This just feels a little bit too complicated
I've recently learned from Daniel that we can use the address_space
machinery to drive the zap_vma_ptes() via unmap_mapping_range(). This
technique replaces all the open, close and vma_list logic in vfio_pci
If we don't need open anymore, we could do something like this:
static const struct vm_operations_struct vfio_pci_mmap_ops = {
.open = vfio_pfn_open, // implemented in vfio.c
.close = vfio_pfn_close,
.fault = vfio_pci_mmap_fault,
};
Then we could code the function needed:
struct vfio_pfn_range_handle
{
struct kref kref;
struct vfio_device *vfio;
struct notifier_block invalidation_cb;
unsigned int flags;
}
struct vfio_pfn_range_handle *get_pfn_range(struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
struct vfio_pfn_range_handle *handle;
if (vma->ops->open != vfio_pfn_open)
return NULL;
handle = vma->vm_private_data;
if (test_bit(handle->flags, DMA_STOPPED)
return NULL;
kref_get(&handle->kref);
return handle;
}
Where the common open/close only kref inc/dec the kref and all 'vfio'
VMAs always have a pointer to the same vfio_pfn_range_handle in their
private_data.
The vm_pgoff is already pointing at the physical pfn, so every part of
the system can get the information it needs fairly trivially.
Some stop access function is pretty simple looking
void stop_access(struct vfio_pfn_range_handle *handle)
{
set_bit(handle->flags, DMA_STOPPED);
unmap_mapping_range(handle->vfio->[..]->inode, 0, max, false);
srcu_notifier_call_chain(handle->invalidation_cb, VFIO_VMA_NOTIFY_CLOSE, NULL);
}
(well, have to sort out the locking some more, but that is the
general idea)
I think that would remove alot of the code added here and acts a lot
closer to how a someday dmabuf could act.
Also, this will need to update the nvlink vmops as well
