[RFC/RFT] Add noats flag to boot parameters
From: Gil Kupfer
Date: Sun Apr 29 2018 - 14:17:54 EST
This patch adds noats option to the pci boot parameter.
When noats is selected, all ATS related functions fail immediately and
the IOMMU is configured to not use device-iotlb.
Any function that checks for ATS capabilities directly against the
devices should also check this flag. (Currently, such functions exist
only in IOMMU drivers, and they are covered by this patch.)
The motivation behind this patch is the existence of malicious devices.
Lots of research has been done about how to utilitize the IOMMU as a
protection from such devices. When ATS is supported, any I/O device can
access any physical access by faking device-IOTLB entries.
Adding the ability to ignore these entries lets sysadmins enhance system
security.

This patch is intended to add the ability to disable ATS at boot time.
My IOMMU has the ATS ecap but I don't have any PCI device that supports
ATS so I can't fully test it. However, I did ran it (with and without the
new boot flag) on QEMU with virtualized IOMMU with the device-iotlb flag
and it seems that at least the machine does not crush.
QEMU version:
