[PATCH v2 1/5] dt-bindings: virtio: Specify #iommu-cells value for a virtio-iommu

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

 



A virtio-mmio node may represent a virtio-iommu device. This is discovered
by the virtio driver at probe time, but the DMA topology isn't
discoverable and must be described by firmware. For DT the standard IOMMU
description is used, as specified in bindings/iommu/iommu.txt and
bindings/pci/pci-iommu.txt. Like many other IOMMUs, virtio-iommu
distinguishes masters by their endpoint IDs, which requires one IOMMU cell
in the "iommus" property.
