Subject: [PATCH V2] vfio: platform: support No-IOMMU mode
Date: Mon, 23 May 2016 16:14:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463991250-980-1-git-send-email-van.freenix@gmail.com> (raw)

The vfio No-IOMMU mode was supported by this
'commit 03a76b60f8ba2797 ("vfio: Include No-IOMMU mode")',
but it only support vfio-pci.

Using vfio_iommu_group_get/put, but not iommu_group_get/put,
the platform devices can be exposed to userspace with
CONFIG_VFIO_NOIOMMU and the "enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode"
option enabled.

>From 'commit 03a76b60f8ba2797 ("vfio: Include No-IOMMU mode")',
"This should make it very clear that this mode is not safe.
Additionally, CAP_SYS_RAWIO privileges are necessary to work
with groups and containers using this mode.  Groups making
use of this support are named /dev/vfio/noiommu-$GROUP and
can only make use of the special VFIO_NOIOMMU_IOMMU for the
container.  Use of this mode, specifically binding a device
without a native IOMMU group to a VFIO bus driver will taint
the kernel and should therefore not be considered supported.",

Actually, for vfio-platform No-IOMMU mode, the userspace can
not do DMA, because the ioctl API of noiommu container only
supports VFIO_CHECK_EXTENSION and VFIO_IOMMU_MAP_DMA is not
supported.

V2:
 Rename subject to support No-IOMMU
 Add more commit log.

 I wrote a simple program following this
 https://github.com/virtualopensystems/vfio-host-test/blob/master/src_test/vfio_device_test.c
 ,no dma support. The device's register can be
 accessed in userspace using command './vfio_dev_test 30b60000.usdhc 0 1 platform'
