[PATCH v8 7/7] vfio/type1: return MSI mapping requirements with VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO

Eric Auger eric.auger at linaro.org
Thu Apr 28 01:28:38 PDT 2016


This patch allows the user-space to know whether MSI addresses need to
be mapped in the IOMMU. The user-space uses VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO ioctl and
IOMMU_INFO_REQUIRE_MSI_MAP gets set if they need to.

The computation of the number of IOVA pages to be provided by the user
space will be implemented in a separate patch using capability chains.

---
v6 -> v7:
- remove the computation of the number of IOVA pages to be provisionned.
  This number depends on the domain/group/device topology which can
  dynamically change. Let's rely instead rely on an arbitrary max depending
  on the system

v4 -> v5:
- move msi_info and ret declaration within the conditional code

v3 -> v4:
- replace former vfio_domains_require_msi_mapping by
  more complex computation of MSI mapping requirements, especially the
  number of pages to be provided by the user-space.
- reword patch title

RFC v1 -> v1:
- derived from
  [RFC PATCH 3/6] vfio: Extend iommu-info to return MSIs automap state
- renamed allow_msi_reconfig into require_msi_mapping
- fixed VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO
