[PATCH] vfio/platform: keep logical vm_pgoff in MMIO region mmap

From: Abdifatah Suruur

Date: Thu Sep 03 2026 - 05:41:50 EST


vfio_platform_mmap_mmio() overwrites vma->vm_pgoff with the physical
frame number of the MMIO region and passes it to remap_pfn_range().
The VMA is inserted into the device file's mapping->i_mmap interval
tree keyed by vm_pgoff, which VFIO expects to be the logical file
offset: the core links every device mmap to the device inode's
i_mapping precisely so that unmap_mapping_range() can revoke all
mappings associated with a device (see vfio_device_cdev_open()).

With a raw PFN in vm_pgoff the interval tree entry lands in the wrong
coordinate space and unmap_mapping_range() cannot find the VMA,
leaving stale MMIO mappings behind any revocation attempt. Keep
vm_pgoff in the logical VFIO offset space, as vfio-pci does, and pass
the physical PFN to remap_pfn_range() explicitly.
