The vfio_info_add_capability() helper requires the caller to pass a
capability ID, which it then uses to fill in header fields, assuming
hard coded versions. This makes for an awkward and rigid interface.
The only thing we want this helper to do is allocate sufficient
space in the caps buffer and chain this capability into the list.
Reduce it to that simple task.

When CONFIG_EEH=y and CONFIG_VFIO_SPAPR_EEH=n, build fails with the
following:
drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.o: In function `.vfio_pci_release':
vfio_pci.c:(.text+0xa98): undefined reference to `.vfio_spapr_pci_eeh_release'

vfio_pci.c:(.text+0x1420): undefined reference to `.vfio_spapr_pci_eeh_open'
In this case, vfio_pci.c should use the empty definitions of
vfio_spapr_pci_eeh_open and vfio_spapr_pci_eeh_release functions.
This patch fixes it by guarding these function definitions with
CONFIG_VFIO_SPAPR_EEH, the symbol that controls whether vfio_spapr_eeh.c is
built, which is where the non-empty versions of these functions are. We need to
make use of IS_ENABLED() macro because CONFIG_VFIO_SPAPR_EEH is a tristate
option.
This issue was found during a randconfig build. Logs are here:

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.

Rename:
wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t
'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.
Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.
This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

There is really no way to safely give a user full access to a DMA

that want userspace drivers even under those conditions. The UIO
driver exists for this use case, but does not provide the degree of

This mode requires building VFIO with CONFIG_VFIO_NOIOMMU and enabling
the "enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode" option on the vfio driver. This

CAP_SYS_RAWIO privileges are necessary to work with groups and

An unintended consequence of commit 42ac9bd18d ("vfio: initialize
the virqfd workqueue in VFIO generic code") is that the vfio module
is renamed to vfio_core so that it can include both vfio and virqfd.
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
the additional benefit of removing initialization and exit from the
core vfio code.

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.

Add PCI device support for VFIO. PCI devices expose regions
for accessing config space, I/O port space, and MMIO areas
of the device. PCI config access is virtualized in the kernel,
allowing us to ensure the integrity of the system, by preventing
various accesses while reducing duplicate support across various
userspace drivers. I/O port supports read/write access while
MMIO also supports mmap of sufficiently sized regions. Support
for INTx, MSI, and MSI-X interrupts are provided using eventfds to
userspace.

This VFIO IOMMU backend is designed primarily for AMD-Vi and Intel
VT-d hardware, but is potentially usable by anything supporting
similar mapping functionality. We arbitrarily call this a Type1
backend for lack of a better name. This backend has no IOVA
or host memory mapping restrictions for the user and is optimized
for relatively static mappings. Mapped areas are pinned into system
memory.

VFIO is a secure user level driver for use with both virtual machines
and user level drivers. VFIO makes use of IOMMU groups to ensure the
isolation of devices in use, allowing unprivileged user access. It's
intended that VFIO will replace KVM device assignment and UIO drivers
(in cases where the target platform includes a sufficiently capable
IOMMU).
New in this version of VFIO is support for IOMMU groups managed
through the IOMMU core as well as a rework of the API, removing the
group merge interface. We now go back to a model more similar to
original VFIO with UIOMMU support where the file descriptor obtained
from /dev/vfio/vfio allows access to the IOMMU, but only after a
group is added, avoiding the previous privilege issues with this type
of model. IOMMU support is also now fully modular as IOMMUs have
vastly different interface requirements on different platforms. VFIO
users are able to query and initialize the IOMMU model of their
choice.
Please see the follow-on Documentation commit for further description
and usage example.
