x86: Split swiotlb initialization into two stages
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The commit f4780ca moves
swiotlb initialization before dma32_free_bootmem(). It's
supposed to fix a bug that the commit
75f1cdf introduced, we
initialize SWIOTLB right after dma32_free_bootmem so we wrongly
steal memory area allocated for GART with broken BIOS earlier.

However, the above commit introduced another problem, which
likely breaks machines with huge amount of memory. Such a box
use the majority of DMA32_ZONE so there is no memory for
swiotlb.

With this patch, the x86 IOMMU initialization sequence are:

1. We set swiotlb to 1 in the case of (max_pfn > MAX_DMA32_PFN
   && !no_iommu). If swiotlb usage is forced by the boot option,
   we go to the step 3 and finish (we don't try to detect IOMMUs).

2. We call the detection functions of all the IOMMUs. The
   detection function sets x86_init.iommu.iommu_init to the IOMMU
   initialization function (so we can avoid calling the
   initialization functions of all the IOMMUs needlessly).

3. We initialize swiotlb (and set dma_ops to swiotlb_dma_ops) if
   swiotlb is set to 1.

4. If the IOMMU initialization function doesn't need swiotlb
   (e.g. the initialization is sucessful) then sets swiotlb to zero.

5. If we find that swiotlb is set to zero, we free swiotlb
   resource.
