Intel IOMMU: DMAR detection and parsing logic This patch supports the upcomming Intel IOMMU hardware a.k.a.

That would be the Xen version of this code that could potentially assign whole devices to guests. I expect this to be only useful in some special cases though because most hardware is not virtualizable and you typically want an own instance for each guest. Ok at some point KVM might implement this too; i likely would use this code for this. > Do we > have any benchmark results to help us to decide whether a merge would be > justified? The main advantage for doing it in the normal kernel is not performance, but more safety. Broken devices won't be able to corrupt memory by doing random DMA. Unfortunately that doesn't work for graphics yet, for that need user space interfaces for the X server are needed. There are some potential performance benefits too: - When you have a device that cannot address the complete address range an IOMMU can remap its memory instead of bounce buffering. Remapping is likely cheaper than copying. - The IOMMU can merge sg lists into a single virtual block. This could potentially speed up SG IO when the device is slow walking SG lists. [I long ago benchmarked 5% on some block benchmark with an old MPT Fusion; but it probably depends a lot on the HBA] And you get better driver debugging because unexpected memory accesses from the devices will cause a trappable event. > > Does it slow anything down? It adds more overhead to each IO so yes. This patch: Add support for early detection and parsing of DMAR's (DMA Remapping) reported to OS via ACPI tables.

x86, x2apic: Enable the bios request for x2apic optout On the platforms which are x2apic and interrupt-remapping capable, Linux kernel is enabling x2apic even if the BIOS doesn't. This is to take advantage of the features that x2apic brings in. Some of the OEM platforms are running into issues because of this, as their bios is not x2apic aware. For example, this was resulting in interrupt migration issues on one of the platforms. Also if the BIOS SMI handling uses APIC interface to send SMI's, then the BIOS need to be aware of x2apic mode that OS has enabled. On some of these platforms, BIOS doesn't have a HW mechanism to turnoff the x2apic feature to prevent OS from enabling it. To resolve this mess, recent changes to the VT-d2 specification: http://download.intel.com/technology/computing/vptech/Intel(r)_VT_for_Direct_IO.pdf includes a mechanism that provides BIOS a way to request system software to opt out of enabling x2apic mode. Look at the x2apic optout flag in the DMAR tables before enabling the x2apic mode in the platform. Also print a warning that we have disabled x2apic based on the BIOS request. Kernel boot parameter "intremap=no_x2apic_optout" can be used to override the BIOS x2apic optout request.

x64, x2apic/intr-remap: IO-APIC support for interrupt-remapping IO-APIC support in the presence of interrupt-remapping infrastructure. IO-APIC RTE will be programmed with interrupt-remapping table entry(IRTE) index and the IRTE will contain information about the vector, cpu destination, trigger mode etc, which traditionally was present in the IO-APIC RTE. Introduce a new irq_chip for cleaner irq migration (in the process context as opposed to the current irq migration in the context of an interrupt. interrupt-remapping infrastructure will help us achieve this cleanly). For edge triggered, irq migration is a simple atomic update(of vector and cpu destination) of IRTE and flush the hardware cache. For level triggered, we need to modify the io-apic RTE aswell with the update vector information, along with modifying IRTE with vector and cpu destination. So irq migration for level triggered is little bit more complex compared to edge triggered migration. But the good news is, we use the same algorithm for level triggered migration as we have today, only difference being, we now initiate the irq migration from process context instead of the interrupt context. In future, when we do a directed EOI (combined with cpu EOI broadcast suppression) to the IO-APIC, level triggered irq migration will also be as simple as edge triggered migration and we can do the irq migration with a simple atomic update to IO-APIC RTE. TBD: some tests/changes needed in the presence of fixup_irqs() for level triggered irq migration.

Intel IOMMU: DMAR detection and parsing logic This patch supports the upcomming Intel IOMMU hardware a.k.a. Intel(R) Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O Architecture and the hardware spec for the same can be found here http://www.intel.com/technology/virtualization/index.htm FAQ! (questions from akpm, answers from ak) > So... what's all this code for? > > I assume that the intent here is to speed things up under Xen, etc? Yes in some cases, but not this code. That would be the Xen version of this code that could potentially assign whole devices to guests. I expect this to be only useful in some special cases though because most hardware is not virtualizable and you typically want an own instance for each guest. Ok at some point KVM might implement this too; i likely would use this code for this. > Do we > have any benchmark results to help us to decide whether a merge would be > justified? The main advantage for doing it in the normal kernel is not performance, but more safety. Broken devices won't be able to corrupt memory by doing random DMA. Unfortunately that doesn't work for graphics yet, for that need user space interfaces for the X server are needed. There are some potential performance benefits too: - When you have a device that cannot address the complete address range an IOMMU can remap its memory instead of bounce buffering. Remapping is likely cheaper than copying. - The IOMMU can merge sg lists into a single virtual block. This could potentially speed up SG IO when the device is slow walking SG lists. [I long ago benchmarked 5% on some block benchmark with an old MPT Fusion; but it probably depends a lot on the HBA] And you get better driver debugging because unexpected memory accesses from the devices will cause a trappable event. > > Does it slow anything down? It adds more overhead to each IO so yes. This patch: Add support for early detection and parsing of DMAR's (DMA Remapping) reported to OS via ACPI tables. DMA remapping(DMAR) devices support enables independent address translations for Direct Memory Access(DMA) from Devices. These DMA remapping devices are reported via ACPI tables and includes pci device scope covered by these DMA remapping device.
