Subject: [PATCH v2 00/12] KVM: Add asynchronous page fault for PV guest.

KVM virtuaize guest memory by means of shadow pages or HW assistance
like NPT/EPT. Not all memory used by a guest is mapped into the guest
address space or even present in a host memory at any given time.
When vcpu tries to access memory page that is not mapped into guest
address space KVM is notified about it. KVM maps the page into guest
address space and resumes vcpu execution. If the page is swapped out
from host memory vcpu execution is suspended till page is not swapped
into the memory again. This is inefficient since vcpu can do other work
(run other task or serve interrupts) while page gets swapped in.

To overcome this inefficient this patch series implements "asynchronous
page fault" for paravirtualized KVM guests. If a page that vcpu is trying
to access is swapped out KVM sends async PF to the vcpu and continues vcpu
execution. Requested page is swapped in by another thread in parallel.
When vcpu gets async PF it puts the task that faulted to sleep until
"wake up" interrupt is delivered. When page is brought to host memory
KVM sends "wake up" interrupt and the guest task resumes execution.

Changes:
v1->v2
Use MSR instead of hypercall.
Move most of the code into arch independent place.
halt inside a guest instead of doing "wait for page" hypercall if
preemption is disabled.

Gleb Natapov (12):
Move kvm_smp_prepare_boot_cpu() from kvmclock.c to kvm.c.
Add PV MSR to enable asynchronous page faults delivery.
Add async PF initialization to PV guest.
Add "handle page fault" PV helper.
Handle asynchronous page fault in a PV guest.
Export __get_user_pages_fast.
Add get_user_pages() variant that fails if major fault is required.
Inject asynchronous page fault into a guest if page is swapped out.
Retry fault before vmentry
Maintain preemptability count even for !CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels
Handle async PF in non preemptable context.
Send async PF when guest is not in userspace too.

Subject: [PATCH v2 01/12] Move kvm_smp_prepare_boot_cpu() from kvmclock.c to kvm.c.

Async PF also needs to hook into smp_prepare_boot_cpu so move the hook
into generic code.

Subject: [PATCH v2 05/12] Handle asynchronous page fault in a PV guest.

Asynchronous page fault notifies vcpu that page it is trying to access
is swapped out by a host. In response guest puts a task that caused the
fault to sleep until page is swapped in again. When missing page is
brought back into the memory guest is notified and task resumes execution.

Subject: [PATCH v2 08/12] Inject asynchronous page fault into a guest if page is swapped out.

If guest access swapped out memory do not swap it in from vcpu thread
context. Setup slow work to do swapping and send async page fault to
a guest.

Allow async page fault injection only when guest is in user mode since
otherwise guest may be in non-sleepable context and will not be able to
reschedule.

[permalink] [raw]
Subject: [PATCH v2 09/12] Retry fault before vmentry

When page is swapped in it is mapped into guest memory only after guest
tries to access it again and generate another fault. To save this fault
we can map it immediately since we know that guest is going to access
the page.

Subject: [PATCH v2 10/12] Maintain preemptability count even for !CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels

Do not preempt kernel. Just maintain counter to know if task can be rescheduled.
Asynchronous page fault may be delivered while spinlock is held or current
process can't be preempted for other reasons. KVM uses preempt_count() to check if preemptions is allowed and schedule other process if possible. This works
with preemptable kernels since they maintain accurate information about
preemptability in preempt_count. This patch make non-preemptable kernel
maintain accurate information in preempt_count too.

That's a bit daft, the pagefault handler is already arch specific, so
you're placing an arch_ hook into arch code, that doesn't make sense.

I'm thinking you're going to have to convince some people this won't
slow them down for no good.

Personally I always have PREEMPT=y, but other people seem to feel
strongly about not doing so.

I saw old discussions about this in mailing list archives. Usually
someone wanted to use in_atomic() in driver code and this, of course,
caused the resistant. In this case, I think, the use is legitimate.

It is possible to add one more config option to enable reliable
preempt_count() without enabling preemption or make async pf be
dependable on PREEMPT=y. Don't like both of this options especially first
one. There are more then enough options already.

This adds significant overhead for the !PREEMPT case adding lots of code

AIM9 (reaim9)?

Any test suite will do that tests OS performance.

Latency will also be negatively impacted. There are already significant
regressions in recent kernel releases so many of us who are sensitive
to these issues just stick with old kernels (2.6.22 f.e.) and hope
that the upstream issues are worked out at some point.

There is also lldiag package in my directory. See

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/christoph/lldiag

Try the latency test and the mcast test. Localhost multicast is typically
a good test for kernel performance.

There is also the page fault test that Kamezawa-san posted recently in the
thread where we tried to deal with the long term mmap_sem issues.

Please use MSRs from the range 0x4b564dxx. The numbers below are
reserved by Intel (and in fact used by the old Pentiums).

Need documentation for the new MSR, say in Documentation/kvm/msr.txt.

What if the memory slot arrangement changes? This needs to be

Need to check before setting the msr value, so subsequent reads return
the old value.

Need to check that bits 1:5 are zero. I think it's cleaner to move all
of the code to kvm_pv_enable_async_pf(), to have everything in one place.

What if the guest is now handling a previous asynv pf or ready
notification? We're clobbering the data structure.

Okay, so this is only allowed with interrupts disabled. Need to make
sure the entire pf path up to async pf executes with interrupts disabled.

Why check cr3 here?

I'd be slightly happier if we had a page_fault_other_cr3() op that
switched cr3, called the original, then switched back (the tdp version
need not change anything).

If cr3 == vcpu->arch.cr3 here we know that this is guest generated page
fault so we try to do it async. Otherwise this is async page fault code
try to establish mapping, so need to go through async logic.
Theoretically page that was just swapped in can be swapped out once again at
this point and in this case we need to go to sleep here otherwise things
may go wrong.

Below are results for kernel 2.6.32-rc8 with and without the patch (only
this single patch is applied).

Forgot to tell. The results are average between 5 different runs.

Would be good to also report the variance over those 5 runs, allows us
to see if the difference is within the noise.

That's the stddev column.

Got pointed to the fact that there is a stddev column right there.

Must be Monday or something ;-)

Ok so there is some variance in tests as usual due to cacheline placement.
But it seems that overall we are looking at a 1-2% regression.
