[PATCH v12 00/22] Add Mediated device support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series adds Mediated device support to Linux host kernel. Purpose
of this series is to provide a common interface for mediated device
management that can be used by different devices. This series introduces
Mdev core module that creates and manages mediated devices, VFIO based
driver for mediated devices that are created by mdev core module and
update VFIO type1 IOMMU module to support pinning & unpinning for mediated
devices.

What changed v11-> v12?
vfio_iommu_type1:
- Pinned pages are tracked in vfio_dma structure for that range, dma->iova
  to dma->iova + dma->size.
- Key for pfn_list rb-tree is iova, instead of pfn.
- Removing address space structure. vfio_dma keeps task structure, which
  is used to get mm structure (using get_task_mm(task) and mmput(mm)) for
  pin/unpin and page accounting.
- vfio_unpin_pages() has array of user_pfns as input argument, instead of
  array of pfns.
- On vfio_pin_pages(), pinning happens once. On later call to
  vfio_pin_pages() with same user_pfn, if iova is found in pfn_list, only
  ref_count is incremented.
- In vfio_unpin_pages(), ref_count is decremented and page is unpinned
  when ref_count is 0.
- For vfio_pin_pages() and vfio_unpin_pages() input array, number of
  elements in array should be less that PAGE_SIZE. If vendor driver wants
  to use for more pages, array should  be split it in chunks of PAGE_SIZE.
- Updating page accounting logic with above changes.

Tested by assigning below combinations of devices to a single VM:
- GPU pass through only
- vGPU device only
- One GPU pass through and one vGPU device
- Linux VM hot plug and unplug vGPU device while GPU pass through device
  exist
- Linux VM hot plug and unplug GPU pass through device while vGPU device
  exist

Tested with Linux 4.9-rc5
