[PATCH v5 1/2] drivers/misc: sysgenid: add system generation id driver

[Adrian Catangiu]

- Background and problem

The System Generation ID feature is required in virtualized or
containerized environments by applications that work with local copies
or caches of world-unique data such as random values, uuids,
monotonically increasing counters, etc.
Such applications can be negatively affected by VM or container
snapshotting when the VM or container is either cloned or returned to
an earlier point in time.

Furthermore, simply finding out about a system generation change is
only the starting point of a process to renew internal states of
possibly multiple applications across the system. This process could
benefit from a driver that provides an interface through which
orchestration can be easily done.

- Solution

The System Generation ID is a simple concept meant to alleviate the
issue by providing a monotonically increasing u32 counter that changes
each time the VM or container is restored from a snapshot.

The `sysgenid` driver exposes a monotonic incremental System Generation
u32 counter via a char-dev FS interface that provides sync and async
SysGen counter updates notifications. It also provides SysGen counter
retrieval and confirmation mechanisms.

The counter starts from zero when the driver is initialized and
monotonically increments every time the system generation changes.

The `sysgenid` driver exports the `void sysgenid_bump_generation()`
symbol which can be used by backend drivers to drive system generation
changes based on hardware events.
System generation changes can also be driven by userspace software
through a dedicated driver ioctl.

Userspace applications or libraries can then (a)synchronously consume
the system generation counter through the provided FS interface to make
any necessary internal adjustments following a system generation
update.

+SYSGENID
+========
+
+The System Generation ID feature is required in virtualized or
+containerized environments by applications that work with local copies
+or caches of world-unique data such as random values, UUIDs,
+monotonically increasing counters, etc.
+Such applications can be negatively affected by VM or container
+snapshotting when the VM or container is either cloned or returned to
+an earlier point in time.
+
+The System Generation ID is a simple concept meant to alleviate the
+issue by providing a monotonically increasing counter that changes
+each time the VM or container is restored from a snapshot.
+The driver for it lives at ``drivers/misc/sysgenid.c``.
+
+The ``sysgenid`` driver exposes a monotonic incremental System
+Generation u32 counter via a char-dev FS interface accessible through
+``/dev/sysgenid`` that provides sync and async SysGen counter update
+notifications. It also provides SysGen counter retrieval and
+confirmation mechanisms.
+
+The counter starts from zero when the driver is initialized and
+monotonically increments every time the system generation changes.
+
+The ``sysgenid`` driver exports the ``void sysgenid_bump_generation()``
+symbol which can be used by backend drivers to drive system generation
+changes based on hardware events.
+System generation changes can also be driven by userspace software
+through a dedicated driver ioctl.
+
+Userspace applications or libraries can (a)synchronously consume the
+system generation counter through the provided FS interface, to make
+any necessary internal adjustments following a system generation update.
+
+Driver FS interface:
+
+``open()``:
+  When the device is opened, a copy of the current Sys-Gen-Id (counter)
+  is associated with the open file descriptor. The driver now tracks
+  this file as an independent *watcher*. The driver tracks how many
+  watchers are aware of the latest Sys-Gen-Id counter and how many of
+  them are *outdated*; outdated being those that have lived through
+  a Sys-Gen-Id change but not yet confirmed the new generation counter.
+
+``read()``:
+  Read is meant to provide the *new* system generation counter when a
+  generation change takes place. The read operation blocks until the
+  associated counter is no longer up to date, at which point the new
+  counter is provided/returned.
+  Nonblocking ``read()`` uses ``EAGAIN`` to signal that there is no
+  *new* counter value available. The generation counter is considered
+  *new* for each open file descriptor that hasn't confirmed the new
+  value following a generation change. Therefore, once a generation
+  change takes place, all ``read()`` calls will immediately return the
+  new generation counter and will continue to do so until the
+  new value is confirmed back to the driver through ``write()``.
+  Partial reads are not allowed - read buffer needs to be at least
+  32 bits in size.
+
+``write()``:
+  Write is used to confirm the up-to-date Sys Gen counter back to the
+  driver.
+  Following a VM generation change, all existing watchers are marked
+  as *outdated*. Each file descriptor will maintain the *outdated*
+  status until a ``write()`` confirms the up-to-date counter back to
+  the driver.
+  Partial writes are not allowed - write buffer should be exactly
+  32 bits in size.
+
+``poll()``:
+  Poll is implemented to allow polling for generation counter updates.
+  Such updates result in ``EPOLLIN`` polling status until the new
+  up-to-date counter is confirmed back to the driver through a
+  ``write()``.
+
+``ioctl()``:
+  The driver also adds support for waiting on open file descriptors
+  that haven't acknowledged a generation counter update, as well as a
+  mechanism for userspace to *force* a generation update:
+
+  - SYSGENID_WAIT_WATCHERS: blocks until there are no more *outdated*
+    watchers, or if a ``timeout`` argument is provided, until the
+    timeout expires.
+    If the current caller is *outdated* or a generation change happens
+    while waiting (thus making current caller *outdated*), the ioctl
+    returns ``-EINTR`` to signal the user to handle event and retry.
+  - SYSGENID_FORCE_GEN_UPDATE: forces a generation counter increment.
+    It takes a ``minimum-generation`` argument which represents the
+    minimum value the generation counter will be incremented to. For
+    example if current generation is ``5`` and ``SYSGENID_FORCE_GEN_UPDATE(8)``
+    is called, the generation counter will increment to ``8``.
+    This IOCTL can only be used by processes with CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE
+    or CAP_SYS_ADMIN capabilities.
+
+``mmap()``:
+  The driver supports ``PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED`` mmaps of a single page
+  in size. The first 4 bytes of the mapped page will contain an
+  up-to-date u32 copy of the system generation counter.
+  The mapped memory can be used as a low-latency generation counter
+  probe mechanism in critical sections - see examples.
+
+``close()``:
+  Removes the file descriptor as a system generation counter *watcher*.
+
+Example application workflows
+-----------------------------
+
+1) Watchdog thread simplified example::
+
+	void watchdog_thread_handler(int *thread_active)
+	{
+		unsigned int genid;
+		int fd = open("/dev/sysgenid", O_RDWR | O_CLOEXEC, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR);
+
+		do {
+			// read new gen ID - blocks until VM generation changes
+			read(fd, &genid, sizeof(genid));
+
+			// because of VM generation change, we need to rebuild world
+			reseed_app_env();
+
+			// confirm we're done handling gen ID update
+			write(fd, &genid, sizeof(genid));
+		} while (atomic_read(thread_active));
+
+		close(fd);
+	}
+
+2) ASYNC simplified example::
+
+	void handle_io_on_sysgenfd(int sysgenfd)
+	{
+		unsigned int genid;
+
+		// read new gen ID - we need it to confirm we've handled update
+		read(fd, &genid, sizeof(genid));
+
+		// because of VM generation change, we need to rebuild world
+		reseed_app_env();
+
+		// confirm we're done handling the gen ID update
+		write(fd, &genid, sizeof(genid));
+	}
+
+	int main() {
+		int epfd, sysgenfd;
+		struct epoll_event ev;
+
+		epfd = epoll_create(EPOLL_QUEUE_LEN);
+
+		sysgenfd = open("/dev/sysgenid",
+		               O_RDWR | O_CLOEXEC | O_NONBLOCK,
+		               S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR);
+
+		// register sysgenid for polling
+		ev.events = EPOLLIN;
+		ev.data.fd = sysgenfd;
+		epoll_ctl(epfd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, sysgenfd, &ev);
+
+		// register other parts of your app for polling
+		// ...
+
+		while (1) {
+			// wait for something to do...
+			int nfds = epoll_wait(epfd, events,
+				MAX_EPOLL_EVENTS_PER_RUN,
+				EPOLL_RUN_TIMEOUT);
+			if (nfds < 0) die("Error in epoll_wait!");
+
+			// for each ready fd
+			for(int i = 0; i < nfds; i++) {
+				int fd = events[i].data.fd;
+
+				if (fd == sysgenfd)
+					handle_io_on_sysgenfd(sysgenfd);
+				else
+					handle_some_other_part_of_the_app(fd);
+			}
+		}
+
+		return 0;
+	}
+
+3) Mapped memory polling simplified example::
+
+	/*
+	 * app/library function that provides cached secrets
+	 */
+	char * safe_cached_secret(app_data_t *app)
+	{
+		char *secret;
+		volatile unsigned int *const genid_ptr = get_sysgenid_mapping(app);
+	again:
+		secret = __cached_secret(app);
+
+		if (unlikely(*genid_ptr != app->cached_genid)) {
+			app->cached_genid = *genid_ptr;
+			barrier();
+
+			// rebuild world then confirm the genid update (thru write)
+			rebuild_caches(app);
+
+			ack_sysgenid_update(app);
+
+			goto again;
+		}
+
+		return secret;
+	}
+
+4) Orchestrator simplified example::
+
+	/*
+	 * orchestrator - manages multiple applications and libraries used by
+	 * a service and tries to make sure all sensitive components gracefully
+	 * handle VM generation changes.
+	 * Following function is called on detection of a VM generation change.
+	 */
+	int handle_sysgen_update(int sysgen_fd, unsigned int new_gen_id)
+	{
+		// pause until all components have handled event
+		pause_service();
+
+		// confirm *this* watcher as up-to-date
+		write(sysgen_fd, &new_gen_id, sizeof(unsigned int));
+
+		// wait for all *others* for at most 5 seconds.
+		ioctl(sysgen_fd, VMGENID_WAIT_WATCHERS, 5000);
+
+		// all applications on the system have rebuilt worlds
+		resume_service();
+	}
