Hi All, This patch series introduces initial support for a user-creatable accelerated SMMUv3 device (-device arm-smmuv3-accel) in QEMU.
Why this is needed: Currently, QEMU’s ARM SMMUv3 emulation (iommu=smmuv3) is tied to the machine and does not support configuring the host SMMUv3 in nested mode.This limitation prevents its use with vfio-pci passthrough devices. The new pluggable smmuv3-accel device enables host SMMUv3 configuration with nested stage support (Stage 1 owned by the Guest and Stage 2 by the host) via the new IOMMUFD APIs. Additionally, it allows multiple accelerated vSMMUv3 instances for guests running on hosts with multiple physical SMMUv3s. This will benefit in: -Reduced invalidation broadcasts and lookups for devices behind multiple physical SMMUv3s. -Simplifies handling of host SMMUv3s with differing feature sets. -Lays the groundwork for additional capabilities like vCMDQ support. Changes from RFCv1[0]: Thanks to everyone who provided feedback on RFCv1!. –The device is now called arm-smmuv3-accel instead of arm-smmuv3-nested to better reflect its role in using the host's physical SMMUv3 for page table setup and cache invalidations. -Includes patches for VIOMMU and VDEVICE IOMMUFD APIs (patches 1,2). -Merges patches from Nicolin’s GitHub repository that add accelerated functionalityi for page table setup and cache invalidations[1]. I have modified these a bit, but hopefully has not broken anything. -Incorporates various fixes and improvements based on RFCv1 feedback. –Adds support for vfio-pci hotplug with smmuv3-accel. Note: IORT RMR patches for MSI setup are currently excluded as we may adopt a different approach for MSI handling in the future [2]. Also this has dependency on the common iommufd/vfio patches from Zhenzhong's series here[3] ToDos: –At least one vfio-pci device must currently be cold-plugged to a pxb-pcie bus associated with the arm-smmuv3-accel. This is required both to associate a vSMMUv3 with a host SMMUv3 and also needed to retrieve the host SMMUv3 IDR registers for guest export. Future updates will remove this restriction by adding the necessary kernel support. Please find the discussion here[4] -This version does not yet support host SMMUv3 fault handling or other event notifications. These will be addressed in a future patch series. The complete branch can be found here: https://github.com/hisilicon/qemu/tree/master-smmuv3-accel-rfcv2-ext I have done basic sanity testing on a Hisilicon Platform using the kernel branch here: https://github.com/nicolinc/iommufd/tree/iommufd_msi-rfcv2 Usage Eg: On a HiSilicon platform that has multiple host SMMUv3s, the ACC ZIP VF devices and HNS VF devices are behind different host SMMUv3s.
