There are two ways QEMU can get surface for console: 1. adding a region using region capability 2. dmabuf In both the above case surface parameters need to be queried from vendor driver are same. The structure would be : struct vfio_vgpu_surface_info { __u64 start; __u32 width; __u32 height; __u32 stride; __u32 size; __u32 x_pos; __u32 y_pos; __u32 padding; /* Only used when VFIO_VGPU_SURFACE_DMABUF_* flags set */ __u64 drm_format_mod; __u32 drm_format; }; We can use one ioctl to query surface information from vendor driver, structure would look like: struct vfio_vgpu_get_surface_info{ __u32 argsz; __u32 flags; #define VFIO_VGPU_SURFACE_DMABUF_CREATE (1 << 0) /* Create dmabuf */ #define VFIO_VGPU_SURFACE_DMABUF_QUERY (1 << 1) /* Query surface info for dmabuf */ #define VFIO_VGPU_SURFACE_REGION_QUERY (1 << 2) /* Query surface info for REGION type */ struct vfio_vgpu_surface_info surface; __u32 plane_id; __s32 fd; }; #define VFIO_DEVICE_SURFACE_INFO _IO(VFIO_TYPE, VFIO_BASE + 15) Vendor driver should return -EINVAL, if that type of query is not supported. I would like to design this interface to support both type, region cap and dmabuf. Thanks, Kirti
