[PATCH v2 2/2] vhost-vdpa: introduce NO-IOMMU backend feature bit

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

 



This patch introduces the VHOST_BACKEND_F_NOIOMMU feature flag.
This flag allows userspace to identify if the driver can operate
without an IOMMU, providing more flexibility in environments where
IOMMU is not available or desired.

Key changes include:
    - Addition of the VHOST_BACKEND_F_NOIOMMU feature flag.
    - Updates to vhost_vdpa_unlocked_ioctl to handle the NO-IOMMU
      feature.
The NO-IOMMU mode is enabled if:
    - The vdpa device lacks an IOMMU domain.
    - The system has the required RAWIO permissions.
    - The vdpa device explicitly supports NO-IOMMU mode.

This feature flag indicates to userspace that the driver can safely
operate in NO-IOMMU mode. If the flag is absent, userspace should
assume NO-IOMMU mode is unsupported and take appropriate actions.
