Subject: [RFC 1/2] vfio/pci: keep the prefetchable attribute of a BAR region in VMA
Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2021 11:29:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210429162906.32742-2-sdonthineni@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210429162906.32742-1-sdonthineni@nvidia.com>

For pass-through device assignment, the ARM64 KVM hypervisor retrieves
the memory region properties physical address, size, and whether a
region backed with struct page or not from VMA. The prefetchable
attribute of a BAR region isn't visible to KVM to make an optimal
decision for stage2 attributes.

This patch updates vma->vm_page_prot and maps with write-combine
attribute if the associated BAR is prefetchable. For ARM64
pgprot_writecombine() is mapped to memory-type MT_NORMAL_NC which
has no side effects on reads and multiple writes can be combined.
