The Hardware Feedback Interface (HFI) is a feature that allows hardware
to provide guidance to the operating system scheduler through a hardware
feedback interface structure (HFI table) in memory [1], so that the
scheduler can perform optimal workload scheduling.
ITD (Intel Thread Director) and HFI features both depend on the HFI
table, but their HFI tables are slightly different. The HFI table
provided by the ITD feature has 4 classes (in terms of more columns
in the table) and the native HFI feature supports 1 class [2].
In fact, the size of the HFI table is determined by the feature bit that
the processor supports, but the range of data updates in the table
is determined by the feature actually enabled (HFI or ITD) [3], which is
controlled by MSR_IA32_HW_FEEDBACK_CONFIG.
To benefit the scheduling in VM with HFI/ITD, we need to maintain
virtual HFI tables in KVM. The virtual HFI table is based on the real
HFI table. We extract the HFI entries corresponding to the pCPU that the
vCPU is running on, and reorganize these actual entries into a new
virtual HFI table with the vCPU's HFI index.
Also, to simplify the logic, before the emulation of ITD is supported,
we build virtual HFI table based on HFI feature by default (i.e. only 1
class is supported, based on class 0 of real hardware).
Add the interfaces to initialize and build the virtual HFI table, and to
inject the thermal interrupt into the VM to notify about HFI updates.
