[PATCH mlx5-next v2 0/5] Dynamically assign MSI-X vectors count

[Leon Romanovsky]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

Changelog
v2:
 * Patch 1:
  * Renamed vf_msix_vec sysfs knob to be sriov_vf_msix_count
  * Added PF and VF device locks during set MSI-X call to protect from parallel
    driver bind/unbind operations.
  * Removed extra checks when reading sriov_vf_msix, because users will
    be able to distinguish between supported/not supported by looking on
    sriov_vf_total_msix count.
  * Changed all occurrences of "numb" to be "count"
  * Changed returned error from EOPNOTSUPP to be EBUSY if user tries to set
    MSI-X count after driver already bound to the VF.
  * Added extra comment in pci_set_msix_vec_count() to emphasize that driver
    should not be bound.
 * Patch 2:
  * Chaged vf_total_msix from int to be u32 and updated function signatures
    accordingly.
  * Improved patch title
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20210110150727.1965295-1-leon@kernel.org
 * Improved wording and commit messages of first PCI patch
 * Added extra PCI patch to provide total number of MSI-X vectors
 * Prohibited read of vf_msix_vec sysfs file if driver doesn't support write
 * Removed extra function definition in pci.h
v0: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20210103082440.34994-1-leon@kernel.org

Hi,

The number of MSI-X vectors is PCI property visible through lspci, that
field is read-only and configured by the device.

The static assignment of an amount of MSI-X vectors doesn't allow utilize
the newly created VF because it is not known to the device the future load
and configuration where that VF will be used.

The VFs are created on the hypervisor and forwarded to the VMs that have
different properties (for example number of CPUs).

To overcome the inefficiency in the spread of such MSI-X vectors, we
allow the kernel to instruct the device with the needed number of such
vectors, before VF is initialized and bounded to the driver.

Before this series:
[root@server ~]# lspci -vs 0000:08:00.2
08:00.2 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5 Virtual Function]
....
        Capabilities: [9c] MSI-X: Enable- Count=12 Masked-

Configuration script:
1. Start fresh
echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:08\:00.0/sriov_numvfs
modprobe -q -r mlx5_ib mlx5_core
2. Ensure that driver doesn't run and it is safe to change MSI-X
echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:08\:00.0/sriov_drivers_autoprobe
3. Load driver for the PF
modprobe mlx5_core
4. Configure one of the VFs with new number
echo 2 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:08\:00.0/sriov_numvfs
echo 21 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:08\:00.2/sriov_vf_msix_count

After this series:
[root@server ~]# lspci -vs 0000:08:00.2
08:00.2 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5 Virtual Function]
....
        Capabilities: [9c] MSI-X: Enable- Count=21 Masked-

[PATCH mlx5-next v2 1/5] PCI: Add sysfs callback to allow MSI-X table size change of SR-IOV VFs

[Leon Romanovsky]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

Extend PCI sysfs interface with a new callback that allows configure
the number of MSI-X vectors for specific SR-IO VF. This is needed
to optimize the performance of newly bound devices by allocating
the number of vectors based on the administrator knowledge of targeted VM.

This function is applicable for SR-IOV VF because such devices allocate
their MSI-X table before they will run on the VMs and HW can't guess the
right number of vectors, so the HW allocates them statically and equally.

The newly added /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_vf_msix_count file will be seen
for the VFs and it is writable as long as a driver is not bounded to the VF.

The values accepted are:
 * > 0 - this will be number reported by the VF's MSI-X capability
 * < 0 - not valid
 * = 0 - will reset to the device default value

[PATCH mlx5-next v2 2/5] PCI: Add SR-IOV sysfs entry to read total number of dynamic MSI-X vectors

[Leon Romanovsky]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

Some SR-IOV capable devices provide an ability to configure specific
number of MSI-X vectors on their VF prior driver is probed on that VF.

In order to make management easy, provide new read-only sysfs file that
returns a total number of possible to configure MSI-X vectors.

cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_vf_total_msix
  = 0 - feature is not supported
  > 0 - total number of MSI-X vectors to consume by the VFs

[PATCH mlx5-next v2 3/5] net/mlx5: Add dynamic MSI-X capabilities bits

[Leon Romanovsky]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

These new fields declare the number of MSI-X vectors that is
possible to allocate on the VF through PF configuration.

Value must be in range defined by min_dynamic_vf_msix_table_size
and max_dynamic_vf_msix_table_size.

The driver should continue to query its MSI-X table through PCI
configuration header.

where that VF will be used.

To overcome the inefficiency in the spread of such MSI-X vectors, we
allow the kernel to instruct the device with the needed number of such
vectors.

Such change immediately increases the amount of MSI-X vectors for the
system with @ VFs from 12 vectors per-VF, to be 32 vectors per-VF.

Hi Leon!

Looks like you got some missing kdoc here, check out the test in
patchwork so we don't need to worry about this later:

As with previous, why expose it if not supported?

This seems pretty challenging for userspace to use; aiui they would
need to iterate all the VFs to learn how many vectors are already
allocated, subtract that number from this value, all while hoping they
aren't racing someone else doing the same.  Would it be more useful if
this reported the number of surplus vectors available?

How would a per VF limit be exposed?  Do we expect users to know the
absolutely MSI-X vector limit or the device specific limit?  Thanks,

Alex

Wouldn't it be cleaner to also hide this on VFs where
pci_msix_vec_count() returns an error or where the PF driver doesn't
implement .sriov_set_msix_vec_count()?  IOW, expose it only where it
could actually work.

Nit, this is an assumption of the VF usage and conjecture of the
implementation.

pci_vf_set_msix_vec_count()?  Long, I know, but if it's limited to VFs
name it accordingly.  Thanks,

I wasn't sure about the policy in PCI/core, but sure will change.

It is much simpler to the users implement logic that operates
accordingly to this value instead of relying on exist/not-exist and
anyway handle 0 to be on the safe side.

Only privileged users are allowed to do it, so it is unlikely that we
will have more than one entity which manages PFs/VFs assignments.

Users already count number of CPUs they give to the VMs, so counting
resources is not new to them.

I didn't count in the kernel because it will require from users to
understand and treat "0" differently to understand that the pool is
depleted. So they will need to count max size of the pool anyway.

Unless we want to have two knobs, one of max and another for current,
they will count. The thing is that users will count anyway and won't
use the current value. It gives nothing.

At this stage yes, we can discuss it later when the need will arise.

Thanks Jakub,

I'll add kdocs to internal mlx5 functions.
IMHO, they are useless.

I ended adding checks of msix_cap, but can't check .sriov_set_msix_vec_count.
The latter will require to hold device_lock on PF that can disappear later, it
is too racy.

It's just scripts/kernel-doc, and it's checking if the kdoc is _valid_,
your call if you want to add kdoc, just a comment, or nothing at all.

AFAIU that's not valid kdoc, I _think_ you need to replace ' -' with ':'
for arguments (not my rules).
