[RFC PATCH] vhost: enable IOMMU_NOTIFIER_UNMAP events handling when device-iotlb=on
Posted by Viktor Prutyanov 1 year, 1 month ago
Even if Device-TLB and PCI ATS is enabled, the guest can reject to use
it. For example, this situation appears when Windows Server 2022 is
running with intel-iommu with device-iotlb=on and virtio-net-pci with
vhost=on. The guest implies that no address translation info cached in
device IOTLB and doesn't send device IOTLB invalidation commands. So,
it leads to irrelevant address translations in vhost-net in the host
kernel. Therefore network frames from the guest in host tap interface
contains wrong payload data.

This patch enables IOTLB unmap events (IOMMU_NOTIFIER_UNMAP) along with
Device-TLB unmap events (IOMMU_NOTIFIER_DEVIOTLB_UNMAP) handling for
proper vhost IOTLB unmapping when the guest isn't aware of Device-TLB.

This looks kind of tricky. E.g when ATS is enabled, there could be
unnecessary flues. Or at least it requires some comment to explain.

I think the correct fix is:

1) introduce a transport specific method for querying if it supports
device IOTLB
2) in the pci implementation hook it to some like pice_ats_enabled()
3) so we can decide if device IOTLB is enabled, go for DEVIOTLB_UNMAP
otherwise a simple UNMAP.

Thanks
