Hi all,
This series is based on previous RFCs/discussions:
Tech topic: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20250918214425.2677057-1-amastro@fb.com/
RFCv1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260226202211.929005-1-mattev@meta.com/
RFCv2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260312184613.3710705-1-mattev@meta.com/
The background/rationale is covered in more detail in the RFC cover
letters. The TL;DR is:
The goal is to enable userspace driver designs that use VFIO to export
DMABUFs representing subsets of PCI device BARs, and "vend" those
buffers from a primary process to other subordinate processes by fd.
These processes then mmap() the buffers and their access to the device
is isolated to the exported ranges. This is an improvement on sharing
the VFIO device fd to subordinate processes, which would allow
unfettered access.
This is achieved by enabling mmap() of vfio-pci DMABUFs, passed by fd
to subordinate processes. Second, a new revocation mechanism is added
to allow the primary process to forcibly revoke access to
previously-shared BAR spans, even if the subordinate processes haven't
cleanly exited.
(The related topic of safe delegation of iommufd control to the
subordinate processes is not addressed here, and is follow-up work.)
As well as isolation and revocation, another advantage to accessing a
BAR through a VMA backed by a DMABUF is that it's straightforward to
mmap() the buffer with access attributes, such as write-combining.
Feedback from the RFCs requested that, instead of creating
DMABUF-specific vm_ops and .fault paths, to go the whole way and
migrate the existing VFIO PCI BAR mmap() to be backed by a DMABUF too,
resulting in a common vm_ops and fault handler for mmap()s of both the
VFIO device and explicitly-exported DMABUFs. This will help future
iommufd emulation of VFIO Type1 peer-to-peer, making it easier to get
a DMABUF for a VFIO BAR as a DMA target.
mmap() conversion to use DMABUF underneath has been done for vfio-pci,
but not sub-drivers:
nvgrace-gpu's mmap() override path is unchanged; I kept this out of
scope for now not least because I don't have a thorough test setup
for this system. I would prefer to help the nvgrace-gpu maintainers
enable BAR mmap() DMABUFs themselves.
Notes on patches
================
PCI/P2PDMA: Add CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE
Later in the series, vfio-pci's mmap() is going to depend on
pcim_p2pdma_provider() which depended on CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA, which
in turn depended on ZONE_DEVICE (which isn't available on 32-bit
and some archs, because they lack MEMORY_HOTPLUG and friends).
VFIO does _not_ require actual P2P to be present for basic mmap()
functionality, only for the optional CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER
feature.
This splits out p2pdma_core.c under CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE (which
currently contains pcim_p2pdma_provider()), and an optional
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA which depends on ZONE_DEVICE etc. providing
P2P functionality in the existing p2pdma.c.
vfio/pci: Add a helper to look up PFNs for DMABUFs
vfio/pci: Add a helper to create a DMABUF for a BAR-map VMA
The first is for a DMABUF VMA fault handler to determine
arbitrary-sized PFNs from ranges in DMABUF. Secondly, refactor
DMABUF export for use by the existing export feature and add a
helper that creates a DMABUF corresponding to a VFIO BAR mmap()
request.
vfio/pci: Convert BAR mmap() to use a DMABUF
The vfio-pci core mmap() creates a DMABUF with the helper, and the
vm_ops fault handler uses the other helper to resolve the fault.
Because this depends on DMABUF structs/code, CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_CORE
needs to depend on CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER. The
CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF still conditionally enables the export
support code.
NOTE: The user mmap()s a device fd, but the resulting VMA's vm_file
becomes that of the DMABUF. The DMABUF takes ownership of the
device and put()s it on release, which maintains the existing
behaviour of a VMA keeping the VFIO device open.
BAR zapping then happens via the existing vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()
path, which now needs to unmap PTEs in the DMABUF's address_space.
vfio/pci: Provide a user-facing name for BAR mappings
There was a request for decent debug naming in /proc/<pid>/maps
etc. comparable to the existing VFIO names: since the VMAs are
DMABUFs, they have a "dmabuf:" prefix and can't be 100% identical
to before. This is a user-visible change, but this patch at least
now gives us extra info on the BDF & BAR being mapped.
vfio/pci: Clean up BAR zap and revocation
In general (see NOTE!) the vfio_pci_zap_bars() is now obsolete,
since it unmaps PTEs in the VFIO device address_space which is now
unused. This consolidates all calls (e.g. around reset) with the
neighbouring vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()s into new functions, to
revoke-zap/unrevoke. This makes the "revoke/un-revoke" steps
clearer.
NOTE: Because drivers can use their own vm_ops and override .mmap,
the core must conservatively assume an overridden .mmap might still
add PTEs to the VFIO device address_space and therefore still does
the zap. A new flag, zap_bars_on_revoke, enables the zap when
.mmap is overridden. A driver that does not need the zap can clear
this to opt-out, e.g. if the driver calls down to the common mmap
(and so uses DMABUFs).
vfio/pci: Support mmap() of a VFIO DMABUF
Adds mmap() for a DMABUF fd exported from vfio-pci.
It was a goal to keep the VFIO device fd lifetime behaviour
unchanged with respect to the DMABUFs. An application can close
all device fds, and this will revoke/clean up all DMABUFs; no
mappings or other access can be performed now. When enabling
mmap() of the DMABUFs, this means access through the VMA is also
revoked. This complicates the fault handler because whilst the
DMABUF exists, it has no guarantee that the corresponding VFIO
device is still alive. Adds synchronisation ensuring the vdev is
available before vdev->memory_lock is touched; this holds the
device registration so that even if the buffer has been cleaned up,
vdev hasn't been freed and so the lock can be safely taken.
This commit makes VFIO_PCI_CORE depend on PCI_P2PDMA_CORE (commit
1) to bring in (only) the P2PDMA provider code.
vfio/pci: Permanently revoke a DMABUF on request
By weight, this is mostly a rename of revoked to an enum, status.
There are now 3 states for a buffer, usable and revoked
temporary/permanent. A new VFIO feature is added,
VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_REVOKE, which takes a DMABUF (exported
from the same device) and permanently revokes it. Thus a userspace
driver can guarantee any downstream consumers of a shared fd are
prevented from accessing a BAR range, and that range can be reused.
NOTE: This might block userspace, waiting on importers to detach.
The code doing revocation in vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() is moved,
unchanged, to a common function for use by ..._move() and this new
feature.
vfio/pci: Add mmap() attributes to DMABUF feature
Adds a new VFIO feature, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR.
After a DMABUF is exported, this feature is used to set a memory
attribute that will be used by future mmap()s of the DMABUF fd. It
doesn't affect existing maps.
The default is UC, and via the feature one can specify CPU access
as WC. The attribute is an enum/scalar rather than
bitmap/cumulative. The attributes follow a "try-fail" model where
a client can request an attribute and either succeed or fail with
ENOENT if it's unknown; if future attributes are platform-specific
then their support can be probed.
(Since it's just UC/WC for now, there is no reservation or numeric
structure to the namespace yet, but we could support
system/arch-specific values in future by carving out base +
arch-specific + IMPDEF ranges.)
Testing
=======
(The [RFC ONLY] userspace test program, for QEMU edu-plus, can be
found in the GitHub branch below. It at least illustrates how the
export, map, revoke, attribute, and close semantics interoperate.)
This code has been tested in mapping DMABUFs of single/multiple ranges
from multiple BARs, aliasing mmap()s, aliasing ranges across DMABUFs,
vm_pgoff > 0, revocation, shutdown/cleanup scenarios, and hugepage
mappings. I've lightly tested WC mappings also (by observing
resulting PTEs as having the correct attributes...). No regressions
observed on the VFIO selftests, or on our internal vfio-pci
applications. VFIO on i386 has been build-tested.
End

Thanks for reading,

================================================================================
Change log:
v3:
- Refactor p2pdma.c: split out pcim_p2pdma_provider() into a new
p2pdma_core.c under CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE.
- vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn() cleanups: Rename parameter to priv,
remove bad WARN, move unnecessary addition out of inner loop.
- vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf() cleanups: Remove uint32_t, remove
unnecessary const variable.
- Conversion of BAR mmap() to DMABUF: VFIO_PCI_DMABUF depends on
VFIO_PCI_CORE. vfio_pci_mmap_huge_fault(): move dev_dbg() outside
of lock (argh), remove READ_ONCE(vdev)/move priv->vdev read and
improve comment explanation.
- On revoke, BAR zap defaults to on if .mmap is overridden by a
driver (and implements an opt-out for the hisi_acc_vfio_pci driver,
which overrides mmap() with a simple wrapper that ends up using the
common DMABUF mmap() rather than custom mappings).
- Reworded commit "vfio/pci: Support mmap() of a VFIO DMABUF" message
for clarity. Reworded vfio_pci_mmap_huge_fault() comment for
accuracy (vdev validity depends on not being revoked).
Added comment in mmap() explaining belt-and-braces approach for
early detecting a map of a revoked buffer.
- Revoke now uses VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF rather than a new
ioctl(); instead of the revoke helper taking 'revoked/permanently'
bools, it's become vfio_pci_dma_buf_set_status() taking a single
status enum. Added a READ_ONCE() for the lockless test of
priv->vdev (flags it as intentional, even if it's in practice going
to be a single-copy atomic read).
- Removed GET on vfio_pci_core_feature_dma_buf_memattr(), removed
unnecessary taking of memory_lock, fixed error return values. In
particular, removes ENOTSUPP, and uses ENOENT to indicate an
unknown attribute enum value was passed to SET. In the discussion
here,
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260602131417.41366391@shazbot.org/
we'd agreed on EOPNOTSUPP before I realised that's already used
elsewhere. ENOENT uniquely indicates an unknown attribute.
v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260527102319.100128-1-mattev@meta.com/
- Rebase on VFIO next, picking up Alex's
vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()/vfio_pci_dma_buf_cleanup() fixes, and
dropping "vfio/pci: Fix vfio_pci_dma_buf_cleanup() double-put"
- Added "PCI/P2PDMA: Add CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE" so that the
newly-added vfio-pci hard dependency on the P2PDMA provider instead
pulls in the _CORE variant and not the full-fat CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA.
This means that the core of vfio-pci does not need ZONE_DEVICE, but
if it's available then enabling P2PDMA in turn enables DMABUF
export. Fixes basic VFIO operation on 32b or other platforms without
ZONE_DEVICE.
- Fixed comment inaccuracy in vfio_pci_dma_buf_revoke() and cleaned
up vdev validity test.
- vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn(): use PAGE_ALIGN(), better span variable
naming, OVF check
- Made vm_pgoffs use consistent (keeping the resource index at the
top and masking where offset is used). For BAR mmap, use new
vma_pgoff_adjust to create the DMABUF with the exact mmap()ed span
instead of from the start of the BAR with an invisible portion
before the mapping.
- Added VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR to set memory attributes,
instead of using the export `flags` field.
- vfio_pci_ioctl_reset: Moved vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars()
(effectively, vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()) back after D0 transition.
Note, if a BAR zap is needed, it's done in this function so now
happens after this D0 transition with the _move; it was done before
it at the time of the memory_lock taking.
- Minimised vfio_pci_dma_buf_mmap() (removed redundant span check),
added READ_ONCE for memattr
- Misc fixes: comment in DMABUF name generation, removed superfluous
READ_ONCE from faulthandler
v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260416131815.2729131-1-mattev@meta.com/
- Cleanup of the common DMABUF-aware VMA vm_ops fault handler and
export code.
- Fixed a lot of races, particularly faults racing with DMABUF
cleanup (if the VFIO device fds close, for example).
- Added nicer human-readable names for VFIO mmap() VMAs
RFCv2: Respin based on the feedback/suggestions:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260312184613.3710705-1-mattev@meta.com/
- Transform the existing VFIO BAR mmap path to also use DMABUFs
behind the scenes, and then simply share that code for
explicitly-mapped DMABUFs. Jason wanted to go that direction to
enable iommufd VFIO type 1 emulation to pick up a DMABUF for an IO
mapping.
- Revoke buffers using a VFIO device fd ioctl

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260226202211.929005-1-mattev@meta.com/

The P2PDMA code currently provides two features under the same
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA option:
1. Locate providers via pcim_p2pdma_provider()
2. Manage actual P2P DMA
Some drivers (such as vfio-pci) depend on 1, without having a hard
dependency on 2.
A future commit expands the use of DMABUF in vfio-pci for non-P2P
scenarios, relying on pcim_p2pdma_provider() always being present. If
that depended on CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA, it would make vfio-pci only
available if CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE is present (e.g. 64-bit systems), even
when P2P is not needed.
To resolve this, introduce CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE and refactor the
basic provider functionality into a new p2pdma_core.c file. This is
available even if the CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA feature is disabled (or
unavailable due to !CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE). Then, drivers can enable any
additional P2P features with the original CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA (available
when CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE is set).

Add vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn(), which a VMA fault handler can use to
find a PFN.
This supports multi-range DMABUFs, which typically would be used to
represent scattered spans but might even represent overlapping or
aliasing spans of PFNs.
Because this is intended to be used in vfio_pci_core.c, we also need
to expose the struct vfio_pci_dma_buf in the vfio_pci_priv.h header.

This helper, vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf(), creates a single-range
DMABUF for the purpose of mapping a PCI BAR. This is used in a future
commit by VFIO's ordinary mmap() path.
This function transfers ownership of the VFIO device fd to the
DMABUF, which fput()s when it's released.
Refactor the existing vfio_pci_core_feature_dma_buf() to split out
export code common to the two paths, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF and
this new VFIO_BAR mmap().

Convert the VFIO device fd fops->mmap to create a DMABUF representing
the BAR mapping, and make the VMA fault handler look up PFNs from the
corresponding DMABUF. This supports future code mmap()ing BAR
DMABUFs, and iommufd work to support Type1 P2P.
First, vfio_pci_core_mmap() uses the new
vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf() helper to export a DMABUF
representing a single BAR range. Then, the vfio_pci_mmap_huge_fault()
callback is updated to understand revoked buffers, and uses the new
vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn() helper to determine the PFN for a given
fault address.
Now that the VFIO DMABUFs can be mmap()ed, vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()
zaps PTEs (used on the revocation and cleanup paths).
CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_CORE now unconditionally depends on
CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER and CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE. The
CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF feature conditionally includes support for
VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF, depending on the availability of
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA.

Since converting BAR mmap()s to using DMABUFs, we lose the original
device path in /proc/<pid>/maps, lsof, etc. Generate a debug-oriented
synthetic 'filename' based on the cdev, plus BDF, plus resource index.
This applies only to BAR mappings via the VFIO device fd, as
explicitly-exported DMABUFs are named by userspace via the
DMA_BUF_SET_NAME ioctl.

Previously, vfio_pci_zap_bars() (and the wrapper
vfio_pci_zap_and_down_write_memory_lock()) calls were paired with
calls to vfio_pci_dma_buf_move().
This commit replaces them with a unified new function,
vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars() containing both the vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()
and the unmap_mapping_range(), making it harder for callers to omit
one. It adds a wrapper, vfio_pci_lock_zap_revoke_bars(), which takes
the write memory_lock before zapping, and adds a new
vfio_pci_unrevoke_bars() for the re-enable path.
As of "vfio/pci: Convert BAR mmap() to use a DMABUF", the
unmap_mapping_range() to zap is no longer performed for vfio-pci since
the DMABUFs used for BAR mappings already zap PTEs when the
vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() occurs.
However, it must be assumed that VFIO drivers which override the .mmap
op could create mappings _not_ backed by DMABUFs. So, the zap is
still performed on revoke if .mmap is overridden, using a new
zap_bars_on_revoke flag. A driver can explicitly opt out; the flag is
cleared by the hisi_acc_vfio_pci driver, since its .mmap just wraps
vfio_pci_core_mmap() and so still uses DMABUFs.

A VFIO DMABUF can export a subset of a BAR to userspace by fd; add
support for mmap() of this fd. This provides another route for a
process to map BARs, in which the process can only map a specific
subset of a BAR represented by the exported DMABUF.
mmap() support enables userspace driver designs that safely delegate
access to BAR sub-ranges to other client processes by sharing a DMABUF
fd, without having to share the (omnipotent) VFIO device fd with them.
Since the main VFIO BAR mmap() is now DMABUF-aware, the new mmap() reuses
the existing vm_ops.
The lifecycle of an exported DMABUF remains decoupled from that of the
device fd it came from, i.e. the device fd could be closed with DMABUF
VMAs present, meaning a fault on a VMA could happen concurrently with
vfio_pci_dma_buf_cleanup().
To deal with this scenario, the fault handler now temporarily takes a
VFIO device registration to ensure the vdev remains valid, and then
vdev->memory_lock can be taken on it.

Expand the VFIO DMABUF revocation state to three states:
Not revoked, temporarily revoked, and permanently revoked.
The first two are for existing transient revocation, e.g. across a
function reset, and the DMABUF is put into the last in response to a
new VFIO feature VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF.
VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF passes a DMABUF by fd and requests that
the DMABUF is permanently revoked. On success, it's guaranteed that
the buffer can never be imported/attached/mmap()ed in future, that
dynamic imports have been cleanly detached, and that all mappings have
been made inaccessible/PTEs zapped.
This is useful for lifecycle management, to reclaim VFIO PCI BAR
ranges previously delegated to a subordinate client process: The
driver process can ensure that the loaned resources are revoked when
the client is deemed "done", and exported ranges can be safely re-used
elsewhere.
Refactor the revocation code out of vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() to a
function common to move and the new feature request path.

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.

I thought this was going to be just a code move and new Kconfig
option, but it involves a little more than that, e.g., adding
pci_p2pdma_release_pool() and tweaking the RCU synchronization.
If possible, it would be nice to do that refactoring in a smaller
preliminary patch so it's easier to review/bisect/etc and make this
one a pure code move.
I guess CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE selects just part 1 ("Locate providers
via pcim_p2pdma_provider()"), right?

In this English text, I think I would spell out "Peer to Peer" instead

pci_p2pdma_release_pool() is really part of the split, not a functional
change, i.e. factoring the (P2P-only) pool handling out from the rest of
the pci_p2pdma_release() actions still needed for the _CORE case.
I guess .._release() could be split in place in a small patch, and then
moved alongside the rest in a second.

Yes, I can reword that last paragraph of the commit message to make this
clearer.

I would've preferred that too, it isn't correct; I was seeking to keep
the blurb here (and in p2pdma.h) as close to the original p2pdma.c as
possible. I'll correct it in the new files (hyphenated "peer-to-peer"
in PCI-SIG language).

Nit: Did we drop depends on 64BIT intentionally here? I guess the full
PCI_P2PDMA stack still selects NEED_SG_DMA_FLAGS? IIRC, NEED_SG_DMA_FLAGS
doesn't select 64BIT?
With the nit (and Bjorn's comments addressed)

This could flood dmesg if triggered repeatedly by userspace :(
Since a fault outside the VMA is an invalid access that already results
in a SIGBUS, we could probably avoid the WARN here?

Minor nit: I'm aware that decent compilers convert pow(2) divides to >>
However, we seem to be using `>> PAGE_SHIFT` across vfio-pci. E.g.:
return (pci_resource_start(vdev->pdev, index) >> PAGE_SHIFT) + pgoff;
unsigned long pgoff = (addr - vma->vm_start) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
Let's consider using the same pattern?

The fall-through logic at the end feels a bit redundant.
If we've exhausted the phys_vec list without finding a match, returning
-EAGAIN for order > 0 seems like the correct fallback behavior.
However, the subsequent WARN_ONCE for the order == 0 seems unnecessary?
An out-of-bounds access is an error that should simply return -EFAULT
(converting to SIGBUS) without polluting the kernel log with stackdumps?
Can we instead convert this to a pr_warn or something? Something like:
ret = order ? -EAGAIN : -EFAULT;
if (ret == -EFAULT)
pr_warn_ratelimited("No range for addr 0x%lx...\n", address);
return ret;
(with appropriate comments)
Thanks,
Praan
