[PATCH 00/10] vfio/pci: Allow MMIO regions to be exported through dma-buf

by Leon Romanovsky

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro(a)nvidia.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on blk and DMA patches which will be sent during coming merge window. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This series extends the VFIO PCI subsystem to support exporting MMIO regions from PCI device BARs as dma-buf objects, enabling safe sharing of non-struct page memory with controlled lifetime management. This allows RDMA and other subsystems to import dma-buf FDs and build them into memory regions for PCI P2P operations. The series supports a use case for SPDK where a NVMe device will be owned by SPDK through VFIO but interacting with a RDMA device. The RDMA device may directly access the NVMe CMB or directly manipulate the NVMe device's doorbell using PCI P2P. However, as a general mechanism, it can support many other scenarios with VFIO. This dmabuf approach can be usable by iommufd as well for generic and safe P2P mappings. In addition to the SPDK use-case mentioned above, the capability added in this patch series can also be useful when a buffer (located in device memory such as VRAM) needs to be shared between any two dGPU devices or instances (assuming one of them is bound to VFIO PCI) as long as they are P2P DMA compatible. The implementation provides a revocable attachment mechanism using dma-buf move operations. MMIO regions are normally pinned as BARs don't change physical addresses, but access is revoked when the VFIO device is closed or a PCI reset is issued. This ensures kernel self-defense against potentially hostile userspace. The series includes significant refactoring of the PCI P2PDMA subsystem to separate core P2P functionality from memory allocation features, making it more modular and suitable for VFIO use cases that don't need struct page support. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is based on https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250307052248.405803-1-vivek.kasireddy@intel.c… but heavily rewritten to be based on DMA physical API. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The WIP branch can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/leon/linux-rdma.git/log/?h=… Thanks Leon Romanovsky (8): PCI/P2PDMA: Remove redundant bus_offset from map state PCI/P2PDMA: Introduce p2pdma_provider structure for cleaner abstraction PCI/P2PDMA: Simplify bus address mapping API PCI/P2PDMA: Refactor to separate core P2P functionality from memory allocation PCI/P2PDMA: Export pci_p2pdma_map_type() function types: move phys_vec definition to common header vfio/pci: Enable peer-to-peer DMA transactions by default vfio/pci: Add dma-buf export support for MMIO regions Vivek Kasireddy (2): vfio: Export vfio device get and put registration helpers vfio/pci: Share the core device pointer while invoking feature functions block/blk-mq-dma.c | 7 +- drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c | 4 +- drivers/pci/p2pdma.c | 144 +++++++++---- drivers/vfio/pci/Kconfig | 20 ++ drivers/vfio/pci/Makefile | 2 + drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_config.c | 22 +- drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_core.c | 59 ++++-- drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_dmabuf.c | 321 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_priv.h | 23 +++ drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c | 2 + include/linux/dma-buf.h | 1 + include/linux/pci-p2pdma.h | 114 +++++----- include/linux/types.h | 5 + include/linux/vfio.h | 2 + include/linux/vfio_pci_core.h | 4 + include/uapi/linux/vfio.h | 19 ++ kernel/dma/direct.c | 4 +- mm/hmm.c | 2 +- 18 files changed, 631 insertions(+), 124 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_dmabuf.c -- 2.50.1

I did hope for something like this in the early days, but it proved not so easy to get agreements on details :( My feeling was we should get some actual examples of using this thing and then it is far easier to discuss ideas, like yours here, to improve it. Many of the discussions kind of got confused without enough actual usering code for everyone to refer to. For instance the nvme use case is a big driver for the API design, and it is quite different from these simpler flows, this idea needs to see how it would work there. Maybe this idea could also have provider = NULL meaning it is CPU cachable memory? > +static inline void dma_iova_try_alloc_p2p(struct p2pdma_provider *provider, > + struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state, phys_addr_t phys, > + size_t size) > +{ > +} Can't be empty - PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_THRU_HOST_BRIDGE vs PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR still matters so it still must set dma_iova_state::bus_addr to get dma_map_phys_prealloc() to do the right thing. Still, it would make sense to put something like that in dma/mapping.c and rely on the static inline stub for dma_iova_try_alloc().. > for (i = 0; i < priv->nr_ranges; i++) { > - if (!state) { > - addr = pci_p2pdma_bus_addr_map(provider, > - phys_vec[i].paddr); > - } else if (dma_use_iova(state)) { > - ret = dma_iova_link(attachment->dev, state, > - phys_vec[i].paddr, 0, > - phys_vec[i].len, dir, attrs); > - if (ret) > - goto err_unmap_dma; > - > - mapped_len += phys_vec[i].len; > - } else { > - addr = dma_map_phys(attachment->dev, phys_vec[i].paddr, > - phys_vec[i].len, dir, attrs); > - ret = dma_mapping_error(attachment->dev, addr); > - if (ret) > - goto err_unmap_dma; > - } > + addr = dma_map_phys_prealloc(attachment->dev, phys_vec[i].paddr, > + phys_vec[i].len, dir, attrs, state, > + provider); There was a draft of something like this at some point.

That way the proposal can be properly evaluated by all the stake holders. Jason

Patch 10 has lots of flows, only one will end up in dma-iommu.c vfio_pci_dma_buf_map() calls pci_p2pdma_bus_addr_map(), dma_iova_link(), dma_map_phys(). Only iova_link would call to dma-iommu.c - if dma_map_phys() is called we know that dma-iommu.c won't be called by it. > >> If there were non-iommu paths then I would expect the code would > >> use the regular DMA api directly which would then call in to > >> dma-iommu. > > > > If p2p type is PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR, there will no dma-iommu and DMA > > at all. > > I understand that and it is completely beside my point. > > If the dma mapping for P2P memory doesn't need to create an iommu > mapping then that's fine.

So above, we can't use dma-iommu.c, it might not be compiled into the kernel but the dma_map_phys() path is still valid. > It's not a decision that should be made by every driver doing this > kind of thing. Sort of, I think we are trying to get to some place where there are subsystem, or at least data structure specific helpers that do this (ie nvme has BIO helpers), but the helpers should be running this logic directly for performance. Leon hasn't done it but I think we should see helpers for DMABUF too encapsulating the logic shown in patch 10. I think we need to prove it out these basic points first before trying to go and convert a bunch of GPU drivers. The vfio in patch 10 is not the full example since it only has a single scatter/gather" effectively, but the generalized version loops over pci_p2pdma_bus_addr_map(), dma_iova_link(), dma_map_phys() for each page. Part of the new API design is to only do one kind of mapping operation at once, and part of the design is we know that the P2P type is fixed. It makes no performance sense to check the type inside the pci_p2pdma_bus_addr_map()/ dma_iova_link()/dma_map_phys() within the per-page loop. I do think some level of abstraction has been lost here in pursuit of performance. If someone does have a better way to structure this without a performance hit then fantastic, but thats going back and revising the new DMA API. This just builds on top of that, and yes, it is not so abstract. Jason

This has nothing to do with dma-iommu.c, the decisions here still need to be made even if dma-iommu.c is not compiled in. It could be exported from the main dma code, but I think it would just be a 1 line wrapper around the existing function? I'd rather rename the functions and leave them in the p2pdma.c files... Jason
