Hi all,
This series is based on previous RFCs/discussions:
Tech topic: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20250918214425.2677057-1-amastro@fb.com/
RFCv1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260226202211.929005-1-mattev@meta.com/
RFCv2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260312184613.3710705-1-mattev@meta.com/
The background/rationale is covered in more detail in the RFC cover
letters. The TL;DR is:
The goal is to enable userspace driver designs that use VFIO to export
DMABUFs representing subsets of PCI device BARs, and "vend" those
buffers from a primary process to other subordinate processes by fd.
These processes then mmap() the buffers and their access to the device
is isolated to the exported ranges. This is an improvement on sharing
the VFIO device fd to subordinate processes, which would allow
unfettered access.
This is achieved by enabling mmap() of vfio-pci DMABUFs, passed by fd
to subordinate processes. Second, a new ioctl()-based revocation
mechanism is added to allow the primary process to forcibly revoke
access to previously-shared BAR spans, even if the subordinate
processes haven't cleanly exited.
(The related topic of safe delegation of iommufd control to the
subordinate processes is not addressed here, and is follow-up work.)
As well as isolation and revocation, another advantage to accessing a
BAR through a VMA backed by a DMABUF is that it's straightforward to
mmap() the buffer with access attributes, such as write-combining.
Feedback from the RFCs requested that, instead of creating
DMABUF-specific vm_ops and .fault paths, to go the whole way and
migrate the existing VFIO PCI BAR mmap() to be backed by a DMABUF too,
resulting in a common vm_ops and fault handler for mmap()s of both the
VFIO device and explicitly-exported DMABUFs. This will help future
iommufd emulation of VFIO Type1 peer-to-peer, making it easier to get
a DMABUF for a VFIO BAR as a DMA target.
mmap() conversion to use DMABUF underneath has been done for vfio-pci,
but not sub-drivers:
nvgrace-gpu's mmap() override path is unchanged; I kept this out of
scope for now not least because I don't have a thorough test setup
for this system. I would prefer to help the nvgrace-gpu maintainers
enable BAR mmap() DMABUFs themselves.
Notes on patches
================
PCI/P2PDMA: Add CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE
Later in the series, vfio-pci's mmap() is going to depend on
pcim_p2pdma_provider() which depended on CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA, which
in turn depended on ZONE_DEVICE (which isn't available on 32-bit
and some archs, because they lack MEMORY_HOTPLUG and friends).
VFIO does _not_ require actual P2P to be present for basic mmap()
functionality, only for the optional CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER
feature.
This splits P2PDMA into a CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE (which currently
contains pcim_p2pdma_provider()) and an optional CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA
(which depends on ZONE_DEVICE etc., and provides P2P
functionality).
vfio/pci: Add a helper to look up PFNs for DMABUFs
vfio/pci: Add a helper to create a DMABUF for a BAR-map VMA
The first is for a DMABUF VMA fault handler to determine
arbitrary-sized PFNs from ranges in DMABUF. Secondly, refactor
DMABUF export for use by the existing export feature and add a new
helper that creates a DMABUF corresponding to a VFIO BAR mmap()
request.
vfio/pci: Convert BAR mmap() to use a DMABUF
The vfio-pci core mmap() creates a DMABUF with the helper, and the
vm_ops fault handler uses the other helper to resolve the fault.
Because this depends on DMABUF structs/code, CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_CORE
needs to depend on CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER. The
CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF still conditionally enables the export
support code.
NOTE: The user mmap()s a device fd, but the resulting VMA's vm_file
becomes that of the DMABUF which takes ownership of the device and
puts it on release. This maintains the existing behaviour of a VMA
keeping the VFIO device open.
BAR zapping then happens via the existing vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()
path, which now needs to unmap PTEs in the DMABUF's address_space.
vfio/pci: Provide a user-facing name for BAR mappings
There was a request for decent debug naming in /proc/<pid>/maps
etc. comparable to the existing VFIO names: since the VMAs are
DMABUFs, they have a "dmabuf:" prefix and can't be 100% identical
to before. This is a user-visible change, but this patch at least
now gives us extra info on the BDF & BAR being mapped.
vfio/pci: Clean up BAR zap and revocation
In general (see NOTE!) the vfio_pci_zap_bars() is now obsolete,
since it unmaps PTEs in the VFIO device address_space which is now
unused. This consolidates all calls (e.g. around reset) with the
neighbouring vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()s into new functions, to
revoke-zap/unrevoke.
!!! NOTE: the nvgrace-gpu driver continues to use its own private
vm_ops, fault handler, etc. for its special memregions, and these
DO still add PTEs to the VFIO device address_space. So, a
temporary flag, vdev->bar_needs_zap, maintains the old behaviour
for this use. At least this patch's consolidation makes it easy to
remove the remaining zap when this need goes away; a FIXME reminds
that this can be removed when nvgrace-gpu is converted.
vfio/pci: Support mmap() of a VFIO DMABUF
Adds mmap() for a DMABUF fd exported from vfio-pci.
It was a goal to keep the VFIO device fd lifetime behaviour
unchanged with respect to the DMABUFs. An application can close
all device fds, and this will revoke/clean up all DMABUFs; no
mappings or other access can be performed now. When enabling
mmap() of the DMABUFs, this means access through the VMA is also
revoked. This complicates the fault handler because whilst the
DMABUF exists, it has no guarantee that the corresponding VFIO
device is still alive. Adds synchronisation ensuring the vdev is
available before vdev->memory_lock is touched; this holds the
device registration so that even if the buffer has been cleaned up,
vdev hasn't been freed and so the lock can be safely taken.
(I decided against the alternative of preventing cleanup by holding
the VFIO device open if any DMABUFs exist, because it's both a
change of behaviour and less clean overall.)
I've added a chonky comment in place, happy to clarify more if you
have ideas.
This commit makes VFIO_PCI_CORE depend on PCI_P2PDMA_CORE (commit
1) to bring in (only) the P2PDMA provider code.
vfio/pci: Permanently revoke a DMABUF on request
By weight, this is mostly a rename of revoked to an enum, status.
There are now 3 states for a buffer, usable and revoked
temporary/permanent. A new VFIO device ioctl is added,
VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_DMABUF_REVOKE, which passes a DMABUF (exported from
that device) and permanently revokes it. Thus a userspace driver
can guarantee any downstream consumers of a shared fd are prevented
from accessing a BAR range, and that range can be reused.
The code doing revocation in vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() is moved,
unchanged, to a common function for use by _move() and the new
ioctl path.
Q: I can't think of a good reason to temporarily revoke/unrevoke
buffers from userspace, so didn't add a 'flags' field to the ioctl
struct. Easy to add if people think it's worthwhile for future
use.
vfio/pci: Add mmap() attributes to DMABUF feature
Adds a new VFIO feature, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR.
After a DMABUF is exported, this feature ioctl() isused to set a
memory attribute that will be used by future mmap()s of the DMABUF
fd (i.e. it does nothing for any existing maps).
The default is UC, and via the feature one can specify CPU access
as WC. The attribute is an enum/scalar rather than
bitmap/cumulative. The attributes follow a "try-fail" model where
a client can request an attribute and either succeed or fail with
ENOTSUPP if it's unknown; if future attributes are
platform-specific then their support can be probed.
(Since it's just UC/WC for now, there is no reservation or numeric
structure to the namespace yet, but we could support
system/arch-specific values in future by carving out base +
arch-specific + IMPDEF ranges.)
Testing
=======
(The [RFC ONLY] userspace test program, for QEMU edu-plus, has been
dropped from the series, but can be found in the GitHub branch below.
It at least illustrates the export, map, revoke, attribute, and close
semantics interoperate.)
This code has been tested in mapping DMABUFs of single/multiple
ranges, aliasing mmap()s, aliasing ranges across DMABUFs, vm_pgoff >
0, revocation, shutdown/cleanup scenarios, and hugepage mappings seem
to work correctly. I've lightly tested WC mappings also (by observing
resulting PTEs as having the correct attributes...). No regressions
observed on the VFIO selftests, or on our internal vfio-pci
applications.
End
===
This is based on VFIO next (e.g. at b9285405c5f6).
These commits are on GitHub for easier browsing, along with
"[RFC ONLY] selftests: vfio: Add standalone vfio_dmabuf_mmap_test":

Thanks for reading,
Matt
================================================================================
Change log:
v2:
- Rebase on VFIO next, picking up Alex's
vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()/vfio_pci_dma_buf_cleanup() fixes, and
dropping "vfio/pci: Fix vfio_pci_dma_buf_cleanup() double-put"
- Added "PCI/P2PDMA: Add CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE" so that the
newly-added vfio-pci hard dependency on the P2PDMA provider instead
pulls in the _CORE variant and not the full-fat CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA.
This means that the core of vfio-pci does not need ZONE_DEVICE, but
if it's available then enabling P2PDMA in turn enables DMABUF
export. Fixes basic VFIO operation on 32b or other platforms without
ZONE_DEVICE.
- Fixed comment inaccuracy in vfio_pci_dma_buf_revoke() and cleaned
up vdev validity test.
- vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn(): use PAGE_ALIGN(), better span variable
naming, OVF check
- Made vm_pgoffs use consistent (keeping the resource index at the
top and masking where offset is used). For BAR mmap, use new
vma_pgoff_adjust to create the DMABUF with the exact mmap()ed span
instead of from the start of the BAR with an invisible portion
before the mapping.
- Added VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR to set memory attributes,
instead of using the export `flags` field.
- vfio_pci_ioctl_reset: Moved vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars()
(effectively, vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()) back after D0 transition.
Note, if a BAR zap is needed, it's done in this function so now
happens after this D0 transition with the _move; it was done before
it at the time of the memory_lock taking.
- Minimised vfio_pci_dma_buf_mmap() (removed redundant span check),
added READ_ONCE for memattr
- Misc fixes: comment in DMABUF name generation, removed superfluous
READ_ONCE from faulthandler
v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260416131815.2729131-1-mattev@meta.com/
- Cleanup of the common DMABUF-aware VMA vm_ops fault handler and
export code.
- Fixed a lot of races, particularly faults racing with DMABUF
cleanup (if the VFIO device fds close, for example).
- Added nicer human-readable names for VFIO mmap() VMAs
RFCv2: Respin based on the feedback/suggestions:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260312184613.3710705-1-mattev@meta.com/
- Transform the existing VFIO BAR mmap path to also use DMABUFs
behind the scenes, and then simply share that code for
explicitly-mapped DMABUFs. Jason wanted to go that direction to
enable iommufd VFIO type 1 emulation to pick up a DMABUF for an IO
mapping.
- Revoke buffers using a VFIO device fd ioctl
RFCv1:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260226202211.929005-1-mattev@meta.com/

The P2PDMA code currently provides two features under the same
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA option:
1. Locate providers via pcim_p2pdma_provider()
2. Manage actual P2P DMA
Other code (such as vfio-pci) depends on 1, without having a hard
dependency on 2.
A future commit expands the use of DMABUF in vfio-pci for non-P2P
scenarios, relying on pcim_p2pdma_provider() always being present. If
that depended on CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA, it would make vfio-pci only
available if CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE is present (e.g. 64-bit systems), even
when P2P is not needed.
To resolve this, introduce CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE which contains the
basic provider functionality to make it available even if the
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA feature is disabled or unavailable due to
!CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE. Users such as vfio-pci can enable their own P2P
features based off the original CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA (available when
CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE is set).

Add vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn(), which a VMA fault handler can use to
find a PFN.
This supports multi-range DMABUFs, which typically would be used to
represent scattered spans but might even represent overlapping or
aliasing spans of PFNs.
Because this is intended to be used in vfio_pci_core.c, we also need
to expose the struct vfio_pci_dma_buf in the vfio_pci_priv.h header.

This helper, vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf(), creates a single-range
DMABUF for the purpose of mapping a PCI BAR. This is used in a future
commit by VFIO's ordinary mmap() path.
This function transfers ownership of the VFIO device fd to the
DMABUF, which fput()s when it's released.
Refactor the existing vfio_pci_core_feature_dma_buf() to split out
export code common to the two paths, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF and
this new VFIO_BAR mmap().

Convert the VFIO device fd fops->mmap to create a DMABUF representing
the BAR mapping, and make the VMA fault handler look up PFNs from the
corresponding DMABUF. This supports future code mmap()ing BAR
DMABUFs, and iommufd work to support Type1 P2P.
First, vfio_pci_core_mmap() uses the new
vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf() helper to export a DMABUF
representing a single BAR range. Then, the vfio_pci_mmap_huge_fault()
callback is updated to understand revoked buffers, and uses the new
vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn() helper to determine the PFN for a given
fault address.
Now that the VFIO DMABUFs can be mmap()ed, vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()
zaps PTEs (used on the revocation and cleanup paths).
CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_CORE now unconditionally depends on
CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER and CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA_CORE. The
CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF feature conditionally includes support for
VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF, depending on the availability of
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA.

Since converting BAR mmap()s to using DMABUFs, we lose the original
device path in /proc/<pid>/maps, lsof, etc. Generate a debug-oriented
synthetic 'filename' based on the cdev, plus BDF, plus resource index.
This applies only to BAR mappings via the VFIO device fd, as
explicitly-exported DMABUFs are named by userspace via the
DMA_BUF_SET_NAME ioctl.

Previously, vfio_pci_zap_bars() (and the wrapper
vfio_pci_zap_and_down_write_memory_lock()) calls were paired with
calls of vfio_pci_dma_buf_move().
This commit replaces them a unified new function,
vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars() containing both the vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()
and the unmap_mapping_range(), making it harder for callers to omit
one. It adds a wrapper, vfio_pci_lock_zap_revoke_bars(), which takes
the write memory_lock before zapping, and adds a new
vfio_pci_unrevoke_bars() for the re-enable path.
However, as of "vfio/pci: Convert BAR mmap() to use a DMABUF" the
unmap_mapping_range() to zap is entirely redundant for plain vfio-pci,
since the DMABUFs used for BAR mappings already zap PTEs when the
vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() occurs.
One exception remains as a FIXME: in nvgrace-gpu, some BAR VMAs
conditionally use custom vm_ops, which have not moved to be backed by
DMABUFs. If these BARs are mmap()ed, the vdev enables the existing
behaviour of unmap_mapping_range() for the device fd address space.

A VFIO DMABUF can export a subset of a BAR to userspace by fd; add
support for mmap() of this fd. This provides another route for a
process to map BARs, except one where the process can only map a specific
subset of a BAR represented by the exported DMABUF.
mmap() support enables userspace driver designs that safely delegate
access to BAR sub-ranges to other client processes by sharing a DMABUF
fd, without having to share the (omnipotent) VFIO device fd with them.
Since the main VFIO BAR mmap() is now DMABUF-aware, this path reuses
the existing vm_ops. But, since the lifecycle of an exported DMABUF
is still decoupled from that of the device fd it came from, the device
fd might now be closed concurrent with a VMA fault.
Extra synchronisation is added to deal with the possibility of a fault
racing with the DMABUF cleanup path. (Note that this differs to a
DMABUF implicitly created on the mmap() path, which holds ownership of
the device fd and so prevents close-during-fault scenarios in order to
maintain the same user-facing behaviour on close.) It does this by
temporarily taking a VFIO device registration to ensure vdev remains
valid, then vdev->memory_lock can be taken.

Expand the VFIO DMABUF revocation state to three states:
Not revoked, temporarily revoked, and permanently revoked.
The first two are for existing transient revocation, e.g. across a
function reset, and the DMABUF is put into the last in response to a
new ioctl(VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_DMABUF_REVOKE) request.
This VFIO device fd ioctl() passes a DMABUF by fd and requests that
the DMABUF is permanently revoked. On success, it's guaranteed that
the buffer can never be imported/attached/mmap()ed in future, that
dynamic imports have been cleanly detached, and that all mappings have
been made inaccessible/PTEs zapped.
This is useful for lifecycle management, to reclaim VFIO PCI BAR
ranges previously delegated to a subordinate client process: The
driver process can ensure that the loaned resources are revoked when
the client is deemed "done", and exported ranges can be safely re-used
elsewhere.
Refactor the revocation code out of vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() to a
function common to move and the new ioctl path.

A new VFIO feature, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR, is added to
set (and get) CPU-facing memory type attributes for a DMABUF exported
from vfio-pci. These are used for subsequent mmap()s of the buffer.
There are two attributes supported:
- The default, VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR_UC
- VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR_WC, which results in WC
PTEs for the DMABUF's BAR region.

Largely this looks good to me. I have one minor nit below that you can

I'm personally not a fan of adding #ifdefs inside functions like this.
This instance is small and easy to understand, but it can quickly become
a bit of a mess if we start adding more features. I probably would have
created a pci_p2pdma_release_pool() helper which does the inverse of
pci_p2pdma_setup_pool(), it would be called in pci_p2pdma_release() and
an empty implementation would be provided in the case where
CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA is not set.

That's cleaner, I'll do that. Thanks for the review.

This deserves a /* CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA */ reference like the previous
long span, though potentially a better solution would be to split the
core code out to a separate file with shared header. I asked opus to
see what this would look like and it generated the patch below
(unverified, compile tested only). Bigger diff, harder to follow
blame, but the shape of the core is much more apparent. You're welcome
to take or leave it. Thanks,
Alex

This appears to be user trigger'able, by causing a vma to be split, and
also unnecessary as it seems the math works out correctly for the split
case.

Overall Series Review
Subject: vfio/pci: Add mmap() for DMABUFs
Author: Matt Evans <mattev@meta.com>
Patches: 15
Reviewed: 2026-05-28T12:28:51.795261
---
This is a well-structured v2 series from Matt Evans (Meta) that converts VFIO PCI BAR mmap() to be backed by DMABUFs, then adds mmap() support for explicitly-exported DMABUFs, plus ioctl-based permanent revocation and memory attribute control. The goal is to allow userspace drivers to safely delegate BAR sub-ranges to subordinate processes via DMABUF fds.
**Architecture**: The approach of unifying the BAR mmap path and explicit DMABUF mmap path under common fault-handling code is sound and follows prior review feedback. The lifecycle management -- with the BAR mmap DMABUF taking ownership of the device fd -- is a clever way to preserve existing behavior.
**Concerns**:
1. The `#ifdef CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA` / `#ifdef CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF` guards sprinkled through `vfio_pci_dmabuf.c` (patch 4) create a file that compiles in multiple configurations with interleaved `#ifdef` blocks, which is fragile.
2. Patch 7's fault handler synchronization protocol (resv lock -> try_get_registration -> unlock resv -> memory_lock) is complex with 5 numbered steps. While thoroughly commented, this is a subtle ordering that future maintainers need to preserve.
3. The `bar_needs_zap` flag (patch 6) for nvgrace-gpu is a reasonable interim hack but deserves an actual timeline for removal.
4. Patch 9's use of `-ENOTSUPP` (kernel-internal) instead of `-EOPNOTSUPP` (POSIX) in a UAPI-facing path is a bug.
Overall the series is in good shape for a v2. The code is well-commented, the cover letter is thorough, and the incremental approach is easy to follow.

Patch Review
Splits `CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA` into a core part (provider lookup) and the full feature (requires `ZONE_DEVICE`). This unblocks vfio-pci on 32-bit platforms.
**Observation**: The patch removes the `depends on 64BIT` from `PCI_P2PDMA` but the comment it also removes says:
```
- #
- # The need for the scatterlist DMA bus address flag means PCI P2PDMA
- # requires 64bit
- #
- depends on 64BIT
```
This comment was explaining why `64BIT` was needed. Since `ZONE_DEVICE` itself already implies `64BIT` on most architectures (via `MEMORY_HOTPLUG`), the removal is likely fine in practice, but it would be worth confirming that `ZONE_DEVICE` is truly never selectable on 32-bit. If it were, the scatterlist DMA bus address flag concern would resurface.
**Minor**: `default n` is unnecessary for a bool Kconfig symbol -- `n` is already the default:
```
+config PCI_P2PDMA_CORE
+ default n
+ bool
```
The `#ifdef CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA` guards in `p2pdma.c` look correct -- the file is now compiled under `_CORE`, and the full P2P functionality is conditionally compiled within it.

* Claude review: vfio/pci: Add a helper to look up PFNs for DMABUFs

Patch Review
Adds `vfio_pci_dma_buf_find_pfn()` for translating fault addresses to PFNs via the DMABUF's `phys_vec[]` ranges.
**The comment block is quite long (lines 438-470)**. A 30+ line comment preceding the function duplicates what the code already communicates. Consider trimming to just the non-obvious parts (the `vma_pgoff_adjust` semantics and the hugepage/range-boundary limitation).
**The `vma_pgoff_adjust` field and its WARN**:
```c
+ if (vpdmabuf->vma_pgoff_adjust != 0 &&
+ vpdmabuf->vma_pgoff_adjust != (vma->vm_pgoff &
+ (VFIO_PCI_OFFSET_MASK >> PAGE_SHIFT))) {
+ WARN(1, "Unexpected vma_pgoff_adjust 0x%lx (vm_pgoff 0x%lx)\n",
```
This WARN fires if `vma_pgoff_adjust` is nonzero and doesn't match the VMA's pgoff. The check is a debugging assertion that should arguably be a `WARN_ON_ONCE` rather than `WARN(1, ...)` to avoid spamming dmesg.
**Struct movement**: Moving `struct vfio_pci_dma_buf` to the header and adding `vma_pgoff_adjust` is clean. Good that `vma_pgoff_adjust` is `unsigned long` to match `vm_pgoff`.

Refactors DMABUF export into `vfio_pci_dmabuf_export()` and adds `vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf()`.
**File ownership transfer**: The pattern of swapping `vma->vm_file`:
```c
+ priv->vfile = vma->vm_file;
+ vma->vm_file = priv->dmabuf->file;
```
and adding `fput(priv->vfile)` in release is correct but subtle. The `vfile` field is added to the struct but only used in the BAR mmap path (not the explicit export path). Consider adding a brief comment at the `fput` in `vfio_pci_dma_buf_release`:
```c
+ if (priv->vfile)
+ fput(priv->vfile);
```
to note this is the original VFIO device fd that was replaced in `vm_file`.
**`kzalloc_obj`**: The use of `kzalloc_obj(*priv)` and `kzalloc_obj(*priv->phys_vec)` -- I'm not sure this macro exists in mainline. If this is a Meta-internal helper, it won't compile upstream. This should be `kzalloc(sizeof(*priv), GFP_KERNEL)`.
**`get_file_rcu` / file refcounting**: The `vma->vm_file` swap happens without holding any particular lock beyond the mmap_lock that the kernel holds during `mmap()`. This should be safe since the VMA hasn't been installed yet at this point.

* Claude review: vfio/pci: Convert BAR mmap() to use a DMABUF

Patch Review
The main conversion patch. Removes `vma_to_pfn()`, updates the fault handler, and makes `VFIO_PCI_CORE` depend on `DMA_SHARED_BUFFER` and `PCI_P2PDMA_CORE`.
**Kconfig change**:
```c
+ select PCI_P2PDMA_CORE
+ select DMA_SHARED_BUFFER
```
Making these unconditional `select`s for `VFIO_PCI_CORE` is a significant dependency change. `DMA_SHARED_BUFFER` is generally available, but this should be called out in the commit message more prominently since it affects all VFIO PCI users.
**Conditional `.attach` in dma_buf_ops**:
```c
static const struct dma_buf_ops vfio_pci_dmabuf_ops = {
+#ifdef CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF
.attach = vfio_pci_dma_buf_attach,
+#endif
```
Setting `.attach = NULL` when `CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF` is disabled means DMA-BUF attach will silently succeed (the core code skips the callback if NULL). This is intentional -- BAR mmap DMABUFs don't need P2P attach semantics -- but it's worth noting that this means the DMABUFs created on the mmap path can't be used for DMA by importers when P2P is disabled.
**Default fault return changed**: The old code defaulted to `VM_FAULT_FALLBACK`; the new code defaults to `VM_FAULT_SIGBUS`. This is correct since a revoked buffer should SIGBUS, and the fallback case is now explicit in the `-EAGAIN` return from `find_pfn`.

Patch Review
Nice quality-of-life patch for debugging. Generates names like `vfio1234567890:ffff:ff:3f.7/5`.
**Direct access to `priv->dmabuf->name_lock`**:
```c
+ spin_lock(&priv->dmabuf->name_lock);
+ kfree(priv->dmabuf->name);
+ priv->dmabuf->name = bufname;
+ spin_unlock(&priv->dmabuf->name_lock);
```
This directly reaches into `struct dma_buf` internals rather than using the `DMA_BUF_SET_NAME` path. While functionally fine (and avoids an unnecessary `copy_from_user`), it's fragile if the dma-buf subsystem changes its internal locking. Consider using `dma_buf_set_name()` if one exists, or at minimum add a comment explaining why direct access is used.
**`#include <uapi/linux/dma-buf.h>`**: Kernel code should include `<linux/dma-buf.h>` rather than the UAPI header. The UAPI header is pulled for `DMA_BUF_NAME_LEN`, which should be available through the normal header.

* Claude review: vfio/pci: Clean up BAR zap and revocation

Patch Review
Consolidates `vfio_pci_zap_bars()` + `vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()` into `vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars()`. Clean refactoring.
**`vfio_pci_ioctl_reset` change**: The lock acquisition changes from `vfio_pci_zap_and_down_write_memory_lock` (which did lock+zap atomically) to separate `down_write` + `vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars`:
```c
- vfio_pci_zap_and_down_write_memory_lock(vdev);
+ down_write(&vdev->memory_lock);
...
- vfio_pci_dma_buf_move(vdev, true);
+ vfio_pci_zap_revoke_bars(vdev);
```
This moves the zap/revoke to *after* the D0 power transition, which the changelog notes. This is intentional per the v2 notes but is a behavioral change worth PCI maintainer attention.
**`bar_needs_zap` flag**: Set in nvgrace-gpu but never cleared. This means once any nvgrace-gpu BAR is mmap'd, the zap path will always fire even after that BAR is unmapped. The FIXME acknowledges this, and the overhead is minimal (an extra `unmap_mapping_range` on an empty range), so this is acceptable as an interim solution.

* Claude review: vfio/pci: Support mmap() of a VFIO DMABUF

Patch Review
This is the most complex patch. Adds `fops->mmap` for DMABUF fds and handles the lifecycle where the device fd might close while a DMABUF VMA fault is in-flight.
**The 5-step synchronization protocol** in `vfio_pci_mmap_huge_fault` is the core contribution. The logic is:
1. Lock DMABUF resv -> check revoked/vdev
2. `vfio_device_try_get_registration` (guaranteed >0 here)
3. Unlock resv (cleanup can now proceed)
4. Take `memory_lock`, re-check revocation
5. Service fault or SIGBUS
This is correct but very subtle. The key invariant is that cleanup holds `resv` when setting `revoked`, so if the fault sees `!revoked` under `resv`, the device registration must still be positive.
**`vfio_pci_dma_buf_mmap` hardcodes UC**:
```c
+ vma->vm_page_prot = pgprot_noncached(vma->vm_page_prot);
```
This is overridden in patch 9 to support WC. Fine for the series ordering.
**Missing `.mmap` for non-DMABUF case**: The `vfio_pci_dmabuf_ops` struct conditionally includes `.mmap` only under `CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF`. But the BAR mmap path (which always creates DMABUFs) never goes through `dma_buf_mmap()` -- it installs `vfio_pci_mmap_ops` directly. So this is correct: `.mmap` is only needed for explicitly-exported DMABUFs.

Patch Review
Adds three-state revocation (OK/TEMP_REVOKED/PERM_REVOKED) and a new `VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_DMABUF_REVOKE` ioctl.
**Ioctl number**: Uses `VFIO_BASE + 22` which is confirmed available.
**Security check in `vfio_pci_dma_buf_revoke`**:
```c
+ if (dmabuf->ops != &vfio_pci_dmabuf_ops || priv->vdev != vdev) {
```
Checking `dmabuf->ops` prevents accepting arbitrary dmabufs. Good. The `priv->vdev != vdev` check prevents cross-device revocation. The comment about racing cleanup on a different vdev is well-reasoned.
**The `__vfio_pci_dma_buf_revoke` function**: The early-return logic for state transitions is clear:
```c
+ if ((priv->status == VFIO_PCI_DMABUF_PERM_REVOKED) ||
+ (priv->status == VFIO_PCI_DMABUF_OK && !revoked) ||
+ (priv->status == VFIO_PCI_DMABUF_TEMP_REVOKED && revoked && !permanently)) {
+ return;
+ }
```
The third condition (temp-revoked and requesting non-permanent revoke) correctly avoids redundant work. TEMP->PERM upgrade skips the invalidation path since the buffer is already gone. Sound.
**Missing `flags` field question**: The author asks whether a `flags` field should be added to `struct vfio_pci_dmabuf_revoke`. Given the `argsz` pattern already allows extension, I'd say no -- add it when needed. UAPI extensibility is already handled.

* Claude review: vfio/pci: Add mmap() attributes to DMABUF feature

Patch Review
Adds `VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR` for setting UC/WC memory attributes on exported DMABUFs.
**Bug -- wrong errno**:
```c
+ default:
+ ret = -ENOTSUPP;
```
`-ENOTSUPP` is `524` (kernel-internal, `EOPNOTSUPP` equivalent for in-kernel use only). For a UAPI-facing path that returns to userspace, this should be `-EOPNOTSUPP` (`95`). The docstring even says `ENOTSUPP` but userspace will see the raw `524` value which is non-standard. Fix:
```c
ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;
```
**GET+SET combined semantics**: When both `VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_GET` and `VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_SET` are specified, the code applies SET first, then returns the *old* value via GET:
```c
+ uint32_t old_attr = priv->memattr;
+ if (flags & VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_SET) { ... }
+ db_attr.memattr = old_attr;
+ }
+ if (!ret && (flags & VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_GET)) {
+ if (copy_to_user(arg, &db_attr, sizeof(db_attr)))
```
This "swap" semantic (set new, return old) is unusual and should be documented in the UAPI header. Users would typically expect GET to return the current (post-SET) value. Consider whether this is the intended behavior or a bug.
**`memattr` initialization for BAR mmap DMABUFs**: In `vfio_pci_core_mmap_prep_dmabuf()`, `priv->memattr` is not explicitly set, relying on `kzalloc` zero-initialization to give `VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR_NC = 0`. This is fine but fragile -- if the enum values ever change, this would break. The explicit `VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_DMA_BUF_MEMATTR_NC` enum name is used in patch 9 for the explicit export path, so it would be consistent to also set it explicitly in the mmap path. (Low priority.)
**Naming inconsistency**: The enum uses `_NC` (noncached) but the UAPI docstring says "The default ... is NC." Meanwhile patch 7 uses `pgprot_noncached`. The cover letter and commit message say "UC" (uncached). These are the same thing in practice, but the UAPI should pick one term and stick with it. `UC` is more conventional for MMIO.
