  • Smatch complains that we might not initialize "queue". The issue is
    callers like setup_vq() from virtio_pci_modern.c where "num" could be
    something like 2 and "vring_align" is 64. In that case, vring_size() is
    less than PAGE_SIZE. It won't happen in real life, but we're getting
    the value of "num" from a register so it's not really possible to tell
    what value it holds with static analysis.

    Let's just silence the warning.

  • Add a new field, VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_AVAIL, to virtio_balloon memory
    statistics protocol, corresponding to 'Available' in /proc/meminfo.

    It indicates to the hypervisor how big the balloon can be inflated
    without pushing the guest system to swap.

  • The virtio balloon statistics are not updated when the balloon
    is being resized. But it seems that both tasks could be done
    in parallel.

    stats_handle_request() updates the statistics in the balloon
    structure and then communicates with the host.

    update_balloon_stats() calls all_vm_events() that just reads
    some per-CPU variables. The values might change during and
    after the call but it is expected and happens even without
    this patch.

    update_balloon_stats() also calls si_meminfo(). It is a bit
    more complex function. It too just reads some variables and
    looks lock-less safe. In each case, it seems to be called
    lock-less on several similar locations, e.g. from post_status()
    in dm_thread_func(), or from vmballoon_send_get_target().

    The communication with the host is done via a separate virtqueue,
    see vb->stats_vq vs. vb->inflate_vq and vb->deflate_vq. Therefore
    it could be used in parallel with fill_balloon() and leak_balloon().

    This patch splits the existing work into two pieces. One is for
    updating the balloon stats. The other is for resizing of the balloon.
    It seems that they can be proceed in parallel without any
    extra locking.

  • This patch moves the deferred work from the "vballoon" kthread into a
    system freezable workqueue.

    We do not need to maintain and run a dedicated kthread. Also the event
    driven workqueues API makes the logic much easier. Especially, we do
    not longer need an own wait queue, wait function, and freeze point.

    The conversion is pretty straightforward. One cycle of the main loop
    is put into a work. The work is queued instead of waking the kthread.

    fill_balloon() and leak_balloon() have a limit for the amount of modified
    pages. The work re-queues itself when necessary. For this, we make
    fill_balloon() to return the number of really modified pages.
    Note that leak_balloon() already did this.

    virtballoon_restore() queues the work only when really needed.

    The only complication is that we need to prevent queuing the work
    when the balloon is being removed. It was easier before because the
    kthread simply removed itself from the wait queue. We need an
    extra boolean and spin lock now.

    My initial idea was to use a dedicated workqueue. Michael S. Tsirkin
    suggested using a system one. Tejun Heo confirmed that the system
    workqueue has a pretty high concurrency level (256) by default.
    Therefore we need not be afraid of too long blocking.

  • virtio_ring currently sends the device (usually a hypervisor)
    physical addresses of its I/O buffers. This is okay when DMA
    addresses and physical addresses are the same thing, but this isn't
    always the case. For example, this never works on Xen guests, and
    it is likely to fail if a physical "virtio" device ever ends up
    behind an IOMMU or swiotlb.

    The immediate use case for me is to enable virtio on Xen guests.
    For that to work, we need vring to support DMA address translation
    as well as a corresponding change to virtio_pci or to another
    driver.

  • checkpatch.pl wants arrays of strings declared as follows:

    static const char * const names[] = { "vq-1", "vq-2", "vq-3" };

    Currently the find_vqs() function takes a const char *names[] argument
    so passing checkpatch.pl's const char * const names[] results in a
    compiler error due to losing the second const.

    This patch adjusts the find_vqs() prototype and updates all virtio
    transports. This makes it possible for virtio_balloon.c, virtio_input.c,

  • During my compaction-related stuff, I encountered a bug
    with ballooning.

    With repeated inflating and deflating cycle, guest memory(
    ie, cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal) is decreased and
    couldn't be recovered.

    The reason is balloon_lock doesn't cover release_pages_balloon
    so struct virtio_balloon fields could be overwritten by race
    of fill_balloon(e,g, vb->*pfns could be critical).

    This patch fixes it in my test.

  • Improves cacheline transfer flow of available ring header.

    Virtqueues are implemented as a pair of rings, one producer->consumer
    avail ring and one consumer->producer used ring; preceding the
    avail ring in memory are two contiguous u16 fields -- avail->flags
    and avail->idx. A producer posts work by writing to avail->idx and
    a consumer reads avail->idx.

    The flags and idx fields only need to be written by a producer CPU
    and only read by a consumer CPU; when the producer and consumer are
    running on different CPUs and the virtio_ring code is structured to
    only have source writes/sink reads, we can continuously transfer the
    avail header cacheline between 'M' states between cores. This flow
    optimizes core -> core bandwidth on certain CPUs.

    (see: "Software Optimization Guide for AMD Family 15h Processors",
    Section 11.6; similar language appears in the 10h guide and should
    apply to CPUs w/ exclusive caches, using LLC as a transfer cache)

    Unfortunately the existing virtio_ring code issued reads to the
    avail->idx and read-modify-writes to avail->flags on the producer.

    This change shadows the flags and index fields in producer memory;
    the vring code now reads from the shadows and only ever writes to
    avail->flags and avail->idx, allowing the cacheline to transfer
    core -> core optimally.

    In a concurrent version of vring_bench, the time required for
    10,000,000 buffer checkout/returns was reduced by ~2% (average
    across many runs) on an AMD Piledriver (15h) CPU:

    (w/o shadowing):
    Performance counter stats for './vring_bench':
    5,451,082,016 L1-dcache-loads
    ...
    2.221477739 seconds time elapsed

    5,405,701,361 L1-dcache-loads
    ...
    2.168405376 seconds time elapsed

    The further away (in a NUMA sense) virtio producers and consumers are
    from each other, the more we expect to benefit. Physical implementations
    of virtio devices and implementations of virtio where the consumer polls
    vring avail indexes (vhost) should also benefit.

  • The virtio core uses a static ida named virtio_index_ida for
    assigning index numbers to virtio devices during registration.
    The ida core may allocate some internal idr cache layers and
    an ida bitmap upon any ida allocation, and all these layers are
    truely freed only upon the ida destruction. The virtio_index_ida
    is not destroyed at present, leading to a memory leak when using
    the virtio core as a module and atleast one virtio device is
    registered and unregistered.

    Fix this by invoking ida_destroy() in the virtio core module
    exit.

  • Balloon device is frequently used as a mean of cooperative memory control
    in between guest and host to manage memory overcommitment. This is the
    typical case for any hosting workload when KVM guest is provided for
    end-user.

    Though there is a problem in this setup. The end-user and hosting provider
    have signed SLA agreement in which some amount of memory is guaranted for
    the guest. The good thing is that this memory will be given to the guest
    when the guest will really need it (f.e. with OOM in guest and with
    VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM configuration flag set). The bad thing
    is that end-user does not know this.

    Balloon by default reduce the amount of memory exposed to the end-user
    each time when the page is stolen from guest or returned back by using
    adjust_managed_page_count and thus /proc/meminfo shows reduced amount
    of memory.

    Fortunately the solution is simple, we should just avoid to call
    adjust_managed_page_count with VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM set.

  • Added the match table and pointers for ACPI probing to the driver.

    This uses the same identifier for virt devices as being used for qemu
    ARM64 ACPI support.

  • Pull virtio/vhost cross endian support from Michael Tsirkin:
    "I have just queued some more bugfix patches today but none fix
    regressions and none are related to these ones, so it looks like a
    good time for a merge for -rc1.

    The motivation for this is support for legacy BE guests on the new LE
    hosts. There are two redeeming properties that made me merge this:

    - It's a trivial amount of code: since we wrap host/guest accesses
    anyway, almost all of it is well hidden from drivers.

    - Sane platforms would never set flags like VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY,
    and when it's clear, there's zero overhead (as some point it was
    tested by compiling with and without the patches, got the same
    stripped binary).

    Maybe we could create a Kconfig symbol to enforce the second point:
    prevent people from enabling it eg on x86. I will look into this"

  • Pull module updates from Rusty Russell:
    "Main excitement here is Peter Zijlstra's lockless rbtree optimization
    to speed module address lookup. He found some abusers of the module
    lock doing that too.

    A little bit of parameter work here too; including Dan Streetman's
    breaking up the big param mutex so writing a parameter can load
    another module (yeah, really). Unfortunately that broke the usual
    suspects, !CONFIG_MODULES and !CONFIG_SYSFS, so those fixes were
    appended too"

  • Most code already uses consts for the struct kernel_param_ops,
    sweep the kernel for the last offending stragglers. Other than
    include/linux/moduleparam.h and kernel/params.c all other changes
    were generated with the following Coccinelle SmPL patch. Merge
    conflicts between trees can be handled with Coccinelle.

    In the future git could get Coccinelle merge support to deal with
    patch --> fail --> grammar --> Coccinelle --> new patch conflicts
    automatically for us on patches where the grammar is available and
    the patch is of high confidence. Consider this a feature request.
