To restore the device at the destination of a live migration we send the

have received the DRIVER_OK status bit.
This probably requires the support from the parent driver and requires
some changes or fixes in the parent driver.

Some drivers did:

parent_set_status():
if (DRIVER_OK)
      if (queue_enable)
          write queue_enable to the device

Examples are IFCVF or even vp_vdpa at least. MLX5 seems to be fine.

I don't get your point here. No device should start reading CVQ (or
any other VQ) without having received DRIVER_OK.

If I understand the code correctly:

For CVQ, we do SET_VRING_ENABLE before DRIVER_OK, that's fine.

For datapath_vq, we do SET_VRING_ENABLE after DRIVER_OK, this requires
parent driver support (explained above)


Some parent drivers do not support sending the queue enable command
after DRIVER_OK, usually because they clean part of the state like the
set by set_vring_base. Even vdpa_net_sim needs fixes here.

Yes, so the question is:

Do we need another backend feature for this? (otherwise thing may break
silently)


But my understanding is that it should be supported so I consider it a
bug.

Probably, we need fine some proof in the spec, e.g in 3.1.1:

"""

7.Perform device-specific setup, including discovery of virtqueues for
the device, optional per-bus setup, reading and possibly writing the
device’s virtio configuration space, and population of virtqueues.
8.Set the DRIVER_OK status bit. At this point the device is “live”.

"""

So if my understanding is correct, "discovery of virtqueues for the
device" implies queue_enable here which is expected to be done before
DRIVER_OK. But it doesn't say anything regrading to the behaviour of
setting queue ready after DRIVER_OK.

I'm not sure it's a real bug or not, may Michael and comment on this.

Right, input on this topic would be really appreciated.

   Especially after queue_reset patches. Is that what you mean?

We haven't supported queue_reset yet in Qemu. But it allows to write 1
to queue_enable after DRIVER_OK for sure.

I was not clear, I meant in the emulated device. I'm testing this
series with the proposal of _F_STATE.

However this opens a window where the device could start receiving
packets in rx queue 0 before it receives the RSS configuration. To avoid
that, we will not send vring_enable until all configuration is used by
the device.

As a first step, run vhost_set_vring_ready for all vhost_net backend after
all of them are started (with DRIVER_OK). This code should not affect
vdpa.

I fail to understand why we need to change the vhost_net layer? This
is vhost-vDPA specific, so I wonder if we can limit the changes to e.g
vhost_vdpa_dev_start()?

The vhost-net layer explicitly calls vhost_set_vring_enable before
vhost_dev_start, and this is exactly the behavior we want to avoid.
Even if we make changes to vhost_dev, this change is still needed.

Note that the only user of vhost_set_vring_enable() is vhost-user where
the semantic is different:

It uses that to changes the number of active queues:

static int peer_attach(VirtIONet *n, int index)

          if (nc->peer->info->type == NET_CLIENT_DRIVER_VHOST_USER) {
=>      vhost_set_vring_enable(nc->peer, 1);
      }

This is not the semantic of vhost-vDPA that tries to be complaint with
virtio-spec. So I'm not sure how it can help here.

Right, but previous changes use enable callback to delay the enable of
the datapath virtqueues. I'll try to fit the changes in
virtio/vhost-vdpa though.


This would make things more complicated. As mentioned above, vhost-user's usage of vhost_set_vring_enable() is not spec compliant while the vhost-vDPA VHOST_VDPA_SET_VRING_ENALBE tries to be compliant with the spec.

If we tries to mix use that it may result confusion for the readers.

Thanks



Thanks!

And we want to explicitly enable CVQ first, which "only" vhost_net
knows which is.

This should be known by net/vhost-vdpa.c.


To perform that in vhost_vdpa_dev_start would require
quirks, involving one or more of:
* Ignore vq enable calls if the device is not the CVQ one. How to
signal what is the CVQ? Can we trust it will be the last one for all
kind of devices?
* Enable queues that do not belong to the last vhost_dev from the enable call.
* Enable the rest of the queues from the last enable in reverse order.
* Intercalate the "net load" callback between enabling the last
vhost_vdpa device and enabling the rest of devices.
* Add an "enable priority" order?

Haven't had time in thinking through, but it would be better if we can
limit the changes in vhost-vdpa layer. E.g currently the
VHOST_VDPA_SET_VRING_ENABLE is done at vhost_dev_start().

Thanks


Thanks!
