[PATCH kernel v4 0/7] Extend virtio-balloon for fast (de)inflating & fast live migration
This patch set contains two parts of changes to the virtio-balloon. One is the change for speeding up the inflating & deflating process, the main idea of this optimization is to use bitmap to send the page information to host instead of the PFNs, to reduce the overhead of virtio data transmission, address translation and madvise(). This can help to improve the performance by about 85%. Another change is for speeding up live migration. By skipping process guest's unused pages in the first round of data copy, to reduce needless data processing, this can help to save quite a lot of CPU cycles and network bandwidth. We put guest's unused page information in a bitmap and send it to host with the virt queue of virtio-balloon. For an idle guest with 8GB RAM, this can help to shorten the total live migration time from 2Sec to about 500ms in 10Gbps network environment. Changes from v3 to v4: * Use the new scheme suggested by Dave Hansen to encode the bitmap. * Add code which is missed in v3 to handle migrate page. * Free the memory for bitmap intime once the operation is done. * Address some of the comments in v3. Changes from v2 to v3: * Change the name of 'free page' to 'unused page'. * Use the scatter & gather bitmap instead of a 1MB page bitmap. * Fix overwriting the page bitmap after kicking. * Some of MST's comments for v2. Changes from v1 to v2: * Abandon the patch for dropping page cache. * Put some structures to uapi head file. * Use a new way to determine the page bitmap size. * Use a unified way to send the free page information with the bitmap * Address the issues referred in MST's comments Liang Li (7): virtio-balloon: rework deflate to add page to a list virtio-balloon: define new feature bit and head struct mm: add a function to get the max pfn virtio-balloon: speed up inflate/deflate process mm: add the related functions to get unused page virtio-balloon: define flags and head for host request vq virtio-balloon: tell host vm's unused page info drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c | 546 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- include/linux/mm.h | 3 + include/uapi/linux/virtio_balloon.h | 41 +++ mm/page_alloc.c | 95 +++++++ 4 files changed, 636 insertions(+), 49 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1

[PATCH kernel v4 1/7] virtio-balloon: rework deflate to add page to a list
When doing the inflating/deflating operation, the current virtio-balloon implementation uses an array to save 256 PFNS, then send these PFNS to host through virtio and process each PFN one by one. This way is not efficient when inflating/deflating a large mount of memory because too many times of the following operations: 1. Virtio data transmission 2. Page allocate/free 3. Address translation(GPA->HVA) 4. madvise The over head of these operations will consume a lot of CPU cycles and will take a long time to complete, it may impact the QoS of the guest as well as the host. The overhead will be reduced a lot if batch processing is used. E.g. If there are several pages whose address are physical contiguous in the guest, these bulk pages can be processed in one operation. The main idea for the optimization is to reduce the above operations as much as possible. And it can be achieved by using a bitmap instead of an PFN array. Comparing with PFN array, for a specific size buffer, bitmap can present more pages, which is very important for batch processing. Using bitmap instead of PFN is not very helpful when inflating/deflating a small mount of pages, in this case, using PFNs is better. But using bitmap will not impact the QoS of guest or host heavily because the operation will be completed very soon for a small mount of pages, and we will use some methods to make sure the efficiency not drop too much. This patch saves the deflated pages to a list instead of the PFN array, which will allow faster notifications using a bitmap down the road. balloon_pfn_to_page() can be removed because it's useless.

[PATCH kernel v4 2/7] virtio-balloon: define new feature bit and head struct
Add a new feature which supports sending the page information with a bitmap. The current implementation uses PFNs array, which is not very efficient. Using bitmap can improve the performance of inflating/deflating significantly The page bitmap header will used to tell the host some information about the page bitmap. e.g. the page size, page bitmap length and start pfn.

[PATCH kernel v4 4/7] virtio-balloon: speed up inflate/deflate process
The implementation of the current virtio-balloon is not very efficient, the time spends on different stages of inflating the balloon to 7GB of a 8GB idle guest: a. allocating pages (6.5%) b. sending PFNs to host (68.3%) c. address translation (6.1%) d. madvise (19%) It takes about 4126ms for the inflating process to complete. Debugging shows that the bottle neck are the stage b and stage d. If using a bitmap to send the page info instead of the PFNs, we can reduce the overhead in stage b quite a lot. Furthermore, we can do the address translation and call madvise() with a bulk of RAM pages, instead of the current page per page way, the overhead of stage c and stage d can also be reduced a lot. This patch is the kernel side implementation which is intended to speed up the inflating & deflating process by adding a new feature to the virtio-balloon device. With this new feature, inflating the balloon to 7GB of a 8GB idle guest only takes 590ms, the performance improvement is about 85%.

[PATCH kernel v4 5/7] mm: add the related functions to get unused page
Save the unused page info into a split page bitmap. The virtio balloon driver will use this new API to get the unused page bitmap and send the bitmap to hypervisor(QEMU) to speed up live migration. During sending the bitmap, some the pages may be modified and are no free anymore, this inaccuracy can be corrected by the dirty page logging mechanism.

[PATCH kernel v4 6/7] virtio-balloon: define flags and head for host request vq
Define the flags and head struct for a new host request virtual queue. Guest can get requests from host and then responds to them on this new virtual queue. Host can make use of this virtual queue to request the guest do some operations, e.g. drop page cache, synchronize file system, etc. And the hypervisor can get some of guest's runtime information through this virtual queue too, e.g. the guest's unused page information, which can be used for live migration optimization.

[PATCH kernel v4 7/7] virtio-balloon: tell host vm's unused page info
Please squish this and patch 5 together. It makes no sense to separate them.> +static void send_unused_pages_info(struct virtio_balloon *vb, > + unsigned long req_id) > +{ > + struct scatterlist sg_in; > + unsigned long pfn = 0, bmap_len, pfn_limit, last_pfn, nr_pfn; > + struct virtqueue *vq = vb->req_vq; > + struct virtio_balloon_resp_hdr *hdr = vb->resp_hdr; > + int ret = 1, used_nr_bmap = 0, i; > + > + if (virtio_has_feature(vb->vdev, VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_PAGE_BITMAP) && > + vb->nr_page_bmap == 1) > + extend_page_bitmap(vb); > + > + pfn_limit = PFNS_PER_BMAP * vb->nr_page_bmap; > + mutex_lock(&vb->balloon_lock); > + last_pfn = get_max_pfn(); > + > + while (ret) { > + clear_page_bitmap(vb); > + ret = get_unused_pages(pfn, pfn + pfn_limit, vb->page_bitmap, > + PFNS_PER_BMAP, vb->nr_page_bmap);This changed the underlying data structure without changing the way that the structure is populated. This algorithm picks a "PFNS_PER_BMAP * vb->nr_page_bmap"-sized set of pfns, allocates a bitmap for them, the loops through all zones looking for pages in any free list that are in that range. Unpacking all the indirection, it looks like this: for (pfn = 0; pfn < get_max_pfn(); pfn += BITMAP_SIZE_IN_PFNS) for_each_populated_zone(zone) for_each_migratetype_order(order, t) list_for_each(..., &zone->free_area[order])... Let's say we do a 32k bitmap that can hold ~1M pages. That's 4GB of RAM. On a 1TB system, that's 256 passes through the top-level loop. The bottom-level lists have tens of thousands of pages in them, even on my laptop. Only 1/256 of these pages will get consumed in a given pass. That's an awfully inefficient way of doing it. This patch essentially changed the data structure without changing the algorithm to populate it. Please change the *algorithm* to use the new data structure efficiently. Such a change would only do a single pass through each freelist, and would choose whether to use the extent-based (pfn -> range) or bitmap-based approach based on the contents of the free lists. You should not be using get_max_pfn(). Any patch set that continues to use it is not likely to be using a proper algorithm.
