[PATCH v5 03/24] iommu/amd: Detect and initialize AMD vIOMMU feature

From: Suravee Suthikulpanit

Date: Mon Sep 14 2026 - 14:53:58 EST


The feature is advertised w/ EFR[VIOMMUSup]. Please see the AMD IOMMU
specification[1] for more detail.

Gate amd_viommu_init() on this IOMMU's EFR[VIOMMUSup]
(iommu->features) at the PCI init call site. Do not use
check_feature()/amd_iommu_efr; that global mask is the AND of
every IOMMU. Do not fail other IOMMUs when one instance lacks
the bit or init fails.

Set AMD_IOMMU_FLAG_VIOMMU_EN when amd_viommu_init() succeeds.
Log PCI names of IOMMUs that have that flag set.

Forward-declare struct amd_iommu in amd_viommu.h so the header
is self-contained.

When CONFIG_AMD_IOMMU_IOMMUFD is off, the amd_viommu_init() stub
returns 0 so a missing build is not logged as an init failure on
EFR[VIOMMUSup] hardware.
