Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 7/9] vfio/pci: Clean up BAR zap and revocation
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 18:00:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715180046.461811F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715174737.15287-8-matt@ozlabs.org>
> 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_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_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 zap via
> unmap_mapping_range() 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.
