iommu: Introduce Shared Virtual Addressing API
hulk inclusion category: feature bugzilla: 14369 CVE: NA ------------------- Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) provides a way for device drivers to bind process address spaces to devices. This requires the IOMMU to support page table format and features compatible with the CPUs, and usually requires the system to support I/O Page Faults (IOPF) and Process Address Space ID (PASID). When all of these are available, DMA can access virtual addresses of a process. A PASID is allocated for each process, and the device driver programs it into the device in an implementation-specific way. Add a new API for sharing process page tables with devices. Introduce two IOMMU operations, sva_device_init() and sva_device_shutdown(), that prepare the IOMMU driver for SVA. For example allocate PASID tables and fault queues. Subsequent patches will implement the bind() and unbind() operations. Support for I/O Page Faults will be added in a later patch using a new feature bit (IOMMU_SVA_FEAT_IOPF). With the current API users must pin down all shared mappings. Other feature bits that may be added in the future are IOMMU_SVA_FEAT_PRIVATE, to support private PASID address spaces, and IOMMU_SVA_FEAT_NO_PASID, to bind the whole device address space to a process.
