2009-11-25vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio serverMichael S. Tsirkin
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.

2009-11-20vbus: add a "vbus-proxy" bus model for vbus_driver objectsGregory Haskins
This will generally be used for hypervisors to publish any host-side virtual devices up to a guest. The guest will have the opportunity to consume any devices present on the vbus-proxy as if they were platform devices, similar to existing buses like PCI. Signed-off-by: Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com>
2009-11-20ioq: Add basic definitions for a shared-memory, lockless queueGregory Haskins
IOQ allows asynchronous communication between two end-points via a common shared-memory region. Memory is synchronized using pure barriers (i.e. lockless), and updates are communicated via an embedded shm-signal. The design of the interface allows one code base to universally provide both sides of a given channel. We will use this mechanism later in the series to efficiently move data in and out of a guest kernel from various sources, including both infrastructure level and application level transports. Signed-off-by: Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com>
2009-11-20shm-signal: shared-memory signalsGregory Haskins
shm-signal provides a generic shared-memory based bidirectional signaling mechanism. It is used in conjunction with an existing signal transport (such as posix-signals, interrupts, pipes, etc) to increase the efficiency of the transport since the state information is directly accessible to both sides of the link. The shared-memory design provides very cheap access to features such as event-masking and spurious delivery mititgation, and is useful implementing higher level shared-memory constructs such as rings. We will use this mechanism as the basis for a shared-memory interface later in the series. Signed-off-by: Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com>
