Yes,you're right. I will make this configuration to be effective for other architectures. BTW, can you give some opinion about below patches? https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10857601/ > >> Signed-off-by: Zhen Lei >> --- >> drivers/iommu/Kconfig | 14 ++++++++++++++ >> drivers/iommu/iommu.c | 5 +++++ >> 2 files changed, 19 insertions(+) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/iommu/Kconfig b/drivers/iommu/Kconfig >> index 6f07f3b21816c64..5daa110d0e83a07 100644 >> --- a/drivers/iommu/Kconfig >> +++ b/drivers/iommu/Kconfig >> @@ -85,6 +85,20 @@ config IOMMU_DEFAULT_PASSTHROUGH >> >> If unsure, say N here. >> >> +config IOMMU_DMA_DEFAULT_LAZY_MODE >> + bool "IOMMU DMA use lazy mode to flush IOTLB and free IOVA" >> + depends on IOMMU_API >> + help >> + Support lazy mode, where for every IOMMU DMA unmap operation, the >> + flush operation of IOTLB and the free operation of IOVA are deferred. >> + They are only guaranteed to be done before the related IOVA will be >> + reused.
