[PATCH v10 vfio 0/7] pds_vfio driver

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

 



This is a patchset for a new vendor specific VFIO driver
(pds_vfio) for use with the AMD/Pensando Distributed Services Card
(DSC). This driver makes use of the pds_core driver.

This driver will use the pds_core device's adminq as the VFIO
control path to the DSC. In order to make adminq calls, the VFIO
instance makes use of functions exported by the pds_core driver.

In order to receive events from pds_core, the pds_vfio driver
registers to a private notifier. This is needed for various events
that come from the device.

An ASCII diagram of a VFIO instance looks something like this and can
be used with the VFIO subsystem to provide the VF device VFIO and live
migration support.

The pds_vfio driver is targeted to reside in drivers/vfio/pci/pds.
It makes use of and introduces new files in the common include/linux/pds
include directory.

Changes:

v10:
- Various fixes/suggestions by Jason Gunthorpe
	- Simplify pds_vfio_get_lm_file() based on fpga_mgr_buf_load()
	- Clean-ups/fixes based on clang-format
	- Remove any double goto labels
	- Name goto labels baesed on what needs to be cleaned/freed
	  instead of a "call from" scheme
	- Fix any goto unwind ordering issues
	- Make sure call dma_map_single() after data is written to
	  memory in pds_vfio_dma_map_lm_file()
	- Don't use bitmap_zalloc() for the dirty bitmaps
- Use vzalloc() for dirty bitmaps and refactor how the bitmaps are DMA'd
  to and from the device in pds_vfio_dirty_seq_ack()
- Remove unnecessary goto in pds_vfio_dirty_disable()

v9:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230422010642.60720-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- Various fixes/suggestions by Alex Williamson
	- Fix how ID is generated in client registration
	- Add helper functions to get the VF's struct device and struct
	  pci_dev pointers instead of caching the struct pci dev
	- Remove redundant pds_vfio_lm_state() function and remove any
	  places this was being called
	- Fix multi-line comments to follow standard convention
	- Remove confusing comments in
	  pds_vfio_step_device_state_locked() since the driver's
	  migration states align with the VFIO documentation
	- Validate pdsc returned from pdsc_get_pf_struct()
- Various fixes/suggestions by Jason Gunthorpe
	- Use struct pdsc instead of void *
	- Use {} instead of {0} for structure initialization
	- Use unions on the stack instead of casting to the union when
	  sending AQ commands, which required including pds_lm.h in
	  pds_adminq.h
	- Replace use of dma_alloc_coherent() when creating the sgl DMA
	  entries for the LM file
	- Remove cached struct device *coredev and instead use
	  pci_physfn() to get the pds_core's struct device pointer
	- Drop the recovery work item and call pds_vfio_recovery()
	  directly from the notifier callback
	- Remove unnecessary #define for "pds_vfio_lm" and just use the
	  string inline to the anon_inode_getfile() argument
- Fix LM file reference counting
- Move initialization of some struct members to when the struct is being
  initialized for AQ commands
- Make use of GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT where it makes sense
- Replace PDS_VFIO_DRV_NAME with KBUILD_MODNAME
- Update to latest pds_core exported functions
- Remove duplicated prototypes for
  pds_vfio_dma_logging_[start|stop|report] from lm.h
- Hold pds_vfio->state_mutex while starting, stopping, and reporting
  dirty page tracking in pds_vfio_dma_logging_[start|stop|report]
- Remove duplicate PDS_DEV_TYPE_LM_STR define from pds_lm.h that's
  already included in pds_common.h
- Replace use of dma_alloc_coherent() when creating the sgl DMA
  entries for the dirty bitmaps

v8:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230404190141.57762-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- provide default iommufd callbacks for bind_iommufd, unbind_iommufd, and
  attach_ioas for the VFIO device as suggested by Shameerali Kolothum
  Thodi

v7:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230331003612.17569-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- Disable and clean up dirty page tracking when the VFIO device is closed
- Various improvements suggested by Simon Horman:
	- Fix RCT in vfio_combine_iova_ranges()
	- Simplify function exit paths by removing unnecessary goto
	  labels
	- Cleanup pds_vifo_print_guest_region_info() by adding a goto
	  label for freeing memory, which allowed for reduced
	  indentation on a for loop
	- Where possible use C99 style for loops

v6:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230327200553.13951-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- As suggested by Alex Williamson, use pci_domain_nr() macro to make sure
  the pds_vfio client's devname is unique
- Remove unnecessary forward declaration and include
- Fix copyright comment to use correct company name
- Remove "." from struct documentation for consistency

v5:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230322203442.56169-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- Fix SPDX comments in .h files
- Remove adminqcq argument from pdsc_post_adminq() uses
- Unregister client on vfio_pci_core_register_device() failure
- Other minor checkpatch issues

v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230308052450.13421-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- Update cover letter ASCII diagram to reflect new driver architecture
- Remove auxiliary driver implementation
- Use pds_core's exported functions to communicate with the device
- Implement and register notifier for events from the device/pds_core
- Use module_pci_driver() macro since auxiliary driver configuration is
  no longer needed in __init/__exit

v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230219083908.40013-1-brett.creeley@xxxxxxx/
- Update copyright year to 2023 and use "Advanced Micro Devices, Inc."
  for the company name

  agnostic, which aligns with other current VFIO solutions
- Add line in drivers/vfio/pci/Makefile to build pds_vfio
- Move documentation to amd sub-directory
- Remove some dead code due to the pds_core implementation of
  listening to BIND/UNBIND events
- Move a dev_dbg() to a previous patch in the series
- Add implementation for vfio_migration_ops.migration_get_data_size to
