? 2021/10/30 ??2:34, Eugenio P?rez ??:> This series enable shadow virtqueue (SVQ) for vhost-vdpa devices. This
> is intended as a new method of tracking the memory the devices touch
> during a migration process: Instead of relay on vhost device's dirty
> logging capability, SVQ intercepts the VQ dataplane forwarding the
> descriptors between VM and device. This way qemu is the effective
> writer of guests memory, like in qemu's virtio device operation.
>
> When SVQ is enabled qemu offers a new virtual address space to the
> device to read and write into, and it maps new vrings and the guest
> memory in it. SVQ also intercepts kicks and calls between the device
> and the guest. Used buffers relay would cause dirty memory being
> tracked, but at this RFC SVQ is not enabled on migration automatically.
>
> Thanks of being a buffers relay system, SVQ can be used also to
> communicate devices and drivers with different capabilities, like
> devices that only supports packed vring and not split and old guest
> with no driver packed support.
>
> It is based on the ideas of DPDK SW assisted LM, in the series of
> DPDK's https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/48370/ . However, these does
> not map the shadow vq in guest's VA, but in qemu's.
>
> For qemu to use shadow virtqueues the guest virtio driver must not use
> features like event_idx.
>
> SVQ needs to be enabled with QMP command:
>
> { "execute": "x-vhost-set-shadow-vq",
> "arguments": { "name": "vhost-vdpa0",
"enable": true } }
>
> This series includes some patches to delete in the final version that
> helps with its testing. The first two of the series have been sent
> sepparately but they haven't been included in qemu main branch.
>
> The two after them adds the feature to stop the device and be able to
> set and get its status. It's intended to be used with vp_vpda driver in
> a nested environment, so they are also external to this series. The
> vp_vdpa driver also need modifications to forward the new status bit,
> they will be proposed sepparately
>
> Patches 5-12 prepares the SVQ and QMP command to support guest to host
> notifications forwarding. If the SVQ is enabled with these ones
> applied and the device supports it, that part can be tested in
> isolation (for example, with networking), hopping through SVQ.
>
> Same thing is true with patches 13-17, but with device to guest
> notifications.
>
> Based on them, patches from 18 to 22 implement the actual buffer
> forwarding, using some features already introduced in previous.
> However, they will need a host device with no iommu, something that
> is not available at the moment.
>
> The last part of the series uses properly the host iommu, so the driver
> can access this new virtual address space created.

> Comments are welcome.
I think we need do some benchmark to see the performance impact.

> TODO:
> * Event, indirect, packed, and others features of virtio.
> * To sepparate buffers forwarding in its own AIO context, so we can
> throw more threads to that task and we don't need to stop the main
> event loop.
> * Support multiqueue virtio-net vdpa.
> * Proper documentation.
>
> Changes from v4 RFC:
> * Support of allocating / freeing iova ranges in IOVA tree. Extending
> already present iova-tree for that.
> * Proper validation of guest features. Now SVQ can negotiate a
> different set of features with the device when enabled.
> * Support of host notifiers memory regions
> * Handling of SVQ full queue in case guest's descriptors span to
> different memory regions (qemu's VA chunks).
> * Flush pending used buffers at end of SVQ operation.
> * QMP command now looks by NetClientState name. Other devices will need
> to implement it's way to enable vdpa.
> * Rename QMP command to set, so it looks more like a way of working
> * Better use of qemu error system
> * Make a few assertions proper error-handling paths.
> * Add more documentation
> * Less coupling of virtio / vhost, that could cause friction on changes
> * Addressed many other small comments and small fixes.
>
> Changes from v3 RFC:
> * Move everything to vhost-vdpa backend. A big change, this allowed
> some cleanup but more code has been added in other places.
> * More use of glib utilities, especially to manage memory.
