[PATCH v2] PCI/DPC: Check host->native_dpc before enable dpc service
by Yicong Yang 28 Jul '21

28 Jul '21

Per Downstream Port Containment Related Enhancements ECN[1] Table 4-6, Interpretation of _OSC Control Field Returned Value, for bit 7 of _OSC control return value: "Firmware sets this bit to 1 to grant the OS control over PCI Express Downstream Port Containment configuration." "If control of this feature was requested and denied, or was not requested, the firmware returns this bit set to 0." We store bit 7 of _OSC control return value in host->native_dpc, check it before enable the dpc service as the firmware may not grant the control.

[RFC PATCH 0/5] KVM/ARM64 Add support for pinned VMIDs
by Shameer Kolothum 23 Jul '21

23 Jul '21

On an ARM64 system with a SMMUv3 implementation that fully supports Broadcast TLB Maintenance(BTM) feature as part of the Distributed Virtual Memory(DVM) protocol, the CPU TLB invalidate instructions are received by SMMUv3. This is very useful when the SMMUv3 shares the page tables with the CPU(eg: Guest SVA use case). For this to work, the SMMU must use the same VMID that is allocated by KVM to configure the stage 2 translations. At present KVM VMID allocations are recycled on rollover and may change as a result. This will create issues if we have to share the KVM VMID with SMMU. Please see the discussion here, https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20200522101755.GA3453945@myrica/ This series proposes a way to share the VMID between KVM and IOMMU driver by, 1. Splitting the KVM VMID space into two equal halves based on the command line option "kvm-arm.pinned_vmid_enable". 2. First half of the VMID space follows the normal recycle on rollover policy. 3. Second half of the VMID space doesn't roll over and is used to allocate pinned VMIDs. 4. Provides helper function to retrieve the KVM instance associated with a device(if it is part of a vfio group). 5. Introduces generic interfaces to get/put pinned KVM VMIDs. Open Items: 1. I couldn't figure out a way to determine whether a platform actually fully supports DVM/BTM or not. Not sure we can take a call based on SMMUv3 BTM feature bit alone. Probably we can get it from firmware via IORT? 2. The current splitting of VMID space is only one way to do this and probably not the best. Maybe we can follow the pinned ASID method used in SVA code. Suggestions welcome here. 3. The detach_pasid_table() interface is not very clear to me as the current Qemu prototype is not using that. This requires fixing from my side. This is based on Jean-Philippe's SVA series[1] and Eric's SMMUv3 dual-stage support series[2].

[RFC PATCH v5 0/4] scheduler: expose the topology of clusters and add cluster scheduler
by Barry Song 21 Apr '21

21 Apr '21

ARM64 server chip Kunpeng 920 has 6 or 8 clusters in each NUMA node, and each cluster has 4 cpus. All clusters share L3 cache data while each cluster has local L3 tag. On the other hand, each cluster will share some internal system bus. This means cache is much more affine inside one cluster than across clusters. +-----------------------------------+ +---------+ | +------+ +------+ +---------------------------+ | | | CPU0 | | cpu1 | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | +----+ L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ cluster | | tag | | | | | CPU2 | | CPU3 | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ +--------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | | | L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ +----+ tag | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | L3 | | data | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ +----+ L3 | | | | | | tag | | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | | | | | ++ +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ |---------------------------+ | +-----------------------------------| | | +-----------------------------------| | | | +------+ +------+ +---------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | +----+ L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ | | tag | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ +--------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | There is a similar need for clustering in x86. Some x86 cores could share L2 caches that is similar to the cluster in Kupeng 920 (e.g. on Jacobsville there are 6 clusters of 4 Atom cores, each cluster sharing a separate L2, and 24 cores sharing L3). Having a sched_domain for clusters will bring two aspects of improvement: 1. spreading unrelated tasks among clusters, which decreases the contention of resources and improve the throughput. unrelated tasks might be put randomly without cluster sched_domain: +-------------------+ +-----------------+ | +----+ +----+ | | | | |task| |task| | | | | |1 | |2 | | | | | +----+ +----+ | | | | | | | | cluster1 | | cluster2 | +-------------------+ +-----------------+ but with cluster sched_domain, they are likely to spread due to LB: +-------------------+ +-----------------+ | +----+ | | +----+ | | |task| | | |task| | | |1 | | | |2 | | | +----+ | | +----+ | | | | | | cluster1 | | cluster2 | +-------------------+ +-----------------+ 2. gathering related tasks within a cluster, which improves the cache affinity of tasks talking with each other. Without cluster sched_domain, related tasks might be put randomly.

[PATCH net v3] net: sched: fix packet stuck problem for lockless qdisc
by Yunsheng Lin 20 Apr '21

20 Apr '21

Lockless qdisc has below concurrent problem: cpu0 cpu1 . . q->enqueue . . . qdisc_run_begin() . . . dequeue_skb() . . . sch_direct_xmit() . . . . q->enqueue . qdisc_run_begin() . return and do nothing . . qdisc_run_end() . cpu1 enqueue a skb without calling __qdisc_run() because cpu0 has not released the lock yet and spin_trylock() return false for cpu1 in qdisc_run_begin(), and cpu0 do not see the skb enqueued by cpu1 when calling dequeue_skb() because cpu1 may enqueue the skb after cpu0 calling dequeue_skb() and before cpu0 calling qdisc_run_end(). Lockless qdisc has below another concurrent problem when tx_action is involved: cpu0(serving tx_action) cpu1 cpu2 . . . . q->enqueue . . qdisc_run_begin() . . dequeue_skb() . . . q->enqueue . . . . sch_direct_xmit() . . . qdisc_run_begin() . . return and do nothing . . . clear __QDISC_STATE_SCHED . . qdisc_run_begin() . . return and do nothing . . . . . . qdisc_run_end() . This patch fixes the above data race by: 1. Get the flag before doing spin_trylock(). 2. If the first spin_trylock() return false and the flag is not set before the first spin_trylock(), Set the flag and retry another spin_trylock() in case other CPU may not see the new flag after it releases the lock. 3. reschedule if the flags is set after the lock is released at the end of qdisc_run_end(). For tx_action case, the flags is also set when cpu1 is at the end if qdisc_run_end(), so tx_action will be rescheduled again to dequeue the skb enqueued by cpu2. Only clear the flag before retrying a dequeuing when dequeuing returns NULL in order to reduce the overhead of the above double spin_trylock() and __netif_schedule() calling.

[PATCH] ethdev: add queue state when retrieve queue information
by Lijun Ou 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

Currently, upper-layer application could get queue state only through pointers such as dev->data->tx_queue_state[queue_id], this is not the recommended way to access it. So this patch add get queue state when call rte_eth_rx_queue_info_get and rte_eth_tx_queue_info_get API. Note: The hairpin queue is not supported with above rte_eth_*x_queue_info_get, so the queue state could be RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_STARTED or RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_STOPPED. Note: After add queue_state field, the 'struct rte_eth_rxq_info' size remains 128B, and the 'struct rte_eth_txq_info' size remains 64B, so it could be ABI compatible.

[RFC PATCH v3 0/2] scheduler: expose the topology of clusters and add cluster scheduler
by Barry Song 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

ARM64 server chip Kunpeng 920 has 6 clusters in each NUMA node, and each cluster has 4 cpus. All clusters share L3 cache data while each cluster has local L3 tag. On the other hand, each cluster will share some internal system bus. This means cache is much more affine inside one cluster than across clusters. +-----------------------------------+ +---------+ | +------+ +------+ +---------------------------+ | | | CPU0 | | cpu1 | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | +----+ L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ cluster | | tag | | | | | CPU2 | | CPU3 | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ +--------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | | | L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ +----+ tag | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | L3 | | data | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ +----+ L3 | | | | | | tag | | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | | | | | ++ +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ |---------------------------+ | +-----------------------------------| | | +-----------------------------------| | | | +------+ +------+ +---------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | +----+ L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ | | tag | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ +--------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | Through the following small program, you can see the performance impact of running it in one cluster and across two clusters: struct foo { int x; int y; } f; void *thread1_fun(void *param) { int s = 0; for (int i = 0; i < 0xfffffff; i++) s += f.x; } void *thread2_fun(void *param) { int s = 0; for (int i = 0; i < 0xfffffff; i++) f.y++; } int main(int argc, char **argv) { pthread_t tid1, tid2; pthread_create(&tid1, NULL, thread1_fun, NULL); pthread_create(&tid2, NULL, thread2_fun, NULL); pthread_join(tid1, NULL); pthread_join(tid2, NULL); } While running this program in one cluster, it takes: $ time taskset -c 0,1 ./a.out real 0m0.832s user 0m1.649s sys 0m0.004s As a contrast, it takes much more time if we run the same program in two clusters: $ time taskset -c 0,4 ./a.out real 0m1.133s user 0m1.960s sys 0m0.000s 0.832/1.133 = 73%, it is a huge difference. Also, hackbench running on 4 cpus in single one cluster and 4 cpus in different clusters also shows a large contrast: * inside a cluster: root@ubuntu:~# taskset -c 0,1,2,3 hackbench -p -T -l 20000 -g 1 Running in threaded mode with 1 groups using 40 file descriptors each (== 40 tasks) Each sender will pass 20000 messages of 100 bytes Time: 4.285 * across clusters: root@ubuntu:~# taskset -c 0,4,8,12 hackbench -p -T -l 20000 -g 1 Running in threaded mode with 1 groups using 40 file descriptors each (== 40 tasks) Each sender will pass 20000 messages of 100 bytes Time: 5.524 The score is 4.285 vs 5.524, shorter time means better performance. All these testing implies that we should let the Linux scheduler use this topology to make better load balancing and WAKE_AFFINE decisions. However, the current scheduler totally has no idea of clusters. This patchset exposed the cluster topology first, then added the sched domain for cluster. While it is named as "cluster", architectures and machines can define the exact meaning of cluster as long as they have some resources sharing under llc and they can leverage the affinity of this resource to achive better scheduling performance. -v3: - rebased againest 5.11-rc2 - with respect to the comments of Valentin Schneider, Peter Zijlstra, Vincent Guittot and Mel Gorman etc. * moved the scheduler changes from arm64 to the common place for all architectures. * added SD_SHARE_CLS_RESOURCES sd_flags specifying the sched_domain where select_idle_cpu() should begin to scan from * removed redundant select_idle_cluster() function since all code is in select_idle_cpu() now. it also avoided scanning cluster cpus twice in v2 code; * redo the hackbench in one numa after the above changes Valentin suggested that select_idle_cpu() could begin to scan from domain with SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES. Changing like this might be too aggressive and limit the spreading of tasks. Thus, this patch lets the architectures and machines to decide where to start by adding a new SD_SHARE_CLS_RESOURCES.
