[PATCH 3/2] vfio: Provide module option to disable vfio_iommu_type1 hugepage support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a module option to vfio_iommu_type1 to disable IOMMU hugepage
support.  This causes iommu_map to only be called with single page
mappings, disabling the IOMMU driver's ability to use hugepages.
This option can be enabled by loading vfio_iommu_type1 with
disable_hugepages=1 or dynamically through sysfs.  If enabled
dynamically, only new mappings are restricted.

As suggested by Konrad.  This is cleaner to add as a follow-on
