Hi, Joerg

Not sure whether you think this calculation is correct.

If I missed something for this " + 1" in your formula, I am glad to hear your
explanation. So that I could learn something from you :-)

I'm not familiar enough with this aspect of the driver to confirm whether the change is appropriate or not, but it does seem worth noting that using DIV_ROUND_UP would be an even neater approach.

Robin.

Have a good day~

In commit <8bf478163e69> ("iommu/vt-d: Split up iommu->domains array"), it
it splits iommu->domains in two levels. Each first level contains 256
entries of second level. In case of the ndomains is exact a multiple of
256, it would have one more extra first level entry for current
implementation.

This patch refines this calculation to reduce the extra first level entry.
