IOMMU container maintains a list of all pages pinned by vfio_pin_pages API.
All pages pinned by vendor driver through this API should be considered as
dirty during migration. When container consists of IOMMU capable device and
all pages are pinned and mapped, then all pages are marked dirty.
Added support to start/stop dirtied pages tracking and to get bitmap of all
dirtied pages for requested IO virtual address range.

Q: How does this interact with the two other operations? I imagine
getting an empty bitmap before _START
No, if dirty page tracking is not started, get_bitmap IOCTL will fail
with -EINVAL.
and a bitmap-in-progress between
_START and _STOP. > After _STOP, will subsequent calls always give the
same bitmap?
No, return -EINVAL.
User must provide data[] as the structure
+ * vfio_iommu_type1_dirty_bitmap_get through which user provides IOVA range and
+ * pgsize.
"The user must specify the IOVA range and the pgsize through the
vfio_iommu_type1_dirty_bitmap_get structure in the data[] portion."

This interface supports to get bitmap of smallest supported pgsize
+ * only and can be modified in future to get bitmap of specified pgsize.
That's a current restriction? How can the user find out whether it has
been lifted (or, more generally, find out which pgsize values are
supported)?
Migration capability is added to IOMMU info chain. That gives supported
pgsize bitmap by IOMMU driver.
+ * User must allocate memory for bitmap, zero the bitmap memory and set size
+ * of allocated memory in bitmap.size field.
"The user must provide a zeroed memory area for the bitmap memory and
specify its size in bitmap.size."

One bit is used to represent one

+ * in bitmap.pgsize field.
s/User/The user/
Is that the 'pgsize' the comment above talks about?
By specifying pgsize here user can ask for bitmap of specific pgsize.
Bit set in bitmap indicates page at that offset from
+ * iova is dirty.
"A bit set in the bitmap indicates that the page at that offset from
iova is dirty." ?

Does argz also include the size of the bitmap?
No.
