Nested translation has two stage address translations to get the final physical addresses. Take Intel VT-d as an example, the first stage translation structure is I/O page table. As the below diagram shows, guest I/O page table pointer in GPA (guest physical address) is passed to host to do the first stage translation. Along with it, guest modifications to present mappings in the first stage page should be followed with an iotlb invalidation to sync host iotlb. .-------------. .---------------------------. | vIOMMU | | Guest I/O page table | | | '---------------------------' .----------------/ | PASID Entry |--- PASID cache flush --+ '-------------' | | | V | | I/O page table pointer in GPA '-------------' Guest ------| Shadow |--------------------------|-------- v v v Host .-------------. .------------------------. | pIOMMU | | FS for GIOVA->GPA | | | '------------------------' .----------------/ | | PASID Entry | V (Nested xlate) '----------------\.----------------------------------. | | | SS for GPA->HPA, unmanaged domain| | | '----------------------------------' '-------------' Where: - FS = First stage page tables - SS = Second stage page tables <Intel VT-d Nested translation> Different platform vendors have different first stage translation formats, so userspace should query the underlying iommu capability before setting first stage translation structures to host.[1] In iommufd subsystem, I/O page tables would be tracked by hw_pagetable objects. First stage page table is owned by userspace (guest), while second stage page table is owned by kernel for security. So First stage page tables are tracked by user-managed hw_pagetable, second stage page tables are tracked by kernel- managed hw_pagetable. This series first introduces new iommu op for allocating domains for iommufd, and op for syncing iotlb for first stage page table modifications, and then add the implementation of the new ops in intel-iommu driver. After this preparation, adds kernel-managed and user-managed hw_pagetable allocation for userspace. Last, add self-test for the new ioctls. This series is based on "[PATCH 0/6] iommufd: Add iommu capability reporting"[1] and Nicolin's "[PATCH v2 00/10] Add IO page table replacement support"[2]. Complete code can be found in[3]. Draft Qemu code can be found in[4]. Basic test done with DSA device on VT-d. Where the guest has a vIOMMU built with nested translation.
