[PATCH v12 2/5] iommu: Enhance IOMMU default DMA mode build options
From: John Garry
Date: Fri Jun 11 2021 - 08:26:32 EST
From: Zhen Lei <thunder.leizhen@xxxxxxxxxx>
First, add build options IOMMU_DEFAULT_{LAZY|STRICT}, so that we have the
opportunity to set {lazy|strict} mode as default at build time. Then put
the two config options in an choice, as they are mutually exclusive.
[jpg: Make choice between strict and lazy only (and not passthrough)]

+ default IOMMU_DEFAULT_STRICT
+ help
+ This option allows an IOMMU DMA mode to be chosen at build time, to
+ override the default DMA mode of each ARCH, removing the need to
+ pass in kernel parameters through command line. It is still possible
+ to provide ARCH-specific or common boot options to override this
+ option.

+ If unsure, keep the default.

+ For every IOMMU DMA unmap operation, the flush operation of IOTLB and

+
+config IOMMU_DEFAULT_LAZY
+ bool "lazy"
+ help
+ Support lazy mode, where for every IOMMU DMA unmap operation, the
+ flush operation of IOTLB and the free operation of IOVA are deferred.
+ They are only guaranteed to be done before the related IOVA will be
+ reused.
+
+ The isolation provided in this mode is not as secure as STRICT mode,
+ such that a vulnerable time window may be created between the DMA
+ unmap and the mapping finally being torn down in the IOMMU, where the
+ device can still access the system memory. However this mode may
+ provide better performance in high throughput scenarios, and is still
+ considerably more secure than passthrough mode or no IOMMU.
