This series introduces a framework, which can be used to implement
vDPA Devices in a userspace program. The work consist of two parts:
control path forwarding and data path offloading.

In the control path, the VDUSE driver will make use of message
mechnism to forward the config operation from vdpa bus driver
to userspace. Userspace can use read()/write() to receive/reply
those control messages.

In the data path, the core is mapping dma buffer into VDUSE
daemon's address space, which can be implemented in different ways
depending on the vdpa bus to which the vDPA device is attached.

In virtio-vdpa case, we implements a MMU-based on-chip IOMMU driver with
bounce-buffering mechanism to achieve that. And in vhost-vdpa case, the dma
buffer is reside in a userspace memory region which can be shared to the
VDUSE userspace processs via transferring the shmfd.

The details and our user case is shown below:

This all looks quite similar to vhost-user-block except that one
does not need any kernel support at all.

So I am still scratching my head about its advantages over
vhost-user-block.


We make use of it to implement a block device connecting to
our distributed storage, which can be used both in containers and
VMs. Thus, we can have an unified technology stack in this two cases.
Maybe the container part is the answer. How does that stack look?


Yong Ji may add more and I think this has been demonstrated in the above figure: the userspace vDPA device can provide a kenrel virito-blk device via virtio_vdpa driver.

Thanks



To test it with null-blk:

   $ qemu-storage-daemon \
       --chardev socket,id=charmonitor,path=/tmp/qmp.sock,server,nowait \
       --monitor chardev=charmonitor \
       --blockdev driver=host_device,cache.direct=on,aio=native,filename=/dev/nullb0,node-name=disk0 \
       --export type=vduse-blk,id=test,node-name=disk0,writable=on,name=vduse-null,num-queues=16,queue-size=128

- Enable config interrupt support
- Support binding irq to the specified cpu
- Add two module parameter to limit bounce/iova size
- Create char device rather than anon inode per vduse
- Reuse vhost IOTLB for iova domain
- Rework the message mechnism in control path

V2 to V3:
- Rework the MMU-based IOMMU driver
- Use the iova domain as iova allocator instead of genpool
- Support transferring vma->vm_file in vhost-vdpa
- Add SVA support in vhost-vdpa
- Remove the patches on bounce pages reclaim

V1 to V2:
- Add vhost-vdpa support
- Add some documents
- Based on the vdpa management tool
- Introduce a workqueue for irq injection
