Not quite. The above would only check that a driver was bound to the
device. But if that device isn't an IOMMU then this doesn't help you.
The standard way to solve this issue is to add the IOMMU to a global
list upon registration. Typically subsystems have some way to do that
already, but it seems like IOMMU doesn't. It looks like that's one of
the side-effects of the assumption that there will always only be a
single IOMMU (per bus).
There's also no base object that IOMMU drivers implement, which is the
way it's usually done in other subsystems. The absence of that makes it
more difficult. I suspect the easiest way to do that would be to add a
new type, something like this:
struct iommu {
struct list_head list;
struct device *dev;
};
Then modify the driver to do something like this (tegra-smmu.c):
struct smmu_device {
struct iommu iommu;
...
};
...
static int tegra_smmu_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
struct smmu_device *smmu;
...
smmu->iommu.dev = &pdev->dev;
iommu_add(&smmu->iommu);
...
}
static int tegra_smmu_remove(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
struct smmu_device *smmu;
...
iommu_del(&smmu->iommu);
}
The implementation of iommu_add() and iommu_del() could be as simple as:
static DEFINE_MUTEX(iommus_lock);
static LIST_HEAD(iommus_list);
void iommu_add(struct iommu *iommu)
{
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&iommu->list);
mutex_lock(&iommus_lock);
list_add_tail(&iommu->list, &iommus_list);
mutex_unlock(&iommus_lock);
}
void iommu_del(struct iommu *iommu)
{
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&iommu->list);
mutex_lock(&iommus_lock);
list_del(&iommu->list);
mutex_unlock(&iommus_lock);
}
And then you can implement a lookup function to match an IOMMU to the
phandle, like so:
struct iommu *of_find_iommu_by_node(struct device_node *np)
{
struct iommu *iommu;
mutex_lock(&iommus_lock);
list_for_each_entry(iommu, &iommus_list, list) {
if (iommu->dev->of_node == np) {
mutex_unlock(&iommus_lock);
return iommu;
}
}
mutex_unlock(&iommus_lock);
return NULL;
}
With that you can use of_find_iommu_by_node() in the loop to check
whether an IOMMU has really been registered.
Of course that all is somewhat intrusive and Joerg might have some
objections.
