Commit Message

Eric Auger Aug. 29, 2019, 9:01 a.m. UTC 
We introduce a new IOMMU Memory Region attribute,
IOMMU_ATTR_NEED_HW_NESTED_PAGING that tells whether the
virtual IOMMU relies on physical IOMMU HW nested paging
capability when protecting host assigned devices.

Current Intel virtual IOMMU device supports "Caching
Mode" and does not require 2 stages at physical level to be
integrated with VFIO. However SMMUv3 does not implement such
"caching mode" and requires HW nested paging.

As such SMMUv3 is the first IOMMU device to advertise this
attribute.

This new attribute will allow the VFIO code to specialize
its handling.

v4 -> v5:
- patches 1, 4, 5 were upstreamed separately
- s/IOMMU_ATTR_HW_NESTED_PAGING/IOMMU_ATTR_NEED_HW_NESTED_PAGING

v3 -> v4:
- s/IOMMU_ATTR_VFIO_NESTED/IOMMU_ATTR_HW_NESTED_PAGING
- add comments related to the existing attributes
- fix space after the cast
