From: Chao Peng <chao.p.peng@linux.intel.com>

Add KVM gmem support to RAMBlock so both normal hva based memory
and kvm gmem fd based private memory can be associated in one RAMBlock.

Introduce new flag RAM_KVM_GMEM. It calls KVM ioctl to create private
gmem for the RAMBlock when it's set.

But who sets RAM_KVM_GMEM and when? Don't we simply allocate it for all 
RAMBlocks under such special VMs? What's the downside of doing that?

The answer is in the next patch. When `private` property of memory 
backend is set to true, it will pass RAM_KVM_GMEM flag to 
memory_region_init_ram_*()

> RAMBlocks under such special VMs? 

yes, this is the direction after your comments.

I'll try to figure out how to achieve it.

> What's the downside of doing that?

As far as I see, for TDX, no downside.

Okay, assuming that patch (and property) will go away, I assume this 
flag can also go away, right?

You're adding a file descriptor to RAMBlock, but I don't see
anything in this patch that ever calls close(gmem_fd) when the
RAMBlock is released. Presuambly reclaim_ramblock() needs to
deal with this ?


With regards,
Daniel

If dropping the flag RAM_KVM_GMEM, it seems we need go back to the 
approach of rfc v1[1][2], that allocating gmem inside .region_add() 
callback. Is it accepted by you?

Another option is allocating gmem inside ram_block_add() by checking the 
vm_type (it looks hacky for me). What's your opinion on this option?

One more option is, we keep the RAM_KVM_GMEM as this patch, and change 
"private" property of memory backend into "need_kvm_gmem" field (make it 
not user settable) and "need_kvm_gmem" field will be set to true in 
tdx_kvm_init() specific cgs initialization function.
