<title>virtio: acknowledge all features before access</title>

<content type='text'>
The feature negotiation was designed in a way that
makes it possible for devices to know which config
fields will be accessed by drivers.

This is broken since commit 404123c2db79 ("virtio: allow drivers to
validate features") with fallout in at least block and net.  We have a
partial work-around in commit 2f9a174f918e ("virtio: write back
F_VERSION_1 before validate") which at least lets devices find out which
format should config space have, but this is a partial fix: guests
should not access config space without acknowledging features since
otherwise we'll never be able to change the config space format.

To fix, split finalize_features from virtio_finalize_features and
call finalize_features with all feature bits before validation,
and then - if validation changed any bits - once again after.

Since virtio_finalize_features no longer writes out features
rename it to virtio_features_ok - since that is what it does:
checks that features are ok with the device.

As a side effect, this also reduces the amount of hypervisor accesses -
we now only acknowledge features once unless we are clearing any
features when validating (which is uncommon).

IRC I think that this was more or less always the intent in the spec but
unfortunately the way the spec is worded does not say this explicitly, I
plan to address this at the spec level, too.

This will enable cleanups down the road.
The idea is to disable cbs, then add "flush_queued_cbs" callback
as a parameter, this way drivers can flush any work
queued after callbacks have been disabled.

<title>virtio: write back F_VERSION_1 before validate</title>

The virtio specification virtio-v1.1-cs01 states: "Transitional devices
MUST detect Legacy drivers by detecting that VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 has not
been acknowledged by the driver."  This is exactly what QEMU as of 6.1
has done relying solely on VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 for detecting that.

However, the specification also says: "... the driver MAY read (but MUST
NOT write) the device-specific configuration fields to check that it can
support the device ..." before setting FEATURES_OK.

In that case, any transitional device relying solely on
VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 for detecting legacy drivers will return data in
legacy format.  In particular, this implies that it is in big endian
format for big endian guests. This naturally confuses the driver which
expects little endian in the modern mode.

It is probably a good idea to amend the spec to clarify that
VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 can only be relied on after the feature negotiation
is complete. Before validate callback existed, config space was only
read after FEATURES_OK. However, we already have two regressions, so
let's address this here as well.

The regressions affect the VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU feature of virtio-net and
the VIRTIO_BLK_F_BLK_SIZE feature of virtio-blk for BE guests when
virtio 1.0 is used on both sides. The latter renders virtio-blk unusable
with DASD backing, because things simply don't work with the default.
See Fixes tags for relevant commits.

For QEMU, we can work around the issue by writing out the feature bits
with VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 bit set.  We (ab)use the finalize_features
config op for this. This isn't enough to address all vhost devices since
these do not get the features until FEATURES_OK, however it looks like
the affected devices actually never handled the endianness for legacy
mode correctly, so at least that's not a regression.

No devices except virtio net and virtio blk seem to be affected.

Long term the right thing to do is to fix the hypervisors.

A recent change checking of_device_is_compatible on probe broke some
powerpc/pseries setups. Apparently there virtio devices do not have a
"compatible" property - they are matched by PCI vendor/device ids.

Let's just skip of_node setup but proceed with initialization like we
did previously.

 "Here is the big set of driver core patches for 5.15-rc1.

  These do change a number of different things across different
  subsystems, and because of that, there were 2 stable tags created that
  might have already come into your tree from different pulls that did
  the following

   - changed the bus remove callback to return void

   - sysfs iomem_get_mapping rework

  Other than those two things, there's only a few small things in here:

   - kernfs performance improvements for huge numbers of sysfs users at
     once

   - tiny api cleanups

   - other minor changes

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems, other than the before-mentioned merge issue"

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core patches for 5.15-rc1.

  These do change a number of different things across different
  subsystems, and because of that, there were 2 stable tags created that
  might have already come into your tree from different pulls that did
  the following

   - changed the bus remove callback to return void

   - sysfs iomem_get_mapping rework

  Other than those two things, there's only a few small things in here:

   - kernfs performance improvements for huge numbers of sysfs users at
     once

   - tiny api cleanups

   - other minor changes

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems, other than the before-mentioned merge issue"

VQs may be accessed to mark the device broken while they are
created/destroyed. Hence protect the access to the vqs list.
