[RFC 12/20] iommu/iommufd: Add IOMMU_CHECK_EXTENSION

From: Liu Yi L
Date: Sun Sep 19 2021 - 02:43:27 EST


As aforementioned, userspace should check extension for what formats
can be specified when allocating an IOASID. This patch adds such
interface for userspace. In this RFC, iommufd reports EXT_MAP_TYPE1V2
support and no no-snoop support yet.

+ * according to its intended usage.
+ *
+ * A rough list of possible extensions may include:
+ *
+ * - EXT_MAP_TYPE1V2 for vfio type1v2 map semantics;
+ * - EXT_DMA_NO_SNOOP for no-snoop DMA support;
+ * - EXT_MAP_NEWTYPE for an enhanced map semantics;
+ * - EXT_MULTIDEV_GROUP for 1:N iommu group;
+ * - EXT_IOASID_NESTING for what the name stands;
+ * - EXT_USER_PAGE_TABLE for user managed page table;
+ * - EXT_USER_PASID_TABLE for user managed PASID table;
+ * - EXT_DIRTY_TRACKING for tracking pages dirtied by DMA;
+ * - ...
+ *
+ * Return: 0 if not supported, 1 if supported.
