Jarkko Sakkinen March 6, 2022, 5:32 a.m. UTC
Sometimes you might want to use MAP_POPULATE to ask a device driver to
initialize the device memory in some specific manner. SGX driver can use
this to request more memory by issuing ENCLS[EAUG] x86 opcode for each
page in the address range.

Add f_ops->populate() with the same parameters as f_ops->mmap() and make
it conditionally called inside call_mmap(). Update call sites
accodingly.

As I have said many times before, don't add random boolean flags to
function arguments, as they provide no hint as to what they do at all.
When you read the code, you then have to go back and look up the
function definition here and see what exactly it means and the flow is
broken.

Make function names mean something obvious, for this, if it really is a
good idea to have this new flag (and I doubt it, but that's not my
call), then make this a mmap_region_populate() call to make it obvious
it is something different than the notmal mmap_region() call.

But as is, this is pretty horrid, don't you agree?

thanks,

I can create:

* mmap_region_populate()
* call_mmap_populate()

This would localize the changes and leave out those boolean parameters.

So can I conclude from this that in general having populate available for
device memory is something horrid, or just the implementation path?

That's the main reason why I made this RFC patch set, to get clear answer
to that question. I.e. if it is in general sense a bad idea, I'll just
create ioctl. If it is the implementation, I'll try to improve it.

Otherwise, I don't know whether or not it is good idea to include such
patch into the main SGX2 patch set. No means enforcibl tryy to push support
IO memory populate.

You haven't even attempted to explain what the problem is you're trying
to solve.  You've shown up with some terrible code and said "Hey, is
this a good idea".  No, no, it's not.

The problem is that in order to include memory to enclave, which is
essentially a reserved address range processes virtual address space
there's two steps into it:

1. Host side (kernel) does ENCLS[EAUG] to request a new page to be
   added to the enclave.
2. Enclave accepts request with ENCLU[EACCEPT] or ENCLU[EACCEPTCOPY].

In the current SGX2 patch set this taken care by the page fault
handler. I.e. the enclave calls ENCLU[EACCEPT] for an empty address
and the #PF handler then does EAUG for a single page.

So if you want to process a batch of pages this generates O(n)
round-trips.

So if there was a way pre-do a batch of EAUG's, that would allow
to load data to the enclave without causing page faults happening
constantly.

One solution for this simply add ioctl:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-sgx/YiLRBglTEbu8cHP9@iki.fi/T/#m195ec84bf85614a140abeee245c5118c22ace8f3

But in practice when you wanted to use it, you would setup the
parameters so that they match the mmap() range. So for pratical
user space API having mmap() take care of this would be much more
lean option.

For something like Graphene [1] the lazy #PF based option is probably
a way to go. For wasm runtime that we're doing in Enarx [2] we get better
performance by having something like this. I.e. we most of the time take
as much as we use.
