[PATCH 4/5] arm64: mm: Support ASID isolation feature

After a rollover, the global generation will be flushed, which will
cause the process mm->context.id on all CPUs do not match the
generation. Thus, the process will compete for the global spinlock lock
to reallocate a new ASID and refresh the TLBs of all CPUs on context
switch. This will lead to the increase of scheduling delay and TLB miss.
In some delay-sensitive scenarios, for example, part of CPUs are
isolated, only a limited number of processes are deployed to run on the
isolated CPUs. In this case, we do not want these key processes to be
affected by the rollover of ASID.
An ASID isolation method can reduce interference. We divide the
asid_generation into different domains, for example, HOUSEKEEPING and
ISOLATION. Processes in different domains allocate ASID from the shared
asid_map pool, then combine with the generation of local domain as the
mm->context.id. After an ASID rollover, the generation of the
HOUSEKEEPING domain can be flushed independently, and only the TLB of
HOUSEKEEPING domain CPUs will be flushed, so the processes of ISOLATION
domain will not be affected.
In addition, the ASID of the ISOLATION domain is stored in the
isolated_asid bitmap. When the asid_map is refreshed, the isolated_asid
must be copied to the asid_map to ensure that the ASID of the ISOLATION
domain is not allocated by other processes.
The following figure shows the example:
HOUSEKEEPING (genid: G1) ISOLATION (genid: G2)
task1(G1,1) task2(G2,2) task3(G2,3)
cpu0 cpu1 cpu3 cpu4 cpu5
------------------------- -----------------------
\ / |
\ / isolated_asid: [2,3]
\ /
asid_map: [1,2,3,4,...,65536]
The task1 is running on the HOUSEKEEPING domain, it allocate ASID 1 from
shared asid_map, so the context id of task1 is (G1,1). The task2 and
task3 are running on the ISOLATION domain, they allocate ASID 2,3 from
shared asid_map, and store ASID 2,3 to isolated_asid. the context id of
task2 is (G2,2), and the context id of task3 is (G2,3). After a
rollover, the generation of HOUSEKEEPING doamin is flushed, for example,
it becomes to G3, then the context id of task1 is changed to (G3,1). In
this time, the generation of ISOLATION domain is not affected.
In some scenarios, a process has multiple threads, and different threads
run in different domains, or processes migrate between different domains.
But the process has only one context ID, there is a problem that how to
select generation in this case. The way we're thinking is, as long as
the process has run to ISOLATION doamin, select generation of ISOLATION
doamin.
For example:
HOUSEKEEPING (genid: G1) ISOLATION (genid: G2)
task1(G1,1) ====> task1(G2,1)
task2(G2,2) <==== task2(G2,2)
cpu0 cpu1 cpu3 cpu4 cpu5
------------------------- -----------------------
When task1 is migrated from HOUSEKEEPING domain to ISOLATION domain, the
generation G1 must be changed to G2, and save the ASID 1 to isolated_asid
bitmap. But when task2 is migrated from ISOLATION domain to HOUSEKEEPING
domain, it still use generation G2. In this way, we solve the problem
that which generation should be selected in the scenario of process
migration.
As mentioned before, the generation of different domains is different.
we divide the generation into two parts, the lowest bit is used as the
Flag bit to indicate the HOUSEKEEPING and ISOLATION domain, and the rest
bits are used as the Upper-generation. After a rollover, only the
Upper-generation is flushed, the Flag part does not change in the entire
life. This ensures that the genrentaion of different domains is different.
asid_generation |---------------------------|-|--------|
Upper-generation Flag
Finally, it is important to select which domain generation and TLBs are
flushed after a rollover. By default, only the HOUSEKEEPING domain is
selected. When the number of ASIDs in the ISOLATION domain exceeds the
max threshold, the ISOLATION domain is selected too.
By default, the ASID isolation feature is disabled, and a cmdline
parameter is provided to control whether the ASID isolation feature is
enabled.
