virtio-crypto: wait ctrl queue instead of busy polling
Originally, after submitting request into virtio crypto control queue, the guest side polls the result from the virt queue. This works like following: CPU0 CPU1 ... CPUx CPUy | | | | \ \ / / \--------spin_lock(&vcrypto->ctrl_lock)-------/ | virtqueue add & kick | busy poll virtqueue | spin_unlock(&vcrypto->ctrl_lock) ... There are two problems: 1, The queue depth is always 1, the performance of a virtio crypto device gets limited. Multi user processes share a single control queue, and hit spin lock race from control queue. Test on Intel Platinum 8260, a single worker gets ~35K/s create/close session operations, and 8 workers get ~40K/s operations with 800% CPU utilization. 2, The control request is supposed to get handled immediately, but in the current implementation of QEMU(v6.2), the vCPU thread kicks another thread to do this work, the latency also gets unstable. Tracking latency of virtio_crypto_alg_akcipher_close_session in 5s: usecs : count distribution 0 -> 1 : 0 | | 2 -> 3 : 7 | | 4 -> 7 : 72 | | 8 -> 15 : 186485 |************************| 16 -> 31 : 687 | | 32 -> 63 : 5 | | 64 -> 127 : 3 | | 128 -> 255 : 1 | | 256 -> 511 : 0 | | 512 -> 1023 : 0 | | 1024 -> 2047 : 0 | | 2048 -> 4095 : 0 | | 4096 -> 8191 : 0 | | 8192 -> 16383 : 2 | | This means that a CPU may hold vcrypto->ctrl_lock as long as 8192~16383us. To improve the performance of control queue, a request on control queue waits completion instead of busy polling to reduce lock racing, and gets completed by control queue callback. CPU0 CPU1 ...
