v4 cover virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hot(un)plug

This is the very basic, initial version of virtio-mem. More info on virtio-mem in general can be found in the Linux kernel driver v2 posting
[1] and in patch #10. The Linux driver is currently on its way upstream.

This series is based on [3]:
"[PATCH v1] pc: Support coldplugging of virtio-pmem-pci devices on all
buses"
And [4]:
"[PATCH v2] hmp: Make json format optional for qom-set"

The patches can be found at:
https://github.com/davidhildenbrand/qemu.git virtio-mem-v4

"The basic idea of virtio-mem is to provide a flexible, cross-architecture memory hot(un)plug solution that avoids many limitations imposed by existing technologies, architectures, and interfaces."

There are a lot of addons in the works (esp. protection of unplugged memory, better hugepage support (esp. when reading unplugged memory), resizeable memory backends, support for more architectures, ...), this is the very basic version to get the ball rolling.

The first 8 patches make sure we don't have any sudden surprises e.g., if somebody tries to pin all memory in RAM blocks, resulting in a higher memory consumption than desired. The remaining patches add basic virtio-mem along with support for x86-64. The last patch indicates to the guest OS the maximum possible PFN using ACPI SRAT, such that Linux can properly enable the swiotlb when booting only with DMA memory.

PATCH v4 1/21 exec: Introduce ram_block_discard_(disable|require)()

We want to replace qemu_balloon_inhibit() by something more generic. Especially, we want to make sure that technologies that really rely on RAM block discards to work reliably to run mutual exclusive with technologies that effectively break it.

E.g., vfio will usually pin all guest memory, turning the virtio-balloon basically useless and make the VM consume more memory than reported via the balloon. While the balloon is special already (=> no guarantees, same behavior possible afer reboots and with huge pages), this will be different, especially, with virtio-mem.

Let's implement a way such that we can make both types of technology run mutually exclusive. We'll convert existing balloon inhibitors in successive patches and add some new ones. Add the check to qemu_balloon_is_inhibited() for now. We might want to make virtio-balloon an acutal inhibitor in the future - however, that requires more thought to not break existing setups.

PATCH v4 2/21 vfio: Convert to ram_block_discard_disable()

In reply to David Hildenbrand

VFIO is (except devices without a physical IOMMU or some mediated devices) incompatible with discarding of RAM. The kernel will pin basically all VM memory. Let's convert to ram_block_discard_disable(), which can now fail, in contrast to qemu_balloon_inhibit().

Leave "x-balloon-allowed" named as it is for now.

VFIO is (except devices without a physical IOMMU or some mediated devices) incompatible with discarding of RAM. The kernel will pin basically all VM memory. Let's convert to ram_block_discard_disable(), which can now fail, in contrast to qemu_balloon_inhibit().

Leave "x-balloon-allowed" named as it is for now.

I didn't rename the property ("x-balloon-allowed"), so the error message is still correct.

PATCH v4 5/21 virtio-balloon: Rip out qemu_balloon_inhibit()

In reply to David Hildenbrand

The only remaining special case is postcopy. It cannot handle concurrent discards yet, which would result in requesting already sent pages from the source. Special-case it in virtio-balloon instead.

Introduce migration_in_incoming_postcopy(), to find out if incoming postcopy is active.

AMD SEV will pin all guest memory, mark discarding of RAM broken. At the time this is called, we cannot have anyone active that relies on discards to work properly - let's still implement error handling.

PATCH v4 7/21 migration/rdma: Use ram_block_discard_disable()

In reply to David Hildenbrand

RDMA will pin all guest memory (as documented in docs/rdma.txt). We want to disable RAM block discards - however, to keep it simple use ram_block_discard_is_required() instead of inhibiting.

Note: It is not sufficient to limit disabling to pin_all. Even when only conditionally pinning 1 MB chunks, as soon as one page within such a chunk was discarded and one page not, the discarded pages will be pinned as well.

PATCH v4 10/21 virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hot(un)plug

In reply to David Hildenbrand

This is the very basic/initial version of virtio-mem. An introduction to virtio-mem can be found in the Linux kernel driver [1]. While it can be used in the current state for hotplug of a smaller amount of memory, it will heavily benefit from resizeable memory regions in the future.

Each virtio-mem device manages a memory region (provided via a memory backend). After requested by the hypervisor ("requested-size"), the guest can try to plug/unplug blocks of memory within that region, in order to reach the requested size. Initially, and after a reboot, all memory is unplugged (except in special cases - reboot during postcopy).

The guest may only try to plug/unplug blocks of memory within the usable region size. The usable region size is a little bigger than the requested size, to give the device driver some flexibility. The usable region size will only grow, except on reboots or when all memory is requested to get unplugged. The guest can never plug more memory than requested. Unplugged memory will get zapped/discarded, similar to in a balloon device.

The block size is variable, however, it is always chosen in a way such that THP splits are avoided (e.g., 2MB). The state of each block (plugged/unplugged) is tracked in a bitmap.

As virtio-mem devices (e.g., virtio-mem-pci) will be memory devices, we now expose "VirtioMEMDeviceInfo" via "query-memory-devices".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are two important follow-up items that are in the works:
1. Resizeable memory regions: Use resizeable allocations/RAM blocks to grow/shrink along with the usable region size. This avoids creating initially very big VMAs, RAM blocks, and KVM slots.
2. Protection of unplugged memory: Make sure the gust cannot actually make use of unplugged memory.

Other follow-up items that are in the works:
1. Exclude unplugged memory during migration (via precopy notifier).
2. Handle remapping of memory.
3. Support for other architectures.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Example usage (virtio-mem-pci is introduced in follow-up patches):

Start QEMU with two virtio-mem devices (one per NUMA node):

 $ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4G,maxmem=20G \
  -smp sockets=2,cores=2 \
  -numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-1 -numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=2-3 \
  [...]
  -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=8G \
  -device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm0,memdev=mem0,node=0,requested-size=0M \
  -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=8G \
  -device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm1,memdev=mem1,node=1,requested-size=1G

Query the configuration:
(qemu) info memory-devices
Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm0"
memaddr: 0x140000000
node: 0
requested-size: 0
size: 0
max-size: 8589934592
block-size: 2097152
memdev: /objects/mem0
Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm1"
memaddr: 0x340000000
node: 1
requested-size: 1073741824
size: 1073741824
max-size: 8589934592
block-size: 2097152
memdev: /objects/mem1

Add some memory to node 0:
(qemu) qom-set vm0 requested-size 500M

Remove some memory from node 1:
(qemu) qom-set vm1 requested-size 200M

Query the configuration again:
(qemu) info memory-devices
Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm0"
memaddr: 0x140000000
node: 0
requested-size: 524288000
size: 524288000
max-size: 8589934592
block-size: 2097152
memdev: /objects/mem0
Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm1"
memaddr: 0x340000000
node: 1
requested-size: 209715200
size: 209715200
max-size: 8589934592
block-size: 2097152
memdev: /objects/mem1

PATCH v4 15/21 pc: Support for virtio-mem-pci

In reply to David Hildenbrand

Let's wire it up similar to virtio-pmem. Also disallow unplug, so it's harder for users to shoot themselves into the foot.

PATCH v4 16/21 virtio-mem: Allow notifiers for size changes

In reply to David Hildenbrand

We want to send qapi events in case the size of a virtio-mem device changes. This allows upper layers to always know how much memory is actually currently consumed via a virtio-mem device.

Unfortuantely, we have to report the id of our proxy device. Let's provide an easy way for our proxy device to register, so it can send the qapi events. Piggy-backing on the notifier infrastructure (although we'll only ever have one notifier registered) seems to be an easy way.

PATCH v4 17/21 virtio-pci: Send qapi events when the virtio-mem size changes

In reply to David Hildenbrand

Let's register the notifier and trigger the qapi event with the right device id.

MEMORY_DEVICE_SIZE_CHANGE is similar to BALLOON_CHANGE, however on a memory device level.

Don't unregister the notifier (we neither have finalize() nor unrealize() for VirtIOPCIProxy, so it's not that simple to do it) - both devices are expected to vanish at the same time.

It seems weird that you do 'Property ...' and then the string; although you only do it for 3 out of 4.
I was going to ask you to include the device name here, but I'm guessing when it fails the outer migration code will print a 'Failed loading device.....' so at least you know what it is.
I would want it to be obvious when I see a 'region size changed' that I knew it was my virtio-mem device that was screwy.

It seems weird that you do 'Property ...' and then the string; although you only do it for 3 out of 4.

Yeah, because it is a derived property of the memdev. I can just make that clearer by referencing the memdev property.

I was going to ask you to include the device name here, but I'm guessing when it fails the outer migration code will print a 'Failed loading device.....' so at least you know what it is.
I would want it to be obvious when I see a 'region size changed' that I knew it was my virtio-mem device that was screwy.

IIRC that should be the case, yes.

Thanks!

PATCH v4 20/21 virtio-mem: Exclude unplugged memory during migration

In reply to David Hildenbrand

The content of unplugged memory is undefined and should not be migrated, ever. Exclude all unplugged memory during precopy using the precopy notifier infrastructure introduced for free page hinting in virtio-balloon.

Unplugged memory is marked as "not dirty", meaning it won't be considered for migration.

PATCH v4 21/21 numa: Auto-enable NUMA when any memory devices are possible

In reply to David Hildenbrand

Let's auto-enable it also when maxmem is specified but no slots are defined. This will result in us properly creating ACPI srat tables, indicating the maximum possible PFN to the guest OS. Based on this, e.g., Linux will enable the swiotlb properly.

This avoids having to manually force the switolb on (swiotlb=force) in Linux in case we're booting only using DMA memory (e.g., 2GB on x86-64), and virtio-mem adds memory later on that really needs the swiotlb to be used for DMA.

Let's take care of backwards compatibility if somebody has a setup that specifies "maxram" without "slots".

This is the very basic, initial version of virtio-mem. More info on virtio-mem in general can be found in the Linux kernel driver v2 posting
[1] and in patch #10. The Linux driver is currently on its way upstream.

Quoted 8 lines

This series is based on [3]:
"[PATCH v1] pc: Support coldplugging of virtio-pmem-pci devices on all
buses"
And [4]:
"[PATCH v2] hmp: Make json format optional for qom-set"

The patches can be found at:
https://github.com/davidhildenbrand/qemu.git virtio-mem-v4

OK so looks sane to me.
IIUC there are a couple of minor tweaks still so I'm expecting v5 of this.
You want me to merge this, right?

Quoted 144 lines

"The basic idea of virtio-mem is to provide a flexible, cross-architecture memory hot(un)plug solution that avoids many limitations imposed by existing technologies, architectures, and interfaces."

There are a lot of addons in the works (esp. protection of unplugged memory, better hugepage support (esp. when reading unplugged memory), resizeable memory backends, support for more architectures, ...), this is the very basic version to get the ball rolling.

The first 8 patches make sure we don't have any sudden surprises e.g., if somebody tries to pin all memory in RAM blocks, resulting in a higher memory consumption than desired. The remaining patches add basic virtio-mem along with support for x86-64. The last patch indicates to the guest OS the maximum possible PFN using ACPI SRAT, such that Linux can properly enable the swiotlb when booting only with DMA memory.

This is the very basic, initial version of virtio-mem. More info on virtio-mem in general can be found in the Linux kernel driver v2 posting
[1] and in patch #10. The Linux driver is currently on its way upstream.

This series is based on [3]:
"[PATCH v1] pc: Support coldplugging of virtio-pmem-pci devices on all
buses"
And [4]:
"[PATCH v2] hmp: Make json format optional for qom-set"

OK so looks sane to me.
IIUC there are a couple of minor tweaks still so I'm expecting v5 of this.
You want me to merge this, right?

Yes, I am planning to send (rebased) v5 most probably tomorrow. Thanks!
