This patches introduces the multiple address spaces support for vDPA

During vDPA device allocation, vDPA device driver needs to report the

This helps to isolate the environments for the virtqueue that will not
be assigned directly. E.g in the case of virtio-net, the control
virtqueue will not be assigned directly to guest.
As a start, simply claim 1 virtqueue groups and 1 address spaces for
all vDPA devices. And vhost-vDPA will simply reject the device with
more than 1 virtqueue groups or address spaces.

virtio-blk: support mq_ops->queue_rqs()
This patch supports mq_ops->queue_rqs() hook. It has an advantage of
batch submission to virtio-blk driver. It also helps polling I/O because
polling uses batched completion of block layer. Batch submission in
queue_rqs() can boost polling performance.
In queue_rqs(), it iterates plug->mq_list, collects requests that
belong to same HW queue until it encounters a request from other
HW queue or sees the end of the list.
Then, virtio-blk adds requests into virtqueue and kicks virtqueue
to submit requests.
If there is an error, it inserts error request to requeue_list and
passes it to ordinary block layer path.
For verification, I did fio test.
(io_uring, randread, direct=1, bs=4K, iodepth=64 numjobs=N)
I set 4 vcpu and 2 virtio-blk queues for VM and run fio test 5 times.
It shows about 2% improvement.
For polling I/O performance, I also did fio test as below.

virtio-blk: support polling I/O
This patch supports polling I/O via virtio-blk driver. Polling
feature is enabled by module parameter "poll_queues" and it sets
dedicated polling queues for virtio-blk. This patch improves the
polling I/O throughput and latency.
The virtio-blk driver doesn't not have a poll function and a poll
queue and it has been operating in interrupt driven method even if
the polling function is called in the upper layer.
virtio-blk polling is implemented upon 'batched completion' of block
layer. virtblk_poll() queues completed request to io_comp_batch->req_list
and later, virtblk_complete_batch() calls unmap function and ends
the requests in batch.
virtio-blk reads the number of poll queues from module parameter
"poll_queues". If VM sets queue parameter as below,
("num-queues=N" [QEMU property], "poll_queues=M" [module parameter])
It allocates N virtqueues to virtio_blk->vqs[N] and it uses [0..(N-M-1)]
as default queues and [(N-M)..(N-1)] as poll queues. Unlike the default
queues, the poll queues have no callback function.
Regarding HW-SW queue mapping, the default queue mapping uses the
existing method that condsiders MSI irq vector. But the poll queue
doesn't have an irq, so it uses the regular blk-mq cpu mapping.
For verifying the improvement, I did Fio polling I/O performance test
with io_uring engine with the options below.
(io_uring, hipri, randread, direct=1, bs=512, iodepth=64 numjobs=N)
I set 4 vcpu and 4 virtio-blk queues - 2 default queues and 2 poll
queues for VM.
As a result, IOPS and average latency improved about 10%.

vdpa: Add support for querying vendor statistics
Allows to read vendor statistics of a vdpa device. The specific
statistics data are received from the upstream driver in the form of an
(attribute name, attribute value) pairs.
An example of statistics for mlx5_vdpa device are:
received_desc - number of descriptors received by the virtqueue
completed_desc - number of descriptors completed by the virtqueue
A descriptor using indirect buffers is still counted as 1. In addition,
N chained descriptors are counted correctly N times as one would expect.
A new callback was added to vdpa_config_ops which provides the means for
the vdpa driver to return statistics results.
The interface allows for reading all the supported virtqueues, including
the control virtqueue if it exists.
Below are some examples taken from mlx5_vdpa which are introduced in the

process to operate as intended, even with active headsets. This
commit adds control of the ground switches to the AAD logic.

ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix microphone noise on ASUS TUF B550M-PLUS
Set microphone pins 0x18 (rear) and 0x19 (front) to VREF_50 to fix the

The initial value was VREF_80.
The same issue is also present on Windows using both the default Windows
driver and all tested Realtek drivers before version 6.0.9049.1. Comparing
Realtek driver 6.0.9049.1 (the first one without the microphone noise) to
Realtek driver 6.0.9047.1 (the last one with the microphone noise)
revealed that the fix is the result of setting pins 0x18 and 0x19 to
VREF_50.
This fix may also work for other boards that have been reported to have
the same microphone issue and use the ALC1150 and ALCS1200A codecs, since

One confusion is that foo.o in multi-object module is an archive
despite of its suffix.
New build flow

[1] single-object module
Since there is only one object, there is no need to keep the LLVM IR.
Use $(CC)+$(LD) to generate an ELF object in one build rule. When LTO
is disabled, $(LD) is unneeded because $(CC) produces an ELF object.
Previously, $(AR) was used to combine LLVM IR files into an archive,
but there was no technical reason to do so. Use $(LD) to merge them
into a single ELF object.

kbuild: do not try to parse *.cmd files for objects provided by compiler
Guenter Roeck reported the build breakage for parisc and csky.
I confirmed nios2 and openrisc are broken as well.
The reason is that they borrow libgcc.a from the toolchains.
For example, see this line in arch/parisc/Makefile:
LIBGCC := $(shell $(CC) -print-libgcc-file-name)
Some objects in libgcc.a are linked to vmlinux.o, but they do not have
.*.cmd files.
Obviously, there is no EXPORT_SYMBOL in external objects. Ignore them.
(Most of the architectures import library code into the kernel tree.
Perhaps those 4 architectures can do similar, but I do not know how
challenging it is.)
