Jason Gunthorpe 51fe6141f0 iommufd: Data structure to provide IOVA to PFN mapping
This is the remainder of the IOAS data structure. Provide an object called
an io_pagetable that is composed of iopt_areas pointing at iopt_pages,
along with a list of iommu_domains that mirror the IOVA to PFN map.

At the top this is a simple interval tree of iopt_areas indicating the map
of IOVA to iopt_pages. An xarray keeps track of a list of domains. Based
on the attached domains there is a minimum alignment for areas (which may
be smaller than PAGE_SIZE), an interval tree of reserved IOVA that can't
be mapped and an IOVA of allowed IOVA that can always be mappable.

The concept of an 'access' refers to something like a VFIO mdev that is
accessing the IOVA and using a 'struct page *' for CPU based access.

Externally an API is provided that matches the requirements of the IOCTL
interface for map/unmap and domain attachment.

The API provides a 'copy' primitive to establish a new IOVA map in a
different IOAS from an existing mapping by re-using the iopt_pages. This
is the basic mechanism to provide single pinning.

This is designed to support a pre-registration flow where userspace would
setup an dummy IOAS with no domains, map in memory and then establish an
access to pin all PFNs into the xarray.

Copy can then be used to create new IOVA mappings in a different IOAS,
with iommu_domains attached. Upon copy the PFNs will be read out of the
xarray and mapped into the iommu_domains, avoiding any pin_user_pages()
overheads.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
