This means +that you're able to add memory, but you're not able to remove it. +Also, proper guest support is required for memory hotplug to work. + +Basic RAM hotplug +----------------- + +In order to be able to hotplug memory, QEMU has to be told how many +hotpluggable memory slots to create and what is the maximum amount of +memory the guest can grow. This is done at startup time by means of +the -m command-line option, which has the following format: + + -m [size=]megs[,slots=n,maxmem=size] + +Where, + + - "megs" is the startup RAM. It is the RAM the guest will boot with + - "slots" is the number of hotpluggable memory slots + - "maxmem" is the maximum RAM size the guest can have + +For example, the following command-line: + + qemu [...] 1G,slots=3,maxmem=4G + +Creates a guest with 1GB of memory and three hotpluggable memory slots. +The hotpluggable memory slots are empty when the guest is booted, so all +memory the guest will see after boot is 1GB. The maximum memory the +guest can reach is 4GB. This means that three additional gigabytes can be +hotplugged by using any combination of the available memory slots. + +Two monitor commands are used to hotplug memory: + + - "object_add": creates a memory backend object + - "device_add": creates a front-end pc-dimm device and inserts it + into the first empty slot + +For example, the following commands add another 1GB to the guest +discussed earlier: + + (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=1G + (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1 + +Using the file backend +---------------------- + +Besides basic RAM hotplug, QEMU also supports using files as a memory +backend. This is useful for using hugetlbfs in Linux, which provides +access to bigger page sizes. + +For example, assuming that the host has 1GB hugepages available in +the /mnt/hugepages-1GB directory, a 1GB hugepage could be hotplugged +into the guest from the previous section with the following commands: + + (qemu) object_add memory-backend-file,id=mem1,size=1G,mem-path=/mnt/hugepages-1GB + (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1 + +It's also possible to start a guest with memory cold-plugged into the +hotpluggable memory slots. This might seem counterintuitive at first, +but this allows for a lot of flexibility when using the file backend. + +In the following command-line example, a 8GB guest is created where 6GB +comes from regular RAM, 1GB is a 1GB hugepage page and 256MB is from +2MB pages. Also, the guest has additional memory slots to hotplug more +2GB if needed: + + qemu [...] -m 6GB,slots=4,maxmem=10G \ + -object memory-backend-file,id=mem1,size=1G,mem-path=/mnt/hugepages-1G \ + -device pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1 \ + -object memory-backend-file,id=mem2,size=256M,mem-path=/mnt/hugepages-2MB \ + -device pc-dimm,id=dimm2,memdev=mem2 diff --git a/hw/mem/pc-dimm.c b/hw/mem/pc-dimm.c index f27a087061..de81b9ceab 100644 --- a/hw/mem/pc-dimm.c +++ b/hw/mem/pc-dimm.c @@ -100,6 +100,32 @@ int qmp_pc_dimm_device_list(Object *obj, void *opaque) return 0; } +ram_addr_t get_current_ram_size(void) +{ + MemoryDeviceInfoList *info_list = NULL; + MemoryDeviceInfoList **prev = &info_list; + MemoryDeviceInfoList *info; + ram_addr_t size = ram_size; + + qmp_pc_dimm_device_list(qdev_get_machine(), &prev); + for (info = info_list; info; info = info->next) { + MemoryDeviceInfo *value = info->value; + + if (value) { + switch (value->kind) { + case MEMORY_DEVICE_INFO_KIND_DIMM: + size += value->dimm->size; + break; + default: + break; + } + } + } + qapi_free_MemoryDeviceInfoList(info_list); + + return size; +} + static int pc_dimm_slot2bitmap(Object *obj, void *opaque) { unsigned long *bitmap = opaque; diff --git a/hw/virtio/virtio-balloon.c b/hw/virtio/virtio-balloon.c index 7bfbb75ad3..8a48d2a178 100644 --- a/hw/virtio/virtio-balloon.c +++ b/hw/virtio/virtio-balloon.c @@ -25,6 +25,7 @@ #include "exec/address-spaces.h" #include "qapi/visitor.h" #include "qapi-event.h" +#include "trace.h" #if defined(__linux__) #include <sys/mman.h> @@ -222,6 +223,8 @@ static void virtio_balloon_handle_output(VirtIODevice *vdev, VirtQueue *vq) if (!int128_nz(section.size) || !memory_region_is_ram(section.mr)) continue; + trace_virtio_balloon_handle_output(memory_region_name(section.mr), + pa); /* Using memory_region_get_ram_ptr is bending the rules a bit, but should be OK because we only want a single page. */ addr = section.offset_within_region; @@ -285,6 +288,7 @@ static void virtio_balloon_get_config(VirtIODevice *vdev, uint8_t *config_data) config.num_pages = cpu_to_le32(dev->num_pages); config.actual = cpu_to_le32(dev->actual); + trace_virtio_balloon_get_config(config.num_pages, config.actual); memcpy(config_data, &config, sizeof(struct virtio_balloon_config)); } @@ -294,13 +298,16 @@ static void virtio_balloon_set_config(VirtIODevice *vdev, VirtIOBalloon *dev = VIRTIO_BALLOON(vdev); struct virtio_balloon_config config; uint32_t oldactual = dev->actual; + ram_addr_t vm_ram_size = get_current_ram_size(); + memcpy(&config, config_data, sizeof(struct virtio_balloon_config)); dev->actual = le32_to_cpu(config.actual); if (dev->actual != oldactual) { - qapi_event_send_balloon_change(ram_size - + qapi_event_send_balloon_change(vm_ram_size - ((ram_addr_t) dev->actual << VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFN_SHIFT), &error_abort); } + trace_virtio_balloon_set_config(dev->actual, oldactual); } static uint32_t virtio_balloon_get_features(VirtIODevice *vdev, uint32_t f) @@ -312,22 +319,24 @@ static uint32_t virtio_balloon_get_features(VirtIODevice *vdev, uint32_t f) static void virtio_balloon_stat(void *opaque, BalloonInfo *info) { VirtIOBalloon *dev = opaque; - info->actual = ram_size - ((uint64_t) dev->actual << - VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFN_SHIFT); + info->actual = get_current_ram_size() - ((uint64_t) dev->actual << + VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFN_SHIFT); } static void virtio_balloon_to_target(void *opaque, ram_addr_t target) { VirtIOBalloon *dev = VIRTIO_BALLOON(opaque); VirtIODevice *vdev = VIRTIO_DEVICE(dev); + ram_addr_t vm_ram_size = get_current_ram_size(); - if (target > ram_size) { - target = ram_size; + if (target > vm_ram_size) { + target = vm_ram_size; } if (target) { - dev->num_pages = (ram_size - target) >> VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFN_SHIFT; + dev->num_pages = (vm_ram_size - target) >> VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFN_SHIFT; virtio_notify_config(vdev); } + trace_virtio_balloon_to_target(target, dev->num_pages); } static void virtio_balloon_save(QEMUFile *f, void *opaque) diff --git a/include/exec/cpu-common.h b/include/exec/cpu-common.h index 427b8515a3..fcc316271e 100644 --- a/include/exec/cpu-common.h +++ b/include/exec/cpu-common.h @@ -52,6 +52,7 @@ typedef uintptr_t ram_addr_t; #endif extern ram_addr_t ram_size; +ram_addr_t get_current_ram_size(void); /* memory API */ diff --git a/qemu-options.hx b/qemu-options.hx index 85ca3ad55b..b0345aebca 100644 --- a/qemu-options.hx +++ b/qemu-options.hx @@ -237,12 +237,24 @@ DEF("m", HAS_ARG, QEMU_OPTION_m, "NOTE: Some architectures might enforce a specific granularity\n", QEMU_ARCH_ALL) STEXI -@item -m [size=]@var{megs} +@item -m [size=]@var{megs}[,slots=n,maxmem=size] @findex -m -Set virtual RAM size to @var{megs} megabytes.
