VMCI: fix reference to ioctl-number.rst

There has never been an ioctl-number.h — this must have been a typo
for ioctl-number.txt (which later become ioctl-number.rst).

At the time this comment was written, the note didn't actually end up
appearing anywhere, but I fixed the omission from ioctl-number.rst in
0a8e4dc1d353 ("Documentation: ioctl: document 0x07 ioctl code").

VMCI: remove unused ioctl definitions

IOCTL_VMCI_SOCKETS_VERSION and IOCTL_VMCI_SOCKETS_GET_AF_VALUE were
never implemented, because VSOCK ended up being implemented as a
generic mechanism with a static AF value. Likewise,
IOCTL_VMCI_SOCKETS_GET_LOCAL_CID ended up being implemented as
IOCTL_VM_SOCKETS_GET_LOCAL_CID.

This isn't a UAPI header, so it should be fine to remove the unused
values. I've left a comment noting IOCTL_VM_SOCKETS_GET_LOCAL_CID is
in the VMCI range to avoid unintentional reuse.

VMCI: dma dg: add support for DMA datagrams sends

Use DMA based send operation from the transmit buffer instead of the
iowrite8_rep based datagram send when DMA datagrams are supported.

The outgoing datagram is sent as inline data in the VMCI transmit
buffer. Once the header has been configured, the send is initiated
by writing the lower 32 bit of the buffer base address to the
VMCI_DATA_OUT_LOW_ADDR register. Only then will the device process
the header and the datagram itself. Following that, the driver busy
waits (it isn't possible to sleep on the send path) for the header
busy flag to change - indicating that the send is complete.

If MMIO access is supported, map the area of the region used for

Add wrapper functions for accessing 32 bit register accesses through
either MMIO or IO ports based on device configuration.

Sending and receiving datagrams through iowrite8_rep/ioread8_rep is
left unchanged for now, and will be addressed in a later change.

VMCI: Enforce queuepair max size for IOCTL_VMCI_QUEUEPAIR_ALLOC

When create the VMCI queue pair tracking data structures on the host
side, the IOCTL for creating the VMCI queue pair didn't validate
the queue pair size parameters. This change adds checks for this.

This avoids a memory allocation issue in qp_host_alloc_queue, as
reported by [email protected]. The check in qp_host_alloc_queue
has also been updated to enforce the maximum queue pair size
as defined by VMCI_MAX_GUEST_QP_MEMORY.

The fix has been verified using sample code supplied by
[email protected].

VMCI: Fix integer overflow in VMCI handle arrays

The VMCI handle array has an integer overflow in
vmci_handle_arr_append_entry when it tries to expand the array. This can be
triggered from a guest, since the doorbell link hypercall doesn't impose a
limit on the number of doorbell handles that a VM can create in the
hypervisor, and these handles are stored in a handle array.

In this change, we introduce a mandatory max capacity for handle
arrays/lists to avoid excessive memory usage.

whatever broken there was (it's not endian-safe for starters, and also

VMCI: Use 32bit atomics for queue headers on X86_32

This change restricts the reading and setting of the head and tail
pointers on 32bit X86 to 32bit for both correctness and
performance reasons. On uniprocessor X86_32, the atomic64_read
may be implemented as a non-locked cmpxchg8b. This may result in
updates to the pointers done by the VMCI device being overwritten.
On MP systems, there is no such correctness issue, but using 32bit
atomics avoids the overhead of the locked 64bit operation. All this
is safe because the queue size on 32bit systems will never exceed
a 32bit value.
