Having a fixed-size hash table for keeping track of all translation blocks
is suboptimal: some workloads are just too big or too small to get maximum
performance from the hash table. The MRU promotion policy helps improve
performance when the hash table is a little undersized, but it cannot
make up for severely undersized hash tables.
Furthermore, frequent MRU promotions result in writes that are a scalability
bottleneck. For scalability, lookups should only perform reads, not writes.
This is not a big deal for now, but it will become one once MTTCG matures.
The appended fixes these issues by using qht as the implementation of
the TB hash table. This solution is superior to other alternatives considered,
namely:
- master: implementation in QEMU before this patchset
- xxhash: before this patch, i.e. fixed buckets + xxhash hashing + MRU.
- xxhash-rcu: fixed buckets + xxhash + RCU list + MRU.
MRU is implemented here by adding an intermediate struct
that contains the u32 hash and a pointer to the TB; this
allows us, on an MRU promotion, to copy said struct (that is not
at the head), and put this new copy at the head. After a grace
period, the original non-head struct can be eliminated, and
after another grace period, freed.
- qht-fixed-nomru: fixed buckets + xxhash + qht without auto-resize +
no MRU for lookups; MRU for inserts.
The appended solution is the following:
- qht-dyn-nomru: dynamic number of buckets + xxhash + qht w/ auto-resize +
no MRU for lookups; MRU for inserts.
The plots below compare the considered solutions. The Y axis shows the
boot time (in seconds) of a debian jessie image with arm-softmmu; the X axis
sweeps the number of buckets (or initial number of buckets for qht-autoresize).
The plots in PNG format (and with errorbars) can be seen here:

Each test runs 5 times, and the entire QEMU process is pinned to a

log2 number of buckets
Note that the original point before this patch series is X=15 for "master";
the little sensitivity to the increased number of buckets is due to the
poor hashing function in master.
xxhash-rcu has significant overhead due to the constant churn of allocating
and deallocating intermediate structs for implementing MRU. An alternative
would be do consider failed lookups as "maybe not there", and then
acquire the external lock (tb_lock in this case) to really confirm that
there was indeed a failed lookup. This, however, would not be enough
to implement dynamic resizing--this is more complex: see
"Resizable, Scalable, Concurrent Hash Tables via Relativistic
Programming" by Triplett, McKenney and Walpole. This solution was
discarded due to the very coarse RCU read critical sections that we have
in MTTCG; resizing requires waiting for readers after every pointer update,
and resizes require many pointer updates, so this would quickly become
prohibitive.
qht-fixed-nomru shows that MRU promotion is advisable for undersized
hash tables.
However, qht-dyn-mru shows that MRU promotion is not important if the
hash table is properly sized: there is virtually no difference in
performance between qht-dyn-nomru and qht-dyn-mru.
Before this patch, we're at X=15 on "xxhash"; after this patch, we're at
X=15 @ qht-dyn-nomru. This patch thus matches the best performance that we
can achieve with optimum sizing of the hash table, while keeping the hash
table scalable for readers.
The improvement we get before and after this patch for booting debian jessie
with arm-softmmu is:
- Intel Xeon E5-2690: 10.5% less time
- Intel i7-4790K: 5.2% less time
We could get this same improvement _for this particular workload_ by
statically increasing the size of the hash table. But this would hurt
workloads that do not need a large hash table. The dynamic (upward)
resizing allows us to start small and enlarge the hash table as needed.
A quick note on downsizing: the table is resized back to 2**15 buckets
on every tb_flush; this makes sense because it is not guaranteed that the
table will reach the same number of TBs later on (e.g. most bootup code is
thrown away after boot); it makes sense to grow the hash table as
more code blocks are translated. This also avoids the complication of
having to build downsizing hysteresis logic into qht.

This is a fast, scalable chained hash table with optional auto-resizing, allowing
reads that are concurrent with reads, and reads/writes that are concurrent
with writes to separate buckets.
A hash table with these features will be necessary for the scalability
of the ongoing MTTCG work; before those changes arrive we can already
benefit from the single-threaded speedup that qht also provides.

Sometimes it is useful to have a quick histogram to represent a certain

For some workloads such as arm bootup, tb_phys_hash is performance-critical.
The is due to the high frequency of accesses to the hash table, originated
by (frequent) TLB flushes that wipe out the cpu-private tb_jmp_cache's.
More info:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-03/msg05098.html
To dig further into this I modified an arm image booting debian jessie to
immediately shut down after boot. Analysis revealed that quite a bit of time
is unnecessarily spent in tb_phys_hash: the cause is poor hashing that
results in very uneven loading of chains in the hash table's buckets;
the longest observed chain had ~550 elements.
The appended addresses this with two changes:
1) Use xxhash as the hash table's hash function. xxhash is a fast,
high-quality hashing function.
2) Feed the hashing function with not just tb_phys, but also pc and flags.
This improves performance over using just tb_phys for hashing, since that
resulted in some hash buckets having many TB's, while others getting very few;
with these changes, the longest observed chain on a single hash bucket is
brought down from ~550 to ~40.
Tests show that the other element checked for in tb_find_physical,
cs_base, is always a match when tb_phys+pc+flags are a match,
so hashing cs_base is wasteful. It could be that this is an ARM-only
thing, though. UPDATE:
On Tue, Apr 05, 2016 at 08:41:43 -0700, Richard Henderson wrote:
> The cs_base field is only used by i386 (in 16-bit modes), and sparc (for a TB

BTW, after this change the hash table should not be called "tb_hash_phys"
anymore; this is addressed later in this series.
This change gives consistent bootup time improvements. I tested two
host machines:
- Intel Xeon E5-2690: 11.6% less time
- Intel i7-4790K: 19.2% less time
Increasing the number of hash buckets yields further improvements. However,
using a larger, fixed number of buckets can degrade performance for other
workloads that do not translate as many blocks (600K+ for debian-jessie arm
bootup). This is dealt with later in this series.

The exception_action() function in user-exec.c is just a call to
cpu_loop_exit() for every target CPU except i386. Since this
function is only called if the target's handle_mmu_fault() hook has
indicated an MMU fault, and that hook is only called from the
handle_cpu_signal() code path, we can simply move the x86-specific
setup into that hook, which allows us to remove the TARGET_I386
ifdef from user-exec.c.
Of the actions that were done by the call to raise_interrupt_err():
* cpu_svm_check_intercept_param() is a no-op in user mode
* check_exception() is a no-op since double faults are impossible
for user-mode
* assignments to cs->exception_index and env->error_code are no-ops
* assigning to env->exception_next_eip is unnecessary because it
is not used unless env->exception_is_int is true
* cpu_loop_exit_restore() is equivalent to cpu_loop_exit() since
pc is 0
which leaves just setting env_>exception_is_int as the action that
needs to be added to x86_cpu_handle_mmu_fault().

Extracting the old signal mask from the usercontext pointer passed to
a signal handler is a pain because it is OS and CPU dependent.
Since we've already done it once and passed it to handle_cpu_signal(),
there's no need to do it again in cpu_exit_tb_from_sighandler().
This then means we don't need to pass a usercontext pointer in to
handle_cpu_signal() at all.

Since this is the only caller of cpu_resume_from_signal() which

a new cpu_exit_tb_from_sighandler() function. This allows us

The user-mode-only function tb_invalidate_phys_page() is only

* page_unprotect(), which passes in a non-zero pc, a puc pointer

* page_set_flags(), which passes in a zero pc, a NULL puc pointer
and a 'false' locked argument
If the pc is non-zero then we may call cpu_resume_from_signal(),
which does a longjmp out of the calling code (and out of the
signal handler); this is to cover the case of a target CPU with
"precise self-modifying code" (currently only x86) executing
a store instruction which modifies code in the same TB as the
store itself. Rather than doing the longjump directly here,
return a flag to the caller which indicates whether the current
TB was modified, and move the longjump to page_unprotect.

Since TARGET_ERESTARTSYS and TARGET_ESIGRETURN are internal-to-QEMU
error numbers, handle them specially in target_strerror(), to avoid
confusing strace output like:
9521 rt_sigreturn(14,8,274886297808,8,0,268435456) = -1 errno=513 (Unknown error 513)

The l_start and l_len fields in the various target_flock structures are
supposed to be '__kernel_off_t' or '__kernel_loff_t', which means they
should be signed, not unsigned. Correcting the structure definitions means
that __get_user() and __put_user() will correctly sign extend them if
the guest is using 32 bit offsets and the host is using 64 bit offsets.
This fixes failures in the LTP 'fcntl14' tests where it checks that
negative seek offsets work correctly.
We reindent the structures to drop hard tabs since we're touching 40%
of the fields anyway.

With this new option, qemu-img bench can be told to advance the current
offset after each request by a different value than the buffer size.
This is useful for controlling the conditions for cluster allocation in
image formats (e.g. qcow2 cluster allocation with COW in front of the
request, or COW areas that aren't overwritten immediately).

Drivers that implement .bdrv_co_pwritev() get the flags passed as an
argument to said function, but we also unconditionally emulate the flags
anyway. We shouldn't do that.
Fix this by clearing all flags that the driver supports natively after
it returns from .bdrv_co_pwritev().

The code to exit the loop after bdrv_snapshot_delete_by_id_or_name()
returned failure was duplicated. The first copy of it was too early so
that the AioContext lock would not be freed. This patch removes it so
that only the second, correct copy remains.

The problem with excessive flushing was found by a couple of performance
tests:
- parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes)
- 32 cached writes + fsync at the end in a loop
For the first one results improved from 2.6 loops/sec to 3.5 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
For the second one results improved from ~600 fsync/sec to ~1100
fsync/sec. Though, it was run on SSD so it probably won't show such
performance gain on rotational media.
qcow2_cache_flush() calls bdrv_flush() unconditionally after writing
cache entries of a particular cache. This can lead to as many as
2 additional fdatasyncs inside bdrv_flush.
We can simply skip all fdatasync calls inside qcow2_co_flush_to_os
as bdrv_flush for sure will do the job. These flushes are necessary to
keep the right order of writes to the different caches. Though this is
not necessary in the current code base as this ordering is ensured through
the flush in qcow2_cache_flush_dependency().

This converts the loading part of block migration to use BlockBackend
interfaces rather than accessing the BlockDriverState directly.
Note that this takes a lazy shortcut. We should really use a separate
BlockBackend that is configured for the migration rather than for the
guest (e.g. writethrough caching is unnecessary) and holds its own
reference to the BlockDriverState, but the impact isn't that big and we
didn't have a separate migration reference before either, so it must be
good enough, I guess...
