cover Migration: VMSTATE_WITH_TMP

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <[email protected]>

Hi,
I'm interested in comments on the idea here, it's certainly
not ready to go in yet; and VERY untested.

Here I've added a macro, VMSTATE_WITH_TMP which allows
you to allocate a temporary structure, transmit that with a VMStateDescription and then free that temporary.
A pointer to the parent structure is set up in the temporary
allowing the pre_load/pre_save/post_load off the child vmsd to copy/calculate things to fill in the temporary.

There are 4 patches:
a) Add VMSTATE_WITH_TMP
b) A test for (a)
An easy read to see how (a) works

c) Conversion of SLIRPs sbuf structure to a VMState This is a nice use of VMSTATE_WITH_TMP since it needs to calculate and send a couple of offsets based off the contents of the structure but not the raw fields.

d) Conversion of virtio-net to VMState; this is pretty hairy, and the previous version I posted added a bunch of migration only variables into the structure; here I use 3 VMSTATE_WITH_TMP's to avoid it.

Both (c) & (d) depend on a whole bunch of related
patches I'm still cooking, but they should let people see how VMSTATE_WITH_TMP is used.

I think it works OK; it's not exactly compact though,
you often seem to end up with more VMStateDescription boiler plate and quite a few trivial pre_load/pre_save.

Note this isn't standalone; it depends on Jianjun's
patches that modify the .get/.put parameters and a bunch of smaller patches of mine.

Comments welcome,

Dave

PATCH 1/7 migration: Add VMSTATE_WITH_TMP

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <[email protected]>

VMSTATE_WITH_TMP is for handling structures where some calculation or rearrangement of the data needs to be performed before the data hits the wire.
For example, where the value on the wire is an offset from a non-migrated base, but the data in the structure is the actual pointer.

To use it, a temporary type is created and a vmsd used on that type. The first element of the type must be 'parent' a pointer back to the type of the main structure. VMSTATE_WITH_TMP takes care of allocating and freeing the temporary before running the child vmsd.

The post_load/pre_save on the child vmsd can copy things from the parent to the temporary using the parent pointer and do any other calculations needed; it can then use normal VMSD entries to do the actual data storage without having to fiddle around with qemu_get_*/qemu_put_*

Yes but I'd rather try and get rid of the customized put/get from every device, because then people start using qemu_put/qemu_get in them all.

VMSTATE_WITH_TMP is for handling structures where some calculation or rearrangement of the data needs to be performed before the data hits the wire.
For example, where the value on the wire is an offset from a non-migrated base, but the data in the structure is the actual pointer.

To use it, a temporary type is created and a vmsd used on that type. The first element of the type must be 'parent' a pointer back to the type of the main structure. VMSTATE_WITH_TMP takes care of allocating and freeing the temporary before running the child vmsd.

The post_load/pre_save on the child vmsd can copy things from the parent to the temporary using the parent pointer and do any other calculations needed; it can then use normal VMSD entries to do the actual data storage without having to fiddle around with qemu_get_*/qemu_put_*

If customized put/get can do transformation and dumping/loading data to/from the parent structure, you don't have to go through pre_save/post_load, and may get rid of parent pointer.

Yes but I'd rather try and get rid of the customized put/get from every device, because then people start using qemu_put/qemu_get in them all.

Then customized handling need to happen in pre_save/post_load. I think you need a way to pass TMP pointer around?

The requirement for the parent pointer is a little clunky, but I don't quickly see a better way, and it is compile-time verified. As noted elsewhere I think this is a really useful approach which could allow a bunch of internal state cleanups while preserving migration.

IIUC, from the put_tmp, I didn't see how tmp is filled with data. I suppose it is to be filled by pre_save. So tmp pointer needs to find a way from inside pre_save to put_tmp. How does it happen?

VMSTATE_WITH_TMP is for handling structures where some calculation or rearrangement of the data needs to be performed before the data hits the wire.
For example, where the value on the wire is an offset from a non-migrated base, but the data in the structure is the actual pointer.

To use it, a temporary type is created and a vmsd used on that type. The first element of the type must be 'parent' a pointer back to the type of the main structure. VMSTATE_WITH_TMP takes care of allocating and freeing the temporary before running the child vmsd.

The post_load/pre_save on the child vmsd can copy things from the parent to the temporary using the parent pointer and do any other calculations needed; it can then use normal VMSD entries to do the actual data storage without having to fiddle around with qemu_get_*/qemu_put_*

If customized put/get can do transformation and dumping/loading data to/from the parent structure, you don't have to go through pre_save/post_load, and may get rid of parent pointer.

Yes but I'd rather try and get rid of the customized put/get from every device, because then people start using qemu_put/qemu_get in them all.

Then customized handling need to happen in pre_save/post_load. I think you need a way to pass TMP pointer around?

But then why is that better than having the parent pointer?

IIUC, from the put_tmp, I didn't see how tmp is filled with data. I suppose it is to be filled by pre_save. So tmp pointer needs to find a way from inside pre_save to put_tmp. How does it happen?

The tmp.parent pointer is filled by the '*(void **)tmp = pv;' in the put_tmp and get_tmp.
Only after that is the child vmsd run and it's passed the tmp pointer; it's the child's pre_save/pre_load that has the chance to do whatever it likes to fill the tmp.

The requirement for the parent pointer is a little clunky, but I don't quickly see a better way, and it is compile-time verified. As noted elsewhere I think this is a really useful approach which could allow a bunch of internal state cleanups while preserving migration.

Re: [Qemu-devel] [very-WIP 2/7] tests/migration: Add test for VMSTATE_WITH_TMP

Quoted 5 lines · Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <[email protected]>

Add a test for VMSTATE_WITH_TMP to tests/test-vmstate.c

Looks reasonable. The other obvious use case to me - which involves a little less awkwardness with command line supplied values - is changing an internal value to an equivalent-but-scaled representation. e.g. changing from size (in bytes, but must be page aligned), to number of pages.

PATCH 3/4 slirp: VMStatify sbuf

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <[email protected]>

Convert the sbuf structure to a VMStateDescription. Note this uses the VMSTATE_WITH_TMP mechanism to calculate and reload the offsets based on the pointers.

Convert the sbuf structure to a VMStateDescription. Note this uses the VMSTATE_WITH_TMP mechanism to calculate and reload the offsets based on the pointers.

What makes me think about the properties of this approach, is, that each time we use a parent pointer to read we have a data dependency. This seems to me much more complicated that the current massaging function approach were we say "OK now everything below me is there, now let us transform". Of course the proposed approach is more powerful.

It is a bit confusing though (for a novice like me) that we have a non ALLOC VBUFFER whose pointer is NULL after post_load.

Now if I imagine the original stream were written in the following sequence:
vbuffer_length (sb_datalen), vbuffer_data (sb_data), offsets (sb_wptr, sb_rptr) which seems completely valid to me then the context would not be sufficient to compute sb_wptr and sb_rptr because the lifetime of vbuffer_data and the tmp do not overlap.

I aware it's a trade-off between how long the temporary data lives and how complicated the dependencies get. Or am I getting something wrong?

Cheers,

Yes it is, but we have to apply a transform to the data so that means we somehow need to get to both a temporary piece of storage and the parent data.

I don't think this pointer can be NULL; the sbreserve at #2 causes it to be allocated.
But yes, it's a shame I can't use VMS_ALLOC here, but the sbreserve is not a trivial allocation function.

If that was the case you could still do it pretty easily. You'd have to add the sb_datalen and sb_data fields to the temporary and then move the VMSTATE_VBUFFER_UINT32 into the tmp so it would operate on the copied fields.

Quoted 2 lines

I aware it's a trade-off between how long the temporary data lives and how complicated the dependencies get. Or am I getting something wrong?

No, I think that's right. The other option I thought of was a macro to allocate a temporary and then another to free it and then someway to tell macros in between that they should operate on the temporary rather than the main pointer; but then you'd have to be VERY careful to not allow yourself to access a temporary that's been freed. This structure means you can't make that mistake.

Re: [Qemu-devel] [very-WIP 3/4] slirp: VMStatify sbuf

OK, memory was allocated at #2

Quoted 2 lines

It is a bit confusing though (for a novice like me) that we have a non ALLOC VBUFFER whose pointer is NULL after post_load.

I don't think this pointer can be NULL; the sbreserve at #2 causes it to be allocated.
But yes, it's a shame I can't use VMS_ALLOC here, but the sbreserve is not a trivial allocation function.

Sorry my fault, wanted to say pre_load and not post_load. The assumption that backing memory is allocated either during device realization or in the pre_load of the parent or in vmstate_base_addr seemed a reasonable one (prior to the extra possibilities introduced by the patches of Jianjun).

That basically means you expand the area affected by the tmp handling so that you have all the info you need to do the computation/transformation before the temporary is freed, right? Then the worst it can get is that you need to transform the first field and for that you need the last field.

I have a couple of crazy half ideas of myself, I just do not feel very comfortable sharing them, because right now I do not have the capacity to explore them properly. Besides I don't know the code-base well enough to say if this reasoning has some practical relevance or is it 'rather academic'. Nevertheless I did not want to keep the opinion to myself that this thing with the dependencies can get rather convoluted under circumstances.
