To add a bit of vendor flexibility with various virtio based devices,
allow the caller to specify a different DMA mask.  This adds a dma_mask
field to struct virtio_pci_modern_device.  If defined by the driver,
this mask will be used in a call to dma_set_mask_and_coherent() instead
of the traditional DMA_BIT_MASK(64).  This allows limiting the DMA space
on vendor devices with address limitations.

<title>virtio: allow caller to override device id in vp_modern</title>

To add a bit of vendor flexibility with various virtio based devices,
allow the caller to check for a different device id.  This adds a function
pointer field to struct virtio_pci_modern_device to specify an override
device id check.  If defined by the driver, this function will be called
to check that the PCI device is the vendor's expected device, and will
return the found device id to be stored in mdev-&gt;id.device.  This allows
vendors with alternative vendor device ids to use this library on their
own device BAR.

Note: A lot of the diff in this is simply indenting the existing code
into an else block.

<title>virtio_pci: Optimize virtio_pci_device structure size</title>

Improve the size of the virtio_pci_device structure, which is commonly
used to represent a virtio PCI device. A given virtio PCI device can
either of legacy type or modern type, with the
struct virtio_pci_legacy_device occupying 32 bytes and the
struct virtio_pci_modern_device occupying 88 bytes. Make them a union,
thereby save 32 bytes of memory as shown by the pahole tool. This
improvement is particularly beneficial when dealing with numerous
devices, as it helps conserve memory resources.

Before the modification, pahole tool reported the following:
struct virtio_pci_device {
[...]
        struct virtio_pci_legacy_device ldev;            /*   824    32 */
        /* --- cacheline 13 boundary (832 bytes) was 24 bytes ago --- */
        struct virtio_pci_modern_device mdev;            /*   856    88 */

        /* XXX last struct has 4 bytes of padding */
[...]
        /* size: 1056, cachelines: 17, members: 19 */
[...]
};

After the modification, pahole tool reported the following:
struct virtio_pci_device {
[...]
        union {
                struct virtio_pci_legacy_device ldev;    /*   824    32 */
                struct virtio_pci_modern_device mdev;    /*   824    88 */
        };                                               /*   824    88 */
[...]
	/* size: 1024, cachelines: 16, members: 18 */

Add VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA support for vDPA transport.
If this feature is negotiated, the driver passes extra data when kicking
a virtqueue.

A device that offers this feature needs to implement the
kick_vq_with_data callback.

kick_vq_with_data receives the vDPA device and data.
data includes:
16 bits vqn and 16 bits next available index for split virtqueues.
16 bits vqs, 15 least significant bits of next available index
and 1 bit next_wrap for packed virtqueues.

This patch follows a patch [1] by Viktor Prutyanov which adds support
for the MMIO, channel I/O and modern PCI transports.

According to VirtIO spec v1.2, VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA feature
indicates that the driver passes extra data along with the queue
notifications.

In a split queue case, the extra data is 16-bit available index. In a
packed queue case, the extra data is 1-bit wrap counter and 15-bit
available index.

Add support for this feature for MMIO, channel I/O and modern PCI
transports.

<title>virtio_ring: don't update event idx on get_buf</title>

<id>6c0b057cec5eade4c3afec3908821176931a9997</id>
<content type='text'>
In virtio_net, if we disable napi_tx, when we trigger a tx interrupt,
the vq-&gt;event_triggered will be set to true. It is then never reset
until we explicitly call virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed or
virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare.

If we disable the napi_tx, virtqueue_enable_cb* will only be called when
the tx ring is getting relatively empty.

Since event_triggered is true, VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT or
VRING_PACKED_EVENT_FLAG_DISABLE will not be set. As a result we update
vring_used_event(&amp;vq-&gt;split.vring) or vq-&gt;packed.vring.driver-&gt;off_wrap
every time we call virtqueue_get_buf_ctx. This causes more interrupts.

To summarize:
1) event_triggered was set to true in vring_interrupt()
2) after this nothing will happen in virtqueue_disable_cb() so
   VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT is not set in avail_flags_shadow
3) virtqueue_get_buf_ctx_split() will still think the cb is enabled
   and then it will publish a new event index

To fix:
update VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT or VRING_PACKED_EVENT_FLAG_DISABLE in
the vq when we call virtqueue_disable_cb even when event_triggered is
true.

Tested with iperf:
iperf3 tcp stream:
vm1 -----------------&gt; vm2
vm2 just receives tcp data stream from vm1, and sends acks to vm1,
there are many tx interrupts in vm2.
with the patch applied there are just a few tx interrupts.

v2-&gt;v3:
-update the interrupt disable flag even with the event_triggered is set,
-instead of checking whether event_triggered is set in
-virtqueue_get_buf_ctx_{packed/split}, will cause the drivers  which have
-not called virtqueue_{enable/disable}_cb to miss notifications.

v3-&gt;v4:
-remove change for
-"if (vq-&gt;packed.event_flags_shadow != VRING_PACKED_EVENT_FLAG_DISABLE)"
-in virtqueue_disable_cb_packed

Add eventfd for the vdpa callback so that user
can signal it directly instead of triggering the
callback. It will be used for vhost-vdpa case.
