4b86713236 vhost: split structs into a separate header file
vhost structs are shared by vhost-kernel and vhost-user.  Split them
into a separate file to ease copying them into programs that implement
either the server or the client side of vhost-user.

c48300c92a vhost: fix VHOST_GET_BACKEND_FEATURES ioctl request definition
The _IOC_READ flag fits this ioctl request more because this request
actually only writes to, but doesn't read from userspace.
See NOTEs in include/uapi/asm-generic/ioctl.h for more information.

429711aec2 vhost: switch to use new message format
We use to have message like:

struct vhost_msg {
	int type;
	union {
		struct vhost_iotlb_msg iotlb;
		__u8 padding[64];
	};
};

Unfortunately, there will be a hole of 32bit in 64bit machine because
of the alignment. This leads a different formats between 32bit API and
64bit API. What's more it will break 32bit program running on 64bit
machine.

So fixing this by introducing a new message type with an explicit
32bit reserved field after type like:

struct vhost_msg_v2 {
	__u32 type;
	__u32 reserved;
	union {
		struct vhost_iotlb_msg iotlb;
		__u8 padding[64];
	};
};

We will have a consistent ABI after switching to use this. To enable
this capability, introduce a new ioctl (VHOST_SET_BAKCEND_FEATURE) for
userspace to enable this feature (VHOST_BACKEND_F_IOTLB_V2).

6f52b16c5b License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

6b1e6cc785 vhost: new device IOTLB API
This patch tries to implement an device IOTLB for vhost. This could be
used with userspace(qemu) implementation of DMA remapping
to emulate an IOMMU for the guest.

The idea is simple, cache the translation in a software device IOTLB
(which is implemented as an interval tree) in vhost and use vhost_net
file descriptor for reporting IOTLB miss and IOTLB
update/invalidation. When vhost meets an IOTLB miss, the fault
address, size and access can be read from the file. After userspace
finishes the translation, it writes the translated address to the
vhost_net file to update the device IOTLB.

When device IOTLB is enabled by setting VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM all vq
addresses set by ioctl are treated as iova instead of virtual address and
the accessing can only be done through IOTLB instead of direct userspace
memory access. Before each round or vq processing, all vq metadata is
prefetched in device IOTLB to make sure no translation fault happens
during vq processing.

In most cases, virtqueues are contiguous even in virtual address space.
The IOTLB translation for virtqueue itself may make it a little
slower. We might add fast path cache on top of this patch.

2751c9882b vhost: cross-endian support for legacy devices
This patch brings cross-endian support to vhost when used to implement
legacy virtio devices. Since it is a relatively rare situation, the
feature availability is controlled by a kernel config option (not set
by default).

The vq->is_le boolean field is added to cache the endianness to be
used for ring accesses. It defaults to native endian, as expected
by legacy virtio devices. When the ring gets active, we force little
endian if the device is modern. When the ring is deactivated, we
revert to the native endian default.

If cross-endian was compiled in, a vq->user_be boolean field is added
so that userspace may request a specific endianness. This field is
used to override the default when activating the ring of a legacy
device. It has no effect on modern devices.
