This branch has three new iommufd capabilities:
- Dirty tracking for DMA. AMD/ARM/Intel CPUs can now record if a DMA
writes to a page in the IOPTEs within the IO page table. This can be used
to generate a record of what memory is being dirtied by DMA activities
during a VM migration process. A VMM like qemu will combine the IOMMU
dirty bits with the CPU's dirty log to determine what memory to
transfer.
VFIO already has a DMA dirty tracking framework that requires PCI
devices to implement tracking HW internally. The iommufd version
provides an alternative that the VMM can select, if available. The two
are designed to have very similar APIs.
- Userspace controlled attributes for hardware page
tables (HWPT/iommu_domain). There are currently a few generic attributes
for HWPTs (support dirty tracking, and parent of a nest). This is an
entry point for the userspace iommu driver to control the HW in detail.
- Nested translation support for HWPTs. This is a 2D translation scheme
similar to the CPU where a DMA goes through a first stage to determine
an intermediate address which is then translated trough a second stage
to a physical address.
Like for CPU translation the first stage table would exist in VM
controlled memory and the second stage is in the kernel and matches the
VM's guest to physical map.
As every IOMMU has a unique set of parameter to describe the S1 IO page
table and its associated parameters the userspace IOMMU driver has to
marshal the information into the correct format.
This is 1/3 of the feature, it allows creating the nested translation
and binding it to VFIO devices, however the API to support IOTLB and
ATC invalidation of the stage 1 io page table, and forwarding of IO
faults are still in progress.
The series includes AMD and Intel support for dirty tracking. Intel
support for nested translation.
Along the way are a number of internal items:
- New iommu core items: ops->domain_alloc_user(), ops->set_dirty_tracking,
ops->read_and_clear_dirty(), IOMMU_DOMAIN_NESTED, and iommu_copy_struct_from_user
- UAF fix in iopt_area_split()
- Spelling fixes and some test suite improvement
