Subject: RE: [RFC PATCH v6 04/20] iommu/arm-smmu: add capability IOMMU_CAP_INTR_REMAP
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2014 18:08:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9353770066894e85809e1e443b71d1cd@BY2PR07MB203.namprd07.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140616153832.GC31771@8bytes.org>

Forgive me if this discussion is not relative here, but I thought it is.  

How is VFIO restricting devices from writing  to MSI/MSI-X,
Is all the vector area is mapped by VFIO to trap the accesses.  I am asking this because we might need to emulate ITS somewhere either in KVM or VFIO to provide direct access to devices.
And I don't see any mentions on that.   I think this flag needs to be set by ITS emulation.

Regards,
Tirumalesh.

Right, that this is part of IOMMU code has more or less historic reasons on x86. Interrupt remapping is purely implemented in the IOMMU there, so on ARM some clue-code between interrupt controler and smmu is needed.
