6c7f98b3 - vfio/mdev: Remove vfio_mdev.c

Mon, 11 Apr 2022 14:13:59 +0000

vfio/mdev: Remove vfio_mdev.cNow that all mdev drivers directly create their own mdev_device driver anddirectly register with the vfio core's vfio_device_ops this is all deadcode.Delete vfio_mdev.c and the mdev_parent_ops members that are connected toit.Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Zhi Wang Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20220411141403.86980-31-hch@lst.deReviewed-by: Kirti Wankhede Reviewed-by: Zhi Wang List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/vfio/mdev/Makefile

af3ab3f9 - vfio/mdev: Remove CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV_DEVICE

Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:22:14 +0000

vfio/mdev: Remove CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV_DEVICEFor some reason the vfio_mdev shim mdev_driver has its own module andkconfig. As the next patch requires access to it from mdev.ko merge thetwo modules together and remove VFIO_MDEV_DEVICE.A later patch deletes this driver entirely.Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Cornelia Huck Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Reviewed-by: Kirti Wankhede Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210617142218.1877096-7-hch@lst.deSigned-off-by: Alex Williamson List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/vfio/mdev/Makefile

vfio: VFIO based driver for Mediated devicesvfio_mdev driver registers with mdev core driver.mdev core driver creates mediated device and calls probe routine ofvfio_mdev driver for each device.Probe routine of vfio_mdev driver adds mediated device to VFIO core moduleThis driver forms a shim layer that pass through VFIO devices operationsto vendor driver for mediated devices.Signed-off-by: Kirti Wankhede Signed-off-by: Neo Jia Reviewed-by: Jike Song Reviewed-by: Dong Jia Shi Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/vfio/mdev/Makefile

7b96953b - vfio: Mediated device Core driver

Wed, 16 Nov 2016 20:46:13 +0000

vfio: Mediated device Core driverDesign for Mediated Device Driver:Main purpose of this driver is to provide a common interface for mediateddevice management that can be used by different drivers of differentdevices.This module provides a generic interface to create the device, add it tomediated bus, add device to IOMMU group and then add it to vfio group.Below is the high Level block diagram, with Nvidia, Intel and IBM devicesas example, since these are the devices which are going to actively usethis module as of now. +---------------+ | | | +-----------+ | mdev_register_driver() +--------------+ | | | +<------------------------+ __init() | | | mdev | | | | | | bus | +------------------------>+ |<-> VFIO user | | driver | | probe()/remove() | vfio_mdev.ko | APIs | | | | | | | +-----------+ | +--------------+ | | | MDEV CORE | | MODULE | | mdev.ko | | +-----------+ | mdev_register_device() +--------------+ | | | +<------------------------+ | | | | | | nvidia.ko |<-> physical | | | +------------------------>+ | device | | | | callback +--------------+ | | Physical | | | | device | | mdev_register_device() +--------------+ | | interface | |<------------------------+ | | | | | | i915.ko |<-> physical | | | +------------------------>+ | device | | | | callback +--------------+ | | | | | | | | mdev_register_device() +--------------+ | | | +<------------------------+ | | | | | | ccw_device.ko|<-> physical | | | +------------------------>+ | device | | | | callback +--------------+ | +-----------+ | +---------------+Core driver provides two types of registration interfaces:1. Registration interface for mediated bus driver:/** * struct mdev_driver - Mediated device's driver * @name: driver name * @probe: called when new device created * @remove:called when device removed * @driver:device driver structure * **/struct mdev_driver { const char *name; int (*probe) (struct device *dev); void (*remove) (struct device *dev); struct device_driver driver;};Mediated bus driver for mdev device should use this interface to registerand unregister with core driver respectively:int mdev_register_driver(struct mdev_driver *drv, struct module *owner);void mdev_unregister_driver(struct mdev_driver *drv);Mediated bus driver is responsible to add/delete mediated devices to/fromVFIO group when devices are bound and unbound to the driver.2. Physical device driver interfaceThis interface provides vendor driver the set APIs to manage physicaldevice related work in its driver. APIs are :* dev_attr_groups: attributes of the parent device.* mdev_attr_groups: attributes of the mediated device.* supported_type_groups: attributes to define supported type. This is mandatory field.* create: to allocate basic resources in vendor driver for a mediated device. This is mandatory to be provided by vendor driver.* remove: to free resources in vendor driver when mediated device is destroyed. This is mandatory to be provided by vendor driver.* open: open callback of mediated device* release: release callback of mediated device* read : read emulation callback.* write: write emulation callback.* ioctl: ioctl callback.* mmap: mmap emulation callback.Drivers should use these interfaces to register and unregister device tomdev core driver respectively:extern int mdev_register_device(struct device *dev, const struct parent_ops *ops);extern void mdev_unregister_device(struct device *dev);There are no locks to serialize above callbacks in mdev driver andvfio_mdev driver. If required, vendor driver can have locks to serializeabove APIs in their driver.Signed-off-by: Kirti Wankhede Signed-off-by: Neo Jia Reviewed-by: Jike Song Reviewed-by: Dong Jia Shi Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/vfio/mdev/Makefile
