Intel IOMMU: Intel IOMMU driver
Actual intel IOMMU driver. Hardware spec can be found at: http://www.intel.com/technology/virtualization This driver sets X86_64 'dma_ops', so hook into standard DMA APIs. In this way, PCI driver will get virtual DMA address. This change is transparent to PCI drivers.

Linux IOMMU Support
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
The architecture spec can be obtained from the below location.
|
||||
|
||||
http://www.intel.com/technology/virtualization/
|
||||
|
||||
This guide gives a quick cheat sheet for some basic understanding.
|
||||
|
||||
Some Keywords
|
||||
|
||||
DMAR - DMA remapping
|
||||
DRHD - DMA Engine Reporting Structure
|
||||
RMRR - Reserved memory Region Reporting Structure
|
||||
ZLR - Zero length reads from PCI devices
|
||||
IOVA - IO Virtual address.
|
||||
|
||||
Basic stuff
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
ACPI enumerates and lists the different DMA engines in the platform, and
|
||||
device scope relationships between PCI devices and which DMA engine controls
|
||||
them.
|
||||
|
||||
What is RMRR?
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
There are some devices the BIOS controls, for e.g USB devices to perform
|
||||
PS2 emulation. The regions of memory used for these devices are marked
|
||||
reserved in the e820 map. When we turn on DMA translation, DMA to those
|
||||
regions will fail. Hence BIOS uses RMRR to specify these regions along with
|
||||
devices that need to access these regions. OS is expected to setup
|
||||
unity mappings for these regions for these devices to access these regions.
|
||||
|
||||
How is IOVA generated?
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Well behaved drivers call pci_map_*() calls before sending command to device
|
||||
that needs to perform DMA. Once DMA is completed and mapping is no longer
|
||||
required, device performs a pci_unmap_*() calls to unmap the region.
|
||||
|
||||
The Intel IOMMU driver allocates a virtual address per domain. Each PCIE
|
||||
device has its own domain (hence protection). Devices under p2p bridges
|
||||
share the virtual address with all devices under the p2p bridge due to
|
||||
transaction id aliasing for p2p bridges.
|
||||
|
||||
IOVA generation is pretty generic. We used the same technique as vmalloc()
|
||||
but these are not global address spaces, but separate for each domain.
|
||||
Different DMA engines may support different number of domains.
|
||||
|
||||
We also allocate gaurd pages with each mapping, so we can attempt to catch
|
||||
any overflow that might happen.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Graphics Problems?
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
If you encounter issues with graphics devices, you can try adding
|
||||
option intel_iommu=igfx_off to turn off the integrated graphics engine.
|
||||
|
||||
Some exceptions to IOVA
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
Interrupt ranges are not address translated, (0xfee00000 - 0xfeefffff).
|
||||
The same is true for peer to peer transactions. Hence we reserve the
|
||||
address from PCI MMIO ranges so they are not allocated for IOVA addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
Boot Message Sample
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Something like this gets printed indicating presence of DMAR tables
|
||||
in ACPI.
|
||||
|
||||
ACPI: DMAR (v001 A M I OEMDMAR 0x00000001 MSFT 0x00000097) @ 0x000000007f5b5ef0
|
||||
|
||||
When DMAR is being processed and initialized by ACPI, prints DMAR locations
|
||||
and any RMRR's processed.
|
||||
|
||||

When DMAR is enabled for use, you will notice..
