PCI: Add function 7 DMA alias quirk for Intel Corporation 8 Series HECI.

Intel Corporation 8 Series HECIs include support for a CRB TPM 2.0
device. When the device is enabled on the BIOS, the TPM 2.0 device is
detected but the IOMMU prevents it from being accessed.

Even on a computer with a fixed DMAR table, device initialization
fails with DMA errors:
   DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 3
   DMAR: [DMA Read NO_PASID] Request device [00:16.7] fault addr 0xdceff000 [fault reason 0x06] PTE Read access is not set
   DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
   DMAR: [DMA Write NO_PASID] Request device [00:16.7] fault addr 0xdceff000 [fault reason 0x05] PTE Write access is not set
   DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
   DMAR: [DMA Write NO_PASID] Request device [00:16.7] fault addr 0xdceff000 [fault reason 0x05] PTE Write access is not set
   tpm tpm0: Operation Timed out
   DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 3
   tpm tpm0: Operation Timed out
   tpm_crb: probe of MSFT0101:00 failed with error -62

After patching the DMAR table and adding this patch, the TPM 2.0
device is initialized correctly and no DMA errors appear. Accessing
the TPM 2.0 PCR banks also works as expected.

Francisco, is the DMAR patch *also* required?  We have several similar
quirks for devices that use unexpected function numbers, but I don't
remember any that require DMAR changes.

A kernel quirk requires no action on the part of users, so that's
easy.  But I don't think it's practical for ordinary users to extract
the DMAR, disassemble it, patch it, recompile it, and update the
initramfs as described in your blog post.

Is there a way to add a kernel quirk to accomplish the same DMAR
override?

Yes, in principle it's possible to quirk a reserved region for a particular device - like intel-iommu does for ISA bridges for instance - however figuring out exactly *where* to reserve might be a lot more tricky if it's not in a fixed place. The other possibility is to use .def_domain_type to quirk the entire device to use an identity domain - like for certain integrated GPUs - but that might depend on the scope of how much you want to trust it and whether there are also other devices in the same IOMMU group.

If anything I'm not sure that the PCI DMA alias quirk really sounds like the most correct thing to do, if the hidden function is doing its own DMA unrelated to whatever function 0 and its driver might do. If I'm understanding the situation correctly, a quirk for the ACPI TPM device in probe_acpi_namespace_devices() (assuming it doesn't have an ANDD entry already) might be more elegant (but admittedly more work).

Robin.

Since most Haswell computers supporting this do not seem to have a
valid DMAR table patching the table with an appropriate RMRR is
usually also needed. I have published a blogpost describing the
process.

This patch currently adds the alias only for function 0. Since this
is the only function I have seen provided by the HECI on actual
hardware.
