2019-02-05vfio-mdev: Switch to use new generic UUID APIAndy Shevchenko
There are new types and helpers that are supposed to be used in new code. As a preparation to get rid of legacy types and API functions do the conversion here.

2018-12-12vfio/mdev: add static modifier to add_mdev_supported_typePaolo Cretaro
Set add_mdev_supported_type as static since it is only used within mdev_sysfs.c. This fixes -Wmissing-prototypes gcc warning. Signed-off-by: Paolo Cretaro <paolocretaro@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
2018-06-08vfio/mdev: Re-order sysfs attribute creationAlex Williamson
There exists a gap at the end of mdev_device_create() where the device is visible to userspace, but we're not yet ready to handle removal, as triggered through the 'remove' attribute. We handle this properly in mdev_device_remove() with an -EAGAIN return, but we can marginally reduce this gap by adding this attribute as a final step of our sysfs setup.

2018-06-08vfio/mdev: Check globally for duplicate devicesAlex Williamson
When we create an mdev device, we check for duplicates against the parent device and return -EEXIST if found, but the mdev device namespace is global since we'll link all devices from the bus. We do catch this later in sysfs_do_create_link_sd() to return -EEXIST, but with it comes a kernel warning and stack trace for trying to create duplicate sysfs links, which makes it an undesirable response. Therefore we should really be looking for duplicates across all mdev parent devices, or as implemented here, against our mdev device list. Using mdev_list to prevent duplicates means that we can remove mdev_parent.lock, but in order not to serialize mdev device creation and removal globally, we add mdev_device.active which allows UUIDs to be reserved such that we can drop the mdev_list_lock before the mdev device is fully in place. Two behavioral notes; first, mdev_parent.lock had the side-effect of serializing mdev create and remove ops per parent device. This was an implementation detail, not an intentional guarantee provided to the mdev vendor drivers. Vendor drivers can trivially provide this serialization internally if necessary. Second, review comments note the new -EAGAIN behavior when the device, and in particular the remove attribute, becomes visible in sysfs. If a remove is triggered prior to completion of mdev_device_create() the user will see a -EAGAIN error. While the errno is different, receiving an error during this period is not, the previous implementation returned -ENODEV for the same condition. Furthermore, the consistency to the user is improved in the case where mdev_device_remove_ops() returns error. Previously concurrent calls to mdev_device_remove() could see the device disappear with -ENODEV and return in the case of error. Now a user would see -EAGAIN while the device is in this transitory state.

2017-02-08vfio/mdev: Use a module softdep for vfio_mdevAlex Williamson
Use an explicit module softdep rather than a request module call such that the dependency is exposed to userspace. This allows us to more easily support modules loaded at initrd time. Reviewed by: Kirti Wankhede <kwankhede@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>

2016-12-30vfio-mdev: Fix remove raceAlex Williamson
Using the mtty mdev sample driver we can generate a remove race by starting one shell that continuously creates mtty devices and several other shells all attempting to remove devices, in my case four remove shells. The fault occurs in mdev_remove_sysfs_files() where the passed type arg is NULL, which suggests we've received a struct device in mdev_device_remove() but it's in some sort of teardown state. The solution here is to make use of the accidentally unused list_head on the mdev_device such that the mdev core keeps a list of all the mdev devices. This allows us to validate that we have a valid mdev before we start removal, remove it from the list to prevent others from working on it, and if the vendor driver refuses to remove, we can re-add it to the list.

2016-11-17vfio: Mediated device Core driverKirti Wankhede
Design for Mediated Device Driver: Main purpose of this driver is to provide a common interface for mediated device management that can be used by different drivers of different devices. This module provides a generic interface to create the device, add it to mediated bus, add device to IOMMU group and then add it to vfio group. Below is the high Level block diagram, with Nvidia, Intel and IBM devices as example, since these are the devices which are going to actively use this module as of now. +---------------+ | | | +-----------+ | mdev_register_driver() +--------------+ | | | +<------------------------+ __init() | | | mdev | | | | | | bus | +------------------------>+ |<-> VFIO user | | driver | | probe()/remove() | vfio_mdev.ko | APIs | | | | | | | +-----------+ | +--------------+ | | | MDEV CORE | | MODULE | | mdev.ko | | +-----------+ | mdev_register_device() +--------------+ | | | +<------------------------+ | | | | | | nvidia.ko |<-> physical | | | +------------------------>+ | device | | | | callback +--------------+ | | Physical | | | | device | | mdev_register_device() +--------------+ | | interface | |<------------------------+ | | | | | | i915.ko |<-> physical | | | +------------------------>+ | device | | | | callback +--------------+ | | | | | | | | mdev_register_device() +--------------+ | | | +<------------------------+ | | | | | | ccw_device.ko|<-> physical | | | +------------------------>+ | device | | | | callback +--------------+ | +-----------+ | +---------------+ Core driver provides two types of registration interfaces: 1. Registration interface for mediated bus driver: /** * struct mdev_driver - Mediated device's driver * @name: driver name * @probe: called when new device created * @remove:called when device removed * @driver:device driver structure * **/ struct mdev_driver { const char *name; int (*probe) (struct device *dev); void (*remove) (struct device *dev); struct device_driver driver; }; Mediated bus driver for mdev device should use this interface to register and unregister with core driver respectively: int mdev_register_driver(struct mdev_driver *drv, struct module *owner); void mdev_unregister_driver(struct mdev_driver *drv); Mediated bus driver is responsible to add/delete mediated devices to/from VFIO group when devices are bound and unbound to the driver. 2. Physical device driver interface This interface provides vendor driver the set APIs to manage physical device related work in its driver. APIs are : * dev_attr_groups: attributes of the parent device. * mdev_attr_groups: attributes of the mediated device. * supported_type_groups: attributes to define supported type. This is mandatory field. * create: to allocate basic resources in vendor driver for a mediated device. This is mandatory to be provided by vendor driver. * remove: to free resources in vendor driver when mediated device is destroyed. This is mandatory to be provided by vendor driver. * open: open callback of mediated device * release: release callback of mediated device * read : read emulation callback. * write: write emulation callback. * ioctl: ioctl callback. * mmap: mmap emulation callback. Drivers should use these interfaces to register and unregister device to mdev core driver respectively: extern int mdev_register_device(struct device *dev, const struct parent_ops *ops); extern void mdev_unregister_device(struct device *dev); There are no locks to serialize above callbacks in mdev driver and vfio_mdev driver. If required, vendor driver can have locks to serialize above APIs in their driver.
