Subject[PATCH RFC 0/8] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: add support for ECMDQ register mode
Date
SMMU v3.3 added a new feature, which is Enhanced Command queue interface
for reducing contention when submitting Commands to the SMMU, in this
patch set, ECMDQ is the abbreviation of Enhanced Command Queue.

When the hardware supports ECMDQ and each core can exclusively use one ECMDQ,
each core does not need to compete with other cores when using its own ECMDQ.
This means that each core can insert commands in parallel. If each ECMDQ can
execute commands in parallel, the overall performance may be better. However,
our hardware currently does not support multiple ECMDQ execute commands in
parallel.

In order to reuse existing code, I originally still call arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmdlist()
to insert commands. Even so, however, there was a performance improvement of nearly 12%
in strict mode.

The test environment is the EMU, which simulates the connection of the 200 Gbit/s NIC.
Number of queues: passthrough lazy strict(ECMDQ) strict(CMDQ)
6 188 180 162 145 --> 11.7% improvement
8 188 188 184 183 --> 0.55% improvement

In recent days, I implemented a new function without competition with other
cores to replace arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmdlist() when a core can have an ECMDQ.
I'm guessing it might get better performance results. Because the EMU is too
slow, it will take a while before the relevant data is available.


Zhen Lei (8):
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Use command queue batching helpers to improve
performance
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add and use static helper function
arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmd_with_sync()
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add and use static helper function
arm_smmu_get_cmdq()
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Extract reusable function
__arm_smmu_cmdq_skip_err()
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add support for ECMDQ register mode
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Ensure that a set of associated commands are
inserted in the same ECMDQ
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add arm_smmu_ecmdq_issue_cmdlist() for non-shared
ECMDQ
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add support for less than one ECMDQ per core
