Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] iommu/amd: Don't split flush for amd_iommu_domain_flush_all()
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:30:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260415003046.2275802-1-wnliu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260414233607.GK2588311@nvidia.com>
We have observed multiple full invalidations occurring during device
detach when we are done using the vfio-device.
blocked_domain_attach_device()
-> detach_device()
-> amd_iommu_domain_flush_all()
-> amd_iommu_domain_flush_pages(..., CMD_INV_IOMMU_ALL_PAGES_ADDRESS)
while (size != 0) {
-> __domain_flush_pages( flush_size /* power of 2 flush_size */)
-> domain_flush_pages_v1()
-> build_inv_iommu_pages()
-> build_inv_address()
}
build_inv_address() will trigger a full invalidation if the chunk
size > (1 << 51). Consequently, the guest will issue multiple full
invalidations for a single call to amd_iommu_domain_flush_all()
Without this patch, we will see 10 time instead of 1 time full
invalidations for every amd_iommu_domain_flush_all().
Fixes: a270be1b3fdf ("iommu/amd: Use only natural aligned flushes in a VM")
