Subject: [PATCH v18 10/18] s390/vfio-ap: allow hot plug/unplug of AP devices when assigned/unassigned

Let's allow adapters, domains and control domains to be hot plugged
into and hot unplugged from a KVM guest using a matrix mdev when an
adapter, domain or control domain is assigned to or unassigned from
the matrix mdev.

Whenever an assignment or unassignment of an adapter, domain or control
domain is performed, the AP configuration assigned to the matrix
mediated device will be filtered and assigned to the AP control block
(APCB) that supplies the AP configuration to the guest so that no
adapter, domain or control domain that is not in the host's AP
configuration nor any APQN that does not reference a queue device bound
to the vfio_ap device driver is assigned.

After updating the APCB, if the mdev is in use by a KVM guest, it is
hot plugged into the guest to dynamically provide access to the adapters,
domains and control domains provided via the newly refreshed APCB.

Keep in mind that the matrix_dev->guests_lock must be taken outside of the
matrix_mdev->kvm->lock which in turn must be taken outside of the
matrix_dev->mdevs_lock in order to avoid circular lock dependencies (i.e.,
a lockdep splat).Consequently, the locking order for hot plugging the
guest's APCB must be:

matrix_dev->guests_lock => matrix_mdev->kvm->lock => matrix_dev->mdevs_lock

The idea was to indicate that the AP adapters, domains and control
domains configured in the shadow APCB are being hot plugged into
a running guest. Having said that, I can see your point. I'm not married to
the function name, but I would prefer to go with
'vfio_ap_update_guest_apcb()' to distinguish between the shadow and
the real apcb.

The reason I didn't do that is because we've already verified the
matrix_mdev->kvm in kvm_arch_crypto_set_masks(). I'm not sure what
it buys us, but I'm not adverse to making the change.

Makes sense, but I think I'll go with prev_shadow_apm, prev_shadow_aqm and
prev_shadow_adm. That seems more accurate since these are not the original
copies of the bitmaps, but copies of the previous versions prior to
filtering.

I'm going to have to disagree, this locking scheme makes no sense outside of
this series. It is only necessary because we now update a guest's APCB
whenever an adapter, domain or control domain is assigned or unassigned,
when a queue device is probed or removed and when the vfio_ap driver is
notified that the host's AP configuration has changed.

Prior to this series, a guest's APCB was updated only when the vfio_ap
driver was notified that the KVM pointer was set or cleared, so it was
only necessary to ensure the kvm->lock is taken before the matrix_dev->lock
in the functions that handle the VFIO_GROUP_NOTIFY_SET_KVM group
notification event. Prior to this, a patch series to introduce the
matrix_dev->guests lock
would make no sense because it is not needed to enforce the locking
order in those
functions listed in the previous paragraph because we didn't update the
guest's
APCB in those functions.

I didn't move it to be closer to where it is used, I moved it because it
was not
necessary to do the memset/set_bit_inv when not necessary to do so. Having
said that, it can definitely be moved after the vfio_ap_mdev_link_adapter().

The purpose of this bitmap is to limit the filtering to the new APID
being assigned
because there is no need to do filtering of adapters already assigned;
so, it is not
really a new apm per se. It might be more accurate to call it new_apid
or new_apids,
although there will only be one bit set in the bitmap.

Ditto on the responses.

This function updates a kvm guest's apcb. So let's rename it to
vfio_ap_update_apcb(). You can also call this function in vfio_ap_mdev_set_kvm,
instead of duplicating the code to call kvm_arch_crypto_set_masks().

your variable, shadow_adm, should be named original_adm. Since it represents
the original value before filtering. This makes the intent much more clear.
Same goes for the vars in vfio_ap_mdev_filter_matrix().

Simplifying the cdoe, and removing duplication by moving the locking code to a
function is probably a good thing. But I don't feel like this belongs to this
particular patch. In general, a patch should only do one thing, and ideally that
one thing should be as small as reasonably possible. This makes the patch easier
to read and to review.

I feel like, as much as possible, you should refactor the locking in a series
of patches that are all kept together. Ideally, they would be a patch series
completely separate from dynamic ap. After all, this series is already at 18
patches. :)

It looks like you moved the memset() and set_bit_inv() to be closer to where
"apm" is used, namely, the call to vfio_ap_mdev_filter_matrix(). Any reason you
cannot move it down under the call to vfio_ap_mdev_link_adapter()? That would
get it even closer to where it is used.

Also, I think renaming apm to apm_delta or apm_diff makes sense here. After all,
it is the difference between the original apm, and the new apm. The new apm
has an extra bit for the newly added adapter. Do I have that right? If so, I
think renaming the variable will make the code clearer.

Both of the above comments also apply to assign_domain_store().

It avoids code duplication which makes the driver smaller, and slightly
easier to read. It also reduces rework effort if/when mask handling ever
changes.

That works for me :) Thanks! In general, I like to avoid generic variable names
like "mask" or "thing" whenever possible. Especially if I'm dealing with multiple
instances of the same type of data within the same scope. Giving each variable a
specific name can really help de-obfuscate the code.

I don't understand the lock code enough to argue a whole lot here :) But I do still
think, at the very least, that your refactoring of the locking into get_locks/put_locks
functions really does belong in a separate patch. Refactoring is not directly related to
the hotplug/unplug. Also, this is not a minor refactor. This refactoring touches the code
all over the place and really just adds noise to this patch. That noise makes it harder
to review.

My main concern here was generic variables names. The "new_apm" will have exactly one
new bit set. That bit is the delta (or the difference) between the previously existing
apm, and the new apm, which will be the result of adding in whatever the "apid" bit is.
Therefore, it really is a delta, right? This was the basis for my suggestion of the
name. Its really not the "new" apm... its the difference between the old and new.

Okay, this is a little different than what you were asking for in your
previous review
comment in which you suggested the locking patches should be in a series
separate
from dynamic ap. This I can get on board with; however, we are now
talking about
increasing the number of patches in this series.

I overlooked the names you suggested - i.e., apm_delta/apm_diff - and
for some reason
beamed in on "new apm" as if you were suggesting that as the name of the
variable.
Of the two names, I prefer apm_delta, so I will go with that.
