The software uses a memory-mapped I/O command interface (MC portals) to
communicate with the MC hardware. This command interface is used to
discover, enumerate, configure and remove DPAA2 objects. The DPAA2
objects use MSIs, so the command interface needs to be emulated
such that the correct MSI is configured in the hardware (the guest
has the virtual MSIs).
This patch is adding read/write support for fsl-mc devices. The mc
commands are emulated by the userspace. The host is just passing
the correct command to the hardware.
Also the current patch limits userspace to write complete
64byte command once and read 64byte response by one ioctl.

This patch allows to set an eventfd for fsl-mc device interrupts
and also to trigger the interrupt eventfd from userspace for testing.
All fsl-mc device interrupts are MSIs. The MSIs are allocated from
the MSI domain only once per DPRC and used by all the DPAA2 objects.
The interrupts are managed by the DPRC in a pool of interrupts. Each
device requests interrupts from this pool. The pool is allocated
when the first virtual device is setting the interrupts.
The pool of interrupts is protected by a lock.
The DPRC has an interrupt of its own which indicates if the DPRC
contents have changed. However, currently, the contents of a DPRC
assigned to the guest cannot be changed at runtime, so this interrupt
is not configured.

This patch adds the skeleton for interrupt support
for fsl-mc devices. The interrupts are not yet functional,
the functionality will be added by subsequent patches.

Only the DPRC object allocates interrupts from the MSI
interrupt domain. The interrupts are managed by the DPRC in
a pool of interrupts. The access to this pool of interrupts
has to be protected with a lock.
This patch extends the current lock implementation to have a
lock per DPRC.

The DPRC (Data Path Resource Container) device is a bus device and has
child devices attached to it. When the vfio-fsl-mc driver is probed
the DPRC is scanned and the child devices discovered and initialized.

DPAA2 (Data Path Acceleration Architecture) consists in
mechanisms for processing Ethernet packets, queue management,
accelerators, etc.
The Management Complex (mc) is a hardware entity that manages the DPAA2
hardware resources. It provides an object-based abstraction for software
drivers to use the DPAA2 hardware. The MC mediates operations such as
create, discover, destroy of DPAA2 objects.
The MC provides memory-mapped I/O command interfaces (MC portals) which
DPAA2 software drivers use to operate on DPAA2 objects.
A DPRC is a container object that holds other types of DPAA2 objects.
Each object in the DPRC is a Linux device and bound to a driver.
The MC-bus driver is a platform driver (different from PCI or platform
bus). The DPRC driver does runtime management of a bus instance. It
performs the initial scan of the DPRC and handles changes in the DPRC
configuration (adding/removing objects).
All objects inside a container share the same hardware isolation
context, meaning that only an entire DPRC can be assigned to
a virtual machine.
When a container is assigned to a virtual machine, all the objects
within that container are assigned to that virtual machine.
The DPRC container assigned to the virtual machine is not allowed
to change contents (add/remove objects) by the guest. The restriction
is set by the host and enforced by the mc hardware.
The DPAA2 objects can be directly assigned to the guest. However
the MC portals (the memory mapped command interface to the MC) need
to be emulated because there are commands that configure the
interrupts and the isolation IDs which are virtual in the guest.
Example:
echo vfio-fsl-mc > /sys/bus/fsl-mc/devices/dprc.2/driver_override
echo dprc.2 > /sys/bus/fsl-mc/drivers/vfio-fsl-mc/bind
The dprc.2 is bound to the VFIO driver and all the objects within
dprc.2 are going to be bound to the VFIO driver.
This patch adds the infrastructure for VFIO support for fsl-mc
devices. Subsequent patches will add support for binding and secure
assigning these devices using VFIO.
