v2 cover virtio: support packed ring

Hello everyone,

This patch set implements packed ring support in virtio driver.

Some functional tests have been done with Jason's
packed ring implementation in vhost:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/3/33

Both of ping and netperf worked as expected.

v1 -> v2:
- Use READ_ONCE() to read event off_wrap and flags together (Jason);
- Add comments related to ccw (Jason);

RFC (v6) -> v1:
- Avoid extra virtio_wmb() in virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed_packed() when event idx is off (Jason);
- Fix bufs calculation in virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed_packed() (Jason);
- Test the state of the desc at used_idx instead of last_used_idx in virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed_packed() (Jason);
- Save wrap counter (as part of queue state) in the return value of virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare_packed();
- Refine the packed ring definitions in uapi;
- Rebase on the net-next tree;

RFC v5 -> RFC v6:
- Avoid tracking addr/len/flags when DMA API isn't used (MST/Jason);
- Define wrap counter as bool (Jason);
- Use ALIGN() in vring_init_packed() (Jason);
- Avoid using pointer to track next in detach_buf_packed() (Jason);
- Add comments for barriers (Jason);
- Don't enable RING_PACKED on ccw for now (noticed by Jason);
- Refine the memory barrier in virtqueue_poll();
- Add a missing memory barrier in virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed_packed();
- Remove the hacks in virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare_packed();

RFC v4 -> RFC v5:
- Save DMA addr, etc in desc state (Jason);
- Track used wrap counter;

RFC v3 -> RFC v4:
- Make ID allocation support out-of-order (Jason);
- Various fixes for EVENT_IDX support;

RFC v2 -> RFC v3:
- Split into small patches (Jason);
- Add helper virtqueue_use_indirect() (Jason);
- Just set id for the last descriptor of a list (Jason);
- Calculate the prev in virtqueue_add_packed() (Jason);
- Fix/improve desc suppression code (Jason/MST);
- Refine the code layout for XXX_split/packed and wrappers (MST);
- Fix the comments and API in uapi (MST);
- Remove the BUG_ON() for indirect (Jason);
- Some other refinements and bug fixes;

RFC v1 -> RFC v2:
- Add indirect descriptor support - compile test only;
- Add event suppression supprt - compile test only;
- Move vring_packed_init() out of uapi (Jason, MST);
- Merge two loops into one in virtqueue_add_packed() (Jason);
- Split vring_unmap_one() for packed ring and split ring (Jason);
- Avoid using '%' operator (Jason);
- Rename free_head -> next_avail_idx (Jason);
- Add comments for virtio_wmb() in virtqueue_add_packed() (Jason);
- Some other refinements and bug fixes;

Thanks!

_F_ should be a bit number, not a shifted value. Yes I know current virtio_ring.h is inconsistent in that respect. changes welcome though we need to maintain the old names for the sake of old apps.

Re: [PATCH net-next v2 2/5] virtio_ring: support creating packed ring

Quoted 5 lines · Tiwei Bie

This commit introduces the support for creating packed ring. All split ring specific functions are added _split suffix. Some necessary stubs for packed ring are also added.

I'd rather have a patch just renaming split functions, then add all packed stuff in as a separate patch on top.

Name this field split so it's easier to detect misuse of e.g. packed fields in split code?

Re: [PATCH net-next v2 2/5] virtio_ring: support creating packed ring

Quoted 9 lines · Michael S. Tsirkin
Quoted 5 lines · Tiwei Bie

This commit introduces the support for creating packed ring. All split ring specific functions are added _split suffix. Some necessary stubs for packed ring are also added.

I'd rather have a patch just renaming split functions, then add all packed stuff in as a separate patch on top.

Sure, I will do that.

So this can go away with IN_ORDER?

Yes. If IN_ORDER is negotiated, next won't be needed anymore. Currently, IN_ORDER isn't included in this patch set, because some changes for split ring are needed to make sure that it will use the descs in the expected order. After that, optimizations can be done for both of split ring and packed ring respectively.

Why not just allocate event structures separately? Is it a win to have them share a cache line for some reason?

Why not just allocate event structures separately? Is it a win to have them share a cache line for some reason?

Users may call vring_new_virtqueue() with preallocated memory to setup the ring, e.g.:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/11da3a7f84f1/drivers/s390/virtio/virtio_ccw.c#L513-L522
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/11da3a7f84f1/drivers/misc/mic/vop/vop_main.c#L306-L307

Below is the corresponding definition in split ring:

https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec/blob/89dd55f5e606/split-ring.tex#L64-L78

If my understanding is correct, this is just for legacy interfaces, and we won't define layout in packed ring and don't need to support vring_new_virtqueue() in packed ring. Is it correct? Thanks!

mic doesn't support 1.0 yet but ccw does.

It's probably best to look into converting ccw to
virtio_create_virtqueue, then you can just fail
vring_new_virtqueue for packed.

Why not just allocate event structures separately? Is it a win to have them share a cache line for some reason?

Users may call vring_new_virtqueue() with preallocated memory to setup the ring, e.g.:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/11da3a7f84f1/drivers/s390/virtio/virtio_ccw.c#L513-L522

Below is the corresponding definition in split ring:

https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec/blob/89dd55f5e606/split-ring.tex#L64-L78

If my understanding is correct, this is just for legacy interfaces, and we won't define layout in packed ring and don't need to support vring_new_virtqueue() in packed ring. Is it correct? Thanks!

mic doesn't support 1.0 yet but ccw does.

It's probably best to look into converting ccw to
virtio_create_virtqueue, then you can just fail
vring_new_virtqueue for packed.

Cornelia, are there any gotchas to look out for?

This commit introduces the support for creating packed ring. All split ring specific functions are added _split suffix. Some necessary stubs for packed ring are also added.

I'd rather have a patch just renaming split functions, then add all packed stuff in as a separate patch on top.

Sure, I will do that.

So this can go away with IN_ORDER?

Yes. If IN_ORDER is negotiated, next won't be needed anymore. Currently, IN_ORDER isn't included in this patch set, because some changes for split ring are needed to make sure that it will use the descs in the expected order. After that, optimizations can be done for both of split ring and packed ring respectively.

Then you need to take steps not to negotiate this feature bit for ccw drivers.

This commit introduces the support for creating packed ring. All split ring specific functions are added _split suffix. Some necessary stubs for packed ring are also added.

I'd rather have a patch just renaming split functions, then add all packed stuff in as a separate patch on top.

Sure, I will do that.

So this can go away with IN_ORDER?

Yes. If IN_ORDER is negotiated, next won't be needed anymore. Currently, IN_ORDER isn't included in this patch set, because some changes for split ring are needed to make sure that it will use the descs in the expected order. After that, optimizations can be done for both of split ring and packed ring respectively.

It comes from the vring_align parameter of vring_create_virtqueue() and vring_new_virtqueue():

Note the TODO - we just never got to fixing it. It would be great to fix this for virtio 1 rings, but if not - at least let's not add this stuff for packed rings.

Quoted 9 lines

Should I just ignore it in packed ring?

CCW defined this:

#define KVM_VIRTIO_CCW_RING_ALIGN 4096

I'm not familiar with CCW. Currently, in this patch set, packed ring isn't enabled on CCW dues to some legacy accessors are not implemented in packed ring yet.

Then you need to take steps not to negotiate this feature bit for ccw drivers.

Underscore followed by an upper case letter isn't a good idea for a symbol. And it's not nice that this does not use the VRING_DESC_F_USED from the header.
How about ((b) ? VRING_DESC_F_USED : 0) instead?
Is produced code worse then?

Packing things into 16 bit integers will help reduce cache pressure here.

Also, this is only used for unmap, so when dma API is not used, maintaining addr and len list management is unnecessary. How about we maintain addr/len in a separate array, avoiding accesses on unmap in that case?

Also, lots of architectures have a nop unmap in the DMA API. See a proposed patch at the end for optimizing that case.

Spec says:
The VIRTQ_DESC_F_WRITE flags bit is the only valid flag for descriptors in the indirect table.

All this logic isn't needed for indirect.

Also, why re-calculate avail/used flags every time? They only change when you wrap around.

Possible optimization for when dma API is in use:

dma: detecting nop unmap

drivers need to maintain the dma address for unmap purposes, but these cycles are wasted when unmap callback is not defined. Add an API for drivers to check that and avoid unmap completely. Debug builds still have unmap.

+#define _VRING_DESC_F_USED(b)	((__u16)(b) << 15)

Underscore followed by an upper case letter isn't a good idea for a symbol. And it's not nice that this does not use the VRING_DESC_F_USED from the header.
How about ((b) ? VRING_DESC_F_USED : 0) instead?
Is produced code worse then?

Yes, I think the produced code is worse when we use conditional expression. Below is a simple test:

#define foo1(b) ((b) << 10)
#define foo2(b) ((b) ? (1 << 10) : 0)

unsigned short bar(unsigned short b)

{
	return foo1(b);
}

unsigned short baz(unsigned short b)

{
	return foo2(b);
}

With gcc -O3 -S, I got below assembly code:

	.file	"tmp.c"
	.text
	.p2align 4,,15
	.globl	bar
	.type	bar, @function
bar:
.LFB0:
	.cfi_startproc
	movl	%edi, %eax
	sall	$10, %eax
	ret
	.cfi_endproc
.LFE0:
	.size	bar, .-bar
	.p2align 4,,15
	.globl	baz
	.type	baz, @function
baz:
.LFB1:
	.cfi_startproc
	xorl	%eax, %eax
	testw	%di, %di
	setne	%al
	sall	$10, %eax
	ret
	.cfi_endproc
.LFE1:
	.size	baz, .-baz
	.ident	"GCC: (Debian 8.2.0-4) 8.2.0"
	.section	.note.GNU-stack,"",@progbits

That is to say, for ((b) << 10), it will shift the register directly. But for ((b) ? (1 << 10) : 0), in above code, it will zero eax first, and set al to 1 depend on whether di is 0, and shift eax.

This seems only to be used for indirect. Check indirect field above instead and drop this.

The flags is also needed to know the direction, i.e. DMA_FROM_DEVICE or DMA_TO_DEVICE when do DMA unmap.

Packing things into 16 bit integers will help reduce cache pressure here.

Also, this is only used for unmap, so when dma API is not used, maintaining addr and len list management is unnecessary. How about we maintain addr/len in a separate array, avoiding accesses on unmap in that case?

Sure. I'll give it a try.

Quoted 3 lines

Also, lots of architectures have a nop unmap in the DMA API. See a proposed patch at the end for optimizing that case.

Got it. Thanks.

Apparently this attempts to treat indirect descriptors same as direct ones. This is how it is in the split ring, but not in the packed one. I think you want two separate functions, for direct and indirect.

All this logic isn't needed for indirect.

Also, why re-calculate avail/used flags every time? They only change when you wrap around.

Will do that. Thanks.

What are all these hard-coded things? Also either we do READ_ONCE everywhere or nowhere. Why is this place special? Any why read 32 bit if you only want the 16?

Yeah, READ_ONCE() and reading 32bits are not really needed in this patch. But it's needed in the next patch. I thought it's not wrong to do this, so I introduced them from the first place.

I think that you don't need to look at avail flag to detect a used descriptor. The reason device writes it is to avoid confusing *device* next time descriptor wraps.

dma: detecting nop unmap

drivers need to maintain the dma address for unmap purposes, but these cycles are wasted when unmap callback is not defined. Add an API for drivers to check that and avoid unmap completely. Debug builds still have unmap.

Underscore followed by an upper case letter isn't a good idea for a symbol. And it's not nice that this does not use the VRING_DESC_F_USED from the header.
How about ((b) ? VRING_DESC_F_USED : 0) instead?
Is produced code worse then?

Packing things into 16 bit integers will help reduce cache pressure here.

Also, this is only used for unmap, so when dma API is not used, maintaining addr and len list management is unnecessary. How about we maintain addr/len in a separate array, avoiding accesses on unmap in that case?

Also, lots of architectures have a nop unmap in the DMA API. See a proposed patch at the end for optimizing that case.

Apparently this attempts to treat indirect descriptors same as direct ones. This is how it is in the split ring, but not in the packed one. I think you want two separate functions, for direct and indirect.

Spec says:
The VIRTQ_DESC_F_WRITE flags bit is the only valid flag for descriptors in the indirect table.

All this logic isn't needed for indirect.

Also, why re-calculate avail/used flags every time? They only change when you wrap around.

Possible optimization for when dma API is in use:

dma: detecting nop unmap

drivers need to maintain the dma address for unmap purposes, but these cycles are wasted when unmap callback is not defined. Add an API for drivers to check that and avoid unmap completely. Debug builds still have unmap.

Idea: how about using data to chain these descriptors? You can validate it's pointing within an array to distinguish e.g. on detach.

BTW this stuff is only used on error etc. Is there a way to reuse vring_unmap_state_packed?

It's also used by the INDIRECT path. We don't allocate desc state for INDIRECT descriptors to save DMA addr/len etc.

virtio: don't always force a notification when ring is full

We force notification when the ring is full, even if the host has indicated it doesn't want to know. This seemed like a good idea at the time: if we fill the transmit ring, we should tell the host immediately.

Unfortunately this logic also applies to the receiving ring, which is refilled constantly. We should introduce real notification thesholds to replace this logic. Meanwhile, removing the logic altogether breaks the heuristics which KVM uses, so we use a hack: only notify if there are outgoing parts of the new buffer.

Here are the number of exits with lguest's crappy network implementation:
Before:
network xmit 7859051 recv 236420

network xmit 7858610 recv 118136

According to the commit log, it seems like a workaround of lguest networking backend. I agree to drop it, we should not have such burden.

Do you know why removing this notify in Tx will break "the heuristics which KVM uses"? Or what does "the heuristics which KVM uses" refer to?

Yes. QEMU has a mode where it disables notifications and processes TX ring periodically from a timer. It's off by default but used to be on by default a long time ago. If ring becomes full this causes traffic stalls. As a work-around Rusty put in this hack to kick on ring full even with notifications disabled. It's easy enough to make sure QEMU does not combine devices with packed ring support with the timer hack. And I am guessing it's safe enough to also block that option completely e.g. when virtio 1.0 is enabled.

I don't think we have a reason to do this for packed ring. No historical baggage there, right?

Based on the original commit log, it seems that the notify here is just an "optimization". But I don't quite understand what does the "the heuristics which KVM uses" refer to. If it's safe to drop this in packed ring, I'd like to do it.

According to the commit log, it seems like a workaround of lguest networking backend.

Do you know why removing this notify in Tx will break "the heuristics which KVM uses"? Or what does "the heuristics which KVM uses" refer to?

Quoted 8 lines

Yes. QEMU has a mode where it disables notifications and processes TX ring periodically from a timer. It's off by default but used to be on by default a long time ago. If ring becomes full this causes traffic stalls. As a work-around Rusty put in this hack to kick on ring full even with notifications disabled. It's easy enough to make sure QEMU does not combine devices with packed ring support with the timer hack. And I am guessing it's safe enough to also block that option completely e.g. when virtio 1.0 is enabled.

I see. Thanks!

I agree to drop it, we should not have such burden.

But we should notice that, with this removed, the compare between packed vs split is kind of unfair. Consider the removal of lguest support recently, maybe we can drop this for split ring as well?

virtio: don't always force a notification when ring is full We force notification when the ring is full, even if the host has indicated it doesn't want to know. This seemed like a good idea at the time: if we fill the transmit ring, we should tell the host immediately.
Unfortunately this logic also applies to the receiving ring, which is refilled constantly. We should introduce real notification thesholds to replace this logic. Meanwhile, removing the logic altogether breaks the heuristics which KVM uses, so we use a hack: only notify if there are outgoing parts of the new buffer.

I don't think we have a reason to do this for packed ring. No historical baggage there, right?

Based on the original commit log, it seems that the notify here is just an "optimization". But I don't quite understand what does the "the heuristics which KVM uses" refer to. If it's safe to drop this in packed ring, I'd like to do it.

According to the commit log, it seems like a workaround of lguest networking backend.

Do you know why removing this notify in Tx will break "the heuristics which KVM uses"? Or what does "the heuristics which KVM uses" refer to?

Yes. QEMU has a mode where it disables notifications and processes TX ring periodically from a timer. It's off by default but used to be on by default a long time ago. If ring becomes full this causes traffic stalls.

Do you mean tx-timer? If yes, we can still enable it for packed ring and the timer will finally fired and we can go.

Quoted 2 lines

As a work-around Rusty put in this hack to kick on ring full even with notifications disabled.

From the commit log it looks more like a performance workaround instead of a bug fix.

Quoted 4 lines

It's easy enough to make sure QEMU
does not combine devices with packed ring support with the timer hack. And I am guessing it's safe enough to also block that option completely e.g. when virtio 1.0 is enabled.

I agree.

Thanks

But we should notice that, with this removed, the compare between packed vs split is kind of unfair. Consider the removal of lguest support recently, maybe we can drop this for split ring as well?

virtio: don't always force a notification when ring is full We force notification when the ring is full, even if the host has indicated it doesn't want to know. This seemed like a good idea at the time: if we fill the transmit ring, we should tell the host immediately.
Unfortunately this logic also applies to the receiving ring, which is refilled constantly. We should introduce real notification thesholds to replace this logic. Meanwhile, removing the logic altogether breaks the heuristics which KVM uses, so we use a hack: only notify if there are outgoing parts of the new buffer.
Here are the number of exits with lguest's crappy network implementation:

Unfortunately this logic also applies to the receiving ring, which is refilled constantly. We should introduce real notification thesholds to replace this logic. Meanwhile, removing the logic altogether breaks the heuristics which KVM uses, so we use a hack: only notify if there are outgoing parts of the new buffer.
Here are the number of exits with lguest's crappy network implementation:

I don't think we have a reason to do this for packed ring. No historical baggage there, right?

Based on the original commit log, it seems that the notify here is just an "optimization". But I don't quite understand what does the "the heuristics which KVM uses" refer to. If it's safe to drop this in packed ring, I'd like to do it.

According to the commit log, it seems like a workaround of lguest networking backend. I agree to drop it, we should not have such burden.

But we should notice that, with this removed, the compare between packed vs split is kind of unfair.

I don't think this ever triggers to be frank. When would it?

I think it can happen e.g in the path of XDP transmission in __virtnet_xdp_xmit_one():

        err = virtqueue_add_outbuf(sq->vq, sq->sg, 1, xdpf, GFP_ATOMIC); if (unlikely(err))
                return -ENOSPC; /* Caller handle free/refcnt */

I see. We used to do it for regular xmit but stopped doing it. Is it fine for xdp then?

If it's helpful, then for sure we can drop it for virtio 1. Can you see any perf differences at all? With which device?

Quoted 5 lines

I don't test but consider the case of XDP_TX in guest plus vhost_net in host. Since vhost_net is half duplex, it's pretty easier to trigger this condition.

Thanks

Sounds reasonable. Worth testing before we change things though.

BTW this stuff is only used on error etc. Is there a way to reuse vring_unmap_state_packed?

It's also used by the INDIRECT path. We don't allocate desc state for INDIRECT descriptors to save DMA addr/len etc.

Re: [PATCH net-next v2 4/5] virtio_ring: add event idx support in packed ring

Quoted 3 lines · Tiwei Bie
