Some vendor IOMMU drivers are able to declare that it is running in a VM context. This is very valuable for the features that only want to be supported on bare metal. Add a capability bit so that it could be used.And how is it used? Who and how will set it?Use the existing iommu_capable(). I should add more descriptions about who and how to use it.I want to see the code that sets this capability.Currently we have Intel VT-d and the virt-iommu setting this capability. static bool intel_iommu_capable(enum iommu_cap cap) { if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY) return domain_update_iommu_snooping(NULL) == 1; if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_INTR_REMAP) return irq_remapping_enabled == 1; + if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_VIOMMU) + return caching_mode_enabled(); return false; } And, +static bool viommu_capable(enum iommu_cap cap) +{ + if (cap == IOMMU_CAP_VIOMMU) + return true; + + return false; +}
These two functions are reading this cap and not setting. Where can I see code that does "cap = IOMMU_CAP_VIOMMU" and not "=="?
