> Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] IOMMUFD: Deliver IO page faults to user space
>
> Hi folks,
>
> This series implements the functionality of delivering IO page faults to
> user space through the IOMMUFD framework for nested translation. Nested
> translation is a hardware feature that supports two-stage translation
> tables for IOMMU. The second-stage translation table is managed by the
> host VMM, while the first-stage translation table is owned by user
> space. This allows user space to control the IOMMU mappings for its
> devices.
>
> When an IO page fault occurs on the first-stage translation table, the
> IOMMU hardware can deliver the page fault to user space through the
> IOMMUFD framework. User space can then handle the page fault and
> respond
> to the device top-down through the IOMMUFD. This allows user space to
> implement its own IO page fault handling policies.
>
> User space indicates its capability of handling IO page faults by
> setting the IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC_IOPF_CAPABLE flag when allocating a
> hardware page table (HWPT). IOMMUFD will then set up its infrastructure
> for page fault delivery. On a successful return of HWPT allocation, the
> user can retrieve and respond to page faults by reading and writing to
> the file descriptor (FD) returned in out_fault_fd.
>
> The iommu selftest framework has been updated to test the IO page fault
> delivery and response functionality.
>
> This series is based on the latest implementation of nested translation
> under discussion [1] and the page fault handling framework refactoring in
> the IOMMU core [2].

Hi Baolu,
Do you have a corresponding Qemu git to share? I could give it a spin on our
ARM
platform. Please let me know.
Thanks,
