2013-03-01hw: include hw header files with full pathsPaolo Bonzini
Done with this script: cd hw for i in `find . -name '*.h' | sed 's/^..//'`; do echo '\,^#.*include.*["<]'$i'[">], s,'$i',hw/&,' done | sed -i -f - `find . -type f` This is so that paths remain valid as files are moved. Instead, files in hw/dataplane are referenced with the relative path. We know they are not going to move to include/, and they are the only include files that are in subdirectories _and_ move.

2013-01-07virtio: backend virtqueue notifier maskingMichael S. Tsirkin
some backends (notably vhost) can mask events at their source in a way that is more efficient than masking through kvm. Specifically - masking in kvm uses rcu write side so it has high latency - in kvm on unmask we always send an interrupt masking at source does not have these issues. Add such support in virtio.h and use in virtio-pci. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

2012-09-28virtio: Introduce virtqueue_get_avail_bytes()Amit Shah
The current virtqueue_avail_bytes() is oddly named, and checks if a particular number of bytes are available in a vq. A better API is to fetch the number of bytes available in the vq, and let the caller do what's interesting with the numbers. Introduce virtqueue_get_avail_bytes(), which returns the number of bytes for buffers marked for both, in as well as out. virtqueue_avail_bytes() is made a wrapper over this new function.

2012-08-06virtio: fix vhost handlingPaolo Bonzini
Commit b1f416aa8d870fab71030abc9401cfc77b948e8e breaks vhost_net because it always registers the virtio_pci_host_notifier_read() handler function on the ioeventfd, even when vhost_net.ko is using the ioeventfd. The result is both QEMU and vhost_net.ko polling on the same eventfd and the virtio_net.ko guest driver seeing inconsistent results: # ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 virtio_net virtio0: output:id 0 is not a head! To fix this, proceed the same as we do for irqfd: add a parameter to virtio_queue_set_host_notifier_fd_handler and in that case only set the notifier, not the handler.

Commit c81131db15dd1844d0db1d51f3cd7a105cfd2cf3 detects old guests by comparing virtio and PCI status. It attempts to do this on load, as well, but load_config callback in a binding is invoked too early and so the virtio status isn't set yet. We could add yet another callback to the binding, to invoke after load, but it seems easier to reuse the existing vmstate callback. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2011-02-01vhost: force vhost off for non-MSI guestsmst@redhat.com
When MSI is off, each interrupt needs to be bounced through the io thread when it's set/cleared, so vhost-net causes more context switches and higher CPU utilization than userspace virtio which handles networking in the same thread. We'll need to fix this by adding level irq support in kvm irqfd, for now disable vhost-net in these configurations. Added a vhostforce flag to force vhost-net back on. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2011-01-10virtio-pci: Use ioeventfd for virtqueue notifyStefan Hajnoczi
Virtqueue notify is currently handled synchronously in userspace virtio. This prevents the vcpu from executing guest code while hardware emulation code handles the notify. On systems that support KVM, the ioeventfd mechanism can be used to make virtqueue notify a lightweight exit by deferring hardware emulation to the iothread and allowing the VM to continue execution. This model is similar to how vhost receives virtqueue notifies. The result of this change is improved performance for userspace virtio devices. Virtio-blk throughput increases especially for multithreaded scenarios and virtio-net transmit throughput increases substantially. Some virtio devices are known to have guest drivers which expect a notify to be processed synchronously and spin waiting for completion. For virtio-net, this also seems to interact with the guest stack in strange ways so that TCP throughput for small message sizes (~200bytes) is harmed. Only enable ioeventfd for virtio-blk for now. Care must be taken not to interfere with vhost-net, which uses host notifiers. If the set_host_notifier() API is used by a device virtio-pci will disable virtio-ioeventfd and let the device deal with host notifiers as it wishes. Finally, there used to be a limit of 6 KVM io bus devices inside the kernel. On such a kernel, don't use ioeventfd for virtqueue host notification since the limit is reached too easily. This ensures that existing vhost-net setups (which always use ioeventfd) have ioeventfds available so they can continue to work. After migration and on VM change state (running/paused) virtio-ioeventfd will enable/disable itself. * VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK -> enable virtio-ioeventfd * !VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK -> disable virtio-ioeventfd * virtio_pci_set_host_notifier() -> disable virtio-ioeventfd * vm_change_state(running=0) -> disable virtio-ioeventfd * vm_change_state(running=1) -> enable virtio-ioeventfd Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2010-10-07virtio: change set guest notifier to per-deviceMichael S. Tsirkin

2010-02-10block: add topology qdev propertiesChristoph Hellwig
Add three new qdev properties to export block topology information to the guest. This is needed to get optimal I/O alignment for RAID arrays or SSDs. The options are: - physical_block_size to specify the physical block size of the device, this is going to increase from 512 bytes to 4096 kilobytes for many modern storage devices - min_io_size to specify the minimal I/O size without performance impact, this is typically set to the RAID chunk size for arrays. - opt_io_size to specify the optimal sustained I/O size, this is typically the RAID stripe width for arrays. I decided to not auto-probe these values from blkid which might easily be possible as I don't know how to deal with these issues on migration. Note that we specificly only set the physical_block_size, and not the logial one which is the unit all I/O is described in. The reason for that is that IDE does not support increasing the logical block size and at last for now I want to stick to one meachnisms in queue and allow for easy switching of transports for a given backing image which would not be possible if scsi and virtio use real 4k sectors, while ide only uses the physical block exponent. To make this more common for the different block drivers introduce a new BlockConf structure holding all common block properties and a DEFINE_BLOCK_PROPERTIES macro to add them all together, mirroring what is done for network drivers. Also switch over all block drivers to use it, except for the floppy driver which has weird driveA/driveB properties and probably won't require any advanced block options ever. Example usage for a virtio device with 4k physical block size and 8k optimal I/O size: -drive file=scratch.img,media=disk,cache=none,id=scratch \ -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=scratch,physical_block_size=4096,opt_io_size=8192 aliguori: updated patch to take into account BLOCK events Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2010-01-20virtio-console: qdev conversion, new virtio-serial-busAmit Shah
This commit converts the virtio-console device to create a new virtio-serial bus that can host console and generic serial ports. The file hosting this code is now called virtio-serial-bus.c. The virtio console is now a very simple qdev device that sits on the virtio-serial-bus and communicates between the bus and qemu's chardevs. This commit also includes a few changes to the virtio backing code for pci and s390 to spawn the virtio-serial bus. As a result of the qdev conversion, we get rid of a lot of legacy code. The old-style way of instantiating a virtio console using -virtioconsole ... is maintained, but the new, preferred way is to use -device virtio-serial -device virtconsole,chardev=... With this commit, multiple devices as well as multiple ports with a single device can be supported. For multiple ports support, each port gets an IO vq pair. Since the guest needs to know in advance how many vqs a particular device will need, we have to set this number as a property of the virtio-serial device and also as a config option. In addition, we also spawn a pair of control IO vqs. This is an internal channel meant for guest-host communication for things like port open/close, sending port properties over to the guest, etc. This commit is a part of a series of other commits to get the full implementation of multiport support. Future commits will add other support as well as ride on the savevm version that we bump up here. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
