ops __finalise_sg Disable combining sg segments in the dma-iommu api. Combining the sg segments exposes a bug in the intel i915 driver which causes visual artifacts and the screen to freeze. This is most likely because of how the i915 handles the returned list. It probably doesn't respect the returned value specifying the number of elements in the list and instead depends on the previous

Normal boot path on system with iommu support: swiotlb buffer will be allocated early at first and then try to initialize iommu, if iommu for intel or AMD could setup properly, swiotlb buffer will be freed. The early allocating is with bootmem, and could panic when we try to use kdump with buffer above 4G only, or with memmap to limit mem under 4G. for example: memmap=4095M$1M to remove memory

Convert the AMD iommu driver to the dma-iommu api. Remove the iova handling and reserve region code from the AMD iommu driver. Change-log: V6: -add more details to the description of patch 001-iommu-amd-Remove-unnecessary-locking-from-AMD-iommu-.patch -rename handle_deferred_device to iommu_dma_deferred_attach -fix double tabs in 0003-iommu-dma-iommu-Handle-deferred-devices.patch V5: -Rebase on

Convert the AMD iommu driver to the dma-iommu api. Remove the iova handling and reserve region code from the AMD iommu driver. Change-log: V4: -Rebase on top of linux-next -Split the removing of the unnecessary locking in the amd iommu driver into a seperate patch -refactor the "iommu/dma-iommu: Handle deferred devices" patch and address comments v3: -rename dma_limit to dma_mask -exit

Hi all, Here''s a work in progress series whcih does a partial revert of the previous swiotlb changes, and does a partial replacement with Becky Bruce''s series. The most important difference is Becky''s use of phys_addr_t rather than page+offset to represent arbitrary pages. This turns out to be simpler. I didn''t replicate the map_single_page changes, since

Hi Ingo, Here''s the chunk of patches to add Xen Dom0 support (it''s probably worth creating a new xen/dom0 topic branch for it). A dom0 Xen domain is basically the same as a normal domU domain, but it has extra privileges to directly access hardware. There are two issues to deal with: - translating to and from the domain''s pseudo-physical addresses and real machine

This patchset converts the intel iommu driver to the dma-iommu api. While converting the driver I exposed a bug in the intel i915 driver which causes a huge amount of artifacts on the screen of my laptop. You can see a picture of it here: https://github.com/pippy360/kernelPatches/blob/master/IMG_20191219_225922.jpg This issue is most likely in the i915 driver and is most likely caused by the
