Hi,

The series adds support to IORT RMR nodes specified in IORT
Revision E.b -ARM DEN 0049E[0]. RMR nodes are used to describe
memory ranges that are used by endpoints and require a unity
mapping in SMMU.

We have faced issues with 3408iMR RAID controller cards which
fail to boot when SMMU is enabled. This is because these
controllers make use of host memory for various caching related
purposes and when SMMU is enabled the iMR firmware fails to
access these memory regions as there is no mapping for them.
IORT RMR provides a way for UEFI to describe and report these
memory regions so that the kernel can make a unity mapping for
these in SMMU.
Does this mean we are ignoring the RMR memory ranges, and exposing the
entire physical address space to devices using the stream IDs in
question?
Nope. RMR node is used to describe the memory ranges used by end points
behind SMMU. And this information is used to create 1 : 1 mappings for those
ranges in SMMU. Anything outside those ranges will result in translation
fault(if there are no other dynamic DMA mappings).
Excellent! It was not obvious to me from looking at the patches, so I
had to ask.

Thanks,
Ard.

Change History:

v6 --> v7

The only change from v6 is the fix pointed out by Steve to
the SMMUv2 SMR bypass install in patch #8.

Thanks to the Tested-by tags by Laurentiu with SMMUv2 and
Hanjun/Huiqiang with SMMUv3 for v6. I haven't added the tags
yet as the series still needs more review[1].

Feedback and tests on this series is very much appreciated.

v5 --> v6
- Addressed comments from Robin & Lorenzo.
  : Moved iort_parse_rmr() to acpi_iort_init() from
    iort_init_platform_devices().
  : Removed use of struct iort_rmr_entry during the initial
    parse. Using struct iommu_resv_region instead.
  : Report RMR address alignment and overlap errors, but continue.
  : Reworked arm_smmu_init_bypass_stes() (patch # 6).
- Updated SMMUv2 bypass SMR code. Thanks to Jon N (patch #8).
- Set IOMMU protection flags(IOMMU_CACHE, IOMMU_MMIO) based
  on Type of RMR region. Suggested by Jon N.

Thanks,
Shameer

------
v4 --> v5
 -Added a fw_data union to struct iommu_resv_region and removed
  struct iommu_rmr (Based on comments from Joerg/Robin).
 -Added iommu_put_rmrs() to release mem.
 -Thanks to Steve for verifying on SMMUv2, but not added the Tested-by
  yet because of the above changes.

v3 -->v4
-Included the SMMUv2 SMR bypass install changes suggested by
 Steve(patch #7)
-As per Robin's comments, RMR reserve implementation is now
 more generic  (patch #8) and dropped v3 patches 8 and 10.
-Rebase to 5.13-rc1

RFC v2 --> v3
 -Dropped RFC tag as the ACPICA header changes are now ready to be
  part of 5.13[0]. But this series still has a dependency on that patch.
 -Added IORT E.b related changes(node flags, _DSM function 5 checks for
  PCIe).
 -Changed RMR to stream id mapping from M:N to M:1 as per the spec and
  discussion here[1].
 -Last two patches add support for SMMUv2(Thanks to Jon Nettleton!)

Ping,  Can we get some movement on this patchset?  The standard was
was ratified over a year ago, and there is real world hardware that is
using or needs this functionality.

Thanks,
-Jon
