The following patches add two DPDK sample applications and an alternate implementation of librte_power for use in virtualized environments. The idea is to provide librte_power functionality from within a VM to address the lack of MSRs to facilitate frequency changes from within a VM. It is ideally suited for Haswell which provides per core frequency scaling. The current librte_power affects frequency changes via the acpi-cpufreq 'userspace' power governor, accessed via sysfs. General Overview:(more information in each patch that follows). The VM Power Management solution provides two components: 1)VM: Allows for the a DPDK application in a VM to reuse the librte_power interface. Each lcore opens a Virto-Serial endpoint channel to the host, where the re-implementation of librte_power simply forwards the requests for frequency change to a host based monitor. The host monitor itself uses librte_power. Each lcore channel corresponds to a serial device '/dev/virtio-ports/virtio.serial.port.poweragent.' which is opened in non-blocking mode. While each Virtual CPU can be mapped to multiple physical CPUs it is recommended that each vCPU should be mapped to a single core only. 2)Host: The host monitor is managed by a CLI, it allows for adding qemu/KVM virtual machines and associated channels to the monitor, manually changing CPU frequency, inspecting the state of VMs, vCPU to pCPU pinning and managing channels. Host channel endpoints are Virto-Serial endpoints configured as AF_UNIX file sockets which follow a specific naming convention i.e /tmp/powermonitor/., each channel has an 1:1 mapping to a VM endpoint i.e. /dev/virtio-ports/virtio.serial.port.poweragent. Host channel endpoints are opened in non-blocking mode and are monitored via epoll. Requests over each channel to change frequency are forwarded to the original librte_power. Channels must be manually configured as qemu-kvm command line arguments or libvirt domain definition(xml) e.g.
Where multiple channels can be configured by specifying multiple elements, by replacing , . (port number) should be incremented by 1 for each new channel element. More information on Virtio-Serial can be found here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/VirtioSerial To enable the Hypervisor creation of channels, the host endpoint directory must be created with qemu permissions: mkdir /tmp/powermonitor chown qemu:qemu /tmp/powermonitor The host application runs on two separate lcores: Core N) CLI: For management of Virtual Machines adding channels to Monitor thread, inspecting state and manually setting CPU frequency [PATCH 02/09] Core N+1) Monitor Thread: An epoll based infinite loop that waits on channel events from VMs and calls the corresponding librte_power functions. A sample application is also provided to run on Virtual Machines, this application provides a CLI to manually set the frequency of a vCPU[PATCH 08/09] The current l3fwd-power sample application can also be run on a VM. Changes in V5: Fixed default target in sample app Makefiles Changes in V4: Fixed double free of channel during VM shutdown. Changes in V3: Fixed crash in Guest CLI when host application is not running. Renamed #defines to be more specific to the module they belong Added vCPU pinning via CLI Changes in V2: Runtime selection of librte_power implementations. Updated Unit tests to cover librte_power changes. PATCH[0/3] was sent twice, again as PATCH[0/4] Miscellaneous fixes. Alan Carew (10): Channel Manager and Monitor for VM Power Management(Host).
