[PATCH 0/9] iommu: Prepare to deliver page faults to user space

From: Lu Baolu
Date: Mon Jul 10 2023 - 21:08:40 EST


When a user-managed page table is attached to an IOMMU, it is necessary
to deliver IO page faults to user space so that they can be handled
appropriately. One use case for this is nested translation, which is
currently being discussed in the mailing list.

I have posted a RFC series [1] that describes the implementation of
delivering page faults to user space through IOMMUFD. This series has
received several comments on the IOMMU refactoring, which I have
addressed in this series.

The major refactoring includes:

- Removing include/uapi/linux/iommu.h.
- Removing iommu_[un]register_device_fault_handler().
- Making fault_param always available between iommu device probe and
release.
- Using fault cookie to store temporary data used for processing faults.

This is also available at github [2]. I would appreciate your feedback
on this series.
