Subject: [PATCH v5] i2c: virtio: add a virtio i2c frontend driver

Add an I2C bus driver for virtio para-virtualization.

The controller can be emulated by the backend driver in
any device model software by following the virtio protocol.

The device specification can be found on
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202101/msg00008.html.

By following the specification, people may implement different
backend drivers to emulate different controllers according to
their needs.

Why is this a uapi header? Can't this all be moved into the driver
itself?

In particular, this structure looks like it is only ever usable between
the transfer functions in the driver itself, it is shared with neither
user space nor the virtio host side.

Why is it so ? Won't you expect hypervisors or userspace apps to use
these ?

Both this code and the virtio spec (which is already merged) are
missing msgs[i].flags and they are never sent to backend. The only
flags available here are the ones defined by virtio spec and these are
not i2c flags.

I also looked at your i2c backend for acrn and it mistakenly copies
the hdr.flag, which is the virtio flag and not i2c flag.

https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/blob/master/devicemodel/hw/pci/virtio/virtio_i2c.c#L539

I will send a fix for the specs if you agree that there is a problem
here.

what am I missing here ? This should have been caught in your testing
and so I feel I must be missing something.

So by default we don't support any of the existing flags except
I2C_M_RD?

#define I2C_M_IGNORE_NAK 0x1000 /* if I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING */
#define I2C_M_NO_RD_ACK 0x0800 /* if I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING */
#define I2C_M_RECV_LEN 0x0400 /* length will be first received byte */

How do we work with clients who want to use such flags now ?

This is not a problem. My original proposal was to mirror the struct
i2c_msg.
The code you looked at was based on that.
However, the virtio TC prefer not to mirror it. They have some concerns.
For example, there is a bit I2C_M_RD in i2c_msg.flag which has the same
meaning with
the R/W in virtio descriptor. This is a repetition which may cause problems.
So the virtio_i2c_out_hdr.flags is used to instead of i2c_msg.flags for
extension.

You can check this link
https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec/issues/88 to learn the whole story.
There are discussions about the spec (v1 ~ v7).

I'm updating these drivers step by step to make sure they finally follow
the spec.

Yes. That's the current status.

My plan is to have a minimum driver get merged. Then we have a base and
we can
update virtio_i2c_out_hdr.flags for the feature extensibility. Then, If
you want to help to develop
this stuff, you can just follow the same flow. First, you can update the
Spec by sending
comments to [email protected]. Once your Spec patch is
acked by the
virtio TC, you can then send patches to update the corresponding drivers.

Thanks.
