[PATCH] mlx5_vdpa: offer VHOST_BACKEND_F_ENABLE_AFTER_DRIVER_OK

[PATCH] mlx5_vdpa: offer VHOST_BACKEND_F_ENABLE_AFTER_DRIVER_OK

[Eugenio Pérez]

Offer this backend feature as mlx5 is compatible with it. It allows it
to do live migration with CVQ, dynamically switching between passthrough
and shadow virtqueue.

VHOST_BACKEND_F_ENABLE_AFTER_DRIVER_OK is too narrow a use-case to commit to it
as a kernel/userspace ABI: what if one wants to start rings in some
other specific order?
As was discussed on list, a better promise is not to access ring
until the 1st kick. vdpa can then do a kick when it wants
the device to start accessing rings.

Just enable a queue by writing e.g 1 to queue_enable in a specific order?

Rethink about the ACCESS_AFTER_KICK, it sounds functional equivalent
to allow queue_enable after DRIVER_OK, but it seems to have
distanvages:

A busy polling software device may disable notifications and never
respond to register to any kick notifiers. ACCESS_AFTER_KICK will
introduce overhead to those implementations.

Just enable a queue by writing e.g 1 to queue_enable in a specific order?

Rethink about the ACCESS_AFTER_KICK, it sounds functional equivalent
to allow queue_enable after DRIVER_OK, but it seems to have
distanvages:

A busy polling software device may disable notifications and never
respond to register to any kick notifiers. ACCESS_AFTER_KICK will
introduce overhead to those implementations.

But then at driver ok time we don't know how many queues are there.

It's just the 1st kick, then you can disable. No?

There should be a device specific interface for this, for example,
num_queue_paris. So the device knows at most how many queues there
are. Or anything I miss?

Yes, but:

1) adding hooks for queue_enable
2) adding new codes to register event notifier and toggle the notifier

1) seems much easier? Or for most devices, it already behaves like this.

That's a device limitations. Does not tell the device how much is used.

I think I miss something, how kick differs from queue_enable in this way?

Probably, but I meant:

1) This behaviour has been supported by some device (e.g MLX)
2) This is the current behaviour of Qemu for vhost-net devices:

static void virtio_net_queue_enable(VirtIODevice *vdev, uint32_t queue_index)
{
    VirtIONet *n = VIRTIO_NET(vdev);
    NetClientState *nc;
    int r;

    ....

    if (get_vhost_net(nc->peer) &&
        nc->peer->info->type == NET_CLIENT_DRIVER_TAP) {
        r = vhost_net_virtqueue_restart(vdev, nc, queue_index);
        if (r < 0) {
            error_report("unable to restart vhost net virtqueue: %d, "
                            "when resetting the queue", queue_index);
        }
    }
}

Probably, but I meant:

1) This behaviour has been supported by some device (e.g MLX)
2) This is the current behaviour of Qemu for vhost-net devices:

static void virtio_net_queue_enable(VirtIODevice *vdev, uint32_t queue_index)
{
    VirtIONet *n = VIRTIO_NET(vdev);
    NetClientState *nc;
    int r;

    ....

    if (get_vhost_net(nc->peer) &&
        nc->peer->info->type == NET_CLIENT_DRIVER_TAP) {
        r = vhost_net_virtqueue_restart(vdev, nc, queue_index);
        if (r < 0) {
            error_report("unable to restart vhost net virtqueue: %d, "
                            "when resetting the queue", queue_index);
        }
    }
}

Thanks

Friendly ping about this series,

Now that VHOST_BACKEND_F_ENABLE_AFTER_DRIVER_OK has been merged for
vdpa_sim, does it make sense for mlx too?

For sure. I was just busy with a qemu pull, will handle this next.
