When the user unbinds the last device of a group from a vfio bus
driver, the devices within that group should be available for other
purposes. We currently have a race that makes this generally, but
not always true. The device can be unbound from the vfio bus driver,
but remaining IOMMU context of the group attached to the container
can result in errors as the next driver configures DMA for the device.
Wait for the group to be detached from the IOMMU backend before
allowing the bus driver remove callback to complete.

In vfio_iommu_group_get() we want to increase the reference
count of the iommu group.
In noiommu case, the group does not exist and is allocated.
iommu_group_add_device() increases the group ref count. However we
then call iommu_group_put() which decrements it.
This leads to a "refcount_t: underflow WARN_ON".
Only decrement the ref count in case of iommu_group_add_device
failure.

The original intent of vfio_container.group_lock is to protect
vfio_container.group_list, however over time it's become a crutch to
prevent changes in container composition any time we call into the
iommu driver backend. This introduces problems when we start to have
more complex interactions, for example when a user's DMA unmap request
triggers a notification to an mdev vendor driver, who responds by
attempting to unpin mappings within that request, re-entering the
iommu backend. We incorrectly assume that the use of read-locks here
allow for this nested locking behavior, but a poorly timed write-lock
could in fact trigger a deadlock.
The current use of group_lock seems to fall into the trap of locking
code, not data. Correct that by removing uses of group_lock that are
not directly related to group_list. Note that the vfio type1 iommu
backend has its own mutex, vfio_iommu.lock, which it uses to protect
itself for each of these interfaces anyway. The group_lock appears to
be a redundancy for these interfaces and type1 even goes so far as to
release its mutex to allow for exactly the re-entrant code path above.

At the point where the kvm-vfio pseudo device wants to release its
vfio group reference, we can't always acquire a new reference to make
that happen. The group can be in a state where we wouldn't allow a
new reference to be added. This new helper function allows a caller
to match a file to a group to facilitate this. Given a file and
group, report if they match. Thus the caller needs to already have a
group reference to match to the file. This allows the deletion of a
group without acquiring a new reference.

If vfio_iommu_group_notifier() acquires a group reference and that
reference becomes the last reference to the group, then vfio_group_put
introduces a deadlock code path where we're trying to unregister from
the iommu notifier chain from within a callout of that chain. Use a
work_struct to release this reference asynchronously.

The intent of the original warning is make sure that the mdev vendor
driver has removed any group notifiers at the point where the group
is closed by the user. Theoretically this would be through an
orderly shutdown where any devices are release prior to the group
release. We can't always count on an orderly shutdown, the user can
close the group before the notifier can be removed or the user task
might be killed. We'd like to add this sanity test when the group is
idle and the only references are from the devices within the group
themselves, but we don't have a good way to do that. Instead check
both when the group itself is removed and when the group is opened.
A bit later than we'd prefer, but better than the current over
aggressive approach.

Consider an IOMMU to be an API rather than an implementation, we might
have multiple implementations supporting the same API, so try another
if one fails. The expectation here is that we'll really only have
one implementation per device type. For instance the existing type1
driver works with any PCI device where the IOMMU API is available. A
vGPU vendor may have a virtual PCI device which provides DMA isolation
and mapping through other mechanisms, but can re-use userspaces that
make use of the type1 VFIO IOMMU API. This allows that to work.

Using iommu_present() to determine whether an IOMMU group is real or
fake has some problems. First, apparently Power systems don't
register an IOMMU on the device bus, so the groups and containers get
marked as noiommu and then won't bind to their actual IOMMU driver.
Second, I expect we'll run into the same issue as we try to support
vGPUs through vfio, since they're likely to emulate this behavior of
creating an IOMMU group on a virtual device and then providing a vfio
IOMMU backend tailored to the sort of isolation they provide, which
won't necessarily be fully compatible with the IOMMU API.
The solution here is to use the existing iommudata interface to IOMMU
groups, which allows us to easily identify the fake groups we've
created for noiommu purposes. The iommudata we set is purely
arbitrary since we're only comparing the address, so we use the
address of the noiommu switch itself.

There is really no way to safely give a user full access to a DMA
capable device without an IOMMU to protect the host system. There is
also no way to provide DMA translation, for use cases such as device
assignment to virtual machines. However, there are still those users
that want userspace drivers even under those conditions. The UIO
driver exists for this use case, but does not provide the degree of
device access and programming that VFIO has. In an effort to avoid
code duplication, this introduces a No-IOMMU mode for VFIO.
This mode requires building VFIO with CONFIG_VFIO_NOIOMMU and enabling
the "enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode" option on the vfio driver. This
should make it very clear that this mode is not safe. Additionally,
CAP_SYS_RAWIO privileges are necessary to work with groups and
containers using this mode. Groups making use of this support are
named /dev/vfio/noiommu-$GROUP and can only make use of the special
VFIO_NOIOMMU_IOMMU for the container. Use of this mode, specifically
binding a device without a native IOMMU group to a VFIO bus driver
will taint the kernel and should therefore not be considered
supported. This patch includes no-iommu support for the vfio-pci bus
driver only.

When we open a device file descriptor, we currently have the
following:
vfio_group_get_device_fd()
mutex_lock(&group->device_lock);
open()
...
if (ret)
release()
If we hit that error case, we call the backend driver release path,
which for vfio-pci looks like this:
vfio_pci_release()
vfio_pci_disable()
vfio_pci_try_bus_reset()
vfio_pci_get_devs()
vfio_device_get_from_dev()
vfio_group_get_device()
mutex_lock(&group->device_lock);
Whoops, we've stumbled back onto group.device_lock and created a
deadlock. There's a low likelihood of ever seeing this play out, but
obviously it needs to be fixed. To do that we can use a reference to
the vfio_device for vfio_group_get_device_fd() rather than holding the
lock. There was a loop in this function, theoretically allowing
multiple devices with the same name, but in practice we don't expect
such a thing to happen and the code is already aborting from the loop
with break on any sort of error rather than continuing and only
parsing the first match anyway, so the loop was effectively unused
already.

Testing the driver for a PCI device is racy, it can be all but
complete in the release path and still report the driver as ours.
Therefore we can't trust drvdata to be valid. This race can sometimes
be seen when one port of a multifunction device is being unbound from
the vfio-pci driver while another function is being released by the
user and attempting a bus reset. The device in the remove path is
found as a dependent device for the bus reset of the release path
device, the driver is still set to vfio-pci, but the drvdata has
already been cleared, resulting in a null pointer dereference.
To resolve this, fix vfio_device_get_from_dev() to not take the
dev_get_drvdata() shortcut and instead traverse through the
iommu_group, vfio_group, vfio_device path to get a reference we
can trust. Once we have that reference, we know the device isn't
in transition and we can test to make sure the driver is still what
we expect, so that we don't interfere with devices we don't own.

An unintended consequence of commit 42ac9bd18d4f ("vfio: initialize

That's a user visible change that may break module loading scritps
and it imposes eventfd support as a dependency on the core vfio code,
which it's really not. virqfd is intended to be provided as a service
to vfio bus drivers, so instead of wrapping it into vfio.ko, we can
make it a stand-alone module toggled by vfio bus drivers. This has

There's a small window between the vfio bus driver calling
vfio_del_group_dev() and the device being completely unbound where
the vfio group appears to be non-viable. This creates a race for
users like QEMU/KVM where the kvm-vfio module tries to get an
external reference to the group in order to match and release an
existing reference, while the device is potentially being removed
from the vfio bus driver. If the group is momentarily non-viable,
kvm-vfio may not be able to release the group reference until VM
shutdown, making the group unusable until that point.
Bridge the gap between device removal from the group and completion
of the driver unbind by tracking it in a list. The device is added
to the list before the bus driver reference is released and removed
using the existing unbind notifier.

Macro get_unused_fd() is used to allocate a file descriptor with

O_CLOEXEC must be used by default to not leak file descriptor
across exec().
Instead of macro get_unused_fd(), functions anon_inode_getfd()
or get_unused_fd_flags() should be used with flags given by userspace.
If not possible, flags should be set to O_CLOEXEC to provide userspace
with a default safe behavor.
In a further patch, get_unused_fd() will be removed so that
new code start using anon_inode_getfd() or get_unused_fd_flags()
with correct flags.
This patch replaces calls to get_unused_fd() with equivalent call to
get_unused_fd_flags(0) to preserve current behavor for existing code.
The hard coded flag value (0) should be reviewed on a per-subsystem basis,

VFIO is designed to be used via ioctls on file descriptors
returned by VFIO.
However in some situations support for an external user is required.
The first user is KVM on PPC64 (SPAPR TCE protocol) which is going to
use the existing VFIO groups for exclusive access in real/virtual mode
on a host to avoid passing map/unmap requests to the user space which
would made things pretty slow.
The protocol includes:
1. do normal VFIO init operation:
- opening a new container;
- attaching group(s) to it;
- setting an IOMMU driver for a container.
When IOMMU is set for a container, all groups in it are
considered ready to use by an external user.
2. User space passes a group fd to an external user.
The external user calls vfio_group_get_external_user()
to verify that:
- the group is initialized;
- IOMMU is set for it.
If both checks passed, vfio_group_get_external_user()
increments the container user counter to prevent
the VFIO group from disposal before KVM exits.
3. The external user calls vfio_external_user_iommu_id()
to know an IOMMU ID. PPC64 KVM uses it to link logical bus
number (LIOBN) with IOMMU ID.
4. When the external KVM finishes, it calls
vfio_group_put_external_user() to release the VFIO group.
This call decrements the container user counter.
Everything gets released.
The "vfio: Limit group opens" patch is also required for the consistency.

Remove debugging WARN_ON if we get a spurious notify for a group that
no longer exists. No reports of anyone hitting this, but it would
likely be a race and not a bug if they did.

BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE triggers IOMMU drivers to remove devices from
their iommu group, but there's really nothing we can do about it at
this point. If the device is in use, then the vfio sub-driver will
block the device_del from completing until it's released. If the
device is not in use or not owned by a vfio sub-driver, then we
really don't care that it's being removed.
The current code can be triggered just by unloading an sr-iov driver
(ex. igb) while the VFs are attached to vfio-pci because it makes an
incorrect assumption about the ordering of driver remove callbacks
vs the DEL_DEVICE notification.

vfio_group_fops_open attempts to limit concurrent sessions by
disallowing opens once group->container is set. This really doesn't
do what we want and allow for inconsistent behavior, for instance a
group can be opened twice, then a container set giving the user two
file descriptors to the group. But then it won't allow more to be
opened. There's not much reason to have the group opened multiple
times since most access is through devices or the container, so
complete what the original code intended and only allow a single
instance.

VFIO implements platform independent stuff such as
a PCI driver, BAR access (via read/write on a file descriptor
or direct mapping when possible) and IRQ signaling.
The platform dependent part includes IOMMU initialization
and handling. This implements an IOMMU driver for VFIO
which does mapping/unmapping pages for the guest IO and
provides information about DMA window (required by a POWER
guest).

devtmpfs_delete_node() calls devnode() callback with mode==NULL but
vfio still tries to write there.
The patch fixes this.
