Subject: [PATCH v10 0/3] VT-d Device-TLB flush issue
Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2016 18:54:10 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461322453-29216-1-git-send-email-quan.xu@intel.com> (raw)
This patches fix current timeout concern and also allow limited ATS support:
1. Add a timeout parameter for Queued Invalidation
The parameter 'vtd_qi_timeout' specifies the timeout of the
VT-d Queued Invalidation in milliseconds. By default, the
timeout is 1ms, which can be boot-time changed.
Add a __must_check annotation. The followup patch titled
'VT-d IOTLB/Context/IEC flush issue' addresses the __mustcheck.
That is the other callers of this routine (two or three levels up)
ignore the return code. This patch does not address this but the
other does.
2. Synchronize for Device-TLB flush one by one
Today we do Device-TLB flush synchronization after issuing flush
requests for all ATS devices belonging to a VM. Doing so however
imposes a limitation, i.e. that we can not figure out which flush
request is blocked in the flush queue list, based on VT-d spec.
To prepare correct Device-TLB flush timeout handling in next patch,
we change the behavior to synchronize for every Device-TLB flush
request. So the Device-TLB flush interface is changed a little bit,
by checking timeout within the function instead of outside of function.
Accordingly we also do a similar change for flush interfaces of
IOTLB/IEC/Context, i.e. moving synchronization into the function.
Since there is no user of a non-synced interface, we just rename
existing ones with _sync suffix.
3. Fix vt-d Device-TLB flush timeout issue
If Device-TLB flush timed out, we hide the target ATS device
immediately and crash the domain owning this ATS device. If
impacted domain is hardware domain, just throw out a warning.
By hiding the device, we make sure it can't be assigned to any
domain any longer (see device_assigned).
**NOTE**
This patch set should base on one prereq patch sets:
a). Check VT-d Device-TLB flush error.
----
Not covered in this series:
a) Eliminate the panic() in IOMMU_WAIT_OP, used only in VT-d register read/write.
Further discussion is required on whether and how to improve it.
b) Handle IOTLB/Context/IEC flush timeout.
--Changes in v10:
#patch1
* Enhance commit message.
* Enhance description in docs/misc/xen-command-line.markdown
#patch2
* Enhance commit message.
* Fix indentation issue.
* Add __must_check anotation.
* Remove redundant comment.
* leave the existing logic as - best effort invalidation even when an error has occurred.
#patch3
* Remove stray blanks.
* Remove pointless local variable.
* Add comment.
* Add printk().
