This results in a failure to to hot add memory to the guest which results in a memory map update and teardown and re-create of the resources. The first patch just removes unnecessary code. The second on is the actual fix.

Hmmm, suspend_vq() is also called by teardown_vq(), the latter of which doesn't save the available index as save_channel_info() doesn't get called in that path at all. How does it handle the case that aget_vq_state() is called from userspace (e.g. QEMU) while the hardware VQ object was torn down, but userspace still wants to access the queue index? Refer to https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1601583511-15138-1-git-send-email-si-wei.liu@oracle.com/ vhost VQ 0 ring restore failed: -1: Resource temporarily unavailable (11) vhost VQ 1 ring restore failed: -1: Resource temporarily unavailable (11) QEMU will complain with the above warning while VM is being rebooted or shut down. Looks to me either the kernel driver should cover this requirement, or the userspace has to bear the burden in saving the index and not call into kernel if VQ is destroyed. -Siwei > > Signed-off-by: Eli Cohen <elic@nvidia.com> > --- > drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c | 8 -------- > 1 file changed, 8 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c b/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c > index 88dde3455bfd..549ded074ff3 100644 > --- a/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c > +++ b/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c > @@ -1148,8 +1148,6 @@ static int setup_vq(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueue *mvq) > > static void suspend_vq(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueue *mvq) > { > - struct mlx5_virtq_attr attr; > - > if (!mvq->initialized) > return; > > @@ -1158,12 +1156,6 @@ static void suspend_vq(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueue *m > > if (modify_virtqueue(ndev, mvq, MLX5_VIRTIO_NET_Q_OBJECT_STATE_SUSPEND)) > mlx5_vdpa_warn(&ndev->mvdev, "modify to suspend failed\n"); > - > - if (query_virtqueue(ndev, mvq, &attr)) { > - mlx5_vdpa_warn(&ndev->mvdev, "failed to query virtqueue\n"); > - return; > - } > - mvq->avail_idx = attr.available_index; > } > > static void suspend_vqs(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev) > -- > 2.29.2 > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 27+ messages in thread

Actually, the userspace doesn't have the insights whether virt queue will be destroyed if just changing the device status via set_status(). Looking at other vdpa driver in tree i.e. ifcvf it doesn't behave like so.

Eli may know more, my understanding is that, during memory hotplut, qemu need to propagate new memory mappings via set_map().

I was thinking how consistency is assured when saving/restoring this h/w avail_index against the one in the virtq memory, particularly in the region_add/.region_del() context (e.g. the hotplug case). Problem is I don't see explicit memory barrier when guest thread updates the avail_index, how does the device make sure the h/w avail_index is uptodate while guest may race with updating the virtq's avail_index in the mean while?

Maybe I completely miss something obvious? If you're asking about syncronization upon hot plug of memory, the hardware always goes to read the available index from memory when a new hardware object is associted with a virtqueue. You can argue then that you don't need to restore the available index and you may be right but this is the currect inteface to the firmware. If you're asking on generally how sync is assured when the guest updates the available index, can you please send a pointer to the code where you see the update without a memory barrier? > > Thanks, > -Siwei > > > > > But you're correct.

This is a snippet of virtqueue_add_split() where avail_index gets updated by guest: /* Put entry in available array (but don't update avail->idx until they * do sync). */ avail = vq->split.avail_idx_shadow & (vq->split.vring.num - 1); vq->split.vring.avail->ring[avail] = cpu_to_virtio16(_vq->vdev, head); /* Descriptors and available array need to be set before we expose the * new available array entries. */ virtio_wmb(vq->weak_barriers); vq->split.avail_idx_shadow++; vq->split.vring.avail->idx = cpu_to_virtio16(_vq->vdev, vq->split.avail_idx_shadow); vq->num_added++; There's memory barrier to make sure the update to descriptor and available ring is seen before writing to the avail->idx, but there seems no gurantee that this update would flush to the memory immmedately either before or after the mlx5-vdpa is suspened and gets the old avail_index value stashed somewhere. In this case, how does the hardware ensure the consistency between the guest virtio and host mlx5-vdpa? Or, it completly relies on guest to update the avail_index once the next buffer is available, so that the index will be in sync again?

I'm not sure I get the question but notice that the driver should check and notify virtqueue when device want a notification. So there's a virtio_wmb() e.g in: static bool virtqueue_kick_prepare_split(struct virtqueue *_vq) { struct vring_virtqueue *vq = to_vvq(_vq); u16 new, old; bool needs_kick; START_USE(vq); /* We need to expose available array entries before checking avail * event. */ virtio_mb(vq->weak_barries); old = vq->split.avail_idx_shadow - vq->num_added; new = vq->split.avail_idx_shadow; vq->num_added = 0; (See the comment above virtio_mb()). So the avail idx is guaranteed to be committed to memroy(cache hierarchy) before the check of notification. I think we sync through this.

Indeed, the avail index is synced before kicking the device. However, even so I think the race might still be possible, see below: mlx5_vdpa device virtio driver ------------------------------------------------------------------------- virtqueue_add_split (bumped up avail_idx1 to avail_idx2, but update not yet committed to mem) (hot plug memory...) mlx5_vdpa_set_map mlx5_vdpa_change_map suspend_vqs suspend_vq (avail_idx1 was saved) save_channels_info : : virtqueue_kick_prepare_split : (avail_idx2 committed to memory) restore_channels_info setup_driver ... create_virtqueue (saved avail_idx1 getting restored; whereas current avail_idx2 in memory is ignored) : : virtqueue_notify vp_notify mlx5_vdpa_kick_vq (device processing up to avail_idx1 rather than avail_idx2?) According to Eli, the vdpa firmware does not load the latest value, i.e. avail_idx2 from memory when re-creating the virtqueue object. Instead it starts with a stale avail_idx1 that was saved in mlx5_vdpa driver private structure before the memory update is made. That is the way how the current firmware interface is designed. The thing I'm not sure though is if the firmware/device will resync and get to the latest avail_idx2 from memory while processing the kick request with mlx5_vdpa_kick_vq? If not, a few avail entries will be missing in the kick, which could cause odd behavior or implicit failure. But if the firmware will resync on kick_vq (and get_vq_state), I think I completely lost the point of saving and restoring avail_idx when changing the memory map...

The memory map changing is usually transparent to guest driver but only the device. Maybe you can refer vhost codes or qemu codes for the device logic.

I said exactly the opposite. The hardware always goes to read the available index from memory.

What I was trying to say is that after the VQ is suspended, I read the used index by querying the hardware. The read result is the used index that the hardware wrote to memory. After the I create the new hardware object, I need to tell it what is the used index (and the available index) as a way to sync it with the existing VQ. This sync is especially important when a change of map occurs while the VQ was already used (hence the indices are likely to be non zero). This can be triggered by hot adding memory after the VQs have been used. > > Thanks > > > > --- > > drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c | 7 +++++++ > > 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c b/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c > > index 549ded074ff3..3fc8588cecae 100644 > > --- a/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c > > +++ b/drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c > > @@ -87,6 +87,7 @@ struct mlx5_vq_restore_info { > > u64 device_addr; > > u64 driver_addr; > > u16 avail_index; > > + u16 used_index; > > bool ready; > > struct vdpa_callback cb; > > bool restore; > > @@ -121,6 +122,7 @@ struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueue { > > u32 virtq_id; > > struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev; > > u16 avail_idx; > > + u16 used_idx; > > int fw_state; > > /* keep last in the struct */ > > @@ -804,6 +806,7 @@ static int create_virtqueue(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtque > > obj_context = MLX5_ADDR_OF(create_virtio_net_q_in, in, obj_context); > > MLX5_SET(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, hw_available_index, mvq->avail_idx); > > + MLX5_SET(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, hw_used_index, mvq->used_idx); > > MLX5_SET(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, queue_feature_bit_mask_12_3, > > get_features_12_3(ndev->mvdev.actual_features)); > > vq_ctx = MLX5_ADDR_OF(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, virtio_q_context); > > @@ -1022,6 +1025,7 @@ static int connect_qps(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueue *m > > struct mlx5_virtq_attr { > > u8 state; > > u16 available_index; > > + u16 used_index; > > }; > > static int query_virtqueue(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueue *mvq, > > @@ -1052,6 +1056,7 @@ static int query_virtqueue(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqueu > > memset(attr, 0, sizeof(*attr)); > > attr->state = MLX5_GET(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, state); > > attr->available_index = MLX5_GET(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, hw_available_index); > > + attr->used_index = MLX5_GET(virtio_net_q_object, obj_context, hw_used_index); > > kfree(out); > > return 0; > > @@ -1602,6 +1607,7 @@ static int save_channel_info(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev, struct mlx5_vdpa_virtqu > > return err; > > ri->avail_index = attr.available_index; > > + ri->used_index = attr.used_index; > > ri->ready = mvq->ready; > > ri->num_ent = mvq->num_ent; > > ri->desc_addr = mvq->desc_addr; > > @@ -1646,6 +1652,7 @@ static void restore_channels_info(struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev) > > continue; > > mvq->avail_idx = ri->avail_index; > > + mvq->used_idx = ri->used_index; > > mvq->ready = ri->ready; > > mvq->num_ent = ri->num_ent; > > mvq->desc_addr = ri->desc_addr; > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 27+ messages in thread

Just to make sure I understand here. So it looks to me we had two index.

For avail index I understand that the hardware index is not synced with the avail index stored in the memory/virtqueue. The question is used index, if the hardware one is not synced with the one in the virtqueue. It means after vq is suspended, some requests is not completed by the hardware (e.g the buffer were not put to used ring). This may have implications to live migration, it means those unaccomplished requests needs to be migrated to the destination and resubmitted to the device. This looks not easy.

As you know these the available ring is written to by the driver and read by the device. The opposite happens for the used index.

Right, after the vq suspending, the questions are: 1) is hardware internal used index might not be the same with the used index in the virtqueue? or 2) can we simply sync the virtqueue's used index to the hardware's used index?
