vfio-cdx driver enables IOCTLs for user space to query
MMIO regions for CDX devices and mmap them. This change
also adds support for reset of CDX devices.

This change adds the VFIO CDX driver and enables the following
ioctls for CDX devices:
- VFIO_DEVICE_GET_INFO:
- VFIO_DEVICE_GET_REGION_INFO
- VFIO_DEVICE_RESET

Since there's no public specification for these devices and I'm not at
all familiar with them, what's the primary motivation for exposing
these devices for userspace drivers?

If it were only to query MMIO regions and mmap them as described above,
wouldn't something equivalent to pci-sysfs be sufficient, ie. mmap
access via sysfs?

To require a vfio driver suggest that we want to give exclusive
userspace ownership to a device capable of DMA. Are we doing that to
support a specific use cases that require a userspace driver or are we
doing that to build driver support for devices on this bus out-of-tree
from the kernel? I don't see anything else on lkml proposing a
cdx_driver.

Devices on CDX bus are capable of doing DMA. The motivation is to secure the access from the CDX devices (DMA) w.r.t. user-space applications and enable these applications to exercise MMIO, DMA and MSI on these devices. CDX bus is being upstreamed in DPDK as well using this VFIO interface.

Brief Arch overview is at top of file cdx.c:

Changes v4->v5:
- renamed vfio_cdx.c to main.c and vfio_cdx_private.h
to private.h
- have separate functions for get_info and get_region_info

Changes v3->v4:
- fix vfio info flags

Changes v2->v3:
- removed redundant init and release functions
- removed redundant dev and cdx_dev from vfio_cdx_device
- added support for iommufd
- added VFIO_DEVICE_FLAGS_CDX
- removed unrequried WARN_ON
- removed unused ioaddr

Changes v1->v2:
- Updated file2alias to support vfio_cdx
- removed some un-necessary checks in mmap
- removed vfio reset wrapper API
- converted complex macros to static APIs
- used pgprot_device and io_remap_pfn_range

+ * CDX_DRIVER_OVERRIDE_DEVICE_VFIO - macro used to describe a VFIO
+ * "driver_override" CDX device.
+ * @vend: the 16 bit CDX Vendor ID
+ * @dev: the 16 bit CDX Device ID

Lacking a public spec, is CDX_ANY_ID (0xffff) specifically reserved in
this address space? For example this is why PCI uses a u32 for vendor
and device ID in struct pci_device_id and PCI_ANY_ID is defined as ~0,
even though the vendor and device IDs on hardware are only 16bits.

CDX_ANY_ID is actually reserved and FW ensures that CDX_ANY_ID is not used by any CDX device as vendor or device ID.


+ *
+ * This macro is used to create a struct cdx_device_id that matches a
+ * specific device. driver_override will be set to
+ * CDX_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE.
+ */
+#define CDX_DRIVER_OVERRIDE_DEVICE_VFIO(vend, dev) \
+ CDX_DEVICE_DRIVER_OVERRIDE(vend, dev, CDX_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE)

This macro really makes more sense if it's in a shared bus header,
otherwise we could open code it in the device table below. Why isn't
this in include/linux/cdx/cdx_bus.h?

Agree, we will remove the macro CDX_DRIVER_OVERRIDE_DEVICE_VFIO and use CDX_DEVICE_DRIVER_OVERRIDE directly.

cdex_dev_reset() will dev_err() on failure, what value is this follow-on
dev_warn() adding?

Yes, this is not required. Will remove dev_warn from here.

Looks like this was copied from vfio-fsl-mc where I probably should
have asked the same, dev_err() seems excessive for a probe failure and
inconsistent with a failure in the vfio_alloc_device() path above.
What does dev_err() add here?

Agree, this is not required. Will remove dev_err from here as well.

Look at module_driver() rather than declaring init/exit functions and
