The CephFS kernel driver forgets to set the filesystem magic signature in its superblock. As a result, IMA policy rules based on fsmagic matching do not apply as intended. This causes a major performance regression in Talos Linux [1] when mounting CephFS volumes, such as when deploying Rook Ceph [2]. Talos Linux ships a hardened kernel with the following IMA policy (irrelevant lines omitted): [...] dont_measure fsmagic=0xc36400 # CEPH_SUPER_MAGIC [...] measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=^MAY_READ euid=0 measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=^MAY_READ uid=0 [...] Currently, IMA compares 0xc36400 == 0x0 for CephFS files, resulting in all files opened with O_RDONLY or O_RDWR getting measured with SHA512 on every open(2): 10 69990c87e8af323d47e2d6ae4... ima-ng sha512:<hash> /data/cephfs/test-file Since O_WRONLY is rare, this results in an order of magnitude lower performance than expected for practically all file operations. Properly setting CEPH_SUPER_MAGIC in the CephFS superblock resolves the regression. Tests performed on a 3x replicated Ceph v19.3.0 cluster across three i5-7200U nodes each equipped with one Micron 7400 MAX M.2 disk (BlueStore) and Gigabit ethernet, on Talos Linux v1.10.2: FS-Mark 3.3 Test: 500 Files, Empty Files/s > Higher Is Better 6.12.27-talos . 16.6 |==== +twelho patch . 208.4 |==================================================== FS-Mark 3.3 Test: 500 Files, 1KB Size Files/s > Higher Is Better 6.12.27-talos . 15.6 |======= +twelho patch . 118.6 |==================================================== FS-Mark 3.3 Test: 500 Files, 32 Sub Dirs, 1MB Size Files/s > Higher Is Better 6.12.27-talos . 12.7 |=============== +twelho patch . 44.7 |===================================================== IO500 [3] 2fcd6d6 results (benchmarks within variance omitted): | IO500 benchmark | 6.12.27-talos | +twelho patch | Speedup | |-------------------|----------------|----------------|-----------| | mdtest-easy-write | 0.018524 kIOPS | 1.135027 kIOPS | 6027.33 % | | mdtest-hard-write | 0.018498 kIOPS | 0.973312 kIOPS | 5161.71 % | | ior-easy-read | 0.064727 GiB/s | 0.155324 GiB/s | 139.97 % | | mdtest-hard-read | 0.018246 kIOPS | 0.780800 kIOPS | 4179.29 % | This applies outside of synthetic benchmarks as well, for example, the time to rsync a 55 MiB directory with ~12k of mostly small files drops from an unusable 10m5s to a reasonable 26s (23x the throughput).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
