- Allow the vfio-type1 IOMMU to support multiple domains within a container
- Plumb path to query whether all domains are cache-coherent
- Wire query into kvm-vfio device to avoid KVM x86 WBINVD emulation

The first patch also makes the vfio-type1 IOMMU driver completely independent

Commit bf6bddf192 ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for
ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction
which dereferences page->first_page if PageTail(page).
This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the
aforementioned page_count(page). Indeed, anything that does
compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with
prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page->first_page
pointer.
This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that
deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head()
implementation. This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that
if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither
NULL nor dangling. The patch then adds a store memory barrier to
prep_compound_page() to ensure page->first_page is set.
This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are
expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the
memory barriers are unfortunately required.
Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier
during init since no race is possible.

Now that the type1 IOMMU backend can support IOMMU_CACHE, we need to
be able to test whether coherency is currently enforced. Add an
extension for this.
Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
We currently have a problem that we cannot support advanced features
of an IOMMU domain (ex. IOMMU_CACHE), because we have no guarantee
that those features will be supported by all of the hardware units
involved with the domain over its lifetime. For instance, the Intel
VT-d architecture does not require that all DRHDs support snoop
control. If we create a domain based on a device behind a DRHD that
does support snoop control and enable SNP support via the IOMMU_CACHE
mapping option, we cannot then add a device behind a DRHD which does
not support snoop control or we'll get reserved bit faults from the
SNP bit in the pagetables. To add to the complexity, we can't know
the properties of a domain until a device is attached.
We could pass this problem off to userspace and require that a
separate vfio container be used, but we don't know how to handle page
accounting in that case. How do we know that a page pinned in one
container is the same page as a different container and avoid double
billing the user for the page.
The solution is therefore to support multiple IOMMU domains per
container. In the majority of cases, only one domain will be required
since hardware is typically consistent within a system. However, this
provides us the ability to validate compatibility of domains and
support mixed environments where page table flags can be different
between domains.
To do this, our DMA tracking needs to change. We currently try to
coalesce user mappings into as few tracking entries as possible. The
problem then becomes that we lose granularity of user mappings. We've
never guaranteed that a user is able to unmap at a finer granularity
than the original mapping, but we must honor the granularity of the
original mapping. This coalescing code is therefore removed, allowing
only unmaps covering complete maps. The change in accounting is
fairly small here, a typical QEMU VM will start out with roughly a
dozen entries, so it's arguable if this coalescing was ever needed.
We also move IOMMU domain creation to the point where a group is
attached to the container. An interesting side-effect of this is that
we now have access to the device at the time of domain creation and
can probe the devices within the group to determine the bus_type.
This finally makes vfio_iommu_type1 completely device/bus agnostic.
In fact, each IOMMU domain can host devices on different buses managed
by different physical IOMMUs, and present a single DMA mapping
interface to the user. When a new domain is created, mappings are
replayed to bring the IOMMU pagetables up to the state of the current
container. And of course, DMA mapping and unmapping automatically
traverse all of the configured IOMMU domains.

In vfio_iommu_type1.c there is a bug in vfio_dma_do_map, when checking
that pages are not already mapped. Since the check is being done in a
for loop nested within the main loop, breaking out of it does not create
the intended behavior. If the underlying IOMMU driver returns a non-NULL
value, this will be ignored and mapping the DMA range will be attempted
anyway, leading to unpredictable behavior.
This interracts badly with the ARM SMMU driver issue fixed in the patch
that was submitted with the title:
"[PATCH 2/2] ARM: SMMU: return NULL on error in arm_smmu_iova_to_phys"
Both fixes are required in order to use the vfio_iommu_type1 driver
with an ARM SMMU.
This patch refactors the function slightly, in order to also make this
kind of bug less likely.

We also don't handle unpinning zero pages as an error on other exits
so we can fix that inconsistency by rolling in the next conditional
return.

With hugepage support we can only properly aligned and sized ranges.
We only guarantee that we can unmap the same ranges mapped and not
arbitrary sub-ranges. This means we might not free anything or might
free more than requested. The vfio unmap interface started storing
the unmapped size to return to userspace to handle this. This patch
fixes a few places where we don't properly handle those cases, moves
a memory allocation to a place where failure is an option and checks
our loops to make sure we don't get into an infinite loop trying to
remove an overlap.

Add a module option to vfio_iommu_type1 to disable IOMMU hugepage
support. This causes iommu_map to only be called with single page
mappings, disabling the IOMMU driver's ability to use hugepages.
This option can be enabled by loading vfio_iommu_type1 with
disable_hugepages=1 or dynamically through sysfs. If enabled
dynamically, only new mappings are restricted.

We currently send all mappings to the iommu in PAGE_SIZE chunks,
which prevents the iommu from enabling support for larger page sizes.
We still need to pin pages, which means we step through them in
PAGE_SIZE chunks, but we can batch up contiguous physical memory
chunks to allow the iommu the opportunity to use larger pages. The
approach here is a bit different that the one currently used for
legacy KVM device assignment. Rather than looking at the vma page
size and using that as the maximum size to pass to the iommu, we
instead simply look at whether the next page is physically
contiguous. This means we might ask the iommu to map a 4MB region,
while legacy KVM might limit itself to a maximum of 2MB.
Splitting our mapping path also allows us to be smarter about locked
memory because we can more easily unwind if the user attempts to
exceed the limit. Therefore, rather than assuming that a mapping
will result in locked memory, we test each page as it is pinned to
determine whether it locks RAM vs an mmap'd MMIO region. This should
result in better locking granularity and less locked page fudge
factors in userspace.
The unmap path uses the same algorithm as legacy KVM. We don't want
to track the pfn for each mapping ourselves, but we need the pfn in
order to unpin pages. We therefore ask the iommu for the iova to
physical address translation, ask it to unpin a page, and see how many
pages were actually unpinned. iommus supporting large pages will
often return something bigger than a page here, which we know will be
physically contiguous and we can unpin a batch of pfns. iommus not
supporting large mappings won't see an improvement in batching here as
they only unmap a page at a time.
With this change, we also make a clarification to the API for mapping
and unmapping DMA. We can only guarantee unmaps at the same
granularity as used for the original mapping. In other words,
unmapping a subregion of a previous mapping is not guaranteed and may
result in a larger or smaller unmapping than requested. The size
field in the unmapping structure is updated to reflect this.
Previously this was unmodified on mapping, always returning the the
requested unmap size. This is now updated to return the actual unmap
size on success, allowing userspace to appropriately track mappings.

We need to keep track of all the DMA mappings of an iommu container so
that it can be automatically unmapped when the user releases the file
descriptor. We currently do this using a simple list, where we merge
entries with contiguous iovas and virtual addresses. Using a tree for
this is a bit more efficient and allows us to use common code instead
of inventing our own.

This VFIO IOMMU backend is designed primarily for AMD-Vi and Intel
VT-d hardware, but is potentially usable by anything supporting
similar mapping functionality. We arbitrarily call this a Type1
backend for lack of a better name. This backend has no IOVA
or host memory mapping restrictions for the user and is optimized
for relatively static mappings. Mapped areas are pinned into system
memory.
