[RFC PATCH v2 06/25] iommu/dma: Reserve a per-domain IOVA window for PISA pages

From: Luigi Rizzo

Date: Mon Nov 09 2026 - 13:34:52 EST


PISA buffers need to be quickly identified from their iova, and may need
to be mapped in multiple domains. We can achieve both by reserving an IOVA
range for PISA pages in each domain.

Add per-domain PISA IOVA window descriptors in struct iommu_dma_cookie
and a global slot allocator (pisa_slot_alloc() / pisa_slot_free()).
The window is sized to twice the maximum allowed PISA buffer space,
defaulting to max(64MB, 1/4 of physical RAM).

A buffer is mapped at the same slot offset in all windows for the domains
that need to access it. IOVA allocation is done with a bitmap (1 bit
per 2MB buffer, hence a 4KB bitmap supports 64GB of buffer space) at
negligible cost.
