What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.
There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)
common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.
What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.
How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.
Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.
Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use
Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

The retry logic in ug_putc() is broken.
If the TX fifo is not ready and the counter runs out it will have a
value of -1 and no transfer should be attempted. Also, a counter
with a value of 0 means that the TX fifo got ready in the last try
and the transfer should be attempted.

Since commit 57b150cce8e004ddd36330490a68bfb59b7271e9, desc->affinity
of an irq is changed after calling desc->chip->set_affinity.
Therefore we need to fix the irq_choose_cpu() not to depend on the
desc->affinity for new mask.

Commit d28513bc7f675d28b479db666d572e078ecf182d ("Fix bug in pagetable
cache cleanup with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT"), itself a fix for
breakage caused by an earlier clean up patch of mine, contains a
stupid bug. I changed the parameters of the subpage_protection()
function, but failed to update one of the callers.
This patch fixes it, and replaces a void * with a typed pointer so
that the compiler will warn on such an error in future.

On machines using the Apple U4 bridge (AKA IBM CPC945) PCIe interface such
as the latest generation G5 machines x16 slot or the x16 slot of the
PowerStation, MSIs are currently broken (and will oops when enabling).
This fixes the oops and implements proper support for those. Instead of
using the PCIe <-> HT bridge conversion, on such slots we need to use
a bunch of magic registers in the bridge as the MSI target, encoding
the interrupt number in the low bits of the address itself

This patch fixes the handling of VSX alignment faults in little-endian
mode (the current code assumes the processor is in big-endian mode).
The patch also makes the handlers clear the top 8 bytes of the register
when handling an 8 byte VSX load.

Now we have high res timers there is less of a reason for a high HZ value.
Furthermore I think there a few reasons we should reduce HZ to 100:
- Timer interrupt overhead. While this overhead is small, there are
applications that are very sensitive to jitter (eg some HPC apps).
- Issues with the timer wheel code. When coming out of NO_HZ idle we work our
way through the timer code one tick at a time. If we have been idle a long
time, this adds up - I sometimes see milliseconds of time spent in that
loop.
Long term we should fix the timer wheel algorithm, but for now if we reduce
HZ then we reduce the amount of work the timer code has to do when coming
out of idle.

The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages
over time that are not migratable. On a long running system this can
severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug
memory remove operation.
This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier.
The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in
the range specified. This is used to determine if all of the used pages
in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier
chain). The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be
removed. The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be
called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations
that fail due to other handlers.
CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and
resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to
adjust.

This is currently needed on the Nintendo Wii video game console
due to the workaround introduced in "wii: use both mem1 and mem2 as ram".
This will no longer be needed when proper discontig memory support
for 32-bit PowerPC is added to the kernel.

Add a flag to let a platform ioremap memory regions marked as reserved.
This flag will be used later by the Nintendo Wii support code to allow
ioremapping the I/O region sitting between MEM1 and MEM2 and marked
as reserved RAM in the patch "wii: use both mem1 and mem2 as ram".
This will no longer be needed when proper discontig memory support
for 32-bit PowerPC is added to the kernel.

The Nintendo Wii video game console has two discontiguous RAM regions:
- MEM1: 24MB @ 0x00000000
- MEM2: 64MB @ 0x10000000
Unfortunately, the kernel currently does not support discontiguous RAM
memory regions on 32-bit PowerPC platforms.
This patch adds a series of workarounds to allow the use of the second
memory region (MEM2) as RAM by the kernel.
Basically, a single range of memory from the beginning of MEM1 to the
end of MEM2 is reported to the kernel, and a memory reservation is
created for the hole between MEM1 and MEM2.
With this patch the system is able to use all the available RAM and not
just ~27% of it.
This will no longer be needed when proper discontig memory support
for 32-bit PowerPC is added to the kernel.

The top portion of MEM2 (the second 64MB memory block) in the Nintendo
Wii video game console is used by the firmware running on the Starlet
processor.
Add code to calculate the portion of MEM2 safely useable by the
Broadway processor. When running under the 'mini' firmware this is
easily determined from an in-memory header. Otherwise, a safe default
is used.

Add support for using the USB Gecko adapter as an early debugging
console on the Nintendo GameCube and Wii video game consoles.
The USB Gecko is a 3rd party memory card interface adapter that provides
a EXI (External Interface) to USB serial converter.

Add a set of entries to the fixmap table to allow usage of known
reserved virtual address space by early debug code.
The address space reserved is the top 128K of the 32-bit address
space. This allows, if required, the use of a BAT to do the mappings.
