2020-10-21virtio: let arch advertise guest's memory access restrictionsPierre Morel1-0/+6
An architecture may restrict host access to guest memory, e.g. IBM s390 Secure Execution or AMD SEV. Provide a new Kconfig entry the architecture can select, CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_RESTRICTED_VIRTIO_MEMORY_ACCESS, when it provides the arch_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access callback to advertise to VIRTIO common code when the architecture restricts memory access from the host. The common code can then fail the probe for any device where VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM is required, but not set.

2020-06-04virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hotunplug part 2David Hildenbrand1-0/+1
We also want to unplug online memory (contained in online memory blocks and, therefore, managed by the buddy), and eventually replug it later. When requested to unplug memory, we use alloc_contig_range() to allocate subblocks in online memory blocks (so we are the owner) and send them to our hypervisor. When requested to plug memory, we can replug such memory using free_contig_range() after asking our hypervisor. We also want to mark all allocated pages PG_offline, so nobody will touch them. To differentiate pages that were never onlined when onlining the memory block from pages allocated via alloc_contig_range(), we use PageDirty(). Based on this flag, virtio_mem_fake_online() can either online the pages for the first time or use free_contig_range(). It is worth noting that there are no guarantees on how much memory can actually get unplugged again. All device memory might completely be fragmented with unmovable data, such that no subblock can get unplugged. We are not touching the ZONE_MOVABLE. If memory is onlined to the ZONE_MOVABLE, it can only get unplugged after that memory was offlined manually by user space. In normal operation, virtio-mem memory is suggested to be onlined to ZONE_NORMAL. In the future, we will try to make unplug more likely to succeed. Add a module parameter to control if online memory shall be touched. As we want to access alloc_contig_range()/free_contig_range() from kernel module context, export the symbols. Note: Whenever virtio-mem uses alloc_contig_range(), all affected pages are on the same node, in the same zone, and contain no holes.

2020-06-04virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hotplugDavid Hildenbrand1-0/+16
Each virtio-mem device owns exactly one memory region. It is responsible for adding/removing memory from that memory region on request. When the device driver starts up, the requested amount of memory is queried and then plugged to Linux. On request, further memory can be plugged or unplugged. This patch only implements the plugging part. On x86-64, memory can currently be plugged in 4MB ("subblock") granularity. When required, a new memory block will be added (e.g., usually 128MB on x86-64) in order to plug more subblocks. Only x86-64 was tested for now. The online_page callback is used to keep unplugged subblocks offline when onlining memory - similar to the Hyper-V balloon driver. Unplugged pages are marked PG_offline, to tell dump tools (e.g., makedumpfile) to skip them. User space is usually responsible for onlining the added memory. The memory hotplug notifier is used to synchronize virtio-mem activity against memory onlining/offlining. Each virtio-mem device can belong to a NUMA node, which allows us to easily add/remove small chunks of memory to/from a specific NUMA node by using multiple virtio-mem devices. Something that works even when the guest has no idea about the NUMA topology. One way to view virtio-mem is as a "resizable DIMM" or a DIMM with many "sub-DIMMS". This patch directly introduces the basic infrastructure to implement memory unplug. Especially the memory block states and subblock bitmaps will be heavily used there. Notes: - In case memory is to be onlined by user space, we limit the amount of offline memory blocks, to not run out of memory. This is esp. an issue if memory is added faster than it is getting onlined. - Suspend/Hibernate is not supported due to the way virtio-mem devices behave. Limited support might be possible in the future. - Reloading the device driver is not supported.

2020-04-07virtio-balloon: add support for providing free page reports to hostAlexander Duyck1-0/+1
Add support for the page reporting feature provided by virtio-balloon. Reporting differs from the regular balloon functionality in that is is much less durable than a standard memory balloon. Instead of creating a list of pages that cannot be accessed the pages are only inaccessible while they are being indicated to the virtio interface. Once the interface has acknowledged them they are placed back into their respective free lists and are once again accessible by the guest system. Unlike a standard balloon we don't inflate and deflate the pages. Instead we perform the reporting, and once the reporting is completed it is assumed that the page has been dropped from the guest and will be faulted back in the next time the page is accessed.

This patch introduces a vDPA transport for virtio. This is used to use kernel virtio driver to drive the vDPA device that is capable of populating virtqueue directly. A new virtio-vdpa driver will be registered to the vDPA bus, when a new virtio-vdpa device is probed, it will register the device with vdpa based config ops. This means it is a software transport between vDPA driver and vDPA device. The transport was implemented through bus_ops of vDPA parent.

2020-04-01vDPA: introduce vDPA busJason Wang1-0/+2
vDPA device is a device that uses a datapath which complies with the virtio specifications with vendor specific control path. vDPA devices can be both physically located on the hardware or emulated by software. vDPA hardware devices are usually implemented through PCIE with the following types: - PF (Physical Function) - A single Physical Function - VF (Virtual Function) - Device that supports single root I/O virtualization (SR-IOV). Its Virtual Function (VF) represents a virtualized instance of the device that can be assigned to different partitions - ADI (Assignable Device Interface) and its equivalents - With technologies such as Intel Scalable IOV, a virtual device (VDEV) composed by host OS utilizing one or more ADIs. Or its equivalent like SF (Sub function) from Mellanox. >From a driver's perspective, depends on how and where the DMA translation is done, vDPA devices are split into two types: - Platform specific DMA translation - From the driver's perspective, the device can be used on a platform where device access to data in memory is limited and/or translated. An example is a PCIE vDPA whose DMA request was tagged via a bus (e.g PCIE) specific way. DMA translation and protection are done at PCIE bus IOMMU level. - Device specific DMA translation - The device implements DMA isolation and protection through its own logic. An example is a vDPA device which uses on-chip IOMMU. To hide the differences and complexity of the above types for a vDPA device/IOMMU options and in order to present a generic virtio device to the upper layer, a device agnostic framework is required. This patch introduces a software vDPA bus which abstracts the common attributes of vDPA device, vDPA bus driver and the communication method (vdpa_config_ops) between the vDPA device abstraction and the vDPA bus driver. This allows multiple types of drivers to be used for vDPA device like the virtio_vdpa and vhost_vdpa driver to operate on the bus and allow vDPA device could be used by either kernel virtio driver or userspace vhost drivers as: virtio drivers vhost drivers | | [virtio bus] [vhost uAPI] | | virtio device vhost device virtio_vdpa drv vhost_vdpa drv \ / [vDPA bus] | vDPA device hardware drv | [hardware bus] | vDPA hardware With the abstraction of vDPA bus and vDPA bus operations, the difference and complexity of the under layer hardware is hidden from upper layer. The vDPA bus drivers on top can use a unified vdpa_config_ops to control different types of vDPA device.

2019-07-06virtio-pmem: Add virtio pmem driverPankaj Gupta1-0/+11
This patch adds virtio-pmem driver for KVM guest. Guest reads the persistent memory range information from Qemu over VIRTIO and registers it on nvdimm_bus. It also creates a nd_region object with the persistent memory range information so that existing 'nvdimm/pmem' driver can reserve this into system memory map. This way 'virtio-pmem' driver uses existing functionality of pmem driver to register persistent memory compatible for DAX capable filesystems. This also provides function to perform guest flush over VIRTIO from 'pmem' driver when userspace performs flush on DAX memory range.

virtio_ring currently sends the device (usually a hypervisor) physical addresses of its I/O buffers. This is okay when DMA addresses and physical addresses are the same thing, but this isn't always the case. For example, this never works on Xen guests, and it is likely to fail if a physical "virtio" device ever ends up behind an IOMMU or swiotlb. The immediate use case for me is to enable virtio on Xen guests. For that to work, we need vring to support DMA address translation as well as a corresponding change to virtio_pci or to another driver.

2011-11-02virtio: Add platform bus driver for memory mapped virtio devicePawel Moll1-0/+11
This patch, based on virtio PCI driver, adds support for memory mapped (platform) virtio device. This should allow environments like qemu to use virtio-based block & network devices even on platforms without PCI support. One can define and register a platform device which resources will describe memory mapped control registers and "mailbox" interrupt. Such device can be also instantiated using the Device Tree node with compatible property equal "virtio,mmio".

2011-07-23virtio: expose for non-virtualization users tooOhad Ben-Cohen1-0/+3
virtio has been so far used only in the context of virtualization, and the virtio Kconfig was sourced directly by the relevant arch Kconfigs when VIRTUALIZATION was selected. Now that we start using virtio for inter-processor communications, we need to source the virtio Kconfig outside of the virtualization scope too. Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections. The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu. This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible (and neat!) for virtualization users now. Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.

2008-02-04virtio: balloon driverRusty Russell1-0/+10
After discussions with Anthony Liguori, it seems that the virtio balloon can be made even simpler. Here's my attempt. The device configuration tells the driver how much memory it should take from the guest (ie. balloon size). The guest feeds the page numbers it has taken via one virtqueue. A second virtqueue feeds the page numbers the driver wants back: if the device has the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST bit, then this queue is compulsory, otherwise it's advisory (and the guest can simply fault the pages back in). This driver can be enhanced later to deflate the balloon via a shrinker, oom callback or we could even go for a complete set of in-guest regulators.

2007-10-23Virtio helper routines for a descriptor ringbuffer implementationRusty Russell1-0/+5
These helper routines supply most of the virtqueue_ops for hypervisors which want to use a ring for virtio. Unlike the previous lguest implementation: 1) The rings are variable sized (2^n-1 elements). 2) They have an unfortunate limit of 65535 bytes per sg element. 3) The page numbers are always 64 bit (PAE anyone?) 4) They no longer place used[] on a separate page, just a separate cacheline. 5) We do a modulo on a variable. We could be tricky if we cared. 6) Interrupts and notifies are suppressed using flags within the rings. Users need only get the ring pages and provide a notify hook (KVM wants the guest to allocate the rings, lguest does it sanely).

2007-10-23Virtio interfaceRusty Russell1-0/+3
This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O mechanisms. It will no-doubt need further enhancement. The virtio drivers add buffers to virtio queues; as the buffers are consumed the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked. There is also a generic implementation of config space which drivers can query to get setup information from the host.
