[v1] vfio-ccw passthrough support

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/8] vfio-ccw passthrough support

Posted by Shalini Chellathurai Saroja 6 years ago

Let us support the basic channel I/O passthrough infrastructure based on
vfio, which have been introduced in QEMU 2.10. The current focus is to
support dasd-eckd (cu_type/dev_type = 0x3990/0x3390) as the target
device.

Neat.

Quick question: Does "current focus" mean "we have only tested it with
ECKD DASD", or "we only allow passthrough of 3990/3390 devices"?

Any chance, we get at least a review before 4.3 hits? Would be
appreciated.

So obviously this did not make the 4.3.0 and the series will need a
refresh due to the volume of change in qemu_capabilities.{c,h}.

I've reviewed a number of patches recently and made a similar comment in
all of them - when changing qemu_capabilities.{c,h} and updating the
various qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_*.xml files - do so in a separate
patch. That way if someone doesn't review the code right away, it's
actually fairly simple to recreate at least the capability for a
reviewer. Having it mixed in one patch with other qemu, conf, test, etc.
changes causes git am -3 to fail and thus makes review harder especially
when you don't get to reviews as soon as patches hit the list.

Someone may also want to consider creating a s390 specific version of
what Peter did for x86_64 for VIR_TEST_CAPS_LATEST in order to then
have/use the "latest" capabilities instead of adding bits to xml2argv
tests. I'm curious why the xml2xml test needed the bit adjustment - did
something fail?  Since there were no xml output data changes, that would
seem to indicate there isn't a need to modify the xml2xml test source.

I am going to send out a new rebased version shortly.

I am not sure if I understood you correctly. Are you referring to patch 
1? If so the changes are caused by a new QEMU_CAPS_CCW capability 
replacing the QEMU_CAPS_VIRTIO_CCW capability. More is explained in the 
commit message of the patch. In short: With support of vfio-ccw it 
became apparent that the existence of the ccw bus is not well sourced by 
observing virtio-ccw and therefore we replaced it with the detection of 
the virtual-css-bridge. Let me know if I understood you wrong.

Sorry it wasn't clear enough - changes were recently made to
tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c in order to run the tests using the latest
capabilities rather than needing to pass each capability through the
test. The macros also have a version specific macro which allows for
checking/output from "previous" QEMU releases.

However, the changes only modified macros for x86_64 - so my comment was
if someone felt so inclined to avoid needing/checking specific/certain
caps and only cared that the latest caps did something a certain way,
then adjusting those macros/tests to handle s390* specific things would
perhaps helps achieve that. Furthermore, if previous QEMU versions would
produce different results, then using the version specific checks/output
would provide that support.

Oh, I tried to connect your comment to the vfio-ccw passthrough patch 
series but it seems rather unrelated to me.
Anyway you are right that it could be useful to extend the macros 
DO_TEST_CAPS_LATEST and DO_TEST_CAPS_VER beyond x86_64 arch. I do see 
these macros more like additional test scenarios that are a bit more 
reality oriented. The currently used approach of explicitly setting the 
minimum required capabilities for a single test case is still making 
sense to me as well since it allows to (slightly) narrow down the tested 
code path to the actual to be tested code/feature.

Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 0/8] vfio-ccw passthrough support

There is a temporary delay with our mail reception. The answer to the 
question below is as follows.

Quick question: Does "current focus" mean "we have only tested it with
ECKD DASD", or "we only allow passthrough of 3990/3390 devices"?

yes, it means we have only tested it with ECKD DASD device. The libvirt 
implementation supports all the devices which are supported by QEMU.

Thanks.
