Wrong polarity. The kernel should not maintain the policy. By default every wakeup, whether from host kernel accesses or via user accesses that do a pm-get should signal a wakeup to userspace. Userspace needs to opt-out of that wakeup to let the kernel automatically re-enter low power and userspace needs to maintain the policy for which devices it wants that to occur. > + * > + * For the IOCTL call with VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_GET: > + * > + * - VFIO_PM_LOW_POWER_ENTER will be set if the user has put the device into > + * the low power state, otherwise, VFIO_PM_LOW_POWER_EXIT will be set. > + * > + * - If the device is in a normal power state currently, then > + * VFIO_PM_LOW_POWER_REENTERY_DISABLE will be set for the devices where low > + * power re-entry is disabled by default.

What if the feature SET ioctl took an eventfd and that eventfd was one time use. Calling the ioctl would setup the eventfd to notify the user on wakeup and call pm-put. Any access to the device via host, ioctl, or region would be wrapped in pm-get/put and the pm-resume handler would perform the matching pm-get to balance the feature SET and signal the eventfd. If the user opts-out by not providing a wakeup eventfd, then the pm-resume handler does not perform a pm-get. Possibly we could even allow mmap access if a wake-up eventfd is provided. The feature GET ioctl would be used to exit low power behavior and would be a no-op if the wakeup eventfd had already been signaled.

So that means, in the kernel side, we don’t have to maintain the list which currently contains NVIDIA device ID. Also, in our updated approach, this opt-out of that wake-up means that user has not provided eventfd in the feature SET ioctl.

This seems a better option. It will help in making the ioctl simpler and we don’t have to add a separate index for PME which I added in patch 6. > If the user opts-out by not providing a wakeup eventfd, > then the pm-resume handler does not perform a pm-get. Possibly we > could even allow mmap access if a wake-up eventfd is provided. Sorry. I am not clear on this mmap part. We currently invalidates mapping before going into runtime-suspend. Now, if use tries do mmap then do we need some extra handling in the fault handler ?

Yes, I'm imagining that if the user hasn't provided a one-shot wake-up eventfd, that's the opt-out for being notified of device wakes. For example, pm-resume would have something like: if (vdev->pm_wake_eventfd) { eventfd_signal(vdev->pm_wake_eventfd, 1); vdev->pm_wake_eventfd = NULL; pm_runtime_get_noresume(dev); } (eventfd pseudo handling substantially simplified) So w/o a wake-up eventfd, the user would need to call the pm feature exit ioctl to elevate the pm reference to prevent it going back to low power. The pm feature exit ioctl would be optional if a wake eventfd is provided, so some piece of the eventfd context would need to remain to determine whether a pm-get is necessary. > >> + * > >> + * For the IOCTL call with VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_GET: > >> + * > >> + * - VFIO_PM_LOW_POWER_ENTER will be set if the user has put the device into > >> + * the low power state, otherwise, VFIO_PM_LOW_POWER_EXIT will be set. > >> + * > >> + * - If the device is in a normal power state currently, then > >> + * VFIO_PM_LOW_POWER_REENTERY_DISABLE will be set for the devices where low > >> + * power re-entry is disabled by default.

The option that I'm thinking about is if the mmap fault handler is wrapped in a pm-get/put then we could actually populate the mmap. In the case where the pm-get triggers the wake-eventfd in pm-resume, the device doesn't return to low power when the mmap fault handler calls pm-put. This possibly allows that we could actually invalidate mmaps on pm-suspend rather than in the pm feature enter ioctl, essentially the same as we're doing for intx. I wonder though if this allows the possibility that we just bounce between mmap fault and pm-suspend. So long as some work can be done, for instance the pm-suspend occurs asynchronously to the pm-put, this might be ok. > > The > > feature GET ioctl would be used to exit low power behavior and would be > > a no-op if the wakeup eventfd had already been signaled. Thanks, > > > > I will use the GET ioctl for low power exit instead of returning the > current status. Note that Yishai is proposing a device DMA dirty logging feature where the stop and start are exposed via SET on separate features, rather than SET/GET. We should probably maintain some consistency between these use cases. Possibly we might even want two separate pm enter ioctls, one with the wake eventfd and one without. I think this is the sort of thing Jason is describing for future expansion of the dirty tracking uAPI. Thanks, Alex

But in the normal use case, the situation should never arise where user should access any mmaped region when user has already put the device into D3 (D3hot or D3cold). This can only happen if there is some bug in the guest driver or user is doing wrong sequence. Do we need to add handling to officially support this part ? pm-get can take more than a second for resume for some devices and will doing this in fault handler be safe ? Also, we will add this support only when wake-eventfd is provided so still w/o wake-eventfd case, the mmap access will still generate fault. So, we will have different behavior. Will that be acceptable ? >>> The >>> feature GET ioctl would be used to exit low power behavior and would be >>> a no-op if the wakeup eventfd had already been signaled.

VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_PM_ENTRY VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_PM_ENTRY_WITH_WAKEUP VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_PM_EXIT And only the second one need structure which will have only one field for eventfd and we need to return error if wakeup-eventfd is not provided in the second feature ? Do we need to support GET operation also for these ? We can skip GET operation since that won’t be very useful. Regards, Abhishek

Thanks, > > Alex > If we implement GET operation then it can return the current status. For example, for VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_PM_ENTRY can return the information whether user has put the device into low power previously. But this information is not much useful as such and it requires to add a structure where this information needs to be filled. Also, the GET will again cause the device wake-up. So, for these device features, we can support only SET operation. I checked the Yishai DMA logging patches and there start and stop seems to be supporting only SET operation and there is separate feature which supports only GET operation. Regards, Abhishek

This patch adds the new feature VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_POWER_MANAGEMENT for the power management in the header file. The implementation for the same will be added in the subsequent patches. With the standard registers, all power states cannot be achieved. The platform-based power management needs to be involved to go into the lowest power state. For all the platform-based power management, this device feature can be used. This device feature uses flags to specify the different operations. In the future, if any more power management functionality is needed then a new flag can be added to it. It supports both GET and SET operations.
