Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] KVM: X86: Implement Exit-less IPIs support
Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2018 14:39:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1532327996-17619-1-git-send-email-wanpengli@tencent.com> (raw)
Using hypercall to send IPIs by one vmexit instead of one by one for
xAPIC/x2APIC physical mode and one vmexit per-cluster for x2APIC cluster
mode. Intel guest can enter x2apic cluster mode when interrupt remmaping
is enabled in qemu, however, latest AMD EPYC still just supports xapic
mode which can get great improvement by Exit-less IPIs. This patchset
lets a guest send multicast IPIs, with at most 128 destinations per
hypercall in 64-bit mode and 64 vCPUs per hypercall in 32-bit mode.
Hardware: Xeon Skylake 2.5GHz, 2 sockets, 40 cores, 80 threads, the VM
is 80 vCPUs, IPI microbenchmark(https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/19/141):

v4 -> v5:
* update hypercall layout description
* fix PV IPIs send hypercall loops
v3 -> v4:
* offset algorithm w/ __uint128_t to scale to higher APIC IDs
* remove num_possible_cpus limit
* pass op_64_bit to check bitmap size
* better describe hypercall layout
v2 -> v3:
* rename ipi_mask_done to irq_restore_exit, __send_ipi_mask return int
instead of bool
* fix build errors reported by 0day
* split patches, nothing change
v1 -> v2:
* sparse apic id > 128, or any other errors, fallback to original apic hooks
* have two bitmask arguments so that one hypercall handles 128 vCPUs
* fix KVM_FEATURE_PV_SEND_IPI doc
* document hypercall
* fix NMI selftest fails
* fix build errors reported by 0day
