Virtio interface This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O mechanisms. It will no-doubt need further enhancement. The virtio drivers add buffers to virtio queues; as the buffers are consumed the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked. There is also a generic implementation of config space which drivers can query to get setup information from the host.

virtio: add help to CONFIG_VIRTIO option. Trying to enable a virtio driver (eg CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK) is painful because it depends on CONFIG_VIRTIO. CONFIG_VIRTIO doesn't tell you how to turn it on (it's selected from anything which provides a virtio bus). This patch at least adds some documentation, visible in menuconfig, as a hint.

---help---
This option is selected by any driver which implements the virtio
bus, such as CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI, CONFIG_VIRTIO_MMIO, CONFIG_LGUEST,
CONFIG_RPMSG or CONFIG_S390_GUEST.
Virtio helper routines for a descriptor ringbuffer implementation These helper routines supply most of the virtqueue_ops for hypervisors which want to use a ring for virtio. Unlike the previous lguest implementation: 1) The rings are variable sized (2^n-1 elements). 2) They have an unfortunate limit of 65535 bytes per sg element. 3) The page numbers are always 64 bit (PAE anyone?) 4) They no longer place used[] on a separate page, just a separate cacheline. 5) We do a modulo on a variable. We could be tricky if we cared. 6) Interrupts and notifies are suppressed using flags within the rings. Users need only get the ring pages and provide a notify hook (KVM wants the guest to allocate the rings, lguest does it sanely).

virtio: expose for non-virtualization users too virtio has been so far used only in the context of virtualization, and the virtio Kconfig was sourced directly by the relevant arch Kconfigs when VIRTUALIZATION was selected. Now that we start using virtio for inter-processor communications, we need to source the virtio Kconfig outside of the virtualization scope too. Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections. The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu. This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible (and neat!) for virtualization users now. Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.

---help---
Virtio PCI Card 0.9.X Draft (circa 2014) and older device support.
This option enables building a transitional driver, supporting
both devices conforming to Virtio 1 specification, and legacy devices.
If disabled, you get a slightly smaller, non-transitional driver,
with no legacy compatibility.
So look out into your driveway. Do you have a flying car? If
so, you can happily disable this option and virtio will not
break. Otherwise, leave it set. Unless you're testing what
life will be like in The Future.
If unsure, say Y.
virtio: balloon driver After discussions with Anthony Liguori, it seems that the virtio balloon can be made even simpler. Here's my attempt. The device configuration tells the driver how much memory it should take from the guest (ie. balloon size). The guest feeds the page numbers it has taken via one virtqueue. A second virtqueue feeds the page numbers the driver wants back: if the device has the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST bit, then this queue is compulsory, otherwise it's advisory (and the guest can simply fault the pages back in). This driver can be enhanced later to deflate the balloon via a shrinker, oom callback or we could even go for a complete set of in-guest regulators.

Also this patch adds three counters into /proc/vmstat: "balloon_inflate", "balloon_deflate" and "balloon_migrate". They accumulate balloon activity. Current size of balloon is (balloon_inflate - balloon_deflate) pages. All generic balloon code now gathered under option CONFIG_MEMORY_BALLOON. It should be selected by ballooning driver which wants use this feature. Currently virtio-balloon is the only user.

virtio: Add platform bus driver for memory mapped virtio device This patch, based on virtio PCI driver, adds support for memory mapped (platform) virtio device. This should allow environments like qemu to use virtio-based block & network devices even on platforms without PCI support. One can define and register a platform device which resources will describe memory mapped control registers and "mailbox" interrupt. Such device can be also instantiated using the Device Tree node with compatible property equal "virtio,mmio".
