Joao Martins July 19, 2024, 12:04 p.m. UTC
This small series adds support for IOMMU dirty tracking support via the
IOMMUFD backend. The hardware capability is available on most recent x86
hardware. The series is divided organized as follows:

* Patch 1-2: Fixes a regression into mdev support with IOMMUFD. This
             one is independent of the series but happened to cross it
             while testing mdev with this series

* Patch 3: Adds a support to iommufd_get_device_info() for capabilities

* Patches 4 - 11: IOMMUFD backend support for dirty tracking;

Introduce auto domains -- Patch 5 goes into more detail, but the gist is that
we will find and attach a device to a compatible IOMMU domain, or allocate a new
hardware pagetable *or* rely on kernel IOAS attach (for mdevs). Afterwards the
workflow is relatively simple:

1) Probe device and allow dirty tracking in the HWPT
2) Toggling dirty tracking on/off
3) Read-and-clear of Dirty IOVAs

The heuristics selected for (1) were to always request the HWPT for
dirty tracking if supported, or rely on device dirty page tracking. This
is a little simplistic and we aren't necessarily utilizing IOMMU dirty
tracking even if we ask during hwpt allocation.

The unmap case is deferred until further vIOMMU support with migration
is added[3] which will then introduce the usage of
IOMMU_HWPT_GET_DIRTY_BITMAP_NO_CLEAR in GET_DIRTY_BITMAP ioctl in the
dma unmap bitmap flow.

* Patches 12-13: Don't block live migration where there's no VF dirty
tracker, considering that we have IOMMU dirty tracking.

Comments and feedback appreciated. Thanks for the review so far and
apologies in advance if I missed any comment.

Cheers,
    Joao

P.S. Suggest linux-next (or future v6.11) as hypervisor kernel as there's
some bugs fixed there with regards to IOMMU hugepage dirty tracking.

Changes since v4[6]:
* Add various Reviewed-by in patches 2,3,4,6,8,11
* Change error messages to mention IOMMU (Zhenzhong)
* Better improve the checking of dirty page tracking in
  vfio_migration_realize() to detect per-device IOMMU instead of using
  container dirty_page_supported().
* Improve/Cleanup various commit messages to be clear (Eric)
* Extract the caps::hw_caps into its own patch as it was miosleading to
be hidden in another patch (new patch 7)
* Restructure patch 1 helper to be vfio_device_is_mdev() and use
vfio::mdev directly in rest of patches (Cedric)
* Improve error messages of set,query dirty tracking (Cedric)
* Add missing casts to uintptr and uint64_t* (Cedric)
* Improve terciary check in set_dirty_Tracking (Cedric)
* Add missing commens to struct doc from aw_bits removal (and hw_caps
addition) (Eric)
* Fix the detach flow in auto domains (Eric)
* Add new helper vfio_device_hiod_realize() and use it in backends
* (Cedric)
* Move introduction of iommufd_hwpt_dirty_tracking() in the predecessor
* patch (Cedric)
* Set hwpt to NULL on detach (Eric)
* Spurious line (Eric)

Changes since v3[5]:
* Skip HostIOMMUDevice::realize for mdev, and introduce a helper to check if the VFIO
  device is mdev. (Zhenzhong)
* Skip setting IOMMU device for mdev (Zhenzhong)
* Add Zhenzhong review tag in patch 3
* Utilize vbasedev::bcontainer::dirty_pages_supported instead of introducing
  a new HostIOMMUDevice capability and thus remove the cap patch from the series (Zhenzhong)
* Move the HostIOMMUDevice::realize() to be part of VFIODevice initialization in attach_device()
while skipping it all together for mdev. (Cedric)
* Due to the previous item, had to remove aw_bits because it depends on device attach being
finished, instead defer it to when get_cap() gets called.
* Skip auto domains for mdev instead of purposedly erroring out (Zhenzhong)
* Pass errp in all cases, and instead just free the error in case of -EINVAL
  in most of all patches, and also pass Error* in iommufd_backend_alloc_hwpt() amd
  set/query dirty. This is made better thanks in part to skipping auto domains for mdev (Cedric)

Changes since RFCv2[4]:
* Always allocate hwpt with IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC_DIRTY_TRACKING even if
we end up not actually toggling dirty tracking. (Avihai)
* Fix error handling widely in auto domains logic and all patches (Avihai)
* Reuse iommufd_backend_get_device_info() for capabilities (Zhenzhong)
* New patches 1 and 2 taking into consideration previous comments.
* Store hwpt::flags to know if we have dirty tracking (Avihai)
* New patch 8, that allows to query dirty tracking support after
provisioning. This is a cleaner way to check IOMMU dirty tracking support
when vfio::migration is iniitalized, as opposed to RFCv2 via device caps.
device caps way is still used because at vfio attach we aren't yet with
a fully initialized migration state.
* Adopt error propagation in query,set dirty tracking
* Misc improvements overall broadly and Avihai
* Drop hugepages as it's a bit unrelated; I can pursue that patch
* separately. The main motivation is to provide a way to test
without hugepages similar to what vfio_type1_iommu.disable_hugepages=1
does.

Changes since RFCv1[2]:
* Remove intel/amd dirty tracking emulation enabling
* Remove the dirtyrate improvement for VF/IOMMU dirty tracking
[Will pursue these two in separate series]
* Introduce auto domains support
* Enforce dirty tracking following the IOMMUFD UAPI for this
* Add support for toggling hugepages in IOMMUFD
* Auto enable support when VF supports migration to use IOMMU
when it doesn't have VF dirty tracking
* Add a parameter to toggle VF dirty tracking

A couple notes with respect to this series:

- The first 2 patches I think are needed because it addresses a regression

- This paragraph is meant to state that this doesn't support vIOMMU, and so I
haven't changed in that area. I am assuming that when the vIOMMU will get resent
for 9.2 where I would address the IOMMUFD counterpart.

In case this be merged, the next Qemu stages after this series are:

1) Mixed mode of VF with IOMMUFD dirty tracking
2) vIOMMU support (with the relaxing vIOMMU patch and IOMMUFD support)

It's not listed in terms of priority, just wanted to make it obvious on the gaps
that are on my list.

> * Improve/Cleanup various commit messages to be clear (Eric)
> * Extract the caps::hw_caps into its own patch as it was miosleading to

> * Improve error messages of set,query dirty tracking (Cedric)
> * Add missing casts to uintptr and uint64_t* (Cedric)
> * Improve terciary check in set_dirty_Tracking (Cedric)
> * Add missing commens to struct doc from aw_bits removal (and hw_caps
> addition) (Eric)
> * Fix the detach flow in auto domains (Eric)

> * Set hwpt to NULL on detach (Eric)

>    device is mdev. (Zhenzhong)
> * Skip setting IOMMU device for mdev (Zhenzhong)
> * Add Zhenzhong review tag in patch 3
> * Utilize vbasedev::bcontainer::dirty_pages_supported instead of introducing
>    a new HostIOMMUDevice capability and thus remove the cap patch from the series (Zhenzhong)
> * Move the HostIOMMUDevice::realize() to be part of VFIODevice initialization in attach_device()
> while skipping it all together for mdev. (Cedric)
> * Due to the previous item, had to remove aw_bits because it depends on device attach being

> * Skip auto domains for mdev instead of purposedly erroring out (Zhenzhong)
> * Pass errp in all cases, and instead just free the error in case of -EINVAL
>    in most of all patches, and also pass Error* in iommufd_backend_alloc_hwpt() amd
>    set/query dirty. This is made better thanks in part to skipping auto domains for mdev (Cedric)

> Changes since RFCv2[4]:

> * Fix error handling widely in auto domains logic and all patches (Avihai)
> * Reuse iommufd_backend_get_device_info() for capabilities (Zhenzhong)
> * New patches 1 and 2 taking into consideration previous comments.
> * Store hwpt::flags to know if we have dirty tracking (Avihai)
> * New patch 8, that allows to query dirty tracking support after
> provisioning. This is a cleaner way to check IOMMU dirty tracking support
> when vfio::migration is iniitalized, as opposed to RFCv2 via device caps.
> device caps way is still used because at vfio attach we aren't yet with
> a fully initialized migration state.
> * Adopt error propagation in query,set dirty tracking
> * Misc improvements overall broadly and Avihai
> * Drop hugepages as it's a bit unrelated; I can pursue that patch
> * separately. The main motivation is to provide a way to test

> 
> Changes since RFCv1[2]:
> * Remove intel/amd dirty tracking emulation enabling
> * Remove the dirtyrate improvement for VF/IOMMU dirty tracking
> [Will pursue these two in separate series]
> * Introduce auto domains support
> * Enforce dirty tracking following the IOMMUFD UAPI for this
> * Add support for toggling hugepages in IOMMUFD
> * Auto enable support when VF supports migration to use IOMMU
> when it doesn't have VF dirty tracking
> * Add a parameter to toggle VF dirty tracking

Applied 1-4 to vfio-next.

Still looking at the rest. We have ~24h for the last reviews.

Thanks,
