Subject: [PATCH v4 0/5] iommu: Standardize ATS robustness and state tracking
Date: Mon, 25 May 2026 18:43:42 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260525184347.4059549-1-praan@google.com> (raw)
The primary motivation for this series is an ATS state mismatch observed
under heavy load (via iova_stress). A failure in pci_enable_ats() leaves
IOMMU drivers like arm-smmu-v3 with inconsistent state leading to PCI core
warnings during device detach.
While David's recent work [1] addressed a discovery race for specific
quirked devices by moving them to the HEADER phase, gaps remained
regarding how Virtual Functions (VFs) inherit state from their Physical
Functions (PFs). Specifically, pci_ats_supported() did not account for
PF-level quirked status, and pci_prepare_ats() lacked STU validation for
VFs.
Based on discussion with Jason in v3 it was decided that IOMMU drivers
should explicitly check pci_ats_supported before calling pci_prepare_ats
and the device probe should fail if pci_prepare_ats fails. Since these
early gates preclude software configuration errors, any remaining failure
during pci_enable_ats() is treated as a kernel bug & reported via WARN().
This series standardizes this pattern across ARM SMMUv3, Intel VT-d, &
AMD IOMMU drivers.

[v4]
- Standardized the pattern across Intel VT-d and AMD IOMMU drivers.
- Replaced the SMMUv3 ats_prepared gate with a fatal probe-fail logic.
- Utilized WARN() macros for runtime enablement failures in all drivers.
- Collected R-b tags from Jason and Sami.
