Why expand it? Because devices hanging off of PCIe root ports are not the only ones that may need DMA protection. There may be internal PCI devices (that don't hang off a PCIe root port) that may need DMA protection. Examples include internal network controllers that may offer an attack surface by handling network data or running vendor firmware. > > And what driver/device is going to use this? This is already used by PCI subsystem to enforce stricter ACS settings, and IOMMU drivers to enforce stricter IOMMU settings. Thanks & Best Regards, Rajat > > thanks, > > greg k-h
