Enable resource UUID feature and implement command resource assign UUID.
This is done by introducing a hash table to map resource IDs to their
UUIDs.

The hash table does not seem to be stored during migration.

virglrenderer thinks the resource is alive in such a situation.

This initialization is unnecessary.

Isn't g->resource_uuids always non-NULL?

May I know whether you point g->resource_uuids table data in VirtIOGPU
device should be stored in virtio_gpu_save() and resumed in
virtio_gpu_load() for virtio migration?

Yes, so we can move the resource allocation in front of below virglrenderer
resource creation.

virgl_renderer_resource_create(&args, NULL, 0);

Yes, right. The if check should be superfluous. Will remove it.

Hi Antonio,

If I'm not mistaken, this patch is related with:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2023-09/msg01853.html
IMHO, ideally, virtio-gpu and vhost-user-gpu both, would use the
infrastructure from the patch I linked to store the
virtio objects, so that they can be later shared with other devices.

Which, in terms of code, would mean changing:
g_hash_table_insert(g->resource_uuids,
GUINT_TO_POINTER(assign.resource_id), uuid);
by:
virtio_add_dmabuf(uuid, assign.resource_id);

...and simplify part of the infrastructure.

Let me know what you think.

Regard,
Albert

I don't think such sharing is possible because the resources are 
identified by IDs that are local to the device. That also complicates 
migration.

As far as I understand, the feature to export dma-bufs from the
virtgpu was introduced as part of the virtio cross-device sharing
proposal [1]. Thus, it shall be posible. When virtgpu ASSING_UUID,
it exports and identifies the dmabuf resource, so that when the dmabuf gets
shared inside the guest (e.g., with virtio-video), we can use the assigned
UUID to find the dmabuf in the host (using the patch that I linked above),
and import it.

The problem is that virtio-gpu can have other kind of resources like 
pixman and OpenGL textures and manage them and DMA-BUFs with unified 
resource ID.

So you cannot change:
g_hash_table_insert(g->resource_uuids, 
GUINT_TO_POINTER(assign.resource_id), uuid);
by:
virtio_add_dmabuf(uuid, assign.resource_id);

assign.resource_id is not DMA-BUF file descriptor, and the underlying 
resource my not be DMA-BUF at first place.

Also, since this lives in the common code that is not used only by 
virtio-gpu-gl but also virtio-gpu, which supports migration, we also 
need to take care of that. It is not a problem for DMA-BUF as DMA-BUF is 
not migratable anyway, but the situation is different in this case.

Implementing cross-device sharing is certainly a possibility, but that 
requires more than dealing with DMA-BUFs.

I didn't really look into the patch in-depth, so the code was intended
to give an idea of how the implementation would look like with
the cross-device patch API. Indeed, it is not the resource_id,
(I just took a brief look at the virtio specificacion 1.2), but the
underlying
resource what we want to use here.

So, if I understood correctly, dmabufs are just a subset of the resources
that the gpu manages, or can assign UUIDs to. I am not sure why
the virt gpu driver would want to send a ASSIGN_UUID for anything
that is not a dmabuf (are we sure it does?), but I am not super familiarized
with virtgpu to begin with.
But I see that internally, the GPU specs relate a UUID with a resource_id,
so we still need both tables:
- one to relate UUID with resource_id to be able to locate the underlying
resource
- the table that holds the dmabuf with the UUID for cross-device sharing

With that in mind, sounds to me that the support for cross-device sharing
could
be added on top of this patch, once
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2023-09/msg01850.html
lands.

I hope that makes sense.

In my understanding, an resource will be first created as OpenGL or 
Vulkan textures and then exported as a DMA-BUF file descriptor. For 
these resource types exporting/importing code is mandatory.

For pixman buffers (i.e., non-virgl device), I don't see a compelling 
reason to have cross-device sharing. It is possible to omit resource 
UUID feature from non-virgl device to avoid implementing complicated 
migration.

That is possible, but I think it's better to implement cross-device 
sharing at the same time introducing virtio-dmabuf.

The current design of virtio-dmabuf looks somewhat inconsistent; it's 
named "dmabuf", but internally the UUIDs are stored into something named 
"resource_uuids" and it has SharedObjectType so it's more like a generic 
resource sharing mechanism. If you actually have an implementation of 
cross-device sharing using virtio-dmabuf, it will be clear what kind of 
feature is truly necessary.

I see, thanks for the clarification.
I would assume you could avoid the UUID feature for those resources, but
I will need to check the driver implementation. It is worth checking
though, if
that would simplify the implementation.

Yeah, the file was named as virtio-dmabuf following the kernel
implementation. Also, because for the moment it only aims to share
dmabufs. However, virtio specs leave the virtio object defintion vague [1]
(I guess purposely). It is up to the specific devices to define what an
object
means for them. So the implementation tries to follow that, and
leave the contents of the table generic. The table can hold any kind of
object,
and the API exposes type-specific functions (for dmabufs, or others).

Also, to clarify what I stated here:
I am not trying to get your patch blocked until the other one lands.
I think both could be integrated in parallel, and then have virtgpu
use the cross-device sharing API on top of your patch.

In the guest kernel, the name "virtio_dma_buf" represents the interface 
between the *guest* kernel and *guest* user-space. It makes sense since 
the cross-device resource sharing is managed by the userspace and 
DMA-BUF is the only interface between them for this purpose.

The situation is different for QEMU; QEMU interacts with backends using 
backend-specific interfaces (OpenGL/pixman) and virgl is capable to 
export textures as DMA-BUF. DMA-BUF is not universal in this sense. As 
such, we cannot just borrow the kernel-side naming but invent one.

virtio-gpu (and vhost-user-gpu) will use this feature only with virgl, that
is
fine, and transversal to the object-sharing mechanism. It allows
to share dmabufs in the host following how they are shared in the guest.
The virtgpu driver may call ASSIGN_UUID for other types of resources (not
sure,
but could be), but they will never be shared with other virtio devices.
So they are not too relevant. Also, the shared objects table could
potentially
be accessed from any virtio device, not only virtio-gpu or virtio-video.

What I am trying to say, is that the name focuses solely in its current
usage,
i.e., sharing dmabufs between virtio-gpu (as exporter), and virtio-video
(as importer).
If it grows to something more, imo it can be renamed later.

The virtgpu driver will call ASSIGN_UUID for resources that are backed 
with pixman buffer. What is used as the backing store for resources is 
an implementation detail of VMM and the guest cannot know it. For the 
guest, they are same kind of resources (2D images).
