When vfio_device_get_region_info() fails in vfio_pci_load_rom(),
the function returns without setting vdev->rom_read_failed to true,
and without allocating vdev->rom. This leaves vdev->rom as NULL.

vfio_rom_read() can leak uninitialized stack data to the guest when a
read occurs at the end boundary of the ROM BAR.
Fix this by initializing the val union to 0xff, matching the ROM
initialization pattern used in vfio_pci_load_rom().

This makes the intended access mode explicit when registering DMA
regions with the server. A new "file I/O" access mode is defined, which
can be used if the file descriptor provided by the client doesn't
support `mmap()`.

From: GuoHan Zhao <zhaoguohan@kylinos.cn>
The vfio-user protocol makes the VERSION payload optional, so a
reply may legally stop after the major and minor fields.
vfio_user_validate_version() currently assumes a capabilities string is
always present and NUL-terminated. When the server replies without
version data, QEMU ends up reusing the request-side capabilities buffer
and the terminating-NUL check underflows. Replies shorter than the fixed
VERSION header are also accessed before they are validated.
Reject replies shorter than the fixed VERSION header and only parse
capabilities when the reply actually carries version data.

Simplify the VFIOIOMMUClass interface by removing the dma_map_file
handler. Move the logic to decide between the standard virtual and
file-backed mapping into the IOMMUFD backend, utilizing the
MemoryRegion already passed to the dma_map handler.
This removes redundant dispatch logic from the generic container layer
and let backends to manage their own mapping strategies. This is
similar to the vfio-user implementation.

migration_completion_precopy() doesn't propagate errors to migration
core which leads to error information loss. Fix that.
This prepares for a follow-up where migration_switchover_start() can
fail on switchover-ack and still report a useful error.

From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
ram_postcopy_send_discard_bitmap() performs the final RAM dirty bitmap
sync at postcopy switchover, before sending discard bitmap to the
destination. Unlike the precopy switchover path, it currently calls the
raw migration_bitmap_sync() helper and passes last_stage=false.
Postcopy switchover is also a stopped-VM final sync point, so use
migration_bitmap_sync_precopy(true). This keeps RAM final bitmap sync
handling consistent across precopy and postcopy switchover, including
the precopy bitmap-sync notifier wrapper. Current notifier users are
safe in postcopy: virtio-balloon free-page hinting already opts out when
postcopy-ram is enabled [1].
This prepares for moving the final sync out of RAM completion/discard
paths and into migration_switchover_start(), where the migration core
can run a final save_query_pending pass for all modules uniformly.

To: qemu-devel; +Cc: Avihai Horon, Cédric Le Goater
From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
Before switchover, the source needs one last exact pending query so
modules can flush dirty state. This is currently done ad hoc in modules
handlers. For example, RAM syncs its dirty bitmap in its save_complete
handler.
This should be a general concept relevant for any module, so extract it
to migration core instead by running a final save_query_pending before
switchover.
The final query requires special handling by modules (e.g., it's called
with BQL locked, during VM stop), so extend save_query_pending
SaveVMHandlers callback and qemu_savevm_query_pending() with a "final"
flag so migration modules can tell the last pending query during
switchover from periodic iteration queries.
Call final pending query also in COLO checkpoint, which needs to flush
dirty state before the checkpoint's live state is saved. Unlike a
regular switchover, COLO reaches completion repeatedly for every
checkpoint, so this must be done on each one.

From: Cédric Le Goater @ 2026-07-07 6:29 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: qemu-devel; +Cc: Avihai Horon, Peter Xu, Cédric Le Goater
From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
A new switchover-ack mechanism that will replace the existing one will
be added in the following patches. The new mechanism will not use
switchover_ack_needed SaveVMHandler, however, the old mechanism must
still be kept for backward compatibility.
To keep things clear and decrease API surface of old code, replace
switchover_ack_needed SaveVMHandler with a regular function
migration_request_switchover_ack().
No functional changes intended.

A new switchover-ack mechanism will be added in the following patches.
However, the old mechanism must still be kept for backward
compatibility.
Rename existing code that will be used only for old switchover-ack
mechanism as legacy. This will help to distinguish legacy code from new
code and make it more readable and easier for removal later when no
longer needed.
No functional change intended.

From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
Switchover-ack is a mechanism to synchronize between source and
destination QEMU during migration to prevent the source from switching
over prematurely.
VFIO uses switchover-ack to ensure switchover happens only after
destination side has loaded the precopy initial bytes. This is important
for VFIO, as otherwise downtime could be impacted and be higher.
In its current state, switchover-ack is a one-time mechanism, meaning
that switchover is acked only once and past that another ACK cannot be
requested again. This was sufficient until now, as VFIO precopy initial
bytes was defined to be monotonically decreasing. Thus, when precopy
initial bytes reached zero for all VFIO devices, a single ACK would be
sent and its validity would hold.
However, now the new VFIO_PRECOPY_INFO_REINIT feature allows precopy
initial bytes to be re-initialized during precopy. Specifically, it
means that initial bytes can grow after reaching zero, which would
invalidate a previously sent switchover ACK.
To solve this, make switchover-ack reusable and allow devices to request
switchover ACKs when needed via the save_query_pending SaveVMHandler.
Since now switchover ACK can be requested for a specific device and in
different times, make switchover ACK per-device (instead of a single ACK
for all devices) and let source side do the pending ACKs accounting.
Keep the legacy switchover-ack mechanism for backward compatibility and
turn it on by a compatibility property for older machines. Enable the
property until VFIO implements the new switchover-ack.

To: qemu-devel; +Cc: Avihai Horon, Cédric Le Goater
From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
Switchover ACK is checked only during precopy while the guest is still
running. The last migration_can_switchover() decision and guest stop are
not atomic, so a device may want to request another switchover ACK in
the gap after switchover decision has been made but before the guest is
stopped. Migration would then miss that request, which can increase
downtime.
Cover this case by failing the migration if a switchover-ack was
requested during that time.
Ideally, precopy iterations should be resumed in this case, however,
VFIO doesn't support going back to precopy after being stopped, so
implementing such logic would require non-trivial changes to the guest
start/stop flow. Given the above and that this case should be rare,
failing the migration seems reasonable.

From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
Add support for the new switchover-ack mechanism. This includes
requesting a switchover ACK on the first save_query_pending call (with
exact=false) if VFIO precopy is supported.
This achieves the same functionality of legacy switchover-ack but with
the new switchover-ack mechanism.
Keep legacy switchover-ack functionality for backward compatibility.

According to VFIO uAPI, precopy initial_bytes is considered as critical
data that should be transferred and loaded prior to moving to STOP_COPY
state to ensure precopy phase would be effective.
As currently defined, initial_bytes can only decrease as it's being read
from the data fd. However, there are cases where a new chunk of
initial_bytes should be transferred during precopy.
The new VFIO_PRECOPY_INFO_REINIT feature addresses this and allows
reporting a new value for initial_bytes regardless of any previously
reported values.
Implement VFIO_PRECOPY_INFO_REINIT feature:
1. Opt-in for VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_MIG_PRECOPY_INFOv2 to make
VFIO_PRECOPY_INFO_REINIT available.
2. Request a new switchover ACK if initial_bytes increases post of a
previous switchover ACK. This ensures the device is not moved to
STOP_COPY before initial_bytes has reached zero again.

From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
VFIO_REPCOPY_INFO_REINIT is checked only during precopy, before the
switchover decision. However, the switchover decision and guest stop are
not atomic, so a VFIO device may want to set VFIO_PRECOPY_INFO_REINIT
and request another switchover ACK in the gap after switchover decision
has been made but before the guest is stopped. This would be missed and
may increase downtime.
Solve this by checking if VFIO_PRECOPY_INFO_REINIT was set during that
gap, and request a new switchover-ack in the final save_state_pending
call. Query precopy info after vCPUs are stopped but before
transitioning from PRE_COPY state, when its valid to call the ioctl.

From: Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>
migration_completion_precopy() reports its error through the Error
**errp argument, so its int return value carries no information beyond
success/failure. Convert it to return a bool, matching the common
convention.
Convert its underlying helper qemu_savevm_state_complete_precopy()
likewise, and in turn qemu_savevm_state_non_iterable(), which it calls.
Adjust all callers accordingly.
Refactor and clean migration_completion() code too, which no longer
needs to track int return values.

"Switchover" is a noun; the verb form is "switch over". Replace all
instances where "switchover" was incorrectly used as a verb in comments
and documentation.

Introduce a support_ats() handler that returns whether ATS is supported

IOMMU_HW_CAP_PCI_ATS_NOT_SUPPORTED capability bit is set.
Implement this handler in a new function for iommufd.

From: Nathan Chen <nathanc@nvidia.com>
Add an "ats" OnOffAuto property to vfio-pci. When the device has an ATS
extended capability in config space but we should not expose it (ats=off,
or ats=auto and kernel reports IOMMU_HW_CAP_PCI_ATS_NOT_SUPPORTED), mask
the capability so the guest does not see it.
If ATS is explicitly requested but not supported by the kernel, fail
device realize.
This aligns with the kernel's per-device effective ATS reporting and allows
vfio-pci to mask ATS when the host kernel reports ATS as unsupported.
Emit a warning when ats=on is requested but the physical device does not
advertise ATS, since ATS cannot be exposed to the guest in this case.
Emit a warning when ats=auto, ats cap is present on the physical device,
but kernel reports ATS as unsupported.

In vfio_listener_region_del(), when dirty tracking is active and a
writable RAM section is deleted, a synthetic IOMMUTLBEntry is built to
flush dirty pages. Setting translated_addr to the IOVA (GPA) is only
correct for identity-mapped regions where GPA == ram_addr_t.
For RAM sections with GPA far above main RAM (e.g., nested VT-d interrupt
remapping table at 58 TB), translated_addr is too large, causing a crash
in physical_memory_set_dirty_lebitmap() when indexing beyond the allocated
dirty memory blocks array :
bitmap_set_atomic(map=NULL, start=1, nr=1)
physical_memory_set_dirty_range(start=0x380004040000, length=4096)
physical_memory_set_dirty_lebitmap(start=0x380004040000, pages=3)
vfio_container_query_dirty_bitmap(translated_addr=0x380004040000)
vfio_legacy_dma_unmap_one(iova=0x380004040000, size=12288)
vfio_listener_region_del()
Fix this by setting translated_addr to the ram_addr_t of the section, which
is consistent with other vfio dirty tracking code:
translated_addr = memory_region_get_ram_addr(section->mr) +
section->offset_within_region;

The trace event receives dev_id before type, but its format string prints
them in the wrong order. Correct the order.

The 3-bit MSI-X BIR fields permit values 0-7, but VFIOPCIDevice::bars[]
only contains BAR0-BAR5 (6 entries). An invalid BIR value of 6 or 7
can cause an out-of-bounds array access (CWE-129) in vfio_msix_early_setup().
Add range checks immediately after extracting the BIR values.
