2023-02-06migration/dirtyrate: Show sample pages only in page-sampling modeZhenzhong Duan
The value of "Sample Pages" is confusing in mode other than page-sampling. See below: (qemu) calc_dirty_rate -b 10 520 (qemu) info dirty_rate Status: measuring Start Time: 11646834 (ms) Sample Pages: 520 (per GB) Period: 10 (sec) Mode: dirty-bitmap Dirty rate: (not ready) (qemu) info dirty_rate Status: measured Start Time: 11646834 (ms) Sample Pages: 0 (per GB) Period: 10 (sec) Mode: dirty-bitmap Dirty rate: 2 (MB/s) While it's totally useless in dirty-ring and dirty-bitmap mode, fix to show it only in page-sampling mode.

upon errors. As the documentation in include/io/channel.h states, only -1 and QIO_CHANNEL_ERR_BLOCK should be returned upon error. Other values have the potential to confuse the call sites. error_setg is used rather than error_setg_errno, because there are certain code paths where -1 (as a non-errno) is propagated up (e.g. starting from qemu_rdma_block_for_wrid or qemu_rdma_post_recv_control) all the way to qio_channel_rdma_{readv,writev}.

The downtime should be displayed during postcopy phase because the switchover phase is done. OTOH it's weird to show "expected downtime" which can confuse what does that mean if the switchover has already happened anyway.

2023-02-06migration/savevm: Allow immutable device state to be migrated early (i.e., ↵David Hildenbrand
before RAM) For virtio-mem, we want to have the plugged/unplugged state of memory blocks available before migrating any actual RAM content, and perform sanity checks before touching anything on the destination. This information is immutable on the migration source while migration is active, We want to use this information for proper preallocation support with migration: currently, we don't preallocate memory on the migration target, and especially with hugetlb, we can easily run out of hugetlb pages during RAM migration and will crash (SIGBUS) instead of catching this gracefully via preallocation. Migrating device state via a VMSD before we start iterating is currently impossible: the only approach that would be possible is avoiding a VMSD and migrating state manually during save_setup(), to be restored during load_state(). Let's allow for migrating device state via a VMSD early, during the setup phase in qemu_savevm_state_setup(). To keep it simple, we indicate applicable VMSD's using an "early_setup" flag. Note that only very selected devices (i.e., ones seriously messing with RAM setup) are supposed to make use of such early state migration. While at it, also use a bool for the "unmigratable" member.

2023-02-06migration/ram: Optimize ram_write_tracking_start() for RamDiscardManagerDavid Hildenbrand
ram_block_populate_read() already optimizes for RamDiscardManager. However, ram_write_tracking_start() will still try protecting discarded memory ranges. Let's optimize, because discarded ranges don't map any pages and (1) For anonymous memory, trying to protect using uffd-wp without a mapped page is ignored by the kernel and consequently a NOP. (2) For shared/file-backed memory, we will fill present page tables in the range with PTE markers. However, we will even allocate page tables just to fill them with unnecessary PTE markers and effectively waste memory.

2023-02-06migration/ram: Don't explicitly unprotect when unregistering uffd-wpDavid Hildenbrand
When unregistering uffd-wp, older kernels before commit f369b07c86143 ("mm/uffd:reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode") won't clear the uffd-wp PTE bit. When re-registering uffd-wp, the previous uffd-wp PTE bits would trigger again. With above commit, the kernel will clear the uffd-wp PTE bits when unregistering itself. Consequently, we'll clear the uffd-wp PTE bits now twice -- whereby we don't care about clearing them at all: a new background snapshot will re-register uffd-wp and re-protect all memory either way. So let's skip the manual clearing of uffd-wp. If ever relevant, we could clear conditionally in uffd_unregister_memory() -- we just need a way to figure out more recent kernels.

One example is Alpha has 8K page size and migration will start to crash the source QEMU when running Alpha migration on x86. Fix it by detecting that case and set host start/end just to cover the single page to be migrated.

2022-12-15migration: Remove old preempt code around state maintainancePeter Xu
With the new code to send pages in rp-return thread, there's little help to keep lots of the old code on maintaining the preempt state in migration thread, because the new way should always be faster.. Then if we'll always send pages in the rp-return thread anyway, we don't need those logic to maintain preempt state anymore because now we serialize things using the mutex directly instead of using those fields. It's very unfortunate to have those code for a short period, but that's still one intermediate step that we noticed the next bottleneck on the migration thread. Now what we can do best is to drop unnecessary code as long as the new code is stable to reduce the burden. It's actually a good thing because the new "sending page in rp-return thread" model is (IMHO) even cleaner and with better performance. Remove the old code that was responsible for maintaining preempt states, at the meantime also remove x-postcopy-preempt-break-huge parameter because with concurrent sender threads we don't really need to break-huge anymore.

With all the facilities ready, send the requested page directly in the rp-return thread rather than queuing it in the request queue, if and only if postcopy preempt is enabled. It can achieve so because it uses separate channel for sending urgent pages. The only shared data is bitmap and it's protected by the bitmap_mutex. Note that since we're moving the ownership of the urgent channel from the migration thread to rp thread it also means the rp thread is responsible for managing the qemufile, e.g. properly close it when pausing migration happens. For this, let migration_release_from_dst_file to cover shutdown of the urgent channel too, renaming it as migration_release_dst_files() to better show what it does.

Here we declared RAM_CHANNEL_MAX instances, preparing for postcopy to use it, even though this patch has not yet to start using the 2nd instance. This should not have any functional change per se, but it already starts to export PSS information via the RAMState, so that e.g. one PSS channel can start to reference the other PSS channel. Always protect PSS access using the same RAMState.bitmap_mutex. We already do so, so no code change needed, just some comment update.

2022-12-15migration: Introduce pss_channelPeter Xu
Introduce pss_channel for PageSearchStatus, define it as "the migration channel to be used to transfer this host page". We used to have rs->f, which is a mirror to MigrationState.to_dst_file. After postcopy preempt initial version, rs->f can be dynamically changed depending on which channel we want to use. But that later work still doesn't grant full concurrency of sending pages in e.g. different threads, because rs->f can either be the PRECOPY channel or POSTCOPY channel. This needs to be per-thread too. PageSearchStatus is actually a good piece of struct which we can leverage if we want to have multiple threads sending pages. Sending a single guest page may not make sense, so we make the granule to be "host page", and in the PSS structure we allow specify a QEMUFile* to migrate a specific host page. Then we open the possibility to specify different channels in different threads with different PSS structures. The PSS prefix can be slightly misleading here because e.g. for the upcoming usage of postcopy channel/thread it's not "searching" (or, scanning) at all but sending the explicit page that was requested. However since PSS existed for some years keep it as-is until someone complains. This patch mostly (simply) replace rs->f with pss->pss_channel only. No functional change intended for this patch yet. But it does prepare to finally drop rs->f, and make ram_save_guest_page() thread safe.

2022-12-15migration: Teach PSS about host pagePeter Xu
Migration code has a lot to do with host pages. Teaching PSS core about the idea of host page helps a lot and makes the code clean. Meanwhile, this prepares for the future changes that can leverage the new PSS helpers that this patch introduces to send host page in another thread. Three more fields are introduced for this: (1) host_page_sending: this is set to true when QEMU is sending a host page, false otherwise. (2) host_page_{start|end}: these point to the start/end of host page we're sending, and it's only valid when host_page_sending==true. For example, when we look up the next dirty page on the ramblock, with host_page_sending==true, we'll not try to look for anything beyond the current host page boundary. This can be slightly efficient than current code because currently we'll set pss->page to next dirty bit (which can be over current host page boundary) and reset it to host page boundary if we found it goes beyond that. With above, we can easily make migration_bitmap_find_dirty() self contained by updating pss->page properly. rs* parameter is removed because it's not even used in old code. When sending a host page, we should use the pss helpers like this: - pss_host_page_prepare(pss): called before sending host page - pss_within_range(pss): whether we're still working on the cur host page? - pss_host_page_finish(pss): called after sending a host page Then we can use ram_save_target_page() to save one small page. Currently ram_save_host_page() is still the only user. If there'll be another function to send host page (e.g. in return path thread) in the future, it should follow the same style.

It prepares for the possibility of concurrently sending pages in >1 threads using the function ram_save_host_page() because all threads may need the bitmap_mutex to operate on bitmaps, so that either sendmsg() or any kind of qemu_sem_wait() blocking for one thread will not block the other from progressing.

2022-12-15migration: Remove RAMState.f references in compression codePeter Xu
Removing referencing to RAMState.f in compress_page_with_multi_thread() and flush_compressed_data(). Compression code by default isn't compatible with having >1 channels (or it won't currently know which channel to flush the compressed data), so to make it simple we always flush on the default to_dst_file port until someone wants to add >1 ports support, as rs->f right now can really change (after postcopy preempt is introduced). There should be no functional change at all after patch applied, since as long as rs->f referenced in compression code, it must be to_dst_file.

2022-12-15migration: Cleanup xbzrle zero page cache update logicPeter Xu
The major change is to replace "!save_page_use_compression()" with "xbzrle_enabled" to make it clear. Reasonings: (1) When compression enabled, "!save_page_use_compression()" is exactly the same as checking "xbzrle_enabled". (2) When compression disabled, "!save_page_use_compression()" always return true. We used to try calling the xbzrle code, but after this change we won't, and we shouldn't need to. Since at it, drop the xbzrle_enabled check in xbzrle_cache_zero_page() because with this change it's not needed anymore.

2022-12-15migration: Take bitmap mutex when completing ram migrationPeter Xu
Any call to ram_find_and_save_block() needs to take the bitmap mutex. We used to not take it for most of ram_save_complete() because we thought we're the only one left using the bitmap, but it's not true after the preempt full patchset applied, since the return path can be taking it too.

2022-12-14qapi migration: Elide redundant has_FOO in generated CMarkus Armbruster
The has_FOO for pointer-valued FOO are redundant, except for arrays. They are also a nuisance to work with. Recent commit "qapi: Start to elide redundant has_FOO in generated C" provided the means to elide them step by step. This is the step for qapi/migration.json. Said commit explains the transformation in more detail. The invariant violations mentioned there do not occur here.

Tweak the semantic patch to drop redundant parenthesis around the return expression. Coccinelle drops a comment in hw/rdma/vmw/pvrdma_cmd.c; restored manually. Coccinelle messes up vmdk_co_create(), not sure why. Change dropped, will be done manually in the next commit. Line breaks in target/avr/cpu.h and hw/rdma/vmw/pvrdma_cmd.c tidied up manually. Whitespace in tools/virtiofsd/fuse_lowlevel.c tidied up manually. checkpatch.pl complains "return of an errno should typically be -ve" two times for hw/9pfs/9p-synth.c.

2022-11-21migration: Disable multifd explicitly with compressionPeter Xu
Multifd thread model does not work for compression, explicitly disable it. Note that previuosly even we can enable both of them, nothing will go wrong, because the compression code has higher priority so multifd feature will just be ignored. Now we'll fail even earlier at config time so the user should be aware of the consequence better. Note that there can be a slight chance of breaking existing users, but let's assume they're not majority and not serious users, or they should have found that multifd is not working already. With that, we can safely drop the check in ram_save_target_page() for using multifd, because when multifd=on then compression=off, then the removed check on save_page_use_compression() will also always return false too.

2022-11-21migration: Fix race on qemu_file_shutdown()Peter Xu
In qemu_file_shutdown(), there's a possible race if with current order of operation. There're two major things to do: (1) Do real shutdown() (e.g. shutdown() syscall on socket) (2) Update qemufile's last_error We must do (2) before (1) otherwise there can be a race condition like: page receiver other thread ------------- ------------ qemu_get_buffer() do shutdown() returns 0 (buffer all zero) (meanwhile we didn't check this retcode) try to detect IO error last_error==NULL, IO okay install ALL-ZERO page set last_error --> guest crash! To fix this, we can also check retval of qemu_get_buffer(), but not all APIs can be properly checked and ultimately we still need to go back to qemu_file_get_error(). E.g. qemu_get_byte() doesn't return error. Maybe some day a rework of qemufile API is really needed, but for now keep using qemu_file_get_error() and fix it by not allowing that race condition to happen. Here shutdown() is indeed special because the last_error was emulated. For real -EIO errors it'll always be set when e.g. sendmsg() error triggers so we won't miss those ones, only shutdown() is a bit tricky here. Cc: Daniel P.
