powerpc/pseries/vas: Migration suspend waits for no in-progress open windows
The hypervisor returns migration failure if all VAS windows are not closed. During pre-migration stage, vas_migration_handler() sets migration_in_progress flag and closes all windows from the list. The allocate VAS window routine checks the migration flag, setup the window and then add it to the list. So there is possibility of the migration handler missing the window that is still in the process of setup. t1: Allocate and open VAS t2: Migration event window lock vas_pseries_mutex If migration_in_progress set unlock vas_pseries_mutex return open window HCALL unlock vas_pseries_mutex Modify window HCALL lock vas_pseries_mutex setup window migration_in_progress=true Closes all windows from the list // May miss windows that are // not in the list unlock vas_pseries_mutex lock vas_pseries_mutex return if nr_closed_windows == 0 // No DLPAR CPU or migration add window to the list // Window will be added to the // list after the setup is completed unlock vas_pseries_mutex return unlock vas_pseries_mutex Close VAS window // due to DLPAR CPU or migration return -EBUSY This patch resolves the issue with the following steps: - Set the migration_in_progress flag without holding mutex. - Introduce nr_open_wins_progress counter in VAS capabilities struct - This counter tracks the number of open windows are still in progress - The allocate setup window thread closes windows if the migration is set and decrements nr_open_window_progress counter - The migration handler waits for no in-progress open windows. The code flow with the fix is as follows: t1: Allocate and open VAS t2: Migration event window lock vas_pseries_mutex If migration_in_progress set unlock vas_pseries_mutex return open window HCALL nr_open_wins_progress++ // Window opened, but not // added to the list yet unlock vas_pseries_mutex Modify window HCALL migration_in_progress=true setup window lock vas_pseries_mutex Closes all windows from the list While nr_open_wins_progress { unlock vas_pseries_mutex lock vas_pseries_mutex sleep if nr_closed_windows == 0 // Wait if any open window in or migration is not started // progress. The open window // No DLPAR CPU or migration // thread closes the window without add window to the list // adding to the list and return if nr_open_wins_progress-- // the migration is in progress. unlock vas_pseries_mutex return Close VAS window nr_open_wins_progress-- unlock vas_pseries_mutex return -EBUSY lock vas_pseries_mutex } unlock vas_pseries_mutex return Fixes: 37e6764895ef ("powerpc/pseries/vas: Add VAS migration handler") Signed-off-by: Haren Myneni <haren@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://msgid.link/20231125235104.3405008-1-haren@linux.ibm.com
