Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: use simple waitqueue for vcpu->wq
From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@...hat.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 382, respectively 300 times:
./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 which I consider a good sign:

tree. Daniel ported it to mainline's version and gathered the
benchmark numbers for tscdeadline_latency test.]
