Subject: [PATCH v9 0/6] iommu/dma: s390 DMA API conversion and optimized
 IOTLB flushing

Hi All,

This patch series converts s390's PCI support from its platform specific DMA
API implementation in arch/s390/pci/pci_dma.c to the common DMA IOMMU layer.
The conversion itself is done in patches 3-4 with patch 2 providing the final
necessary IOMMU driver improvement to handle s390's special IOTLB flush
out-of-resource indication in virtualized environments. Patches 1-2 may be
applied independently. The conversion itself only touches the s390 IOMMU driver
and s390 arch code moving over remaining functions from the s390 DMA API
implementation. No changes to common code are necessary.

After patch 4 the basic conversion is done and on our partitioning machine
hypervisor LPAR performance matches or exceeds the existing code. When running
under z/VM or KVM however, performance plummets to about half of the existing
code due to a much higher rate of IOTLB flushes for unmapped pages. Due to the
hypervisors use of IOTLB flushes to synchronize their shadow tables these are
very expensive and minimizing them is key for regaining the performance loss.

To this end patches 5-6 add a new, single queue, IOTLB flushing scheme as
an alternative to the existing per-CPU flush queues. Introducing an alternative
scheme was also suggested by Robin Murphy[1]. In the previous RFC of this
conversion Robin suggested reusing more of the existing queuing logic which
I incorporated since v2. The single queue mode is introduced in patch
5 together with a new dma_iommu_options struct and tune_dma_iommu callback in
IOMMU ops which allows IOMMU drivers to switch to a single flush queue.

Then patch 6 enables variable queue sizes using power of 2 queue sizes and
shift/mask to keep performance as close to the existing code as possible. The
variable queue size and a variable timeout are added to the dma_iommu_options
struct and utilized by s390 in the z/VM and KVM guest cases. As it is
implemented in common code the single queue IOTLB flushing scheme can of course
be used by other platforms with expensive IOTLB flushes. Particularly
virtio-iommu may be a candidate.

In a previous version I verified that the new scheme does work on my x86_64
Ryzen workstation by locally modifying iommu_subsys_init() to default to the
single queue mode and verifying its use via "/sys/.../iommu_group/type". I did
not find problems with an AMD GPU, Intel NIC (with SR-IOV and KVM
pass-through), NVMes or any on board peripherals.

This code is also available in the b4/dma_iommu topic branch of my
git.kernel.org repository[3] with tags the version sent.

NOTE: Due to the large drop in performance I think we should not merge the DMA
API conversion (patch 4) until we have a more suited IOVA flushing scheme
with similar improvements as the proposed changes.

Best regards,
Niklas
