Hopefully this will all be addressed when the IORT parts of ACPI have settled down (the current proposal allows for these attributes to be described as well as their interaction with things like IOMMUs). In the meantime, are you falling back to non-coherent DMA? If so, what attributes have you settled on? We need to be really careful not to corrupt data during cache invalidatation when mapping a non-coherent buffer for the CPU.
