Description:
|
|
Process Address Space ID (PASID) assigned by IOMMU driver to
|
|
the device for use with Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA).
|
|
|
|
This read-only attribute exposes the PASID (A 20-bit identifier
|
|
used in PCIe Address Translation Services and iommu table walks)
|
|
allocated by the IOMMU driver during sva device binding.
|
|
|
|
User-space UIO applications must read this attribute to obtain
|
|
the PASID and program it into the device's configuration registers.
|
|
This enables the device to perform DMA using user-space virtual
|
|
address, with address translation handled by IOMMU.
|
|
|
|
UIO User-space applications must:
|
|
- Opening device and Mapping the device's register space via /dev/uioX
|
|
(This triggers the IOMMU driver to allocate the PASID)
|
|
- Reading the PASID from sysfs
|
|
- Writing the PASID to a device-specific register (with example offset)
|
|
The code may be like:
|
|
|
|
map = mmap(..., "/dev/uio0", ...);
|
|
|
|
f = fopen("/sys/.../pasid", "r");
|
|
fscanf(f, "%d", &pasid);
|
|
|
|
map[REG_PASID_OFFSET] = pasid;
