[PATCH 2/4] iommu/vt-d: Force IOMMU on for platform opt in hint

From: Mika Westerberg
Date: Mon Nov 12 2018 - 11:06:37 EST


From: Lu Baolu <baolu.lu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Intel VT-d spec added a new DMA_CTRL_PLATFORM_OPT_IN_FLAG flag
in DMAR ACPI table for BIOS to report compliance about platform
initiated DMA restricted to RMRR ranges when transferring control
to the OS. The OS treats this as a hint that the IOMMU should be
enabled to prevent DMA attacks from possible malicious devices.

A use of this flag is Kernel DMA protection for Thunderbolt[1]
which in practice means that IOMMU should be enabled for PCIe
devices connected to the Thunderbolt ports. With IOMMU enabled
for these devices, all DMA operations are limited in the range
reserved for it, thus the DMA attacks are prevented. All these
devices are enumerated in the PCI/PCIe module and marked with
an is_external flag.

This forces IOMMU to be enabled if DMA_CTRL_PLATFORM_OPT_IN_FLAG
is set in DMAR ACPI table and there are PCIe devices marked as
is_external in the system. This can be turned off by adding
"intel_iommu=off" in the kernel command line, if any problems are
found.
