Sorry. The boot failure is not related with these patches and the issue
has been fixed in the latest upstream code.

There is a performance bottleneck due to io tlb mem's spin lock during
performance test. All devices'io queues uses same io tlb mem entry
and the spin lock of io tlb mem introduce overheads. There is a fix patch
from Andi Kleen in the github. Could you have a look?

Please post these things to the list.

But I suspect the right answer for the "secure" hypervisor case is to
use the per-device swiotlb regions that we've recently added.

Thanks for your comment. That means we need to expose an swiotlb_device_init() interface to allocate bounce buffer and initialize
io tlb mem entry. DMA API Current  rmem_swiotlb_device_init() only works
for platform with device tree. The new API should be called in the bus
driver or new DMA API. Could you check whether this is a right way before we start the work.

Thanks.
