v2:
- Added Reviewed-by Janne Grunau
- Sync with 6.7.0-rc3
- Separated form the series patches:
vhost-vdpa: account iommu allocations
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231130200447.2319543-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com
vfio: account iommu allocations
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231130200900.2320829-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com
as suggested by Jason Gunthorpe
- Fixed SPARC build issue detected by kernel test robot
- Drop the following patches as they do account iommu page tables:
iommu/dma: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h
iommu/fsl: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h
iommu/iommufd: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h
as suggested by Robin Murphy. These patches are not related to IOMMU
page tables. We might need to do a separate work to support DMA
observability.
- Remove support iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s as the 2nd level pages are
under a page size, thanks Robin Murphy for pointing this out.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Description
----------------------------------------------------------------------
IOMMU subsystem may contain state that is in gigabytes. Majority of that
state is iommu page tables. Yet, there is currently, no way to observe
how much memory is actually used by the iommu subsystem.

This patch series solves this problem by adding both observability to
all pages that are allocated by IOMMU, and also accountability, so
admins can limit the amount if via cgroups.

The system-wide observability is using /proc/meminfo:
SecPageTables:    438176 kB

Contains IOMMU and KVM memory.

Per-node observability:
/sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/meminfo
Node N SecPageTables:    422204 kB

Contains IOMMU and KVM memory in the given NUMA node.

Per-node IOMMU only observability:
/sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/vmstat
nr_iommu_pages 105555

Contains number of pages IOMMU allocated in the given node.

Accountability: using sec_pagetables cgroup-v2 memory.stat entry.

With the change, iova_stress[1] stops as limit is reached:

$ ./iova_stress
iova space:     0T      free memory:   497G
iova space:     1T      free memory:   495G
iova space:     2T      free memory:   493G
iova space:     3T      free memory:   491G

stops as limit is reached.

This series encorporates suggestions that came from the discussion
at LPC [2].

Joerg, is this series anticipated to be queued up in the core branch of 
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu.git so it gets into 
linux-next?

This observability seems particularly useful so that we can monitor and 
alert on any unexpected increases (unbounded memory growth from this 
subsystem has in the past caused us issues before the memory is otherwise 
not observable by host software).

Or are we still waiting on code reviews from some folks that we should 
ping?

Thanks!

A few more reviews would certainly help, but I will also do a review on
my own. If things are looking good I can merge it into the iommu tree
when 6.9-rc3 is released (which is the usual time I start merging new
stuff).

This means that nested page tables that are managed by KVM, and device
page tables that are managed by IOMMU are all accounted in
SecPageTables (secondary page tables). The decision to account them
both in one field of meminfo was made at LPC'23.

Some problems with this:

  1. I get DKIM failures when downloading this patch-set with b4, can
     you please send them via a mailserver with working DKIM?

  2. They don't apply to v6.9-rc3. Please rebase to that version and
     are-send.

Thanks,

	Joerg

I was in the process of migrating from google domains to a different
registrar, but I think now the issue is resolved. I will verify it.

I will.
