This patch fixes intel-iommu to use dev->coherent_dma_mask in
alloc_coherent. Currently, intel-iommu uses dev->dma_mask in
alloc_coherent but alloc_coherent is supposed to use
coherent_dma_mask. It could break drivers that uses smaller
coherent_dma_mask than dma_mask (though the current code works for the
majority that use the same mask for coherent_dma_mask and dma_mask).
[dwmw2: dma_mask can be bigger than 'unsigned long']

The current Intel IOMMU code assumes that both host page size and Intel
IOMMU page size are 4KiB. The first patch supports variable page size.
This provides support for IA64 which has multiple page sizes.
This patch also adds some other code hooks for IA64 platform including
DMAR_OPERATION_TIMEOUT definition.

Interrupt remapping
Allocate the iommu during the parse of DMA remapping hardware
definition structures. And also, introduce routines for device
scope initialization which will be explicitly called during

The following patch is an update to use an array instead of a list of
IOVA's in the implementation of defered iotlb flushes. It takes
inspiration from sba_iommu.c
I like this implementation better as it encapsulates the batch process
within intel-iommu.c, and no longer touches iova.h (which is shared)

This patch is for batching up the flushing of the IOTLB for the DMAR
implementation found in the Intel VT-d hardware. It works by building a list
of to be flushed IOTLB entries and a bitmap list of which DMAR engine they are
from.
After either a high water mark (250 accessible via debugfs) or 10ms the list
of iova's will be reclaimed and the DMAR engines associated are IOTLB-flushed.
This approach recovers 15 to 20% of the performance lost when using the IOMMU
for my netperf udp stream benchmark with small packets. It can be disabled
with a kernel boot parameter "intel_iommu=strict".
Its use does weaken the IOMMU protections a bit.

lockdep goes off on the iova copy_reserved_iova() because it and a function
it calls grabs locks in the from, and the to of the copy operation.
The function grab locks of the same lock classes triggering the warning. The
first lock grabbed is for the constant reserved areas that is never accessed
after early boot. Technically you could do without grabbing the locks for the
"from" structure its copying reserved areas from.
But dropping the from locks to me looks wrong, even though it would be ok.
The affected code only runs in early boot as its setting up the DMAR
engines.
This patch gives the reserved_ioval_list locks special lockdep classes.

This patch adds PageSelectiveInvalidation support replacing existing
DomainSelectiveInvalidation for intel_{map/unmap}_sg() calls and also
enables to mapping one big contiguous DMA virtual address which is mapped
to discontiguous physical address for SG map/unmap calls.
"Doamin selective invalidations" wipes out the IOMMU address translation
cache based on domain ID where as "Page selective invalidations" wipes out
the IOMMU address translation cache for that address mask range which is
more cache friendly when compared to Domain selective invalidations.
Here is how it is done.
1) changes to iova.c
alloc_iova() now takes a bool size_aligned argument, which
when when set, returns the io virtual address that is
naturally aligned to 2 ^ x, where x is the order
of the size requested.
Returning this io vitual address which is naturally
aligned helps iommu to do the "page selective
invalidations" which is IOMMU cache friendly
over "domain selective invalidations".
2) Changes to driver/pci/intel-iommu.c
Clean up intel_{map/unmap}_{single/sg} () calls so that
s/g map/unamp calls is no more dependent on
intel_{map/unmap}_single()
intel_map_sg() now computes the total DMA virtual address
required and allocates the size aligned total DMA virtual address
and maps the discontiguous physical address to the allocated
contiguous DMA virtual address.
In the intel_unmap_sg() case since the DMA virtual address
is contiguous and size_aligned, PageSelectiveInvalidation
is used replacing earlier DomainSelectiveInvalidations.

Intel IOMMU driver needs memory during DMA map calls to setup its internal
page tables and for other data structures. As we all know that these DMA map
calls are mostly called in the interrupt context or with the spinlock held by
the upper level drivers(network/storage drivers), so in order to avoid any
memory allocation failure due to low memory issues, this patch makes memory
allocation by temporarily setting PF_MEMALLOC flags for the current task
before making memory allocation calls.
We evaluated mempools as a backup when kmem_cache_alloc() fails
and found that mempools are really not useful here because
1) We don't know for sure how much to reserve in advance
2) And mempools are not useful for GFP_ATOMIC case (as we call
memory alloc functions with GFP_ATOMIC)
(akpm: point 2 is wrong...)
With PF_MEMALLOC flag set in the current->flags, the VM subsystem avoids any
watermark checks before allocating memory thus guarantee'ing the memory till
the last free page. Further, looking at the code in mm/page_alloc.c in
__alloc_pages() function, looks like this flag is useful only in the
non-interrupt context.
If we are in the interrupt context and memory allocation in IOMMU driver fails
for some reason, then the DMA map api's will return failure and it is up to
the higher level drivers to retry. Suppose, if upper level driver programs
the controller with the buggy DMA virtual address, the IOMMU will block that
DMA transaction when that happens thus preventing any corruption to main
memory.
So far in our test scenario, we were unable to create any memory allocation
failure inside dma map api calls.
