2016-10-31memory: Replace skip_dump flag with "ram_device"Alex Williamson
Setting skip_dump on a MemoryRegion allows us to modify one specific code path, but the restriction we're trying to address encompasses more than that. If we have a RAM MemoryRegion backed by a physical device, it not only restricts our ability to dump that region, but also affects how we should manipulate it. Here we recognize that MemoryRegions do not change to sometimes allow dumps and other times not, so we replace setting the skip_dump flag with a new initializer so that we know exactly the type of region to which we're applying this behavior.

2016-07-18vfio/spapr: Remove stale ioctl() callDavid Gibson
This ioctl() call to VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_TCE_REMOVE was left over from an earlier version of the code and has since been folded into vfio_spapr_remove_window(). It wasn't caught because although the argument structure has been removed, the libc function remove() means this didn't trigger a compile failure. The ioctl() was also almost certain to fail silently and harmlessly with the bogus argument, so this wasn't caught in testing.

2016-07-05vfio/spapr: Create DMA window dynamically (SPAPR IOMMU v2)Alexey Kardashevskiy
New VFIO_SPAPR_TCE_v2_IOMMU type supports dynamic DMA window management. This adds ability to VFIO common code to dynamically allocate/remove DMA windows in the host kernel when new VFIO container is added/removed. This adds a helper to vfio_listener_region_add which makes VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_TCE_CREATE ioctl and adds just created IOMMU into the host IOMMU list; the opposite action is taken in vfio_listener_region_del. When creating a new window, this uses heuristic to decide on the TCE table levels number. This should cause no guest visible change in behavior.

2016-07-05vfio: spapr: Add DMA memory preregistering (SPAPR IOMMU v2)Alexey Kardashevskiy
This makes use of the new "memory registering" feature. The idea is to provide the userspace ability to notify the host kernel about pages which are going to be used for DMA. Having this information, the host kernel can pin them all once per user process, do locked pages accounting (once) and not spent time on doing that in real time with possible failures which cannot be handled nicely in some cases. This adds a prereg memory listener which listens on address_space_memory and notifies a VFIO container about memory which needs to be pinned/unpinned. VFIO MMIO regions (i.e. "skip dump" regions) are skipped. The feature is only enabled for SPAPR IOMMU v2. The host kernel changes are required. Since v2 does not need/support VFIO_IOMMU_ENABLE, this does not call it when v2 is detected and enabled. This enforces guest RAM blocks to be host page size aligned; however this is not new as KVM already requires memory slots to be host page size aligned.
