That is why we have the if (xen_domain) return true; in > vring_use_dma_api. VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM makes guest always use DMA ops. Xen hack predates VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM so it *also* forces DMA ops even if VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM is clear. Unfortunately as a result Xen never got around to properly setting VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM. I would like to make Xen do what everyone else is doing which is just set VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM and then put platform specific hacks inside DMA API. Then we can think about deprecating the Xen hack in a distance future, or hiding it behind a static branch, or something like this. > You might have noticed that I missed one possible case above: Xen/ARM > DomU :-) > > Xen/ARM domUs don't need swiotlb_xen, it is not even initialized.
