[PATCH v2 0/2] vfio: blacklist legacy virtio devices

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

 



Legacy virtio devices always bypassed an IOMMU, so using them with vfio was
never safe.  This adds a quirk detecting these and disabling VFIO unless the
noiommu mode is used.  At the moment, this only applies to virtio-pci devices.

The patch might make sense on stable as well.

  vfio: report group noiommu status
  vfio: add virtio pci quirk
