selftests/bpf: Check that JMP32 pointer vs zero jumps are not predictedgrafted
Add jmp32_ptr_vs_zero_jne: the fall-through of the 32-bit compare, which
the verifier used to skip, contains an out of bounds map value access,
hence w/o the previous patch the program is accepted. See previous patch
for detailed description.

After being mapped, the remote block devices can be accessed +on the client side as local block devices. + +I/O is transferred between client and server by the RTRS transport +modules. The administration of RNBD and RTRS modules is done via +sysfs entries. + +Requirements +------------ + + RTRS kernel modules + +Quick Start +----------- + +Server side: + # modprobe rnbd_server + +Client side: + # modprobe rnbd_client + # echo "sessname=blya path=ip:10.50.100.66 device_path=/dev/ram0" > \ + /sys/devices/virtual/rnbd-client/ctl/map_device + + Where "sessname=" is a session name, a string to identify the session + on client and on server sides; "path=" is a destination IP address or + a pair of a source and a destination IPs, separated by comma. Multiple + "path=" options can be specified in order to use multipath (see RTRS + description for details); "device_path=" is the block device to be + mapped from the server side. After the session to the server machine is + established, the mapped device will appear on the client side under + /dev/rnbd<N>. + + +RNBD-Server Module Parameters +============================= + +dev_search_path +--------------- + +When a device is mapped from the client, the server generates the path +to the block device on the server side by concatenating dev_search_path +and the "device_path" that was specified in the map_device operation. + +The default dev_search_path is: "/". + +dev_search_path option can also contain %SESSNAME% in order to provide +different device namespaces for different sessions. See "device_path" +option for details. + +============================ +Protocol (rnbd/rnbd-proto.h) +============================ + +1. Before mapping first device from a given server, client sends an +RNBD_MSG_SESS_INFO to the server. Server responds with +RNBD_MSG_SESS_INFO_RSP. Currently the messages only contain the protocol +version for backward compatibility. + +2. Client requests to open a device by sending RNBD_MSG_OPEN message. This +contains the path to the device and access mode (read-only or writable). +Server responds to the message with RNBD_MSG_OPEN_RSP. This contains +a 32 bit device id to be used for IOs and device "geometry" related +information: side, max_hw_sectors, etc. + +3. Client attaches RNBD_MSG_IO to each IO message send to a device. This +message contains device id, provided by server in his rnbd_msg_open_rsp, +sector to be accessed, read-write flags and bi_size. + +4. Client closes a device by sending RNBD_MSG_CLOSE which contains only the +device id provided by the server. + +========================================= +Contributors List(in alphabetical order) +========================================= +Danil Kipnis <danil.kipnis@profitbricks.com> +Fabian Holler <mail@fholler.de> +Guoqing Jiang <guoqing.jiang@cloud.ionos.com> +Jack Wang <jinpu.wang@profitbricks.com> +Kleber Souza <kleber.souza@profitbricks.com> +Lutz Pogrell <lutz.pogrell@cloud.ionos.com> +Milind Dumbare <Milind.dumbare@gmail.com> +Roman Penyaev <roman.penyaev@profitbricks.com> +Swapnil Ingle <ingleswapnil@gmail.com> |
