vfio: do not merge contiguous areas
In order to save DMA entries limited by kernel both for external memory and hugepage memory, an attempt was made to map physically contiguous memory in one go. This cannot be done as VFIO IOMMU type1 does not support partially unmapping a previously mapped memory region while Heap can request for multi page mapping and partial unmapping. Hence for going back to old method of mapping/unmapping at memseg granularity, this commit reverts commitd1c7c0cdf7
("vfio: map contiguous areas in one go") Also add documentation on what module parameter needs to be used to increase the per-container dma map limit for VFIO. Fixes:d1c7c0cdf7

VFIO kernel is usually present by default in all distributions,

however please consult your distributions documentation to make sure that is the case.
|

|

For DMA mapping of either external memory or hugepages, VFIO interface is used.
|
||||
VFIO does not support partial unmap of once mapped memory. Hence DPDK's memory is
|
||||
mapped in hugepage granularity or system page granularity. Number of DMA
|
||||
mappings is limited by kernel with user locked memory limit of a process (rlimit)
|
||||
for system/hugepage memory. Another per-container overall limit applicable both
|
||||
for external memory and system memory was added in kernel 5.1 defined by
|
||||
VFIO module parameter ``dma_entry_limit`` with a default value of 64K.
|
||||
When application is out of DMA entries, these limits need to be adjusted to
|
||||
increase the allowed limit.

Since Linux version 5.7,

the ``vfio-pci`` module supports the creation of virtual functions.
