Subject: [PATCH tip v6 3/5] KVM: use simple waitqueue for vcpu->wq
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2016 15:44:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1453992270-4688-4-git-send-email-daniel.wagner@bmw-carit.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1453992270-4688-1-git-send-email-daniel.wagner@bmw-carit.de>
From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
The problem:
On -rt, an emulated LAPIC timer instances has the following path:
1) hard interrupt
2) ksoftirqd is scheduled
3) ksoftirqd wakes up vcpu thread
4) vcpu thread is scheduled
This extra context switch introduces unnecessary latency in the
LAPIC path for a KVM guest.
The solution:
Allow waking up vcpu thread from hardirq context,
thus avoiding the need for ksoftirqd to be scheduled.
Normal waitqueues make use of spinlocks, which on -RT
are sleepable locks. Therefore, waking up a waitqueue
waiter involves locking a sleeping lock, which
is not allowed from hard interrupt context.
cyclictest command line:
This patch reduces the average latency in my tests from 14us to 11us.
Daniel writes:
Paolo asked for numbers from kvm-unit-tests/tscdeadline_latency
benchmark on mainline. The test was run 1000 times on
tip/sched/core 4.4.0-rc8-01134-g0905f04:
./x86-run x86/tscdeadline_latency.flat -cpu host
with idle=poll.
The test seems not to deliver really stable numbers though most of
them are smaller. Paolo write:
"Anything above ~10000 cycles means that the host went to C1 or
lower---the number means more or less nothing in that case.
The mean shows an improvement indeed."
