[PATCH v2] vhost: introduce mdev based hardware backend

From: Tiwei Bie
Date: Tue Oct 22 2019 - 05:56:26 EST


This patch introduces a mdev based hardware vhost backend.
This backend is built on top of the same abstraction used
in virtio-mdev and provides a generic vhost interface for
userspace to accelerate the virtio devices in guest.

This backend is implemented as a mdev device driver on top
of the same mdev device ops used in virtio-mdev but using
a different mdev class id, and it will register the device
as a VFIO device for userspace to use. Userspace can setup
the IOMMU with the existing VFIO container/group APIs and
then get the device fd with the device name. After getting
the device fd of this device, userspace can use vhost ioctls
to setup the backend.

This patch depends on below series:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/17/286

v1 -> v2:
- Replace _SET_STATE with _SET_STATUS (MST);
- Check status bits at each step (MST);
- Report the max ring size and max number of queues (MST);
- Add missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE (Jason);
- Only support the network backend w/o multiqueue for now;
- Some minor fixes and improvements;
- Rebase on top of virtio-mdev series v4;

RFC v4 -> v1:
- Implement vhost-mdev as a mdev device driver directly and
connect it to VFIO container/group. (Jason);
- Pass ring addresses as GPAs/IOVAs in vhost-mdev to avoid
meaningless HVA->GPA translations (Jason);

RFC v3 -> RFC v4:
- Build vhost-mdev on top of the same abstraction used by
virtio-mdev (Jason);
- Introduce vhost fd and pass VFIO fd via SET_BACKEND ioctl (MST);

RFC v2 -> RFC v3:
- Reuse vhost's ioctls instead of inventing a VFIO regions/irqs
based vhost protocol on top of vfio-mdev (Jason);

RFC v1 -> RFC v2:
- Introduce a new VFIO device type to build a vhost protocol
on top of vfio-mdev;
