[Qemu-devel] [RFC v2 0/3] intel_iommu: support scalable mode

[Yi Sun]

Intel vt-d rev3.0 [1] introduces a new translation mode called
'scalable mode', which enables PASID-granular translations for
first level, second level, nested and pass-through modes. The
vt-d scalable mode is the key ingredient to enable Scalable I/O
Virtualization (Scalable IOV) [2] [3], which allows sharing a
device in minimal possible granularity (ADI - Assignable Device
Interface). As a result, previous Extended Context (ECS) mode
is deprecated (no production ever implements ECS).

This patch set emulates a minimal capability set of VT-d scalable
mode, equivalent to what is available in VT-d legacy mode today:
    1. Scalable mode root entry, context entry and PASID table
    2. Seconds level translation under scalable mode
    3. Queued invalidation (with 256 bits descriptor)
    4. Pass-through mode

Corresponding intel-iommu driver support will be included in
kernel 5.0:
    https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2985279.html

We will add emulation of full scalable mode capability along with
guest iommu driver progress later, e.g.:
    1. First level translation
    2. Nested translation
    3. Per-PASID invalidation descriptors
    4. Page request services for handling recoverable faults

To verify the patches, below cases were tested according to Peter Xu's
suggestions.

v1->v2

Patch 1:
    - remove unnecessary macros.
    - rename macros to capital.
    - make 're->hi' assignment be unconditional to simplify codes.
    - remove 'vtd_get_context_base' to embed its content into caller.
    - remove 'vtd_context_entry_format' to to embed its content into caller.
    - remove unnecessary memset for 'pe->val'.
    - use 'INTEL_IOMMU_DEVICE' to get 'IntelIOMMUState' to remove input
      'IntelIOMMUState *s' parameter.
    - call 'vtd_get_domain_id' to get domain_id.
    - check error code returned by 'vtd_ce_get_rid2pasid_entry' in
      'vtd_dev_pt_enabled'.
    - check '!is_fpd_set' of context entry before handing pasid entry.
    - move 's->root_scalable' assignment to patch 3.
    - add comment for 'VTD_FR_PASID_TABLE_INV'.
    - remove not used 'VTD_ROOT_ENTRY_SIZE'.
    - change 'VTD_CTX_ENTRY_LECY_SIZE' to 'VTD_CTX_ENTRY_LEGACY_SIZE'.
    - change 'VTD_CTX_ENTRY_SM_SIZE' to 'VTD_CTX_ENTRY_SCALABLE_SIZE'.
    - use union in 'struct VTDContextEntry' to reduce code changes.
Patch 2:
    - modify s-o-b position.
    - remove unnecessary macros.
    - change 'iq_dw' type to bool.
    - remove initialization to 'inv_desc->val[]'.
    - modify 'VTDInvDesc' to add a union 'val[4]' to be compatible
      with both legacy mode and scalable mode.
Patch 3:
    - rename "scalable-mode" to "x-scalable-mode".
    - remove caching_mode check when scalable_mode is set.
    - check dma_drain check when scalable_mode is set. This is requested
      by spec.
    - remove redundant macros.
