* vhost: fix log ctx signallingMichael S. Tsirkin2010-09-221-3/+4
| | | | | | | | The log eventfd signalling got put in dead code. We didn't notice because qemu currently does polling instead of eventfd select. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
* vhost-net: fix range checking in mrg bufs caseMichael S. Tsirkin2010-09-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In mergeable buffer case, we use headcount, log_num and seg as indexes in same-size arrays, and we know that headcount <= seg and log_num equals either 0 or seg. Therefore, the right thing to do is range-check seg, not headcount as we do now: these will be different if guest chains s/g descriptors (this does not happen now, but we can not trust the guest). Long term, we should add BUG_ON checks to verify two other indexes are what we think they should be. Reported-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

* vhost: fix attach to cgroups regressionMichael S. Tsirkin2010-09-061-22/+57
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 2.6.36-rc1, non-root users of vhost-net fail to attach if they are in any cgroups. The reason is that when qemu uses vhost, vhost wants to attach its thread to all cgroups that qemu has. But we got the API backwards, so a non-priveledged process (Qemu) tried to control the priveledged one (vhost), which fails. Fix this by switching to the new cgroup_attach_task_all, and running it from the vhost thread. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

| * vhost-net: mergeable buffers supportDavid Stevens2010-07-283-18/+315
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for mergeable buffers in vhost-net: this is needed for older guests without indirect buffer support, as well as for zero copy with some devices. Includes changes by Michael S. Tsirkin to make the patch as low risk as possible (i.e., close to no changes when feature is disabled).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to memory-barriers.txt, an smp memory barrier in guest should always be paired with an smp memory barrier in host, and I quote "a lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an error". In case of vhost, failure to flush out used index update before looking at the interrupt disable flag could result in missed interrupts, resulting in networking hang under stress. This might happen when flags read bypasses used index write. So we see interrupts disabled and do not interrupt, at the same time guest writes flags value to enable interrupt, reads an old used index value, thinks that used ring is empty and waits for interrupt. Note: the barrier we pair with here is in drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c, function vring_enable_cb. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Acked-by: Juan Quintela <quintela@redhat.com>

| * include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-302-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* vhost-net: restart tx poll on sk_sndbuf fullSridhar Samudrala2010-02-281-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | guest to remote communication with vhost net sometimes stops until guest driver is restarted. This happens when we get guest kick precisely when the backend send queue is full, as a result handle_tx() returns without polling backend. This patch fixes this by restarting tx poll on this condition. Signed-off-by: Sridhar Samudrala <samudrala@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

* vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio serverMichael S. Tsirkin2010-01-155-0/+1933
What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce the number of system calls involved in virtio networking. Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification. There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope - uses eventfd for signalling - structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for migration, bug work-arounds in userspace) - write logging is supported (good for migration) - support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm) common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself. What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls. Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm. How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac etc. Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes. Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to 4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU utilization. Features that I plan to look at in the future: - mergeable buffers - zero copy - scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU): what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.
