virt-host-validate should print "Checking for device assignment IOMMU support" for all architectures, not only for Intel / AMD. This is the output without the patch: ``` [fidencio@dentola libvirt]$ virt-host-validate QEMU: comprobando if device /dev/kvm exists : PASA QEMU: comprobando if device /dev/kvm is accessible : PASA QEMU: comprobando if device /dev/vhost-net exists : PASA QEMU: comprobando if device /dev/net/tun exists : PASA QEMU: comprobando for cgroup 'cpu' controller support : PASA QEMU: comprobando for cgroup 'cpuacct' controller support : PASA QEMU: comprobando for cgroup 'cpuset' controller support : PASA QEMU: comprobando for cgroup 'memory' controller support : PASA QEMU: comprobando for cgroup 'devices' controller support : ADVERTENCIA (Enable 'devices' in kernel Kconfig file or mount/enable cgroup controller in your system) QEMU: comprobando for cgroup 'blkio' controller support : PASA ADVERTENCIA (Unknown if this platform has IOMMU support) QEMU: comprobando for secure guest support : ADVERTENCIA (Unknown if this platform has Secure Guest support) ``` This is the output with the patch: ``` [fidencio@dentola libvirt]$ ./build/tools/virt-host-validate QEMU: Checking if device /dev/kvm exists : PASS QEMU: Checking if device /dev/kvm is accessible : PASS QEMU: Checking if device /dev/vhost-net exists : PASS QEMU: Checking if device /dev/net/tun exists : PASS QEMU: Checking for cgroup 'cpu' controller support : PASS QEMU: Checking for cgroup 'cpuacct' controller support : PASS QEMU: Checking for cgroup 'cpuset' controller support : PASS QEMU: Checking for cgroup 'memory' controller support : PASS QEMU: Checking for cgroup 'devices' controller support : WARN (Enable 'devices' in kernel Kconfig file or mount/enable cgroup controller in your system) QEMU: Checking for cgroup 'blkio' controller support : PASS QEMU: Checking for device assignment IOMMU support : WARN (Unknown if this platform has IOMMU support) QEMU: Checking for secure guest support : WARN (Unknown if this platform has Secure Guest support) ``` Signed-off-by: Fabiano Fidêncio <fabiano@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- This is a follow-up on https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2021-June/msg00190.html --- tools/virt-host-validate-common.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/virt-host-validate-common.c b/tools/virt-host-validate-common.c index 9412bb7514..ee22a88b31 100644 --- a/tools/virt-host-validate-common.c +++ b/tools/virt-host-validate-common.c @@ -335,6 +335,8 @@ int virHostValidateIOMMU(const char *hvname, struct dirent *dent; int rc; + virHostMsgCheck(hvname, "%s", _("for device assignment IOMMU support")); + flags = virHostValidateGetCPUFlags(); if (flags && virBitmapIsBitSet(flags, VIR_HOST_VALIDATE_CPU_FLAG_VMX)) @@ -345,7 +347,6 @@ int virHostValidateIOMMU(const char *hvname, virBitmapFree(flags); if (isIntel) { - virHostMsgCheck(hvname, "%s", _("for device assignment IOMMU support")); if (access("/sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DMAR", F_OK) == 0) { virHostMsgPass(); bootarg = "intel_iommu=on"; @@ -357,7 +358,6 @@ int virHostValidateIOMMU(const char *hvname, return VIR_HOST_VALIDATE_FAILURE(level); } } else if (isAMD) { - virHostMsgCheck(hvname, "%s", _("for device assignment IOMMU support")); if (access("/sys/firmware/acpi/tables/IVRS", F_OK) == 0) { virHostMsgPass(); bootarg = "iommu=pt iommu=1"; -- 2.31.1
