[PATCH 0/4] vDPA: API for reporting IOVA range

Hi All:

This series introduces API for reporing IOVA range. This is a must for
userspace to work correclty:

- for the process that uses vhost-vDPA directly to properly allocate
  IOVA
- for VM(qemu), when vIOMMU is not enabled, fail early if GPA is out
  of range
- for VM(qemu), when vIOMMU is enabled, determine a valid guest
  address width

Please review.

Thanks

[PATCH 2/4] vdpa_sim: implement get_iova_range bus operation

This patch implements get_iova_range method for vdpa_sim. Since
vdpa_sim is a software device, simply advertise a [0ULL, ~0ULL] range.

[PATCH 4/4] vhost: vdpa: report iova range

This patch introduces a new ioctl for vhost-vdpa device that can
report the iova range by the device. For device that depends on
platform IOMMU, we fetch the iova range via DOMAIN_ATTR_GEOMETRY. For
devices that has its own DMA translation unit, we fetch it directly
from vDPA bus operation.

This is ambiguous. Is end in the range or just behind it?
How about first/last?

I guess you mean for a device.

However in absence of ths op, I don't see what is wrong with just
assuming device can access any address.

What about devices using an IOMMU for translation?
IOMMUs generally have a limited IOVA range too, right?

Why not just check if (ops->get_iova_range) directly?

Exactly my point:

include/linux/mm_types.h:       unsigned long vm_end;           /* The first
byte after our end address

in this case Jason wants it to be the last byte, not one behind.

For qemu, when qemu will fail the vDPA device creation when:

1) vIOMMU is not enabled and GPA is out of this range
2) vIOMMU is enabled but it can't report such range to guest

For other userspace application, it will know it can only use this range 
as its IOVA.

Ok, I somehow recall the reason :)

See:

struct iommu_domain_geometry {
 ??? dma_addr_t aperture_start; /* First address that can be mapped??? */
 ??? dma_addr_t aperture_end;?? /* Last address that can be mapped???? */
 ??? bool force_aperture;?????? /* DMA only allowed in mappable range? */
};


So what I proposed here is to be consistent with it.

Size has a bunch of issues: can overlap, can not cover the entire 64 bit
range. The requisite checks are arguably easier to get wrong than
getting the size if you need it.

Yes, so do you still prefer first/last or just begin/end which is 
consistent with iommu_domain_geometry?
