The current VFIO code dynamically resizes this DMA window every time a new memory request is made, which requires that all existing memory be unmapped/remapped. While this strategy worked in DPDK 17.11 and earlier where memory was statically allocated during startup, it is potentially dangerous in DPDK 18.11 and later where memory can be allocated during runtime, temporarily invalidating IOVA memory used by hardware. This new code statically sizes the DMA window at startup, based on the amount of memory installed in the system, avoiding the need to unmap memory during runtime. --- v2: - Drop patch to wrap ppc64 code with ifdef's - Add warning when external memory detected - Change VA memory size detection to scan memseg list when setting DMA window for IOVA=VA - Add explicit error message when attempting to map outside the DMA window David Christensen (1): vfio: modify spapr iommu support to use static window sizing lib/librte_eal/linux/eal_vfio.c | 412 ++++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 186 insertions(+), 226 deletions(-) -- 2.18.2
