[PATCH 0/2] vfio/type1/pci: IOMMU PFNMAP invalidation

From: Alex Williamson
Date: Thu May 14 2020 - 12:52:01 EST


This is a follow-on series to "vfio-pci: Block user access to disabled
device MMIO"[1], which extends user access blocking of disabled MMIO
ranges to include unmapping the ranges from the IOMMU. The first patch
adds an invalidation callback path, allowing vfio bus drivers to signal
the IOMMU backend to unmap ranges with vma level granularity. This
signaling is done both when the MMIO range becomes inaccessible due to
memory disabling, as well as when a vma is closed, making up for the
lack of tracking or pinning for non-page backed vmas. The second
patch adds registration and testing interfaces such that the IOMMU
backend driver can test whether a given PFNMAP vma is provided by a
vfio bus driver supporting invalidation. We can then implement more
restricted semantics to only allow PFNMAP DMA mappings when we have
such support, which becomes the new default.

Jason, if you'd like Suggested-by credit for the ideas here I'd be
glad to add it. Thanks,

Alex
