Vhost-user Protocol

|
===================
|
|
|
|
This protocol is aiming to complement the ioctl interface used to control the
|
|
vhost implementation in the Linux kernel. It implements the control plane needed
|
|
to establish virtqueue sharing with a user space process on the same host. It
|
|
uses communication over a Unix domain socket to share file descriptors in the
|
|
ancillary data of the message.
|
|
|
|
The protocol defines 2 sides of the communication, master and slave. Master is
|
|
the application that shares its virtqueues, in our case QEMU. Slave is the
|
|
consumer of the virtqueues.
|
|
|
|
In the current implementation QEMU is the Master, and the Slave is intended to
|
|
be a software Ethernet switch running in user space, such as Snabbswitch.
|
|
|
|
Master and slave can be either a client (i.e. connecting) or server (listening)
|
|
in the socket communication.
|
|
|
|
Message Specification
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Note that all numbers are in the machine native byte order. A vhost-user message
|
|
consists of 3 header fields and a payload:
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
| request | flags | size | payload |
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Request: 32-bit type of the request
|
|
* Flags: 32-bit bit field:
|
|
- Lower 2 bits are the version (currently 0x01)
|
|
- Bit 2 is the reply flag - needs to be sent on each reply from the slave
|
|
- Bit 3 is the need_reply flag - see VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK for
|
|
details.
|
|
* Size - 32-bit size of the payload
|
|
|
|
|
|
Depending on the request type, payload can be:

In QEMU the vhost-user message is implemented with the following struct:
|
|
|
|
typedef struct VhostUserMsg {
|
|
VhostUserRequest request;
|
|
uint32_t flags;
|
|
uint32_t size;
|
|
union {
|
|
uint64_t u64;
|
|
struct vhost_vring_state state;
|
|
struct vhost_vring_addr addr;
|
|
VhostUserMemory memory;
|
|
VhostUserLog log;
|
|
struct vhost_iotlb_msg iotlb;
|
|
VhostUserConfig config;
|
|
};
|
|
} QEMU_PACKED VhostUserMsg;
|
|
|
|
Communication
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The protocol for vhost-user is based on the existing implementation of vhost
|
|
for the Linux Kernel. Most messages that can be sent via the Unix domain socket
|
|
implementing vhost-user have an equivalent ioctl to the kernel implementation.
|
|
|
|
The communication consists of master sending message requests and slave sending
|
|
message replies. Most of the requests don't require replies. Here is a list of
|
|
the ones that do:
|
|
|
|
* VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES
|
|
* VHOST_USER_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES
|
|
* VHOST_USER_GET_VRING_BASE
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE (if VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD)
|
|
|
|
[ Also see the section on REPLY_ACK protocol extension. ]
|
|
|
|
There are several messages that the master sends with file descriptors passed
|
|
in the ancillary data:
|
|
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE (if VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD)
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_FD
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_KICK
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_CALL
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ERR
|
|
* VHOST_USER_SET_SLAVE_REQ_FD
|
|
|
|
If Master is unable to send the full message or receives a wrong reply it will
|
|
close the connection. An optional reconnection mechanism can be implemented.
|
|
|
|
Any protocol extensions are gated by protocol feature bits,
|
|
which allows full backwards compatibility on both master
|
|
and slave.
|
|
As older slaves don't support negotiating protocol features,
|
|
a feature bit was dedicated for this purpose:
|
|
#define VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES 30
|
|
|
|
Starting and stopping rings
|
|
----------------------
|
|
Client must only process each ring when it is started.
|
|
|
|
Client must only pass data between the ring and the
|
|
backend, when the ring is enabled.
|
|
|
|
If ring is started but disabled, client must process the
|
|
ring without talking to the backend.
|
|
|
|
For example, for a networking device, in the disabled state
|
|
client must not supply any new RX packets, but must process
|
|
and discard any TX packets.
|
|
|
|
If VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES has not been negotiated, the ring is initialized
|
|
in an enabled state.
|
|
|
|
If VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES has been negotiated, the ring is initialized
|
|
in a disabled state. Client must not pass data to/from the backend until ring is enabled by
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE with parameter 1, or after it has been disabled by
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE with parameter 0.
|
|
|
|
Each ring is initialized in a stopped state, client must not process it until
|
|
ring is started, or after it has been stopped.
|
|
|
|
Client must start ring upon receiving a kick (that is, detecting that file
|
|
descriptor is readable) on the descriptor specified by
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_KICK, and stop ring upon receiving
|
|
VHOST_USER_GET_VRING_BASE.
|
|
|
|
While processing the rings (whether they are enabled or not), client must
|
|
support changing some configuration aspects on the fly.
|
|
|
|
Multiple queue support
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Multiple queue is treated as a protocol extension, hence the slave has to
|
|
implement protocol features first. The multiple queues feature is supported
|
|
only when the protocol feature VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ (bit 0) is set.
|
|
|
|
The max number of queue pairs the slave supports can be queried with message
|
|
VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM. Master should stop when the number of
|
|
requested queues is bigger than that.
|
|
|
|
As all queues share one connection, the master uses a unique index for each
|
|
queue in the sent message to identify a specified queue. One queue pair
|
|
is enabled initially. More queues are enabled dynamically, by sending
|
|
message VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE.
|
|
|
|
Migration
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
During live migration, the master may need to track the modifications
|
|
the slave makes to the memory mapped regions. The client should mark
|
|
the dirty pages in a log. Once it complies to this logging, it may
|
|
declare the VHOST_F_LOG_ALL vhost feature.
|
|
|
|
To start/stop logging of data/used ring writes, server may send messages
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURES with VHOST_F_LOG_ALL and VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ADDR with
|
|
VHOST_VRING_F_LOG in ring's flags set to 1/0, respectively.
|
|
|
|
All the modifications to memory pointed by vring "descriptor" should
|
|
be marked. Modifications to "used" vring should be marked if
|
|
VHOST_VRING_F_LOG is part of ring's flags.
|
|
|
|
Dirty pages are of size:
|
|
#define VHOST_LOG_PAGE 0x1000
|
|
|
|
The log memory fd is provided in the ancillary data of
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE message when the slave has
|
|
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD protocol feature.
|
|
|
|
The size of the log is supplied as part of VhostUserMsg
|
|
which should be large enough to cover all known guest
|
|
addresses. Log starts at the supplied offset in the
|
|
supplied file descriptor.
|
|
The log covers from address 0 to the maximum of guest
|
|
regions. In pseudo-code, to mark page at "addr" as dirty:
|
|
|
|
page = addr / VHOST_LOG_PAGE
|
|
log[page / 8] |= 1 << page % 8
|
|
|
|
Where addr is the guest physical address.
|
|
|
|
Use atomic operations, as the log may be concurrently manipulated.
|
|
|
|
Note that when logging modifications to the used ring (when VHOST_VRING_F_LOG
|
|
is set for this ring), log_guest_addr should be used to calculate the log
|
|
offset: the write to first byte of the used ring is logged at this offset from
|
|
log start. Also note that this value might be outside the legal guest physical
|
|
address range (i.e. does not have to be covered by the VhostUserMemory table),
|
|
but the bit offset of the last byte of the ring must fall within
|
|
the size supplied by VhostUserLog.
|
|
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_FD is an optional message with an eventfd in
|
|
ancillary data, it may be used to inform the master that the log has
|
|
been modified.
|
|
|
|
Once the source has finished migration, rings will be stopped by
|
|
the source. No further update must be done before rings are
|
|
restarted.
|
|
|
|
Memory access
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The master sends a list of vhost memory regions to the slave using the
|
|
VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE message. Each region has two base addresses: a guest
|
|
address and a user address.
|
|
|
|
Messages contain guest addresses and/or user addresses to reference locations
|
|
within the shared memory. The mapping of these addresses works as follows.
|
|
|
|
User addresses map to the vhost memory region containing that user address.
|
|
|
|
When the VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM feature has not been negotiated:
|
|
|
|
* Guest addresses map to the vhost memory region containing that guest
|
|
address.
|
|
|
|
When the VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM feature has been negotiated:
|
|
|
|
* Guest addresses are also called I/O virtual addresses (IOVAs). They are
|
|
translated to user addresses via the IOTLB.
|
|
|
|
* The vhost memory region guest address is not used.
|
|
|
|
IOMMU support
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
When the VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM feature has been negotiated, the master
|
|
sends IOTLB entries update & invalidation by sending VHOST_USER_IOTLB_MSG
|
|
requests to the slave with a struct vhost_iotlb_msg as payload. For update
|
|
events, the iotlb payload has to be filled with the update message type (2),
|
|
the I/O virtual address, the size, the user virtual address, and the
|
|
permissions flags. Addresses and size must be within vhost memory regions set
|
|
via the VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE request. For invalidation events, the iotlb
|
|
payload has to be filled with the invalidation message type (3), the I/O virtual
|
|
address and the size. On success, the slave is expected to reply with a zero
|
|
payload, non-zero otherwise.
|
|
|
|
The slave relies on the slave communcation channel (see "Slave communication"
|
|
section below) to send IOTLB miss and access failure events, by sending
|
|
VHOST_USER_SLAVE_IOTLB_MSG requests to the master with a struct vhost_iotlb_msg
|
|
as payload. For miss events, the iotlb payload has to be filled with the miss
|
|
message type (1), the I/O virtual address and the permissions flags. For access
|
|
failure event, the iotlb payload has to be filled with the access failure
|
|
message type (4), the I/O virtual address and the permissions flags.
|
|
For synchronization purpose, the slave may rely on the reply-ack feature,
|
|
so the master may send a reply when operation is completed if the reply-ack
|
|
feature is negotiated and slaves requests a reply. For miss events, completed
|
|
operation means either master sent an update message containing the IOTLB entry
|
|
containing requested address and permission, or master sent nothing if the IOTLB
|
|
miss message is invalid (invalid IOVA or permission).
|
|
|
|
The master isn't expected to take the initiative to send IOTLB update messages,
|
|
as the slave sends IOTLB miss messages for the guest virtual memory areas it
|
|
needs to access.
|
|
|
|
Slave communication
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
An optional communication channel is provided if the slave declares
|
|
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_SLAVE_REQ protocol feature, to allow the slave to make
|
|
requests to the master.
|
|
|
|
The fd is provided via VHOST_USER_SET_SLAVE_REQ_FD ancillary data.
|
|
|
|
A slave may then send VHOST_USER_SLAVE_* messages to the master
|
|
using this fd communication channel.

Submitted by the vhost-user master to fetch the contents of the virtio
|
|
device configuration space, vhost-user slave's payload size MUST match
|
|
master's request, vhost-user slave uses zero length of payload to
|
|
indicate an error to vhost-user master. The vhost-user master may
|

|
|
Master payload: N/A
|
|
|
|
Send IOTLB messages with struct vhost_iotlb_msg as payload.
|
|
Slave sends such requests to notify of an IOTLB miss, or an IOTLB
|
|
access failure. If VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK is negotiated,

Id: 2
|

Equivalent ioctl: N/A

|
Slave payload: N/A
|
|
Master payload: N/A
|
|
|
|
Vhost-user slave sends such messages to notify that the virtio device's
|
|
configuration space has changed, for those host devices which can support
|
|
such feature, host driver can send VHOST_USER_GET_CONFIG message to slave
|
|
to get the latest content. If VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK is
|
|
negotiated, and slave set the VHOST_USER_NEED_REPLY flag, master must
|
|
respond with zero when operation is successfully completed, or non-zero
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
|
|
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK:
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
The original vhost-user specification only demands replies for certain
|
|
commands. This differs from the vhost protocol implementation where commands
|
|
are sent over an ioctl() call and block until the client has completed.
|
|
|
|
With this protocol extension negotiated, the sender (QEMU) can set the
|
|
"need_reply" [Bit 3] flag to any command. This indicates that
|
|
the client MUST respond with a Payload VhostUserMsg indicating success or
|
|
failure. The payload should be set to zero on success or non-zero on failure,
|
|
unless the message already has an explicit reply body.
|
|
|
|
The response payload gives QEMU a deterministic indication of the result
|
|
of the command. Today, QEMU is expected to terminate the main vhost-user
|
|
loop upon receiving such errors. In future, qemu could be taught to be more
|
|
resilient for selective requests.
|
|
|
|
For the message types that already solicit a reply from the client, the
|
|
presence of VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK or need_reply bit being set brings
|
|
no behavioural change. (See the 'Communication' section for details.)
