[PATCH v2] iommu/virtio: Make instance lookup robust

by Robin Murphy

Much like arm-smmu in commit 7d835134d4e1 ("iommu/arm-smmu: Make instance lookup robust"), virtio-iommu appears to have the same issue where iommu_device_register() makes the IOMMU instance visible to other API callers (including itself) straight away, but internally the instance isn't ready to recognise itself for viommu_probe_device() to work correctly until after viommu_probe() has returned. This matters a lot more now that bus_iommu_probe() has the DT/VIOT knowledge to probe client devices the way that was always intended. Tweak the lookup and initialisation in much the same way as for arm-smmu, to ensure that what we register is functional and ready to go.

Namely, if the scheduler tick has been stopped already and predicted_ns is greater than the tick period length, the governor may return an idle state whose exit latency exceeds latency_req because that decision is made before checking the current idle state's exit latency. For instance, say that there are 3 idle states, 0, 1, and 2. For idle states 0 and 1, the exit latency is equal to the target residency and the values are 0 and 5 us, respectively. State 2 is deeper and has the exit latency and target residency of 200 us and 2 ms (which is greater than the tick period length), respectively. Say that predicted_ns is equal to TICK_NSEC and the PM QoS latency limit is 20 us. After the first two iterations of the main loop in menu_select(), idx becomes 1 and in the third iteration of it the target residency of the current state (state 2) is greater than predicted_ns. State 2 is not a polling one and predicted_ns is not less than TICK_NSEC, so the check on whether or not the tick has been stopped is done. Say that the tick has been stopped already and there are no imminent timers (that is, delta_tick is greater than the target residency of state 2). In that case, idx becomes 2 and it is returned immediately, but the exit latency of state 2 exceeds the latency limit. Address this issue by modifying the code to compare the exit latency of the current idle state (idle state i) with the latency limit before comparing its target residency with predicted_ns, which allows one more exit_latency_ns check that becomes redundant to be dropped. However, after the above change, latency_req cannot take the predicted_ns value any more, which takes place after commit 38f83090f515 ("cpuidle: menu: Remove iowait influence"), because it may cause a polling state to be returned prematurely. In the context of the previous example say that predicted_ns is 3000 and the PM QoS latency limit is still 20 us. Additionally, say that idle state 0 is a polling one. Moving the exit_latency_ns check before the target_residency_ns one causes the loop to terminate in the second iteration, before the target_residency_ns check, so idle state 0 will be returned even though previously state 1 would be returned if there were no imminent timers. For this reason, remove the assignment of the predicted_ns value to latency_req from the code.

State 2 is not a polling one and predicted_ns is not less than TICK_NSEC, so the check on whether or not the tick has been stopped is done. Say that the tick has been stopped already and there are no imminent timers (that is, delta_tick is greater than the target residency of state 2). In that case, idx becomes 2 and it is returned immediately, but the exit latency of state 2 exceeds the latency limit. Address this issue by modifying the code to compare the exit latency of the current idle state (idle state i) with the latency limit before comparing its target residency with predicted_ns, which allows one more exit_latency_ns check that becomes redundant to be dropped. However, after the above change, latency_req cannot take the predicted_ns value any more, which takes place after commit 38f83090f515 ("cpuidle: menu: Remove iowait influence"), because it may cause a polling state to be returned prematurely. In the context of the previous example say that predicted_ns is 3000 and the PM QoS latency limit is still 20 us. Additionally, say that idle state 0 is a polling one. Moving the exit_latency_ns check before the target_residency_ns one causes the loop to terminate in the second iteration, before the target_residency_ns check, so idle state 0 will be returned even though previously state 1 would be returned if there were no imminent timers. For this reason, remove the assignment of the predicted_ns value to latency_req from the code.

Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki(a)intel.com> Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2025 12:25:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: governors: menu: Avoid selecting states with too much latency Occasionally, the exit latency of the idle state selected by the menu governor may exceed the PM QoS CPU wakeup latency limit. Namely, if the scheduler tick has been stopped already and predicted_ns is greater than the tick period length, the governor may return an idle state whose exit latency exceeds latency_req because that decision is made before checking the current idle state's exit latency. For instance, say that there are 3 idle states, 0, 1, and 2. For idle states 0 and 1, the exit latency is equal to the target residency and the values are 0 and 5 us, respectively. State 2 is deeper and has the exit latency and target residency of 200 us and 2 ms (which is greater than the tick period length), respectively. Say that predicted_ns is equal to TICK_NSEC and the PM QoS latency limit is 20 us. After the first two iterations of the main loop in menu_select(), idx becomes 1 and in the third iteration of it the target residency of the current state (state 2) is greater than predicted_ns. State 2 is not a polling one and predicted_ns is not less than TICK_NSEC, so the check on whether or not the tick has been stopped is done. Say that the tick has been stopped already and there are no imminent timers (that is, delta_tick is greater than the target residency of state 2). In that case, idx becomes 2 and it is returned immediately, but the exit latency of state 2 exceeds the latency limit. Address this issue by modifying the code to compare the exit latency of the current idle state (idle state i) with the latency limit before comparing its target residency with predicted_ns, which allows one more exit_latency_ns check that becomes redundant to be dropped.
