Unmapped mbufs allow sendfile to carry multiple pages of data in a single mbuf, without mapping those pages. It is a requirement for Netflix's in-kernel TLS, and provides a 5-10% CPU savings on heavy web serving workloads when used by sendfile, due to effectively compressing socket buffers by an order of magnitude, and hence reducing cache misses. For this new external mbuf buffer type (EXT_PGS), the ext_buf pointer now points to a struct mbuf_ext_pgs structure instead of a data buffer. This structure contains an array of physical addresses (this reduces cache misses compared to an earlier version that stored an array of vm_page_t pointers). It also stores additional fields needed for in-kernel TLS such as the TLS header and trailer data that are currently unused. To more easily detect these mbufs, the M_NOMAP flag is set in m_flags in addition to M_EXT. Various functions like m_copydata() have been updated to safely access packet contents (using uiomove_fromphys()), to make things like BPF safe. NIC drivers advertise support for unmapped mbufs on transmit via a new IFCAP_NOMAP capability. This capability can be toggled via the new 'nomap' and '-nomap' ifconfig(8) commands. For NIC drivers that only transmit packet contents via DMA and use bus_dma, adding the capability to if_capabilities and if_capenable should be all that is required. If a NIC does not support unmapped mbufs, they are converted to a chain of mapped mbufs (using sf_bufs to provide the mapping) in ip_output or ip6_output. If an unmapped mbuf requires software checksums, it is also converted to a chain of mapped mbufs before computing the checksum.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
API manages physical address ranges.
|
|
Each list contains one or more elements.
|
|
Each element contains a starting physical address and a length.
|
|
Scatter/gather lists are read-only while they are shared.
|
|
If one wishes to alter an existing scatter/gather list and does not hold the
|
|
sole reference to the list,
|
|
then one should create a new list instead of modifying the existing list.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each scatter/gather list object contains a reference count.
|
|
New lists are created with a single reference.
|
|
New references are obtained by calling
|
|
.Nm sglist_hold
|
|
and are released by calling
|
|
.Nm sglist_free .
|
|
.Ss Allocating and Initializing Lists
|
|
Each
|
|
.Nm
|
|
object consists of a header structure and a variable-length array of
|
|
scatter/gather list elements.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_alloc
|
|
function allocates a new list that contains a header and
|
|
.Fa nsegs
|
|
scatter/gather list elements.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa mflags
|
|
argument can be set to either
|
|
.Dv M_NOWAIT
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv M_WAITOK .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_count
|
|
function returns the number of scatter/gather list elements needed to describe
|
|
the physical address ranges mapped by a single kernel virtual address range.
|
|
The kernel virtual address range starts at
|
|
.Fa buf
|
|
and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_count_ext_pgs
|
|
function returns the number of scatter/gather list elements needed to describe
|
|
the unmapped external mbuf buffer
|
|
.Fa ext_pgs .
|
|
The ranges start at an offset of
|
|
.Fa offset
|
|
relative to the start of the buffer and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_count_mb_ext_pgs
|
|
function returns the number of scatter/gather list elements needed to describe
|
|
the physical address ranges of a single unmapped mbuf
|
|
.Fa m .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_count_vmpages
|
|
function returns the number of scatter/gather list elements needed to describe
|
|
the physical address ranges of a buffer backed by an array of virtual memory
|
|
pages
|
|
.Fa m .
|
|
The buffer starts at an offset of
|
|
.Fa pgoff
|
|
bytes relative to the first page and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_build
|
|
function allocates a new scatter/gather list object that describes the physical
|
|
address ranges mapped by a single kernel virtual address range.
|
|
The kernel virtual address range starts at
|
|
.Fa buf
|
|
and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa mflags
|
|
argument can be set to either
|
|
.Dv M_NOWAIT
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv M_WAITOK .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_clone
|
|
function returns a copy of an existing scatter/gather list object
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa mflags
|
|
argument can be set to either
|
|
.Dv M_NOWAIT
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv M_WAITOK .
|
|
This can be used to obtain a private copy of a scatter/gather list before
|
|
modifying it.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_init
|
|
function initializes a scatter/gather list header.
|
|
The header is pointed to by
|
|
.Fa sg
|
|
and is initialized to manage an array of
|
|
.Fa maxsegs
|
|
scatter/gather list elements pointed to by
|
|
.Fa segs .
|
|
This can be used to initialize a scatter/gather list header whose storage
|
|
is not provided by
|
|
.Nm sglist_alloc .
|
|
In that case, the caller should not call
|
|
.Nm sglist_free
|
|
to release its own reference and is responsible for ensuring all other
|
|
references to the list are dropped before it releases the storage for
|
|
.Fa sg
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa segs .
|
|
.Ss Constructing Scatter/Gather Lists
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
API provides several routines for building a scatter/gather list to describe
|
|
one or more objects.
|
|
Specifically, the
|
|
.Nm sglist_append
|
|
family of routines can be used to append the physical address ranges described
|
|
by an object to the end of a scatter/gather list.
|
|
All of these routines return 0 on success or an error on failure.
|
|
If a request to append an address range to a scatter/gather list fails,
|
|
the scatter/gather list will remain unchanged.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by a single kernel
|
|
virtual address range to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
The kernel virtual address range starts at
|
|
.Fa buf
|
|
and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_bio
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by a single bio
|
|
.Fa bp
|
|
to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_ext_pgs
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by the unmapped
|
|
external mbuf buffer
|
|
.Fa ext_pgs
|
|
to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
The physical address ranges start at offset
|
|
.Fa offset
|
|
within
|
|
.Fa ext_pgs
|
|
and continue for
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_mb_ext_pgs
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by the unmapped
|
|
mbuf
|
|
.Fa m
|
|
to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
Note that unlike
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_mbuf ,
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_mb_ext_pgs
|
|
only adds ranges for a single mbuf,
|
|
not an entire mbuf chain.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_mbuf
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by an entire mbuf
|
|
chain
|
|
.Fa m
|
|
to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_phys
|
|
function appends a single physical address range to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
The physical address range starts at
|
|
.Fa paddr
|
|
and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_sglist
|
|
function appends physical address ranges described by the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa source
|
|
to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
The physical address ranges start at offset
|
|
.Fa offset
|
|
within
|
|
.Fa source
|
|
and continue for
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_uio
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by a
|
|
.Xr uio 9
|
|
object to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
Note that it is the caller's responsibility to ensure that the pages backing
|
|
the I/O request are wired for the lifetime of
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
Note also that this routine does not modify
|
|
.Fa uio .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_user
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges described by a single user
|
|
virtual address range to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
The user virtual address range is relative to the address space of the thread
|
|
.Fa td .
|
|
It starts at
|
|
.Fa buf
|
|
and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
Note that it is the caller's responsibility to ensure that the pages backing
|
|
the user buffer are wired for the lifetime of
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_vmpages
|
|
function appends the physical address ranges of a buffer backed by an array
|
|
of virtual memory pages
|
|
.Fa m .
|
|
The buffer starts at an offset of
|
|
.Fa pgoff
|
|
bytes relative to the first page and is
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_consume_uio
|
|
function is a variation of
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_uio .
|
|
As with
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_uio ,
|
|
it appends the physical address ranges described by
|
|
.Fa uio
|
|
to the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
Unlike
|
|
.Nm sglist_append_uio ,
|
|
however,
|
|
.Nm sglist_consume_uio
|
|
modifies the I/O request to indicate that the appended address ranges have
|
|
been processed similar to calling
|
|
.Xr uiomove 9 .
|
|
This routine will only append ranges that describe up to
|
|
.Fa resid
|
|
total bytes in length.
|
|
If the available segments in the scatter/gather list are exhausted before
|
|
.Fa resid
|
|
bytes are processed,
|
|
then the
|
|
.Fa uio
|
|
structure will be updated to reflect the actual number of bytes processed,
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm sglist_consume_io
|
|
will return zero to indicate success.
|
|
In effect, this function will perform partial reads or writes.
|
|
The caller can compare the
|
|
.Fa uio_resid
|
|
member of
|
|
.Fa uio
|
|
before and after calling
|
|
.Nm sglist_consume_uio
|
|
to determine the actual number of bytes processed.
|
|
.Ss Manipulating Scatter/Gather Lists
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_join
|
|
function appends physical address ranges from the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa second
|
|
onto
|
|
.Fa first
|
|
and then resets
|
|
.Fa second
|
|
to an empty list.
|
|
It returns zero on success or an error on failure.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_split
|
|
function splits an existing scatter/gather list into two lists.
|
|
The first
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
bytes described by the list
|
|
.Fa original
|
|
are moved to a new list
|
|
.Fa *head .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa original
|
|
describes a total address range that is smaller than
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
bytes,
|
|
then all of the address ranges will be moved to the new list at
|
|
.Fa *head
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa original
|
|
will be an empty list.
|
|
The caller may supply an existing scatter/gather list in
|
|
.Fa *head .
|
|
If so, the list must be empty.
|
|
Otherwise, the caller may set
|
|
.Fa *head
|
|
to
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
in which case a new scatter/gather list will be allocated.
|
|
In that case,
|
|
.Fa mflags
|
|
may be set to either
|
|
.Dv M_NOWAIT
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv M_WAITOK .
|
|
Note that since the
|
|
.Fa original
|
|
list is modified by this call, it must be a private list with no other
|
|
references.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_split
|
|
function returns zero on success or an error on failure.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_slice
|
|
function generates a new scatter/gather list from a sub-range of an existing
|
|
scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa original .
|
|
The sub-range to extract is specified by the
|
|
.Fa offset
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
parameters.
|
|
The new scatter/gather list is stored in
|
|
.Fa *slice .
|
|
As with
|
|
.Fa head
|
|
for
|
|
.Nm sglist_join ,
|
|
the caller may either provide an empty scatter/gather list,
|
|
or it may set
|
|
.Fa *slice
|
|
to
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
in which case
|
|
.Nm sglist_slice
|
|
will allocate a new list subject to
|
|
.Fa mflags .
|
|
Unlike
|
|
.Nm sglist_split ,
|
|
.Nm sglist_slice
|
|
does not modify
|
|
.Fa original
|
|
and does not require it to be a private list.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_split
|
|
function returns zero on success or an error on failure.
|
|
.Ss Miscellaneous Routines
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_reset
|
|
function clears the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg
|
|
so that it no longer maps any address ranges.
|
|
This can allow reuse of a single scatter/gather list object for multiple
|
|
requests.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_length
|
|
function returns the total length of the physical address ranges described
|
|
by the scatter/gather list
|
|
.Fa sg .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sglist_alloc ,
|
|
.Nm sglist_build ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm sglist_clone
|
|
functions return a new scatter/gather list on success or
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
