The Allwinner H3 SoC uses Cortex-A7 cores which support virtualization.
However, today we are configuring QEMU to use HVC as PSCI conduit.
That means HVC calls get trapped into QEMU instead of the guest's own
emulated CPU and thus break the guest's ability to execute virtualization.
Fix this by moving to SMC as conduit, freeing up HYP completely to the VM.

This patch has a handful of modifications for the recent added
FORM2 support:
- to not allocate more than the necessary size in 'distance_table'.
At this moment the array is oversized due to allocating uint32_t for
all elements, when most of them fits in an uint8_t. Fix it by
changing the array to uint8_t and allocating the exact size;
- use stl_be_p() to store the uint32_t at the start of 'distance_table';
- use sizeof(uint32_t) to skip the uint32_t length when populating the
distances;
- use the NUMA_DISTANCE_MIN macro from sysemu/numa.h to avoid hardcoding
the local distance value.

numa_complete_configuration() in hw/core/numa.c always adds a NUMA node
for the pSeries machine if none was specified, but without node distance
information for the single node created.
NUMA FORM1 affinity code didn't rely on numa_state information to do its
job, but FORM2 does. As is now, this is the result of a pSeries guest
with NUMA FORM2 affinity when no NUMA nodes is specified:
$ numactl -H
available: 1 nodes (0)
node 0 cpus: 0
node 0 size: 16222 MB
node 0 free: 15681 MB
No distance information available.
This can be amended in spapr_numa_FORM2_write_rtas_tables(). We're
enforcing that the local distance (the distance to the node to itself) is
always 10. This allows for the proper creation of the NUMA distance tables,
fixing the output of 'numactl -H' in the guest:
$ numactl -H
available: 1 nodes (0)
node 0 cpus: 0
node 0 size: 16222 MB
node 0 free: 15685 MB

The main feature of FORM2 affinity support is the separation of NUMA
distances from ibm,associativity information. This allows for a more
flexible and straightforward NUMA distance assignment without relying on
complex associations between several levels of NUMA via
ibm,associativity matches. Another feature is its extensibility. This base
support contains the facilities for NUMA distance assignment, but in the
future more facilities will be added for latency, performance, bandwidth
and so on.
This patch implements the base FORM2 affinity support as follows:
- the use of FORM2 associativity is indicated by using bit 2 of byte 5
of ibm,architecture-vec-5. A FORM2 aware guest can choose to use FORM1
or FORM2 affinity. Setting both forms will default to FORM2. We're not
advertising FORM2 for pseries-6.1 and older machine versions to prevent
guest visible changes in those;
- ibm,associativity-reference-points has a new semantic. Instead of
being used to calculate distances via NUMA levels, it's now used to
indicate the primary domain index in the ibm,associativity domain of
each resource. In our case it's set to {0x4}, matching the position
where we already place logical_domain_id;
- two new RTAS DT artifacts are introduced: ibm,numa-lookup-index-table
and ibm,numa-distance-table. The index table is used to list all the
NUMA logical domains of the platform, in ascending order, and allows for
spartial NUMA configurations (although QEMU ATM doesn't support that).
ibm,numa-distance-table is an array that contains all the distances from
the first NUMA node to all other nodes, then the second NUMA node
distances to all other nodes and so on;
- get_max_dist_ref_points(), get_numa_assoc_size() and get_associativity()
now checks for OV5_FORM2_AFFINITY and returns FORM2 values if the guest
selected FORM2 affinity during CAS.

FORM2 NUMA affinity is prepared to deal with empty (memory/cpu less)
NUMA nodes. This is used by the DAX KMEM driver to locate a PAPR SCM
device that has a different latency than the original NUMA node from the
regular memory. FORM2 is also able to deal with asymmetric NUMA
distances gracefully, something that our FORM1 implementation doesn't
do.
Move these FORM1 verifications to a new function and wait until after
CAS, when we're sure that we're sticking with FORM1, to enforce them.

Introducing a new NUMA affinity, FORM2, requires a new mechanism to
switch between affinity modes after CAS. Also, we want FORM2 data
structures and functions to be completely separated from the existing
FORM1 code, allowing us to avoid adding new code that inherits the
existing complexity of FORM1.
The idea of switching values used by the write_dt() functions in
spapr_numa.c was already introduced in the previous patch, and
the same approach will be used when dealing with the FORM1 and FORM2
arrays.
We can accomplish that by that by renaming the existing numa_assoc_array
to FORM1_assoc_array, which now is used exclusively to handle FORM1 affinity
data. A new helper get_associativity() is then introduced to be used by the
write_dt() functions to retrieve the current ibm,associativity array of
a given node, after considering affinity selection that might have been
done during CAS. All code that was using numa_assoc_array now needs to
retrieve the array by calling this function.
This will allow for an easier plug of FORM2 data later on.

The next preliminary step to introduce NUMA FORM2 affinity is to make
the existing code independent of FORM1 macros and values, i.e.
MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS, NUMA_ASSOC_SIZE and VCPU_ASSOC_SIZE. This patch
accomplishes that by doing the following:
- move the NUMA related macros from spapr.h to spapr_numa.c where they
are used. spapr.h gets instead a 'NUMA_NODES_MAX_NUM' macro that is used
to refer to the maximum number of NUMA nodes, including GPU nodes, that
the machine can support;
- MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS and NUMA_ASSOC_SIZE are renamed to
FORM1_DIST_REF_POINTS and FORM1_NUMA_ASSOC_SIZE. These FORM1 specific
macros are used in FORM1 init functions;
- code that uses MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS now retrieves the
max_dist_ref_points value using get_max_dist_ref_points().
NUMA_ASSOC_SIZE is replaced by get_numa_assoc_size() and VCPU_ASSOC_SIZE
is replaced by get_vcpu_assoc_size(). These functions are used by the
generic device tree functions and h_home_node_associativity() and will
allow them to switch between FORM1 and FORM2 without changing their core
logic.

When first introduced, 'legacy_numa' was a way to refer to guests that
either wouldn't be affected by associativity domain calculations, namely
the ones with only 1 NUMA node, and pre 5.2 guests that shouldn't be
affected by it because it would be an userspace change. Calling these
cases 'legacy_numa' was a convenient way to label these cases.
We're about to introduce a new NUMA affinity, FORM2, and this concept
of 'legacy_numa' is now a bit misleading because, although it is called
'legacy' it is in fact a FORM1 exclusive contraint.
This patch removes spapr_machine_using_legacy_numa() and open code the
conditions in each caller. While we're at it, move the chunk inside
spapr_numa_FORM1_affinity_init() that sets all numa_assoc_array domains
with 'node_id' to spapr_numa_define_FORM1_domains(). This chunk was
being executed if !pre_5_2_numa_associativity and num_nodes => 1, the
same conditions in which spapr_numa_define_FORM1_domains() is called
shortly after.

OK, that's a big rewrite of the logic.
Pre-patch we have an always running coroutine - connection_co. It does
reply receiving and reconnecting. And it leads to a lot of difficult
and unobvious code around drained sections and context switch. We also
abuse bs->in_flight counter which is increased for connection_co and
temporary decreased in points where we want to allow drained section to
begin. One of these place is in another file: in nbd_read_eof() in
nbd/client.c.
We also cancel reconnect and requests waiting for reconnect on drained
begin which is not correct. And this patch fixes that.
Let's finally drop this always running coroutine and go another way:
do both reconnect and receiving in request coroutines.
The detailed list of changes below (in the sequence of diff hunks).
1. receiving coroutines are woken directly from nbd_channel_error, when
we change s->state
2. nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel(): we don't have drain_begin now,
and in nbd_teardown_connection() all requests should already be
finished (and reconnect is done from request). So
nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel() is called from
nbd_cancel_in_flight() (to cancel the request that is doing
nbd_co_establish_connection()) and from reconnect_delay_timer_cb()
(previously we didn't need it, as reconnect delay only should cancel
active requests not the reconnection itself). But now reconnection
itself is done in the separate thread (we now call
nbd_client_connection_enable_retry() in nbd_open()), and we need to
cancel the requests that wait in nbd_co_establish_connection()
now).
2A. We do receive headers in request coroutine. But we also should
dispatch replies for other pending requests. So,
nbd_connection_entry() is turned into nbd_receive_replies(), which
does reply dispatching while it receives other request headers, and
returns when it receives the requested header.
3. All old staff around drained sections and context switch is dropped.
In details:
- we don't need to move connection_co to new aio context, as we
don't have connection_co anymore
- we don't have a fake "request" of connection_co (extra increasing
in_flight), so don't care with it in drain_begin/end
- we don't stop reconnection during drained section anymore. This
means that drain_begin may wait for a long time (up to
reconnect_delay). But that's an improvement and more correct
behavior see below[*]
4. In nbd_teardown_connection() we don't have to wait for
connection_co, as it is dropped. And cleanup for s->ioc and nbd_yank
is moved here from removed connection_co.
5. In nbd_co_do_establish_connection() we now should handle
NBD_CLIENT_CONNECTING_NOWAIT: if new request comes when we are in
NBD_CLIENT_CONNECTING_NOWAIT, it still should call
nbd_co_establish_connection() (who knows, maybe the connection was
already established by another thread in the background). But we
shouldn't wait: if nbd_co_establish_connection() can't return new
channel immediately the request should fail (we are in
NBD_CLIENT_CONNECTING_NOWAIT state).
6. nbd_reconnect_attempt() is simplified: it's now easier to wait for
other requests in the caller, so here we just assert that fact.
Also delay time is now initialized here: we can easily detect first
attempt and start a timer.
7. nbd_co_reconnect_loop() is dropped, we don't need it. Reconnect
retries are fully handle by thread (nbd/client-connection.c), delay
timer we initialize in nbd_reconnect_attempt(), we don't have to
bother with s->drained and friends. nbd_reconnect_attempt() now
called from nbd_co_send_request().
8. nbd_connection_entry is dropped: reconnect is now handled by
nbd_co_send_request(), receiving reply is now handled by
nbd_receive_replies(): all handled from request coroutines.
9. So, welcome new nbd_receive_replies() called from request coroutine,
that receives reply header instead of nbd_connection_entry().
Like with sending requests, only one coroutine may receive in a
moment. So we introduce receive_mutex, which is locked around
nbd_receive_reply(). It also protects some related fields. Still,
full audit of thread-safety in nbd driver is a separate task.
New function waits for a reply with specified handle being received
and works rather simple:
Under mutex:
- if current handle is 0, do receive by hand. If another handle
received - switch to other request coroutine, release mutex and
yield. Otherwise return success
- if current handle == requested handle, we are done
- otherwise, release mutex and yield
10: in nbd_co_send_request() we now do nbd_reconnect_attempt() if
needed. Also waiting in free_sema queue we now wait for one of two
conditions:
- connectED, in_flight < MAX_NBD_REQUESTS (so we can start new one)
- connectING, in_flight == 0, so we can call
nbd_reconnect_attempt()
And this logic is protected by s->send_mutex
Also, on failure we don't have to care of removed s->connection_co
11. nbd_co_do_receive_one_chunk(): now instead of yield() and wait for
s->connection_co we just call new nbd_receive_replies().
12. nbd_co_receive_one_chunk(): place where s->reply.handle becomes 0,
which means that handling of the whole reply is finished. Here we
need to wake one of coroutines sleeping in nbd_receive_replies().
If none are sleeping - do nothing. That's another behavior change: we
don't have endless recv() in the idle time. It may be considered as
a drawback. If so, it may be fixed later.
13. nbd_reply_chunk_iter_receive(): don't care about removed
connection_co, just ping in_flight waiters.
14. Don't create connection_co, enable retry in the connection thread
(we don't have own reconnect loop anymore)
15. We now need to add a nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel() call in
nbd_cancel_in_flight(), to cancel the request that is doing a
connection attempt.
[*], ok, now we don't cancel reconnect on drain begin. That's correct:
reconnect feature leads to possibility of long-running requests (up
to reconnect delay). Still, drain begin is not a reason to kill
long requests. We should wait for them.
This also means, that we can again reproduce a dead-lock, described
in 8c517de24a.
Why we are OK with it:
1. Now this is not absolutely-dead dead-lock: the vm is unfrozen
after reconnect delay. Actually 8c517de24a fixed a bug in
NBD logic, that was not described in 8c517de24a and led to
forever dead-lock. The problem was that nobody woke the free_sema
queue, but drain_begin can't finish until there is a request in
free_sema queue. Now we have a reconnect delay timer that works
well.
2. It's not a problem of the NBD driver, but of the ide code,
because it does drain_begin under the global mutex; the problem
doesn't reproduce when using scsi instead of ide.

When we don't have a connection and blocking is false, we return NULL
but don't set errp. That's wrong.
We have two paths for calling nbd_co_establish_connection():
1. nbd_open() -> nbd_do_establish_connection() -> ...
but that will never set blocking=false
2. nbd_reconnect_attempt() -> nbd_co_do_establish_connection() -> ...

So, we are safe with our wrong errp policy in

We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters
on all io paths.
Main motivation is realization of 64-bit write_zeroes operation for
fast zeroing large disk chunks, up to the whole disk.
We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and
with possibility for signed return type (where negative value means
error).
So, convert driver discard handlers bytes parameter to int64_t.
The only caller of all updated function is bdrv_co_pdiscard in
block/io.c. It is already prepared to work with 64bit requests, but
pass at most max(bs->bl.max_pdiscard, INT_MAX) to the driver.
Let's look at all updated functions:
blkdebug: all calculations are still OK, thanks to
bdrv_check_qiov_request().
both rule_check and bdrv_co_pdiscard are 64bit
blklogwrites: pass to blk_loc_writes_co_log which is 64bit
blkreplay, copy-on-read, filter-compress: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard, OK
copy-before-write: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard which is 64bit and to
cbw_do_copy_before_write which is 64bit
file-posix: one handler calls raw_account_discard() is 64bit and both
handlers calls raw_do_pdiscard(). Update raw_do_pdiscard, which pass
to RawPosixAIOData::aio_nbytes, which is 64bit (and calls
raw_account_discard())
gluster: somehow, third argument of glfs_discard_async is size_t.
Let's set max_pdiscard accordingly.
iscsi: iscsi_allocmap_set_invalid is 64bit,
!is_byte_request_lun_aligned is 64bit.
list.num is uint32_t. Let's clarify max_pdiscard and
pdiscard_alignment.
mirror_top: pass to bdrv_mirror_top_do_write() which is
64bit
nbd: protocol limitation. max_pdiscard is alredy set strict enough,
keep it as is for now.
nvme: buf.nlb is uint32_t and we do shift. So, add corresponding limits
to nvme_refresh_limits().
preallocate: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard() which is 64bit.
rbd: pass to qemu_rbd_start_co() which is 64bit.
qcow2: calculations are still OK, thanks to bdrv_check_qiov_request(),

throttle: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard() which is 64bit and to

We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and

So, convert driver write_zeroes handlers bytes parameter to int64_t.
The only caller of all updated function is bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes().
bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes() itself is of course OK with widening of
callee parameter type. Also, bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes()'s
max_write_zeroes is limited to INT_MAX. So, updated functions all are
safe, they will not get "bytes" larger than before.
Still, let's look through all updated functions, and add assertions to
the ones which are actually unprepared to values larger than INT_MAX.
For these drivers also set explicit max_pwrite_zeroes limit.
Let's go:
blkdebug: calculations can't overflow, thanks to
bdrv_check_qiov_request() in generic layer. rule_check() and
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() both have 64bit argument.
blklogwrites: pass to blk_log_writes_co_log() with 64bit argument.
blkreplay, copy-on-read, filter-compress: pass to
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() which is OK
copy-before-write: Calls cbw_do_copy_before_write() and
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes, both have 64bit argument.
file-posix: both handler calls raw_do_pwrite_zeroes, which is updated.
In raw_do_pwrite_zeroes() calculations are OK due to
bdrv_check_qiov_request(), bytes go to RawPosixAIOData::aio_nbytes
which is uint64_t.
Check also where that uint64_t gets handed:
handle_aiocb_write_zeroes_block() passes a uint64_t[2] to
ioctl(BLKZEROOUT), handle_aiocb_write_zeroes() calls do_fallocate()
which takes off_t (and we compile to always have 64-bit off_t), as
does handle_aiocb_write_zeroes_unmap. All look safe.
gluster: bytes go to GlusterAIOCB::size which is int64_t and to
glfs_zerofill_async works with off_t.
iscsi: Aha, here we deal with iscsi_writesame16_task() that has
uint32_t num_blocks argument and iscsi_writesame16_task() has
uint16_t argument. Make comments, add assertions and clarify
max_pwrite_zeroes calculation.
iscsi_allocmap_() functions already has int64_t argument
is_byte_request_lun_aligned is simple to update, do it.
mirror_top: pass to bdrv_mirror_top_do_write which has uint64_t
argument
nbd: Aha, here we have protocol limitation, and NBDRequest::len is
uint32_t. max_pwrite_zeroes is cleanly set to 32bit value, so we are
OK for now.
nvme: Again, protocol limitation. And no inherent limit for
write-zeroes at all. But from code that calculates cdw12 it's obvious
that we do have limit and alignment. Let's clarify it. Also,
obviously the code is not prepared to handle bytes=0. Let's handle
this case too.
trace events already 64bit
preallocate: pass to handle_write() and bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes(), both
64bit.
rbd: pass to qemu_rbd_start_co() which is 64bit.
qcow2: offset + bytes and alignment still works good (thanks to
bdrv_check_qiov_request()), so tail calculation is OK
qcow2_subcluster_zeroize() has 64bit argument, should be OK
trace events updated
qed: qed_co_request wants int nb_sectors. Also in code we have size_t
used for request length which may be 32bit. So, let's just keep
INT_MAX as a limit (aligning it down to pwrite_zeroes_alignment) and
don't care.
raw-format: Is OK. raw_adjust_offset and bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes are both
64bit.
throttle: Both throttle_group_co_io_limits_intercept() and
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() are 64bit.
vmdk: pass to vmdk_pwritev which is 64bit
quorum: pass to quorum_co_pwritev() which is 64bit
Hooray!
At this point all block drivers are prepared to support 64bit
write-zero requests, or have explicitly set max_pwrite_zeroes.

allowed values.
qemu(1) says:
The default mode is cache=writeback.
So users have no reason to assume that qemu-nbd is using writethough
cache mode. The only hint is the painfully slow writing when using the
defaults.
Looking in git history, it seems that qemu used writethrough in the past
to support broken guests that did not flush data properly, or could not
flush due to limitations in qemu. But qemu-nbd clients can use
NBD_CMD_FLUSH to flush data, so using writethrough does not help anyone.
Change the default cache mode to writback, and document the default and
available values properly in the online help and manual.
With this change converting image via qemu-nbd is 3.5 times faster.
$ qemu-img create dst.img 50g
$ qemu-nbd -t -f raw -k /tmp/nbd.sock dst.img
Before this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 83.639 s ± 5.970 s [User: 2.733 s, System: 6.112 s]
Range (min … max): 76.749 s … 87.245 s 3 runs
After this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 23.522 s ± 0.433 s [User: 2.083 s, System: 5.475 s]
Range (min … max): 23.234 s … 24.019 s 3 runs
Users can avoid the issue by using --cache=writeback[1] but the defaults
should give good performance for the common use case.

Clarify that @device is optional and that 'path' is the device
path from QOM.
