The new dirty ring interface is another way to collect dirty pages for the virtual machines. It is different from the existing dirty logging interface in a few ways, majorly: - Data format: The dirty data was in a ring format rather than a bitmap format, so dirty bits to sync for dirty logging does not depend on the size of guest memory any more, but speed of dirtying. Also, the dirty ring is per-vcpu, while the dirty bitmap is per-vm. - Data copy: The sync of dirty pages does not need data copy any more, but instead the ring is shared between the userspace and kernel by page sharings (mmap() on vcpu fd) - Interface: Instead of using the old KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG, KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG interfaces, the new ring uses the new KVM_RESET_DIRTY_RINGS ioctl when we want to reset the collected dirty pages to protected mode again (works like KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG, but ring based). To collecting dirty bits, we only need to read the ring data, no ioctl is needed. Ring Layout =========== KVM dirty ring is per-vcpu. Each ring is an array of kvm_dirty_gfn defined as: struct kvm_dirty_gfn { __u32 flags; __u32 slot; /* as_id | slot_id */ __u64 offset; }; Each GFN is a state machine itself. The state is embeded in the flags field, as defined in the uapi header: /* * KVM dirty GFN flags, defined as: * * |---------------+---------------+--------------| * | bit 1 (reset) | bit 0 (dirty) | Status | * |---------------+---------------+--------------| * | 0 | 0 | Invalid GFN | * | 0 | 1 | Dirty GFN | * | 1 | X | GFN to reset | * |---------------+---------------+--------------| * * Lifecycle of a dirty GFN goes like: * * dirtied collected reset * 00 -----------> 01 -------------> 1X -------+ * ^ | * | | * +------------------------------------------+ * * The userspace program is only responsible for the 01->1X state * conversion (to collect dirty bits). Also, it must not skip any * dirty bits so that dirty bits are always collected in sequence. */ Testing ======= This series provided both the implementation of the KVM dirty ring and the test case. Also I've implemented the QEMU counterpart that can run with the new KVM, link can be found at the top of the cover letter. However that's still a very initial version which is prone to change and future optimizations. I did some measurement with the new method with 24G guest running some dirty workload, I don't see any speedup so far, even in some heavy dirty load it'll be slower (e.g., when 800MB/s random dirty rate, kvm dirty ring takes average of ~73s to complete migration while dirty logging only needs average of ~55s). However that's understandable because 24G guest means only 1M dirty bitmap, that's still a suitable case for dirty logging. Meanwhile heavier workload means worst case for dirty ring. More tests are welcomed if there's bigger host/guest, especially on COLO-like workload. Please review, thanks.
