vhost-vdpa: uAPI to resume the device
mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.3-rc1 commit 3b688d7a category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I86ITO Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3b688d7a086d0438649ea37990c6e811954fc780 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This new ioctl adds support for resuming the device from userspace. This is required when trying to restore the device in a functioning state after it's been suspended. It is already possible to reset a suspended device, but that means the device must be reconfigured and all the IOMMU/IOTLB mappings must be recreated. This new operation allows the device to be resumed without going through a full reset. This is particularly useful when trying to perform offline migration of a virtual machine (also known as snapshot/restore) as it allows the VMM to resume the virtual machine back to a running state after the snapshot is performed.
