Re: [PATCH v15 06/12] swiotlb: Use is_swiotlb_force_bounce for swiotlb data bouncing



Hi Nathan,

I may have just spotted something in these logs...

So at this point, the AMD IOMMU driver does:

        swiotlb        = (iommu_default_passthrough() || sme_me_mask) ? 1 : 0;

where 'swiotlb' is a global variable indicating whether or not swiotlb
is in use. It's picked up a bit later on by pci_swiotlb_late_init(), which
will call swiotlb_exit() if 'swiotlb' is false.

Now, that used to work fine, because swiotlb_exit() clears
'io_tlb_default_mem' to NULL, but now with the restricted DMA changes, I
think that all the devices which have successfully probed beforehand will
have stale pointers to the freed structure in their 'dev->dma_io_tlb_mem'
field.
