[PATCH v5 1/6] iommu: add generic boot option iommu.dma_mode

From: Zhen Lei
Date: Tue Apr 09 2019 - 08:54:21 EST


Currently the IOMMU dma contains 3 modes: passthrough, lazy, strict. The
passthrough mode bypass the IOMMU, the lazy mode defer the invalidation
of hardware TLBs, and the strict mode invalidate IOMMU hardware TLBs
synchronously. The three modes are mutually exclusive. But the current
boot options are confused, such as: iommu.passthrough and iommu.strict,
because they are no good to be coexist. So add iommu.dma_mode.

1 - Bypass the IOMMU for DMA.

+ passthrough
+ Configure DMA to bypass the IOMMU by default.
+ lazy
+ Request that DMA unmap operations use deferred
+ invalidation of hardware TLBs, for increased

+ Will fall back to strict mode if not supported by
+ the relevant IOMMU driver.
