[PATCH 0/12] extended allocator for amd iommu
From: Joerg Roedel
Date: Fri May 22 2009 - 08:23:34 EST
This patchset changes the allocator for dma addresses in the AMD IOMMU
driver for Linux to support a dynamic size. This patchset extends the
default size for the dma_ops aperture to 128MB per default with
pre-allocated page tables. If the address space is too small it will be
extended dynamically by another 128MB, this time without preallocating
the page tables. This way the aperture can grow up to 4GB. It is
designed to be easily extendable to even larger dma_ops apertures.
The code also introduces three changes to enable stress testing of this
code with CONFIG_IOMMU_STRESS. Please review.
