I think the point is not about flag checking. Obviously branch prediction could really help. The point I think is the 'call' to cond_resched(). Depending on the kernel configuration, cond_resched() may not always be inlined, at least this is my understanding so far? So if that is true, then it still might not always be the best to call cond_resched() that often. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Even accounting for the rcu_all_qs() work, it's still dwarfed by the cost of flushing data from the cache. E.g. based on Agner Fog's wonderful uop latencies[*], the actual flush time for a single page is going to be upwards of 10k cycles, whereas __cond_resched() is going to well under 100 cycles in the happy case of no work. Even if those throughput numbers are off by an order of magnitude, e.g. CLFLUSHOPT can complete in 15 cycles, that's still ~1k cycles. Peter, don't we also theoretically need cond_resched() in the loops in sev_launch_update_data()? AFAICT, there's no articifical restriction on the size of the payload, i.e. the kernel is effectively relying on userspace to not update large swaths of memory.

Yea we probably do want to cond_resched() in the for loop inside of sev_launch_update_data(). Ithink in sev_dbg_crypt() userspace could request a large number of pages to be decrypted/encrypted for debugging but se have a call to sev_pin_memory() in the loop so that will have a cond_resded() inside of __get_users_pages(). Or should we have a cond_resded() inside of the loop in sev_dbg_crypt() too? > > [*] https://www.agner.org/optimize/instruction_tables.pdf ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

I believe sev_dbg_crypt() needs a cond_resched() of its own, sev_pin_memory() isn't guaranteed to get into the slow path of internal_get_user_pages_fast(). ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Do you have test cases that deliberately attempt to decrypt+read pages upon pages of guest memory at a time? Unless someone has wired up a VMM to do a full dump of guest memory, I highly doubt a "real" VMM will do more than read a handful of bytes at a time. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
