This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled iommu/amd: Apply workaround for ATS write permission check to the linux-3.19.y-queue branch of the 3.19.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.19.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.19.8-ckt17. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.19.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From ee25dfd94d765de21a3b5344d64ebe6820b7c941 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jay Cornwall <jay@jcornwall.me> Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2016 15:48:01 -0600 Subject: iommu/amd: Apply workaround for ATS write permission check commit 358875fd52ab8f00f66328cbf1a1d2486f265829 upstream. The AMD Family 15h Models 30h-3Fh (Kaveri) BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide omitted part of the BIOS IOMMU L2 register setup specification. Without this setup the IOMMU L2 does not fully respect write permissions when handling an ATS translation request. The IOMMU L2 will set PTE dirty bit when handling an ATS translation with write permission request, even when PTE RW bit is clear. This may occur by direct translation (which would cause a PPR) or by prefetch request from the ATC. This is observed in practice when the IOMMU L2 modifies a PTE which maps a pagecache page. The ext4 filesystem driver BUGs when asked to writeback these (non-modified) pages. Enable ATS write permission check in the Kaveri IOMMU L2 if BIOS has not.
