This path introduces a new mdev transport for virtio. This is used to
use kernel virtio driver to drive the mediated device that is capable
of populating virtqueue directly.
A new virtio-mdev driver will be registered to the mdev bus, when a
new virtio-mdev device is probed, it will register the device with
mdev based config ops. This means, unlike the exist hardware
transport, this is a software transport between mdev driver and mdev
device. The transport was implemented through:
- configuration access was implemented through parent_ops->read()/write()
- vq/config callback was implemented through parent_ops->ioctl()
This transport is derived from virtio MMIO protocol and was wrote for
kernel driver. But for the transport itself, but the design goal is to
be generic enough to support userspace driver (this part will be added
in the future).
Note:
- current mdev assume all the parameter of parent_ops was from
userspace. This prevents us from implementing the kernel mdev
driver. For a quick POC, this patch just abuse those parameter and
assume the mdev device implementation will treat them as kernel
pointer. This should be addressed in the formal series by extending
mdev_parent_ops.
- for a quick POC, I just drive the transport from MMIO, I'm pretty
there's lot of optimization space for this.

IIUC, we can use above registers with virtio-mdev parent's
read()/write() to access the mdev device from kernel driver.
As you suggested, it's a choice to build vhost-mdev on top
of this abstraction as well. But virtio is the frontend
device which lacks some vhost backend features, e.g. get
vring base, set vring base, negotiate vhost features, etc.
So I'm wondering, does it make sense to reserve some space
for vhost-mdev in kernel to do vhost backend specific setups?
Or do you have any other thoughts?
Good point. It's just a quick POC, I plan to add vhost features in the
next release:
1) set/get virtqueue state (e.g vring base)
2) dirty page tracking
3) for vhost features, if you mean _F_LOG_ALL, it could be done by 2),
for IOTLB, it requires more thought on the API since current IOTLB API
is no implemented through ioctl ...
Besides, I'm also wondering, what's the purpose of making
above registers part of UAPI?
Sorry if it brings confusion. If we do vhost-mdev on top of this,
there's no need for this to go for UAPI.
And if we make them part
of UAPI, do we also need to make them part of virtio spec?
Yes, but I do not think we should put it into UAPI. Technically,
userspace can use this transport as well with some modification on the
interrupt part, e.g using eventfd. But is there any value for doing this
instead of vhost?
Thanks
Thanks!
