[RFC 6/6] virtio-gpu: Find the host addr given gpa associated with a ram device
Posted by Vivek Kasireddy 4 days, 11 hours ago
If the Guest provides a gpa (guest physical address) associated with
a PCI region, then we can obtain the hva (host virtual address) via
gpa2hva() API instead of dma_memory_map(). Note that we would still
call dma_memory_unmap() (to unref mr) regardless of how we obtained
the hva.

I think address_space_translate() should be used instead. The guest 
passes addresses that are valid in the DMA address space, which may not 
be a GPA if an IOMMU is in effect. address_space_translate() allows you 
specifying the DMA address space.

The motivation for this change should also be described in the patch 
message; otherwise a reader may wonder why dma_memory_map() does not 
suffice.

While I added comments for each patch, the overall implementation 
direction of this series looks good to me.

Akihiko Odaki
