    https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/
    • available on the git but not on the webpage (Jan-Simon Moelleris checking)
    • it seems to related to broswer cache and Jan to check further. But for virtio documentation it became alive again. https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#0_Getting_Started/2_Building_AGL_Image/5_4_Virtio/

    • IVI-EG Leader: Nomoto-san riku.nomoto@woven-planet.global
      
• Follow-up of last workshop on VirtIO-gpu
  • Can VFIO on Intel be applicable to the zero-copy case?
    • Which address space are buffers in? Can we use IOMMU for that?
    • IOMMU is a must have to defeat against DMA attacks

    • Intel pioneered VFIO; Huawei did develop so called "warpdrive" technology → mainly for "server" hardware acceleration encryption & decryption (kind of passthrough but can be shared across different VMs)
      https://connect.linaro.org/resources/bkk19/bkk19-401/

    • Type 1 hypervisor can passtrhough device for guest VM easily. But driver need to be have in the front end guest. (will be dependent onto SoC platform)

    • 
      

      IOMMU should be able used but not used in the crosvm (instead, used host allocation). Coherent memory is needed.

    • Linaro Hiramatsu's comment: to share the memory between the guest, I think we need ivshmem like driver. (but that is not transparent)

    • 
      

      Info
      title Mail from Kenneth (Huawei)
      Hello, Jerry, Nice meeting you. We are happy to discuss UADK with colleagues of the same profession. We are just afraid that we cannot give what you need;).  Because it seems you are looking for VFIO rather than UADK. We tried to merge our requirement to VFIO initially. But we gave up after the first RFC. To us, the major down side of VFIO is that it is a practical device. But we don’t take it a device. We take it a heterogeneous CPU. In UADK, the process attach to the accelerator, the accelerator share whole or part of the address space of the process. So the process can deliver task to the accelerator without warrying how to copy data to the accelerator. So there is no independent device is created, no DNA operation is provided. It is just for sharing memory between CPU and the accelerator. Because of this, we solve different set of problem. E.g. we have to take care of process-cloning to duplicate/stop the interface to child process. But it seem you are looking for a solution to isolate some GPU resource for particular VM. This is exactly what VFIO trying to do. So now it is you who may want to tell me. Are you guys really want to know the detail of UADK? J Cheers

  3. Q: 
• (3m) Quick summary of F2F SAT
  - Cooperate with IVI-EG and IC-EG in SAT, especially
      - Define necessary devices for overall AGL (also find missing virtio frontends)
      - Define common device interface (take advantage of virtio driver I/F) for both virt and non-virt AGL
      - (Not discussed in SAT yet) port IVI and IC profile (from IVI-EG and IC-EG) on the top of virt-EG's work (maybe can have a collaborative demo in some events?) 
  - In to enhance cooperation with other EGs Jerry, Zhao Jiancong plans to join other EGs' call as an audience

    • Virt-EG member prepare the RFQ*
      * no specific format restriction. AGL manager Walt-san will share some samples in the past.
    • Virt-EG will review the RFQ (basically the leader (Jerry) decide yes or no)
    • Walt will send the RFQ to target company and request response for RFQ
    • Virt-EG will review the response and decide go or not.
    • If “GO”, Linux Foundation will have a contract with the target company based on the job described in the RFQ.
• Sharing on VirtIO-video and virtio-camera
  • No current implementation with QEMU open to the public with virtio-video but virtio-video is arleady working in crosvm (depends on if they will open source it or not)

Agenda: 

• ALS:  CFP ddl to be 19 Sep 2021 
  • Title: VirtIO - A common device framework to achieve Software Defined Vehicle
    

  • Abstract:
    Device virtualization has been a hot topic in the automotive world along with the increasing needs for ECU consolidation. VirtIO, one of the most mature para-virtualization frameworks, has been officially accepted as a common standard for device virtualization in AGL.
    In this session, we will introduce achievements of AGL virtualization expert group on extending VirtIO in AGL to better fit automotive needs and share our thoughts on future trends of Software Defined Vehicle empowered by VirtIO which abstracts SW from HW (ECU, desktop and even cloud). We will also be sharing some VirtIO related demos from the member companies.

  • Speakers

In this session, AGL Virtualization Expert Group and Container and Mesh Expert Group will jointly give a presentation on how AGL is approaching Software defined Vehicles, including defining the standard device virtualization framework “VirtIO” across automotive cloud & edge, and laying the groundwork for micro-service orchestration for on-board automotive systems.

      virtio-loopback is a virtio Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for non-virtualized environments drafted by Virtualization Expert Group (EG-VIRT). The objective of virtio-loopback is to abstract hardware dependencies for the AGL framework/applications in a way that user space programs can be run unmodified on real hardware, virtualized systems and in the cloud. During this presentation we will go through the design and results of the virtio-loopback implementation activity.

    • Title: Cloud-Native Automotive Edge: AGL for Software-defined Vehicles
    • Abstract: 

      Cloud-native has been a hot topic in the automotive world along with the increasing needs for Software-defined Vehicles, which enables OEMs/Tier1s to develop software decoupled from the limitations of hardware. In this session, AGL Virtualization Expert Group and Container and Mesh Expert Group will jointly give a presentation on how AGL is approaching Software defined Vehicles, including defining the standard device virtualization framework “VirtIO” across automotive cloud & edge, and laying the groundwork for micro-service orchestration for on-board automotive systems.

    • Title:virtio-loopback: an Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for non-virtualized environments.
    • Abstract:

      virtio-loopback is a virtio Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for non-virtualized environments drafted by Virtualization Expert Group (EG-VIRT). The objective of virtio-loopback is to abstract hardware dependencies for the AGL framework/applications in a way that user space programs can be run unmodified on real hardware, virtualized systems and in the cloud. During this presentation we will go through the design and results of the virtio-loopback implementation activity.
