I guess it depends on what you report as your dev default state. For HiSilicon ACC migration driver, we set the default to _RUNNING. And when the migration starts, the destination side Qemu, set the device state to _RESUMING(vfio_load_state()). From the documentation, it looks like the assumption on default state of the VFIO dev is _RUNNING. " * 001b => Device running, which is the default state " > > Sameerali, can you please re-test and update if you see this transition ? Yes. And if I change the default state to _STOP, then the transition is from _STOP --> _RESUMING. But the documentation on State transitions doesn't have _STOP --> _RESUMING transition as valid.

Consistent behavior to userspace is of course nice, but I wonder if we were expecting a device reset to get us back to _RUNNING, or if the drivers would make use of the protocol through which a driver can nak (write error, no state change) or fault (_ERROR device state) a state change. There does need to be a way to get back to _RUNNING to support a migration failure without a reset, but would that be from _SAVING or from _STOP and what's our rationale for the excluded states? I'll see if I can dig through emails to find what was intended to be reachable from _STOP. Kirti or Connie, do you recall? Also, I think the _ERROR state is implicitly handled correctly here, its value is >MAX_STATE so we can't transition into or out of it, but a comment to indicate that it's been considered for this would be nice. > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING] = { > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_STOP] = 1, > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_SAVING] = 1, > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_SAVING | VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING] = 1, > + }, Shameer's comment is correct here, _RESUMING is a valid next state since the default state is _RUNNING. > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_SAVING] = { > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_STOP] = 1, > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING] = 1, > + }, What's the rationale that we can't return to _SAVING|_RUNNING here? > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_SAVING | VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING] = { > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING] = 1, > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_SAVING] = 1, > + }, Can't we always _STOP the device at any point? > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RESUMING] = { > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING] = 1, > + [VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_STOP] = 1, > + }, Couldn't it be possible to switch immediately to _RUNNING|_SAVING for tracing purposes?

I have no particular opinion on specific states here, however adding more states means more stuff for drivers to implement and more risk driver writers will mess up this uAPI. So only on those grounds I'd suggest to keep this to the minimum needed instead of the maximum logically possible.. Also, probably the FSM comment from the uapi header file should be moved into a function comment above this function? Jason

It looks like state transitions were largely discussed in v9 and v10 of the migration proposals: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1573578220-7530-2-git-send-email-kwankhede@nvidia.com/ https://lore.kernel.org/all/1576527700-21805-2-git-send-email-kwankhede@nvidia.com/ I'm not seeing that we really excluded many transitions there. > So only on those grounds I'd suggest to keep this to the minimum > needed instead of the maximum logically possible.. > > Also, probably the FSM comment from the uapi header file should be > moved into a function comment above this function? It's not clear this function shouldn't be anything more than: if (new_state > MAX_STATE || old_state > MAX_STATE) return false; /* exited via device reset, */ /* entered via transition fault */ return true; That's still only 5 fully interconnected states to work between, and potentially a 6th if we decide _RESUMING|_RUNNING is valid for a device supporting post-copy. In defining the device state, we tried to steer away from defining it in terms of the QEMU migration API, but rather as a set of controls that could be used to support that API to leave us some degree of independence that QEMU implementation might evolve. To that extent, it actually seems easier for a device implementation to focus on bit definition rather than the state machine node. I'd also vote that any clarification of state validity and transitions belongs in the uAPI header and a transition test function should reference that header as the source of truth, rather than the other way around. Thanks, Alex

That is certainly a different perspective, it would have been better to not express this idea as a FSM in that case... So each state in mlx5vf_pci_set_device_state() should call the correct combination of (un)freeze, (un)quiesce and so on so each state reflects a defined operation of the device? Jason

I'd expect so, for instance the implementation of entering the _STOP state presumes a previous state that where the device is apparently already quiesced. That doesn't support a direct _RUNNING -> _STOP transition where I argued in the linked threads that those states should be reachable from any other state. Thanks, Alex

The state machine is not related to QEMU specifically. The state machine defines an agreement between user application (let's say QEMU) and VFIO. If a user application would like to move, for example, from RESUMING to SAVING state, then the kernel should fail. I don't that there is a device that can support it. If you prefer we check this inside our mlx5 vfio driver, we can do it. But we think that this is a common logic according to the defined FSM.

A VM supporting migration of the device would move the device to _RESUMING to load the incoming data. If the VM leaves the device in _RUNNING, then it doesn't support migration of the device and it's out of scope how it handles that device state. Existing devices continue running regardless of whether the VM state is paused, it's only devices supporting migration where userspace could optionally have the device run state follow the VM run state.

We left with kernel now. vfio-pci today doesn't support migration, right ? state is in theory is 0 (STOP). This state machine is controlled by the migration SW. The drivers don't move state implicitly. mlx5-vfio-pci support migration and will work fine with non-migration SW (it will stay with state = 0 unless someone will move it. but nobody will) exactly like vfio-pci does today.

So you have a device that's actively modifying its internal state, performing I/O, including DMA (thereby dirtying VM memory), all while in the _STOP state? And you don't see this as a problem? There's a major inconsistency if the migration interface is telling us something different than we can actually observe through the behavior of the device. Thanks, Alex

Thanks, If we focus on mlx5 there are two device 'flags' to manage: - Device cannot issue DMAs - Device internal state cannot change (ie cannot receive DMAs) This is necessary to co-ordinate across multiple devices that might be doing peer to peer DMA between them. The whole multi-device complex should be moved to "cannot issue DMA's" then the whole complex would go to "state cannot change" and be serialized. The expected sequence at the device is thus Resuming full stop -> does not issue DMAs -> full operation Suspend full operation -> does not issue DMAs -> full stop Further the device has two actions - Trigger serializating the device state - Trigger de-serializing the device state So, what is the behavior upon each state: * 000b => Device Stopped, not saving or resuming Does not issue DMAs Internal state cannot change * 001b => Device running, which is the default state Neither flags * 010b => Stop the device & save the device state, stop-and-copy state Does not issue DMAs Internal state cannot change * 011b => Device running and save the device state, pre-copy state Neither flags (future, DMA tracking turned on) * 100b => Device stopped and the device state is resuming Does not issue DMAs Internal state cannot change * 110b => Error state ??? * 101b => Invalid state * 111b => Invalid state ??? What should the ??'s be? It looks like mlx5 doesn't use these, so it should just refuse to enter these states in the first place.. The two actions: trigger serializing the device state Done when asked to go to 010b ? trigger de-serializing the device state Done when transition from 100b -> 000b ? There is a missing state "Stop Active Transactions" which would be only "does not issue DMAs". I've seen a proposal to add that. I'm happy enough with this and it seems clean and easy enough to implement. Jason

It looks like mlx5 doesn't use these, so it > should just refuse to enter these states in the first place.. _SAVING and _RESUMING are considered mutually exclusive, therefore any combination of both of them is invalid. We've chosen to use the combination of 110b as an error state to indicate the device state is undefined, but not _RUNNING. This state is only reachable by an internal error of the driver during a state transition. The expected protocol is that if the user write to the device_state register returns an errno, the user reevaluates the device_state to determine if the desired transition is unavailable (previous state value is returned) or generated a fault (error state value returned). Due to the undefined state of the device, the only exit from the error state is to re-initialize the device state via a reset. Therefore a successful device reset should always return the device to the 001b state. The 111b state is also considered unreachable through normal means due to the _SAVING | _RESUMING conflict, but suggests the device is also _RUNNING in this undefined state. This combination has no currently defined use case and should not be reachable. The 101b state indicates _RUNNING while _RESUMING, which is simply not a mode that has been spec'd at this time as it would require some mechanism for the device to fault in state on demand. > The two actions: > trigger serializing the device state > Done when asked to go to 010b ? When the _SAVING bit is set. The exact mechanics depends on the size and volatility of the device state. A GPU might begin in pre-copy (011b) to transmit chunks of framebuffer data, recording hashes of blocks read by the user to avoid re-sending them during the stop-and-copy (010b) phase. A device with a small internal state representation may choose to forgo providing data in the pre-copy phase and entirely serialize internal state at stop-and-copy. > trigger de-serializing the device state > Done when transition from 100b -> 000b ? 100b -> 000b is not a required transition, generally this would be 100b -> 001b, ie. end state of _RUNNING vs _STOP. I think the requirement is that de-serialization is complete when the _RESUMING bit is cleared. Whether the driver chooses to de-serialize piece-wise as each block of data is written to the device or in bulk from a buffer is left to the implementation. In either case, the driver can fail the transition to !_RESUMING if the state is incomplete or otherwise corrupt. It would again be the driver's discretion if the device enters the error state or remains in _RESUMING. If the user has no valid state with which to exit the _RESUMING phase, a device reset should return the device to _RUNNING with a default initial state. > There is a missing state "Stop Active Transactions" which would be > only "does not issue DMAs". I've seen a proposal to add that. This would be to get all devices to stop issuing DMA while internal state can be modified to avoid the synchronization issue of trying to stop devices concurrently? For PCI devices we obviously have the bus master bit to manage that, but I could see how a migration extension for such support (perhaps even just wired through to BM for PCI) could be useful.

Your 'modulo trying to quiesce devices simultaneously' is correct - this is a real issue that needs to be solved. If we put one device in a state where it's internal state is immutable it can no longer accept DMA messages from the other devices. So there are two states in the HW model - do not generate DMAs and finally the immutable internal state where even external DMAs are refused. > > The expected sequence at the device is thus > > > > Resuming > > full stop -> does not issue DMAs -> full operation > > Suspend > > full operation -> does not issue DMAs -> full stop > > > > Further the device has two actions > > - Trigger serializating the device state > > - Trigger de-serializing the device state > > > > So, what is the behavior upon each state: > > > > * 000b => Device Stopped, not saving or resuming > > Does not issue DMAs > > Internal state cannot change > > > > * 001b => Device running, which is the default state > > Neither flags > > > > * 010b => Stop the device & save the device state, stop-and-copy state > > Does not issue DMAs > > Internal state cannot change > > > > * 011b => Device running and save the device state, pre-copy state > > Neither flags > > (future, DMA tracking turned on) > > > > * 100b => Device stopped and the device state is resuming > > Does not issue DMAs > > Internal state cannot change > > cannot change... other that as loaded via migration region.

Hmm, interesting, mlx5 should be doing this as well. Eg resuming with corrupt state should fail and cannot be recovered except via reset. > The 101b state indicates _RUNNING while _RESUMING, which is simply not > a mode that has been spec'd at this time as it would require some > mechanism for the device to fault in state on demand.

Here I am talking specifically about mlx5 which does not have a state capture in pre-copy. So mlx5 should capture state on 010b only, and the 011b is a NOP. > > trigger de-serializing the device state > > Done when transition from 100b -> 000b ? > > 100b -> 000b is not a required transition, generally this would be 100b > -> 001b, ie. end state of _RUNNING vs _STOP.

Thanks, I'm nervous to override the BM bit for something like this, the BM bit isn't a gentle "please coherently stop what you are doing" it is a hanbrake the OS pulls to ensure any PCI device becomes quiet.

I guess we can do it for this reason. There is no functional problem nor compatibility issue here as was mentioned. But still we need the kernel to track transitions.

The _STOP state has a specific meaning regardless of whether userspace reads the device state value. I think what you're suggesting is that the device reports itself as _STOP'd but it's actually _RUNNING. Is that the compatibility workaround, create a self inconsistency? We cannot impose on userspace to move a device from _STOP to _RUNNING simply because the device supports the migration region, nor should we report a device state that is inconsistent with the actual device state. > >> Maybe we need to rename STOP state.

Potentially it's a means to update a saved device migration data stream to a newer format using an intermediate driver version. If a driver is written such that it simply sees clearing the _RESUME bit as an indicator to de-serialize the data stream to the device, and setting the _SAVING flag as an indicator to re-serialize that data stream from the device, then this is just a means to make use of existing data paths. The uAPI specifies a means for drivers to reject a state change, but that risks failing to support a transition which might find mainstream use cases. I don't think common code should be responsible for filtering out viable transitions. Thanks, Alex

When we add the migration extension this cannot change, so after open_device() the device should be operational. The reported state in the migration region should accurately reflect what the device is currently doing. If the device is operational then it must report running, not stopped. Thus a driver cannot just zero initalize the migration "registers", they have to be accurate. > > > Maybe we need to rename STOP state.

It seems semantically fine to me, as per Alex's note what will happen is defined: driver will see RESUMING toggle off so it will trigger a de-serialization driver will see SAVING toggled on so it will serialize the new state (either the pre-copy state or the post-copy state dpending on the running bit) Depending on the running bit the device may or may not be woken up. If de-serialization fails then the state goes to error and SAVING is ignored. The driver logic probably looks something like this: // Running toggles off if (oldstate & RUNNING != newstate & RUNNING && oldstate & RUNNING) queice freeze // Resuming toggles off if (oldstate & RESUMING != newstate & RESUMING && oldstate & RESUMING) deserialize // Saving toggles on if (oldstate & SAVING != newstate & SAVING && newstate & SAVING) if (!(newstate & RUNNING)) serialize post copy // Running toggles on if (oldstate & RUNNING != newstate & RUNNING && newstate & RUNNING) unfreeze unqueice I'd have to check that carefully against the state chart from my last email though.. And need to check how the "Stop Active Transactions" bit fits in there Jason

If a device is !_RUNNING it should not be advancing its internal state, therefore state-in == state-out. > did you describe a case where you migrate from source to dst and then > back to source with a new migration data format ? I'm speculating that as the driver evolves, the migration data stream generated from the device's migration region can change. Hopefully in compatible ways. The above sequence of restoring and extracting state without the complication of the device running could help to validate compatibility. Thanks, Alex

You've missed the point. This isn't a FSM. It is a series of three control bits that we have assigned logical meaning their combinatoins.

The point is what bits/state you set during the resume phase: 1. you initialize at _RUNNING bit == 001b. No problem. 2. state stream arrives, migration SW raise _RESUMING bit. should it be 101b or 100b ? for now it's 100b. But according to your statement is should be 101b (invalid today) since device state can change. right ? 3. Then you should indicate that all the state was serialized to the device (actually to all the pci devices). 100b mean RESUMING and not RUNNING so maybe this can say RESUMED and state can't change now ? 4. all devices move to running 001b only after all devices moved to 100b. Otherwise, devices will start changing each other internal states. -Max. > > Jason

The device just got FLR'd and it should be in a clean state and operating.

I don't know what this means, when the resuming bit is set the migration data buffer is wiped and userspace should beging loading it. When the resuming bit is cleared whatever is in the migration buffer is deserialized into the current device internal state. It is the opposite of saving. When the saving bit is set the current device state is serialized into the migration buffer and userspace and reads it out. > 1. you initialize at _RUNNING bit == 001b.

Running means the device state chanages independently, the controlled change of the device state via deserializing the migration buffer is different. Both running and saving commands need running to be zero. ie commands that are marked invalid in the uapi comment are rejected at the start - and that is probably the core helper we should provide. > 3.

State is not loaded into the device until the resuming bit is cleared. There is no RESUMED state until we incorporate Artem's proposal for an additional bit eg 1001b - running with DMA master disabled. Jason

Think the VM is booting for the first time. During the resume phase in the dst, the VM is paused and not booting. Migration SW is waiting to get memory and state from SRC. The device will start from the exact point that was in the src. it's exactly "000b => Device Stopped, not saving or resuming" > >>>>> driver will see RESUMING toggle off so it will trigger a >>>>> de-serialization >>>> You mean stop serialization ? >>> No, I mean it will take all the migration data that has been uploaded >>> through the migration region and de-serialize it into active device >>> state. >> you should feed the device way before that. > I don't know what this means, when the resuming bit is set the > migration data buffer is wiped and userspace should beging loading > it.

Nobody is preventing other drivers to start deserializing device state into the device during RESUMING bit on. Or is this a must ? > > It is the opposite of saving.

So if we moved from 100b to 010b somehow, one should deserialized its buffer to the device, and then serialize it to migration region again ? I guess its doable since the device is freeze and quiesced. But moving from 100b to 011b is not possible, right ? > > Jason

The kernel cannot know at open_device time which case userspace is trying to do. Due to backwards compat we assume userspace is going to boot a fresh VM. > Well, this is your design for the driver implementation. Nobody is > preventing other drivers to start deserializing device state into the device > during RESUMING bit on. It is a logical model. Devices can stream the migration data directly into the internal state if they like. It just creates more conditions where they have report an error state. > So if we moved from 100b to 010b somehow, one should deserialized its buffer > to the device, and then serialize it to migration region again ? Yes. > I guess its doable since the device is freeze and quiesced. But moving from > 100b to 011b is not possible, right ? Why not? 100b to 011b is no different than going indirectly 100b -> 001b -> 011b The time spent in 001b is just negligable. Jason
