Currently, as IOMMU and ATS are not supported, if a user mistakenly set
any of them and tries to mount the vhost-user filesystem inside the
guest, whenever the user tries to access the mount point, the system
will hang forever.

Why is this check needed in addition to VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM?


I don't know if VIRTIO_PCI_FLAG_ATS should depend on VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM. At least from a code perspective today, they are completely independent. A user can specify one or the other or both. And if a user specifies VIRTIO_PCI_FLAG_ATS without specifying VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM, the same issue described in the original message will happen inside the guest.



What needs to be added to support ATS?


Unfortunately I don't know the answer for this question. Hopefully someone else can help with this one.

I thought IOMMU support depends on the vhost-user device backend (e.g.
virtiofsd), so the vhost-user backend should participate in advertising
this feature.

Perhaps the check should be:

     ret = vhost_dev_init(&fs->vhost_dev, &fs->vhost_user,
                          VHOST_BACKEND_TYPE_USER, 0);
     if (ret < 0) {
         error_setg_errno(errp, -ret, "vhost_dev_init failed");
         goto err_virtio;
     }
+
+   if (virtio_host_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM) &&
+       !(fs->vhost_dev.hdev_features & (1ull << VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM))) {
+       error_setg(errp, "IOMMU is not supported by the vhost-user device 
backend");
+       goto err_iommu_needed;
+   }

Also, can this logic be made generic for all vhost-user devices? It's
not really specific to vhost-user-fs.


Sure, I can do that. I wasn't sure whether this restriction was only for vhost-user-fs or whether it was generic for all vhost-user devices. I will include this in a next version of the patch.


Cheers,
