[PATCH v2 0/1] IOMMU SVA device driver interface

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker
Date: Wed Mar 20 2019 - 11:03:59 EST


This is the device driver API for SVA (Shared Virtual Addressing).
Changes since v1 [1]:

* Following comments, return a handle rather than a PASID. I agree that
it makes things easier for device drivers as well, because they don't
need to worry about the unbind()/mm_exit() race as much. Previously
they couldn't issue an unbind() if the mm exited since the PASID could
have been reallocated.

* If a handle already exists, reuse it and take a reference instead of
returning EEXIST. As noted by Zhangfei and myself during development,
it can make things a bit easier for device drivers that need to handle
multiple threads in a process issuing bind() for the same dev and mm.

The four dev_feature functions are implemented by Lu Baolu's IOMMU-aware
mdev series [2].

iommu_dev_has_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) -> true/false
iommu_dev_enable_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) -> 0/err
iommu_dev_disable_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) -> 0/err
iommu_dev_feature_enabled(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) -> true/false

Patch 1/1 adds the next four functions, once the SVA feature is enabled:

iommu_sva_bind(dev, mm, drvdata) -> handle

/*
* Only exit_mm() for now, but later callbacks to deal with
* unhandled PRI faults and possible others:
*/
iommu_sva_set_ops(handle, iommu_sva_ops) -> 0/err

iommu_sva_get_pasid(handle) -> pasid/invalid

iommu_sva_unbind(handle)
