From 4374e1efa5a84f7d1c1bb310eb821b31c4670b93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean-Philippe Brucker Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2022 16:46:24 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] iommu/virtio: Fix interaction with VFIO Commit 559c1ab0746f ("vfio: Require that devices support DMA cache coherence") requires IOMMU drivers to advertise IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY, in order to be used by VFIO. Since VFIO does not provide to userspace the ability to maintain coherency through cache invalidations, it requires hardware coherency. Advertise the capability in order to restore VFIO support. The meaning of IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY also changed from "IOMMU can enforce cache coherent DMA transactions" to "IOMMU_CACHE is supported". While virtio-iommu cannot enforce coherency (of PCIe no-snoop transactions), it does support IOMMU_CACHE. We can distinguish different cases of non-coherent DMA: (1) When accesses from a hardware endpoint are not coherent. The host would describe such a device using firmware methods ('dma-coherent' in device-tree, '_CCA' in ACPI), since they are also needed without a vIOMMU. In this case mappings are created without IOMMU_CACHE. virtio-iommu doesn't need any additional support. It sends the same requests as for coherent devices. (2) When the physical IOMMU supports non-cacheable mappings. Supporting those would require a new feature in virtio-iommu, new PROBE request property and MAP flags. Device drivers would use a new API to discover this since it depends on the architecture and the physical IOMMU. (3) When the hardware supports PCIe no-snoop. It is possible for assigned PCIe devices to issue no-snoop transactions, and the virtio-iommu specification is lacking any mention of this. Arm platforms don't necessarily support no-snoop, and those that do cannot enforce coherency of no-snoop transactions. Device drivers must be careful about assuming that no-snoop transactions won't end up cached; see commit 4aa6118904ed ("drm: disable uncached DMA optimization for ARM and arm64"). On x86 platforms, the host may or may not enforce coherency of no-snoop transactions with the physical IOMMU. But according to the above commit, on x86 a driver which assumes that no-snoop DMA is compatible with uncached CPU mappings will also work if the host enforces coherency. Although these issues are not specific to virtio-iommu, it could be used to facilitate discovery and configuration of no-snoop. This would require a new feature bit, PROBE property and ATTACH/MAP flags.
