With the previous version of the series I hit a problem on Ivybridge where apparently the dma engine width is not respected. At least that is my layman interpretation of the errors. From the older thread:

Does this look familiar or at least plausible to you? Is this something your new series has fixed?

This happens during attaching a domain to device. It has nothing to do
with this patch series. I will look into this issue, but not in this
email thread context.

I am not sure what step is attaching domain to device, but these type messages:

<3> [209.526605] DMAR: intel_iommu_map: iommu width (39) is not
 >> sufficient for the mapped address (ffff008000)

They definitely appear to happen at runtime, as i915 is getting exercised by userspace.

AFAICS this certainly might be related to this series - iommu-dma will

Oh! I looked at the wrong function. prepare_domain_attach_device()
prints a similar message which made me believe that it was not caused
by the this patches series.

constrain IOVA allocation based on the domain geometry that the driver reports, which in this case is set only once when first allocating the domain. Thus it looks like both the dmar_domain->gaw adjustment in prepare_domain_attach_device() and the domain_use_first_level() business in intel_alloc_iova() effectively get lost in this conversion, since the domain geometry never gets updated to reflect those additional constraints.

Sounds reasonable. I will look into the code and work out a fix.
