[PATCH v7 3/4] vhost-vdpa: uAPI to suspend the device

Eugenio Pérez
2022-08-10T17:16:01Z

The ioctl adds support for suspending the device from userspace.

This is a must before getting virtqueue indexes (base) for live migration,
since the device could modify them after userland gets them. There are
individual ways to perform that action for some devices
(VHOST_NET_SET_BACKEND, VHOST_VSOCK_SET_RUNNING, ...) but there was no
way to perform it for any vhost device (and, in particular, vhost-vdpa).

After a successful return of the ioctl call the device must not process
more virtqueue descriptors. The device can answer to read or writes of
config fields as if it were not suspended. In particular, writing to
"queue_enable" with a value of 1 will not make the device start
processing buffers of the virtqueue.
