[PATCH V15 0/7] Add architecture agnostic code to support vCPU Hotplug
Posted by Salil Mehta via 5 months, 2 weeks ago
[Note: References are present at the last after the revision history]

Virtual CPU hotplug support is being added across various architectures [1][3].
This series adds various code bits common across all architectures:

1. vCPU creation and Parking code refactor [Patch 1]
2. Update ACPI GED framework to support vCPU Hotplug [Patch 2,3]
3. ACPI CPUs AML code change [Patch 4,5]
4. Helper functions to support unrealization of CPU objects [Patch 6,7]

Repository:

[*] Architecture *Agnostic* Patch-set (This series)
   V14: https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu.git virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v3.arch.agnostic.v15

   NOTE: This series is meant to work in conjunction with the architecture-specific
   patch-set. For ARM, a combined patch-set (architecture agnostic + specific) was
   earlier pushed as RFC V2 [1]. Later, RFC V2 was split into the ARM Architecture
   specific patch-set RFC V3 [4] (a subset of RFC V2) and the architecture agnostic
   patch-set. Patch-set V14 is the latest version in that series. This series
   works in conjunction with RFC V4-rc2, present at the following link.

[*] ARM Architecture *Specific* Patch-set
   RFC V3 [4]: https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu.git virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v3
   RFC V4-rc2: https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu.git virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v4-rc2 (combined)

with patch 1 and 3 fixed should be good to go.

Salil,
Can you remind me what happened to migration part of this?
Ideally it should be a part of of this series as it should be common
for everything that uses GED and should be a conditional part
of GED's VMSTATE.

If this series is just a common base and no actual hotplug
on top of it is merged in this release (provided patch 13 is fixed),
I'm fine with migration bits being a separate series on top.

However if some machine would be introducing cpu hotplug in
the same release, then the migration part should be merged before
it or be a part that cpu hotplug series.

We have tested Live/Pseudo Migration and it seem to work with the changes
part of the architecture specific patch-set.

Ampere: https://lore.kernel.org/all/e17e28ac-28c7-496f-b212-2c9b552dbf63@amperemail.onmicrosoft.com/
Oracle: https://lore.kernel.org/all/46D74D30-EE54-4AD2-8F0E-BA5627FAA63E@oracle.com/


For ARM, please check below patch part of RFC V3 for changes related to migration:

Thanks

Do you wish to move below change into this path-set and make it common

have you tested, migration from new QEMU to an older one (that doesn't have cpuhotplug builtin)?

I'm not migration guru but I believe this should be conditional
to avoid breaking cross-version migration.

Just curious, how can we detect at source Qemu what version of the Qemu
destination is running. We require some sort of compatibility check but
then this is a problem not specific to CPU Hotplug?

We  are not initializing CPU Hotplug VMSD in this patch-set. I was
wondering then how can a new machine attempt to migrate VMSD state from 
new Qemu to older Qemu.

ARM vCPU Hotplug patches will be on top of this later in next Qemu cycle.

Sure, thanks for this. As I can see, the needed() function is used at
the source to decide if the state corresponding to a particular device
can be forwarded to the destination QEMU/VM. But how can this be used
to check for cross-version migration?

BTW, I've prepared V16. May I request a quick peek at:

https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu/commits/virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v3.arch.agnostic.v16/


Above does not have the suggested migration change yet. I can add it as
a separate path

it's usually managed by version machine types + compat settings for
machine/device.

If I'm not mistaken without VMSD it shouldn't explode, since CPUHP
code shouldn't create memory-regions that are migrated.
(If I recall correctly, mmio regions aren't going into migration stream)

then it's fine to introduce VMSD later on, just make sure others
who adding cpu hotplug elsewhere also aware of it and pickup the same patch.

what I'd do is to make sure that older machine types to not have
cpu hotplug enabled in supported events, and only machine that
has full support for hotplug enabled the bit. And then
machine_init depending on that would manage actual 'ged-event'
property.

Then later VMSD.needed would check ged-event to decide
if section should be used or omitted.

looked at
   hw/acpi: Update ACPI GED framework to support vCPU Hotplug

I get that ged_event loop in realize was copy-pasted from _EVT handler,
but that looks a bit complicated (though I won't object, it's matter of taste)

I'd prefer simpler condition than for() {} loop, and just use simpler 'if'

if (enabled_events & ACPI_GED_CPU_HOTPLUG_EVT) {
    init cpu hp code
}

PS:
if you keep for loop, I'd replace  error_report() + abort() with 'error_abort'

Ok. it looks to be a static checking at the source. I'm sure there must be
a way to dynamically do the same by negotiating the features i.e. only
enabling the common subset at the destination. I quickly skimmed the
migration code and I cannot find any thing like this being done as of now.
And this problem looks to be a pandoras box to me.

I understand this part, as discussed above this is not relevant to this patch-set
as we are not adding CPU Hotplug specific VMSD. But yes, I take your point and
will add above suggested change in the following patches in the next Qemu Cycle.

Yes, I did that intentionally to increase the code reuse which usually is encouraged.
This reduces the amount of re-testing required. But yes, there is a con side as
well to this approach if not done properly i.e. any issues in the older code also
get propagated in the newer code.

Generally we bank upon FFS function to get the next bit and use bit shifting to
deal with this kind of logic efficiently.

Maybe I should have looked a this earlier. I've  missed to address this in V16.
Do you mean error_setg(&error_abort,....) kind of logic? it has been discouraged
in favor of assert() I think?

Can we live with this for now or do you want me to send V17 for this change?

no dynamic negotiating as far as I'm aware.

We've managed to survive so far with static compat knobs
(with an occasional disaster along the way)

RE: [PATCH V15 0/7] Add architecture agnostic code to support vCPU Hotplug
Posted by Salil Mehta via 5 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi  Igor,

We are approaching end of this Qemu cycle, I believe that’s on 17th July. If you are
satisfied with the changes. May I request your Reviewed/Acked-Bys for this series?

This series is vouched by many companies. It will be good it  to merge it in this cycle.

Best regards
Salil.

Hi Michael,

Assuming there are no last-minute surprises and If you decide to merge this
series, could I kindly request that you collect all the Tags (XXX-Bys) including
the Igor's pending Reviewed/Acked-By Tag for the entire series, so that I won't
have to churn out another version (V16)?

Many thanks!

Best regards
Salil

Yes, there's no need to resend just to add acks, I collect them

I tried following test cases with rfc-v4-rc2 and kernel patches v10, and 
it looks good on Ampere platforms.

  * Regular hotplug and hot unplug tests
  * Save/restore  VM, suspend/resume VM with and with out hot-plugging
    vcpus tests
  * Live migration with and with out hot-plugging vcpus tests

Please feel free to add,

Re: [PATCH V15 0/7] Add architecture agnostic code to support vCPU Hotplug
Posted by Zhao Liu 5 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi Salil,

I ran the unit tests again on x86 platform, and everything looks good.

Please feel free to keep my tested-by tag.

Regards,
Zhao
