Current mdev device create interface depends on fixed mdev type, which get uuid
from user to create instance of mdev device. If user wants to use customized
number of resource for mdev device, then only can create new mdev type for that
which may not be flexible.
To allow to create user defined resources for mdev, this RFC trys
to extend mdev create interface by adding new "instances=xxx" parameter
following uuid, for target mdev type if aggregation is supported, it can
create new mdev device which contains resources combined by number of
instances, e.g
echo "<uuid>,instances=10" > create
VM manager e.g libvirt can check mdev type with "aggregation" attribute
which can support this setting. And new sysfs attribute "instances" is
created for each mdev device to show allocated number. Default number
of 1 or no "instances" file can be used for compatibility check.
This RFC trys to create new KVMGT type with minimal vGPU resources which
can be combined with "instances=x" setting to allocate for user wanted
resources.

New subject: [libvirt] [RFC PATCH 1/2] vfio/mdev: Add new instances parameters for mdev create
For special mdev type which can aggregate instances for mdev device,
this extends mdev create interface by allowing extra "instances=xxx"
parameter, which is passed to mdev device model to be able to create
arbitrary bundled number of instances for target mdev device.
For created mdev device, also create new sysfs attr "instances" to
show. For compatibility, current default instances is 1.

New subject: [libvirt] [RFC PATCH 2/2] drm/i915/gvt: Add new aggregation type
New aggregation type is created for KVMGT which can be used with
new mdev create "instances=xxx" parameter to combine minimal resource
number for target instances, which can create user defined number
of resources.
User space checks whether there's "aggregation" attribute for mdev
type and "instances" parameter can't be larger than
"avail_instances".

VM manager e.g libvirt can check mdev type with "aggregation" attribute
which can support this setting. And new sysfs attribute "instances" is
created for each mdev device to show allocated number. Default number
of 1 or no "instances" file can be used for compatibility check.
This RFC trys to create new KVMGT type with minimal vGPU resources which
can be combined with "instances=x" setting to allocate for user wanted
resources.

This seems orthogonal to the way mdev types are meant to be used. Vendor
driver can provide the possible types to provide flexibility to the users.
I think the goal here is to define how we create a type that supports
arbitrary combinations of resources where the total number of those
resources my be sufficiently large that the parent driver enumerating
them all is not feasible.
Secondly, not always all resources defined for a particular mdev
type
can be multiplied, for example, a mdev type for vGPU that supports 2
heads, that can't be multiplied to use with 20 heads.
Not all types need to define themselves this way, aiui this is an
optional extension. Userspace can determine if this feature is
available with the new attribute and if they're not aware of the new
attribute, we operate in a backwards compatible mode where 'echo $UUID >
create' consumes one instance of that type. Mdev, like vfio, is device
agnostic, so while a vGPU example may have scaling issues that need to
be ironed out to implement this, those don't immediately negate the
value of this proposal. Thanks,
Alex

yeah, for vGPU we actually can have flexible config for memory size but
currently fixed by type definition. Although like for display config, we
are just sticking with 1 head config even for aggregate type.
Not all types need to define themselves this way, aiui this is an
optional extension. Userspace can determine if this feature is
available with the new attribute and if they're not aware of the new
attribute, we operate in a backwards compatible mode where 'echo $UUID >

yep, backward compatible is always ensured by this, so for no
aggregation attrib type, still keep current behavior, driver should
refuse "instances=" if set by user. One thing I'm concern is that
looks currently without changing mdev create ops interface, can't
carry that option for driver, or should we do with more general parameter?

A mdev type is set of parameters. If aggregation is on one parameter,
how can user know which parameter can be aggregated?

I think, if aggregation is not supported then vendor driver should fail
'create' with instance >1. That means every vendor driver would need a
change to handle this case.
Other way could be, structure mdev_parent_ops can have other function
pointer 'create_with_instances' which has instances as an argument.
Vendor driver which support aggregation will have to provide this
callback and existing vendor driver will need no change. Then in mdev core:
if (instances > 1) {
if (parent->ops->create_with_instances)
ret = parent->ops->create_with_instances(kobj, mdev, instances);
else
return -EINVAL;
} else
ret = parent->ops->create(kobj, mdev);

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH v2 0/4] New mdev type handling for aggregated resources
Current mdev device create interface depends on fixed mdev type, which get uuid
from user to create instance of mdev device. If user wants to use customized
number of resource for mdev device, then only can create new mdev type for that
which may not be flexible. This requirement comes not only from to be able to
allocate flexible resources for KVMGT, but also from Intel scalable IO
virtualization which would use vfio/mdev to be able to allocate arbitrary
resources on mdev instance. More info on [1] [2] [3].
To allow to create user defined resources for mdev, it trys to extend mdev
create interface by adding new "instances=xxx" parameter following uuid, for
target mdev type if aggregation is supported, it can create new mdev device
which contains resources combined by number of instances, e.g
echo "<uuid>,instances=10" > create
VM manager e.g libvirt can check mdev type with "aggregation" attribute which
can support this setting. If no "aggregation" attribute found for mdev type,
previous behavior is still kept for one instance allocation. And new sysfs
attribute "instances" is created for each mdev device to show allocated number.
This trys to create new KVMGT type with minimal vGPU resources which can be
combined with "instances=x" setting to allocate for user wanted resources.

For special mdev type which can aggregate instances for mdev device,
this extends mdev create interface by allowing extra "instances=xxx"
parameter, which is passed to mdev device model to be able to create
arbitrary bundled number of instances for target mdev device.

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH v2 3/4] drm/i915/gvt: Add new aggregation type support
New aggregation type is created for KVMGT which can be used
with new mdev create "instances=xxx" parameter to combine
minimal resource number for target instances, which can create
user defined number of resources. For KVMGT, aggregated resource
is determined by memory and fence resource allocation for target
number of instances.

<aggregation>
You are talking about "one instance" here. Can this be different for
the same type with different physical devices?
I would expect for normal mdev types, driver might expose like x2, x4, x8 types
which split hw resource equally. But for type with aggregation feature, it can
set user wanted number of instances. Sorry maybe my use of word was not clear, how
about "one example of type"?

Could there be a case where available_instances is n, but aggregation

via the "aggregation" attribute?
I don't think there could be a case for that. As for aggregation type,
it represents minimal resource allocated for a singleton, I can't see
any reason for possible m < n.

Let's think about the interface beyond the immediate needs. It seems
perfectly reasonable to me to think that a vendor driver might have a
large number of resources available, the ability to aggregate resources
beyond what's practical to enumerate with discrete types, yet have an
upper bound of how many resources can be aggregated for a single
instance. Thanks,

Maybe my question was confusing as well...
<aggregation> is an attribute that is exposed for a particular type
under a particular physical device.
- If <aggregation> is always the same for that particular type,
regardless of which physical device we're dealing with, let's just
drop the "one instance" sentence.
- If it instead depends on what physical device we're handling, I'd
write something like "The contents of this attribute depend both on
the type and on the particular instance."

This trys to create new KVMGT type with minimal vGPU resources which can be
combined with "instances=x" setting to allocate for user wanted resources.
"instances" makes me think this is arg helps to create multiple mdev
instances rather than consuming multiple instances for a single mdev.
You're already exposing the "aggregation" attribute, so doesn't
"aggregate" perhaps make more sense as the create option? We're asking
the driver to aggregate $NUM instances into a single mdev. The mdev
attribute should then perhaps also be "aggregated_instances".
The next user question for the interface might be what aspect of the
device gets multiplied by this aggregation? In i915 I see you're
multiplying the memory sizes by the instance, but clearly the
resolution doesn't change. I assume this is sort of like mdev types
themselves, ie. some degree of what a type means is buried in the
implementation and some degree of what some number of those types
aggregated together means is impossible to describe generically.
We're also going to need to add aggregation to the checklist for device
compatibility for migration, for example 1) is it the same mdev_type,
1a) are the aggregation counts the same (new), 2) is the host driver
compatible (TBD).
The count handling in create_store(), particularly MDEV_CREATE_OPT_LEN
looks a little suspicious. I think we should just be validating that
the string before the ',' or the entire string if there is no comma is
UUID length. Pass only that to uuid_le_to_bin(). We can then strncmp
as you have for "instances=" (or "aggregate=") but then let's be
sure
to end the string we pass to kstrtouint(), ie. assume there could be
further args.
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-vfio-mdev also needs to be updated
with this series.
I'm curious what libvirt folks and Kirti think of this, it looks like
it has a nice degree of backwards compatibility, both in the sysfs
interface and the vendor driver interface. Thanks,

Since libvirt doesn't have an API to create mdevs yet, this doesn't pose an
issue for us at the moment. I see this adds new optional sysfs attributes which
we could expose within our device capabilities XML, provided it doesn't use a
free form text, like the description attribute does.

I don't seem to clearly see the benefit here, so I have to ask, how is this
better and/or different from allowing a heterogeneous setup if one needs a more
performant instance in terms of more resources? Because to me, once you're able
to aggregate instances, I would assume that a simple "echo `uuid`" with a
different type should succeed as well and provide me (from user's perspective)
with the same results. Could you please clarify this to me, as well as what
resources/parameters are going to be impacted by aggregation?
I think you're suggesting that we could simply define new mdev types to
account for these higher aggregate instances, for example we can
define discrete types that are 2x, 3x, 4x, etc. the resource count of a
single instance. What I think we're trying to address with this
proposal is what happens when the resources available are exceptionally
large and they can be combined in arbitrary ways. For example if a
parent device can expose 10,000 resources and the granularity with
which we can create and mdev instance is 1, is it practical to create
10,000 mdev types or does it make more sense to expose a granularity
and method of aggregation.
Using graphics here perhaps falls a little short of the intention of
the interface because the possible types are easily enumerable and it
would be entirely practical to create discrete types for each. vGPUs
also have a lot of variables, so defining which attribute of the device
is multiplied by the number of instances is a little more fuzzy.
Thanks,
Alex

I think you're suggesting that we could simply define new mdev types to
account for these higher aggregate instances, for example we can
define discrete types that are 2x, 3x, 4x, etc. the resource count of a
single instance. What I think we're trying to address with this
proposal is what happens when the resources available are exceptionally
large and they can be combined in arbitrary ways. For example if a
parent device can expose 10,000 resources and the granularity with
which we can create and mdev instance is 1, is it practical to create
10,000 mdev types or does it make more sense to expose a granularity
and method of aggregation.
Okay, I got a much better picture now, thanks for the clarification.
The granularity you mentioned definitely does give users more power and control
(in terms of provisioning) over the devices.
Erik
Using graphics here perhaps falls a little short of the intention of
the interface because the possible types are easily enumerable and it
would be entirely practical to create discrete types for each. vGPUs
also have a lot of variables, so defining which attribute of the device
is multiplied by the number of instances is a little more fuzzy.
Thanks,
Alex

Since libvirt doesn't have an API to create mdevs yet, this doesn't pose an
issue for us at the moment. I see this adds new optional sysfs attributes which
we could expose within our device capabilities XML, provided it doesn't use a
free form text, like the description attribute does.
One thing I noticed is that we have seem to have an optional (?)
vendor-driver created "aggregation" attribute (which always prints
"true" in the Intel driver). Would it be better or worse for libvirt if
it contained some kind of upper boundary or so? Additionally, would it
be easier if the "create" attribute always accepted
",instances=1" (calling the .create ops in that case?)

Is ^this libvirt related question? If so, then by accepting such syntax you'll
definitely save us a few lines of code ;). However, until we have a clear

libvirt "create" API until then.

My question is what would be easiest for libvirt:
- "aggregation" attribute only present when driver supports aggregation
(possibly containing max number of resources to be aggregated)
- "aggregation" attribute always present; contains '1' if driver does
not support aggregation and 'm' if driver can aggregate 'm' resources

Both are fine from libvirt's POV, but IMHO the former makes a bit more sense
and I'm in favour of that one, IOW the presence of an attribute denotes a new
functionality which we can report, if it's missing, the feature is clearly
lacking- I don't think we (libvirt) should be reporting the value 1 explicitly
in the XML if the feature is missing, we can assume 1 as the default.

One thing I noticed is that we have seem to have an optional (?)
vendor-driver created "aggregation" attribute (which always prints
"true" in the Intel driver). Would it be better or worse for libvirt if
it contained some kind of upper boundary or so?
Ultimately the aggregation value should be fully specified in
Documentation/ABI, but doesn't the kernel generally use 'Y' or 'N'
for
boolean attributes in sysfs? Maybe mdev core can handle the attribute
since it should exist any time the create_with_instances callback is
provided.
Additionally, would it
be easier if the "create" attribute always accepted
",instances=1" (calling the .create ops in that case?)
Unless I misunderstand the code or the question, I think this is
exactly what happens:
+ if (instances > 1)
+ ret = parent->ops->create_with_instances(kobj, mdev, instances);
+ else
+ ret = parent->ops->create(kobj, mdev);
And elsewhere:
+ if (instances > 1 && !parent->ops->create_with_instances) {
+ ret = -EINVAL;
+ goto mdev_fail;
+ }
If the mdev core supplied the aggregation attribute, then the presence
of the attribute could indicate to userspace whether it can always
provide an instance (aggregate) count, even if limited to '1' when 'N',
for that mdev type. Thanks,
Alex

It might make sense to print a number if the driver allows a number of
resources to be aggregated which is not the same as available_instances
(see my reply to the documentation patch).

"instances" makes me think this is arg helps to create multiple mdev
instances rather than consuming multiple instances for a single mdev.
You're already exposing the "aggregation" attribute, so doesn't
"aggregate" perhaps make more sense as the create option? We're asking
the driver to aggregate $NUM instances into a single mdev. The mdev
attribute should then perhaps also be "aggregated_instances".
yeah that seems better.
The next user question for the interface might be what aspect of the
device gets multiplied by this aggregation? In i915 I see you're
multiplying the memory sizes by the instance, but clearly the
resolution doesn't change. I assume this is sort of like mdev types
themselves, ie. some degree of what a type means is buried in the
implementation and some degree of what some number of those types
aggregated together means is impossible to describe generically.
yeah, the purpose was to increase memory resource only, but due to current
free formatted 'description', can't have a meaningful expression for that,
and not sure if libvirt likes to understand vendor specific behavior e.g
for intel vGPU?
We're also going to need to add aggregation to the checklist for
device
compatibility for migration, for example 1) is it the same mdev_type,
1a) are the aggregation counts the same (new), 2) is the host driver
compatible (TBD).
Right, will check with Zhi on that.
The count handling in create_store(), particularly
MDEV_CREATE_OPT_LEN
looks a little suspicious. I think we should just be validating that
the string before the ',' or the entire string if there is no comma is
UUID length. Pass only that to uuid_le_to_bin(). We can then strncmp
as you have for "instances=" (or "aggregate=") but then let's be
sure
to end the string we pass to kstrtouint(), ie. assume there could be
further args.
Original purpose was to limit the length of string to accept, but can take
this way without issue I think.
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-vfio-mdev also needs to be updated
with this series.
Ok.
Thanks
I'm curious what libvirt folks and Kirti think of this, it looks like
it has a nice degree of backwards compatibility, both in the sysfs
interface and the vendor driver interface. Thanks,
Alex

Current mdev device create interface depends on fixed mdev type, which
get uuid
from user to create instance of mdev device. If user wants to use
customized
number of resource for mdev device, then only can create new mdev type
for that
which may not be flexible. This requirement comes not only from to be
able to
allocate flexible resources for KVMGT, but also from Intel scalable IO
virtualization which would use vfio/mdev to be able to allocate arbitrary
resources on mdev instance. More info on [1] [2] [3].
To allow to create user defined resources for mdev, it trys to extend mdev
create interface by adding new "instances=xxx" parameter following uuid,
for
target mdev type if aggregation is supported, it can create new mdev device
which contains resources combined by number of instances, e.g
echo "<uuid>,instances=10" > create
VM manager e.g libvirt can check mdev type with "aggregation" attribute
which
can support this setting. If no "aggregation" attribute found for mdev type,
previous behavior is still kept for one instance allocation. And new sysfs
attribute "instances" is created for each mdev device to show allocated
number.
This trys to create new KVMGT type with minimal vGPU resources which
can be
combined with "instances=x" setting to allocate for user wanted resources.

Hi, Zhenyu,
curious about the progress of this series. Is there still some open remaining
or a new version coming soon?
I had new version almost ready before my vacation, planned to send after be back.
So will refresh this later. Sorry for any delay as was trying to close several
gvt issues.
Thanks.

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH v3 0/6] VFIO mdev aggregated resources handling
Current mdev device create interface depends on fixed mdev type, which get uuid
from user to create instance of mdev device. If user wants to use customized
number of resource for mdev device, then only can create new mdev type for that
which may not be flexible. This requirement comes not only from to be able to
allocate flexible resources for KVMGT, but also from Intel scalable IO
virtualization which would use vfio/mdev to be able to allocate arbitrary
resources on mdev instance. More info on [1] [2] [3].
To allow to create user defined resources for mdev, it trys to extend mdev
create interface by adding new "aggregate=xxx" parameter following UUID, for
target mdev type if aggregation is supported, it can create new mdev device
which contains resources combined by number of instances, e.g
echo "<uuid>,aggregate=10" > create
VM manager e.g libvirt can check mdev type with "aggregation" attribute which
can support this setting. If no "aggregation" attribute found for mdev type,
previous behavior is still kept for one instance allocation. And new sysfs
attribute "aggregated_instances" is created for each mdev device to show
allocated number.

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH v3 1/6] vfio/mdev: Add new "aggregate" parameter for mdev create
For special mdev type which can aggregate instances for mdev device,
this extends mdev create interface by allowing extra "aggregate=xxx"
parameter, which is passed to mdev device model to be able to create
bundled number of instances for target mdev device.
v2: create new create_with_instances operator for vendor driver
v3:
- Change parameter name as "aggregate="
- Fix new interface comments.
- Parameter checking for new option, pass UUID string only to
parse and properly end parameter for kstrtouint() conversion.

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH v3 6/6] drm/i915/gvt: Add new type with aggregation support
New aggregation type is created for KVMGT which can be used
to combine minimal resource number for target instances, to create
user defined number of resources. For KVMGT, aggregated resource
is determined by memory and fence resource allocation for target
number of instances.
v2:
- apply for new hooks
