Commit d0fcc38f "vhost: improve device readiness notifications"
needs at least 2 vrings before changing the device state to
ready, this is fine for NET device but not correct for BLK
device.

The number of vring required should be based on the device
type, e.g. virtio_scsi device needs at least 3 vrings, and
virtio_net needs at least 2 vrings, virtio_blk needs at least
1 vring. So instead of doing it in vhost library it's better
that the application who uses this library do this check.

I think it would be better to rely on VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET to
know whether it should wait for 1 or 2 queues to determine if ready.

virtio_scsi needs at least 3 vrings, so both 1 and 2 can't work for virtio_scsi device.
Can we expose an API to let the caller to set the minimum number of vrings required by
virtio device?

OK, thanks for pointing this out, I missed it.

I'm not in favor of introducing an new API for this.
I propose to restrict change introduced in commit d0fcc38f to the
builtin net backend. Can you have a try with below patch?

Thanks in advance,
Maxime

Hi Maxime,

The code you wrote still need to check nr_vring is 0 or not, see the extra 2 lines added below, then it can work with my tests for now, could you submit a patch to DPDK to apply the patch? Thanks.

BTW, dpdk vhost library still has an issue, it's not related with commit d0fcc38f, the Guest driver may only kick 1 vring even it sends NUM_QUEUES with a bigger value,
this is quite common in seabios, e.g: virtio_blk will only use 1 vring in seabios, this means the backend will never get started in BIOS.

Thanks! You are right.

I'll send the patch now including your fix.

If I understand correctly, this is not a regression but has always been
here?

We should work on fixing it anyway, but I'm not sure to have the time
for v20.11.0. It would be great if you could provide steps to reproduce
it. Maybe file a bug in DPDK tracker?

Thanks,
Maxime

Yes, I just found that recently, it already exists for a while.

No hurries , I can submit an issue tracker, it doesn't affect NET device and most of the storage scenarios.

Hi Maxime,

Vhost-crypto has exactly the same issue. Changpeng's patch fixed it.
Could you give me a shout when your patch is out, so I can have a test?

Fan

Hi Fan,

The patch is already merged in main branch:

commit 09424c3f74311555c33d3d4cdc2ca3654ce13b1c
Author: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>
Date:   Wed Sep 23 11:49:02 2020 +0200

    vhost: fix external backends readiness

    Commit d0fcc38f5fa4 ("vhost: improve device readiness notifications")
    makes the assumption that every Virtio devices are considered
    ready for preocessing as soon as first queue pair is configured
    and enabled.

    While this is true for Virtio-net, it isn't for Virtio-scsi
    and Virtio-blk.

    This patch fixes this by only making this assumption for
    the builtin Virtio-net backend, and restores back to previous
    behaviour for other backends.

    Fixes: d0fcc38f5fa4 ("vhost: improve device readiness notifications")

Hi Maxime,

Thanks for telling me that but vhost_crypto is still breaking.

Virtio-crypto (both LKCF virtio-crypt driver and DPDK virtio-crypto PMD) won't create device queue until the crypto session is required to be created. Thus vq_is_ready() will never return true during initialization - hence new_device() in vhost_crypto sample app will never be triggered. Also since rte_vhost_driver_set_features() is called inside rte_vhost_crypto_create(), which is triggered by new_device() handler, we cannot update the dev->flags to bypass the "if (dev->flags & VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET)" check before new_device() is called.
what the new logic virtio_is_ready() requirement will never meet for vhost_crypto.

A way to fix it is with the following change - 

diff --git a/lib/librte_vhost/vhost_user.c b/lib/librte_vhost/vhost_user.c
index b00e1f91d..e5263a360 100644
--- a/lib/librte_vhost/vhost_user.c
+++ b/lib/librte_vhost/vhost_user.c
@@ -1937,6 +1937,14 @@ vhost_user_set_vring_kick(struct virtio_net **pdev, struct VhostUserMsg *msg,
                }
        }
 
+       /* virtio-crypto vq is not ready until session is created. Check
+        * here if we need to initialize device again
+        */
+       if (!(dev->flags & VIRTIO_DEV_RUNNING)) {
+               if (dev->notify_ops->new_device(dev->vid) == 0)
+                       dev->flags |= VIRTIO_DEV_RUNNING;
+       }
+
        return RTE_VHOST_MSG_RESULT_OK;
 }

but I cannot add virtio_is_ready() inside the " if (!(dev->flags & VIRTIO_DEV_RUNNING))" check, since we need new_device() is called to set the feature flags - if to set the feature flags in the example instead, the logic will not right, since virtio-net does not require the user to set the flags themselves either.

Regards,
Fan

Hi Fan & Maxime,

I am thinking that should we move set_features outside of new_device callback
for crypto device? I see that net and blk devices both set features between register
and start, and personally I think this makes sense that device features are set
before device start and ready. How do you think 😊?

Thanks,
Chenbo

Indeed, we cannot consider the device to be ready (and so call
.new_device callback) if features haven't been negotiated.

I agree, rte_vhost_driver_set_features() has to be called before
.new_device(), and that's the reason why it takes socket's path and not
vid as input.

The reason it is set inside rte_vhost_crypto_create() is logically speaking
the user shouldn't expect to have to set the feature flags even after the create
function is called - and what I know in the application the only way to know the
vid for the first time is when new_device() is invoked. So if there is away to know
the vid before new_device() is invoked I am happy to change the sample app.

Different than vhost_blk, vhost_crypto lies in the library and needs to be
able to be treated evenly as virtio_net. Without the new_device() calling
rte_vhost_crypto_create() the feature flag cannot be set. Without setting
the feature flag the device is always treated as virtio_net device, hence it

I think the Vhost-crypto API should be fixed.
The good news is that it is still experimental, so we can fix it without
worries (BTW, except the DPDK example, are there other application using
the Vhost-crypto API?).

The .new_device() callback is called when the Virtio device is ready,
meaning when the backend can start processing the virtqueues. So feature
negotiation should have taken place before that.

I'm surprised it worked before, because doesn't the features negotiation
takes place before the memory table are set? If so, how can the first
virtqueue can be tested as ready if the vring address is not set?

One other issue here, which is triggering the issue is that given how
the registration is done, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET flag is set for
Vhost-crypto, which shouldn't happen. Even before last release rework,
you should have faced issues when more than 2 queues where in used:

static int
vhost_user_set_features(struct virtio_net **pdev, struct VhostUserMsg *msg,
			int main_fd __rte_unused)
{
...
	if ((dev->flags & VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET) &&
	    !(dev->features & (1ULL << VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ))) {
		/*
		 * Remove all but first queue pair if MQ hasn't been
		 * negotiated. This is safe because the device is not
		 * running at this stage.
		 */
		while (dev->nr_vring > 2) {
			struct vhost_virtqueue *vq;

			vq = dev->virtqueue[--dev->nr_vring];
			if (!vq)
				continue;

			dev->virtqueue[dev->nr_vring] = NULL;
			cleanup_vq(vq, 1);
			cleanup_vq_inflight(dev, vq);
			free_vq(dev, vq);
		}
	}

As VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ is never negotiated with crypto devices, it means you
can not have more than two queues.

OK, so we are aligned, we need to find a proper solution. I think you
need a specific driver start function that does not set
VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET.

First we can change that VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET flag  by a new
field in the device without breaking the API:

enum virtio_backend_type {
	VIRTIO_DEV_UNKNOWN = 0, /* Likely external */
 	VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_NET,
	VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_CRYPTO,
};

struct virtio_net {
...
	enum virtio_backend_type type;
};


Then, introduce a new API to start crypto backend that would be called
instead of rte_vhost_driver_start():

int
rte_vhost_crypto_driver_start(const char *path)
{

	return vhost_driver_start(path, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_CRYPTO);
}


int
rte_vhost_driver_start(const char *path)
{

	return vhost_driver_start(path, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_NET);
}

And then propagate the info down to vhost_new_device().

Does that make sense?

Note that issue has been reported during v20.11 cycle was it was
introduced in v20.08. It means it has not been tested. Does Intel QE has
some Vhost crypto tests?

Maxime

Vhost-crypto was not working since 20.05. Changpeng's patch which set the
Number of queues to one made it working again so we waited it merged.
However the patch was rejected by you.

I suppose there is another way - adding a new API called
"rte_vhost_crypto_set_feature(const char *socket)" so we don't have to
rely on rte_vhost_crypto_create() to set the feature flags

what do you think?

But the patch introducing the regression was introduced in v20.08, I'm
confused.

Indeed, I rejected the patch because it would break net backends.

The set_features thing is just another problem. The main problem is that
VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET gets set for crypto backend, which does
not make sense.

I proposed a fix below to be able to differentiate between builtin net
and crypto backends below, but I think you missed it. Please check
below.

Note that it does not fix the set_feature thing, which would also need
to be fixed. But it should revert the behaviour for crypto backends back
to pre-v20.08, as Changpeng patch did.

Hi Maxime,

Yes I totally missed. Sorry about that.
Will try this way. Should work. Thanks a lot.
