On x86 IRQ remapping is abstracted by the IOMMU. On ARM this is abstracted
by the msi controller. vfio_safe_irq_domain allows to check whether
interrupts are "safe" for a given device. They are if the device does
not use MSI or if the device uses MSI and the msi-parent controller
supports IRQ remapping.

Then we check at group level if all devices have safe interrupts: if not,
we only allow the group to be attached if allow_unsafe_interrupts is set.

At this point ARM sMMU still advertises IOMMU_CAP_INTR_REMAP. This is
changed in next patch.

v3 -> v4:
- rename vfio_msi_parent_irq_remapping_capable into vfio_safe_irq_domain
  and irq_remapping into safe_irq_domains

v2 -> v3:
- protect vfio_msi_parent_irq_remapping_capable with
  CONFIG_GENERIC_MSI_IRQ_DOMAIN

Yes it should support multiple ITS.

Please note however that the series does not yet implement the
msi_doorbell_info callback in GICv3 ITS PCIe/platform irqchip. Without
that, the pci_enable is going to fail. I am going to submit a separate
RFC for that but I can't test it at the moment.

Let me try to rephrase: we check the device is not attached to an MSI
controller (I think this is the semantic of dev_get_msi_domain(dev)).

If it is not, we don't have to care about MSI isolation: there will be
no IOMMU binding between the device and any MSI doorbell. If it is we
check the msi domain is backed by an MSI controller able to perform MSI
isolation.

So effectively "usage of MSIs" is improper - since it is decided after
the group attachment anyway  - and the commit message should rather
state "if the device is linked to an MSI controller" (dt msi-parent
notion I think).

Does it sound better?

Sorry but I still don't get the point. For the device to reach the
doorbell there must be an IOMMU mapping.

- if the device is not attached to an MSI domain, there won't be any
doorbell iommu mapping built by this series, so no risk, right?

The device will be allowed to reach only memory iommu mapped by
userspace with VFIO DMA MAP standard API. Of course if the userspace can
mmap all the host PA that's a more general issue, right?

- If the device is attached to an MSI domain (msi-parent link), 2 cases:
1) the MSI controller advertises MSI isolation (ITS cases), no risk
2) the MSI controller does not advertise MSI isolation (GICv2m), there
is a security hole.
   a) by default we reject the device attachment
   b) if the userspace overrides the safe interrupt option he accepts
the security hole

What am I missing?

Yes but that's the root hypothesis with VFIO assignment, right?

Except if the no-iommu option is explicitly set by the userspace, there
must be an IOMMU downstream to the device that protects all the DMA
transactions.

Assuming we have an IOMMU, either we have translated transactions or
faults? So if legacy PCI devices try to write into a doorbell, there
must be faults because there is no IOMMU mapping for doorbells?

Ah OK, I now better understand the point. So in that case not all the
DMA accesses of the devices are properly protected by the sMMU. Doesn't
it look as a kind of PCIe Access Control Service issue here where
transactions are able to bypass the translation service (downstream to
the root complex)?

I clearly did not address that kind of topology in this series. In such
a case the MSIs may even not be mapped at all which was the primary
purpose of the series.

Do you have any clue about how to detect that situation? If we cannot
rely on any iommu service I don't find any other solution but to
recognize this situation and reject the assignment.
