      Intel IOMMU Pass Through Support · 4ed0d3e6
      Fenghua Yu 提交于
      The patch adds kernel parameter intel_iommu=pt to set up pass through
      mode in context mapping entry. This disables DMAR in linux kernel; but
      KVM still runs on VT-d and interrupt remapping still works.
      
      In this mode, kernel uses swiotlb for DMA API functions but other VT-d
      functionalities are enabled for KVM. KVM always uses multi level
      translation page table in VT-d. By default, pass though mode is disabled
      in kernel.
      
      This is useful when people don't want to enable VT-d DMAR in kernel but
      still want to use KVM and interrupt remapping for reasons like DMAR
      performance concern or debug purpose.
