Introduce a vfio driver over virtio devices to support the legacy
interface functionality for VFs.
Background, from the virtio spec [1].
--------------------------------------------------------------------
In some systems, there is a need to support a virtio legacy driver with
a device that does not directly support the legacy interface. In such
scenarios, a group owner device can provide the legacy interface
functionality for the group member devices. The driver of the owner
device can then access the legacy interface of a member device on behalf
of the legacy member device driver.
For example, with the SR-IOV group type, group members (VFs) can not
present the legacy interface in an I/O BAR in BAR0 as expected by the
legacy pci driver. If the legacy driver is running inside a virtual
machine, the hypervisor executing the virtual machine can present a
virtual device with an I/O BAR in BAR0. The hypervisor intercepts the
legacy driver accesses to this I/O BAR and forwards them to the group
owner device (PF) using group administration commands.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Specifically, this driver adds support for a virtio-net VF to be exposed
as a transitional device to a guest driver and allows the legacy IO BAR
functionality on top.
This allows a VM which uses a legacy virtio-net driver in the guest to
work transparently over a VF which its driver in the host is that new
driver.
The driver can be extended easily to support some other types of virtio
devices (e.g virtio-blk), by adding in a few places the specific type
properties as was done for virtio-net.
For now, only the virtio-net use case was tested and as such we introduce
the support only for such a device.
Practically,
Upon probing a VF for a virtio-net device, in case its PF supports
legacy access over the virtio admin commands and the VF doesn't have BAR
0, we set some specific 'vfio_device_ops' to be able to simulate in SW a
transitional device with I/O BAR in BAR 0.
The existence of the simulated I/O bar is reported later on by
overwriting the VFIO_DEVICE_GET_REGION_INFO command and the device
exposes itself as a transitional device by overwriting some properties
upon reading its config space.
Once we report the existence of I/O BAR as BAR 0 a legacy driver in the
guest may use it via read/write calls according to the virtio
specification.
Any read/write towards the control parts of the BAR will be captured by
the new driver and will be translated into admin commands towards the
device.
Any data path read/write access (i.e. virtio driver notifications) will
be forwarded to the physical BAR which its properties were supplied by
the admin command VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LEGACY_NOTIFY_INFO upon the
probing/init flow.
With that code in place a legacy driver in the guest has the look and
feel as if having a transitional device with legacy support for both its
control and data path flows.

BTW shouldn't this driver be limited to X86? Things like lack of memory
barriers will make legacy virtio racy on e.g. ARM will they not?
And endian-ness will be broken on PPC ...
OK, if so, we can come with the below extra code.
Makes sense ?
I'll squash it as part of V8 to the relevant patch.

Yishai
Isn't there going to be a bunch more dead code that compiler won't be
able to elide?
On my setup the compiler didn't complain about dead-code (I simulated it
by using ifdef CONFIG_X86 return false).
However, if we suspect that some compiler might complain, we can come
with the below instead.
Do you prefer that ?
