The documentation for the iommu_inclusive_mapping Xen command line option
states:
"Use this to work around firmware issues providing incorrect RMRR entries"
Unfortunately this workaround does not function correctly if the dom0-strict
iommu option is also specified.
The documentation goes on to say:
"Rather than only mapping RAM pages for IOMMU accesses for Dom0, with this
option all pages up to 4GB, not marked as unusable in the E820 table, will
get a mapping established."
This patch modifies the VT-d hardware domain initialization code such that
the workaround will continue to function in dom0-strict mode, by mapping
all pages not marked as unusable *unless* they are RAM pages not assigned
to dom0.
NOTE: This patch modifies the test in drivers/passthrough/vtd/iommu.c from
need_iommu() to is_pv_domain() since dom0-strict implies need_iommu()
so we no longer want to gate invocation of vtd_set_hwdom_mapping()
on that.
It also exports the iommu_dom0_strict flag so that the implementation
of vtd_set_hwdom_mapping() can test it explicitly. It would be
possible to test need_iommu() instead, but it is more illustrative
to test the original flag rather than one of its side-effects.
