Hmm, we need to work out a good abstraction for this. On Tue, Nov 20, 2012 at 07:24:56PM +0530, Varun Sethi wrote: > Added the following domain attributes required by FSL PAMU driver: > 1.

We were thinking that maybe this attribute could be useful to other IOMMUs in the future. Stashing is not a concept that would only work on Freescale processors. But we'll change it if you insist.

Yes, I know that this is possible. But do you plan to support that or is it sufficient when the whole subwindow is mapped? Joerg

How does a user of the interface find > out whether there are any limitations on specifying a value of zero (in > the case of PAMU, that would be a maximum 1 MiB naturally-aligned > aperture to support arbitrary 4KiB mappings)? How about if we say that the default value for subwindows is zero and this what you get when you read the geometry (iommu_get_attr) after initializing the domain? In that case the user would know that implication of setting subwindows to zero with respect to the aperture size. Also, should we introduce an additional API like "iommu_check_attr", which the user can use to validate the attribute value. For example in case of geometry, the user can fill up the structure and pass it to the iommu driver in order to verify the aperture and subwindows field. -Varun

That might be OK, though is there a way to reset the domain later on to get back to that informational state?

Doesn't the current API raise an error if you do something unsupported? In any case I don't think making a series of guesses and seeing which ones are accepted is a good substitute for being able to simply read out the relevant parameters. -Scott

[Sethi Varun-B16395] We can introduce an API to determine the permissible range of values for an attribute, but it may be redundant for other IOMMU implementations. For the IOMMU implementations where geometry is just a read only attribute, iommu_get_attr returns the set of permissible values. I think it would be better if we can add a read only field (for the users) "max_subwindows" to the geometry. -Varun

Added the following domain attributes required by FSL PAMU driver: 1. Subwindows field added to the iommu domain geometry attribute. 2. Added new iommu stash attribute, which allows setting of the LIODN specific stash id parameter through IOMMU API. 3. Added an attribute for enabling/disabling DMA to a particular memory window.
