This small series enables virtio-net device type in VDUSE.
With it, basic operation have been tested, both with
virtio-vdpa and vhost-vdpa using DPDK Vhost library series
adding VDUSE support using split rings layout (merged in
DPDK v23.07-rc1).
Control queue support (and so multiqueue) has also been
tested, but requires a Kernel series from Jason Wang
relaxing control queue polling [1] to function reliably,
so while Jason rework is done, a patch is added to disable
CVQ and features that depend on it (tested also with DPDK
v23.07-rc1).
In this v5, LSM hooks introduced in previous revision are
unified into a single hook that covers below operations:
- VDUSE_CREATE_DEV ioctl on VDUSE control file,
- VDUSE_DESTROY_DEV ioctl on VDUSE control file,
- open() on VDUSE device file.
In combination with the operations permission, a device type
permission has to be associated:
- block: Virtio block device type,
- net: Virtio networking device type.
Changes in v5:
==============
- Move control queue disablement patch before Net
devices enablement (Jason).
- Unify operations LSM hooks into a single hook.
- Rebase on latest master.
Maxime Coquelin (4):
vduse: validate block features only with block devices
vduse: Temporarily disable control queue features
vduse: enable Virtio-net device type
vduse: Add LSM hook to check Virtio device type
