Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] Allow ATS to be always on for certain ATS-capable devices
Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2026 15:41:14 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1772833963.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 require 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 pre-CXL NVIDIA GPUs also require the ATS to be always
on even when their RIDs are IOMMU bypassed.

Provide a helper function to detect CXL.cache capability and scan through a
pre-CXL 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.
