[PULL,3/3] vfio/pci: Static Resizable BAR capability

Commit Message

Alex Williamson May 9, 2023, 9:59 p.m. UTC

The PCI Resizable BAR (ReBAR) capability is currently hidden from the
VM because the protocol for interacting with the capability does not
support a mechanism for the device to reject an advertised supported
BAR size.  However, when assigned to a VM, the act of resizing the
BAR requires adjustment of host resources for the device, which
absolutely can fail.  Linux does not currently allow us to reserve
resources for the device independent of the current usage.

The only writable field within the ReBAR capability is the BAR Size
register.  The PCIe spec indicates that when written, the device
should immediately begin to operate with the provided BAR size.  The
spec however also notes that software must only write values
corresponding to supported sizes as indicated in the capability and
control registers.  Writing unsupported sizes produces undefined
results.  Therefore, if the hypervisor were to virtualize the
capability and control registers such that the current size is the
only indicated available size, then a write of anything other than
the current size falls into the category of undefined behavior,
where we can essentially expose the modified ReBAR capability as
read-only.

This may seem pointless, but users have reported that virtualizing
the capability in this way not only allows guest software to expose
related features as available (even if only cosmetic), but in some
scenarios can resolve guest driver issues.  Additionally, no
regressions in behavior have been reported for this change.

A caveat here is that the PCIe spec requires for compatibility that
devices report support for a size in the range of 1MB to 512GB,
therefore if the current BAR size falls outside that range we revert
to hiding the capability.
