Subject: [RFC PATCH 07/12] virtio: locate the device memory buffer after feature negotiation
Date: Sun, 9 Aug 2026 18:20:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260809182010.32931-8-graf@amazon.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260809182010.32931-1-graf@amazon.com>

In preparation to support VIRTIO_F_DMB, locate a device's Device Memory
Buffer once feature negotiation is complete. The shared memory id that
locates the region may only be read after the device has confirmed
FEATURES_OK, and finalize_features() runs before that.

virtio_features_ok() is the one place in the core that has just read
FEATURES_OK back, so locate the region from there, and release it from
virtio_dev_remove() and from the error paths of probe and restore.
Restore and reset completion reach it too, where virtio_dmb_init() keeps
the state of a device reporting the region it had.

Suspend and reset need no handling of their own. Neither
virtio_device_freeze() nor virtio_reset_device() deletes a virtqueue,
and a live virtqueue holds addresses inside the region, so we keep it
across both.
