vDPA: initial config export via "vdpa dev show"

Live migration of vdpa would typically require re-instate vdpa
device with an idential set of configs on the destination node,
same way as how source node created the device in the first
place. In order to save orchestration software from memorizing
and keeping track of vdpa config, it will be helpful if the vdpa
tool provides the aids for exporting the initial configs as-is,
the way how vdpa device was created. The "vdpa dev show" command
seems to be the right vehicle for that. It is unlike the "vdpa dev
config show" command output which usually goes with the live value
in the device config space, and is not quite reliable subject to
the dynamics of feature negotiation or possible change by the
driver to the config space.
Examples:
1) Create vDPA by default without any config attribute
$ vdpa dev add mgmtdev pci/0000:41:04.2 name vdpa0
$ vdpa dev show vdpa0
vdpa0: type network mgmtdev pci/0000:41:04.2 vendor_id 5555 max_vqs 9 max_vq_size 256
$ vdpa dev -jp show vdpa0
{
"dev": {
"vdpa0": {
"type": "network",
"mgmtdev": "pci/0000:41:04.2",
"vendor_id": 5555,
"max_vqs": 9,
"max_vq_size": 256,
}
}
}
2) Create vDPA with config attribute(s) specified
$ vdpa dev add mgmtdev pci/0000:41:04.2 name vdpa0 \
mac e4:11:c6:d3:45:f0 max_vq_pairs 4
$ vdpa dev show
vdpa0: type network mgmtdev pci/0000:41:04.2 vendor_id 5555 max_vqs 9 max_vq_size 256
initial_config: mac e4:11:c6:d3:45:f0 max_vq_pairs 4
$ vdpa dev -jp show
{
"dev": {
"vdpa0": {
"type": "network",
"mgmtdev": "pci/0000:41:04.2",
"vendor_id": 5555,
"max_vqs": 9,
"max_vq_size": 256,
"initial_config": {
"mac": "e4:11:c6:d3:45:f0",
"max_vq_pairs": 4
}
}
}
}

A simple answer would be yes, but the long answer is that I am not sure if there's any for the moment - there's no default value for mtu, mac, and max_vqp that can be inherited from the parent (max_vqp by default being 1 is spec defined, not something inherited from the parent). And the device_features if inherited is displayed at 'vdpa dev config show' output. Can you remind me of a good example for inherited value that we may want to show here?

Note that it is by default from driver level that if _F_MQ is not negotiated. But I think we are talking about something different that is out of the spec here, what if: vDPA inherit _F_MQ but mqx_vqp is not provisioned via netlink. Or is it not allowed?

Some other cases: 1) MTU: there should be something that the device needs to report if _F_MTU is negotiated even if it is not provisioned from netlink. 2) device_features: if device_features is not provisioned, we should still report it via netlink here or do you mean the mgmt can assume it should be the same as mgmtdev. Anyhow if we don't show device_features if it is not provisioned, it will complicate the mgmt software.

So we have: int vdpa_register_device(struct vdpa_device *vdev, int nvqs) This means technically, parent can allocate a multiqueue devices with _F_MQ features if max_vqp and device_features is not provisioned. And what's more, what happens if _F_MQ is provisioned by max_vqp is not specified? The question is: When a attribute is not specificed/provisioned via net link, what's the default value? The answer should be consistent: if device_features is determined by the parent, we should do the same for mqx_vqp.

Yes, we can add, but I am not sure whether or not this will be practically useful, for e.g. the same command without max_vqp specified may render different number of queues across different devices, or different revisions of the same vendor's devices. Does it complicate the mgmt software even more, I'm not sure.... Could we instead mandate max_vqp to be 1 from vdpa core level if user doesn't explicitly specify the value? That way it is more consistent in terms of the resulting number of queue pairs (=1) with the case where parent device does not offer the _F_MQ feature. > > >> if not otherwise specified in the CLI.

Wouldn't it be possible to achieve that by simply checking how many parent mgmtdev instances don't have vdpa device provisioned yet? e.g. inuse=$(vdpa dev show | grep mgmtdev | wc -l) total=$(vdpa mgmtdev show | grep "supported_classes" | wc -l ) echo $((total - inuse)) > > >> >>> At least some time in the past, mlx5 were >>> enabled with MQ with 8 queue pairs by default. >> That was the situation when there's no max_vqp attribute support from >> vdpa netlink API level.

OK I got your point. > And it looks to me all of those belongs to the initial config > (self-contained) Right. I wonder if we can have vdpa core define the default value (for e.g. max_vqp=1) for those unspecified attribute (esp. when the corresponding device feature is offered and provisioned) whenever possible. Which I think it'll be more consistent for the same command to get to the same result between different vendor drivers. While we still keep the possibility for future extension to allow driver override the vdpa core disposition if the real use case emerges.

Right. How's the plan for QEMU to get to the mtu provisioned by netlink, via a new vhost-vdpa ioctl call? If so, will QEMU be able to read it directly from kernel when it comes to the vhost-vdpa backend, without having user to specify host_mtu from CLI? > > >> and the way to get the parent device MTU and whether that's relevant >> to vdpa device's MTU is very vendor specific. > > > So I think the max MTU of parent should be equal to the max MTU of the > vDPA. Noted here the parent might not be necessarily the mgmtdev where vdpa gets created over. It may well end up with the MTU on the PF (uplink port) which the mgmt software has to concern with. My point is the utility and tool chain able to derive the maximal MTU effectively allowed for vDPA device may live out of vDPA's realm. It's a rare or even invalid configuration to have vDPA configured with a bigger value than the MTU on the uplink port or parent device. It's more common when MTU config is involved, it has to be consistently configured across all the network links along, from parent device (uplink port) down to the switchdev representor port, vdpa device, and QEMU virtio-net object. > > >> I think we would need new attribute(s) in the mgmtdev level to >> support what you want here? > > > Not sure, but what I want to ask is consider we provision MTU feature > but without max MTU value, do we need to report the initial max MTU here? Yep, maybe. I'm not very sure if this will be very useful to be honest, consider it's kinda a rare case to me were to provision MTU feature without a specific MTU value. If one cares about MTU, mgmt software should configure some mtu through "vdpa dev add ... mtu ...", no? On the other hand, no mtu value specified may mean "go with what the uplink port or parent device has". I think this is a pretty useful case if the vendor's NIC supports updating MTU on the fly without having to tear down QEMU and reconfigure vdpa. I'm not sure if we end up with killing this use case by limiting initial max MTU to a fixed value. > > >> >>> 2) device_features: if device_features is not provisioned, we should >>> still report it via netlink here >> Not the way I expected it, but with Lingshan's series to expose >> fields out of FEATURES_OK, the device_features is now reported >> through 'vdpa dev config show' regardless being specified or not, if >> I am not mistaken? > > > Yes.

I think for the most part "initial_config" will be sufficient for those config attributes with "vdpa dev add" equivalents, be it user specified, vdpa enforced default if missing user input, or default overridden by the parent device. "inherited_config" will be useful for the configs with no "vdpa dev add" equivalent or live out side of vdpa tool, but still important for mgmt software to replicate identical vdpa setup. Like max-supported-mtu (for the uplink port or parent device), effective-link-speed, effective-link-status et al. Let's see if there's more when we get there.

This seems to be not easy, at least not easy in the vDPA core.

That's possible but we may end up with device specific code in the vDPA core which is not elegant, and the code will grow as the number of supported types grows. Note that, max_vqp is not the only attribute that may suffer from this, basically any config field that depends on a specific feature bit may have the same issue. > > > > > > >> And the mlx5_vdpa driver with 8 queue pairs in the wild days is just > >> irrelevant to be manageable by mgmt software, regardless of live > >> migration. > >>>> And > >>>> the device_features if inherited is displayed at 'vdpa dev config > >>>> show' > >>>> output.

I'm not sure I get the question, but Qemu should get this via config space (otherwise it should be a bug). And Qemu need to verify the mtu got from cli vs the mtu got from vhost and fail the device initialization if they don't match. > > > > > >> and the way to get the parent device MTU and whether that's relevant > >> to vdpa device's MTU is very vendor specific. > > > > > > So I think the max MTU of parent should be equal to the max MTU of the > > vDPA. > Noted here the parent might not be necessarily the mgmtdev where vdpa > gets created over.

If one cares about MTU, mgmt software > should configure some mtu through "vdpa dev add ... mtu ...", no? Yes, but this only works if all config fields could be provisioned, which seems not the case now, vdpa_dev_set_config is currently a subset of virtio_net_config. So this goes back to the question I raised earlier. Is the time to switch to use virtio_net_config and allow all fields to be provisioned? And even for mtu we're lacking a way to report the maximum MTU allowed by mgmt dev (e.g the uplink MTU via netlink): 1) report the maximum host mtu supported by the mgmtdev via netlink (not done, so management needs to guess the maximum value now) 2) allow mtu to be provisioned (done) 3) show initial mtu (done by this patch) We probably need to do the above for all fields to be self-contained. > > On the other hand, no mtu value specified may mean "go with what the > uplink port or parent device has".

Yep I agree. I was saying not very attribute would need to be inherited from the parent device. Actually attributes like max_vqp could take the default from some common place for e.g. some default value can be applied by vdpa core. And we can document these attributes ruled by vdpa core in vdpa-dev(8) man page. Reduce the extra call of having mgmt software issue another query command which actually doesn't need to. > >> Could we instead mandate >> max_vqp to be 1 from vdpa core level if user doesn't explicitly specify >> the value? > This seems to be not easy, at least not easy in the vDPA core. We can load these default values from vdpa_nl_cmd_dev_add_set_doit() before ops->dev_add is called.

I guess that's unavoidable as this is already the case today. See various VIRTIO_ID_NET case switch in the vdpa.c code. I think type specific code just limits itself to the netlink API interfacing layer rather than down to the driver API, it might be just okay (as that's already the case). > > Note that, max_vqp is not the only attribute that may suffer from > this, basically any config field that depends on a specific feature > bit may have the same issue. > >>> >>>> And the mlx5_vdpa driver with 8 queue pairs in the wild days is just >>>> irrelevant to be manageable by mgmt software, regardless of live >>>> migration. >>>>>> And >>>>>> the device_features if inherited is displayed at 'vdpa dev config >>>>>> show' >>>>>> output.

It's hard for QEMU to work this way with the existing get_config() ops I think, as it has assumption around endianness and feature negotiation, until the latter is done you can't get any reliable value for provisioned property. I think QEMU which need to validate the provisioned value way earlier (when QEMU is launched), before negotiation kicks in. It would be clearner to use another vhost and a new vdpa driver ops to retrieve the provisioned feature config values from vendor drivers. > And Qemu need to verify the mtu > got from cli vs the mtu got from vhost and fail the device > initialization if they don't match. I mean today there's a problem for double provisioning: for e.g. mtu has to be first provided in the 'vdpa dev add' command when to provision _F_MTU, in QEMU CLI the same value has to be supplied to host_mtu. The same applies to mac address. It would be the best we can allow QEMU load the provisioned value from vdpa device directly, without having to provide extra duplicated configs in QEMU CLI level. > >>> >>>> and the way to get the parent device MTU and whether that's relevant >>>> to vdpa device's MTU is very vendor specific. >>> >>> So I think the max MTU of parent should be equal to the max MTU of the >>> vDPA. >> Noted here the parent might not be necessarily the mgmtdev where vdpa >> gets created over.

Don't quite get how it will be useful if switching to virtio_net_config. I thought we can add the missing fields to vdpa_dev_set_config even now to make it match virtio_net_config. Though the reality is there's few vdpa device that supports those features now. If any real device supports feature field in virtio_net_config but not in vdpa_dev_set_config, it can be gradually added so long as needed. > > And even for mtu we're lacking a way to report the maximum MTU allowed > by mgmt dev (e.g the uplink MTU via netlink): Since MTU is only implemented in mlx5_vdpa by now except for simulators, copy Eli to see if this is feasible to implement in real device. I think we also need to validate that the mtu configured on vDPA device instance shouldn't exceed the uplink MTU (maximum MTU allowed). > 1) report the maximum host mtu supported by the mgmtdev via netlink > (not done, so management needs to guess the maximum value now) > 2) allow mtu to be provisioned (done) > 3) show initial mtu (done by this patch) So I wonder is it fine for vdpa core to come up with a default value for MTU when _F_MTU feature is to be provisioned or inherited? If we mandate each vDPA vendor to support at least the standard 1500 MTU for _F_MTU feature, we can make it default to 1500. Otherwise the vDPA has to be taken (inherited) from the parent device. Unfortunately, right now for mlx5_vdpa, the parent mgmtdev device has 1500 MTU by default regardless of the MTU on the uplink port, and I'm not sure if it's a right model to enforce mgmtdev go with uplink port's MTU.

Ok, that'll be fine. I supposed mgmt software should only query through "mgmtdev show" or "dev show", avoiding any query via"dev config show". It'd be the best to get all of the compatibility related info consolidated in one single place. Let me try to include it in "dev show". > >>> >>>> Currently we export the config attributes upon vdpa creation under >>>> the "initial_config" key.

So the major difference is "initial_config" is settable and equivalent to the config attribute in "vdpa dev add" command, while "inherited_config" is the read-only fields from "mgmtdev show" that does not correspond to any "vdpa dev add" vdpa attribute. That way the mgmt software can use the "initial_config" directly to recreate vdpa with identical device config, while using the "inherited_config" to replicate the other configs out of vdpa, for e.g. set uplink port's MTU to 9000. Maybe there's no need to fold such info into an "inherited_config" key? though I just want to make it relevant to migration compatibility. Any suggestion for the name or layout?
