[PATCH rc v1 2/4] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Implement is_attach_deferred() for kdump
From: Nicolin Chen
Date: Thu Apr 09 2026 - 15:48:32 EST
Though the kdump kernel adopts the crashed kernel's stream table, the iommu
core will still try to attach each probed device to a default domain, which
overwrites the adopted STE and breaks in-flight DMA from that device.
Implement an is_attach_deferred() callback to prevent this. For each device
that has STE.V=1 in the adopted table, defer the default domain attachment,
until the device driver explicitly requests it.
Fixes: b63b3439b856 ("iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Abort all transactions if SMMU is enabled in kdump kernel")
