RTE VFIO. This library provides various VFIO related utility functions.

Definition in file rte_vfio.h.

Setup vfio_cfg for the device identified by its address. It discovers the configured I/O MMU groups or sets a new one for the device. If a new groups is assigned, the DMA mapping is performed.

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

sysfs_base sysfs path prefix.
dev_addr device location.
vfio_dev_fd VFIO fd.
device_info Device information.

Returns

0 on success. <0 on failure. >1 if the device cannot be managed this way.

Release a device mapped to a VFIO-managed I/O MMU group.

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

sysfs_base sysfs path prefix.
dev_addr device location.
fd VFIO fd.

Returns

0 on success. <0 on failure.

Enable a VFIO-related kmod.

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

modname kernel module name.

Returns

0 on success. <0 on failure.

Check whether a VFIO-related kmod is enabled.

This function is only relevant to Linux.

Parameters

modname kernel module name.

Returns

1 if true. 0 otherwise.

Whether VFIO NOIOMMU mode is enabled.

This function is only relevant to Linux.

Returns

1 if true. 0 if false. <0 for errors.

Remove group fd from internal VFIO group fd array/

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

vfio_group_fd VFIO Group FD.

Returns

0 on success. <0 on failure.

Parse IOMMU group number for a device

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

sysfs_base sysfs path prefix.
dev_addr device location.
iommu_group_num iommu group number

Returns

>0 on success 0 for non-existent group or VFIO <0 for errors

Get device information

This function is only relevant to Linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

sysfs_base sysfs path prefix.
dev_addr device location.
vfio_dev_fd VFIO fd.
device_info Device information.

Returns

0 on success. <0 on failure.

Open a new VFIO container fd

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Returns

0 container fd < 0 for errors

Open VFIO group fd or get an existing one

This function is only relevant to linux and will return an error on BSD.

Parameters

iommu_group_num iommu group number

Returns

0 group fd < 0 for errors

Create a new container for device binding.

Note

Any newly allocated DPDK memory will not be mapped into these containers by default, user needs to manage DMA mappings for any container created by this API.

When creating containers using this API, the container will only be available in the process that has created it. Sharing containers and devices between multiple processes is not supported.

Returns

the container fd if successful <0 if failed

Destroy the container, unbind all vfio groups within it.

Parameters

container_fd the container fd to destroy

Returns

0 if successful <0 if failed

Bind a IOMMU group to a container.

Parameters

container_fd the container's fd
iommu_group_num the iommu group number to bind to container

Returns

group fd if successful <0 if failed

Unbind a IOMMU group from a container.

Parameters

container_fd the container fd of container
iommu_group_num the iommu group number to delete from container

Returns

0 if successful <0 if failed

Perform DMA mapping for devices in a container.

Parameters

container_fd the specified container fd. Use RTE_VFIO_DEFAULT_CONTAINER_FD to use the default container.
vaddr Starting virtual address of memory to be mapped.
iova Starting IOVA address of memory to be mapped.
len Length of memory segment being mapped.

Returns

0 if successful <0 if failed

Perform DMA unmapping for devices in a container.

Parameters

container_fd the specified container fd. Use RTE_VFIO_DEFAULT_CONTAINER_FD to use the default container.
vaddr Starting virtual address of memory to be unmapped.
iova Starting IOVA address of memory to be unmapped.
len Length of memory segment being unmapped.

Returns

0 if successful <0 if failed
