Add VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA support for vDPA transport. If this feature is negotiated, the driver passes extra data when kicking a virtqueue. A device that offers this feature needs to implement the kick_vq_with_data callback. kick_vq_with_data receives the vDPA device and data. data includes the vqn, next_off and next_wrap for packed virtqueues. This patch follows a patch [1] by Viktor

Add VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA support for vDPA transport. If this feature is negotiated, the driver passes extra data when kicking a virtqueue. A device that offers this feature needs to implement the kick_vq_with_data callback. kick_vq_with_data receives the vDPA device and data. data includes: 16 bits vqn and 16 bits next available index for split virtqueues. 16 bits vqs, 15 least significant

This patch introduces a vDPA transport for virtio. This is used to use kernel virtio driver to drive the mediated device that is capable of populating virtqueue directly. A new virtio-vdpa driver will be registered to the vDPA bus, when a new virtio-vdpa device is probed, it will register the device with vdpa based config ops. This means it is a software transport between vDPA driver and vDPA

We normally expect vdpa to use the modern interface. However for consistency, let's use same APIs as vhost for legacy guests. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

Hi all: This is an update version of vDPA support in kernel. vDPA device is a device that uses a datapath which complies with the virtio specifications with vendor specific control path. vDPA devices can be both physically located on the hardware or emulated by software. vDPA hardware devices are usually implemented through PCIE with the following types: - PF (Physical Function) - A single

Hi all: This is an updated version of kernel support for vDPA device. Various changes were made based on the feedback since last verion. One major change is to drop the sysfs API and leave the management interface for future development, and introudce the incremental DMA bus operations. Please see changelog for more information. The work on vhost, IFCVF (intel VF driver for vDPA) and qemu is

Config space endian-ness is currently a mess: fields are not tagged with the correct endian-ness so it's easy to make mistakes like instanciating config space in native endian-ness. The following patches adding sparse tagging are currently in my tree. Lightly tested. As a follow-up, I plan to add new APIs that handle modern config space in a more efficient way (bypassing the version check).
