You'd have to go into the BIOS to turn this on for most machines at
least?

But, yeah, it seems like we should be turning DMAR off unless explicitly

the hardware. Not exactly an area I care about deeply; I've always
worked hard to make sure all virtualization garbage is disabled on every
machine I use.
