Currently kfd manages kfd_process in a one context (kfd_process)
per program manner, thus each user space program
only onws one kfd context (kfd_process).

This model works fine for most of the programs, but imperfect
for a hypervisor like QEMU. Because all programs in the guest
user space share the same only one kfd context, which is
problematic, including but not limited to:

As illustrated in Figure 1, all guest user space programs share the same fd of 
/dev/kfd
and the same kfd_process, and the same PASID leading to the same
GPU_VM address space. Therefore the IOVA range of each
guest user space programs are not isolated,
they can attack each other through GPU DMA.

                                 Fiture 1


This series implements a multiple contexts solution:
- Allow each program to create and hold multiple contexts (kfd processes)
- Each context has its own fd of /dev/kfd and an exclusive kfd_process,
  which is a secondary kfd context. So that PASID/GPU VM isolates their IOVA 
address spaces.
  Therefore, they can not attack each other through GPU DMA.

The design is illustrated in Figure 2 below:

Zhu Lingshan (13):
  amdkfd: enlarge the hashtable of kfd_process
  amdkfd: mark the first kfd_process as the primary one
  amdkfd: find_process_by_mm always return the primary context
  amdkfd: Introduce kfd_create_process_sysfs as a separate function
  amdkfd: destroy kfd secondary contexts through fd close
