On AMD the cache is flushed during iommu_ops::map only if the there are page table pages to free (if we're allocating a large page and freeing the sub pages), right? I guess this is a bug in the AMD iommu driver, as you said, it should be handled in iommu_map(). I'll submit another patch to flush the np cache on a call to amd iommu_ops::map if amd_iommu_np_cache is set. >What might be >worthwhile, though, is seeing if there's scope to refactor those drivers >to push some of it into an iommu_ops::iotlb_sync_map callback to >optimise the flushing for multi-page mappings. I am working on a different patch series to improve the flushing and page table page freeing for both amd and intel On Tue, Apr 16, 2019 at 3:01 PM Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@xxxxxxx> wrote: > > On 11/04/2019 19:47, Tom Murphy wrote: > > Both the AMD and Intel drivers can cache not present IOTLB entries.
