This patch adds support for architecture implemented VM TLB flush, currently
ARMv7 defines HAVE_KVM_ARCH_TLB_FLUSH_ALL. This leaves other architectures
unaffected using the generic version. In subsequent patch ARMv7 defines
HAVE_KVM_ARCH_TLB_FLUSH_ALL and it's own TLB flush interface.

Can you reword this a bit?
"Allow architectures to override the generic kvm_flush_remote_tlbs()
function via HAVE_KVM_ARCH_TLB_FLUSH_ALL. ARMv7 will need this to
provide its own TLB flush interface."

Providing an override for the special cases looks sane to me.

This patch defines KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG, and moves dirty log read function
to it's own file virt/kvm/dirtylog.c. x86 is updated to use the generic
dirty log interface, selecting KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG in its Kconfig and
makefile. No other architectures are affected, each uses it's own version.
This changed from previous patch revision where non-generic architectures
were modified.
In subsequent patch armv7 does samething. All other architectures continue
use architecture defined version.

Hm.
"The x86 specific version of dirty page logging is generic enough to be
used by other architectures, noteably ARMv7. So let's move the x86 code
under virt/kvm/ and make it depend on KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG. Other
architectures continue to use their own implementations."

The approach looks sane to me, especially as it does not change other
architectures needlessly.

I'll update descriptions for both patches, with the more concise
descriptions.

I don't think it's so generic.
Especially, the relationship between mmu_lock and TLB flushing has
been changed a few times for optimizing x86 mmu code, and it may change
in the future again.
Since how mmu_lock is used is depends on each arch, it's not so
simple to make the function generic IMO.

Hi Takuya,
If the bitmap can be processed locklessly then it's not reusable for sure.
The interface is not "to generic", but "generic enough" for arm/armv8 to
reuse.
For TLB flushing I would think optimizations would wind up in arch subtree.
I'm not convinced that location of couple lines doesn't make the
interface re-usable, going back to 3.10 it hardly changed.

AFAICT all of the arch implementations of kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log()
except x86 and ppc hv (i.e. ia60, mips, ppc pv, s390) already make use
of the existing generic function kvm_get_dirty_log() to help implement
their kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log functions, which all look pretty
similar now except for TLB flushing.
Would they not be a better base for a generic
kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log()?
It feels a bit wrong to add a generic higher level function which
doesn't make use of the existing generic lower level abstraction.
(Appologies if this has already been brought up in previous versions of
the patchset, I haven't been tracking them).

But kvm_get_dirty_log() is just a helper for handling dirty bitmap, after
dirty page logging updates based on arch. implementation. There is not
much to reuse here other then add arm sync version and then call
kvm_get_dirty_log. But the sync would pretty much be identical to our current
kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log. The purpose of these patches is to reuse some of
dirty page logging logic.

Yeah there is no MAINTAINER entry for mips kvm, per my earlier email.

I agree that we should make the interface look more like
kvm_get_dirty_log(). Here the steps are:
+ * 1. Take a snapshot of the bit and clear it if needed.
+ * 2. Write protect the corresponding page.
+ * 3. Flush TLB's if needed.
+ * 4. Copy the snapshot to the userspace.
and I believe we can swap 3 and 4, since (4) is just a copy of data and
it has no ordering relationship with the action of the guest. Once we
do that, we can rewrite code to look a lot like kvm_get_dirty_log(),
let's call it kvm_get_dirty_log_protect():
r = -EINVAL;
if (log->slot >= KVM_USER_MEM_SLOTS)
goto out;
memslot = id_to_memslot(kvm->memslots, log->slot);
dirty_bitmap = memslot->dirty_bitmap;
r = -ENOENT;
if (!dirty_bitmap)
goto out;
n = kvm_dirty_bitmap_bytes(memslot);
dirty_bitmap_buffer = dirty_bitmap + n / sizeof(long);
memset(dirty_bitmap_buffer, 0, n);
spin_lock(&kvm->mmu_lock);
*is_dirty = false;
for (i = 0; i < n / sizeof(long); i++) {
unsigned long mask;
gfn_t offset;
if (!dirty_bitmap[i])
continue;
*is_dirty = true;
mask = xchg(&dirty_bitmap[i], 0);
dirty_bitmap_buffer[i] = mask;
offset = i * BITS_PER_LONG;
kvm_arch_write_protect_pt_masked(kvm, memslot, offset,
mask);
}
spin_unlock(&kvm->mmu_lock);
r = -EFAULT;
if (copy_to_user(log->dirty_bitmap, dirty_bitmap_buffer, n))
goto out;
r = 0;
out:
return r;
where the TLB flushing is moved to the caller as in kvm_get_dirty_log
callers. Taking the slots lock would also be kept in the per-arch
kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log, again similar to PPC/MIPS/S390.
You can add a new Kconfig symbol, or define an implementation of
kvm_arch_write_protect_pt_masked that BUG()s for ia64/PPC/MIPS/S390.
BTW, you can leave the function in kvm_main.c.

Hi Paolo,
thanks for breaking it down between generic/architecture layers,
helps a lot. Initially I thought we could get TLB flushing to
generic layer, previous x86 version worked for ARM. But looking
deeper other architectures either use non-generic flush or none
at all. Right now we would have x86, ARM, IA64 using generic TLB flush.
I'll restructure for another version.

I'll test the swap between 3 and 4 above, and send it to the list. Feel
free to include it in v13, so that it gets back to me via Christoffer

Ok, will do. So it would be kvm/kvm/x86 and 4 armv7 patches.

Patch adds support for initial write protection of VM memlsot. This patch
series assumes that huge PUDs will not be used in 2nd stage tables, which is
awlays valid on ARMv7.

qemu in https://github.com/mjsmar/arm-dirtylog-tests/tree/master/v7/test
is instrumented to save the guest ram on source and destination.
On source it dumps ram to file (ramimage0) from ram VMHandler
save_live_complete, right after source has stopped iterating and
remaining memory (and other VM state) to transfer is within
downtime threshold (about 70-90mS).
On destination guest ram is dumped to file qemu_loadvm_state() just
before the guest is started.
It works for 'machvirt' and 'VExpress' machine models, the start
addresses are hardcoded while walking ram_list searching for a matching
RAMBlock.
Unless you have armv7 hardware I'm not sure how you can reproduce
it, it may be possible on Fast Models but I have not tried it, most
likely it would be extremely slow.

Do you mean the file on destination include the guest ram which right after
source has stopped iterating and remaining memory(and other VM state), however,
the file on source just include the guest ram which right after source has
stopped iterating?
In addition, how to get the checksum which you are using?

Sorry I don't follow the question exactly but essentially what
happens is
a) on source you save guest ram to a file just after it completed
iterating/migrating last dirty pages to target.
b) on target you save guest ram just before it's ready to resume
the guest, and continue to resume the guest once you've saved
the guest ram.
But keep in mind that guest ram at target is the sum of initial
pre-copy + delta of dirty pages migrated over several iterations
based on kernel dirty page logging. If dirty page logging is off,
checksums won't match.
>
> In addition, how to get the checksum which you are using?
Yes so as I mentioned a file called (/root/ramimage0) is created
on both source/target - I run these tests upto 2GB of ram so they're
pretty large files. And then run 'sum -r' on source and target
and they need to match.
For ARMv8 I use a little bit different approach.

Architecture maintainers (the To: folks) please provide your comments.
This patch series has gone through quite a few itterations it
would be nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Thanks.

Patches 1-3 seem to work fine on s390. The other patches are arm-only (well cant find 5 and 6) so I guess its ok for s390.

The patches are there but threading is broken, due to mail server
