No, not at all. This patch is adding support for p2pdma pages for IOMMUs
that use the dma-iommu abstraction. Other arch specific IOMMUs that
don't use the dma-iommu abstraction are left unsupported. Support would
need to be added to them, or better yet; they should be ported to dma-iommu.

Yes, you've misunderstood this. Part of this dovetails with your comment
about the documentation for PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_THRU_HOST_BRIDGE.

This does not short circuit the IOMMU in any way. THRU_HOST_BRIDGE mode
means the TLPs for this transaction will hit the CPU/HOST BRIDGE and
thus the IOMMU has to be involved. In this case the IOMMU is programmed
with the physical address of the memory (which is normal) and everything
works.

One could argue the PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR is short circuiting the
IOMMU by using PCI bus address in the DMA transaction. But this requires
the user to do special setup with the ACS bits ahead of time (not part
of this series).

For the user to use the BUS_ADDR with an IOMMU, they need to
specifically disable the ACS redirect bits on specific PCI switch bridge
ports using a kernel command line option. When they do this, the IOMMU
code will put those devices in the same IOMMU group thus making it
impossible for the user to use devices that can do P2PDMA transactions
together in different security domains.

This was all hashed out in the original P2PDMA patchset and does make sense.

> overall, fiddling with the generic dma-iommu code instead of using a dma-ops-based, p2pdma function that has it carved out and separated/refactored out to be cleaner seems less complicated, but I'm guessing you tried that and it was too complicated to do?

I don't think you've understood this code correctly. What it does can't
be done in the dma-ops.

All this flag is saying is that iommu_dma_map_sg() has support for
handling P2PDMA pages. Yes this is a const. The point is to reject it
for map_sg implementations that have not done the above work (ie.
arm_iommu_map_sg).

Hopefully, more of the arch-specific implementations will convert to the
generic dma-iommu code in time but those that don't simply won't support
P2PDMA until they do (or add their own support).
