Subject: FAILED: patch "[PATCH] iommu/amd: Skip non-IVMD entries when parsing IVRS memory definitions" failed to apply to 5.15-stable tree
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 20:24:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109202457-failed-5.15-e62df37e0eff@kernel.org> (raw)

The patch below does not apply to the 5.15-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm
tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit
id to <stable@vger.kernel.org>.

To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands:

git fetch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/ linux-5.15.y
git checkout FETCH_HEAD
git cherry-pick -x e62df37e0eff4d670e78bbd415be2c1675883c15
# <resolve conflicts, build, test, etc.>
git commit -s
git send-email --to '<stable@vger.kernel.org>' --in-reply-to '20261109202457-failed-5.15-e62df37e0eff@kernel.org' --subject-prefix 'PATCH 5.15.y' 'HEAD^..'

Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] iommu/amd: Skip non-IVMD entries when parsing IVRS memory
 definitions

init_memory_definitions() walks every top-level subtable including the
IVHD blocks (type 0x10/0x11/0x40) in the IVRS ACPI table. It interprets
each one as a 'struct ivmd_header', solely on m->flags, without first
checking that the subtable's type actually is one of the IVMD types
(ACPI_IVMD_TYPE, ACPI_IVMD_TYPE_ALL, ACPI_IVMD_TYPE_RANGE).

    if (m->flags & (IVMD_FLAG_UNITY_MAP | IVMD_FLAG_EXCL_RANGE))
            init_unity_map_range(m, table);

IVMD_FLAG_UNITY_MAP (0x01) occupies the same bit position as the IVHD
flags field's HtTunEn bit. Unlike real hardware, QEMU's AMD IOMMU
emulation sets HtTunEn unconditionally (flags=0xD1 for type 0x10,
0x11 for type 0x11), so every QEMU-emitted IVHD block is misidentified
as a unity-map/exclusion-range IVMD entry, which subsequently results
in the creation of a bogus pci segment. Eg:

    AMD-Vi: PCI segment : 0x4000, last bdf : 0x0000

Fix by checking the subtable's type before treating it as IVMD.

Fixes: be2a022c0dd0 ("x86, AMD IOMMU: add functions to parse IOMMU memory mapping requirements for devices")
