[PATCH] intel-iommu: Work around yet another BIOS bug

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

 



Yet another reason why trusting this stuff to the BIOS was a bad idea.

There now seem to be a bunch of BIOSes which report an IOMMU at a
physical address which just returns all ones. (Perhaps only when VT-d is
actually _disabled_ in the BIOS?)

Well done, Dell and HP -- although I didn't think it was possible, you
have _further_ lowered my already-unprintable opinion of closed source
BIOSes and BIOS engineers.

This patch makes the kernel detect this particularly brokenness and
abort early -- and fixes up the missing iounmap in the error paths which
I noticed while I was poking at it.

This should fix kernel.org bug #14003, which was being called a
'regression' -- I think because the IOMMU code used to trip over
_another_ BIOS bug earlier than this one, and that one _did_ cause it to
abort.
