In order to support dirty page tracking, the driver has to implement the VFIO subsystem's vfio_log_ops. This includes log_start, log_stop, and log_read_and_clear. All of the tracker resources are allocated and dirty tracking on the device is started during log_start. The resources are cleaned up and dirty tracking on the device is stopped during log_stop. The dirty pages are determined and reported during log_read_and_clear. In order to support these callbacks admin queue commands are used. All of the adminq queue command structures and implementations are included as part of this patch. PDS_LM_CMD_DIRTY_STATUS is added to query the current status of dirty tracking on the device. This includes if it's enabled (i.e. number of regions being tracked from the device's perspective) and the maximum number of regions supported from the device's perspective. PDS_LM_CMD_DIRTY_ENABLE is added to enable dirty tracking on the specified number of regions and their iova ranges. PDS_LM_CMD_DIRTY_DISABLE is added to disable dirty tracking for all regions on the device. PDS_LM_CMD_READ_SEQ and PDS_LM_CMD_DIRTY_WRITE_ACK are added to support reading and acknowledging the currently dirtied pages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
