Sticking these next to each other seems to guarantee cache conflicts.
Avail/Fetch seems to mimic Virtio's avail/used exactly. I am not saying
you must reuse the code really, but I think you should take a hard look
at e.g. the virtio packed ring structure. We spent a bunch of time
optimizing it for cache utilization. It seems kernel is the driver,
making entries available, and userspace the device, using them.
Again let's not develop a thread about this, but I think
this is something to consider and discuss in future versions
of the patches.

offset of what? a 4K page right? Seems like a waste e.g. for
hugetlbfs... How about replacing pad with size instead?

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. kvm_dirty_gfn
seems to be part of UAPI.

All these seem like arbitrary limitations to me.
Sizing the ring correctly might prove to be a challenge.
Thus I think there's value in resizing the rings
without destroying VCPU.
Also, power of two just saves a branch here and there,
but wastes lots of memory. Just wrap the index around to
0 and then users can select any size?

OTOH larger buffers put lots of pressure on the system cache.

This last item means that the performance impact of the feature is
really hard to predict. Can improve some workloads drastically. Or can
slow some down.
One solution could be to actually allow using this together with the
existing bitmap. Userspace can then decide whether it wants to block
VCPU on ring full, or just record ring full condition and recover by
bitmap scanning.

One way versioning, with no bits and negotiation
will make it hard to change down the road.
what's wrong with existing KVM capabilities that
you feel there's a need for dedicated versioning for this?

So 1/2 a megabyte of kernel memory per VM that userspace locks up.
Do we really have to though? Why not get a userspace pointer,
write it with copy to user, and sidestep all this?

What it doesn't is prevent speculative attacks. That's why things like
copy from user have a speculation barrier. Instead of worrying about
that, unless it's really critical, I think you'd do well do just use

what's the story around locking here? Why is it safe

So 4K with just 8 bytes used. Not as bad as 1/2Mbyte for the ring but
still. What is wrong with just a pointer and calling put_user?

KVM_DIRTY_RING_MAX_ENTRIES is not part of UAPI.
So how does userspace know what's legal?
Do you expect it to just try?
More likely it will just copy the number from kernel and can
never ever make it smaller.
