An architecture protecting the guest memory against unauthorized host

use of VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM.

Let's give a chance to the architecture to accept or not devices
without VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM.

Well don't you need to check it *before* VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1, not after?

But it's only available with VERSION_1 anyway, isn't it? So it probably
also needs to fail when this feature is needed if VERSION_1 has not been
negotiated, I think.


would be something like:

- if (!virtio_has_feature(dev, VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1))
- return 0;
+ if (!virtio_has_feature(dev, VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1)) {
+ ret = arch_accept_virtio_features(dev);
+ if (ret)
+ dev_warn(&dev->dev,
+ "virtio: device must provide
VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1\n");
+ return ret;
+ }

That looks wrong; I think we want to validate in all cases. What about:

ret = arch_accept_virtio_features(dev); // this can include checking for
// older or newer features
if (ret)
// assume that the arch callback moaned already
return ret;

if (!virtio_has_feature(dev, VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1))
return 0;

// do the virtio-1 only FEATURES_OK dance

hum, you are right, I was too focused on keeping my simple arch_accept_virtio_features() function unchanged.
It must be more general.




just a thought on the function name:
It becomes more general than just IOMMU_PLATFORM related.

What do you think of:

arch_accept_virtio_features()

Or maybe arch_validate_virtio_features()?

OK validated.

Thanks,
Pierre
