Subject: [PATCH v11 01/14] s390/vfio-ap: No need to disable IRQ after queue reset

The queues assigned to a matrix mediated device are currently reset when:

* The VFIO_DEVICE_RESET ioctl is invoked
* The mdev fd is closed by userspace (QEMU)
* The mdev is removed from sysfs.

Immediately after the reset of a queue, a call is made to disable
interrupts for the queue. This is entirely unnecessary because the reset of
a queue disables interrupts, so this will be removed.

Since interrupt processing may have been enabled by the guest, it may also
be necessary to clean up the resources used for interrupt processing. Part
of the cleanup operation requires a reference to KVM, so a check is also
being added to ensure the reference to KVM exists. The reason is because
the release callback - invoked when userspace closes the mdev fd - removes
the reference to KVM. When the remove callback - called when the mdev is
removed from sysfs - is subsequently invoked, there will be no reference to
KVM when the cleanup is performed.

This patch will also do a bit of refactoring due to the fact that the
remove callback, implemented in vfio_ap_drv.c, disables the queue after
resetting it. Instead of the remove callback making a call into the
vfio_ap_ops.c to clean up the resources used for interrupt processing,
let's move the probe and remove callbacks into the vfio_ap_ops.c
file keep all code related to managing queues in a single file.

This function needs to be made static because it is no longer defined in

What about the situation when vfio_ap_mdev_group_notifier() is called to
tell us that our pointer to KVM is about to become invalid? Do we need to
clean up the IRQ stuff there?

It would have been helpful to split out the refactoring as a separate
patch. This way it is harder to review the code that got moved, because
it is intermingled with the changes that intend to change behavior.

Here is the check that the kvm reference exists, you mentioned in the
cover letter. You make only the gisc_unregister depend on it, because
that's what is going to explode.

But I'm actually wondering if "KVM is gone but we still haven't cleaned
up our aqic resources" is valid. I argue that it is not. The two
resources we manage are the gisc registration and the pinned page. I
argue that it makes on sense to keep what was the guests page pinned,
if here is no guest associated (we don't have KVM).

I assume the cleanup is supposed to be atomic from the perspective of
other threads/contexts, so I expect the cleanup either to be fully done
or not not entered the critical section.

So !kvm && (q->saved_isc != VFIO_AP_ISC_INVALID || q->saved_pfn) is a
bug. Isn't it?

In that sense this change would only hide the actual problem.

Is the scenario we are talking about something that can happen, or is
this just about programming defensively?

In any case, I don't think this is a good idea. We can be defensive
about it, but we have to do it differently.

What is the purpose of this? Doesn't the preceding vfio_ap_get_queue()
already set q->matrix_mdev?

Is it safe to do vfio_ap_free_aqic_resources() at this point? I don't
think so. I mean does the current code (and vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue()
in particular guarantee that the reset is actually done when we arrive
here)? BTW, I think we have a similar problem with the current code as
well.

Under what circumstances do we expect !q? If we don't, then we need to
complain one way or another.

I believe that each time we call vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue(), we will
also want to call vfio_ap_free_aqic_resources(q) to clean up our aqic
resources associated with the queue -- if any. So I would really prefer
having a function that does both.

What is the benefit of rewriting this? You introduced
queue just to do queue->ap_dev to get to the apdev you
have in hand in the first place.

After reading this question, I decided to do some tracing using
printk's and learned that the vfio_ap_mdev_group_notifier()
function does not get called when the guest is shutdown. The reason
for this is because the vfio_ap_mdev_release() function, which is called
before the KVM pointer is invalidated, unregisters the group notifier.

I took a look at some of the other drivers that register a group
notifier in the mdev_parent_ops.open callback and each unregistered
the notifier in the mdev_parent_ops.release callback.

So, to answer your question, there is no need to cleanup the IRQ
stuff in the vfio_ap_mdev_group_notifier() function since it will
not get called when the KVM pointer is invalidated. The cleanup
should be done in the vfio_ap_mdev_release() function that gets
called when the mdev fd is closed.

If the return code from the vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue() function
is zero, then yes, we are guaranteed the reset was done and the
queue is empty.  The function returns a non-zero return code if
the reset fails or the queue the reset did not complete within a given
amount of time, so maybe we shouldn't free AQIC resources when
we get a non-zero return code from the reset function?

There are three occasions when the vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queues()
is called:
1. When the VFIO_DEVICE_RESET ioctl is invoked from userspace
    (i.e., when the guest is started)
2. When the mdev fd is closed (vfio_ap_mdev_release())
3. When the mdev is removed (vfio_ap_mdev_remove())

The IRQ resources are initialized when the PQAP(AQIC)
is intercepted to enable interrupts. This would occur after
the guest boots and the AP bus initializes. So, 1 would
presumably occur before that happens. I couldn't find
anywhere in the AP bus or zcrypt code where a PQAP(AQIC)
is executed to disable interrupts, so my assumption is
that IRQ disablement is accomplished by a reset on
the guest. I'll have to ask Harald about that. So, 2 would
occur when the guest is about to terminate and 3
would occur only after the guest is terminated. In any
case, it seems that IRQ resources should be cleaned up.
Maybe it would be more appropriate to do that in the
vfio_ap_mdev_release() and vfio_ap_mdev_remove()
functions themselves?

In the current code (i.e., prior to introducing the subsequent hot
plug patches), an APQN can not be assigned to an mdev unless it
references a queue device bound to the vfio_ap device driver; however,
there is nothing preventing a queue device from getting unbound
while the guest is running (one of the problems mostly resolved by this
series). In that case, q would be NULL.

As stated above, I don't believe PQAP(AQIC) is ever called by
the AP bus or zcrypt to disable IRQs, but I could be wrong about
that so I'll verify with Harald. If that is the case, then it would
make sense to free IRQ resources when a queue completes.
I can either add a function that does both and call it instead of
vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue(). What say you?

I'm not quite sure what you're asking. This function is
the callback function specified via the function pointer
specified via the remove field of the struct ap_driver
when the vfio_ap device driver is registered with the
AP bus. That callback function takes a struct ap_device
as a parameter. What am I missing here?

After further review, I've come to the conclusion it makes
sense to cleanup the IRQ resources only in the vfio_ap_mdev_release()
function for the following reasons:
1. The KVM pointer should still be available because it is not invalidated
    until after the release callback is invoked.
2. The release callback is part of normal guest termination, so interrupt
    processing will presumably no longer be necessary for the guest.
3. The zcrypt drivers on the guest do not disable interrupt processing
    via the PQAP(AQIC) instruction (I verified this with Harald), so
there is
    no opportunity to clean up IRQ on interception of IRQ disable.
4. It makes no sense to clean up IRQ resources in the vfio_ap_mdev_remove()
    function because the function disallows removal of the mdev when
the KVM
    pointer is still valid because it is assumed the guest is still
running at that point

You say if vfio_ap_mdev_group_notifier() is called to tell us
that KVM going away, then it is a bug?

If that is the case, I would like that reflected in the code! By that I
mean at logging an error at least (if not BUG_ON).

I've read up on this and I disagree. We should discuss this offline.

If the queue is gone, or broken, it won't produce interrupts or poke the
notifier bit, and we should clean up the AQIC resources.

I'm a bit confused. But I think you are wrong. What happens when the
guest reIPLs? I guess the subsystem reset should also do the
VFIO_DEVICE_RESET ioctl, and that has to reset the queues and disable
the interrupts. Or?

But if the queue does not belong to us any more it does not make sense
call vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue() on it's APQN, or?

I think we should have

if(!q)
continue;
at the very beginning of the loop body, or we want to be sure that q is
not null.

Please compare the removed function vfio_ap_queue_dev_remove() with the
added function vfio_ap_mdev_remove_queue() line by line. It should
become clear.

Maybe you are confusing things here; my statement is specific to the return
code from the vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue() function, not the response code
from the PQAP(ZAPQ) instruction. The vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queue()
function issues the PQAP(ZAPQ) instruction and if the status response code
is 0 indicating the reset was successfully initiated, it waits for the
queue to empty. When the queue is empty, it returns 0 to indicate
the queue is reset. If the queue does not become empty after a period of
time,
it will issue a warning (WARN_ON_ONCE) and return 0. In that case, I suppose
there is no guarantee the reset was done, so maybe a change needs to be
made there such as a non-zero return code.

True, which is what the code provided by this patch does; however,
the AQIC resources should be cleaned up only if the KVM pointer is
not NULL for reasons discussed elsewhere.

What did I say that is wrong? I think you are referring
to my statement about the VFIO_DEVICE_RESET ioctl.
I am not knowledgeable about all of the circumstances
under which the VFIO_DEVICE_RESET ioctl is invoked,
but I know for a fact that it is invoked when the guest is
started as I've verified that via tracing. On the other hand,
I suspect you are correct in assuming it is also invoked on
a subsystem reset from the guest, so that also argues for
cleaning up the IRQ resources after a reset as long as
the KVM pointer is valid.

If the notifier gets called after the notifier is unregistered then
yes, I would say that is a bug; however, my tracing showed that
the notifier does not get called precisely because it is unregistered
in the release callback.

I do not know whether or not there are other circumstances under
which the notifier can get invoked before the release callback to
make notification that the KVM pointer has been invalidated, so
I don't think this would be appropriate. I think we should just
process the call by setting the matrix_mdev->kvm pointer to
NULL and decrement the reference count to kvm.

Maybe someone from the VFIO team can provide some better
insight.

This is precisely why we prevent a queue from being taken away
from vfio_ap (the in-use callback) when its APQN is assigned to an
mdev in this patch series. On the other hand, this is a very good
point.

After thinking about this a bit more, I don't think it makes sense to make
this change in this patch. For the current implementation, it is incumbent
upon the system administrator to ensure that a queue device is not unbound
from the vfio_ap device driver if its APQN is assigned to an mdev, so the
assumption here is that any APQN assigned to the mdev is (or was) bound to
the vfio_ap driver. If it was erroneously unbound while in use by a guest,
then both the guest and possibly the zcrypt driver will have simultaneous
access (one of the things fixed by this patch series). In that case, I think
it ought to be reset regardless of whether it is bound to vfio_ap or not.

Having said that, I think it makes sense to make the change you recommend
in patch 03/14. In that patch, the vfio_ap_queue object is retrieved
from the
matrix_mdev. Since these queue objects are linked only when the queue
device is probed and unlinked when the the queue device is removed and
a queue device can not get bound to another driver while its APQN is
assigned
to an mdev, it would make perfect sense to forego reset of a queue when
its APQN is assigned to an mdev.

I've overlooked the wait for empty. Maybe that return 0 had a part in
it. I now remember me insisting on having the wait code added when the
interrupt support was in the make. Sorry!

If we have given up on out of retries retries, we are in trouble anyway.

Yes, but these should be cleaned up before the KVM pointer becomes
null. We don't want to keep the page with the notifier byte pinned

No, we do not want to keep the page forever. I probably should
have been clearer. There are times we do a reset - e.g., on remove
of the mdev - at which time there should be no KVM pointer, or
else the remove will not be allowed. Of course, we won't do the
reset either, so I guess you can ignore my comment. If there is
no KVM pointer yet a page remains pinned, something bad
happened.
