Test MMIO-backed DMA mappings by iommu_map()-ing mmap'ed BAR regions.
Thanks for adding this!
Also update vfio_pci_bar_map() to align BAR mmaps for efficient huge page mappings.
Only vfio_type1 variants are tested; iommufd variants can be added once kernel support lands.
Are there plans to support mapping BARs via virtual address in iommufd? I thought the plan was only to support via dma-bufs. Maybe Jason can confirm.
Only dmabuf.
Ack. I got confused. I had thought iommufd's vfio container compatibility mode was going to support this, but realized that doesn't make sense given past discussions about the pitfalls of achieving these mappings the legacy way.
Assuming not, should we add negative tests here to make sure iommufd does not allow mapping BARs?
Yes
Will add.
And then we can add dma-buf tests in a future commit.
Yes
