Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/5] dma-mapping: Avoid double decrypting with DMA_RESTRICTED_POOL
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 14:50:39 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260330145043.1586623-2-smostafa@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260330145043.1586623-1-smostafa@google.com>
In case a device have a restricted DMA pool, it will be decrypted
by default.
However, in the path of dma_direct_alloc() memory can be allocated
from this pool using, __dma_direct_alloc_pages() =>
dma_direct_alloc_swiotlb()
After that from the same function, it will attempt to decrypt it
using dma_set_decrypted() if force_dma_unencrypted().
Which results in the memory being decrypted twice.
It's not clear how the does realm world/hypervisors deal with that,
for example:
- CCA: Clear a bit in the page table and call realm IPA_STATE_SET.
- TDX: Issue a hypercall.
- pKVM: Which doesn't implement force_dma_unencrypted() at the moment,
uses a share hypercall.
Change that to only encrypt/decrypt memory that are not allocated
from the restricted dma pools.
Fixes: f4111e39a52a ("swiotlb: Add restricted DMA alloc/free support")
