RE: [HyperV-2016] urandom performance issue...

2018-08-23 Thread Wei Hu via freebsd-virtualization
I was not able to reproduce it on my test machine with Windows 10 (Build 17134) 
host and FreeBSD 11.2 release guest. I downloaded the 11.2 guest image directly 
from freebsd.org.

When running the dd command, I did see the guest OS hanged until the dd exited. 
However, there is no dmesg coming out during the run, neither did the host 
freeze.  I allocated 2GB memory and 1 vcpu to the guest.  The host performance 
monitor shows around 20% of system usage when the dd was running. It got back 
to single digit after it exited.

Thanks,
Wei

This is happening with Hyper-V Server 2016.
It's seems to not be the same on 2012 version, but the VM was on FreeBSD 10.3, 
not 11.2.

If you're having troubles w/ the host freezing, this should probably still be 
investigated as even w/ the excessive locking, it should never freeze.

[HyperV-2016] urandom performance issue...

2018-08-21 Thread Support SimpleRezo
Hi list!

I was figuring a performance issue of a FreeBSD on HyperV, after:
  - moving it from an Hyper-V 2012 host to a Hyper-V 2016
  - updating to FreeBSD 11.2 (custom kernel, but same issue with GENERIC)
After loosing some times because i was thinking about hardware issue (disk
controller was my first thought...) and testing with "dd
if=/dev/urandom"... I discovered this...

I ran the following test... and quite surprised by the speed result!
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null bs=10M count=3
3+0 records in
3+0 records out
31457280 bytes transferred in 27.960431 secs (1125064 bytes/sec)
The test was also sometimes "freezing" the Hyper-V host!

Looking into "dmesg" i have found this:
random: registering fast source Intel Secure Key RNG
random: fast provider: "Intel Secure Key RNG"

So I rebuilt my KERNEL without "rdrand_rng" (didn't find another way to
disable it...)... and performances went back to normal!

I think this issue should documented on https://wiki.freebsd.org/HyperV !

Regards
