2012-09-28virtio: add help to CONFIG_VIRTIO option.Gravatar Rusty Russell 1-2/+4
Trying to enable a virtio driver (eg CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK) is painful because it depends on CONFIG_VIRTIO. CONFIG_VIRTIO doesn't tell you how to turn it on (it's selected from anything which provides a virtio bus). This patch at least adds some documentation, visible in menuconfig, as a hint.

2012-09-28virtio: support reserved vqsGravatar Michael S. Tsirkin 2-1/+7
virtio network device multiqueue support reserves vq 3 for future use (useful both for future extensions and to make it pretty - this way receive vqs have even and transmit - odd numbers). Make it possible to skip initialization for specific vq numbers by specifying NULL for name. Document this usage as well as (existing) NULL callback. Drivers using this not coded up yet, so I simply tested with virtio-pci and verified that this patch does not break existing drivers. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2012-09-28virtio: introduce an API to set affinity for a virtqueueGravatar Jason Wang 1-0/+46
Sometimes, virtio device need to configure irq affinity hint to maximize the performance. Instead of just exposing the irq of a virtqueue, this patch introduce an API to set the affinity for a virtqueue. The api is best-effort, the affinity hint may not be set as expected due to platform support, irq sharing or irq type. Currently, only pci method were implemented and we set the affinity according to: - if device uses INTX, we just ignore the request - if device has per vq vector, we force the affinity hint - if the virtqueues share MSI, make the affinity OR over all affinities requested Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2012-07-20[SCSI] virtio-scsi: Add vdrv->scan for post VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK LUN ↵Gravatar Nicholas Bellinger 1-1/+4
scanning This patch changes virtio-scsi to use a new virtio_driver->scan() callback so that scsi_scan_host() can be properly invoked once virtio_dev_probe() has set add_status(dev, VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK) to signal active virtio-ring operation, instead of from within virtscsi_probe(). This fixes a bug where SCSI LUN scanning for both virtio-scsi-raw and virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost setups was happening before VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK had been set, causing VIRTIO_SCSI_S_BAD_TARGET to occur. This fixes a bug with virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost where LUN scan was not detecting LUNs. Tested with virtio-scsi-raw + virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost w/ IBLOCK on 3.5-rc2 code.

2012-07-09virtio-balloon: fix add/get API useGravatar Michael S. Tsirkin 1-14/+10
Since ee7cd8981e15bcb365fc762afe3fc47b8242f630 'virtio: expose added descriptors immediately.', in virtio balloon virtqueue_get_buf might now run concurrently with virtqueue_kick. I audited both and this seems safe in practice but this is not guaranteed by the API. Additionally, a spurious interrupt might in theory make virtqueue_get_buf run in parallel with virtqueue_add_buf, which is racy. While we might try to protect against spurious callbacks it's easier to fix the driver: balloon seems to be the only one (mis)using the API like this, so let's just fix balloon.

2012-04-15virtio_balloon: fix handling of PAGE_SIZE != 4kGravatar Michael S. Tsirkin 1-10/+41
As reported by David Gibson, current code handles PAGE_SIZE != 4k completely wrong which can lead to guest memory corruption errors: - page_to_balloon_pfn is wrong: e.g. on system with 64K page size it gives the same pfn value for 16 different pages. - we also need to convert back to linux pfns when we free. - for each linux page we need to tell host about multiple balloon pages, but code only adds one pfn to the array.

2012-04-15virtio_balloon: Fix endian bugGravatar David Gibson 1-2/+5
Although virtio config space fields are usually in guest-native endian, the spec for the virtio balloon device explicitly states that both fields in its config space are little-endian.

2012-03-01virtio: balloon: leak / fill balloon across S4Gravatar Amit Shah 1-11/+22
commit e562966dbaf49e7804097cd991e5d3a8934fc148 added support for S4 to the balloon driver. The freeze function did nothing to free the pages, since reclaiming the pages from the host to immediately give them back (if S4 was successful) seemed wasteful. Also, if S4 wasn't successful, the guest would have to re-fill the balloon. On restore, the pages were supposed to be marked freed and the free page counters were incremented to reflect the balloon was totally deflated. However, this wasn't done right. The pages that were earlier taken away from the guest during a balloon inflation operation were just shown as used pages after a successful restore from S4. Just a fancy way of leaking lots of memory. Instead of trying that, just leak the balloon on freeze and fill it on restore/thaw paths. This works properly now. The optimisation to not leak can be added later on after a bit of refactoring of the code. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2012-01-12virtio: balloon: Add freeze, restore handlers to support S4Gravatar Amit Shah 1-0/+47
Handling balloon hibernate / restore is tricky. If the balloon was inflated before going into the hibernation state, upon resume, the host will not have any memory of that. Any pages that were passed on to the host earlier would most likely be invalid, and the host will have to re-balloon to the previous value to get in the pre-hibernate state. So the only sane thing for the guest to do here is to discard all the pages that were put in the balloon. When to discard the pages is the next question. One solution is to deflate the balloon just before writing the image to the disk (in the freeze() PM callback). However, asking for pages from the host just to discard them immediately after seems wasteful of resources. Hence, it makes sense to do this by just fudging our counters soon after wakeup. This means we don't deflate the balloon before sleep, and also don't put unnecessary pressure on the host. This also helps in the thaw case: if the freeze fails for whatever reason, the balloon should continue to remain in the inflated state. This was tested by issuing 'swapoff -a' and trying to go into the S4 state. That fails, and the balloon stays inflated, as expected. Both the host and the guest are happy. Finally, in the restore() callback, we empty the list of pages that were previously given off to the host, add the appropriate number of pages to the totalram_pages counter, reset the num_pages counter to 0, and all is fine. As a last step, delete the vqs on the freeze callback to prepare for hibernation, and re-create them in the restore and thaw callbacks to resume normal operation. The kthread doesn't race with any operations here, since it's frozen before the freeze() call and is thawed after the thaw() and restore() callbacks, so we're safe with that.

2012-01-12virtio: expose added descriptors immediately.Gravatar Rusty Russell 1-6/+14
A virtio driver does virtqueue_add_buf() multiple times before finally calling virtqueue_kick(); previously we only exposed the added buffers in the virtqueue_kick() call. This means we don't need a memory barrier in virtqueue_add_buf(), but it reduces concurrency as the device (ie. host) can't see the buffers until the kick. In the unusual (but now possible) case where a driver does add_buf() and get_buf() without doing a kick, we do need to insert one before our counter wraps. Otherwise we could wrap num_added, and later on not realize that we have passed the marker where we should have kicked. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2012-01-12virtio: harsher barriers for rpmsg.Gravatar Rusty Russell 3-17/+25
We were cheating with our barriers; using the smp ones rather than the real device ones. That was fine, until rpmsg came along, which is used to talk to a real device (a non-SMP CPU). Unfortunately, just putting back the real barriers (reverting d57ed95d) causes a performance regression on virtio-pci. In particular, Amos reports netbench's TCP_RR over virtio_net CPU utilization increased up to 35% while throughput went down by up to 14%. By comparison, this branch is in the noise.

2011-11-24virtio-pci: make reset operation saferGravatar Michael S. Tsirkin 1-0/+18
virtio pci device reset actually just does an I/O write, which in PCI is really posted, that is it can complete on CPU before the device has received it. Further, interrupts might have been pending on another CPU, so device callback might get invoked after reset. This conflicts with how drivers use reset, which is typically: reset unregister a callback running after reset completed can race with unregister, potentially leading to use after free bugs. Fix by flushing out the write, and flushing pending interrupts. This assumes that device is never reset from its vq/config callbacks, or in parallel with being added/removed, document this assumption. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

For example, on driver removal or hot-unplug, virtio_pci_release_dev is called before virtio_pci_remove. We then might get a crash as virtio_pci_remove tries to use the device freed by virtio_pci_release_dev.

Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections. The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu. This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible (and neat!) for virtualization users now. Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.

2011-05-30virtio: add api for delayed callbacksGravatar Michael S. Tsirkin 1-0/+27
Add an API that tells the other side that callbacks should be delayed until a lot of work has been done. Implement using the new event_idx feature. Note: it might seem advantageous to let the drivers ask for a callback after a specific capacity has been reached. However, as a single head can free many entries in the descriptor table, we don't really have a clue about capacity until get_buf is called. The API is the simplest to implement at the moment, we'll see what kind of hints drivers can pass when there's more than one user of the feature. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
