Implement the concept of the unmapped VMIO buffers, i.e. buffers which do not map the b_pages pages into buffer_map KVA. The use of the unmapped buffers eliminate the need to perform TLB shootdown for mapping on the buffer creation and reuse, greatly reducing the amount of IPIs for shootdown on big-SMP machines and eliminating up to 25-30% of the system time on i/o intensive workloads. The unmapped buffer should be explicitely requested by the GB_UNMAPPED flag by the consumer. For unmapped buffer, no KVA reservation is performed at all. The consumer might request unmapped buffer which does have a KVA reserve, to manually map it without recursing into buffer cache and blocking, with the GB_KVAALLOC flag. When the mapped buffer is requested and unmapped buffer already exists, the cache performs an upgrade, possibly reusing the KVA reservation. Unmapped buffer is translated into unmapped bio in g_vfs_strategy(). Unmapped bio carry a pointer to the vm_page_t array, offset and length instead of the data pointer. The provider which processes the bio should explicitely specify a readiness to accept unmapped bio, otherwise g_down geom thread performs the transient upgrade of the bio request by mapping the pages into the new bio_transient_map KVA submap. The bio_transient_map submap claims up to 10% of the buffer map, and the total buffer_map + bio_transient_map KVA usage stays the same. Still, it could be manually tuned by kern.bio_transient_maxcnt tunable, in the units of the transient mappings. Eventually, the bio_transient_map could be removed after all geom classes and drivers can accept unmapped i/o requests. Unmapped support can be turned off by the vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed tunable, disabling which makes the buffer (or cluster) creation requests to ignore GB_UNMAPPED and GB_KVAALLOC flags. Unmapped buffers are only enabled by default on the architectures where pmap_copy_page() was implemented and tested. In the rework, filesystem metadata is not the subject to maxbufspace limit anymore. Since the metadata buffers are always mapped, the buffers still have to fit into the buffer map, which provides a reasonable (but practically unreachable) upper bound on it. The non-metadata buffer allocations, both mapped and unmapped, is accounted against maxbufspace, as before. Effectively, this means that the maxbufspace is forced on mapped and unmapped buffers separately. The pre-patch bufspace limiting code did not worked, because buffer_map fragmentation does not allow the limit to be reached. By Jeff Roberson request, the getnewbuf() function was split into smaller single-purpose functions.

Introduce a sysctl kern.vm_guest that reflects what the kernel knows about it running under a virtual environment. This also introduces a globally accessible variable vm_guest that can be used where appropriate in the kernel to inspect this environment. To make it easier for the long run, an enum VM_GUEST is also introduced, which could possibly be factored out in a header somewhere (but the question is where - vm/vm_param.h? sys/param.h?) so it eventually becomes a part of the standard KPI. In any case, it's a start. The purpose of all this isn't to absolutely detect that the OS is running under a virtual environment (cf. "redpill") but to allow the parts of the kernel and the userland that care about this particular aspect and can do something useful depending on it to have a standardised interface. Reducing kern.hz is one example but there are other things that could be done like avoiding context switches, not using CPU instructions that are known to be slow in emulation, possibly different strategies in VM (memory) allocation, CPU scheduling, etc. It isn't clear if the JAILS/VIMAGE functionality should also be exposed by this particular mechanism (probably not since they're not "full" virtual hardware environments). Sometime in the future another sysctl and a variable could be introduced to reflect if the kernel supports any kind of virtual hosting (e.g. VMWare VMI, Xen dom0).

Base the mbuf related limits on the available physical memory or kernel memory, whichever is lower. The overall mbuf related memory limit must be set so that mbufs (and clusters of various sizes) can't exhaust physical RAM or KVM. The limit is set to half of the physical RAM or KVM (whichever is lower) as the baseline. In any normal scenario we want to leave at least half of the physmem/kvm for other kernel functions and userspace to prevent it from swapping too easily. Via a tunable kern.maxmbufmem the limit can be upped to at most 3/4 of physmem/kvm. At the same time divorce maxfiles from maxusers and set maxfiles to physpages / 8 with a floor based on maxusers. This way busy servers can make use of the significantly increased mbuf limits with a much larger number of open sockets. Tidy up ordering in init_param2() and check up on some users of those values calculated here. Out of the overall mbuf memory limit 2K clusters and 4K (page size) clusters to get 1/4 each because these are the most heavily used mbuf sizes. 2K clusters are used for MTU 1500 ethernet inbound packets. 4K clusters are used whenever possible for sends on sockets and thus outbound packets. The larger cluster sizes of 9K and 16K are limited to 1/6 of the overall mbuf memory limit. When jumbo MTU's are used these large clusters will end up only on the inbound path. They are not used on outbound, there it's still 4K. Yes, that will stay that way because otherwise we run into lots of complications in the stack. And it really isn't a problem, so don't make a scene. Normal mbufs (256B) weren't limited at all previously. This was problematic as there are certain places in the kernel that on allocation failure of clusters try to piece together their packet from smaller mbufs. The mbuf limit is the number of all other mbuf sizes together plus some more to allow for standalone mbufs (ACK for example) and to send off a copy of a cluster. Unfortunately there isn't a way to set an overall limit for all mbuf memory together as UMA doesn't support such a limiting. NB: Every cluster also has an mbuf associated with it. Two examples on the revised mbuf sizing limits: 1GB KVM: 512MB limit for mbufs 419,430 mbufs 65,536 2K mbuf clusters 32,768 4K mbuf clusters 9,709 9K mbuf clusters 5,461 16K mbuf clusters 16GB RAM: 8GB limit for mbufs 33,554,432 mbufs 1,048,576 2K mbuf clusters 524,288 4K mbuf clusters 155,344 9K mbuf clusters 87,381 16K mbuf clusters These defaults should be sufficient for even the most demanding network loads.

Unmapped buffers are only enabled by default on the architectures where pmap_copy_page() was implemented and tested. In the rework, filesystem metadata is not the subject to maxbufspace limit anymore. Since the metadata buffers are always mapped, the buffers still have to fit into the buffer map, which provides a reasonable (but practically unreachable) upper bound on it. The non-metadata buffer allocations, both mapped and unmapped, is accounted against maxbufspace, as before. Effectively, this means that the maxbufspace is forced on mapped and unmapped buffers separately. The pre-patch bufspace limiting code did not worked, because buffer_map fragmentation does not allow the limit to be reached. By Jeff Roberson request, the getnewbuf() function was split into smaller single-purpose functions.

Base the mbuf related limits on the available physical memory or kernel memory, whichever is lower. The overall mbuf related memory limit must be set so that mbufs (and clusters of various sizes) can't exhaust physical RAM or KVM. The limit is set to half of the physical RAM or KVM (whichever is lower) as the baseline. In any normal scenario we want to leave at least half of the physmem/kvm for other kernel functions and userspace to prevent it from swapping too easily. Via a tunable kern.maxmbufmem the limit can be upped to at most 3/4 of physmem/kvm. At the same time divorce maxfiles from maxusers and set maxfiles to physpages / 8 with a floor based on maxusers. This way busy servers can make use of the significantly increased mbuf limits with a much larger number of open sockets. Tidy up ordering in init_param2() and check up on some users of those values calculated here. Out of the overall mbuf memory limit 2K clusters and 4K (page size) clusters to get 1/4 each because these are the most heavily used mbuf sizes. 2K clusters are used for MTU 1500 ethernet inbound packets. 4K clusters are used whenever possible for sends on sockets and thus outbound packets. The larger cluster sizes of 9K and 16K are limited to 1/6 of the overall mbuf memory limit. When jumbo MTU's are used these large clusters will end up only on the inbound path. They are not used on outbound, there it's still 4K. Yes, that will stay that way because otherwise we run into lots of complications in the stack. And it really isn't a problem, so don't make a scene. Normal mbufs (256B) weren't limited at all previously. This was problematic as there are certain places in the kernel that on allocation failure of clusters try to piece together their packet from smaller mbufs. The mbuf limit is the number of all other mbuf sizes together plus some more to allow for standalone mbufs (ACK for example) and to send off a copy of a cluster. Unfortunately there isn't a way to set an overall limit for all mbuf memory together as UMA doesn't support such a limiting. NB: Every cluster also has an mbuf associated with it. Two examples on the revised mbuf sizing limits: 1GB KVM: 512MB limit for mbufs 419,430 mbufs 65,536 2K mbuf clusters 32,768 4K mbuf clusters 9,709 9K mbuf clusters 5,461 16K mbuf clusters 16GB RAM: 8GB limit for mbufs 33,554,432 mbufs 1,048,576 2K mbuf clusters 524,288 4K mbuf clusters 155,344 9K mbuf clusters 87,381 16K mbuf clusters These defaults should be sufficient for even the most demanding network loads.
