does not need READ_ONCE statements if
used in conjunction with state check.
To summarize: The members struct xdp_sock members dev, queue_id, umem,
fq, cq, tx, rx, and state were read lock-less, with incorrect barriers
and missing {READ, WRITE}_ONCE. After this series umem, fq, cq, tx,
rx, and state are read lock-less. When these members are updated,
WRITE_ONCE is used. When read, READ_ONCE are only used when read
outside the control mutex (e.g. mmap) or, not synchronized with the
state member (XSK_BOUND plus smp_rmb())
