and now you only need to line up snp_rmptable_init() after IOMMU init
instead of having it be a fs_initcall which happens right after
pci_subsys_init() so that PCI is there but at the right time when iommu
init state is at IOMMU_ENABLED but no later because then it is too late.
And there you need to test amd_iommu_snp_en which is already exported
anyway.
Ok?
No, this is not correct as this will always enable SNP support on IOMMU
even when SNP support is not supported and enabled on the platform, and
then we will do stuff like forcing IOMMU v1 pagetables which we really
don't want to do if SNP is not supported and enabled on the platform.
That's what snp_rmptable_init() calling amd_iommu_snp_enable() ensures
that SNP on IOMMU is *only* enabled when platform/arch support for it is
detected and enabled.
And isn't IOMMU driver always going to be built-in and isn't it part of
the platform support (not arch code, but surely platform specific code)?
(IOMMU enablement is requirement for SNP).
