[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/34] pc: ACPI memory hotplug


From: Igor Mammedov
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/34] pc: ACPI memory hotplug
Date: Tue, 27 May 2014 15:00:57 +0200

NOTE to commiter:
 * update precompiled ACPI hex files for iasl-less hosts
   and ACPI tables test to match new ACPI tables.

What's new since v9:
 * drop usage of error_is_set()
 * exit QEMU if it's started with memory hotplug but
   compat machine doesn't support it
 * rename cpu_hotplug_defs.h to pc-hotplug.h
 * use subsection when migrating acpi memory hotplug state
 * add property to PC_MACHINE for getting hotplug memory region size

What's new since v8:
 * rebased on top of Marcel's QOMyfing machine work
    depends on patch from qom-next:
     "machine: Conversion of QEMUMachineInitArgs to MachineState"
 * fixed QEMU abort if it's running in daemonized mode
 * fixed leak in memdev backend
 * introduced custom PCMachine
 * DIMM devices are now bus-less and use bus-less hotplug method
 * DIMMDevice: renamed property/field 'start' to 'addr'
 * ACPI tables:
   * avoid punching hotples in PCI CRS by placing
     MEMORY_HOPTLUG_DEVICE on PCI0 bus
 * incorporated most of comments/fixes from reviewers

What's new since v7:
* Per Andreas' suggestion dropped DIMMBus concept.
* Added hotplug binding for bus-less devices
* DIMM device is split to backend and frontend. Therefore following
  command/options were added for supporting it:

  For memory-ram backend:
      CLI: -object-add memory-ram,
          with options: 'id' and 'size'
  For dimm frontend:
      option "size" became readonly, pulling it's size from attached backend
      added option "memdev" for specifying backend by 'id'

* dropped support for 32 bit guests
* failed hotplug action doesn't consume 1 slot anymore
* vaious fixes adressing reviewer's comments most of them in ACPI part
---

This series allows to hotplug 'arbitrary' DIMM devices specifying size,
NUMA node mapping (guest side), slot and address where to map it, at runtime.

Due to ACPI limitation there is need to specify a number of possible
DIMM devices. For this task -m option was extended to support
following format:

  -m [mem=]RamSize[,slots=N,maxmem=M]

To allow memory hotplug user must specify a pair of additional parameters:
    'slots' - number of possible increments
    'maxmem' - max possible total memory size QEMU is allowed to use,
               including RamSize.

minimal monitor command syntax to hotplug DIMM device:

  object_add memory-ram,id=memX,size=1G
  device_add dimm,id=dimmX,memdev=memX

DIMM device provides following properties that could be used with
device_add / -device to alter default behavior:

  id    - unique string identifying device [mandatory]
  slot  - number in range [0-slots) [optional], if not specified
          the first free slot is used
  node  - NUMA node id [optional] (default: 0)
  size  - amount of memory to add, readonly derived from backing memdev
  addr - guest's physical address where to plug DIMM [optional],
          if not specified the first gap in hotplug memory region
          that fits DIMM is used

 -device option could be used for adding potentially hotunplugable DIMMs
and also for specifying hotplugged DIMMs in migration case.

Tested guests:
 - RHEL 6x64
 - Windows 2012DCx64
 - Windows 2008DCx64

Known limitations/bugs/TODOs:
 - hot-remove is not supported, yet
 - max number of supported DIMM devices 256 (due to ACPI object name
   limit), could be increased creating several containers and putting
   DIMMs there. (exercise for future) 
 - e820 table doesn't include DIMM devices added with -device /
   (or after reboot devices added with device_add)
 - Windows 2008 remembers DIMM configuration, so if DIMM with other
   addr/size is added into the same slot, it refuses to use it insisting
   on old mapping.

QEMU git tree for testing is available at:
  https://github.com/imammedo/qemu/commits/memory-hotplug-v10

Example QEMU cmd line:
  qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -monitor unix:/tmp/mon,server,nowait \ 
     -m 4096,slots=4,maxmem=8G guest.img

PS:
  Windows guest requires SRAT table for hotplug to work so add an extra option:
   -numa node
  to QEMU command line.
