So, something like this? if (cc_platform_has(CC_ATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT) && swiotlb_cc_guest_needs_default_pool()) return SWIOTLB_POOL_CC_GUEST; where: static bool swiotlb_cc_guest_needs_default_pool(void) { for_each_of_allnodes(np) { if (swiotlb_of_dma_needs_default_pool(np)) return true; } return false; } I didn't quite follow the ACPI-related feedback. IIUC, on ACPI systems we will end up using SWIOTLB_POOL_CC_GUEST? -aneesh
