Subject: [PATCH v3 3/4] vfio: selftests: Add memfd test to vfio_dma_mapping_perf_test
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 15:33:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910153326.3085937-4-aaronlewis@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910153326.3085937-1-aaronlewis@google.com>
Add a second test to "vfio_dma_mapping_perf_test" to evaluate memfd
latencies. A key motivator for adding this test is to demonstrate that
the IOMMU_IOAS_MAP_FILE ioctl is significantly faster than other methods
of mapping DMA regions. While this performance difference is not fully
apparent with the test's current capabilities, it will become evident
as more features are introduced later in the series.
To support this, add IOMMU_IOAS_MAP_FILE ioctl support to the VFIO
selftest library via iommufd_map_file().
