This series adds basic support for message-based DMA in qemu's vfio-user server. This is useful for cases where the client does not provide file descriptors for accessing system memory via memory mappings. My motivating use case is to hook up device models as PCIe endpoints to a hardware design. This works by bridging the PCIe transaction layer to vfio-user, and the endpoint does not access memory directly, but sends memory requests TLPs to the hardware design in order to perform DMA. Note that more work is needed to make message-based DMA work well: qemu currently breaks down DMA accesses into chunks of size 8 bytes at maximum, each of which will be handled in a separate vfio-user DMA request message. This is quite terrible for large DMA accesses, such as when nvme reads and writes page-sized blocks for example. Thus, I would like to improve qemu to be able to perform larger accesses, at least for indirect memory regions. I have something working locally, but since this will likely result in more involved surgery and discussion, I am leaving this to be addressed in a separate patch. Changes from v1: * Address Stefan's review comments. In particular, enforce an allocation limit and don't drop the map client callbacks given that map requests can fail when hitting size limits. * libvfio-user version bump now included in the series. * Tested as well on big-endian s390x. This uncovered another byte order issue in vfio-user server code that I've included a fix for. Changes from v2: * Add a preparatory patch to make bounce buffering an AddressSpace-specific concept. * The total buffer size limit parameter is now per AdressSpace and can be configured for PCIDevice via a property. * Store a magic value in first bytes of bounce buffer struct as a best effort measure to detect invalid pointers in address_space_unmap. Changes from v3: * libvfio-user now supports twin-socket mode which uses separate sockets for client->server and server->client commands, respectively. This addresses the concurrent command bug triggered by server->client DMA access commands. See https://github.com/nutanix/libvfio-user/issues/279 for details. * Add missing teardown code in do_address_space_destroy. * Fix bounce buffer size bookkeeping race condition. * Generate unmap notification callbacks unconditionally. * Some cosmetic fixes. Changes from v4: * Fix accidentally dropped memory_region_unref, control flow restored to match previous code to simplify review. * Some cosmetic fixes. Changes from v5: * Unregister indirect memory region in libvfio-user dma_unregister callback. Changes from v6: * Rebase, resolve straightforward merge conflict in system/dma-helpers.c Changes from v7: * Rebase (applied cleanly) * Restore various Reviewed-by and Tested-by tags that I failed to carry forward (I double-checked that the patches haven't changed since the reviewed version) Changes from v8: * Rebase (clean) * Change bounce buffer size accounting to use uint32_t so it works also on hosts that don't support uint64_t atomics, such as mipsel. As a consequence overflows are a real concern now, so switch to a cmpxchg loop for allocating bounce buffer space. Changes from v9: * Incorporate patch split and QEMU_MUTEX_GUARD change by philmd@linaro.org * Use size_t instead of uint32_t for bounce buffer size accounting. The qdev property remains uint32_t though, so it has a consistent size regardless of host. Changes from v10: * Update the commit to uprev the libvfio-user subproject to the latest libvfio-user revision. * Break out the "softmmu: Support concurrent bounce buffers" patch so this series only touches vfio-user code and can be picked up as is by Jag.

Wire up support for DMA for the case where the vfio-user client does not provide mmap()-able file descriptors, but DMA requests must be performed via the VFIO-user protocol. This installs an indirect memory region, which already works for pci_dma_{read,write}, and pci_dma_map works thanks to the existing DMA bounce buffering support. Note that while simple scenarios work with this patch, there's a known race condition in libvfio-user that will mess up the communication channel. See https://github.com/nutanix/libvfio-user/issues/279 for details as well as a proposed fix.

The memory regions created for DMA regions where leaking the original reference the object is initialized with. This happened since we insert the memory region as a subregion, but don't keep the reference obtained when creating the object. Thus, drop the reference after inserting the DMA memory region into the address space. This fixes auto-shutdown behavior: Due to the leaked references, the memory regions would never be released, and indirectly keep the VFU object as their owner alive. Thus, vfu_object_finalize didn't get invoked, and qemu wouldn't terminate. With this fix, this is now working as originally intended.
