Tree is here: https://github.com/xzpeter/qemu/tree/preempt-full RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220829165659.96046-1-pet...@redhat.com v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220920225106.48451-1-pet...@redhat.com This patchset is v2 version of preempt-full series. v2 changelog: - Add r-bs - Rename release_lock to preempt_active [Dave] - Create MigrationAtomicStats structure, maintaining the 4 stats fields that may need atomic access since they'll be accessed by multiple threads. define them with Stat64. Add rich comment. [Dave] - One more patch added (patch 1) to fix another deadlock; not easy to reproduce but actually quite obvious.. The existing preempt code has reduced ramdom page req latency over 10Gbps network from ~12ms to ~500us which has already landed. This preempt-full series can further reduces that ~500us to ~230us per my initial test. Note that no new capability is needed, IOW it's fully compatible with the existing preempt mode. So the naming is actually not important but just to identify the difference on the binaries. The logic of the series is simple: send urgent pages in rp-return thread rather than migration thread. It also means rp-thread will take over the ownership of the newly created preempt channel. It can slow down rp-return thread on receiving page requests, but I don't really see a major issue with it so far but only benefits. For detailed performance numbers, please refer to the rfc cover letter. Please have a look, thanks.
