Subject: OMAP and MSM IOMMU driver misbehavior
Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2012 15:03:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120123140355.GA19255@amd.com> (raw)

Hi,

while reviewing another IOMMU driver again I came across a problem in
the IOMMU drivers for OMAP and MSM platforms. In both drivers the
'domain_destroy with devices attached' case isn't handled correctly.

OMAP driver seems not to track the devices attached to a domain at all.
So when a domain is destroyed it can happen that the hardware still
references old (and already freed) page-table pointers.

MSM tracks devices in a domain, but does not automatically remove the
devices from a domain that is about to be destroyed.

Please tell me when I mis-read the code, otherwise please fix this in
your drivers so that we can get consistent behavior for IOMMU-API
users :-)

Thanks,

	Joerg
