Description: /sys/kernel/iommu_groups/ contains a number of sub-
|
|
directories, each representing an IOMMU group. The
|
|
name of the sub-directory matches the iommu_group_id()
|
|
for the group, which is an integer value. Within each
|
|
subdirectory is another directory named "devices" with
|
|
links to the sysfs devices contained in this group.
|
|
The group directory also optionally contains a "name"
|
|
file if the IOMMU driver has chosen to register a more
|
|
common name for the group.

Description: /sys/kernel/iommu_groups/reserved_regions list IOVA

|
regions that are reserved. Not necessarily all
|
|
reserved regions are listed. This is typically used to
|
|
output direct-mapped, MSI, non mappable regions. Each
|
|
region is described on a single line: the 1st field is
|
|
the base IOVA, the second is the end IOVA and the third
|
|
field describes the type of the region.

Description: In case an RMRR is used only by graphics or USB devices
|
|
it is now exposed as "direct-relaxable" instead of "direct".
|
|
In device assignment use case, for instance, those RMRR
|
|
are considered to be relaxable and safe.

Description: /sys/kernel/iommu_groups/<grp_id>/type shows the type of default
|
|
domain in use by iommu for this group. See include/linux/iommu.h
|
|
for possible read values. A privileged user could request kernel to
|
|
change the group type by writing to this file. Valid write values:
|
|
|
|
======== ======================================================
|
|
DMA All the DMA transactions from the device in this group
|
|
are translated by the iommu.
|
|
identity All the DMA transactions from the device in this group
|
|
are not translated by the iommu.
|
|
auto Change to the type the device was booted with.
|
|
======== ======================================================
|
|
|
|
The default domain type of a group may be modified only when
|
|
|
|
- The group has only one device.
|
|
- The device in the group is not bound to any device driver.
|
|
So, the users must unbind the appropriate driver before
|
|
changing the default domain type.
|
|
|
|
Unbinding a device driver will take away the driver's control
|
|
over the device and if done on devices that host root file
|
|
system could lead to catastrophic effects (the users might
|
|
need to reboot the machine to get it to normal state). So, it's
|
|
expected that the users understand what they're doing.
