2015-12-22vfio: Include No-IOMMU modeAlex Williamson1-0/+15
There is really no way to safely give a user full access to a DMA capable device without an IOMMU to protect the host system. There is also no way to provide DMA translation, for use cases such as device assignment to virtual machines. However, there are still those users that want userspace drivers even under those conditions. The UIO driver exists for this use case, but does not provide the degree of device access and programming that VFIO has. In an effort to avoid code duplication, this introduces a No-IOMMU mode for VFIO. This mode requires building VFIO with CONFIG_VFIO_NOIOMMU and enabling the "enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode" option on the vfio driver. This should make it very clear that this mode is not safe. Additionally, CAP_SYS_RAWIO privileges are necessary to work with groups and containers using this mode. Groups making use of this support are named /dev/vfio/noiommu-$GROUP and can only make use of the special VFIO_NOIOMMU_IOMMU for the container. Use of this mode, specifically binding a device without a native IOMMU group to a VFIO bus driver will taint the kernel and should therefore not be considered supported. This patch includes no-iommu support for the vfio-pci bus driver only. Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2015-12-04Revert: "vfio: Include No-IOMMU mode"Alex Williamson1-15/+0
Revert commit 033291eccbdb ("vfio: Include No-IOMMU mode") due to lack of a user. This was originally intended to fill a need for the DPDK driver, but uptake has been slow so rather than support an unproven kernel interface revert it and revisit when userspace catches up.

2015-03-17vfio: Split virqfd into a separate module for vfio bus driversAlex Williamson1-0/+5
An unintended consequence of commit 42ac9bd18d4f ("vfio: initialize the virqfd workqueue in VFIO generic code") is that the vfio module is renamed to vfio_core so that it can include both vfio and virqfd. That's a user visible change that may break module loading scritps and it imposes eventfd support as a dependency on the core vfio code, which it's really not. virqfd is intended to be provided as a service to vfio bus drivers, so instead of wrapping it into vfio.ko, we can make it a stand-alone module toggled by vfio bus drivers. This has the additional benefit of removing initialization and exit from the core vfio code. Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>

2013-06-20powerpc/vfio: Implement IOMMU driver for VFIOAlexey Kardashevskiy1-0/+6
VFIO implements platform independent stuff such as a PCI driver, BAR access (via read/write on a file descriptor or direct mapping when possible) and IRQ signaling. The platform dependent part includes IOMMU initialization and handling. This implements an IOMMU driver for VFIO which does mapping/unmapping pages for the guest IO and provides information about DMA window (required by a POWER guest).

2012-07-31vfio: Add PCI device driverAlex Williamson1-0/+2
Add PCI device support for VFIO. PCI devices expose regions for accessing config space, I/O port space, and MMIO areas of the device. PCI config access is virtualized in the kernel, allowing us to ensure the integrity of the system, by preventing various accesses while reducing duplicate support across various userspace drivers. I/O port supports read/write access while MMIO also supports mmap of sufficiently sized regions. Support for INTx, MSI, and MSI-X interrupts are provided using eventfds to userspace.

2012-07-31vfio: Type1 IOMMU implementationAlex Williamson1-0/+6
This VFIO IOMMU backend is designed primarily for AMD-Vi and Intel VT-d hardware, but is potentially usable by anything supporting similar mapping functionality. We arbitrarily call this a Type1 backend for lack of a better name. This backend has no IOVA or host memory mapping restrictions for the user and is optimized for relatively static mappings. Mapped areas are pinned into system memory. Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
2012-07-31vfio: VFIO coreAlex Williamson1-0/+8
VFIO is a secure user level driver for use with both virtual machines and user level drivers. VFIO makes use of IOMMU groups to ensure the isolation of devices in use, allowing unprivileged user access. It's intended that VFIO will replace KVM device assignment and UIO drivers (in cases where the target platform includes a sufficiently capable IOMMU). New in this version of VFIO is support for IOMMU groups managed through the IOMMU core as well as a rework of the API, removing the group merge interface. We now go back to a model more similar to original VFIO with UIOMMU support where the file descriptor obtained from /dev/vfio/vfio allows access to the IOMMU, but only after a group is added, avoiding the previous privilege issues with this type of model. IOMMU support is also now fully modular as IOMMUs have vastly different interface requirements on different platforms. VFIO users are able to query and initialize the IOMMU model of their choice. Please see the follow-on Documentation commit for further description and usage example. Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
