Subject: [PATCH RFCv1 0/3] Allow ATS to be always on for certain ATS-capable devices
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 20:56:39 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1768624180.git.nicolinc@nvidia.com> (raw)
PCI ATS function is controlled by IOMMU driver calling pci_enable_ats() and
pci_disable_ats() helpers. In general, IOMMU driver only enables ATS, when
a translation channel is enabled on a PASID, typically for an SVA use case.
When a device's RID is IOMMU bypassed and there is no active PASID running
SVA use case, ATS is always disabled.
However, certain pcie devices support non-PASID ATS on its RID, even if the
RID is IOMMU bypassed. E.g. CXL.cache capability requires ATS to access the
physical memory; some NVIDIA GPUs in non-CXL configuration also support ATS
on a bypassed RID.
Provide a helper function to detect CXL.cache capability and scan through a
device ID list.
As the initial use case, call the helper in ARM SMMUv3 driver and adapt the
driver accordingly with a per-device ats_always_on flag.
