[PATCH v2 1/3] iommu: Add per-domain strictness and combine with the global default

From: Douglas Anderson
Date: Thu Jun 24 2021 - 13:18:32 EST


Strictness has the semantic of being a per-domain property. This is
why iommu_get_dma_strict() takes a "struct iommu_domain" as a
parameter. Let's add knowledge to the "struct iommu_domain" so we can
know whether we'd like each domain to be strict.

In this patch nothing sets the per-domain strictness, it just paves
the way for future patches to do so.

Prior to this patch we could only affect strictness at a global
level. We'll still honor the global strictness level if it has been
explicitly set and it's stricter than the one requested per-domain.

NOTE: it's even more obvious that iommu_set_dma_strict() and
iommu_get_dma_strict() are non-symmetric after this change. However,
they have always been asymmetric by design [0].

The function iommu_get_dma_strict() should now make it super obvious
where strictness comes from and who overides who. Though the function
changed a bunch to make the logic clearer, the only two new rules
should be:
* Devices can force strictness for themselves, overriding the cmdline
"iommu.strict=0" or a call to iommu_set_dma_strict(false)).
* Devices can request non-strictness for themselves, assuming there
was no cmdline "iommu.strict=1" or a call to
iommu_set_dma_strict(true).

This patch clearly will cause conflicts if John Garry's patches [1]
land before it. It shouldn't be too hard to rebase,
though. Essentially with John's patches it'll be impossible for what's
called `cmdline_dma_strict` in my patch to be "default". It'll
probably make sense to rearrange the logic/names a bit though just to
make things clearer.

Changes in v2:
- No longer based on changes adding strictness to "struct device"
- Updated kernel-parameters docs.
