cpu-exec: Add sleeping algorithm The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock is in advance compared to the host clock (we use the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec. At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed. However, the function used for measuring the real time (qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive. We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time. Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function. During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one. As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock. Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which is still acceptable for our use case. The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at 3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb built with buildroot. Currently, on our test machine, the lowest icount we can achieve that is suitable for aligning the 2 clocks is 6. However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are slower than the cpu tests (using stress).

tcg: drop global lock during TCG code execution This finally allows TCG to benefit from the iothread introduction: Drop the global mutex while running pure TCG CPU code. Reacquire the lock when entering MMIO or PIO emulation, or when leaving the TCG loop. We have to revert a few optimization for the current TCG threading model, namely kicking the TCG thread in qemu_mutex_lock_iothread and not kicking it in qemu_cpu_kick. We also need to disable RAM block reordering until we have a more efficient locking mechanism at hand. Still, a Linux x86 UP guest and my Musicpal ARM model boot fine here. These numbers demonstrate where we gain something: 20338 jan 20 0 331m 75m 6904 R 99 0.9 0:50.95 qemu-system-arm 20337 jan 20 0 331m 75m 6904 S 20 0.9 0:26.50 qemu-system-arm The guest CPU was fully loaded, but the iothread could still run mostly independent on a second core. Without the patch we don't get beyond 32206 jan 20 0 330m 73m 7036 R 82 0.9 1:06.00 qemu-system-arm 32204 jan 20 0 330m 73m 7036 S 21 0.9 0:17.03 qemu-system-arm We don't benefit significantly, though, when the guest is not fully loading a host CPU.

tb hash: track translated blocks with qht 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.

tb hash: hash phys_pc, pc, and flags with xxhash 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 > consisting of only a delay slot). > It may well still turn out to be reasonable to ignore cs_base for hashing. 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.

tb hash: hash phys_pc, pc, and flags with xxhash 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 > consisting of only a delay slot). > It may well still turn out to be reasonable to ignore cs_base for hashing. 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.

tb hash: track translated blocks with qht 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: http://imgur.com/a/Awgnq Each test runs 5 times, and the entire QEMU process is pinned to a single core for repeatability of results.

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.

cpu-exec: Add sleeping algorithm The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock is in advance compared to the host clock (we use the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec. At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed. However, the function used for measuring the real time (qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive. We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time. Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function. During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one. As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock. Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which is still acceptable for our use case. The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at 3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb built with buildroot. Currently, on our test machine, the lowest icount we can achieve that is suitable for aligning the 2 clocks is 6. However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are slower than the cpu tests (using stress).
