On a HP system with Intel Corporation 82599 ethernet adapter, when kernel crashed and the kdump kernel boots with intel_iommu=on, there may be some unexpected DMA requests on this adapter, which will cause DMA Remapping faults like: dmar: DRHD: handling fault status reg 102 dmar: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [41:00.0] fault addr fff81000 DMAR:[fault reason 01] Present bit in root entry is clear Analysis for this bug: The present bit is set in this function: static struct context_entry * device_to_context_entry( struct intel_iommu *iommu, u8 bus, u8 devfn) { ...... set_root_present(root); ...... } Calling tree: ixgbe_open ixgbe_setup_tx_resources intel_alloc_coherent __intel_map_single domain_context_mapping domain_context_mapping_one device_to_context_entry This means, the present bit in root entry will not be set until the device driver is loaded. But in the kdump kernel, some hardware device does not know the OS is the second kernel and the drivers should be loaded again, this causes there are some unexpected DMA requsts on this device when it has not been initialized, and then the DMA Remapping errors come. To fix this DMAR fault, we need to reset the bus that this device on. Reset the device itself does not work.
