[PATCH v2 0/6] LoongArch: Add pv ipi support on LoongArch VM

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

 



This patchset adds pv ipi support for VM. On physical machine, ipi HW
uses IOCSR registers, however there is trap into hypervisor when vcpu
accesses IOCSR registers if system is in VM mode. SWI is a interrupt
mechanism like SGI on ARM, software can send interrupt to CPU, only that
on LoongArch SWI can only be sent to local CPU now. So SWI can not used
for IPI on real HW system, however it can be used on VM when combined with
hypercall method. This patch uses SWI interrupt for IPI mechanism, SWI
injection uses hypercall method. And there is one trap with IPI sending,
however with SWI interrupt handler there is no trap.

This patch passes to runltp testcases, and unixbench score is 99% of
that on physical machine on 3C5000 single way machine. Here is unixbench
score with 16 cores on 3C5000 single way machine.

Change in V2:
  1. Add hw cpuid map support since ipi routing uses hw cpuid
  2. Refine changelog description
  3. Add hypercall statistic support for vcpu
  4. Set percpu pv ipi message buffer aligned with cacheline
  5. Refine pv ipi send logic, do not send ipi message with if there is
pending ipi message.
