Subject: [RFC 16/18] vfio: support not mapping IOMMU pgtables on live-update
Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2024 12:02:01 +0000

When restoring VMs after live update kexec, the IOVAs for the guest VM
are already present in the persisted page tables. It is unnecessary to
clobber the existing pgtable entries and it may introduce races if
pgtable modifications happen concurrently with DMA.

Provide a new VFIO MAP_DMA flag which userspace can supply to inform
VFIO that the IOVAs are already mapped. In this case VFIO will skip over
the call to the IOMMU driver to do the mapping. VFIO still needs the
MAP_DMA ioctl to set up its internal data structures about the mapping.

It would probably be better to move the persistence one layer up and
persist the VFIO container in pkernfs. That way the whole container
could be picked up and re-used without needing to do any MAP_DMA ioctls
after kexec.
