That can get ugly for userspace.Is not it exactly what sysfs is for (unlike /proc)? :)Um, I hope it's a little more thought out than /proc.On the other hand, for the application of userspace knowing how much memory to lock for vfio use of a group, it's an appealing location to get that information. Something like libvirt would already be poking around here to figure out which devices to bind. Page limits need to be setup prior to use through vfio, so sysfs is more convenient than through vfio ioctls.True. DMA window properties do not change since boot so sysfs is the right place to expose them.But then is dma-window-size just a vfio requirement leaking over into iommu groups? Can we allow iommu driver based attributes without giving up control of the namespace? Thanks,Who are you asking these questions? :)Anyone, including you. Rather than dropping misc files in sysfs to describe things about the group, I think the better solution in your case might be a link from the group to an existing sysfs directory describing the PE. I believe your PE is rooted in a PCI bridge, so that presumably already has a representation in sysfs. Can the aperture size be determined from something in sysfs for that bridge already? I'm just not ready to create a grab bag of sysfs entries for a group yet. Thanks,
At the moment there is no information neither in sysfs nor /proc/device-tree about the dma-window. And adding a sysfs entry per PE (powerpc partitionable end-point which is often a PHB but not always) just for VFIO is quite heavy.
We could add a ppc64 subfolder under /sys/kernel/iommu/xxx/ and put the "dma-window" property there. And replace it with a symlink when and if we add something for PE later. Would work?
