Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The vhost-user-gpu protocol is aiming at sharing the rendering result
|
|
of a virtio-gpu, done from a vhost-user slave process to a vhost-user
|
|
master process (such as QEMU). It bears a resemblance to a display
|
|
server protocol, if you consider QEMU as the display server and the
|
|
slave as the client, but in a very limited way. Typically, it will
|
|
work by setting a scanout/display configuration, before sending flush
|
|
events for the display updates. It will also update the cursor shape
|
|
and position.
|
|
|
|
The protocol is sent over a UNIX domain stream socket, since it uses
|
|
socket ancillary data to share opened file descriptors (DMABUF fds or
|
|
shared memory). The socket is usually obtained via
|
|
``VHOST_USER_GPU_SET_SOCKET``.
|
|
|
|
Requests are sent by the *slave*, and the optional replies by the
|
|
*master*.
|
|
|
|
Wire format
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Unless specified differently, numbers are in the machine native byte
|
|
order.
|
|
|
|
A vhost-user-gpu message (request and reply) consists of 3 header
|
|
fields and a payload.
|
|
|
|
+---------+-------+------+---------+
|
|
| request | flags | size | payload |
|
|
+---------+-------+------+---------+
|
|
|
|
Header
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
:request: ``u32``, type of the request
|
|
|
|
:flags: ``u32``, 32-bit bit field:
|
|
|
|
- Bit 2 is the reply flag - needs to be set on each reply
|
|
|
|
:size: ``u32``, size of the payload
|
|
|

C structure
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
In QEMU the vhost-user-gpu message is implemented with the following struct:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: c
|
|
|
|
typedef struct VhostUserGpuMsg {
|
|
uint32_t request; /* VhostUserGpuRequest */
|
|
uint32_t flags;
|
|
uint32_t size; /* the following payload size */
|
|
union {
|
|
VhostUserGpuCursorPos cursor_pos;
|
|
VhostUserGpuCursorUpdate cursor_update;
|
|
VhostUserGpuScanout scanout;
|
|
VhostUserGpuUpdate update;
|
|
VhostUserGpuDMABUFScanout dmabuf_scanout;
|
|
struct virtio_gpu_resp_display_info display_info;
|
|
uint64_t u64;
|
|
} payload;
|
|
} QEMU_PACKED VhostUserGpuMsg;
|
|
|
|
Protocol features
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
None yet.
|
|
|
|
As the protocol may need to evolve, new messages and communication
|
|
changes are negotiated thanks to preliminary
|
|
``VHOST_USER_GPU_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES`` and
|
|
``VHOST_USER_GPU_SET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES`` requests.

|
|
|
|
The display should be flushed and presented according to updated

|
|
|
|
Note: there is no data payload, since the scanout is shared thanks
|

to DMABUF, that must have been set previously with
|
|
``VHOST_USER_GPU_DMABUF_SCANOUT``.
