[PATCH 1/1] x86/iommu: fix incorrect bit operations in setting values
From: Li, Zhen-Hua
Date: Wed Nov 05 2014 - 02:30:58 EST
The function context_set_address_root() and set_root_value are setting new
address in a wrong way, and this patch is trying to fix this problem.
According to Intel Vt-d specs(Feb 2011, Revision 1.3), Chapter 9.1 and 9.2,
field ctp in root entry is using bits 12:63, field asr in context entry is
using bits 12:63.
To set these fields, the following functions are used:
static inline void context_set_address_root(struct context_entry *context,
unsigned long value);
and
static inline void set_root_value(struct root_entry *root, unsigned long value)
But they are using an invalid method to set these fields, in current code, only
a '|' operator is used to set it. This will not set the asr to the expected
value if it has an old value.
For example:
Before calling this function,
context->lo = 0x3456789012111;
value = 0x123456789abcef12;
After we call context_set_address_root(context, value), expected result is
context->lo == 0x123456789abce111;
But the actual result is:
context->lo == 0x1237577f9bbde111;
So we need to clear bits 12:63 before setting the new value, this will fix
this problem.
