Merge tag 'vfio-v6.1-rc1' of https://github.com/awilliam/linux-vfio
Pull VFIO updates from Alex Williamson:
- Prune private items from vfio_pci_core.h to a new internal header,
fix missed function rename, and refactor vfio-pci interrupt defines
(Jason Gunthorpe)
- Create consistent naming and handling of ioctls with a function per
ioctl for vfio-pci and vfio group handling, use proper type args
where available (Jason Gunthorpe)
- Implement a set of low power device feature ioctls allowing userspace
to make use of power states such as D3cold where supported (Abhishek
Sahu)
- Remove device counter on vfio groups, which had restricted the page
pinning interface to singleton groups to account for limitations in
the type1 IOMMU backend. Document usage as limited to emulated IOMMU
devices, ie. traditional mdev devices where this restriction is
consistent (Jason Gunthorpe)
- Correct function prefix in hisi_acc driver incurred during previous
refactoring (Shameer Kolothum)
- Correct typo and remove redundant warning triggers in vfio-fsl driver
(Christophe JAILLET)
- Introduce device level DMA dirty tracking uAPI and implementation in
the mlx5 variant driver (Yishai Hadas & Joao Martins)
- Move much of the vfio_device life cycle management into vfio core,
simplifying and avoiding duplication across drivers. This also
facilitates adding a struct device to vfio_device which begins the
introduction of device rather than group level user support and fills
a gap allowing userspace identify devices as vfio capable without
implicit knowledge of the driver (Kevin Tian & Yi Liu)
- Split vfio container handling to a separate file, creating a more
well defined API between the core and container code, masking IOMMU
backend implementation from the core, allowing for an easier future
transition to an iommufd based implementation of the same (Jason
Gunthorpe)
- Attempt to resolve race accessing the iommu_group for a device
between vfio releasing DMA ownership and removal of the device from
the IOMMU driver. Follow-up with support to allow vfio_group to exist
with NULL iommu_group pointer to support existing userspace use cases
of holding the group file open (Jason Gunthorpe)
- Fix error code and hi/lo register manipulation issues in the hisi_acc
variant driver, along with various code cleanups (Longfang Liu)
- Fix a prior regression in GVT-g group teardown, resulting in
unreleased resources (Jason Gunthorpe)
- A significant cleanup and simplification of the mdev interface,
consolidating much of the open coded per driver sysfs interface
support into the mdev core (Christoph Hellwig)
- Simplification of tracking and locking around vfio_groups that fall
out from previous refactoring (Jason Gunthorpe)
- Replace trivial open coded f_ops tests with new helper (Alex
Williamson)
