This adds support for io-uring communication between kernel and
userspace daemon using opcode the IORING_OP_URING_CMD. The basic
approach was taken from ublk.
Motivation for these patches is all to increase fuse performance,
by:
- Reducing kernel/userspace context switches
- Part of that is given by the ring ring - handling multiple
requests on either side of kernel/userspace without the need
to switch per request
- Part of that is FUSE_URING_REQ_COMMIT_AND_FETCH, i.e. submitting
the result of a request and fetching the next fuse request
in one step. In contrary to legacy read/write to /dev/fuse
- Core and numa affinity - one ring per core, which allows to
avoid cpu core context switches
A more detailed motivation description can be found in the
introction of previous patch series
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241016-fuse-uring-for-6-10-rf...
That description also includes benchmark results with RFCv1.
Performance with the current series needs to be tested, but will
be lower, as several optimization patches are missing, like
wake-up on the same core. These optimizations will be submitted
after merging the main changes.
The corresponding libfuse patches are on my uring branch, but needs
cleanup for submission - that will be done once the kernel design
will not change anymore
https://github.com/bsbernd/libfuse/tree/uring
Testing with that libfuse branch is possible by running something
like:
example/passthrough_hp -o allow_other --debug-fuse --nopassthrough \
--uring --uring-q-depth=128 /scratch/source /scratch/dest
With the --debug-fuse option one should see CQE in the request type,
if requests are received via io-uring:
cqe unique: 4, opcode: GETATTR (3), nodeid: 1, insize: 16, pid: 7060
unique: 4, result=104
Without the --uring option "cqe" is replaced by the default "dev"
dev unique: 4, opcode: GETATTR (3), nodeid: 1, insize: 56, pid: 7117
unique: 4, success, outsize: 120
Future work
- different payload sizes per ring
- zero copy

Changes in v8:
- Move the lock in fuse_uring_create_queue to have initialization before
taking fc->lock (Joanne)
- Avoid double assignment of ring_ent->cmd (Pavel)
- Set a global ring may_payload size instead of per ring-entry (Joanne)
- Also consider fc->max_pages for the max payload size (instead of
fc->max_write only) (Joanne)
- Fix freeing of ring->queues in error case in fuse_uring_create (Joanne)
- Fix allocation size of the ring, including queues was a leftover from
previous patches (Miklos, Joanne)
- Move FUSE_URING_IOV_SEGS definiton to the top of dev_uring.c (Joanne)a
- Update Documentation/filesystems/fuse-io-uring.rst and use 'io-uring'
instead of 'uring' (Pavel)
- Rename SQE op codes to FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_REGISTER and
FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_COMMIT_AND_FETCH
- Use READ_ONCE on data in 80B SQE section (struct fuse_uring_cmd_req)
(Pavel)
- Add back sanity check for IO_URING_F_SQE128 (had been initially there,
but got lost between different version updates) (Pavel)
- Remove pr_devel logs (Miklos)
- Only set fuse_uring_cmd() in to file_operations in the last patch
and mark that function with __maybe_unused before, to avoid potential
compiler warnings (Pavel)
- Add missing sanity for qid < ring->nr_queues
- Add check for fc->initialized - FUSE_IO_URING_CMD_REGISTER must only
arrive after FUSE_INIT in order to know the max payload size
- Add in 'struct fuse_uring_ent_in_out' and add in the commit id.
For now the commit id is the request unique, but any number
that can identify the corresponding struct fuse_ring_ent object.
The current way via struct fuse_req needs struct fuse_pqueue per
queue (>2kb per core/queue), has hash overhead and is not suitable
for requests types without a unique (like future updates for notify
- Increase FUSE_KERNEL_MINOR_VERSION to 42
- Separate out make fuse_request_find/fuse_req_hash/fuse_pqueue_init
non-static to simplify review
- Don't return too early in fuse_uring_copy_to_ring, to always update
'ring_ent_in_out'
- Code simplification of fuse_uring_next_fuse_req()
- fuse_uring_commit_fetch was accidentally doing a full copy on stack
of queue->fpq
- Separate out setting and getting values from io_uring_cmd *cmd->pdu
into functions
- Fix freeing of queue->ent_released (was accidentally in the wrong
function)
- Remove the queue from fuse_uring_cmd_pdu, ring_ent is enough since
v7
- Return -EAGAIN for IO_URING_F_CANCEL when ring-entries are in the
wrong state. To be clarified with io-uring upstream if that is right.
- Slight simplifaction by using list_first_entry_or_null instead of
extra checks if the list is empty
- Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241127-fuse-uring-for-6-10-rf...
Changes in v7:
- Bug fixes:
- Removed unsetting ring->ready as that brought up a lock
order violation for fc->bg_lock/queue->lock
- Check for !fc->connected in fuse_uring_cmd(), tear down issues
came up with large ring sizes without that.
- Removal of (arg->size == 0) condition and warning in fuse_copy_args
as that is actually expected for some op codes.
- New init flag: FUSE_OVER_IO_URING to tell fuse-server about over-io-uring
capability
- Use fuse_set_zero_arg0() to set arg0 and rename to struct fuse_zero_header
(I hope I got Miklos suggestion right)
- Simplification of fuse_uring_ent_avail()
- Renamed some structs in uapi/linux/fuse.h to fuse_uring
(from fuse_ring) to be consistent
- Removal of 'if 0' in fuse_uring_cmd()
- Return -E... directly in fuse_uring_cmd() instead of setting err first
and removal of goto's in that function.
- Just a simple WARN_ON_ONCE() for (oh->unique & FUSE_INT_REQ_BIT) as
that code should be unreachable
- Removal of several pr_devel and some pr_warn() messages
- Removed RFC as it passed several xfstests runs now
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241122-fuse-uring-for-6-10-rf...
Changes in v6:
- Update to linux-6.12
- Use 'struct fuse_iqueue_ops' and redirect fiq->ops once
the ring is ready.
- Fix return code from fuse_uring_copy_from_ring on
copy_from_user failure (Dan Carpenter / kernel test robot)
- Avoid list iteration in fuse_uring_cancel (Joanne)
- Simplified struct fuse_ring_req_header
- Adds a new 'struct struct fuse_ring_ent_in_out'
- Fix assigning ring->queues[qid] in fuse_uring_create_queue,
it was too early, resulting in races
- Add back 'FRRS_INVALID = 0' to ensure ring-ent states always
have a value > 0
- Avoid assigning struct io_uring_cmd *cmd->pdu multiple times,
once on settings up IO_URING_F_CANCEL is sufficient for sending
the request as well.
- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241107-fuse-uring-for-6-10-rf...
Changes in v5:
- Main focus in v5 is the separation of headers from payload,
which required to introduce 'struct fuse_zero_in'.
- Addressed several teardown issues, that were a regression in v4.
- Fixed "BUG: sleeping function called" due to allocation while
holding a lock reported by David Wei
- Fix function comment reported by kernel test rebot
- Fix set but unused variabled reported by test robot
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241016-fuse-uring-for-6-10-rf...
Changes in v4:
- Removal of ioctls, all configuration is done dynamically
on the arrival of FUSE_URING_REQ_FETCH
- ring entries are not (and cannot be without config ioctls)
allocated as array of the ring/queue - removal of the tag
variable. Finding ring entries on FUSE_URING_REQ_COMMIT_AND_FETCH
is more cumbersome now and needs an almost unused
struct fuse_pqueue per fuse_ring_queue and uses the unique
id of fuse requests.
- No device clones needed for to workaroung hanging mounts
on fuse-server/daemon termination, handled by IO_URING_F_CANCEL
- Removal of sync/async ring entry types
- Addressed some of Joannes comments, but probably not all
- Only very basic tests run for v3, as more updates should follow quickly.
Changes in v3
- Removed the __wake_on_current_cpu optimization (for now
as that needs to go through another subsystem/tree) ,
removing it means a significant performance drop)
- Removed MMAP (Miklos)
- Switched to two IOCTLs, instead of one ioctl that had a field
for subcommands (ring and queue config) (Miklos)
- The ring entry state is a single state and not a bitmask anymore
(Josef)
- Addressed several other comments from Josef (I need to go over
the RFCv2 review again, I'm not sure if everything is addressed
already)
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240901-b4-fuse-uring-rfcv3-wi...
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240529-fuse-uring-for-6-9-r...
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240529-fuse-uring-for-6-9-rfc...
