[PATCH kernel v4 19/19] vfio_pci: Add NVIDIA GV100GL [Tesla V100 SXM2] subdriver

2018-11-22 Thread Alexey Kardashevskiy
POWER9 Witherspoon machines come with 4 or 6 V100 GPUs which are not
pluggable PCIe devices but still have PCIe links which are used
for config space and MMIO. In addition to that the GPUs have 6 NVLinks
which are connected to other GPUs and the POWER9 CPU. POWER9 chips
have a special unit on a die called an NPU which is an NVLink2 host bus
adapter with p2p connections to 2 to 3 GPUs, 3 or 2 NVLinks to each.
These systems also support ATS (address translation services) which is
a part of the NVLink2 protocol. Such GPUs also share on-board RAM
(16GB or 32GB) to the system via the same NVLink2 so a CPU has
cache-coherent access to a GPU RAM.

This exports GPU RAM to the userspace as a new VFIO device region. This
preregisters the new memory as device memory as it might be used for DMA.
This inserts pfns from the fault handler as the GPU memory is not onlined
until the vendor driver is loaded and trained the NVLinks so doing this
earlier causes low level errors which we fence in the firmware so
it does not hurt the host system but still better be avoided.

This exports an ATSD (Address Translation Shootdown) register of NPU which
allows TLB invalidations inside GPU for an operating system. The register
conveniently occupies a single 64k page. It is also presented to
the userspace as a new VFIO device region.

In order to provide the userspace with the information about GPU-to-NVLink
connections, this exports an additional capability called "tgt"
(which is an abbreviated host system bus address). The "tgt" property
tells the GPU its own system address and allows the guest driver to
conglomerate the routing information so each GPU knows how to get directly
to the other GPUs.

For ATS to work, the nest MMU (an NVIDIA block in a P9 CPU) needs to
know LPID (a logical partition ID or a KVM guest hardware ID in other
words) and PID (a memory context ID of a userspace process, not to be
confused with a linux pid). This assigns a GPU to LPID in the NPU and
this is why this adds a listener for KVM on an IOMMU group. A PID comes
via NVLink from a GPU and NPU uses a PID wildcard to pass it through.

This requires coherent memory and ATSD to be available on the host as
the GPU vendor only supports configurations with both features enabled
and other configurations are known not to work. Because of this and
because of the ways the features are advertised to the host system
(which is a device tree with very platform specific properties),
this requires enabled POWERNV platform.

The V100 GPUs do not advertise none of these capabilities via the config
space and there are more than just one device ID so this relies on
the platform to tell whether these GPUs have special abilities such as
NVLinks.

Changes:
v4:
* added nvlink-speed to the NPU bridge capability as this turned out to
be not a constant value
* instead of looking at the exact device ID (which also changes from system
to system), now this (indirectly) looks at the device tree to know
if GPU and NPU support NVLink

v3:
* reworded the commit log about tgt
* added tracepoints (do we want them enabled for entire vfio-pci?)
* added code comments
* added write|mmap flags to the new regions
* auto enabled VFIO_PCI_NVLINK2 config option
* added 'tgt' capability to a GPU so QEMU can recreate ibm,npu and ibm,gpu
references; there are required by the NVIDIA driver
* keep notifier registered only for short time
