The q35 machine type currently lets the guest firmware select a 1MB, 2MB
or 8MB TSEG (basically, SMRAM) size. In edk2/OVMF, we use 8MB, but even
that is not enough when a lot of VCPUs (more than approx. 224) are
configured -- SMRAM footprint scales largely proportionally with VCPU
count.
Introduce a new property for "mch" called "extended-tseg-mbytes", which
expresses (in megabytes) the user's choice of TSEG (SMRAM) size.
Invent a new, QEMU-specific register in the config space of the DRAM
Controller, at offset 0x50, in order to allow guest firmware to query the
TSEG (SMRAM) size.
According to Intel Document Number 316966-002, Table 5-1 "DRAM Controller
Register Address Map (D0:F0)":
Warning: Address locations that are not listed are considered Intel
Reserved registers locations. Reads to Reserved registers may
return non-zero values. Writes to reserved locations may
cause system failures.
All registers that are defined in the PCI 2.3 specification,
but are not necessary or implemented in this component are
simply not included in this document. The
reserved/unimplemented space in the PCI configuration header
space is not documented as such in this summary.
Offsets 0x50 and 0x51 are not listed in Table 5-1. They are also not part
of the standard PCI config space header. And they precede the capability
list as well, which starts at 0xe0 for this device.
When the guest writes value 0xffff to this register, the value that can be
read back is that of "mch.extended-tseg-mbytes" -- unless it remains
0xffff. The guest is required to write 0xffff first (as opposed to a
read-only register) because PCI config space is generally not cleared on
QEMU reset, and after S3 resume or reboot, new guest firmware running on
old QEMU could read a guest OS-injected value from this register.
After reading the available "extended" TSEG size, the guest firmware may
actually request that TSEG size by writing pattern 11b to the ESMRAMC
register's TSEG_SZ bit-field. (The Intel spec referenced above defines
only patterns 00b (1MB), 01b (2MB) and 10b (8MB); 11b is reserved.)
On the QEMU command line, the value can be set with
-global mch.extended-tseg-mbytes=N
The default value for 2.10+ q35 machine types is 16. The value is limited
to 0xfff (4095) at the moment, purely so that the product (4095 MB) can be
stored to the uint32_t variable "tseg_size" in mch_update_smram(). Users
are responsible for choosing sensible TSEG sizes.
On 2.9 and earlier q35 machine types, the default value is 0. This lets
the 11b bit pattern in ESMRAMC.TSEG_SZ, and the register at offset 0x50,
keep their original behavior.
When "extended-tseg-mbytes" is nonzero, the new register at offset 0x50 is
set to that value on reset, for completeness.
PCI config space is migrated automatically, so no VMSD changes are
necessary.
