VDUSE (vDPA Device in Userspace) is a framework to support
implementing software-emulated vDPA devices in userspace. This
document is intended to clarify the VDUSE design and usage.

<id>urn:sha1:c8a6153b6c59d95c0e091f053f6f180952ade91e</id>
<content type='text'>
This VDUSE driver enables implementing software-emulated vDPA
devices in userspace. The vDPA device is created by
ioctl(VDUSE_CREATE_DEV) on /dev/vduse/control. Then a char device
interface (/dev/vduse/$NAME) is exported to userspace for device
emulation.

In order to make the device emulation more secure, the device's
control path is handled in kernel. A message mechnism is introduced
to forward some dataplane related control messages to userspace.

And in the data path, the DMA buffer will be mapped into userspace
address space through different ways depending on the vDPA bus to
which the vDPA device is attached. In virtio-vdpa case, the MMU-based
software IOTLB is used to achieve that. And in vhost-vdpa case, the
DMA buffer is reside in a userspace memory region which can be shared
to the VDUSE userspace processs via transferring the shmfd.

For more details on VDUSE design and usage, please see the follow-on
Documentation commit.

NB(mst): when merging this with
b542e383d8c0 ("eventfd: Make signal recursion protection a task bit")
replace eventfd_signal_count with eventfd_signal_allowed,
and drop the previous
("eventfd: Export eventfd_wake_count to modules").

Pull x86 cache flush updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A reworked version of the opt-in L1D flush mechanism.

  This is a stop gap for potential future speculation related hardware
  vulnerabilities and a mechanism for truly security paranoid
  applications.

  It allows a task to request that the L1D cache is flushed when the
  kernel switches to a different mm. This can be requested via prctl().

  Changes vs the previous versions:

   - Get rid of the software flush fallback

   - Make the handling consistent with other mitigations

   - Kill the task when it ends up on a SMT enabled core which defeats
     the purpose of L1D flushing obviously"

Lightnvm supports the OCSSD 1.x and 2.0 specs which were early attempts
to produce Open Channel SSDs and never made it into the NVMe spec
proper.  They have since been superceeded by NVMe enhancements such
as ZNS support.  Remove the support per the deprecation schedule.
