[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] hpet: recover timer offset correctly
Posted by Pavel Dovgalyuk 6 years, 4 months ago
HPET saves its state by calculating the current time and recovers timer
offset using this calculated value. But these calculations include
divisions and multiplications. Therefore the timer state cannot be recovered
precise enough.
This patch introduces saving of the original value of the offset to
preserve the determinism of the timer.

Hi

How have you tested this?

Why do we want to save it only when hpet is enabled?  We used to save it always.

This is made false everytime that we start incoming migration.

So, at this point it is going to always be false.

You are missing here a .needed function.  Se how
vmstate_hpet_rtc_irq_level_needed().
I am commeting from migration/vmstate point of view.  I don't understand
hpet well enough to comment about that.

Just to be sure that I am understanding what you want/need.

- You want to transport hpet_offset just in the cases that hpet_is_enabled()?

So your _needed() function needs to do something like
   return hpet_enabled();


So, we have two cases:
- hpet is enabled -> we need your changes, but then we can just have
hpet_counter directly

I think that the following patch does what you want, no?  And it is a
bit simpler.

Later, Juan.

Because it may be read by the guest.
Therefore hpet_counter should not be affected by the events not caused by the guest.

No, because post load (below) sets it to true.

Because .needed is optional.

No, we want to preserve backwards compatibility.

It is simpler, but won't work for migrations from old version to the new one.
hpet_counter becomes invalid in such case.

If you *don't* use a needed function then please just increase the
version.  You are just breaking compatibility anyways.  The whole point
of subsections is that they are optional.  If they are mandatory (this
case), then they bring no advantage at all.

So, let me understand this again.

old qemu -> new qemu

   what do you want to do here. i.e.
   new->hpet_counter = .... old->hpet_counter...
   new->hpet_offset = ... old->hpet_offset...

   You can use whatever you want.

new qemu -> old qemu
   right now, you break it always

   we *always* sent the subsection.  Is there any case where it makes
   sense to migrate to the old version.

What value do you want hpet_offset to have when migrating from old
versions?

My version does:

new -> new (hpet_enabled)
   dst->hpet_counter = src->hpet_counter
   dst->hpet_offset = src->hpet_offset

new -> new ( ! hpet_enabled)
   dst->hpet_counter = src->hpet_counter
   dst->hpet_offset = <undefined really>

new -> old (hpet_enabled)
   breaks migration

new -> old ( ! hpet_enabled)
   dst->hpet_counter = src->hpet_counter
   dst->hpet_offset = <undefined really>

old -> old
   dst->hpet_counter= src->hpet_get_tick();
   dst->hpet_offset = ticks_to_ns(s->hpet_counter) - qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL);


Your version does:

new -> new (hpet_enabled)
   dst->hpet_counter = hpet_get_ticks(s) /* on source */
   dst->hpet_offset = src->hpet_offset

new -> new ( ! hpet_enabled)
   dst->hpet_counter = src->hpet_counter
   dst->hpet_offset = ticks_to_ns(s->hpet_counter) - qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL);

new -> old
   breaks always migration independently of hpet_enabled

old -> old
   dst->hpet_counter= src->hpet_get_tick();
   dst->hpet_offset = ticks_to_ns(s->hpet_counter) - qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL);

So, what are the values that we want to have here really?

What dave is asked for your previous version is that you disable the
section for old machine types.  Look at how to use DEFINE_PROP_* for
this use case. 

Later, Juan.

Thanks, I thought that the sections are skipped automatically when there is no code for loading
them.

If this is only one optimization, this test is ok.  If it makes things
go worse, you can add something there like && hpet_enabled() or
whatever.  Remember that I don't understand HPET.

This should be on 2_11 not 2_10 O:-)
