[v2,12/14] vfio: Add cdev for vfio_device
Commit Message
This allows user to directly open a vfio device w/o using the legacy
container/group interface, as a prerequisite for supporting new iommu
features like nested translation.
The device fd opened in this manner doesn't have the capability to access
the device as the fops open() doesn't open the device until the successful
BIND_IOMMUFD which be added in next patch.
With this patch, devices registered to vfio core have both group and device
interface created.
- group interface : /dev/vfio/$groupID
- device interface: /dev/vfio/devices/vfioX (X is the minor number and
is unique across devices)
Given a vfio device the user can identify the matching vfioX by checking
the sysfs path of the device. Take PCI device (0000:6a:01.0) for example,
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:6a\:01.0/vfio-dev/vfio0/dev contains the
major:minor of the matching vfioX.
Userspace then opens the /dev/vfio/devices/vfioX and checks with fstat
that the major:minor matches.
The vfio_device cdev logic in this patch:
*) __vfio_register_dev() path ends up doing cdev_device_add() for each
vfio_device;
*) vfio_unregister_group_dev() path does cdev_device_del();

the structure is meaningless.

this comment is more related to the whole function instead of the
following allocation code. Move it to be the function comment.

only if CDEV is configured.

Feel free to drop my SoB. The code I added/moved at the time was very very tiny
in the middle of rebasing various series ... solely to unblock folks that were
also testing when IOMMUFD going out of RFC. But they don't justify a second
author SoB (thanks regardless!)
