[PATCH v4 00/18] IOMMUFD Dirty Tracking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Presented herewith is a series that extends IOMMUFD to have IOMMU
hardware support for dirty bit in the IOPTEs.

Today, AMD Milan (or more recent) supports it while ARM SMMUv3.2
alongside VT-D rev3.x also do support.  One intended use-case (but not
restricted!) is to support Live Migration with SR-IOV, specially useful
for live migrateable PCI devices that can't supply its own dirty
tracking hardware blocks amongst others.

At a quick glance, IOMMUFD lets the userspace create the IOAS with a
set of a IOVA ranges mapped to some physical memory composing an IO
pagetable. This is then created via HWPT_ALLOC or attached to a
particular device/hwpt, consequently creating the IOMMU domain and share
a common IO page table representing the endporint DMA-addressable guest
address space. In IOMMUFD Dirty tracking (since v2 of the series) it
will require via the HWPT_ALLOC model only, as opposed to simpler
autodomains model.

The result is an hw_pagetable which represents the
iommu_domain which will be directly manipulated. The IOMMUFD UAPI,
and the iommu/iommufd kAPI are then extended to provide:

1) Enforcement that only devices with dirty tracking support are attached
to an IOMMU domain, to cover the case where this isn't all homogenous in
the platform. While initially this is more aimed at possible heterogenous nature
of ARM while x86 gets future proofed, should any such ocasion occur.

The device dirty tracking enforcement on attach_dev is made whether the
dirty_ops are set or not. Given that attach always checks for dirty
ops and IOMMU_CAP_DIRTY, while writing this it almost wanted this to
move to upper layer but semantically iommu driver should do the
checking.

2) Toggling of Dirty Tracking on the iommu_domain. We model as the most
common case of changing hardware translation control structures dynamically
(x86) while making it easier to have an always-enabled mode. In the
RFCv1, the ARM specific case is suggested to be always enabled instead of
having to enable the per-PTE DBM control bit (what I previously called
"range tracking"). Here, setting/clearing tracking means just clearing the
dirty bits at start. The 'real' tracking of whether dirty
tracking is enabled is stored in the IOMMU driver, hence no new
fields are added to iommufd pagetable structures, except for the
iommu_domain dirty ops part via adding a dirty_ops field to
iommu_domain. We use that too for IOMMUFD to know if dirty tracking
is supported and toggleable without having iommu drivers replicate said
checks.

3) Add a capability probing for dirty tracking, leveraging the
per-device iommu_capable() and adding a IOMMU_CAP_DIRTY. It extends
the GET_HW_INFO ioctl which takes a device ID to return some generic
capabilities *in addition*. Possible values enumarated by `enum
iommufd_hw_capabilities`.

4) Read the I/O PTEs and marshal its dirtyiness into a bitmap. The bitmap
indexes on a page_size basis the IOVAs that got written by the device.
While performing the marshalling also drivers need to clear the dirty bits
from IOPTE and allow the kAPI caller to batch the much needed IOTLB flush.
There's no copy of bitmaps to userspace backed memory, all is zerocopy
based to not add more cost to the iommu driver IOPT walker. This shares
functionality with VFIO device dirty tracking via the IOVA bitmap APIs. So
far this is a test-and-clear kind of interface given that the IOPT walk is
going to be expensive. In addition this also adds the ability to read dirty
bit info without clearing the PTE info. This is meant to cover the
unmap-and-read-dirty use-case, and avoid the second IOTLB flush.

The only dependency is:
* Have domain_alloc_user() API with flags [2] already queued (iommufd/for-next).

The series is organized as follows:

* Patches 1-4: Takes care of the iommu domain operations to be added.
The idea is to abstract iommu drivers from any idea of how bitmaps are
stored or propagated back to the caller, as well as allowing
control/batching over IOTLB flush. So there's a data structure and an
helper that only tells the upper layer that an IOVA range got dirty.
This logic is shared with VFIO and it's meant to walking the bitmap
user memory, and kmap-ing plus setting bits as needed. IOMMU driver
just has an idea of a 'dirty bitmap state' and recording an IOVA as
dirty.

* Patches 5-9, 13-18: Adds the UAPIs for IOMMUFD, and selftests. The
selftests cover some corner cases on boundaries handling of the bitmap
and various bitmap sizes that exercise. I haven't included huge IOVA
ranges to avoid risking the selftests failing to execute due to OOM
issues of mmaping big buffers.

* Patches 10-11: AMD IOMMU implementation, particularly on those having
HDSup support. Tested with a Qemu amd-iommu with HDSUp emulated[0]. And
tested with live migration with VFs (but with IOMMU dirty tracking).

* Patches 12: Intel IOMMU rev3.x+ implementation. Tested with a Qemu
based intel-iommu vIOMMU with SSADS emulation support[0].

On AMD/Intel I have tested this with emulation and then live migration in
AMD hardware; 

The qemu iommu emulation bits are to increase coverage of this code and
hopefully make this more broadly available for fellow contributors/devs,
old version[1]; it uses Yi's 2 commits to have hw_info() supported (still
needs a bit of cleanup) on top of a recent Zhenzhong series of IOMMUFD
QEMU bringup work: see here[0]. It includes IOMMUFD dirty tracking for
Live migration and with live migration tested. I won't be exactly
following up a v2 of QEMU patches until IOMMUFD tracking lands.

Feedback or any comments are very much appreciated.

Thanks!
        Joao

Changes since v3[7]:
* Consolidate previous patch 9 and 10 into a single patch,
while removing iommufd_dirty_bitmap structure to instead use
the UAPI defined structure iommu_hwpt_get_dirty_iova and
pass around internally in iommufd.
* Iterate over areas from within the IOVA bitmap iterator
* Drop check for specific flags in hw_pagetable
* Drop assignment that calculates iopt_alignment, to instead
use iopt_alignment directly
* Move IOVA bitmap into iommufd and introduce IOMMUFD_DRIVER
bool kconfig which designates the usage of dirty tracking related
bitmaps (i.e. VFIO and IOMMU drivers right now).
* Update IOVA bitmap header files to account for IOMMUFD_DRIVER
being disabled
* Sort new IOMMUFD ioctls accordingly
* Move IOVA bitmap symbols to IOMMUFD namespace and update its
users by importing new namespace (new patch 3)
* Remove AMD IOMMU kernel log feature printing from series
* Remove struct amd_iommu from do_iommu_domain_alloc() function
and derive it from within do_iommu_domain_alloc().
* Consolidate pte_test_dirty() and pte_test_and_clear_dirty()
by passing flags and deciding whether to test or test_and_clear.
* Add a comment on top of the -EINVAL attach_device() failure when
dirty tracking is enforcement but IOMMU does not support dirty tracking
* Add Reviewed-by given by Suravee
* Select IOMMUFD_DRIVER if IOMMUFD is enabled on supported IOMMU drivers
* Remove spurious rcu_read_{,un}lock() from Intel/AMD iommus
* Fix unwinding in dirty tracking set failure case in intel-iommu
* Avoid unnecesary locking when checking dmar_domain::dirty_tracking
* Rename intel_iommu_slads_supported() to a slads_supported() macro
following intel-iommu style
* Change the XOR check into a == in set_dirty_tracking iommu op
* Consolidate PTE test or test-and-clear into single helper
* Improve intel_pasid_setup_dirty_tracking() to: use rate limited printk;
avoid unnecessary update if state is already the desired one;
do a clflush on non-coherent devices; remove the qi_flush_piotlb(); and
fail on unsupported pgtts.
* Remove the first_level support and always fail domain_alloc_user on those
cases with it being no use case ATM. Doing so lets us remove some code
for such handling in set_dirty_tracking
* Error out the pasid device attach when dirty tracking is enforced
as we don't support that either.
* Reorganize the series to have selftests at the end, and core/driver
enablement first.

Changes since RFCv2[4]:
* Testing has always occured on the new code, but now it has seen
Live Migration coverage with extra QEMU work on AMD hardware.
* General commit message improvements
* Remove spurious headers in selftests
* Exported some symbols to actually allow things to build when IOMMUFD
is built as a module. (Alex Williamson)
* Switch the enforcing to be done on IOMMU domain allocation via
domain_alloc_user (Jason, Robin, Lu Baolu)
* Removed RCU series from Lu Baolu (Jason)
* Switch set_dirty/read_dirty/clear_dirty to down_read() (Jason)
* Make sure it check for area::pages (Jason)
* Move clearing dirties before set dirty a helper (Jason)
* Avoid breaking IOMMUFD selftests UAPI (Jason)
* General improvements to testing
* Add coverage to new out_capabilities support in HW_INFO.
* Address Shameer/Robin comments in smmu-v3 (code is on a branch[6])
  - Properly check for FEAT_HD together with COHERENCY
  - Remove the pgsize_bitmap check
  - Limit the quirk set to s1 pgtbl_cfg.
  - Fix commit message on dubious sentence on DBM usecase

Changes since RFCv1[5]:
Too many changes but the major items were:
* Majorirty of the changes from Jason/Kevin/Baolu/Suravee:
- Improve structure and rework most commit messages
- Drop all of the VFIO-compat series
- Drop the unmap-get-dirty API
- Tie this to HWPT only, no more autodomains handling;
- Rework the UAPI widely by:
  - Having a IOMMU_DEVICE_GET_CAPS which allows to fetching capabilities
    of devices, specifically test dirty tracking support for an individual
    device
  - Add a enforce-dirty flag to the IOMMU domain via HWPT_ALLOC
  - SET_DIRTY now clears dirty tracking before asking iommu driver to do so;
  - New GET_DIRTY_IOVA flag that does not clear dirty bits
  - Add coverage for all added APIs
  - Expand GET_DIRTY_IOVA tests to cover IOVA bitmap corner cases tests
  that I had in separate; I only excluded the Terabyte IOVA range
  usecases (which test bitmaps 2M+) because those will most likely fail
  to be run as selftests (not sure yet how I can include those). I am
  not exactly sure how I can cover those, unless I do 'fake IOVA maps'
  *somehow* which do not necessarily require real buffers.
- Handle most comments in intel-iommu. Only remaining one for v3 is the
  PTE walker which will be done better.
- Handle all comments in amd-iommu, most of which regarding locking.
  Only one remaining is v3 same as Intel;
- Reflect the UAPI changes into iommu driver implementations, including
persisting dirty tracking enabling in new attach_dev calls, as well as
enforcing attach_dev enforces the requested domain flags;
* Comments from Yi Sun in making sure that dirty tracking isn't
restricted into SS only, so relax the check for FL support because it's
always enabled. (Yi Sun)
* Most of code that was in v1 for dirty bitmaps got rewritten and
repurpose to also cover VFIO case; so reuse this infra here too for both.
(Jason)
* Take Robin's suggestion of always enabling dirty tracking and set_dirty
just clearing bits on 'activation', and make that a generic property to
ensure we always get accurate results between starting and stopping
tracking. (Robin Murphy)
* Address all comments from SMMUv3 into how we enable/test the DBM, or the
bits in the context descriptor with io-pgtable::quirks, etc
(Robin, Shameerali)
