Subject: [PATCH v6 02/15] iommu: Report domain nesting info

IOMMUs that support nesting translation needs report the capability info
to userspace. It gives information about requirements the userspace needs
to implement plus other features characterizing the physical implementation.

This patch reports nesting info by DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING. Caller can get
nesting info after setting DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING. For VFIO, it is after
selecting VFIO_TYPE1_NESTING_IOMMU.

*) rename @size of struct iommu_nesting_info to @argsz.

v4 -> v5:
*) address comments from Eric Auger.

v3 -> v4:
*) split the SMMU driver changes to be a separate patch
*) move the @addr_width and @pasid_bits from vendor specific
part to generic part.
*) tweak the description for the @features field of struct
iommu_nesting_info.

v2 -> v3:
*) remvoe cap/ecap_mask in iommu_nesting_info.
*) reuse DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING to get nesting info.
*) return an empty iommu_nesting_info for SMMU drivers per Jean'
suggestion.

This is not what this patch does ;-) It introduces a new IOMMU UAPI
struct that gives information about the nesting capabilities and
features. This struct is supposed to be returned by
iommu_domain_get_attr() with DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING attribute parameter,
one a domain whose type has been set to DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING.

As opposed to other IOMMU UAPI structs there is no union member at the
end. Also this struct is not documented in [PATCH v7 1/7] docs: IOMMU
user API. Shouldn't we align.

You may also consider to move this patch in Jacob's series for
consistency, thoughts?

nice catch. do you think it would be better to adding a union and
put the struct iommu_nesting_info_vtd in it?

this was talked one time between Jacob and me. It was put in this
series as the major user of nesting_info is in this series. e.g.
vfio checks the SYSWIDE_PASID. but I'm open to merge it with Jacob's
series if it would make the merge easier.

Yes I think so. At least it would be consistent with the rest of the API
and with the guidelines.

Yep I think it would make sense to move in Jacob's series to have a
general understanding of the uapi

I a little reluctant to include this in my UAPI set, the reason is that
there are two dimensions IOMMU UAPI are extended:
1. Define the protocols in interaction with VFIO, sanity checking, and
backward compatibility.
2. Adding more UAPI data structures that are parallel to the existing
ones.

My patchset is to address #1, this patch is for #2. My thinking is that
once we have reached consensus on #1, new UAPI structures such as this
patch can just follow the suit.

If that is OK with you, I would like to keep them separate to avoid
diverging conversations.

Jacob

OK no problem for me, as long as the new APIs follow the rules &
guidelines introduced in your series.
