virtio: add context flag to find vqs

2017-05-02T20:41:43+00:00

Allows maintaining extra context per vq.  For ease of use, passing in
NULL is legal and disables the feature for all vqs.

Includes fixes by Christian for s390, acked by Cornelia.

virtio: wrap find_vqs

2017-05-02T20:41:42+00:00

We are going to add more parameters to find_vqs, let's wrap the call so
we don't need to tweak all drivers every time.

virtio: provide a method to get the IRQ affinity mask for a virtqueue

2017-02-27T18:54:05+00:00

This basically passed up the pci_irq_get_affinity information through
virtio through an optional get_vq_affinity method.  It is only implemented
by the PCI backend for now, and only when we use per-virtqueue IRQs.

virtio: allow drivers to request IRQ affinity when creating VQs

2017-02-27T18:54:04+00:00

Add a struct irq_affinity pointer to the find_vqs methods, which if set
is used to tell the PCI layer to create the MSI-X vectors for our I/O
virtqueues with the proper affinity from the start.  Compared to after
the fact affinity hints this gives us an instantly working setup and
allows to allocate the irq descritors node-local and avoid interconnect
traffic.  Last but not least this will allow blk-mq queues are created
based on the interrupt affinity for storage drivers.

virtio: new feature to detect IOMMU device quirk

2016-08-01T18:44:52+00:00

The interaction between virtio and IOMMUs is messy.

On most systems with virtio, physical addresses match bus addresses,
and it doesn't particularly matter which one we use to program
the device.

On some systems, including Xen and any system with a physical device
that speaks virtio behind a physical IOMMU, we must program the IOMMU
for virtio DMA to work at all.

On other systems, including SPARC and PPC64, virtio-pci devices are
enumerated as though they are behind an IOMMU, but the virtio host
ignores the IOMMU, so we must either pretend that the IOMMU isn't
there or somehow map everything as the identity.

Add a feature bit to detect that quirk: VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM.

Any device with this feature bit set to 0 needs a quirk and has to be
passed physical addresses (as opposed to bus addresses) even though
the device is behind an IOMMU.

Note: it has to be a per-device quirk because for example, there could
be a mix of passed-through and virtual virtio devices. As another
example, some devices could be implemented by an out of process
hypervisor backend (in case of qemu vhost, or vhost-user) and so support
for an IOMMU needs to be coded up separately.

It would be cleanest to handle this in IOMMU core code, but that needs
per-device DMA ops. While we are waiting for that to be implemented, use
a work-around in virtio core.

Note: a "noiommu" feature is a quirk - add a wrapper to make
that clear.

virtio: make find_vqs() checkpatch.pl-friendly

2016-01-12T18:47:06+00:00

checkpatch.pl wants arrays of strings declared as follows:

  static const char * const names[] = { "vq-1", "vq-2", "vq-3" };

Currently the find_vqs() function takes a const char *names[] argument
so passing checkpatch.pl's const char * const names[] results in a
compiler error due to losing the second const.

This patch adjusts the find_vqs() prototype and updates all virtio
transports.  This makes it possible for virtio_balloon.c, virtio_input.c,
virtgpu_kms.c, and virtio_rpmsg_bus.c to use the checkpatch.pl-friendly
type.

virtio: add explicit big-endian support to memory accessors

2015-06-01T13:48:54+00:00

The current memory accessors logic is:
- little endian if little_endian
- native endian (i.e. no byteswap) if !little_endian

If we want to fully support cross-endian vhost, we also need to be
able to convert to big endian.

Instead of changing the little_endian argument to some 3-value enum, this
patch changes the logic to:
- little endian if little_endian
- big endian if !little_endian

The native endian case is handled by all users with a trivial helper. This
patch doesn't change any functionality, nor it does add overhead.

virtio: drop a useless config read

2015-04-01T04:07:14+00:00

    "virtio: core support for config generation"
fixed reading up 64 bit values, adding generation
checks for such reads.

By mistake, it left an explicit get call in place
as well. the result is that the value is read twice,
the first result is discarded.

Not a big deal since this only happens with virtio
blk and only on boot ATM, so performance isn't
affected, but let's clean it up.

so width access wrapper helpers are all together.
