Hello,

I observed that NVMe performance is very bad when running fio on one
CPU(aarch64) in remote numa node compared with the nvme pci numa node.

Please see the test result[1] 327K vs. 34.9K.

Latency trace shows that one big difference is in iommu_dma_unmap_sg(),
1111 nsecs vs 25437 nsecs.


[1] fio test & results

1) fio test result:

- run fio on local CPU
taskset -c 0 ~/git/tools/test/nvme/io_uring 10 1 /dev/nvme1n1 4k

IOPS: 327K
avg latency of iommu_dma_unmap_sg(): 1111 nsecs


- run fio on remote CPU
taskset -c 80 ~/git/tools/test/nvme/io_uring 10 1 /dev/nvme1n1 4k

Have you checked the effect of running a memory-heavy process using
memory from node 1 while being executed by CPUs in node 0?

Are you able to dig down further into that? iommu_dma_unmap_sg() itself 
doesn't do anything particularly special, so whatever makes a difference 
is probably happening at a lower level, and I suspect there's probably 
an SMMU involved. If for instance it turns out to go all the way down to 
__arm_smmu_cmdq_poll_until_consumed() because polling MMIO from the 
wrong node is slow, there's unlikely to be much you can do about that 
other than the global "go faster" knobs (iommu.strict and 
iommu.passthrough) with their associated compromises.

There was also the disable_msipolling option:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/iommu/arm/arm-smmu-v3/arm-smmu-v3.c#n42

But I am not sure if that platform even supports MSI polling (or has 
smmu v3).

You could also try iommu.forcedac=1 cmdline option. But I doubt it will 
help since the issue was mentioned to be NUMA related.

Since it's ampere, I guess it's smmu v3.

BTW, if you remember, I did raise a performance issue of smmuv3 with 
NVMe before:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/b2a6e26d-6d0d-7f0d-f222-589812f701d2@huawei.com/

I did have this series to improve performance for systems with lots of 
CPUs, like above, but not accepted:

Hmm, I suppose in principle the MSI polling path could lead to a bit of 
cacheline ping-pong with the SMMU fetching and writing back to the sync 
command, but I'd rather find out more details of where exactly the extra 
time is being spent in this particular situation than speculate much 
further.

Plus that shouldn't make any difference to unmaps anyway.

It doesn't seem like the best-case throughput is of concern in this case 
though, and my hunch is that a ~23x discrepancy in SMMU unmap 
performance depending on locality probably isn't specific to NVMe.

Hi Ming,

If you're still interested in this issue, as an experiment only you can 
try my rebased patches here:

https://github.com/hisilicon/kernel-dev/commits/private-topic-smmu-5.14-cmdq-4

I think that you should see a significant performance boost.

Thanks
John

Ah, sorry. I had some test code which was not properly guarded with 
necessary build switches.

I have now removed that from the tree, so please re-pull.

Now the kernel can be built successfully, but not see obvious improvement
on the reported issue:

I am not sure what baseline you used previously, but you were getting 
327K then, so at least this would be an improvement.

I can try similar on our arm64 board when I get a chance.

Yeah, that might be one improvement, but not checked it since code base
is changed.

Looks the improvement isn't from your patches, please see the test result on

I'm a bit surprised at that.

Anyway, I don't see such an issue as you are seeing on my system. In 
general, running from different nodes doesn't make a huge difference. 
But note that the NVMe device is on NUMA node #2 on my 4-node system. I 
assume that the IOMMU is also located in that node.

sudo taskset -c 0 fio/fio --bs=4k --ioengine=io_uring --fixedbufs

If you check below, you can see that cpu4 services an NVMe irq. From 
checking htop, during the test that cpu is at 100% load, which I put the 
performance drop (vs cpu0) down to.

Here's some system info:

nvme.poll_queues is 2 in my test, and no irq is involved. But the irq mode
fio test is still as bad as io_uring.

BTW, nvme driver doesn't apply the pci numa node, and I guess the
following patch is needed:

Looks you didn't enabling polling. In irq mode, it isn't strange
to observe IOPS difference when running fio on different CPUs.

I tried that:

dmesg | grep -i nvme

So I get these results:

cpu64 300K
cpu96 300K

So still not massive changes.

 From a quick look at the code, is this then later set for the PCI 
device in nvme_pci_configure_admin_queue()?

If you are still keen to investigate more, then can try either of these:

- add iommu.strict=0 to the cmdline

- use perf record+annotate to find the hotspot
   - For this you need to enable psuedo-NMI with 2x steps:
     CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=y in defconfig
     Add irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1

     See 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm64/Kconfig#n1745
     Your kernel log should show:
     [    0.000000] GICv3: Pseudo-NMIs enabled using forced ICC_PMR_EL1 
synchronisation

But my impression is that this may be a HW implementation issue, 
considering we don't see such a huge drop off on our HW.

Thanks,
John

Unrelated, but you seem to be running with ICC_CTLR_EL3.PMHE set,
which makes the overhead of pseudo-NMIs much higher than it should be
(you take a DSB SY on each interrupt unmasking).

If you are not using 1:N distribution of SPIs on the secure side,
consider turning that off in your firmware. This should make NMIs
slightly more pleasant to use.

In your last email, the results are the following with irq mode io_uring:

 cpu0  497K
 cpu4  307K
 cpu32 566K
 cpu64 488K
 cpu96 508K

So looks you get much worse result with real io_polling?

Yeah, you are right, the pci numa node has been used.

Except for mpere-mtjade, we saw bad nvme performance on ThunderX2® CN99XX too,
but I don't get one CN99XX system to check if the issue is same with
this one.

Thanks, I was also going to suggest the latter, since it's what 
arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmdlist() does with IRQs masked that should be most 
indicative of where the slowness most likely stems from.

FWIW I would expect iommu.strict=0 to give a proportional reduction in 
SMMU overhead for both cases since it should effectively mean only 1/256 
as many invalidations are issued.

Could you also check whether the SMMU platform devices have "numa_node" 
properties exposed in sysfs (and if so whether the values look right), 
and share all the SMMU output from the boot log?

I still suspect that the most significant bottleneck is likely to be 
MMIO access across chips, incurring the CML/CCIX latency twice for every 
single read, but it's also possible that the performance of the SMMU 
itself could be reduced if its NUMA affinity is not described and we end 
up allocating stuff like pagetables on the wrong node as well.

I know Cavium's SMMU implementation didn't support MSIs, so that case 
would quite possibly lean towards the MMIO polling angle as well (albeit 
with a very different interconnect).

No found numa_node attribute for smmu platform device, and the whole dmesg log is
attached.

Have you tried turning off the IOMMU to ensure that this is really just 
an IOMMU problem?

You can try setting CONFIG_ARM_SMMU_V3=n in the defconfig or passing 
cmdline param iommu.passthrough=1 to bypass the the SMMU (equivalent to 
disabling for kernel drivers).

Thanks,
John

OK, that appears to confirm that the invalidation overhead is more of a 
symptom than the major contributing factor, which also seems to line up 
fairly well with the other information.

Thanks, so it seems like the SMMUs have MSI capability and are correctly 
described as coherent, which means completion polling should be 
happening in memory and so hopefully not contributing much more than a 
couple of cross-socket cacheline migrations and/or snoops. Combined with 
the difference in the perf traces looking a lot smaller than the 
order-of-magnitude difference in the overall IOPS throughput, I suspect 
this is overall SMMU overhead exacerbated by the missing NUMA info. If 
every new 4K block touched by the NVMe means a TLB miss where the SMMU 
has to walk pagetables from the wrong side of the system, I'm sure 
that's going to add up.

I'd suggest following John's suggestion and getting some baseline 
figures for just the cross-socket overhead between the CPU and NVMe with 
the SMMU right out of the picture, then have a hack at the firmware (or 
pester the system vendor) to see how much of the difference you can make 
back up by having the SMMU proximity domains described correctly such 
that there's minimal likelihood of the SMMUs having to make non-local 
accesses to their in-memory data. FWIW I don't think it should be *too* 
hard to disassemble the IORT, fill in the proximity domain numbers and 
valid flags on the SMMU nodes, then assemble it again to load as an 
override (it's anything involving offsets in that table that's a real pain).

Note that you might also need to make sure you have CMA set up and sized 
appropriately with CONFIG_DMA_PERNUMA_CMA enabled to get the full benefit.

Robin.

Bypassing SMMU via iommu.passthrough=1 basically doesn't make a difference
on this issue.

And from fio log, submission latency is good, but completion latency
is pretty bad,
and maybe it is something that writing to PCI memory isn't committed to HW in
time?

BTW, adding one mb() at the exit of nvme_queue_rq() doesn't make a difference.


Follows the fio log after passing iommu.passthrough=1:

A ~90% throughput drop still seems to me to be too high to be a software 
issue. More so since I don't see similar on my system. And that 
throughput drop does not lead to a total CPU usage drop, from the fio log.

Do you know if anyone has run memory benchmark tests on this board to 
find out NUMA effect? I think lmbench or stream could be used for this.

Testing network performance in an equivalent fashion to storage could 
also be an idea.

Thanks,
John

Indeed, it now sounds like $SUBJECT has been a complete red herring, and 
although the SMMU may be reflecting the underlying slowness it is not in 
fact a significant contributor to it. Presumably perf shows any 
difference in CPU time moving elsewhere once iommu_dma_unmap_sg() is out 
of the picture?

Hmm, a ~4x discrepancy in CPU<->memory bandwidth is pretty significant, 
but it's still not the ~10x discrepancy in NVMe throughput. Possibly 
CPU<->PCIe and/or PCIe<->memory bandwidth is even further impacted 
between sockets, or perhaps all the individual latencies just add up - 
that level of detailed performance analysis is beyond my expertise. 
Either way I guess it's probably time to take it up with the system 
vendor to see if there's anything which can be tuned in hardware/firmware.

Robin.

Hi Ming,

Out of curiosity, did you investigate this topic any further?

And you also asked about my results earlier:

Would the expectation be that at least I get the same performance with 
io_polling here? Anything else to try which you can suggest to 
investigate this lower performance?

Thanks,
John

IMO, the issue is probably in device/system side, since completion latency is
increased a lot, meantime submission latency isn't changed.

Either the submission isn't committed to hardware in time, or the
completion status isn't updated to HW in time from viewpoint of CPU.

We have tried to update to new FW, but not see difference made.

io_polling is supposed to improve IO latency a lot compared with irq
mode, and the perf data shows that clearly on x86_64.

> this lower performance?

You may try to compare irq mode and polling and narrow down the possible
reasons, no exact suggestion on how to investigate it, :-(


Thanks,
Ming
