* KVM: add ioeventfd supportGregory Haskins2009-09-105-4/+293
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ioeventfd is a mechanism to register PIO/MMIO regions to trigger an eventfd signal when written to by a guest. Host userspace can register any arbitrary IO address with a corresponding eventfd and then pass the eventfd to a specific end-point of interest for handling. Normal IO requires a blocking round-trip since the operation may cause side-effects in the emulated model or may return data to the caller. Therefore, an IO in KVM traps from the guest to the host, causes a VMX/SVM "heavy-weight" exit back to userspace, and is ultimately serviced by qemu's device model synchronously before returning control back to the vcpu. However, there is a subclass of IO which acts purely as a trigger for other IO (such as to kick off an out-of-band DMA request, etc). For these patterns, the synchronous call is particularly expensive since we really only want to simply get our notification transmitted asychronously and return as quickly as possible. All the sychronous infrastructure to ensure proper data-dependencies are met in the normal IO case are just unecessary overhead for signalling. This adds additional computational load on the system, as well as latency to the signalling path. Therefore, we provide a mechanism for registration of an in-kernel trigger point that allows the VCPU to only require a very brief, lightweight exit just long enough to signal an eventfd. This also means that any clients compatible with the eventfd interface (which includes userspace and kernelspace equally well) can now register to be notified. The end result should be a more flexible and higher performance notification API for the backend KVM hypervisor and perhipheral components. To test this theory, we built a test-harness called "doorbell". This module has a function called "doorbell_ring()" which simply increments a counter for each time the doorbell is signaled. It supports signalling from either an eventfd, or an ioctl(). We then wired up two paths to the doorbell: One via QEMU via a registered io region and through the doorbell ioctl(). The other is direct via ioeventfd. You can download this test harness here: ftp://ftp.novell.com/dev/ghaskins/doorbell.tar.bz2 The measured results are as follows: qemu-mmio: 110000 iops, 9.09us rtt ioeventfd-mmio: 200100 iops, 5.00us rtt ioeventfd-pio: 367300 iops, 2.72us rtt I didn't measure qemu-pio, because I have to figure out how to register a PIO region with qemu's device model, and I got lazy. However, for now we can extrapolate based on the data from the NULLIO runs of +2.56us for MMIO, and -350ns for HC, we get: qemu-pio: 153139 iops, 6.53us rtt ioeventfd-hc: 412585 iops, 2.37us rtt these are just for fun, for now, until I can gather more data. Here is a graph for your convenience: http://developer.novell.com/wiki/images/7/76/Iofd-chart.png The conclusion to draw is that we save about 4us by skipping the userspace hop. -------------------- Signed-off-by: Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

* KVM: make io_bus interface more robustGregory Haskins2009-09-106-15/+79
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today kvm_io_bus_regsiter_dev() returns void and will internally BUG_ON if it fails. We want to create dynamic MMIO/PIO entries driven from userspace later in the series, so we need to enhance the code to be more robust with the following changes: 1) Add a return value to the registration function 2) Fix up all the callsites to check the return code, handle any failures, and percolate the error up to the caller. 3) Add an unregister function that collapses holes in the array Signed-off-by: Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

* KVM: PIT support for HPET legacy modeBeth Kon2009-09-105-6/+93
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When kvm is in hpet_legacy_mode, the hpet is providing the timer interrupt and the pit should not be. So in legacy mode, the pit timer is destroyed, but the *state* of the pit is maintained. So if kvm or the guest tries to modify the state of the pit, this modification is accepted, *except* that the timer isn't actually started. When we exit hpet_legacy_mode, the current state of the pit (which is up to date since we've been accepting modifications) is used to restart the pit timer. The saved_mode code in kvm_pit_load_count temporarily changes mode to 0xff in order to destroy the timer, but then restores the actual value, again maintaining "current" state of the pit for possible later reenablement.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 6c20e1442bb1c62914bb85b7f4a38973d2a423ba. To my understanding, it became obsolete with the advent of the more robust check in mmu_alloc_roots (89da4ff17f). Moreover, it prevents the conceptually safe pattern 1. set sregs 2. register mem-slots 3. run vcpu by setting a sticky triple fault during step 1.

* KVM: introduce module parameter for ignoring unknown MSRs accessesAndre Przywara2009-09-101-4/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | KVM will inject a #GP into the guest if that tries to access unhandled MSRs. This will crash many guests. Although it would be the correct way to actually handle these MSRs, we introduce a runtime switchable module param called "ignore_msrs" (defaults to 0). If this is Y, unknown MSR reads will return 0, while MSR writes are simply dropped. In both cases we print a message to dmesg to inform the user about that. You can change the behaviour at any time by saying: # echo 1 > /sys/modules/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
