Subject[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: Boosting vCPUs that are delivering interrupts
Date
From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com>

Inspired by commit 9cac38dd5d (KVM/s390: Set preempted flag during vcpu wakeup
and interrupt delivery), except the lock holder, we want to also boost vCPUs
that are delivering interrupts. Actually most smp_call_function_many calls are
synchronous ipi calls, the ipi target vCPUs are also good yield candidates.
This patch introduces vcpu->ready to boost vCPUs during wakeup and interrupt
delivery time.

Testing on 80 HT 2 socket Xeon Skylake server, with 80 vCPUs VM 80GB RAM:
ebizzy -M

vanilla boosting improved
1VM 21443 23520 9%
2VM 2800 8000 180%
3VM 1800 3100 72%

Testing on my Haswell desktop 8 HT, with 8 vCPUs VM 8GB RAM, two VMs,
one running ebizzy -M, the other running 'stress --cpu 2':

w/ boosting + w/o pv sched yield(vanilla)

vanilla boosting improved
1570 4000 155%

w/ boosting + w/ pv sched yield(vanilla)

vanilla boosting improved
1844 5157 179%

w/o boosting, perf top in VM:

72.33% [kernel] [k] smp_call_function_many
4.22% [kernel] [k] call_function_i
3.71% [kernel] [k] async_page_fault

w/ boosting, perf top in VM:

38.43% [kernel] [k] smp_call_function_many
6.31% [kernel] [k] async_page_fault
6.13% libc-2.23.so [.] __memcpy_avx_unaligned
4.88% [kernel] [k] call_function_interrupt
