From: Liang Li <liang.z.li@xxxxxxxxx>
The implementation of the current virtio-balloon is not very
efficient, because the pages are transferred to the host one by one.
Here is the breakdown of the time in percentage spent on each
step of the balloon inflating process (inflating 7GB of an 8GB
idle guest).
1) allocating pages (6.5%)
2) sending PFNs to host (68.3%)
3) address translation (6.1%)
4) madvise (19%)
It takes about 4126ms for the inflating process to complete.
The above profiling shows that the bottlenecks are stage 2)
and stage 4).
This patch optimizes step 2) by transfering pages to the host in
chunks. A chunk consists of guest physically continuous pages, and
it is offered to the host via a base PFN (i.e. the start PFN of
those physically continuous pages) and the size (i.e. the total
number of the pages). A normal chunk is formated as below:
-----------------------------------------------
| Base (52 bit) | Size (12 bit)|
-----------------------------------------------
For large size chunks, an extended chunk format is used:
-----------------------------------------------
| Base (64 bit) |
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
| Size (64 bit) |
-----------------------------------------------
By doing so, step 4) can also be optimized by doing address
translation and madvise() in chunks rather than page by page.
This optimization requires the negotation of a new feature bit,
VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_CHUNK_TRANSFER.
With this new feature, the above ballooning process takes ~590ms
resulting in an improvement of ~85%.
TODO: optimize stage 1) by allocating/freeing a chunk of pages
instead of a single page each time.
