As per PCIe specification(section 10.5), If a VF implements an ATS capability, its associated PF must implement an ATS capability. The ATS Capabilities in VFs and their associated PFs are permitted to be enabled independently. Also, it states that the Smallest Translation Unit (STU) for VFs must be hardwired to Zero and the associated PF's value applies to VFs STU. The current code allows to enable ATS on VFs only if it is already enabled on associated PF, which is not necessary as per the specification. It is only required to have valid STU programmed on PF to enable ATS on VFs. Adding code to write the first VFs STU to a PF's STU when PFs ATS is not enabled.Can you please add here quotes from the spec and its version? I don't see anything like this in my version of PCIe specification.See PCIe r6.0, sec 10.5.1.Awesome, I have old versions.
OK, where should I read about this sentence? "It is only required to have valid STU programmed on PF to enable ATS on VFs. Adding code to write the first VFs STU to a PF's STU when PFs ATS is not enabled." From spec: "Smallest Translation Unit (STU) - This value indicates to the Function the minimum number of 4096-byte blocks that is indicated in a Translation Completions or Invalidate Requests. This is a power of 2 multiplier and the number of blocks is 2STU. A value of 0 0000b indicates one block and a value of 1 1111b indicates 231 blocks (or 8 TB total) For VFs, this field must be hardwired to Zero. The associated PF's value applies. Default value is 0 0000b" And enable bit doesn't have any sentence about STU.
