[v10] Drivers for Gunyah hypervisor

[PATCH v10 07/26] mailbox: Add Gunyah message queue mailbox

Posted by Elliot Berman 2 years, 12 months ago

Gunyah message queues are a unidirectional inter-VM pipe for messages up
to 1024 bytes. This driver supports pairing a receiver message queue and
a transmitter message queue to expose a single mailbox channel.

+Gunyah message queues are exposed as mailboxes. To create the mailbox, create
+a mbox_client and call `gh_msgq_init`. On receipt of the RX_READY interrupt,
+all messages in the RX message queue are read and pushed via the `rx_callback`
+of the registered mbox_client.

You use a dash in this source file name, but an underscore
everywhere else.  Unless there's a good reason to do this,
please be consistent (use "gunyah_msgq.c").

Srini mentioned something about this too.  In many
(all?) cases, there is a device pointer available,
so you should use dev_*() functions rather than pr_*().

In this particular case, I'm not sure why/when the
mbox.dev pointer would be null.  Also, dev_*() handles
the case of a null device pointer, and it reports the
device name (just as you do here).

Above you named the variable "err".  It helps readability
if you use a very consistent naming convention for variables
of a certain type when they are used a lot.

A general comment on this code is that you sort of half define
a Gunyah message queue API.  You define an initialization
function and an exit function, but you also expose the fact
that you use the mailbox framework in implementation.  This
despite avoiding defining it as an mbox in the DTS file.

It might be hard to avoid that I guess.  But to me it would be
nice if there were a more distinct Gunyah message queue API,
which would provide a send_message() function, for example.
And in that case, perhaps you would pass in the tx_done and/or
rx_data callbacks to this function (since they're required).

All that said, this is (currently?) only used by the resource
manager, so making a beautiful API might not be that important.
Do you envision this being used to communicate with other VMs
in the future?

Can Gunyah even function if it doesn't have the MSGQUEUE feature?
Will there ever be a Gunyah implementation that does not support
it?  Perhaps this test could be done in gunyah_init() instead.

For that matter, you could verify the result of gh_api_version()
at that time also.

 From what I can tell, you will always use exactly one mailbox channel.
So you could just do kzalloc(sizeof()...).

	if (tx_ghrsc) {

The irq field is assumed to be valid.  Are there any
sanity checks you could perform?  Again this is only
used for the resource manager right now, so maybe
it's OK.

Is there any need to un-bind the client?

The maximum value here must fit in 8 bits.  I guess
there's no risk right now of using that up, but you
use negative values in some cases elsewhere.

request_irq() defines the IRQ value to be an unsigned int.

Can the msgq_client be embedded here too?  (I don't really
know whether msgq and msgq_client are one-to one.)

I suggested:

int gh_msgq_send(struct gh_msgq, struct gh_msgq_tx_data *data);

I can write a wrapper for send_message, but I think it limits the code 
re-use of mailbox framework.

I don't think we will ever have a Gunyah implementation that doesn't 
support message queues. Perhaps some long distant Gunyah will use IPC 
mechanism X instead of message queues and the message queue support is 
dropped.

Moved the gh_api_version() check to gunyah_init()

If it's all the same, I'd like to keep it as kcalloc because chans is 
expected to be an array with num_chans size. It seems more correct to 
use kcalloc.

We should safely assume irq field is valid. If we need to be skeptical 
of irq, we'd also need to be skeptical of capid and there's not validity 
check to perform there. struct gunyah_resource's are either filled from 
DT (in this case) or would be created by resource manager which does 
validity checks.

They are one-to-one. I can embed the struct in the struct gh_msgq and 
drop the kcalloc.

I have a general comment for "include/linux/gunyah.h".

You sometimes use "gunyah" in exported names (for example,
enum gunyah_resource_type, or struct gunyah_resource).  In
many cases, though, you use "gh_ or "GH_" (such as in
struct gh_msgq, or GH_DBL_NONBLOCK).  Is there a reason
that you don't pick one and use it everywhere?

I think it would be best--certainly for exported symbols
like these--to use a single symbol prefix for all cases.

Sometimes there might be a reason to distinguish two names
(maybe "gunyah_" symbols are truly public, while "gh_"
symbols are helpers meant generally to be private).  But
I don't think that's the case here.

It seems that "gh" is your most frequent prefix, so that
might be easier to implement.  But "gunyah" is more expressive
and is only 4 characters wider.

Why are we reusing CONFIG_GUNYAH Kconfig symbol for mailbox, why not

Tasklets have been long deprecated, consider using workqueues in this

Workqueues have higher latency and tasklets came as recommendation from 
Jassi. drivers/mailbox/imx-mailbox.c uses tasklets in the same way.

I did some quick unscientific measurements of ~1000x samples. The median 
latency for resource manager went from 25.5 us (tasklet) to 26 us 
(workqueue) (2% slower). The mean went from 28.7 us to 32.5 us (13% 
slower). Obviously, the outliers for workqueues were much more extreme.

TBH, this is expected because we are only testing resource manager, Note 
  the advantage that you will see shifting from tasket to workqueues is 
on overall system latencies and some drivers performance that need to 
react to events.

Hmm, this article is from 2020 and there was another effort in 2007. 
Neither seems to have succeeded. I'd like to stick to same mechanisms as 
other mailbox controllers.

Jassi, do you have any preferences?

Thanks,

I don't want to block this series because of this. We will have more 
opportunity to improve this once some system wide profiling is done.

AFAIU, In this system we will have atleast 2 tasklets between VM and RM 
and 2 per inter-vm, so if the number of tasklets increase in the system 
will be potentially spending more time in soft irq handling it.

At somepoint in time its good to get some profiling done using 
bcc/softirqs to see how much time is spent on softirqs.
