[PATCH] iommu/riscv: Stop polling when CQCSR reports an error

From: fangyu . yu

Date: Fri Feb 27 2026 - 06:27:20 EST


From: Fangyu Yu <fangyu.yu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The cmdq wait loop busy-polls the consumer index until it advances
or the software timeout expires. If the IOMMU has already signaled
a command queue failure in CQCSR, continuing to poll for progress is
pointless.

Make riscv_iommu_queue_wait() also terminate the poll when any of these
CQCSR error bits are observed.

This helps the caller return earlier in failure cases and avoids
spinning until the full timeout interval when the hardware has already
reported an error. On single-core systems in particular, the current
busy-wait can delay servicing the command-timeout interrupt until the
software timeout expires (90s by default).

Fixes: 856c0cfe5c5f ("iommu/riscv: Command and fault queue support")
