iommu/process: Bind and unbind process to and from devices
ascend inclusion category: feature bugzilla: 14369 CVE: NA -------------- commit https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/822424/ Add bind and unbind operations to the IOMMU API. Device drivers can use them to share process page tables with their device. iommu_process_bind_group is provided for VFIO's convenience, as it needs to provide a coherent interface on containers. Device drivers will most likely want to use iommu_process_bind_device, which doesn't bind the whole group. PASIDs are de facto shared between all devices in a group (because of hardware weaknesses), but we don't do anything about it at the API level. Making bind_device call bind_group is probably the wrong way around, because it requires more work on our side for no benefit. We'd have to replay all binds each time a device is hotplugged into a group. But when a device is hotplugged into a group, the device driver will have to do a bind before using its PASID anyway and we can reject inconsistencies at that point. Concurrent calls to iommu_process_bind_device for the same process are not supported at the moment (they'll race on process_alloc which will only succeed for the first one; the others will have to retry the bind). I also don't support calling bind() on a dying process, not sure if it matters.
