[PATCH RFC 00/13] dmaengine: Smart Data Accelerator Interface (SDXI) basic support

[Nathan Lynch via B4 Relay <devnull+nathan.lynch.amd.com@kernel.org>]

The Smart Data Accelerator Interface (SDXI) is a vendor-neutral
architecture for memory-to-memory data movement offload designed for
kernel bypass and virtualization.

General information on SDXI may be found at:
https://www.snia.org/sdxi

This submission adds a driver with basic support for PCIe-hosted SDXI 1.0
implementations and includes a DMA engine provider.

It is very much a work in progress. Among other issues, the DMA
provider code only supports single-threaded polled mode, and context
management should use better data structures.

While we're addressing those shortcomings, we'd appreciate any
feedback on:

* Where the code should live. SDXI entails a fair amount of code for
  context and descriptor management, and we expect to eventually add a
  character device ABI for user space access. Should all of this go in
  drivers/dma/sdxi?

* Whether the DMA engine provider should use virt-dma/vchan. SDXI
  submission queues can be almost arbitrarily large, and I'm not sure
  putting a software queue in front of that makes sense.

Planned future SDXI work (out of scope for this series):

* Character device for user space access. We are evaluating the uacce
  framework for this.

* Support for operation types to be added in future SDXI revisions.

* Greater configurability for control structures, e.g. descriptor ring
  size.

The latest released version of the SDXI specification is 1.0:
