This patch series adds support for vq descriptor table mappings which are used to improve vdpa live migration downtime. The improvement comes from using smaller mappings which take less time to create and destroy in hw.
The first part adds the vdpa core changes from Si-Wei [0]. The second part adds support in mlx5_vdpa: - Refactor the mr code to be able to cleanly add descriptor mappings. - Add hardware descriptor mr support. - Properly update iotlb for cvq during ASID switch. Changes in v3: - dup_iotlb now checks for src == dst case and returns an error. - Renamed iotlb parameter in dup_iotlb to dst. - Removed a redundant check of the asid value. - Fixed a commit message. - mx5_ifc.h patch has been applied to mlx5-vhost tree. When applying this series please pull from that tree first. Changes in v2: - The "vdpa/mlx5: Enable hw support for vq descriptor mapping" change was split off into two patches to avoid merge conflicts into the tree of Linus. The first patch contains only changes for mlx5_ifc.h. This must be applied into the mlx5-vdpa tree [1] first. Once this patch is applied on mlx5-vdpa, the change has to be pulled fom mlx5-vdpa into the vhost tree and only then the remaining patches can be applied.
