[PATCH 0/2] hw/acpi: bump MADT to revision 5
Posted by Eric DeVolder 1 year ago
The following Linux kernel change broke CPU hotplug for MADT revision
less than 5.

 commit e2869bd7af60 ("x86/acpi/boot: Do not register processors that cannot be onlined for x2APIC")

As part of the investigation into resolving this breakage, I learned
that i386 QEMU reports revision 1, while technically it is at revision 3.
(Arm QEMU reports revision 4, and that is valid/correct.)

ACPI 6.3 bumps MADT revision to 5 as it introduces an Online Capable
flag that the above Linux patch utilizes to denote hot pluggable CPUs.

So in order to bump MADT to the current revision of 5, need to
validate that all MADT table changes between 1 and 5 are present
in QEMU.

Below is a table summarizing the changes to the MADT. This information
gleamed from the ACPI specs on uefi.org.

ACPI    MADT    What
Version Version
1.0             MADT not present
2.0     1       Section 5.2.10.4
3.0     2       Section 5.2.11.4
                 5.2.11.13 Local SAPIC Structure added two new fields:
                  ACPI Processor UID Value
                  ACPI Processor UID String
                 5.2.10.14 Platform Interrupt Sources Structure:
                  Reserved changed to Platform Interrupt Sources Flags
3.0b    2       Section 5.2.11.4
                 Added a section describing guidelines for the ordering of
                 processors in the MADT to support proper boot processor
                 and multi-threaded logical processor operation.
4.0     3       Section 5.2.12
                 Adds Processor Local x2APIC structure type 9
                 Adds Local x2APIC NMI structure type 0xA
5.0     3       Section 5.2.12
6.0     3       Section 5.2.12
6.0a    4       Section 5.2.12
                 Adds ARM GIC structure types 0xB-0xF
6.2a    45      Section 5.2.12   <--- yep it says version 45!
6.2b    5       Section 5.2.12
                 GIC ITS last Reserved offset changed to 16 from 20 (typo)
6.3     5       Section 5.2.12
                 Adds Local APIC Flags Online Capable!
                 Adds GICC SPE Overflow Interrupt field
6.4     5       Section 5.2.12
                 Adds Multiprocessor Wakeup Structure type 0x10
                 (change notes says structure previously misplaced?)
6.5     5       Section 5.2.12

For the MADT revision change 1 -> 2, the spec has a change to the
SAPIC structure. In general, QEMU does not generate/support SAPIC.
So the QEMU i386 MADT revision can safely be moved to 2.

For the MADT revision change 2 -> 3, the spec adds Local x2APIC
structures. QEMU has long supported x2apic ACPI structures. A simple
search of x2apic within QEMU source and hw/i386/acpi-common.c
specifically reveals this. So the QEMU i386 MADT revision can safely
be moved to 3.

For the MADT revision change 3 -> 4, the spec adds support for the ARM
GIC structures. QEMU ARM does in fact generate and report revision 4.
As these will not be used by i386 QEMU, so then the QEMU i386 MADT
revision can safely be moved to 4 as well.

Now for the MADT revision change 4 -> 5, the spec adds the Online
Capable flag to the Local APIC structure, and the ARM GICC SPE
Overflow Interrupt field.

For the ARM SPE, an existing 3-byte Reserved field is broken into a 1-
byte Reserved field and a 2-byte SPE field.  The spec says that is SPE
Overflow is not supported, it should be zero.

For the i386 Local APIC flag Online Capable, the spec has certain rules
about this value. And in particuar setting this value now explicitly
indicates a hotpluggable CPU.

So this patch makes the needed changes to move both ARM and i386 MADT
to revision 5. These are not complicated, thankfully.

Without these changes, the information below shows "how" CPU hotplug
breaks with the current upstream Linux kernel 6.3.  For example, a Linux
guest started with:

 qemu-system-x86_64 -smp 30,maxcpus=32 ...

and then attempting to hotplug a CPU:

  (QEMU) device_add id=cpu30 driver=host-x86_64-cpu socket-id=0 core-id=30 thread-id=0

fails with the following:

  APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 30 reached. Processor 30/0x.
  ACPI: Unable to map lapic to logical cpu number
  acpi LNXCPU:1e: Enumeration failure

The (latest upstream) Linux kernel sees 30 Enabled processors, and
does not consider processors 31 and 32 to be hotpluggable.

With this patch series applied, by bumping MADT to revision 5, the
latest upstream Linux kernel correctly identifies 30 CPUs plus 2
hotpluggable CPUS.

Re: [PATCH 0/2] hw/acpi: bump MADT to revision 5
Posted by Michael S. Tsirkin 1 year ago
Hmm I don't think we can reasonably make such a change for 8.0.
Seems too risky.
Also, I feel we want to have an internal (with "x-" prefix") flag to
revert to old behaviour, in case of breakage on some guests.  and maybe
we want to keep old revision for old machine types.

Presumably it's being fixed? Link to discussion? Patch fixing that in
Linux?

Can you please report which guests were tested?

Ok, what option name, for keeping old behavior, would you like?

I don't think that reporting revision 3 requires that generation of x2apic; one could still see 
apic, x2apic, or sapic in theory. I realize qemu doesn't do sapic...

I've been using primarily upstream Linux. Kernels at and before 6.2.0 didn't have the "broken" patch 
mentioned above, and worked (for the reasons cited in the patch discussion to "fix" that patch). Any 
kernel since has the "broken" patch and will exhibit the issue.

I've been using q35.

If there are other samples you'd like to see, let me know and I'll try.

Also, my responses will be delayed as I'm traveling the remainder of the week.

Thanks!

Great! Maybe stick a Link: tag in the commit log.

As a minimum some windows versions. The older the better.

if it works fine (cold & hot-plug) with older linux/windows guests
I'd rather avoid adding compat knob (we typically do that in ACPI tables
only when change breaks something).

(as old guest I'd define WinXP sp3 (/me wonders if we  still care about
dead EOLed OS) perhaps WS2008 would be a better minimum target these days
and RHEL6 (or some older ACPI enabled kernel with hotplug support))

So it's guest bug which is in process of being fixed.
(i.e. QEMU technically correct as long as MADT revision < 5)

In this case I'd not touch x86 MADT at all (It should be upto
downstream distros to fix guest kernel).

Probably the same applies to ARM variant
i.e. we should bump rev only when current one gets in the way
(aka we are pulling in new fields/definitions from new version)

Thus far I've tested this patch series with the following guests. In both cases below,
the guest started with -smp 8,maxcpus=16, and I simply attempted to hot plug and unplug
cpu8, with: device_add id=cpu8 driver=host-x86_64-cpu socket-id=0 core-id=8 thread-id=0.

1) Windows Server 2008.
  In Windows, after logging-in, I close the first full-screen window
  and then "Server Manager" window pops up. I navigate to left hand
  pane and choose Diagnostics -> Device Manager -> Processors.
  I count them before and after.
  When hotplugging a cpu, you can see the new processor show up in the
  processor list. That is, it goes from 8 to 9.
  When hot unplugging the CPU, Windows refuses:

   The 'Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU D-1533 @ 2.10GHz' device is not
   removable and cannot be ejected or unplugged.

2) RHEL 6.9
  From dmesg:
  ACPI: APIC 000000007ffe32f0 000F0 (v05 BOCHS  BXPC    00000001 BXPC 00000001)

  # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online

  Broke affinity for irq 24
  CPU 8 is now offline

  RHEL 6.9

So with these two older guest OS, it appears to still work. If there are others to be tested, let me 
know.

Sure, will include that with v2.

Iiuc, if QEMU generates x2apic tables with .revision = 1, that is not correct
(as x2APIC shows up in .revision=3).
But if QEMU generates, apic, sapic, or x2apic tables with .revision = 5, that
is correct (as all are valid options thru .revision 5).

Fwiw, this has been fixed and should show up in 6.3-rc6 this weekend.

If the original bug is in the kernel and kernel upstream has accepted both
your fix and Mario's patch on the acpi revision mess, I see no urgency to
fix this in QEMU.

Maybe we can address this in the 8.1 development window.

Why "maybe"? Eric is working on a patch I don't see why we won't
address it.

I am not opposed to addressing it. I just think it might be too risky for
8.0 given that we are already past the hard feature freeze date.

This does not look to me like a justified change for 8.0.
We have rev = 1 for years.

I forgot to include the updated ACPI tables. I will do that as part of v2.
In the meantime, I appreciate any feedback...
