HPA Huge Pages Policy Example

memoryPageSize

hugePages

virtual_memory#vdu_memory_requirements#memoryPageSize

hw:mem_page_size

values can be ANY, 4KB, 2MB, 1GB

How to handle large, small, any from openstack?

if the hw:mem_page_size is an integer it is assumed the unit is in KB

The deafult value for small page is 4k, for large page is 2M or 1G(recommended value 2M), for any page, libvirt will firstly to try to find large pages, if failed then will fall back to small pages. so it's suggest do not support  any page in current release version

  1. I am working on “HPA CPU Pinning".

  2. hello, RItu,

                  for the instructionSetExtensions (HPA CPU Instruction Set Extensions Policy Example), its name differs with that defined in TOSCA modelling Supported HPA Capability Requirements(DRAFT), whose name is instructionSetRequirements.


                   


  3. Hi Ritu Sood

    A few items we need to review:

    1. dataProcessingAccelerationLibrary

    Because the "dataProcessingAccelerationLibrary" is a library (software), it is not a hardware capability.   Therefore ovsDpdk shouldn't be specified as an hpaFeature requirement.

    2. cpuInstructionSetExtensions

    cpuInstructionSetExtensions are available for most hardware (cpu) architectures. To account for this, we should use a "generic" hardwareArchitecture and add a prefix to the extensions. OpenStack has faced this problem (os-traits) and they have come up with prefixes. What do think about adopting the similar prefixes (e.g. HW_CPU_X86_SGX)?

    3. sgx

    sgx is a vendor-specific instruction set extension, shouldn't it treated as such. See item 2 above.


    1. Ritu and all are very busy in finishing up the coding for HPA and let me try to address the questions.

      On OVSDPDK being a software feature :  HPA is new name for EPA.  H was one of the problems I had, but I was told that we had to move on to avoid time in deciding  the name.  All VMM platform capabilities (software or hardware or firmware) are represented as part of HPA.  For all practical purposes, you can imagine this as EPA.


      On cpuInstructionSetExtensions :  That is one option you suggested.  But for uniform sake with respect to other HPA capabilities,  we just want to keep that uniform method.


      On Sgx:  SGX is much more than just instruction set extension.  Enclave memory size and public key hash are also part of SGX capabilities. Hence, it is made as separate HPA capability.


  4. Hi Alex(Alexander Vul) and Ritu(Ritu Sood), I found there's a another page in the wiki which also displays the HPA schema(Policy Specification and Retrieval for OOF). However, the schema for the hpa capability 'pciePassthrough' is different from here. And i'm worried about that if the policy team creates policies according to that schema, there will be a mismatch inside OOF. So which page should we refer to ?

    Thanks.

  5. Hi Haibin(Huang Haibin), for the new feature 'sriovNICNetwork',  do we still need the hpa-attribute 'pci-count' ?

    1. Yes, I think we need "pci-count".

  6. Yes. It should have pci-count also.


    Also, from openstack perspective, we expect following syntax:

    We argree that it will not be host aggregate after quite a bit of discussion before.

    It would be of the form: pci_passthrough:alias=ALIAS:COUNT

    Where ALIAS is of form: sriov-device-<name>-<Vendor ID>-<Device ID>-<providernet>

    For example: pci_passthrough:alias=sriov-device-intelnic-1234-5678-physnet1:2

    1. Thanks Srini.
