vhost: factor out IOTLB

2020-04-01T16:06:26+00:00

This patch factors out IOTLB into a dedicated module in order to be
reused by other modules like vringh. User may choose to enable the
automatic retiring by specifying VHOST_IOTLB_FLAG_RETIRE flag to fit
for the case of vhost device IOTLB implementation.

vhost: allow per device message handler

2020-04-01T16:06:26+00:00

This patch allow device to register its own message handler during
vhost_dev_init(). vDPA device will use it to implement its own DMA
mapping logic.

vhost: Check docket sk_family instead of call getname

2020-02-23T05:41:42+00:00

Doing so, we save one call to get data we already have in the struct.

Also, since there is no guarantee that getname use sockaddr_ll
parameter beyond its size, we add a little bit of security here.
It should do not do beyond MAX_ADDR_LEN, but syzbot found that
ax25_getname writes more (72 bytes, the size of full_sockaddr_ax25,
versus 20 + 32 bytes of sockaddr_ll + MAX_ADDR_LEN in syzbot repro).

compat_ioctl: move drivers to compat_ptr_ioctl

2019-10-23T15:23:43+00:00

Each of these drivers has a copy of the same trivial helper function to
convert the pointer argument and then call the native ioctl handler.

We now have a generic implementation of that, so use it.

vhost_net: disable zerocopy by default

2019-06-17T20:58:02+00:00

Vhost_net was known to suffer from HOL[1] issues which is not easy to
fix. Several downstream disable the feature by default. What's more,
the datapath was split and datacopy path got the support of batching
and XDP support recently which makes it faster than zerocopy part for
small packets transmission.

It looks to me that disable zerocopy by default is more
appropriate. It cold be enabled by default again in the future if we
fix the above issues.

vhost: rename vq_iotlb_prefetch() to vq_meta_prefetch()

2019-06-05T20:23:52+00:00

Rename the function to be more accurate since it actually tries to
prefetch vq metadata address in IOTLB. And this will be used by
following patch to prefetch metadata virtual addresses.
