[RFC PATCH v2 03/15] arm64: mm: change IOMMU notifier action to attach DMA ops

From: Lorenzo Pieralisi <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-07 13:31:19
Also in: linux-acpi, linux-iommu, linux-pci, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

Current bus notifier in ARM64 (__iommu_attach_notifier)
attempts to attach dma_ops to a device on BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE
action notification.

This causes issues on ACPI based systems, where PCI devices
can be added before the IOMMUs the devices are attached to
had a chance to be probed, causing failures on attempts to
attach dma_ops in that the domain for the respective IOMMU
may not be set-up yet by the time the bus notifier is run.

Devices dma_ops do not require to be set-up till the matching
device drivers are probed. This means that instead of running
the notifier attaching dma_ops to devices (__iommu_attach_notifier)
on BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE action, it can be run just before the
device driver is bound to the device in question (on action
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER) so that it is certain that its IOMMU
group and domain are set-up accordingly at the time the
notifier is triggered.

This patch changes the notifier action upon which dma_ops
are attached to devices and defer it to driver binding time,
so that IOMMU devices have a chance to be probed and to register
their bus notifiers before the dma_ops attach sequence for a
device is actually carried out.
