Subject: [PATCH v4 10/10] vfio/pci: Add mmap() attributes to DMABUF feature
Date: Wed,  1 Jul 2026 18:12:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701171245.90111-11-matt@ozlabs.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260701171245.90111-1-matt@ozlabs.org>

A new VFIO feature, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR, is added to
set CPU-facing memory type attributes for a DMABUF exported from
vfio-pci.  These are used for subsequent mmap()s of the buffer.

There are two attributes supported:
 - The default, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR_NC
 - VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR_WC, which results in WC
   PTEs for the DMABUF's BAR region.
