I have a better picture now, thanks both. It really looks like an vIOMMU already to me, perhaps with a special refID mapping playing similar roles as IOVAs in the rest IOMMU worlds. I can't yet tell what's the best way for Xen - as of now QEMU's memory API does provide such translations via IOMMUMemoryRegionClass.translate(), but only from

You're right, that won't work, the memory needs to be mapped before it can be used. At minimum there should be some graceful failure, right now this will crash.

Some more information on the high level design using this type or MR would be great. https://github.com/xen-project/xen/blob/master/docs/misc/grant-tables.txt Xen VM's that use QEMU's VirtIO have a QEMU instance running in a separate VM. There's basically two mechanisms for QEMU's Virtio backends to access the guest's RAM. 1. Foreign mappings. This gives the VM running QEMU access to the entire RAM of the guest VM. Additionally it requires qemu to run in dom0, while in general Xen allows to run backends in less privileged "driver domains", which are usually not allowed to perform foreign mappings. 2. Grant mappings. This allows the guest to dynamically grant and remove access to pages as needed. So the VM running QEMU, cannot map guest RAM unless it's been instructed to do so by the guest. #2 is desirable because if QEMU gets compromised it has a smaller attack surface onto the guest. And it allows to run the virtio backend in a less privileged VM. - why a 3rd memory type is required? Do we have other alternatives? Yes, there are alternatives. 1. It was suggested by Stefano to try to handle this in existing qemu/hw/xen/*. This would be less intrusive but perhaps also less explicit. Concerns about touching the Memory API have been raised before, so perhaps we should try this. I'm a little unsure how we would deal with unmapping when the guest removes our grants and we're using models that don't map but use address_space_read/write(). Those would either need to use grant-copy hypercalls, or they'd need to map, read/write, unmap. 2. Another approach could be to change the Xen grant-iommu in the Linux kernel to work with a grant vIOMMU in QEMU. Linux could explicitly ask QEMU's grant vIOMMU to map/unmap granted regions. This would have the benefit that we wouldn't need to allocate address-bit 63 for grants. A drawback is that it may be slower since we're going to need to bounce between guest/qemu a bit more. It would be a _lot_ slower, unless virtio-iommu and grants are both modified to match. I have looked into that, but the needed effort is rather large. At the last Xen summit I have suggested to introduce a new grant format which would work more like a normal page table structure. Using the same format for virtio-iommu would allow to avoid the additional bounces between qemu and the guest (and in fact that was one of the motivations to suggest the new grant format). Juergen
