Control VQ is the way net devices use to send changes to the device state, like
the number of active queues or its mac address.
QEMU needs to intercept this queue so it can track these changes and is able to
migrate the device. It can do it from 1576dbb5bbc4 ("vdpa: Add x-svq to
NetdevVhostVDPAOptions"). However, to enable x-svq implies to shadow all VirtIO
device's virtqueues, which will damage performance.
This series adds address space isolation, so the device and the guest
communicate directly with them (passthrough) and CVQ communication is split in
two: The guest communicates with QEMU and QEMU forwards the commands to the
device.
Comments are welcome. Thanks!
v5:
- Move vring state in vhost_vdpa_get_vring_group instead of using a
parameter.
- Rename VHOST_VDPA_NET_CVQ_PASSTHROUGH to VHOST_VDPA_NET_DATA_ASID
v4:
- Rebased on last CVQ start series, that allocated CVQ cmd bufs at load
- Squash vhost_vdpa_cvq_group_is_independent.
- Do not check for cvq index on vhost_vdpa_net_prepare, we only have one
that callback registered in that NetClientInfo.
- Add comment specifying behavior if device does not support _F_ASID
- Update headers to a later Linux commit to not to remove SETUP_RNG_SEED
v3:
- Do not return an error but just print a warning if vdpa device initialization
returns failure while getting AS num of VQ groups
- Delete extra newline
v2:
- Much as commented on series [1], handle vhost_net backend through
NetClientInfo callbacks instead of directly.
- Fix not freeing SVQ properly when device does not support CVQ
- Add BIT_ULL missed checking device's backend feature for _F_ASID.
Eugenio Pérez (6):
vdpa: Use v->shadow_vqs_enabled in vhost_vdpa_svqs_start & stop
vdpa: Allocate SVQ unconditionally
vdpa: Add asid parameter to vhost_vdpa_dma_map/unmap
vdpa: Store x-svq parameter in VhostVDPAState
vdpa: Add listener_shadow_vq to vhost_vdpa
vdpa: Always start CVQ in SVQ mode
