[PATCH v2 0/5] iommu: Enable user space IOPFs in non-PASID and non-svm cases

From: Joel Granados via B4 Relay
Date: Fri Sep 13 2024 - 07:45:41 EST


This series makes use of iommufd_hwpt_replace_device to execute
non-pasid/non-svm user space IOPFs. Our main motivation is to enable
user-space driver driven device verification without SVM/PASID.

What?
* Enable IO page fault handling in user space for a non-pasid, non-svm
and non-virtualised use case.
* Move IOMMU_IOPF configuration from INTEL_IOMMU_SVM into INTEL_IOMMU.
* Move all page request queue related logic to a new (prq.c) file.
* Remove PASID checks from PRQ event handling as well as PRQ
initialization.
* Allow execution of IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC with a valid fault id
(IOMMU_HWPT_FAULT_ID_VALID)
* Insert a zero handle into the PASID array in dev->iommu_group when
replacing the old HWPT with an IOPF enabled HWPT.

Why?
The PCI ATS Extended Capability allows peripheral devices to
participate in the caching of translations when operating under an
IOMMU. Further, the ATS Page Request Interface (PRI) Extension allows
devices to handle missing mappings. Currently, PRI is mainly used in
the context of Shared Virtual Addressing, requiring support for the
Process Address Space Identifier (PASID) capability, but other use
cases such as enabling user-space driver driven device verification
and reducing memory pinning exists. This patchest sets out to enable
these use cases.

Testing?
The non-svm IOPF interface is exercised by first initializing an IOPF
enabled IOAS and then reading the fault file descriptor. Pseudocode on
the iopf initializing and handling is in [3] and [4] (using libvfn).

Supplementary repositories supporting this patchset:
1. A user space library libvfn [1] which is used for testing and
verification (see examples/iopf.c), and
2. Basic emulation of PCIe ATS/PRI and Intel VT-d PRQ in QEMU [2].

Changes in v2:
- Remove "nesting" from wording. This wording is left over from initial
versions that are now irrelevant.
- Dropped "iommu: init pasid array while doing domain_replace and iopf
is active" as the initialization of the pasid_array x-array happens
automatically when an iopf capable domain is replaced on a device.
- Corrected commit message in "iommu/vt-d: Separate page request queue
from SVM"
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240904-jag-iopfv8-v1-0-e3549920adf3@xxxxxxxxxxx

V1:
- This is the first version of the series after initial feedback from
the RFC [5].

Comments and feedback are greatly appreciated
Best

[3] Initializing
```
int iopf_init(struct iommu_ioas *ioas, const char *bdf)
{
// open vfio device from bdf
int devfd = open('/dev/vfio/devices/VFIO_DEV', O_RDWR);

struct vfio_device_bind_iommufd bind = {
.argsz = sizeof(bind),
.flags = 0,
.iommufd = __iommufd,
};
ioctl(devfd, VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_IOMMUFD, &bind);

struct iommu_ioas *ioas = ioas;
struct vfio_device_attach_iommufd_pt attach_data = {
.argsz = sizeof(attach_data),
.flags = 0,
.pt_id = ioas->id,
};
ioctl(devfd, VFIO_DEVICE_ATTACH_IOMMUFD_PT, &attach_data);

struct iommu_fault_alloc fault = {
.size = sizeof(fault),
.flags = 0,
};
ioctl(__iommufd, IOMMU_FAULT_QUEUE_ALLOC, &fault);

struct iommu_hwpt_alloc fault_cmd = {
.size = sizeof(fault_cmd),
.flags = IOMMU_HWPT_FAULT_ID_VALID,
.dev_id = bind.out_devid,
.pt_id = ioas->id,
.data_len = 0,
.data_uptr = (uint64_t)NULL,
.fault_id = fault.out_fault_id,
.__reserved = 0,
};
ioctl(__iommufd, IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC, &fault_cmd);

// This is a re-attach
struct vfio_device_attach_iommufd_pt attach = {
.argsz = sizeof(attach),
.flags = 0,
.pt_id = fault_cmd.out_hwpt_id
};
ioctl(dev_fd, VFIO_DEVICE_ATTACH_IOMMUFD_PT, &attach);
}
```

[4] Handling
```
int handle_iopf(void *vaddr, int len, uint64_t iova) {
exec_command(CMD)

int iopf_fd = fault_cmd.fault_id;

struct iommu_hwpt_pgfault pgfault = {0};
if(read(iopf_fd, &pgfault, sizeof(pgfault)) == 0);
return; // no page fault

ret = iommu_map_vaddr(__iommmufd, vaddr, len, &iova)
struct iommu_hwpt_page_response pgfault_response = {
.cookie = pgfault.cookie,
.code = ret ? IOMMUFD_PAGE_RESP_SUCCESS : IOMMUFD_PAGE_RESP_INVALID,
};

write(iopf_fd, &pgfault_response, sizeof(pgfault_response));

return;
}
```
