Hi All:
This series tries to add the support for control virtqueue in vDPA.
Control virtqueue is used by networking device for accepting various
commands from the driver. It's a must to support multiqueue and other
configurations.
When used by vhost-vDPA bus driver for VM, the control virtqueue
should be shadowed via userspace VMM (Qemu) instead of being assigned
directly to Guest. This is because Qemu needs to know the device state
in order to start and stop device correctly (e.g for Live Migration).
This requies to isolate the memory mapping for control virtqueue
presented by vhost-vDPA to prevent guest from accesing it directly.
To achieve this, vDPA introduce two new abstractions:
- address space: identified through address space id (ASID) and a set
of memory mapping in maintained
- virtqueue group: the minimal set of virtqueues that must share an
address space
How will this support the pretty common case where control vq
is programmed by the kernel through the PF, and others by the VFs?
In this case, the VF parent need to provide a software control vq and
decode the command then send them to VF.
I actually thought the way to support it is by exposing
something like an "inject buffers" API which sends data to a given VQ.
Maybe an ioctl, and maybe down the road uio ring can support batching
these ....
So the virtuqueue allows the request to be processed asynchronously (e.g
driver may choose to use interrupt for control vq). This means we need
to support that in uAPI level. And if we manage to do that, it's just
another type of virtqueue.
For virtio-vDPA, this also means the extensions for queue processing
which is a functional duplication. Using what proposed in this series,
we don't need any changes for kernel virtio drivers.
What's more important, this series could be used for future features
that requires DMA isolation between virtqueues:
- report dirty pages via virtqueue
- sub function level device slicing
...
Thanks
Device needs to advertise the following attributes to vDPA:
- the number of address spaces supported in the device
- the number of virtqueue groups supported in the device
- the mappings from a specific virtqueue to its virtqueue groups
The mappings from virtqueue to virtqueue groups is fixed and defined
by vDPA device driver. E.g:
- For the device that has hardware ASID support, it can simply
advertise a per virtqueue virtqueue group.
- For the device that does not have hardware ASID support, it can
simply advertise a single virtqueue group that contains all
virtqueues. Or if it wants a software emulated control virtqueue, it
can advertise two virtqueue groups, one is for cvq, another is for
the rest virtqueues.
vDPA also allow to change the association between virtqueue group and
address space. So in the case of control virtqueue, userspace
VMM(Qemu) may use a dedicated address space for the control virtqueue
group to isolate the memory mapping.
The vhost/vhost-vDPA is also extend for the userspace to:
- query the number of virtqueue groups and address spaces supported by
the device
- query the virtqueue group for a specific virtqueue
- assocaite a virtqueue group with an address space
- send ASID based IOTLB commands
This will help userspace VMM(Qemu) to detect whether the control vq
could be supported and isolate memory mappings of control virtqueue
from the others.
To demonstrate the usage, vDPA simulator is extended to support
setting MAC address via a emulated control virtqueue.
Please review.
Changes since RFC:
- tweak vhost uAPI documentation
- switch to use device specific IOTLB really in patch 4
- tweak the commit log
- fix that ASID in vhost is claimed to be 32 actually but 16bit
actually
- fix use after free when using ASID with IOTLB batching requests
- switch to use Stefano's patch for having separated iov
- remove unused "used_as" variable
- fix the iotlb/asid checking in vhost_vdpa_unmap()
Thanks
