[PATCH v2 0/4] Retrieving zPCI specific info with VFIO

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

 



Using the PCI VFIO interface allows userland, a.k.a. QEMU, to retrieve
ZPCI specific information without knowing Z specific identifiers
like the function ID or the function handle of the zPCI function
hidden behind the PCI interface.

By using the VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO ioctl we enter the vfio_iommu_type1
ioctl callback and can insert there the treatment for a new Z specific
capability.

Once in vfio_iommu_type1 we can retrieve the real iommu device,
s390_iommu and call the get_attr iommu operation's callback
in which we can retrieve the zdev device and start clp operations
to retrieve Z specific values the guest driver is concerned with.

To share the code with arch/s390/pci/pci_clp.c the original functions
in pci_clp.c to query PCI functions and PCI functions group are
modified so that they can be exported.

A new function clp_query_pci() replaces clp_query_pci_fn() and
the previous calls to clp_query_pci_fn() and clp_query_pci_fngrp()
are replaced with calls to zdev_query_pci_fn() and zdev_query_pci_fngrp()
using a zdev pointer as argument.
