Subject: [3/3] -reserved-ram for PCI passthrough without iommu and without
paravirt
Hello,
The "reserved RAM" can be mapped by virtualization software with
/dev/mem to create a 1:1 mapping between guest physical (bus) address
and host physical (bus) address. Please let me know if something like
this can be merged in -mm (this is the minimal possible change to
achieve the feature). The part at the end is more a fix, but it's only
required with this applied (unless you want to have a kexec above
~40M).
Here the complete patchset:
http://marc.info/?l=kvm-devel&m=120698256716369&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=kvm-devel&m=120698299317253&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=kvm-devel&m=120698328617835&w=2
Note current mainline is buggy so this patch should also applied with
-R for the host kernel to boot but hopefully the regression will be
solved sooner than later (no reply yet though).

+ This makes the kernel use only RAM above __PHYSICAL_START.
+ All memory below __PHYSICAL_START will be left unused and
+ marked as "reserved RAM" in /proc/iomem. The few special
+ pages that can't be relocated at addresses above
+ __PHYSICAL_START and that can't be guaranteed to be unused
+ by the running kernel will be marked "reserved RAM failed"
+ in /proc/iomem. Those may or may be not used by the kernel
+ (for example SMP trampoline pages would only be used if
+ CPU hotplug is enabled).
+
+ The "reserved RAM" can be mapped by virtualization software
+ with /dev/mem to create a 1:1 mapping between guest physical
+ (bus) address and host physical (bus) address. This will
+ allow PCI passthrough with DMA for the guest using the RAM
+ with the 1:1 mapping. The only detail to take care of is the
+ RAM marked "reserved RAM failed". The virtualization
+ software must create for the guest an e820 map that only
+ includes the "reserved RAM" regions but if the guest touches
+ memory with guest physical address in the "reserved RAM
+ failed" ranges (Linux guest will do that even if the RAM
+ isn't present in the e820 map), it should provide that as
+ RAM and map it with a non-linear mapping. This should allow
+ any Linux kernel to run fine and hopefully any other OS too.
