    KVM: PPC: Avoid marking DMA-mapped pages dirty in real mode · 425333bf
    Alexey Kardashevskiy authored
    At the moment the real mode handler of H_PUT_TCE calls iommu_tce_xchg_rm()
    which in turn reads the old TCE and if it was a valid entry, marks
    the physical page dirty if it was mapped for writing. Since it is in
    real mode, realmode_pfn_to_page() is used instead of pfn_to_page()
    to get the page struct. However SetPageDirty() itself reads the compound
    page head and returns a virtual address for the head page struct and
    setting dirty bit for that kills the system.
    
    This adds additional dirty bit tracking into the MM/IOMMU API for use
    in the real mode. Note that this does not change how VFIO and
    KVM (in virtual mode) set this bit. The KVM (real mode) changes include:
    - use the lowest bit of the cached host phys address to carry
    the dirty bit;
    - mark pages dirty when they are unpinned which happens when
    the preregistered memory is released which always happens in virtual
    mode;
    - add mm_iommu_ua_mark_dirty_rm() helper to set delayed dirty bit;
    - change iommu_tce_xchg_rm() to take the kvm struct for the mm to use
    in the new mm_iommu_ua_mark_dirty_rm() helper;
    - move iommu_tce_xchg_rm() to book3s_64_vio_hv.c (which is the only
    caller anyway) to reduce the real mode KVM and IOMMU knowledge
    across different subsystems.
    
    This removes realmode_pfn_to_page() as it is not used anymore.
    
    While we at it, remove some EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() as that code is for
    the real mode only and modules cannot call it anyway.
