[PATCH 6/7] vfio/cdx: keep logical vm_pgoff in MMIO region mmap
From: Abdifatah Suruur
Date: Mon Sep 21 2026 - 08:35:32 EST
vfio_cdx_mmap_mmio() overwrites vma->vm_pgoff with the physical frame
number of the MMIO region and passes it to io_remap_pfn_range(). The
VMA is inserted into the device file's mapping->i_mmap interval tree
keyed by vm_pgoff, which VFIO expects to be the logical file offset:
the core links every device mmap to the device inode's i_mapping
precisely so that unmap_mapping_range() can revoke all mappings
associated with a device (see vfio_device_cdev_open()).
With a raw PFN in vm_pgoff the interval tree entry lands in the wrong
coordinate space and unmap_mapping_range() cannot find the VMA,
leaving stale MMIO mappings behind any revocation attempt. Keep
vm_pgoff in the logical VFIO offset space, as vfio-pci does, and pass
the physical PFN to io_remap_pfn_range() explicitly.
This is defensive hygiene: none of vfio-platform, vfio/fsl-mc and
vfio/cdx call unmap_mapping_range() today, so no reachable
stale-mapping issue exists. Keeping vm_pgoff logical preserves the
VFIO core contract for any future revocation path.
