We are adding support for DMA memory pre-registration to be used in
conjunction with VFIO. The idea is that the userspace which is going to
run a guest may want to pre-register a user space memory region so
it all gets pinned once and never goes away. Having this done,
a hypervisor will not have to pin/unpin pages on every DMA map/unmap
request. This is going to help with multiple pinning of the same memory
and in-kernel acceleration of DMA requests.

This adds a list of memory regions to mm_context_t. Each region consists
of a header and a list of physical addresses. This adds API to:
1. register/unregister memory regions;
2. do final cleanup (which puts all pre-registered pages);
3. do userspace to physical address translation;
4. manage a mapped pages counter; when it is zero, it is safe to
unregister the region.

Multiple registration of the same region is allowed, kref is used to
track the number of registrations.

Urgh.  I know I'm not one to talk, having done the hugepage crap in
there, but man mm_context_t has grown to a bloated mess from orginally
being just intended as a context ID integer :/.

Where else to put it then?... The other way to go would be some global map
of pid<->iommu_group_mem_list which needs to be available from both VFIO and
KVM.
I'd suggest putting it as a new field in mm_struct, guarded by a
CONFIG_VFIO_PREREGISTER (or something) which you can make sure is
selected by CONFIG_SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU.

Do you really need to call gup() in a loop?  It can do more than one
page at a time..

Ufff. gup() returns the number of pages pinned or -errno if none. So if the
return value is positive but less than the requested number of pages, it is
still an error. Functions like this make me nervous :(

That might work better if you kept a list of struct page *s instead of
hpas.
I only need struct page* when release the registered area. In other cases I
just need fast conversion from an userspace address to a host physical
address, including real mode. Ideally I would have to use page_address()
which will work in real mode in my case but in general it does not have to.
Using addresses rather than page structs makes it more explicit - I need an
address, I store an address, simple.
Ok, you convinced me.  And if you have to translate them each from
struct page to hpa at this point, then the gup() in a loop does make
as much sense as anything, so ok.
I can change to page structs if you think it makes more sense, should I?

What prevents a race between the atomic_read() above and the release below?
Ouch. Nothing. And I cannot think of any nice fast solution here...
I can remove @mapped at all and do kref_get/put(&mem->kref) instead; a
container will hold one reference too. And add a flag to
mm_iommu_table_group_mem_t to know if mm_iommu_release has been called -
this way I will know that was the very last reference, otherwise I'll return
-EBUSY.

Or change mm_iommu_lookup() to do kref_get() and require every caller of it
also call mm_iommu_put() and only call mm_iommu_mapped_update() when the
reference is elevated. And change mm_iommu_put() to return a special code if
that was the very last put() (will be checked by
VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_UNREGISTER_MEMORY handler only, others would not care).

Any ideas?

I am pretty sure there is something very cool (like RCU) which allows
avoiding locks in this situation, I am just too ignorant and do not know it
:)
I can't quickly see an answer either, sorry.

Return type should be int, it's just an error code.

Is it some generic rule that errors must always be "int"? I was just told
that gcc on PPC64 will generate an extra instruction to cut 64bit long to
32bit int so I am just trying to use "long" everywhere. Very simple but
still optimization :)
Ok, I guess leave it.  Probably makes little difference either way.
