SR-IOV

SR-IOV（Single Root I/O Virtualization）是一个将PCIe共享给虚拟机的标准，通过为虚拟机提供独立的内存空间、中断、DMA流，来绕过VMM实现数据访问。SR-IOV基于两种PCIe functions：

  • PF (Physical Function)： 包含完整的PCIe功能，包括SR-IOV的扩张能力，该功能用于SR-IOV的配置和管理。
  • FV (Virtual Function)： 包含轻量级的PCIe功能。每一个VF有它自己独享的PCI配置区域，并且可能与其他VF共享着同一个物理资源

SR-IOV要求

  • CPU 必须支持IOMMU（比如英特尔的VT-d 或者AMD的 AMD-Vi，Power8 处理器默认支持IOMMU）
  • 固件Firmware 必须支持IOMMU
  • CPU 根桥必须支持 ACS 或者ACS等价特性
  • PCIe 设备必须支持ACS 或者ACS等价特性
  • 建议根桥和PCIe 设备中间的所有PCIe 交换设备都支持ACS，如果某个PCIe交换设备不支持ACS，其后的所有PCIe设备只能共享某个IOMMU 组，所以只能分配给1台虚机。

SR-IOV使用示例

开启VF：

modprobe -r igb
modprobe igb max_vfs=7
echo "options igb max_vfs=7" >>/etc/modprobe.d/igb.conf

通过libvirt绑定到虚拟机

$ cat >/tmp/interface.xml <<EOF
<interface type='hostdev' managed='yes'>
     <source>
       <address type='pci' domain='0' bus='11' slot='16' function='0'/>
     </source>
</interface>
EOF
$ virsh attach-device MyGuest /tmp/interface. xml --live --config

当然也可以给网卡配置MAC地址和VLAN：

<interface type='hostdev' managed='yes'>
     <source>
       <address type='pci' domain='0' bus='11' slot='16' function='0'/>
     </source>
     <mac address='52:54:00:6d:90:02'>
     <vlan>
        <tag id='42'/>
     </vlan>
     <virtualport type='802.1Qbh'>
       <parameters profileid='finance'/>
     </virtualport>
   </interface>

通过Qemu绑定到虚拟机

/usr/bin/qemu-kvm -name vdisk -enable-kvm -m 512 -smp 2 \
-hda /mnt/nfs/vdisk.img \
-monitor stdio \
-vnc 0.0.0.0:0 \
-device pci-assign,host=0b:00.0

优缺点

Pros:

  • More Scalable than Direct Assign
  • Security through IOMMU and function isolation
  • Control Plane separation through PF/VF notion
  • High packet rate, Low CPU, Low latency thanks to Direct Pass through

Cons:

  • Rigid: Composability issues
  • Control plane is pass through, puts pressure on Hardware resources
  • Parts of the PCIe config space are direct map from Hardware
  • Limited scalability (16 bit)
  • SR-IOV NIC forces switching features into the HW
  • All the Switching Features in the Hardware or nothing
