v6 cover postcopy+vhost-user/shared ram

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

This set enables postcopy migration with shared memory to a vhost user process.
It's based off current head.

Testing is mostly performed with dpdk, with corresponding modifications by
Maxime.

v6 is a rebase on top of Michael's PCI world; this took some merging
because of Jay Zhou's 'vhost: used_memslots refactoring', which needed a bit of a change to 'vhost+postcopy: Stash RAMBlock and offset' (which I dropped the Review-by off)
and 'postcopy+vhost-user: Split set_mem_table for postcopy' (which I kept it, since the change is mostly contextual).

And I removed a blank line at the end of a patch.

Dave

PATCH v6 1/29 migrate: Update ram_block_discard_range for shared

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

The choice of call to discard a block is getting more complicated
for other cases. We use fallocate PUNCH_HOLE in any file cases;
it works for both hugepage and for tmpfs.
We use the DONTNEED for non-hugepage cases either where they're anonymous or where they're private.

Care should be taken when trying other backing files.

PATCH v6 3/29 postcopy: use UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE only when available

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Use a flag on the RAMBlock to state whether it has the UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE capability, use it when it's available.

This allows the use of postcopy on tmpfs as well as hugepage backed files.

PATCH v6 4/29 postcopy: Add notifier chain

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Add a notifier chain for postcopy with a 'reason' flag and an opportunity for a notifier member to return an error.

Call it when enabling postcopy.

This will initially used to enable devices to declare they're unable to postcopy and later to notify of devices of stages within postcopy.

+In postcopy migration the slave is started before all the memory has been

+the memory with it; this fd is then passed back over to the master.

PATCH v6 6/29 vhost-user: Add 'VHOST_USER_POSTCOPY_ADVISE' message

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Wire up a notifier to send a VHOST_USER_POSTCOPY_ADVISE message on an incoming advise.

Later patches will fill in the behaviour/contents of the message.

PATCH v6 12/29 postcopy+vhost-user: Split set_mem_table for postcopy

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Split the set_mem_table routines in both qemu and libvhost-user because the postcopy versions are going to be quite different once changes in the later patches are added. However, this patch doesn't produce any functional change, just the split.

PATCH v6 15/29 vhost+postcopy: Send address back to qemu

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

We need a better way, but at the moment we need the address of the mappings sent back to qemu so it can interpret the messages on the userfaultfd it reads.

This is done as a 3 stage set:
QEMU -> client
set_mem_table

mmap stuff, get addresses

client -> qemu
here are the addresses

qemu -> client
OK - now you can use them

That ensures that qemu has registered the new addresses in it's userfault code before the client starts accessing them.

Note: We don't ask for the default 'ack' reply since we've got our own.

PATCH v6 19/29 postcopy: helper for waking shared

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Provide a helper to send a 'wake' request on a userfaultfd for a shared process.
The address in the clients address space is specified together with the RAMBlock it was resolved to.

PATCH v6 23/29 libvhost-user: mprotect & madvises for postcopy

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Clear the area and turn off THP.
PROT_NONE the area until after we've userfault advised it to catch any unexpected changes.

PATCH v6 24/29 vhost-user: Add VHOST_USER_POSTCOPY_END message

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

This message is sent just before the end of postcopy to get the client to stop using userfault since we wont respond to any more requests. It should close userfaultfd so that any other pages get mapped to the backing file automatically by the kernel, since at this point we know we've received everything.

PATCH v6 26/29 vhost: Huge page align and merge

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Align RAMBlocks to page size alignment, and adjust the merging code to deal with partial overlap due to that alignment.

This is needed for postcopy so that we can place/fetch whole hugepages when under userfault.

PATCH v6 27/29 postcopy: Allow shared memory

In reply to Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)

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

Now that we have the mechanisms in here, allow shared memory in a postcopy.

Note that QEMU can't tell who all the users of shared regions are and thus can't tell whether all the users of the shared regions have appropriate support for postcopy. Those devices that explicitly support shared memory (e.g. vhost-user) must check, but it doesn't stop weirder configurations causing problems.

      hugepages works well, however 1GB hugepages are likely to be problematic
      since it takes ~1 second to transfer a 1GB hugepage across a 10Gbps link,
      and until the full page is transferred the destination thread is blocked.

+Postcopy with shared memory
+---------------------------
+
+Postcopy migration with shared memory needs explicit support from the other
+processes that share memory and from QEMU. There are restrictions on the type of
+memory that userfault can support shared.
+
+The Linux kernel userfault support works on `/dev/shm` memory and on `hugetlbfs`
+(although the kernel doesn't provide an equivalent to `madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)`
+for hugetlbfs which may be a problem in some configurations).
+
+The vhost-user code in QEMU supports clients that have Postcopy support,
+and the `vhost-user-bridge` (in `tests/`) and the DPDK package have changes
+to support postcopy.
+
+The client needs to open a userfaultfd and register the areas
+of memory that it maps with userfault.  The client must then pass the
+userfaultfd back to QEMU together with a mapping table that allows
+fault addresses in the clients address space to be converted back to
+RAMBlock/offsets.  The client's userfaultfd is added to the postcopy
+fault-thread and page requests are made on behalf of the client by QEMU.
+QEMU performs 'wake' operations on the client's userfaultfd to allow it
+to continue after a page has arrived.
+
+.. note::
+  There are two future improvements that would be nice:
+    a) Some way to make QEMU ignorant of the addresses in the clients
+       address space
+    b) Avoiding the need for QEMU to perform ufd-wake calls after the
+       pages have arrived
+
+Retro-fitting postcopy to existing clients is possible:
+  a) A mechanism is needed for the registration with userfault as above,
+     and the registration needs to be coordinated with the phases of
+     postcopy.  In vhost-user extra messages are added to the existing
+     control channel.
+  b) Any thread that can block due to guest memory accesses must be
+     identified and the implication understood; for example if the
+     guest memory access is made while holding a lock then all other
+     threads waiting for that lock will also be blocked.
