When IOMMU and vhost are enabled together, QEMU tracks IOTLB or
Device-TLB unmap events depending on whether Device-TLB is enabled. But
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 series adds checking of ATS state for proper unmap flag register
(IOMMU_NOTIFIER_UNMAP or IOMMU_NOTIFIER_DEVIOTLB_UNMAP).
Tested on Windows Server 2022, Windows 11 and Fedora guests with
-device virtio-net-pci,bus=pci.3,netdev=nd0,iommu_platform=on,ats=on
-netdev tap,id=nd0,ifname=tap1,script=no,downscript=no,vhost=on
-device intel-iommu,intremap=on,eim=on,device-iotlb=on/off
Tested on Fedora guest with
-device virtio-iommu
Buglink: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2001312
v4: call vhost_toggle_device_iotlb regardless of vhost backend,
move vhost_started check to generic part
v3: call virtio_pci_ats_ctrl_trigger directly, remove
IOMMU_NOTIFIER_UNMAP fallbacks
v2: remove memory_region_iommu_notify_flags_changed, move trigger to
VirtioDeviceClass, use vhost_ops, use device_iotlb name
Viktor Prutyanov (2):
vhost: register and change IOMMU flag depending on Device-TLB state
virtio-net: pass Device-TLB enable/disable events to vhost
