intel-iommu: optimize sg map/unmap calls
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
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.
